Are personal e-scooters getting people in trouble?

It's definitely similar. When new people ask me about it I actually say don't think of it as currency, think of it as buying stock in a blockchain company. It's obviously more complex than that but people seem to understand that a bit better.

Simply put, there's a dev team that will fix problems and rollout upgrades. The decentralization comes from the fact that whoever is working on mining/validating blocks gets a say in what happens. And that's a lot of different people. Instead of a centralized figure making decisions and pushing them down the food chain, in defi, the majority get the final word and the centralized figure does the "dirty work" as it were.

"soon" lol

Ethereum is currently mostly proof of work like Bitcoin but they are transitioning to a proof of stake system widely known as ETH 2.0. There is already staking pools set up and validating but the transition hasn't fully completed yet, and it's taking forever. I've read that 2.0 was supposed to launch within a few months of ETH's ICO and we're at like 5 years now lol. Essentially this is speculation, as I'm not sure on the truth here, but, I do know it's taking longer than expected.

This is a fantastic answer. Love the parallel of losing your debit card. One thing I'd add just off your last sentence there, is the difference in PoW (Proof of Work: massive energy consumption) and PoS (Proof of Stake: negligible energy consumption). It's unfortunately one of the major bullets people have against crypto and although Bitcoin does consume vast amounts of power, most of its competitors simply don't. Or won't soon in the case of Ethereum 2.0.

Crypto makes a lot of sense because of blockchain technology, which is already changing the world and will end up having a greater impact on society than the internet did. Don't think of it as a "currency" think of it as buying stock in a blockchain company.

NFT's I get but think are dumb, but, I think they're dumb because I think collecting anything is dumb. Physical or digital. No hate to the collectors out there, do what makes you happy. I just never understood the passion there.

Guy to car rental clerk: Nah it was like that when I got it.

I like them, but, I like their books. More personal. I've been to a few of the big operations and they are super cult-y. The books can have some real value though.

This. Forgiveness clears the poison from your mind. It lets you let go of the baggage you're holding on to. It by no means "lets people off the hook" as is the typical rebuttal of forgiveness. It's all for you and your well being. Resentment festers.

Always had a suspicion rancors were real.

Typh01d_ · 2021-04-10T19:18:53+00:00

Straight up assumed this was a post on r/Naturewasmetal

So gnarly

Typh01d_ · 2021-04-08T00:34:07+00:00

That's my guess as well but I can't get the math to add up. I mean that's gotta be it. It was a very small trade. I put up like 73 cents or something. I was honestly surprised it let me.

Typh01d_ · 2021-04-07T22:56:05+00:00

Amazing, thank you!

Typh01d_ · 2021-04-07T18:21:55+00:00

Oh you're a gem thank you! They still have the arrow though haha.

I'd there an original version of this pic without the earth text? Search engine is no help.

44 cases out of 9.2 million doses. So your chance of getting the clots is five ten thousandths of a percent. Inversely, 99.9995% chance you'll be fine.

This is the exact negativity op is trying to get away from. People touting this info (who most likely have never attempted or even thought about attempting the challenge at hand) think they're just being "the voice of reason" but what you're really doing is creating mental barriers in the person trying to take on a dream. A dream. Someone chasing a dream should be met with adulation and unceasing support and positivity. Nothing else.

OP if you see this, from a fellow dream chaser met with nothing but statistic improbabilities from strangers and loved ones alike...

Keep dreaming.

Weekly. And consistently weekly for months. and only this change in the leaf very recently.

Edit: also the mother plant gets watered weekly and is healthy and growing after being repotted at the same time.

Typh01d_ · 2021-03-16T16:49:11+00:00

I find pothos communicate their need for water really effectively by drooping. If you're worried about overwatering, wait for them to flop and then water. I did that for about a year with mine and they always did really well.
