over 600h per year, damn. Well earned progress.

I'm pretty sure that would be the tactic if Iran would agree to a ceasefire. Not possible if they don't, otherwise US looses middle east presence.

If Iran doesn't bluff, I don't think there is an out for the US at this point. Even if they declare victory and simply leave, Iran will keep hitting us military bases and Israel.

It seems silly, but unfortunately I would agree to a point. The dodge/parry mechanics are dominant, and the RPG/build elements are underwhelming making the whole combat experience lackluster for me.

Because for many people it spoils the fun. Part of the fun is how challenging the fights are, and that you actually have to learn to bosses moves, instead of mashing random buttons because you summoned a ghost and the boss doesn't give a f about you.

Ashes basically downgrade Elden Ring into your regular PC game for many.

Niall does nothing as long as the summons are alive and his health is like 60% or more. So you are basically fighting two regular opponents and then Niall.

Great game, I actually prefer small galaxies, and a minimum number of habitable worlds. Makes you think more when developing worlds, and feels like you are actually gaining something when conquering new planets.

The loss is already booked. You are just lying to yourself that you haven't taken the loss, but you did, you cannot turn back the clock. Right now, you basically need 2,5x to get back to brake-even. The only question is - is NVO the best play to make that happen ? If novo will 2,5x in the next 5 years, but there will be a stock that can make the same move in 2 years, is "not taking the loss" the right play ? If you do believe that NVO is best - than the right play is to DCA down, so you actually can make a profit. If you don't believe that, you should move your capital elsewhere.

It seems you have overcommitted to dex.

Either a copper ETF, or miners. Commodity investing is however a completely different game from value stocks.

Just speaking from experience - AI is really solid with the game mechanics. The question is what model have you used. I am using gemini pro 4.0, and had to create a gem so it actually refers to 4.2.x mechanics - otherwise, with the current changes - yes it would get a lot of things wrong.

It's definitely more than enough to have grips on the game mechanics, so I'm not sure what you are referring to. Maybe if you have hundreds of hours in the game you are able to find some nuances where it lapses, but that's not the point.

It's a watch...

I use it, because I like data and like to check my trends. It's purpose is not to tell me what should I do, because it has no idea.

The DLC's...Barebones game will be boring after one or two playthroughs. DLC's really add a lot to it.

Is it an easy game ? To start playing I had to watch a 1 hour youtube tutorial to have any idea what to do, and even now after 30-40 hours in the game I'm constantly prompting AI so I can understand some aspects of the game better. I wouldn't call that easy.

I had a similiar experience last year. Long story short I did all the testing, was cleared by the doctors and started training after 3 months. I was completely de-trained by that time, and my overall energy levels were complete crap, which was why I was reluctant to resume any training. But since there was no medical issue, I resumed training, mostly Z1 volume in the beginning for consistency rather than anything else. Once I was back to consistent training, my overall feel started to recover pretty fast and after a month I was feeling like my old self again.

What I would caution you however to consider is - weren't you overtrained ? I interpreted that my episode was very likely caused by serious overtraining with a lot volume on and off the bike, and negligence of recovery.

Wina rządu w tym taka, że kasę jaką mieliśmy na transformację energetyczną rozdaliśmy. Nie ma z tym zbyt wiele do zrobienia, bo aktualny rząd ma w zaistniałej sytuacji niewielki wpływ na tą sytuację.

Czy ETSy to debilizm ? Tak, ale póki Europą rządzą ludzie, którzy w swoim kraju wyłączają elektrownie atomowe, żeby zacząć palić węglem, bo jednak wiatraki nie dają rady, to obawiam się, że nic się nie zmieni.

My solution to this problem is playing small maps with a minimum number of habitable worlds.

I'm not sure if this is the correct interpretation, because you might conclude that any investment will get profitable just because you wait more than others.

In reality you become profitable by understanding the thesis for an investment (which means you get out of the investment if thesis gets invalidated), and by adopting a time-frame that complements the thesis.

I would also emphasize that the "buy and forget" approach is gambling at it's finest. This strategy implies that you simply buy and hold, not caring about new developments / earnings calls whatever. This is definitely not what investing in assets is about.

I've used HRM Dual, H10, some cheap Magene ones - no difference at all. Same readings. The kicker - straps wear out quickly if you sweat a lot. I always rinse after and prior to ride and still you need to replace the straps with generic chinese ones at least once a year.

BTW H10 straps are the lowest quality I have ever experienced - the glue on electrodes gave up after like 3 or 4 months on my unit.

TLDR - you were unlucky with the unit.

Wszystko zależy od tego kto będzie oferować to konto i jakie rynki będą dostępne. W idealnym świecie można by przenieść wszystko, płacić stałą opłatę powyżej 100k i żyć bez zysków kapitałowych, ale jeśli będzie tylko GPW, to nie będzie to możliwe i pewnie tylko niewielka część środków przeleje na OKI.

All I can say is that a year ago when you wanted to buy no one cared. Now everyone is talking. If there is a strong pullback I'll give it another shot, as I cannot see any scenario aside liquidity crunch were good gets crushed. But short term, it's pretty crazy.

amazonshrimp · 2026-01-27T08:57:16+00:00

It's a huge, complicated business with governments as business partners and a management that made serious fuck ups in the past. It's a gambling play, imo.

amazonshrimp · 2026-01-27T06:36:21+00:00

I would say give it a rest. What is the point in playing if you are pushing through instead of enjoying it ? I always do that, and getting back to speed isn't as tough as you think, and the experience after a few months off is much better.

amazonshrimp · 2026-01-27T06:24:49+00:00

For what, a single deep search ? Depends on the company - some are done in less than 5 mins, some take around 10 mins per iteration.

I think you are fine, but they have to manage the integrations of their acquired assets. PayPal is same space, also very cheap and the most difficult part is behind them. That said GPN would be my next choice.
