  • No, LOL.

    Yeah I’m hella depressed about how the election turned out, but I’ve slept on it and realized this: at the end of the day, I still have my 65" OLED with a 7.1.4 Atmos setup, $12,000 massage chair, $4000 gaming PC with a 4090, 2 sports cars, $1800 phone and a $350k condo. Two years ago I didn’t have any of that shit, and I’d be homeless at this point had I listened to you “pOnZi ScHeMe” morons. Again, bitcoin saved my life, in more ways than one.

    So no, I’m not selling. Even if I lose it all at this point, I already won. Yes I’m being an asshole but I don’t care anymore. I’m sick and tired of the crypto hate on this platform. Not my fault you sold at $10k back in 2018. You people will never let that go. Bitcoin is here to stay; it’s currently one of the most valuable assets in the world.

    Acquiring currency is the most important thing you can do now, especially now that we’re living in a fascist state. Get over yourself already, accept reality, and start building that generational wealth now while it’s still early. This is only the beginning.











  • Because it’s way too easy to accidently bump into your mouse or keyboard and un-intentionally wake your machine. I disabled that shit cause I was tired of my PC constantly waking on the rare occasion I put it to sleep.

    And like I said elsewhere in this thread, my PC uses 5w when asleep, and 0w when off. 5w is not a lot, but multiply that by the billions of PCs that are out there and it adds up. A modern machine with an NVME SSD takes less than 10 seconds to boot anyway, so there’s really no point in using sleep unless you just like destroying the environment and paying an extra $12/year in electricity for no reason.



  • I’m not an Apple fanboy, nor have I ever purchased one of their products (and I don’t plan to), but I’m actually fine with this because there are lots of USB-C mice and keyboards on the market these days in every price range. At the very most, you might have to buy a different cable because the ones I’ve bought tend to come with USB-C to USB-A cables instead of C to C. But eventually that will change as USB-A is inevitably phased out.



  • Speak for yourself. Personally I turned $12K into $36K when the US government allowed bitcoin to be traded on the stock market as an ETF. Yet everyone here keeps trying to tell me that it’s a scam. Which is weird, because I bought a car, an OLED TV, and built a $4000 gaming machine with my “fake internet money”, as everyone here likes to call it.

    All this stuff I bought with my earnings seems real to me. But hey, keep downvoting and calling me an idiot, like you always do, when I bring up the point that not everyone is stupid enough to lose money with crypto.


  • Can agree. I used to think I was savvy enough to avoid getting scammed, until I followed a link that a person who was pretending to be a mechanic gave me to purchase parts for my car. I ended up spending $1300 on parts that didn’t exist.

    Long story short, I eventually got my money back after arguing with my bank’s fraud department for several months. I wish I could afford a lawyer so I could sue this guy for pain and suffering + the thousands I spent in Uber/Lyft/Waymo getting to work while I didn’t have a car.
