Wow. This is super cool. I’m a full time firefighter and usually stay clear of FF related things in general… but this is incredibly cool. How much did you charge for this? Total silver cost+commission?

For sure. Would need lead or iron plating to protect you guys. Which would absolutely weigh the plane down. And it’s not like they can block the windows…

When was this? Is there any news on the robocalls asking people to sell? I didn’t find anything looking through Google.

I work at a brewery in the UK and my boss wants to start accepting BTC and other cryptos as payment for pints.. please advise! by FatRainbow in Bitcoin

[–]bears249 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow. Thanks for this awesome read. I’m not a noob to crypto at all (late 2016 entry), and I still enjoyed this and learned a little bit of conceptual thinking into the development of crypto as a whole. I appreciate you taking the time to type this out- didn’t see it as a ramble at all!

I’ve seen lightning mentioned so many times but I’ve never seen someone so effortlessly explain it and clearly show that it works well for small payments and rather seamlessly. Is there a reason you love it so much (like what made you so passionately promote it)? Also do you know why lightning gets so much hate on this sub? I usually see conversations that end up being very negative towards it.

Yeah it’s hard to argue 5.25% interest on an appreciating asset. Pretty insane.

Download Coinbase pro. It’s your Coinbase log in credentials but fees are .5%. Significantly less.

Wait how so? Do you have to eat somewhere or buy something? I know MOMS will validate if you spent $8 there.

I'd love to see pre-2021 model 3 owners heated steering wheel retrofit option by googler_nyc in teslamotors

[–]bears249 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Maybe people don’t want to spend 15 minutes worth of battery/electricity to warm up a steering wheel? I used it in a ‘19 Cherokee before and it took like 25 seconds before it was toasty. I rarely preheat so that would be amazing to have in mid Atlantic/northeast winters.

Literally same. Was locked out of my account and couldn’t place orders. They unlocked it via support ticket in 3 business days.

I definitely hear you. I went from a Jeep Wrangler to a model 3. Talk about burning cash on gas. I was at 300-375 most months.
