The only value in BTC is the value people put into it. So if you make any amount of money then that means other people are losing at least that much value. It's a Ponzi scheme.If you invest in a company, the hope is that the company can generate goods and services which create value and return profit in the form of dividends. But there are no dividends with BTC. No created value. The only value comes from suckers inflating it. And a lot of people have lost a lot of money so far.
Honestly, as someone who codes for a living, i'm really not sure it's a good idea to let go of printed currencies in favor of ubiquitous digital currencies.
I don't like systems that disenfranchise the uneducated and hopeful. I especially don't like it when those systems are sold to the uneducated as the "smart" option. Especially not when it's also a great tax on the environment. Everything about BTC is awful.Stocks and foreign exchange work on the hope that the people you're investing in are creating value. But you're not investing in anyone when you buy into BTC. You're investing into the system itself. BTC cannot create any value besides pure speculation, because it will never be usable as a stable currency. Almost every single legitimate storefront that tried BTC has backed out of doing so.Y'all are going to a casino, buying a bunch of chips, playing your hand at one of the tables, and thinking that value is created just because you personally came out ahead with the system you have. Uh, newsflash: no. That money came from everyone else who bought in and brought their chips to the table and is walking away with less.
And yet unless you're a programmer you're going to be using a third party app anyway: an online exchange, or a BitCoin exchange client.Like look. Here's an example of a website set up for the purpose of certain illegal activity (which I am in no way endorsing. Do not do this! This is for demonstrative purposes, and I did not complete the transaction). You are the first party. The website is the second party. The website is asking you to send BTC to an address of theirs, but to do so you either need your own BTC trading application or you need a third party one, because this website does not provide payment processing.So it's worse than existing digital currency because not only is it still third party, but it's completely unregulated. And people have lost their wallets all the time, for a lot of different reasons.

Imagine being an adult wearing a decade old Disney T-shirt.
We stay at California adventures every year in a suite and my bill is usually 10-12k Canadian not including flight

o i been debating this since it launched... i have a real bad fear of vines.. i just feel like they are waiting to just snatch me up. I know vines are slow, but with my luck the worlds first fast vines will grow, hence why I pay someone to do the bush/tree/vine upkeep.So with this is in mind.. should I watch Swamp Thing? I loved Titans and Doom Patrol, but i am hearing this is more horror, and since Swamp thing is a swamp monster well... i dont want to scream like a baby half the show.
my dad bought a shitton of park hopper passes in the 80s/70s to protect from inflation that we used into the 2000s
As someone who absolutely despises phrases being overused, like 'disingenuous', 'bad faith',
While I am at it I would recommend you people to read the thread: Why women criticise sexualised character designs (at the very least read the threadmarks).It provides an example similiar to my point and should be a required read for anybody curious why there is complaints about sexualized character designs. (Hint: because it affects the way some people look at women and how women are treated).
Its really only for Instagram models and people who like looking at Instagram models lol

GamingERA Digest:https://www.resetera.com/threads/recomend-me-free-games-for-pc.120364/ at a bunch of what's being recommended
Space Station 13 and Starcraft.
I got it but I'm afraid I'll be lost plot-wise without playing the first Kao The Kangaroo.
Kao is a young kangaroo living with his family in the jungle when they are one day captured by a ruthless hunter and his goons. It's up to Kao to drive the invaders from his home and save his family.The game is divided into 5 sections "worlds" each with a distinctive theme (winter, space, tropic etc.) however, the sequence of levels often makes little to no sense, for example, a battle with some kind of greek god (Zeus, probably) transitions into a level in outer space.

-Skate made me want to try out skateboarding even though I am very sure I would suck at it and would only go back home to play more Skate.-Sport games make me feel as if I should give the sport a try.-Castlevania games made me interested in the Dracula story which only lead me to read something that was written based on the rich and the poor. It also made me a fan of many horror classic movies.
I expect those types of responses in forums like Gamefaqs but on here? Why would you waste your time joining if you are not interested in discussing something deeply?
I remember playing silent hill 2, 3 and 4 back to back a few years ago. I felt genuinely mentally traumatized by that for a few days.
Jesus Christ, stop posting, benji. This spam is intolerable. Just shut the fucking fuck up for a bit.
It’s possible that I’m not actually that angry, miserable or aggressive outside of some occasional role-playing on a backwater forum, and am actually a pretty chill, considerate guy who likes fun stuff.

A friend of my girlfriend for example, is quite anti-cis male atm due to a lot of trauma from her youth, and she's going into her gender identity as a gender queer person and dealing with the usual toxic elements on and offline. We had a meal together a few months ago and she kept dropping things into conversation... like I would talk about an artist I like who happens to have strong feminist leaning and she would say something like "oh, you like her? Okay, you've scored some points", like I was being examined as a cis guy that MIGHT be some kind of ally. I had only informed my girlfriend at the time of my identity and had asked her to not say anything for the time being, so I didn't correct this when it happened. It was just difficult to deal with someone so invested in championing gender identity positivity making so many assumptions.
Also, check out ContraPoints who is a wonderful voice on gender identity, trans identity, and just being a good human.

Non-binary peoples have existed forever. This isn't some fad or craze dreamt up to make ourselves feel special. As above, this is simply language catching up with the notion that people exist whose traits and personalities cannot be so neatly categorized.

As a “working class” family we are *almost* priced out...our “budget” trip this year:8 day tickets for 5(2 adults 3 kids) - $2800Our share of the house we rented with extended fam- $700Travel expenses (18 hour drive) -$500Food, snack, souvenir, misc budget for 5 -$1200Sure you can pack sandwiches or whatever and save on the last one, but food and snacks are a big part of the Disney world experience.I mean, we love it and will continue to go, but those ticket increases hit HARD when your youngest kids age up to the point where they require tickets. It’s really the only major vacation we’ve ever done as a family, so I couldn’t tell you how it compares to other destinations.Edit: another thing, the old advice to stay off property isn’t the best anymore(unless you can rent a house with a group.). Decent off property hotels aren’t much cheaper than Disney’s cheapest on-site hotels, and require you to rent a car and pay for parking every day at the park. Not to mention many of those hotels hide resort fees and similar nonsense in the fine print, which Disney hotels don’t do.
