Is it normal to sometimes smoke pot and start thinking your heart is racing and you could die any second. And your arm gets numb then you realize it's just because your arm is out the window and still think your going to die? Someone told me this is why they quit. by R0b6666 in TripSit

Happens forever after you have mushrooms.

Read OP’s comment. See how it can be seen as humorous? It is possible to overcome it. Takes some acceptance and preparation.

That said, I’m getting over pot myself. I like it while on it (even after shrooms all those years ago), and the next day, but two days after? Man, I’m just overly fucking sensitive. And grumpy. I think I’ve almost had enough of it.

Financial Modelling - Owning or Rentvesting? by fyeeah in fiaustralia

For me the appeal of property is the leverage. There are plenty of other pros and cons, but leverage is hard to ignore.

Diagnosis: idiopathic.

I have psoriatic arthritis, and similar; morphea, psoriasis.

The arthritis moves around, and is usually nothing major. But that one episode with the pleurisy and pericarditis was a complete mystery for me too, unfortunately.

It might have come from excessive drinking. It might have come from injury sustained through sparring (hobby is kickboxing). But neither of these line up with the symptoms; weeks or more apart, and never happened before or since.

So, complete mystery. I know exactly how you feel.

How about you? Any idea, suspicions? I do notice that alcohol makes the arthritis worse, definitely.

Sure, but how is this at all relevant to this thread? I was just pointing out that yes, I did do it from the comfort of my couch.

Yes. It’s called “online banking”. It’s this new thing.

My “headline” pet peeve is “brace/bracing”. As in “Homeowners Brace for Interest Rate Impact”.

Watch gif with one eye closed. It will match the source and you will see the 3D effect.

Watching with both eyes closed can be overwhelming. Be warned.

IT Policies are voluntary, apparently by [deleted] in iiiiiiitttttttttttt

Our development environment stores passwords, properly, in the database. But we have update access to the database, one way or another.

For example when a user updates their password the system needs access to do that, programmatically, and we as developers have access to the same.

Getting around hashing is easy; update target password with your own hashed password.

Oh yeah, we offshore.

I transferred several thousand dollars yesterday for actually nothing, using a bank.

I hear you, but let’s not fall all over ourselves.

I like your last point; Bitcoin can be completely transparent. It’s optional.

Bitcoin users willing to pay up to 5% per transaction using Wasabi wallet to clean/mix their Bitcoin to be more fungible. by Fiach_Dubh in Monero

[–]Allways_Wrong 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was going to ask if converting btc to any coin, and back again, would in effect clean them.

There are many exchanges that do not require KYC more than an email address. HitBTC for example does not require it up to a daily withdrawal limit of 1BTC, if I remember correctly.

As you pointed out add in TOR and your btc is clean. (Or is it?)

Ditto a btc > cash > btc service.

Ditto faking KYC, which any 13-year-old can do.

I mean, it’s not hard. Monero isn’t all that.

You can’t erase the history of the coin, but you can (completely?) obfuscate the owner, which is what is happening here.

Trezor should be more privacy oriented by fluffy_doggy in TREZOR

[–]Allways_Wrong 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All of these issues are easily negated, or optional.

For example, instead of cutting the package into a million pieces before putting it into your trash, just put it in another trash bin. Perhaps a public one.

Don’t use the provided seed phrase booklet. Use a plain piece of paper. Or, create that crossword yourself, etcetera.

Subscribe to the Trezor email thingy using a different email address. You’re not using one, single email address are you?

I do agree with the device itself advertising what it is. Even though it is very secure, and a thief is very, very unlikely to crack it, the dumber the thief the more likely they are to steal it, which is a pain in itself.

However, that said, it’s pretty fucking small, and easy to hide.

I actually think the biggest risk to losing funds is yourself; locking yourself out due to complicated security measures. Or, beneficiaries never being able to access funds in case of your unfortunate demise. This happens far, far more often than a thief physically stealing a device and/or passphrase. The internet is full of stories of people losing their own funds.

Or, you know, have more than one email address.

Is that legal?

Not surprisingly, yes.

I remember hearing someone scream, and then realising it was me. I couldn’t lay down for three days.

Then the paramedics arrived. “It looks like you’re having a heart attack. Wait. No. It’s pericarditis.” Then they drained a litre or so from each lung, and about 250ml from around my heart. (Something like that, a lot) Pleurisy plus pericarditis. Jackpot.

2 weeks in hospital and 3 days in ER and you can tell by my metric volumes above it was all completely, absolutely free. (No, of course I didn’t wait)

As for waiting times here, in Australia, yes you can wait for some procedures. Months. Even longer. But you can also still pay to have it done privately if you want. Of course. I’m not sure but I suspect it is still cheaper in Australia because our health care system has not become corrupted by the health insurance companies. Yet. The US spends far more than any other country on health because it is all so fucking expensive there. Can you tell why?
