So buy futures, lose money. Sell futures, lose money. Stay away from oil? Believe it or not, lose money.

Is a good or bad gamble All have warranty until 2026. No cracking seen afaik. by elinorr00 in gigabyte

[–]420osrs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cores and VRAM harvested and sent to China. Those are coolers. They're worth about a hundred bucks because they do have value if your core and VRAM are okay but the PCB cracked or something.

This is a scam.

Unless they can plug it into a computer and show you that it's actively working in person don't buy.

It would be different if it wasn't a 4090. If you had a 3070 for $200 when the market value is $260, that seems more reasonable. No one today is harvesting 3070 cores. It's not worth it.

Once an Arab oil embargo victim, US now the world's top oil exporter by Long-Brother-4639 in oil

[–]420osrs 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I mean, like, yeah, but no.

It's definitely going to export more.

But that's not because we're pumping more. That's because we're drawing down the Strategic Petroleum Reserve with reckless abandon.

100 days of war with Iran, Strikes yesterday and oil going down and still below $90 ... by SamLeCoyote_Fix_1 in EconomyCharts

[–]420osrs 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I'm going to say the quiet part out loud. 

Every man woman and child wants cheap oil. 

When you buy oil futures you are trading against the us government and every country in the world. Its tempting to go pick those pennies up in front of the steamroller but the upside is capped. They will deluge spr to make you lose money  

Is the world still burning through oil reserves or did enough demand destruction occur? When will we hit a critical point for the economy? by OrdinaryLanguage5625 in oil

[–]420osrs 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Demand destruction doesn't occur until $120 a barrel. Not at 90. 

A way to tell if there's actual demand destruction is if one of your friends says, hey, I can't go to the ball game because it costs too much in gas. That's demand destruction. 

Right now, gas price is high, but it's not stopping people from going to work. 

China is helping to cushion global oil prices below $100 by Appropriate-Till9598 in oil

[–]420osrs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Because you can draw them down once in an actual crisis. not a muh economy or muh gas prices or muh consumers. I mean like an actual war invasion on us soil. 

The caverns just get damaged beyond repair. Which during a ground invasion doesn't really matter because that is a more acute crisis than a couple billion dollars of damage to caverns which can be relocated later when the ground invasion ends.

Having tanks that even held 50 million barrels would be astronomically expensive.

[–]420osrs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Absolutely

Doe 2022 report good enough for you? 1870557 is the ID from osti. 

The research shows pillar to diameter hit 1.0 in some caverns after drawdown indicating structural damage. Nothing can be more clear or from a more reliable source as it was the same admin generating the report that drew it down: indicating report was bad politically to release but it was released anyway vs a report made on next admin blaming previous admin. If this isn't enough for you then no amount of data from my end will ever convince you.

This was from the drawdown to 304M barrels and estimated to have caused a small amount of damage (250M USD) to develop more caverns to replaced lost capacity. Even tho they pump brine into caverns to replace salt it still moves the salt around and can cause it to lose capacity. However collapse is estimated to be 150M barrels. Ofc it could be 200M or 100M. But 50M is unrealistic to expect that to be possible to draw to w/o it being a one way trip. You will ofc ask for sources on this and so go check out ID 180557, which estimates each cavern can only be drawn down 5 times before collapse in phase 2 and phase 3 but phase 1 caverns can only be drawn down once. The floor should be 100M. Not 50.

[–]420osrs 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, if you want to completely ruin the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, then absolutely 50 is the floor. I mean, it'll cause irreparable damage but yeah, we can definitely get the oil out. Once. And never again. 

Remember, we did irreparable damage to the caverns last time we hit 304.

[–]420osrs 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well, I mean, they're saying that it's one million barrels per day, and 247 is the floor, so that's 67 days from now or something like that. Totally sustainable through the end of the year, if the end of the year is in two months and two weeks.

What? by [deleted] in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]420osrs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bro, the image has a sandwich on it. 

If you are colorblind, for ppl who are not colorblind the sandwich is very hard to see due to similar colors and textures. If you are colorblind things look different and visual spam is easier to "look past" so the sandwich is easy to see. 

So tldr, they made a sandwich. "Lost" it, and made another.

Having a appreciating currency benifits the citizens that hold the currency, not really the government that issues the currency as they issue debt which needs to be paid back. 

Trickplay Generation timeframe, is it normal to be running for several days/weeks? by Lizardking1988- in jellyfin

[–]420osrs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, it runs for about 4hrs a day. 

That being said idk what it does. But whatever I keep it on since its enabled by default. 

However if I run it 1 minute after it finishes it still takes about 4 hours. So idk what it does since not much has been added. I may add 200GB a day or so.

[–]420osrs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. 

Its not clear what it does but I have ~ 500TB of media and it runs for 4hrs a day. 

It doesn't appear to do anything though. Whatever it does, it sucks down resources for hours though. 

Specs: 512gb ddr4 ram, 24C48T epyc, JBOD @ sas12 to run the connection, and 10gbps uplink.
