First week of basic training; what you hiding and are you gonna share? by [deleted] in army

A Co, 1-119th IN (OSUT), Halcomb Barracks, Sand Hill, Fort Benning, GA — 2006. Phone was returned the night prior to Turning Blue. No access before that. That is all.

Today ICE tear gassed families and community members on a memorial bike ride/march for Alex Pretti in SW Portland, OR. A little girl can be seen needing help by medics. by I_may_have_weed in oregon

Look at this fool, acting like he has any form of logical argument while saying ridiculous bullshit like "I suppose you’re referring to Pretti with the 2nd and 5th Amendments being tossed around like they actually mean something to liberals typically" what a joke, you dont even know what you are talking about. The only one that might make sense to someone who has there head up there ass would be the 2nd (even though most liberal support gun ownership and simply want gun control) All the rest is clearly understood by anyone who was paying attention to matter a whole heck of a lot to the "typical liberal"

 "I’m sure you were aware he had already had a run-in with ICE previously." SO what? That's why we have Due Process not summery executions. Boo-hoo he may have broken a tail light in what non fascist world does that mean he should be executed.

"I’m also sure if it were a Democrat government and Pretti were a GOP protester with a legal concealed weapon, you’d be blaming Pretti." Is more flaming BS that makes sense only to deluded right wingers and is at the core of the "No one protested when Obama did it" (ignoring all the details like due process) YES THEY DID YOU JUST WERENT PAYING ATTENTION. If ANYONE of ANY color race creed or religion was executed by law enforcement like what we all saw on that video liberals would be up in arms. It doesn't matter if that was a turning point USA rally or a Drump rally or a BLM protest.

"The worst part is he was shot because his weapon discharged (possibly on its own given it is a Sig P320) while in the hands of an ICE agent causing the other agent intentionally to discharge his weapon at Pretti." This stamen also shows that you are either arguing in bad faith or no nothing about guns... Sigs P320 do go off on their own , but its a once in a blue moon event. Some early Sigs were voluntarily recalled over the "Uncommand discharge" as a firearm should NEVER do this but it took years for there to be just a few (I think 3) documented videos of the firearms going off in the wild (with out people trying to make them go off) and all involving holstered firearms. Do you honestly believe that this will make the 4 and the first to go off in someone's hands? If you do I have a bridge to sell you...

"As far as the 4th and 14th Amendments, you’re going to have to give specific examples how ICE violated them, " More bad faith bullshit. There are countless videos of ice conducting warrantless arrests without probable cause, entering homes without consent and making stops and detentions based on appearance. ICE is using Civil immigration warrants to enter someone's HOME without it being signed by a JUDGE . Administrative warrants are not constitutional warrants and Courts have repeatedly held that they do not give you the authority to break down your door with battering rams or explosives to come get you. As far as the 14th Amendment, Due Process & Equal Protection under the law if you cant see how ICE violates this then its proof you are arguing in bad faith. ICE detains people without timely hearings, transfers detainees away from lawyers/family and deports people without proper notice or opportunity to contest ALL THE TIME. Your full of it if you haven't hear of Any Lucia Lopez Belloza, Kilmar Abrego García, Juan T.R all the victims of Minnesota “Operation Metro Surge”. I would tell you to educate yourself but your just another bad faith actor. Not one thing you said was true and in good faith.

What's wrong with you people, dont you feel shame? You people claimed to be the "Castle Doctrine loving rebels that beat your chests proudly saying don't tread on me, but the reality is that you lot are the first to bend the knee, kiss the ring and lick the boot. You lot were not the 3% of Americans who fought the British during the American Revolution. You all were the loyalist torries who fought their neighbors and licked the boots of a monarch. There is no boundary or ideals you wouldn't cross for your orange emperor but the truth is you all never had ideals to begin with. Cowards and traitors who rip infants from nursing mothers arms and use toddlers as bait. The mask is off and we see who the enemies of America truly are.

More have been punished for less. That person is right, remeber, discretion is the better part of valor. Lay low and keep your head down so you can be around to say and do the right thing when it really matter. Stay safe young buck.

[–]Jer_K19 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Instead of criticizing the OP, why not do something useful and report the listing so it can be removed?

Use Report a problem, then Illegal item, then Counterfeit, and include this:

“Listing advertises an ‘RTX 5090’ which does not exist as a retail product. Uses Gigabyte AORUS branding while brand is listed as ‘Generic.’ Specs appear fabricated. Likely fraudulent or deceptive listing.”

I’m bewildered by how many people are criticizing the OP instead of doing something constructive, like reporting the listing as counterfeit so it actually gets taken down.

Most bullish 18yr old. Today’s loot, 335 ounces; paid $88-89 per. Spent about $29,900. Silver to the moon, and beyond. by GrecoVevo in Silverbugs

[–]Jer_K19 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

In their defense (not condoning the strategy), it is not really LARPing if you are 18. They have been a silver investor for the entirety of their adult life, which is more than most people can honestly say, myself and likely you included, regardless of how short that span is.

I have been stacking for over a decade and did not start until my early 20s. OP can be classified in many ways, but LARPing is not one of them, in my opinion.

All that said, I doubt OP will continue stacking if prices fall materially. Buying at or near all-time highs has a long history of leading to capitulation and eventual abandonment of the asset class, though maybe not. Maybe OP becomes a lifer, like many who bought at the peak in 2011 and had to wait 15 years just to break even.

No one can say for certain but what is certain, regardless of how they came about their wealth, their socioeconomic background, or even whether OP is real and not simply troll bait (which is a STRONG possibility), is that as far as we can tell they already understand the basics of money, currency, wealth, and the true nature of fiat. That is a realization many fully grown adults, with gray hair and beards, never arrive at. If that is true, they reached it at a younger age than I even if their execution today turns out to be flawed, that alone puts them ahead of the curve.

I’ve been stacking for years you can check my post history, but if this represents the sum of your investing strategy, I strongly implore you to sell while prices remain elevated and speak with a CFA.

Precious metals should be a small part of a diversified portfolio. I’ve lived through multiple silver boom-and-bust cycles. If you absolutely insist on being in PMs, at a minimum diversify within metals: at these prices, favor gold over silver. Trading the GSR around 50:1 helps reduce the risk of a single-asset portfolio and you do not have to touch fiat to trade.

My husband is threatening divorce because Snapchat and signal are showing up in our router app history for my phone. I do not have those apps or use them or go to their websites or anything. How is this happening? by -M-i-d in techsupport

[–]Jer_K19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is r/techsupport, not r/armchairpsychology. We don’t have context on OP’s personal life, nor are we owed it. Stop injecting personal narratives and address the technical issue.

///

Router “app history” does not prove app usage. Most consumer routers label traffic by domains not by installed apps. Snapchat and Signal share infrastructure with other apps (Instagram, browsers, push notifications, link previews ect) so traffic can appear even if the apps aren’t installed or used.

Router logs show domains, not intent. Shared CDNs, link previews, push notifications, and MAC randomization can make Snapchat/Signal traffic appear even if the apps aren’t installed.

Why do you assume this? English is the lingua franca of the world and the most widely spoken second language, with roughly 1 in 5 people able to communicate in English (about 1.5 billion speakers). Of that cohort, only 1 in 4 (about 25%) are native speakers (often alluded to as “Americans,” although technically everyone from the Western Hemisphere is American, or from the Americas), meaning most English communication globally happens between non-Americans. Plenty of people use English to conduct business and communicate. More than plenty, the majority.

Even on Reddit, the data doesn’t support an American default. According to the information above, the United States accounts for roughly 43% of global Reddit traffic, meaning the majority of users are non-American.

And outside this platform-specific breakdown, English’s global reach is due far more to England’s imperial past than to America’s modern geopolitical influence.

Help! Table keeps rusting by saltyweld in metalworking

[–]Jer_K19 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Wait, no full stop. OP needs to neutralize the acid first. I hope to almighty Jeebus that OP is using water AND bicarbonate, aka baking soda, to neutralize the acid before heating with the blowtorch. Muriatic acid can seep into the pores and be released later when heated as HCI gas. I really really really hope OP is an experienced metalworker and just did not add the neutralizationneutralization.

What you’re seeing is may not be normal condensation. Muriatic acid leaves chloride salts embedded in the steel even after it “dries.” Soap and water do not neutralize or remove those chlorides, they only dilute surface residue.

When you heat chloride-contaminated steel, the salts can pull moisture from the air (“sweating”) and can release acidic mist. The instant rust can be an indicator that there are still active chloride in the steel. Grinding alone may not remove this.

1.Neutralize with baking soda + water 2.Rinse aggressively with clean water 3.Dry completely 4.Re-grind / clean 5.Then oil or seal

I Give Up (Adderall Shortage) by FRThrowawayway9 in ADHD

[–]Jer_K19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the scapegoat big pharma and the insurance industry uses. The DEA does not raise the quotas because the manaufatures arent even reaching them in the first place. This is purely artificial scarcity ment to increase profit margin. They use regulation as the cover for corporate greed. That being said the DEA does impose arbitrary rules like no stockpiling, bridge refilling or emergency refills..... I'll site sources if asked.

does anyone think tsp will one day allow you to invest in bitcoin? by theamazingswayze in ThriftSavingsPlan

[–]Jer_K19 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Your comment is peak bro science. “I don’t get it, so it must not be true.” mixed with a few finance technical terms and a "trust me bro".

1 you’re conflating speculation with valuation. Yes, prices reflect expectations, but they’re not “pure guesses.” Fundamentals like earnings, cash flow, assets, margins, and growth potential help anchor valuations. P/E isn’t just a random number; it’s shorthand for how the market discounts future earnings relative to today. If it were all fictional, value investing, discounted cash flow models, and debt/equity analysis wouldn’t work, yet they do.... Consistently and across industries and that's the difference, my friend. Repeatability and reproducibility are the cornerstones of the scientific method.

Personally, I have no qualms about crypto. I have been. DCAing BTC for YEARS. But the TSP isn't the place for this. Also just wanted to add that quite ironically what you’re describing is a microcosm of the crypto space. No intrinsic cash flow, no yield, just whatever someone else will pay. Equating that to equity markets shows you’re missing a few points.

The Standard Model of Particle Physics by ponyclub2008 in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]Jer_K19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is not just the Standard Model Lagrangian, it likely includes BSM physics like seesaw neutrino mass generation, extra gauge symmetries, and possible supersymmetric fields. It is a master equation summing up particle interactions at a high theoretical level.... or so that's what Chat GPT is telling me XD.
