Bring back Chartbuddy.
It was the first thing I checked
On Wall Observer.

The important point
Of Wall Observer is not price
It's bid and ask walls.

Chartbuddy was great
For seeing the ebbs and flows
Of buy and sell walls.

With only a glance
You could see how market moves
Happened at the time.

So please Richy_T
Please do us a big favor.
Bring back Chartbuddy.

Here's from the archives...
The Silk Road bust crashing down
And back up again.

I'd recommend getting rid of some of your stuff instead (or as well). If you can't fit all of your stuff into your house, it might suggest that you have too much stuff (although I confess to having no knowledge of your personal situation). I moved abroad and then back again a long time ago and on each move I got rid of about half of my possessions. I'm by no means a minimalist but it's incredibly liberating to only possess those things which you need or which have real meaning or use value. It's crazy that the rental of storage space is a multi-billion dollar industry, fuelled mainly by people's unwillingness to part with superfluous possessions.

That's really not a bad idea. The window for cheap Soviet subs closed a long time ago, sometimes I wish I had gone in on one.....

*snort* "What???" "Sorry, just thinking. What kind of finance options do you have...."

Still, we did spend what now would be a lot of money on things. However no real regrets other than buying some gold bullion for btc to "diversify" at the 2k btc mark. Thank God I quit that job next to the coin dealer who took bitcoins or I would really be so completely fooked.

As for bargaining, I'm always cautious to do that on contractor work. I want the best job possible with no corner cutting, and I have found a fair price gets me an extra nice job that I don't have to worry about. So I might knock them down 10% or so or check to see what the profit margin is on the job. But no, I don't haggle down to the quarter, then I just get a job.

What was the saying: "Always leave a bit extra on the table. You then have a happy deal"

An indirect argument could be made: Any government, even if malevolent, likely would like some subjects to, erm, govern.

I certainly haven't spent 8000 hours on this. I hardly paid the whole thing any attention over the past year instead focusing on the likelihood that the government was full of lies and that industries like the cruise ship industry would collapse due to the whole "2 weeks to flatten the curve" being a lie. So I spent my time planning on buying a cruise ship at scrap prices.
Just like I didn't spend hours going through Bitcoin's source code even though I'm a software engineer but I know it is the solution to the horrible governments destroying government currency.
I would say it's more like 8000 hours of expertise in the government overstepping their power at every opportunity as opposed to any sort of knowledge of vaccines. I don't see how "this time they're looking out for us". If there is some evidence out there that the government has somehow suddenly become benevolent then I'm all ears.

Right, let the guy think you're an extravagant billionaire who spends 30k for a set of towels. You're guaranteed to get the guy's best offer.

Interesting. I have a 120+ year old 12*16 shed I'm putting 240@40a in tomorrow. Partially for miners, partially for heavy equipment. However I really want a garage on my driveway for the car with a lift. Getting tired of laying on my back under it, any suggestions?

Guy came by to discuss stabilizing the house foundation: $30k. I looked at him and said "so, about as much as a set of towels". (don't think I need it now, the house has not moved in 20+ years but still, good to know the cost)

^(@Elwar) let me just say that reading something on the internet does not mean that you are truly educated on a particular topic.
It could be, but show me your 8000 expertise hours and I will show you mine.
Usually, I stay away from commenting on the details of the topics where I know little about.
For example, electrical engineering, networking, computer science, etc.
Having said that, I know biology (mol biology, genetics, immunology, etc).
From this perspective, mRNA (more correctly modRNA) vaccines look solid.
These are not made with regular mRNA, but utilize some modified nucleosides which has at least two benefits:
1. Drastically less immune response to RNA portion
2. Increased protein production

In addition, delivery is in lipid micelles, which basically protect RNA until the cell uptake. Once RNA is in the cell, it is not exposed to the immune system.

I would have to research whether they also implemented a block for reverse transcription as it is more subtle, albeit it is more of a theoretical possibility.
Interestingly, there are articles indicating that SARS2 is sometimes integrated into genome ( a higher possibility in HIV infected people, maybe).

Both Moderna and Pfizer vaccines are not self-amplifying, but newer (in testing) vaccines are. I would prefer not to have those.

Corn go up or down?
This is a game for children.
Relax, gentlemen.

Annnnnnd it’s gone.........again 

With covid-19 town now allows 2 sheds up to 120 sq ft each. My gate will allow an 8 by 14 shed to fit in
so it is a better deal to get 8 by 14

60K gone soon
cheers to all wall observers
together we'll moon

#elonhaiku

Yaay we broke 60k (again)

Yes! next 72 are critical and if all goes well, BTC will make new ATH.

Mmmmm 6 0 k price
Bitcoin Sunday’s average.
All good all normal.

This is what I was wondering early on in this whole thing. When they roll out the vaccines how do they choose between the elite who live and the lowly scum that die. When brainstorming this with a friend we wondered if there would be separate vaccines but that would likely require too much coordination and thus leakage of information.

It doesn't really make sense to have a deadly vaccine that is given to everyone who supports the state, leaving only those that don't trust the state. So, unless Bill Gates is a closet libertarian that's been playing the long game for decades it just wouldn't work. My only thought is that they assumed that everyone would get the vaccine and they didn't consider that their propaganda wouldn't be believed. The military is going door to door in some locations vaccinating people so it makes sense that they thought that they would vaccinate everyone.

Reading more into the actual mRNA drug it appears that it may just be profit driven. Get everyone to trust the mRNA medicine which actually does have the possibility of being a miracle drug which cures disease, cancer and anything else. This makes a lot more sense. A lot of very rich and powerful have invested heavily into this technology and they need it to work. How better to prove it works than to inoculate people against a disease that kills only .002% of people (while claiming it kills billions), ramp down the PCR test threshold and voila...success! A lot of rich people get a lot richer and they can move forward with their new drug with full public confidence.

Which would mean that it really doesn't matter if you take the vaccine or not. They just need people to believe that the vaccine is what stopped COVID.

The way the propaganda was framed early on I think they had planned on having the vaccines ready last year. But they ran into trouble so this whole "pandemic" has been drawn out soooo looonggg...It feels like chatting with one of those random scammers online and you know they're a scammer but they're not getting to the "send money to me part" so you have to go through their whole game to finally get to find out what their scam is (if you're bored enough to keep talking to them). You know it's a scam, they know it's a scam but it's just taking much longer than necessary. There's really no point in calling out their scam because they have plenty of experience in scamming that they'll have an answer for anything you throw at them. So you just wait and wait, playing along. Some people got tired of playing along, protesting and such but nobody really cares. They were ready for that...calling those people extremists or whichever.

Either way, I'm glad it's finally almost over. The end goal of getting the vaccine out there is happening so they'll make their money and we can all move on with our lives.

Getting a partial coverage (from current vaccines) for future variants is a much more solid idea than hypothetical cytokine storm ramblings.
