I could see have a Geiger counter as part of a prepper kit depending on cost and how it operates.

correct and I am aware, my limit just got blasted through. when the stock drops fast the options market moves faster, so my 1.82(or whatever it was) limit got smoked when people started offloading at 1.70 instantly to jump ship as the stock fell. ive always been afraid of market limits on...

I was reminded today of the painful mixture of liquidity, spread, and poorly placed trailing stops /sad panda. story: had some SOFI June expiry $6 calls for about 1.50$. Goal was short term(1-2 weeks for me) play at any gain I could get. I was up 20%! Sweet. I’m happy. Set a trailing...

You really don’t need all of those. Most “old” or lower rank material is dirt cheap and the others you can buy with tomesstones, seals, tribal currency etc…

I was part of that discussion in the FF thread. I am playing back through all from 1 to current. I really enjoyed most so far and I’m now I am on 8 and really struggling to keep playing. The entire thing is just dumb to me, graphics style, plot, mechanics, etc. it’s just poor design that...

Where does viper fit in FF lore? To me it seems insanely similar to ninja. At least the pictomancer is a new thing like the little chick from ff4 or 5 or whatever it was

while I do like the games which require “skill”(subjective I know but bear with me a little), I think that simplicity is key for a few reasons. it does allow more ’n00bs” to participate in all but the savage mode of the game, which is fair. I know that’s an age old MMO debate but whatever. And...

I leveled all classes to 90, but really only play 1 of each type(sch, pld, brd). But still do quests and stuff for all of them and every time I switch back to one of the ones I have not played in a long time half of my skills no longer exist and are ‘Greyed out’. Not a big deal as all of them...

Any news on job changes? Is it a complete redo like they often do during expansions?

I do agree with this

Well said, though I don't think it's *bad*, or perhaps they just fixed all the crap between Korean launch and US launch? It's just "blah". A few neat ideas, fairly nice graphics, standard things you expect to find in a game or MMO, but nothing that makes it stand out. This is a clear example of...

I won't turn this in to a back and forth FFXIV debate, but I was not referencing combat specifically with my comment about FFXIV. I was trying to reference what people used to call "polish" back when WoW was new and used as the gold standard comparing new MMO's. It's the small things like how...

I used to live in gig harbor. Not sure what you are into but if it’s nature nothing beats the cascades and Olympic peninsula. I spent so much time roaming those places. Seattle itself is kind of a liberal dump and I’m not trying to turn this into a politics thread, it just is. that being...

lol, it's not that good

163 in the queue....here goes nothing! Initial thoughts(about 1-2 hour playtime): I find the graphics/art to be pleasant. Not too realistic, not too cartoony. Some beautiful landscapes and visuals but I know this piece will be subjective I didn't listen to all the dialogue and story, so I...

I will let you know later today

I read some of the posts and it's not making me excited to try it, but why is this called closed beta if it has been out so long? Release in the US or something?

Anyone joining the closed beta today? I intended to and it'd be cool to meet up with others. FYI: I have not been keeping up with this thread and I know absolutely nothing about the game, classes, etc. I will try to read some of the posts between now and the 1300PST start time though.

Good advice in general and I like the idea of a partial swing with a set of shares I just set and forget. Might even be interesting to do a 6 month comparison if I try both methods :)

Last one for today, promise. In my regular brokerage, which I take more risk and make more weekly/monthly trade(still not a day trader) I bought 10, 2024-05-17 AIRC 40 PUTS @1.79. The goal here is a quick release, hopefully by the end of the week if there is good downward movement after the...

Not trying to soap box, but I know people share things here so I might as well too. In the same retirement account I recently took a 1k share position on NANC(unusual whales). I know someone previously stated how this sucks compared to SPY and I don't argue that, however if I look at the chart...

I copied @Blazin on the FBTC purchase a while back with 2,000 shares. Anyway, as he posted previously, it is up big time. I was watching it recently and saw it swing a few times and I am specifically wondering if I should: Set a trailing stop on it to turn the jump into actual realized gains...

Seemed cheesy from that brief trailer. I’ll just rewatch Spartacus

I’m a small time player but I have been playing(with mostly success) with two new services. LevelFields and OptionsSamurai. I have two accounts. The IRA(retirement of old 401ks and technically 1 other 401k that I can’t merge yet) and on that I am insanely conservative. Details aside it’s...

I have mixed feelings about the open world play and railroad cutscene game styles. I actually like both. they each have their pros/cons for me. I typically switch them up to stay sane. Went from the assassins creed Valhalla to the requiem plague game and I enjoyed both. my ocd kills me in...

Am I looking at the right thing? I didn’t say it blows S&P out of the water and I’m not betting my life on it, but the fucker is up consistently. I am just saying, the data and history I can see shows that it is clearly a “winner” amongst the noise https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/NANC

I just looked at nanc. lol. Holy shit that thing is just nonstop up over 5 years. Almost meme level. I think I may toss a few dollars in that thing

technically taking on debt during periods of insanely high inflation/hyperinflation is good, because that debt costs less to pay back, but yes there are tons of people I know doing this in a bad way. I’ve cut back on a ton just waiting all of this out because I’m actually nervous about the next...

Since SPIR got brought up recently….. it did pullback but I managed to sell a 25$ strike CC with 4/19 expiry for about 65$(0.65). So if you do own that stock still you can sell some way OTM calls for a decent profit. I figured if it hits 25$ I’d be happy to sell, otherwise why turn that down...

If it was an arcade game, maybe Gauntlet?

I can’t speak for getting them all on one monitor, but “input director” is awesome for one mouse keyboard controlling multiple machines. Been using it for years.

I am! But only 100 shares because of the split. Cost basis around 6 something

‘like anything it could work, but dozens of startups fail…I wouldn’t feel comfortable betting my retirement on that shit. full disclosure I do sometimes do this in a non-Roth account with small amounts, 5-10k

I get the hard wallet for 1 mil+ amounts, but honestly why not sell and life a good life at that point? But a hard wallet for DCA or 10k? Just go with a long standing name like Binance or Coin(god I hate them but at least they are public traded so chances of complete fraud are lower). I mean, I...

I’m about to start interviewing as we just got our next seed round(sad panda dilution but whatever). I am guessing I’ll encounter this? Doesn’t your company have a 30-90 day no reason termination clause? I mean, these people must be caught quickly in the real world.

no disrespect, but now I know you are just spouting at the mouth. My 2nd startup is now literally a 600m/year company and one of the primary SAP creators and integration partners of sap for all of finance. The company sold for over half a billion. Our TOP sap engineers and developers made...

im not sure what you make, don’t follow forum personalities closely, but my gut tells me you have no idea how much 500k/year is. I have no idea how people make that and are not golden…. in less than 5 years I could be living off interest/dividends alone at that salary, which is why it has taken...

My first (real post college) job was 80k, as I went up I did notice my life getting much more comfortable and pleasant. I’m now 42 and I can say anything over about 150k doesn’t lure me much unless it is an insane RSU or other ownership deal. I broke whatever barrier that makes my life pleasant...

Added a kitten to the crew

I wouldn’t consider myself a full time trader, but I live in PST and eventually got used to waking up early as fuck since I work with a lot of euros. It did suck ass at first but like anything in life I got used to it, and yes it does fucking rock being done around 1500 or so! Feel like I have...
