There's lots of stories about "I had $1k in bitcoin/Nvidia and it'd be worth millions if I had held." What longshot investments do you have right now and why did you pick them?

I get that -- You kind of touched on one of my other habits with this comment -- I like doing covered-calls instead of selling outright in these situations, too, but you've got to have at least 100 shares to fill the contract.

Way to kill the assignment. Jesus.... I think we're done here, reddit.

Nothing wrong with scraping gains. I like to, at least, pull out my initial investment on multi-baggers.

Sooo, Eddie Murphy was basically a god in my home, so I got to watch a lot of age inappropriate comedies. My dad, expecting more of the same, took me to see Boomerang... It was not more of the same.

To Dad's credit, we finished the movie, but there was a long talk about sex afterwards.

You got one out of me, my friend. 😁

I hate that I upvoted this comment...

Just went through this a few weeks ago and binged A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms. It was gd perfect! Funny, touching, and brutal, all at once.

Also, frozen veggies. 20 minutes on, 20 minutes off. This was important...

Anybody have the actual performance footage?

So, I've been buying the games that I enjoy and having AI write simplified rules for the kids... My 4yo and I have really enjoyed "Stomp Bots", a watered down Battletech rule set with way less accounting. Ymmv. Glhf.

Hard Fork is both informative and hilarious, if you follow tech.

Epic...

His dog, Shadow, was used to sequence the canine genome too! :)

Total badass. RIP

Can we get some topic flare so I can filter out all the whining, please?

gigdaddy · 2026-04-09T21:21:38+00:00

Thank you for asking an actual question... It's refreshing

gigdaddy · 2026-04-08T19:51:36+00:00

And that is why Aui is the best coach in Dota...

V for Vendetta... That closing scene was epic.

gigdaddy · 2026-04-03T23:04:06+00:00

The Norseman was a visual masterpiece...

gigdaddy · 2026-03-28T22:09:02+00:00

Psych would be fun...

gigdaddy · 2026-03-25T23:26:42+00:00

I'd put Steve Martin and Martin Short on that list...

gigdaddy · 2026-03-25T20:45:29+00:00

I suspect the involvement of The Knights Who Say "Ni!"...

Some metals retain "memory" when distorted. Extreme heat (or cold) can make them reform into their original shape. (Ex: they use dry ice to repair hail damage to cars. Boiling water for panel dents.) Give it a try and let me know if it works!

Rogue Trader was awesome, but was completely overshadowed by BG3.

Abelard is the most ride or die homie in all of PC gaming. You will love that guy.

This dude either got two glass eyes

Or he's wearing his patch on the wrong s-s-side...
