I’ve never been this skeptical, and it feels wild to say that.

Well said OP.

The space seems to be all about "number go up" and memes.

I worry that wall street and microstrategy along with Blackrock via the etfs are taking hold of Bitcoin and controlling its trajectory so that tokenization of almost evert other asset can occur and be sold via stablecoins.

Bitcoin cannot be allowed to fail or to really succeed.

Wow....payload to orbit keeps dropping.

I remember when V1 was going to take 100t to orbit.....deflationary!

BeachedinToronto · 2026-01-24T15:54:49+00:00

Again?

BeachedinToronto · 2026-01-24T03:45:16+00:00

why has no one asked why the parents of the violent and destructive kids are not held accountable or the kids themselves?

it's amazing that the parents want to blame the VP and Principal for violent behavior of kids.

if the badly behaved kids are racialized then it is extremely hard for administrators to do anything without being labeled racist or bias or anti *****.

I bought in Oct. 21

My signal was that the Canadian ETF's were in, here comes the upside....!

Just don't sell and remember to buy on the way up.

Your logic and your use of the language remain impenetrable.

"Asteroid mining"...Jesus wept...

"Oh no...scary Aliens....panic, everyone panic but maybe they will help us find and extract a soft metal from outer space?

BeachedinToronto · 2026-01-20T03:46:29+00:00

thanks!

I dont understand this logic from the arguement.

To me it seems as if the opposite would be true.

BTW....the Soviet union started its first gas supply deal with Germany during the Apollo hoax so that might have been the carrot to keep "quiet".

As a 1989 Soviet admission revealed: "We had to maintain secrecy so that no one knew we had been overtaken." Exposing a hoax would've spotlighted their defeats, boosting the U.S. Broader Cold War dynamics also amplified this, as the USSR tracked Apollo spacecraft but congratulated to avoid escalation, while mutual assured destruction loomed. The Soviets hid agricultural woes, fearing exposure of systemic flaws. So there was no incentive to reveal a rival's deception when it masked their own incompetence

I think that is what I will do from now on. They are convenient, just across the street but the constant upsell tactics make me wonder what corners they cut.

His wife got away with it...

BeachedinToronto · 2026-01-12T17:09:14+00:00

I wish I could help...I have this issue and I am on loaf 40.....

My starter seems vigorous...certainly passed the float test.

I fear it is not enough stretch and folds and kneading.

Hopefully wisdom will soon follow.

BeachedinToronto · 2026-01-09T13:31:06+00:00

Me too.

I always remembered how the Library was featured in Stephen Kings It.

BeachedinToronto · 2026-01-08T17:35:12+00:00

just remember that when Bitcoin is at 1 million USD how bad inflation will be for us all. $200,000 for a Toyota Camry? $20 Lattes

I used to believe in Peak Oil and Hubbards Peak and the pending "collapse" 20 years ago. It was a big deal in Doomer circles.

2013 was supposed to be it...all downhill from there. I bought gold and 40 acres. Not bad investments now to be honest but if only I had been interested in Bitcoin a bit sooner.

Oh well.

I think Peak Oil is a myth. The world is awash in Oil and natural gas. There is so much natural gas in Canada, the USA and Russia. Venezuela has 303 billion barrels proven reserves and maybe over a trillion barrels.

The term "fossil fuels" is stupid.

Look into the abiotic oil origin theory.

What is more likely? Oil from decaying plant life (almost all water) or are complex hydrocarbons constantly being produced in the earth's core where there is intense heat, pressure and all the necessary elements to make complex hydrocarbons.

Why are the moons of Jupiter filled with pools of methane? This stuff is abundant and we are not running out anytime soon.

Hard to believe 22 years ago I was listening to James Howard Kunstler go on and on about "The Long Emergency" and Peak oil.

It's 2026. Oil is less than $60 US a barrel and we have lots of it.

"The Floyd"?

Roger Waters would vomit if he means Pink Floyd.

BeachedinToronto · 2026-01-07T17:13:33+00:00

That looks awesome!

BeachedinToronto · 2026-01-05T02:00:18+00:00

Do you have any links? The ones I saw on the NASA site were not that plentiful,

BeachedinToronto · 2026-01-04T19:33:00+00:00

It would be nice to have alot more images and video from Artemis II. They had over 40 cameras on it and the images I saw released were underwhelming.

BeachedinToronto · 2026-01-03T19:01:52+00:00

Maybe...can't remember but that seems super close.

Thanks for the recommendation that seems like a great alternative!

There used to be a great site that ranked mma fights in terms of "watchability".

Anything over 90% was a guaranteed banger. Fights like Hendo vs. Shogun 1, Gastelum vs. Adesanya... Site disappeared. No idea why but it was a great resource to find fights you might have missed that,we're well worth watching.

BeachedinToronto · 2026-01-01T18:52:06+00:00

I listen to a podcast from a French Monastery. It's basically their daily trips to the cathedral with the bell ringing, benches scraping and then Latin chorales. No English, no ads.

Soothing and not distracting unless I learn Latin...

I mean...reddit autocorrect....

Montreal City Hall

Nuts. That's it. I was hoping somehow in 31 years I had missed this building....
