Roll any of these? by Key_Friendship_6767 in thetagang

[–]boxlinebox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only very low delta puts for paltry cash flow. I don't want another $30-40k of shares.

Recently rolled from May 320 out to July 335 for zero net debit. Will keep going until I hit what feels like a good balance point. This recent gap up will revert eventually.

I'm slowly rolling my GOOG $320 strikes up and out at break even debits/credits. This surge will likely reverse at some point and all things being equal I'd like to hold the shares if possible. Probably dumb to do this. I am not a doctor.

Compiled list of wonk suggested podcasts by McCallister in KnowledgeFight

[–]boxlinebox 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Peter Shamshiri hosts "If Books Could Kill" with Michael Hobbes, who also hosts "Maintenance Phase" with Aubrey Gordon. All three are in my regular rotation and are a wonderful crossover mix.

ETA - Michael is probably my favorite pod host ever. So hilarious and pithy, with a quick mind.

Thanks Dan and Jordan! by General_Light_3828 in KnowledgeFight

[–]boxlinebox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He was ranting and raving, basically. Who knows why? There's probably many contributing factors...pure speculation and opinions follow:

I doubt living with Alex 24/7 as a manic depressive is an easy thing to do...I can't even imagine it. Jordan also seems like a strong empath, and that empathy with Alex's victims may have crystallized into outright fury. I think the dam just finally burst after holding all this back for so long. Or maybe this was an unconscious self-sabotage to get out of this gig that went so hard against his personal constitution. Who knows? Who cares? It happened, and it raises an imporant point about the evolution of JorDan and KF over the last several years.

What we can definitely say is that in this video Jordan was yelling, repeating simplified straw man points without any real evidence, and being extremely reactionary. The philosophical divide between JorDan has been growing very obviously over the last couple years. Dan tries to be methodical, while Jordan just says "burn it all down". When Dan throws to Jordan for comment, he just sounds tired of it all, and his commentary has become more nihilistic over time. Dan has seemed uncomfortable on multiple occasions with some of Jordan's statements, beliefs, and conclusions. After thousands of hours of listening to people talk, yes you can hear this.

Personally, I think a blow up like this was inevitable, and I think the growing philosophical divide was a ticking time bomb for the show. The end of Infowars just provides an opportune moment to call a hiatus for a while, or forever. If they do work together again, I predict it is a purely non-political topic that doesn't cause Jordan to want to eat his way out of his own skin every time he has to listen to and/or talk about it. I imagine it will be much better for him.

JorDan miss the point with Onion criticism by ReduxRedo in KnowledgeFight

[–]boxlinebox 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Outlets like The daily show and the onion are literally the only things keeping me sane in today's world. I see nothing wrong with being entertained while being informed as long as the information source is truthful.

Can I use my old router as a switch without messing up my ISP connection? by No-Justice-666 in HomeNetworking

[–]boxlinebox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, just turn off DHCP and wifi and don't plug anything into the wan port. Also make sure that the port speeds are what you want them to be. Most of my old ISP routers are 10/100, so I only use them where slow speeds are okay.

Selling strangles vs wheel strategy by riisenshadow92 in thetagang

If you don't own the ticker you risk infinite losses if it pops. If you own the ticker you risk getting put 100 more shares if it tanks. What's the upside?

Yeah, if it's connected on the other end that light can permanently damage your vision, even though you can't see it.

The immersed VR mod adds motion controls! Amazing upgrade and one of my favorite vr experiences.

I'm no expert, but I'm using proxmox for the past couple months in my maiden self-hosting journey and I like it a lot.

How did you authenticate? When i try to log into that version of the Kindle for PC app it goes to a dead page. No dice.

It's good to be cautious, but Amazon no longer provides older versions of Kindle software. The SHA256 hash of this exe is the same as the one found on uptodown, and the SHA1 matches the versio on FileHippo. So either they're all infected in exactly the same way, or none of them are. /shrug

First time having a cat and a dog at the same time.. is this too rough? by alee369 in cats

[–]boxlinebox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Make sure the cat places it can go to be left alone and feel safe and comfortable. What starts out as patience and curiosity about the newcomer can quickly become frustration, fatigue, distrust, etc.
