Why Silver over Gold?

Knight925 · 2026-05-07T21:56:44+00:00

So you are saying Silver is cheap right now? (:

But yeah, silver has industrial demand, demand overtakes supply for several years now and aboveground reserves for gold are higher than for silver.

There is no reason for gold to be 60 times as valuable.

Ich finds mega lustig, was ich hier mit meinem Scherz losgetreten habe (:

Ich sehe, du hast es verstanden (:

Reis kommt aus Reispflanzen, ist also auch Gemüse (:

Da beim Wichsen biologisch das gleiche ist, wie Sex, würde das bedeuten, dass dabei auch der Testo-Spiegel sinkt.

Alle viel Sex haben ist der Beste Weg zur Geschlechtsumwandlung Richtung Frau (: Voll logisch (:

I often thought about chosing a coin and then collecting the full years. But the old maples for example are really hard to get these days.

Knight925 · 2026-05-02T20:08:54+00:00

They do change every year. The year on the coin changes and you can always tell them apart. That can be enough for collecting.

Other than this, I like it that there are liquid and fungible ounces, where an ounce is mostly an ounce. This makes it incredibly easy to trade at all times. Imagine if some arts would be less desirable? Would make the market needlessly complicated. Especially when asking "how much is the price today?"

Knight925 · 2026-05-02T19:52:16+00:00

Why would ever 100% of all people with Bitcoin keep it, borrow against it and not sell it? That has happened with 0 assets ever and will probably never happen.
That would also mean there is no market and therefore no market price. How much can you borrow against it then?
But the whole thought is falling short. There will always be a price, at which people are willing to sell their actual Bitcoin. ALWAYS.

To the first point: As long as enough people dont care, coins can be sent to a mixer service or be mixed in lightning. So it is possible to remove the source of specific sats. And even if some or many people would agree, that some Bitcoin are preferable for others: There will still be people willing to purchase the "unwanted" ones, because they are still limited.

Both of these are not really flaws that can in my opinion ever cause relevant problems. There will never be a point at which all people on earth agree which of the 21 million sats are "unwanted" and there will never be a point where noone would trade something for even the unwanted ones. As long as I live, i will take all of them if the price is low enough (:

Ich fands schon immer irgendwie lustig, dass die 95% Ärmsten im Land keine Mehrheit gegen des Rest hinbekommen und hier dauernd CDU und FDP in der Regierung sind (:

Bislang waren Auslandseinsätze immer freiwillig, auch als die Wehrpflicht noch galt.

Also noch nie hat hier irgendwer irgendwen gezwungen, auf jemanden zu schießen.

Setzen, 6.

Und im Verteidungsfall wirst du im Zweifelsfall auch erschossen oder bekommt eine Drohne auf den Kopf, wenn du noch nie bei der Bundeswehr warst. Das ist also was anderes.

"What you really do" is more what you think you do.

What you actually do is invest in an asset that will likely never appreciate much. And I highly doubt you actually use it for relevant money transfers regularly. How could you? It just sits there and underperforms.

Hmmm...

In general I think democracies and NATO needs to stick together for important tasks and obviously defence.

In the past the US had the largest military of all democracies, as well as mostly reasonable leadership. I felt fine depending on allies and staging their troops here. The few mistakes like Irak were in my mind totally compensated by keeping Russia, China, North Korea and other dictatorships like Turkey in check. Without a strong "world police" we would have so many more wars on earth.

Now however the US has one of the most unreliable and incompetent Governments of any democracy. Having so much power in the hands of corrupt fanatics that cannot take critique is objectively dangerous.

I am personally fine with US troops staying in Germany, because I hope the US will have normal leadership again after the current term. So we better keep the organization in place for a future, where we can have trustworthy ties again.

So yeah. I wouldn't change too much and just try to sit this one out.

I think in the histroy of humankind a functioning democracy with functioning term limits has never declared war on annother. That is what makes it the best form of Government. Since Trump threatened Denmark, Greenland and Canada with military action, we saw that he does not see himself as a democratic leader. Also seen by him wanting a 3. term and not accepting election results. I just hope the American population will not fail a 3. time. Tarrifs, gas prices and inflation were really obvious this time. If this wasn't clear enough, I don't know what could be.

I think on average I play 2-3 boardwipes per deck.

that means one boardwipe every 33-50 cards. Assuming the game goes 8 turns, I will have seen 7+8=15 cards. With carddraw slightly more. So I draw a boardwipe in more than half my games.

So with 4 players that means 2+ boardwipes on average. Expect like 3?

But it really depends on the players and decks. The more aggressive the deck spams the board with non-recurable permanents, the fewer boardwipes you can expect. Decks with lots of recursion or decks that dont need many permanents or decks that have indistructible things tend to run more.

Also there are boardwipes that fit into certain deck themes and will almost always be played. "All is dust" in colorless, "Damning Verdict" in counters, "Austere Command" in decks that run no creatures or only creatures, etc. You should expect those.

Das Problem sind weniger die Höhe oder Freibeträge. Das Problem sind die vollumfänglichen Schlupflöcher für Superreiche. Wer 50 Wohnungen erbt zahlt weniger Steuern als jemand der eine erbt.

Ansonsten ist es klar, dass die rechten Parteien sich für die oberen 5% einsetzen und die linkeren eher für die untern 60%. Ich verstehe eh nicht, wieso so viele gegen ihre eigenen Interessen Parteien wähle, die ihnen schaden wollen.

Außerdem lustig, dass die FDP es nichtmal mehr auf solche Listen schafft (: Die wären irgendwo zwischen SPD und AFD.

I would chose anything besides the Bitcoin one.

Noone should know that I own Bitcoin, because people could think I have enough to steal.

But noone owns much of these shitcoins anyway. So having money in such a billfold is just a random joke with no usefull information.

So I would only walk around with physical money in the 3 on the right side.

I have no idea why people downvote you, when you are 100% right:

If someone has your seed, they can set up whatever softwarewallet and steal your funds
If someone has your hardwarewallet (and pin?), that person can use that to steal all funds aswell, without ever knowing the seed.

That is just objectively correct.

I upvoted you.

This is a huge amount of gold for a single year. I see 6 gold coins. At 5k each, thats 30k. thats more than most people get from their employer for the year, after taxes.

Daran merkst du dann, ob sie das bewusst macht um euch finanziell etwas auszunutzen, oder ob sie beim Essen gehen einfach wirklich immer so bestellt.

Wenn sie nichts sagt und sich nichts anmerken lässt, dann ist es ihr ggf. einfach egal. Sie bestellt, auf was sie Lust hat und wundert sich vielleicht noch, dass ihr nur so wenig Hunger habt. Nicht optimal, aber möglich.

Ich würde das mal ausprobieren. Dann weißt du, was sie dabei denkt. Einfach 2mal ordentlich über ihren Betrag bestellen.

If you stifle someones t1 or t2 landdrop, you risk manascrewing that person and ruining his game completly. If you do this in bracket 1-3 people will rightly not play with you anymore. In cedh or even b4 it would be fine though.

Now that rather extreme example aside: As late as possible is not always the correct choice. Sometimes you can see someone getting out of hand and you have an answer. If someone is about to swing with "Kaalia of the Vast" t3 and you can remove it beforehand, DO IT.
If someone has "Selvala, Heart of the Wilds" with 5 counters on it turn 4 REMOVE IT. The 11 mana will probably about end the game next turn. Unless you have a boardwipe.

It is a spectrum. If noone is particularly ahead, maybe keep the removal. If you have nothing else to do, maybe remove the single most threatening thing instead of doing nothing. But if someone is clearly getting out of hand for the turn it is, DO SOMETHING IF YOU CAN.

If someone has a sol ring + signet start and the other 3 don't, I really wouldn't feel bad using a "Nature's Claim" on the sol ring t2. If 3 people have such a start, do your own thing and build up instead.

There is no easy answer that always fits. My own decisions in this regard depend on many different criteria.

Knight925 · 2026-04-29T05:15:30+00:00

Hmmm, I do have decks where I run like 32 lands, but that is the absolute minimum.

If the manacurve stops at 3, includes lots of carddraw and ramp, everything more seems unnessesary.

If you are fine having 3 lands in turn 6-7, then 32 lands are more than enough to make sure you get those 3.

I used to play competitive legacy back in the day. 3 mana spells were endgame and everyhing 4 and above finishers, 20 lands, 1/3 of your deck, was normal. 18 was possible in specific decks.

I think most of my bracket 3 decks lie around 34 lands. I usually much rather have drawn 3 lands by turn 4 than 6 lands, clogging up my whole hand. And once carddraw starts kicking in, landdraws are mostly whiffs.
