I'm a guy on the internet. Nothing to see here.
Yeah I've felt that way for a long time. It's done all that I need and more since about 2003.
Not in time for World Rats Day but Frank and Beans say hello.

Beans is our only adorable dumbo ear of the four boys, but out of the blue he started attacking his brothers, especially his almost twin (sans ears) Frank. When there's blood, we separate of course.
Interestingly, after introducing the new bedding they have calmed down, or maybe it was just a temporary issue. Glad to have our boys all back on one cage!
This is a fantastic creator, very happy to be supporting them on Patreon. I think this might even be hotter than the nude version.
Yes you'll fuck things up. Don't keep anything remotely important on it and screw around with it. That's how you learn. Blow your install away intentionally, try a different distribution the next time. There's a lot more variability between distros, and more customizability compared to Windows too.
If you want to learn something new and different anyway. It's definitely not like Windows except at the most surface level; you can get by in the GUI for almost everything until something goes wrong, but that's exactly when you want to have been learning cmdline stuff, so you can try to salvage it.
I was looking for a smaller (14" and not bulky) gaming Laptop, and ended up with the Lenovo Slim 7 Pro X. And I'm very happy with it; feels fairly future proof with 32GB of Ram and runs NixOS like a champ.
Only has a GTX 3050 though, so it's not for the highest end gaming, but that's never been my priority anyway, it runs BG3 quite well and that's the beefiest thing I've thrown at it.
As mentioned, Minisforum and Beelink make great APU-based Ryzen systems which are going to give a great bang-for-buck. Get them from Amazon vs their dedicated website as some folks have had shipping delqys with the OEM website. ETA Prime does great reviews on YouTube of these boxes and shows what the FPS is like on some current, a few years old, and retro games for each one.
If you want the smallest possible system, with room for one the smaller form factor discrete graphics cards I'd say the NUC 9 Extreme works very well. I have a GTX 1650 in it and it is perfectly fine.
Steam Deck with a usb c dock is also a great option.
Been quiet this week. Maybe people are watching The Highest of Stakes movie? Regardless, stick to your plan, ideally keep DCAing in.
Find a Regal theater near you to purchase your tickets for The Highest of Stakes directly.

Funny how "muh freedom" means you should be able to not wear a mask, but others should be disallowed from wearing masks, even if they have actual safety or health concerns. Very consistent.
Was hoping for something enlightening here actually related to crypto, and found a very generic analysis of US debt. What actually matters is the deficit, and we will have to see if the US ever gets back to net positive.
When the first article on the site you see is titled "Plot Against Simonyan and Sobchak's Life Confirms 'Terrorist Essence of Zelensky Regime'" and the other sources referenced have sputnik in the title, you really need to consider the biases of the source you're reading. Is it generic Russian disinformation? You decide.
I own more crypto than any other currency, that does not mean we should embrace every article which paints the dollar as facing imminent doom.
I have to say PulseChain. Richard Heart is entertaining AF and has been accused of being every bad thing imaginable, but after some fairly long delays did release his copy of the entire Ethereum blockchain.
People were (and are still) able to bridge out their copied assets if they didn't want to stick around (recently this happened with the PEPE copies and he took a big hit on the pPEPE price, when after the initial pPEPE price spike, the OG holders swapped pPEPE back for ePEPE and bridged out), but it's early enough in its life that some of these coins might eventually become meaningfully more valuable. Already some good farms to be a degen on.
Still love ETH and hold rETH and regular old ETH but PLS is fun and exciting at least for now.
Have to say I don't enjoy the black void; I miss the facade of the VCR repair shop or Plinkett's house. even if they just sit in the set dressed in their Lightning Fast shirts and talk normally. It doesn't have to be any setup, they could literally just talk about the show with all of them sitting in one of the sets but at least we could be reminded of the premise. Love those 'memberberries.
Hard to tell what's happening :) Ours are so quick we end up taking 5 blurry shots for every good one.
Do you have questions about PulseChain? Ask in the comments
Short version: Everyone who had basically any assets on Ethereum at the time of PulseChain fork (~may 2023) got a PRC20 copy of all their ERC20 tokens on PulseChain. However, because they are not backed by their Ethereum-equivalent assets, they are not worth nearly as much, but many DO have significant value!
Some early question to decide if you even care at all:
- Specific coin holders, including WBTC (currently trading for about $150), and HEX (still only about .015, but more valuable than it is on Ethereum currently!) should probably consider getting set up on PulseChain, or if you are absolutely set on bailing, swapping for an ETH-stablecoin-equivalent (e.g. 'USDC from Ethereum') and bridging them back to the ETH chain.
- If you mainly hold stablecoins (USDT,USDC,DAI) you do not need to waste your time, since PRC20s are not backed by their equivalent assets on Ethereum.
- ETH is also a special case - because it was turned into an airdrop of sorts for sacrifiers for the original PLS launch several years ago, that asset turned into equivalent PLS, meaning it is effecitvely worthless. So if you have only ETH, you also do not benefit from this at present.
- Other coins have various values on PulseX DEX .
If your asset is currently not worth much, you benefit from just keeping this information in the back of your head, as in a year or five it may become more valuable.
Anyway, if you want help claiming those assets, even if you just want to sell them and get the heck out of dodge, I am happy to advise in the comments of this post (and not in DMs, see below for why that is)
You will have to buy a miniscule amount of PLS in order to move your assets (earlier today a swap on PusleX was about 5000 PLS ($0.50), and if you decide to bridge back to Ethereum, then you will have a tiny amount of PLS to start the bridge, and then a standard (for Etherem anywya - probably between $3 and $20) on the Ethereum side to bridge the assets to Ethereum. You can probably see why PLS was created, since fees generally are a fraction of on ETH.
Folks including myself have offered this sort of help before on reddit, but this is inevitably seized on by DM scammers. You are welcome to view my reddit posting history before deciding whether to trust me. You should of course always follow standard procedures for keeping your crypto safe: never share your seed phrase or backup key with anyone, no matter who they claim to be, or what company they are affiliated with.
Thanks for reading this, and if you have questions, please just ask in the comments.
It's clear Richard is trying to pump pWBTC

I wonder what the angle is here - Are there folks who know about something as complicated as WBTC on Ethereum who haven't already formed an opinion about Pulse/HEX?
Hmm
Don't get confused about which coin you're swapping 🤔

This is probably precipitated by speculation on WETH (the PRC20) which is effecitvely the same as PLS.
I finally got to catch a show earlier in the year. Was a bit of a trek, but the venue was very fun and did not feel like a traditional arena type event (was at the MA Museum of Contemporary art, very neat).
Lineup was so fun (Flood plus some deeper cuts), though I do wonder if they really deep down believe that their fans only like Flood? They seem to joke about it a lot. Their more recent work is really fun to me, Nanobots is such a killer album, so many bangers on that one.
Especially loved hanging out after and checking out other items at the venue and the merch area. From my last concert I believe they actually get the profits from their merch, so I was happy to contribute.
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaah
Indeed, been using US Mobile for years. Wife decided she needed AT&T network and we almost lost her phone number in the process of moving it to AT&T Prepaid. Also my god the phone support on AT&T Prepaid is atrocious by comparison.
US Mobile is an absolute godsend.
Who here is from rattit?
Just sticking a welcome post in since I see a forum for my favorite pet type.
Have owned 6 of these wonderful little critters, currently in discussions with a breeder in Metro West Boston to bring some new boys home soon.
Have a wonderful day!
