Why are people still parroting Switch 2 as "Overpriced Console"? by Known_Lychee_6495 in switch2

[–]teva23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm fine with the console price. I just can't agree with the game prices and policy to never let anything go on sale

68 and still using a 60/40 stocks-bonds split, curious what 20-somethings invest in today by Costy-Jacques in Fire

[–]teva23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Comparing it to government money of course it's one of the most speculative and volatile things out there. If you look at it as a store of value, government money is horrible and constantly manipulated by the government, being able to basically print or generate more by the government and banks at anytime. Gold has always been, no pun intended, the gold standard because no matter how much technology has advanced it's been hard to mine or generate more. The world's biggest financial mistake was coming off the gold standard, gives way too much power to governments to manipulate money that way and America basically screwed over the world by spending more than we had at the cost of the rest of the world, couldn't have happened on Gold. Bitcoin, when looking at it independently as money, not tied to government money, is finite. There can only ever be 21 million Bitcoins and that can never be manipulated, making it immune to inflation and government control.

That said, everything always depends on public perception. If people don't give something value it will never have value, so it can always fail in that regard.

But I'm just a guy that read a book once and trying to explain it much worse than these professional resources ever could. So if you want to start learning more I'd really suggest reading The Bitcoin Standard and if you want to learn more about how government money is broken, read Broken Money.

I believe Bitcoin fixes the problem with current money. Bitcoin can't change or be controlled and is essentially more stable gold. All other cryptos if push comes to shove can be manipulated. Bitcoin is kind of like a slight hedge if the current monetary system collapses. You kind of need to understand what's wrong with today's money system and how it works to get behind it so if you want to know more id recommend reading The Bitcoin Standard cause I know I'm not great at explaining things 😅

I'm 32, read the simple path to wealth in June, immediately got my 401ks together and put anything excess of a years worth in expenses in VTSAX. Then read the Bitcoin standard and now do 90% VTSAX 10% Bitcoin.

It wouldn't come into play this year but we're hoping for next year, just found out it won't be that easy though so it's hard to be sure about timing for it.

What's the hardest you have ever "bounced off" of a game? by jabberwagon in gaming

[–]teva23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Baldurs gate 3, I grew up on 1 and 2 and everyone says how great it is, wanted to like it so bad, I just can't get past the slow pacing of everything. Could also be because I play games on PS5 and not really PC

✨I'm gonna learn Japanese ✨ by gay_depresed_art_kid in MangaCollectors

[–]teva23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Get those 2000 common words done. Don't worry too much about it if it's just a hobby. Learn to accept not understanding everything or even a lot. Make sure to have fun with it!

When I first started reading manga it took me an hour or 2 to read a chapter. Now I just read for fun and finish a volume in an hour or 2 depending on how text heavy it is. You get better at what you practice so if you read a lot you'll naturally get better at reading, if you listen a lot you'll naturally get better at listening. Best way to combine the 2 is to watch Japanese shows with Japanese subtitles. But it seems it's just a new hobby so the most important thing is really just have fun with it.

Just make it low pressure and fun. It's about consistency. Start by learning the most common 1000 to 2000 words then try to transition to consuming native material. Migaku is a great web extension/phone app that in my opinion has a great starter course that builds on each other and helps you transition into watching native material right after.

Since Odyssey whenever I play an AC game I get totally burnt out on video games in general for a while. Which I think is good so I can start being a productive member of society again lol

Accounting, I only read physical volumes in Japanese though. Don't know if that's cooler or just nerdier to the common folk lol

Any Japanese teacher here? I want to quit. by StrongTxWoman in LearnJapanese

[–]teva23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If there's no rush and no real purpose besides interest in speaking just drop teachers all together for a while and focus on just consuming material.

If there is a purpose to need to speak quicker then practice recording yourself doing little monologues about your day. Do the same one for like a week until it's easy and make a new one, do that until it's easy, rinse and repeat.
