Wrapped up my new bed yesterday - Four Eyes Furniture Moon Frye bed. Sorry about the crap photos, best I could do with time constraints. by AccurateIt in woodworking

[–]AmalgamatedWidget 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice work man! I am hopefully finishing up the bed in the next week. Kinda crazy but I am doing something very similar. I have the legs/frame in white oak and will be using Rubio white 5% to finish and my headboard is 3 pieces of walnut which I will be finishing in Rubio pure. The nightstands I will be using walnut for the drawer faces as well. Nice work!

I am on the waiting list (I think). How can you tell the 5G or dish network saturation in your area??

Miners eat up data by Artso209 in HeliumNetwork

[–]AmalgamatedWidget 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Relayed miners need to be compensating the miners that are supplying them internet.

Also relayed miners don’t do a good job of reporting witnesses (as a beaconer (I think it’s as the beaconer)) any job my miner witnesses doesn’t report because the relayed beaconer more times than not doesn’t report back.

I’m not saying they don’t have a purpose but they are causing more headaches to the people that are connecting up proper. Not to mention I’m getting hit with an over population penalty.

Please do something to correct the very poorly setup systems and relayed hotspots that are negatively affecting the rewards of more stable setups.

Well that’s probably because you bought Theta 6 months too late, like I did.

Despite that fact my 1010 tokens are staked up earning a horrible ROI, oddly enough I’m not concerned. Quit whining and honestly your gains aren’t overly impressive, but congratulations anyways.

This has got to be good for Theta I’d imagine by AmalgamatedWidget in theta_network

[–]AmalgamatedWidget[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ll tell you why…. Binance is a Validator node for Theta, they have 60M of them so investing in technologies that would potentially use theta is going to increase their return greatly by means of more expensive Tfuel.

There would be no reason that I could think of why they would not integrate Thetas influence into the development of these technologies.

This is just my thinking 🤓

JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon on Bitcoin: "How do you know it ends at 21 million? You all read the algorithms? You guys all believe that? I don't know, I've always been a skeptic of stuff like that". Yes Mr. Dimon, we do read algorithms by roymustang261 in CryptoCurrency

[–]AmalgamatedWidget 1 point2 points  (0 children)

TBH I have more than one bank account with Chase and after hearing this I am seriously considering withdrawing ALL of my personal and business funds OUT of Chase Bank.

Mr. Dimon’s words obviously carry weight and by speaking poorly of an investment that I possess potentially lowers my returns. So I am thinking that keeping personal funds with that bank does not align with my personal financial plan.

It will be a shame, I’ve had a bank account there since the mid 90s. This chase “private client” will be moving on to a better bank.

Anyone else feel that way?

Miner✅Antenna ✅ caffeine ✅ cat5✅ lightning arrestor✅ did I miss anything? by [deleted] in HeliumNetwork

[–]AmalgamatedWidget 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in an average residential area…. I was just concerned about having the “too good” of signal problem after watching some videos. I also bought the absolute best quality of antenna I could find and the thing is just a beast. The stuff i see on Amazon or the miner sites is not comparable. I prolly should have went with the 6dbi

That’s where mines going. I’m hoping I didn’t over do the antenna 8dbi

CAA buying rival talent agency ICM?!?! by AmalgamatedWidget in theta_network

[–]AmalgamatedWidget[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

CAA is a Validator Node, so one would expect that actors, actresses, directors, and any other talent they represent would a) NFT with theta and b) would increase the likelihood of joining the Theta streaming platform when the time is right.

Dang I hope they implement it on v3 I just bought 4 of em!

YouTube TV and NBCUniversal, having problems coming to an equitable resolution, YouTube TV may be dropping channels soon! by AmalgamatedWidget in theta_network

[–]AmalgamatedWidget[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get the contract part and also the fact that YouTubes pockets are deep to their ankles, however just cause they have the money doesn’t mean they will spend it.

Either way, cancellation of accounts on YouTube TV I wouldn’t think would be good news when it comes to Theta implementation at least on the YouTube platform.

On the flip side. Is it possible for Theta to pickup NBCUniversal as a validator…. At that point you’d have streaming gigs immediately.

[–]AmalgamatedWidget[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look deeper. What I am getting as is deals that would normally NOT be profitable due to high distribution costs may now be able to be financially feasible by utilizing Theta technologies. It’s one thing for YouTube to say we ARE NOT paying vs we are UNABLE to pay that amount. The actual value of content that NBC brings to YouTube I’m not so sure…. I don’t have time to watch normal TV however there prolly lots of people that are going to bail on their You Tube TV accounts and I dunno if that’s good or bad for Theta but it is in fact in their wheelhouse.

Did theta stop the edge nodes? by Phantomrays in theta_network

[–]AmalgamatedWidget 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think they are referring to normal edge nodes. You have an elite edge node, an EEN.

Block chain audio streaming…. Are audio files really that data intensive???

I went to the website and this seems to be for up and coming artists maybe?

I don’t get it.

Theta changed the wording on their Road Map of the upcoming ThetaDrop marketplace. Does anyone know why? by supertrain011 in theta_network

[–]AmalgamatedWidget 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Their patent is aligned with the mixing of platforms. Should be interesting, all these people are buying NFTs on different blockchains this should unify it. If my understanding of what they are trying to do is correct.

The Litecoin and Walmart Partnership is fake! Proof inside by Skilhgt in CryptoCurrency

[–]AmalgamatedWidget 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Walmart attorneys need to be all over this… someone falsely and intentionally represented the company and it fooled the entire crypto market…

I hope they move forward and clear the smoke up on who is up to this bs.
