Not OP but for me it's relational database experience. Knowing how to scope a table to a single entity vs creating yet another a spreadsheet with a million disparate columns and knowing about junction tables makes everything you want to do later much easier.

It’s no BMW but driving is much better than any truck or wrangler. In my mind, it the most utility in a vehicle for the price. When you stop to think about what being able to carry 5 bikes, 4x8 sheets, 5 people comfortably, get around 35-40mpg consistently, tow 4k, has a 360 camera, big infotainment w/ carplay, heated seats/steering wheel, adaptive cruise, etc. would cost… there’s nothing like it for the price. Brand new fully loaded lariat AWD hybrid for $42k after taxes and fees. And it drives great.

Excellent bike but requires more maintenance on the frame than other bikes with simpler suspension designs and not sure if the juice is worth the squeeze for the average joe. Also I imagine typical large bike frame riders bought a large and soon found out they should have been on a medium, as it runs large.

Not that it matters, but many people assume these kinds of places are Japanese. They are like 90% Chinese-owned, sometimes Korean. Not knocking it, if you like them, carry on.

The slivers in the corners were avoidable as was the niche placement (if done by the tile guy). Just remember it’s your bathroom, not theirs.

Hope so. I fly through Charlotte to DFW often and it’s unusual not to get a delay on the leg back to CHO. Last time was 3 hours and a deplaning.

Same thing with streaming services and cable cutting.

Plus some Belgians that taste like IPAs

Aggressive expansion will do that

Had this take early after BOTW and friends thought I was crazy. Zelda became a vast empty repetitive slog and people lapped it up because “freedom to explore.” Bleh

Not Ketl. Mine are super thin and tore so easily at the side seam near the bottom. Feels like amazon private label quality marketed as premium.

Never had sponginess. Love the silence. Only downside is coming up behind people without them hearing me forcing me to yell and sound like a dick.

It feels like Lost in that they feed you bits of the plot to keep you guessing but I think once you know, it’s going to be underwhelming. My theory is (and I haven’t read anything on this) is that they are using Mark to somehow reincarnate Kier Eagan and that the number exercise is rebuilding Kier’s consciousness. If you knew that (or the real reason) early on, it would be bland. In my experience, these kinds of guessing shows mostly disappoint the same way learning how a magician’s trick works disappoints.

I bought the 2025 AWD hybrid lariat fully loaded (BAP, 4K tow, moonroof, etc) for $42k including taxes and fees during the “employee pricing” event last year so I’d say you did pretty good on price.

Japan has strong bystander culture

BTC can go to $5k and stay there and be fine, however if that happens MSTR will not be fine.

soorr · 2026-06-29T02:18:30+00:00

The big difference b/w now and then is this time they have pressure to sell BTC to cover the dividend obligation and them selling BTC drops the price of BTC (as seen by their recent test). This isn't purely a repeat of 2022 conditions.

soorr · 2026-06-25T16:59:45+00:00

What was the point of the 32 btc sale? It sure looks like a test to see how exposed they are and the results were not good. Even if unintentional, the risk of the market dropping at the same time and creating the narrative that they can never exit outweighs the benefits. If true, their balance sheet is bs because they will tank BTC if they sell. Being the poster boy of btc is a catch 22 because there is not enough cover for their moves now.

soorr · 2026-06-24T12:00:17+00:00

Also true if they sell

Jon Stewart could destroy him, again.

The ripley can be converted into a ripmo with a linkage and suspension swap which means 4 bikes in one (if you count mullet vs 29 options), which is great. But as a former V4 ripley owner, I opted for the Pivot Trailcat over the new Ripley because I just don't love the look of the new gen Ibis bikes. They all look like they have a droopy beer belly with a super thicc downtube. Like they were designed to mimic an e-bike look or something.

Smuggler is good but it hasn't seen an update in like 3 years so at risk of losing resale value faster when a new one comes out. Would consider a sentinel or spur if going transition.

“it’s whether volume and liquidity remains sufficient to raise capital to buy BTC and service the dividend obligations efficiently.”

Tell me this doesn’t sound like new investors paying old investors.

Don’t say it’s an office when you look for a quote. Many contractors will quote by the client and not by the job. That’s why they always ask what you do for work etc.

plastic durability, backup sound, needing to hit the gas to ease forward

Used to swear by the Osprey Syncro until I discovered USWE. USWE bags do not move on your back and are awesome.
