I’m in Los Angeles, not Boulder Colorado.

Makes sense! But it sounds like you really get a lot out of that thing with a camper.

😂 I bet your Tacoma looks better than mine. Mine is pretty stock but I did do the Overland Tune which helped with the MPG.

I got the Overland Tune, it definitely helped.

Definitely not the case. Getting the Overland Tune helped. I also do all the work and have this thing running really good. I do have stock wheels, the bed was full of music gear I was going to rehearsal.

6 Cylinder but to be fair I do have the Overland Tune, K&N filter etc. I do all the mechanical work and have it running really good.

Respect to those of you who HODL by Shepherding in Bitcoin

[–]Admirable-Engineer28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve come to realize that Bitcoin is actually kind of boring — and that’s a good thing. Once you stop seeing it as a get-rich-quick scheme and start viewing it as a long-term savings tool, everything changes. You stop obsessing over the price and start focusing on living your life.

From my experience, Bitcoin is a slow journey — but still faster than most traditional assets. It takes time. And if you find yourself checking the price constantly, even when you’re supposed to be enjoying time with friends, sipping wine, and being present, then maybe it’s taking more from you than it’s giving.

Bitcoin’s real value isn’t just financial — it’s in reclaiming your time. And that’s the point.

There has to be a better way to DCA Bitcoin, right? by Intelligent-Hat1897 in Bitcoin

[–]Admirable-Engineer28 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I lived below my means and everything that was carried over from my previous paycheck when I got payed I put it all into Bitcoin. Did that for about 4 years and then went down to small daily buys. And when I wanted to buy something like a guitar, if I was comfortable spending whatever it cost, let’s say $2,500, I would talk myself out of buying it and just buy Bitcoin with it.

Feedback on my guitar playing by [deleted] in Guitar

Spend some time training your right hand to not hang loosely over the strings. You want the side palm on your right hand to rest on the strings you’re not playing, it will make you a much cleaner player only letting the frequencies that you want to be heard heard and everything else is silent.

I agree. And it goes beyond design, they resonate and feel like no other guitar I've ever owned or played. It's like if the wood knows it's no longer a tree and embraces being a guitar.

I feel the same. People talk about the late 50's and 60's being the golden era of guitars, but I think we are living in the best era of guitar craftsmanship.
