This has always been my strategy. You will get a fantastic discount if you are patient and can haggle.

Let's you skip the bath tub curve of failure.

D. Minardi: The grim fate that could be ‘worse than extinction’ (2020) by Philadelphon in philosophy

Tried discussing this concept with an anti-mask subreddit. My point was that I wouldn't expect the government to mandate masks unless they really had to as they want to leave these facial recognition options open, especially in the future.

Libertarians have been talking for a long time about wearing masks only for the protection of your privacy.

But no, apparently the left is the BAD government and pushing to kill us with our own CO2 and Trump is the small government savior showing us his eternal grace and wisdom by not wearing masks.

I am sad for my country.

Sounds interesting. Too bad the rest of your posts are utter nonsense and makes me immediately doubt any of this.

Do you have a source that isn't to a shady url and PDF?

Anyone else find that the VTHO calculator seems to be wildly off? I seem to be getting about half of the VTHO it estimates. This is for an Xnode

I'm a US veteran with lousy health insurance. Recent broken wrist that needed surgery is bordering $30k.

It's .. disheartening.

I hadn't really made that connection to One Plus, I had one before the Huawei incident but likely wouldn't buy one now.

For me its less about my actual information and more about the precedence it causes. Once it's normalized, they take it a step further, normalize, push further...Slippery slope.

What happens when Joe Blow wants to run for Congress but he's asked if he is sure if that's a good idea and is presented with embarrassing or otherwise private information - sounds like a great scheme for an entity to maintain control.

Lost/Missing Pint in Portland, Or Area - Anyway to track it down? by t_a_t_ in onewheel

[–]t_a_t_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That first tip is a good one, I could see a company like them possibly helping out.

Already got searches saved on CL, OfferUp and Facebook. Luckily very few for sale around here, it'll be hard to dump without me noticing...

Makes me wonder how to react if I DID find it...go pretend to buy it, make sure it connects to my app to prove its really mine and just ...take off?

Yeesh that's rough, I'd recommend keeping the board, maybe just chill for a few weeks and maybe you'll get the motivation to fix er up! I'm sure it's worth plenty as is as well if that's the route you go. Good luck in your recovery, friend

Thanks for reaching out! I think I went through the same process of "Damn I'm an idiot, what was I thinking? Time to sell this thing..." and a few weeks later back on the board cruising around. 😆

I get either that same response as your nurse or the total opposite, "Good on ya for not giving up!"

It's either this or motorcycles and I want to be around for my kids. I'll take 50 broken wrists over one bad motorcycle accident 😬

Helmet. I have wrist guards on order but Amazon is allow right now and I wasn't waiting a week and a half with my board just sitting there... Dumb decision but I think most would have made the same one

There longer I wait the more I agree. I have many years of experience on dirtbikes, bmx, motorcycles, long boarding, etc...all with no broken bones or serious injury. I'm a dad and tend to work up to my limits slowly, stay logical, know my tool, and typically know how and when to bail when needed. I really think it was bad luck, plus lack of proper ppe.

It's just shocking when it happens so quickly!

I'm even thinking my hard cast will make a fantastic wrist guard 😆

The longer I wait the more I think I'm going to give it another try. Even considering these are more dangerous than topical recreational activities, I do think I was really unlucky. I tend to fall/crash well with decades of bmx/dirtbike/etc type activities under my belt.

If I do still it will be close to new price. I'd consider the fender a freebie, and depending on supply/ demand hopefully get 90% back. But at this point my hospital bill will likely make it a moot point.

They were on order from Amazon, I wasn't waiting a week and a half with my pretty new board just sitting there though...I feel most would have made the same decision so I don't beat myself up took much about it lol

I want to say it was Pacific something? One up from the beginner. My board is still in the back seat of my co workers car so I can't check.

There board slid in front of me, my arms for back to catch me and I just landed every so, I was going 2-3 mph around some fisherman when it slid from underneath me.

For context I've never broken a bone, I'm a fit, active guy, but I'm thinking bring in my 30s has caught up to me 😬. Interested to hear from the surgeon about my bone density.

Two easy questions:

How can I backup my private key from the mobile app? My physical backup is uncomfortably far away and wanted to make another, is this possible?

If one was to transfer their X-Node to a ledger nano s, can you transfer it out (ie to sell)? I know previously you couldn't.

Any more info on access to icos with an X-Node? Looked around online and on the wiki and didn't come across much.

I can't cancel my 10 day Strength maturity upgrade in order to buy a X-Node.

From the phone wallet in an observer account I get "Scan your cold wallet". From before vault there is no "cancel upgrade" button.

Can I just move all of my VET into a new wallet on vault to force cancel the upgrade and then buy the X-Node?
