The halvening pump is over (or near enough). Time to find a new base for the 2021 bull.
Hairy our dear friend.
Mean’t to spread some hopium.
Not to cut my breath.
A nice base would be ?
Seven full hours till halving.

9mm seems the most reasonable out of the small ones, no?
I mean if you are using it for home defense or maybe self defense (or maybe wanting to be a hero in some mass shooting situation?)
Home defense = 12 gauge shotgun IMO. Handguns are too damn erratic and bullets go all sorts of places. Shotgun is a nice solid can't miss pattern, 8 buckshot pellets are devastating at close range, and if you get a semi automatic shotgun it's a point and click interface.I mean if you are using it for home defense or maybe self defense (or maybe wanting to be a hero in some mass shooting situation?)
I will ponder a 12 gauge as a supplement, but in terms of hitting a virus.. maybe a 12 gauge could hit a virus a bit better than a 9 mm, too?
this does not compute...message error...message error...
...I have to undergo an unscheduled reboot.
Cogito ergo sum
Just what do you think you are doing, Dave?

EDIT: this device calculates that we already passed Vegeta at least 20 times (if you count both directions). Hoping that 21st would be IT.
I think that talk of home defense has more to do with the macro circumstances, and could even relate to defending your bitcoins when they go shooting up in price, while the remainder of supply chains might have issues.
Of course, hopefully no one knows that you have bitcoins; however, if you are the only one on the block with full cupboards and eating steaks, then some other peeps might wonder why you are living so well, or maybe want to get some of yours.
Sure, we even saw in recent times, that sometimes the police might not be responding to certain kinds of calls, so what you going to do? You gotta at least attempt to discourage their entrance until the proper authorities might handle it, maybe it takes 12 hours or even longer, such as a few days before they show up? basic protections could come in handy... specially in 'merica.
I was thinking that a 12 gauge was a bit bulky... and does not hold very many shots... maybe 5 shells for standard, but I suppose there could be some with extended magazines, and maybe there would not be a need for more than one or two shells in terms of hitting the target.
Surely, this could be one of those "why not both" situations. I will ponder a 12 gauge as a supplement, but in terms of hitting a virus.. maybe a 12 gauge could hit a virus a bit better than a 9 mm, too?
They are a bit big but if you have a second or two to prepare 5 shots will seriously clear a room. Anything still standing after that is probably an undead monster, at which point you need the silver bullets or something. Hm. Wonder if they make silver buckshot loads....Surely, this could be one of those "why not both" situations. I will ponder a 12 gauge as a supplement, but in terms of hitting a virus.. maybe a 12 gauge could hit a virus a bit better than a 9 mm, too?
Shot won't penetrate body armor but the face will be quite unhappy even in that case. There does exist "buck and ball" shot, but I've never tried it. Then again I am (hopefully) not defending my house against elephants.
Against the virus you want birdshot.
I remember Bob had some different purchases and those may have all been handguns, and I am not sure if any of those were recent acquisitions or if someone like him would have been rethinking his own situation in recent times and changing the kinds of armor that he would have available.
Of course, if any of us has a bit of space, such as a ranch, then we might have cameras that might warn us, but then gosh bunkers or even contracting out security might be the kind of pre-citadel stage, and I suppose that I am thinking more about security through obscurity - so a bit smaller scenarios...
But if we get to certain higher levels of hookers, lambos and blow then we might have to consider BIGGER options, and maybe even contracting out some of the security, and those additional considerations .. and sometimes involving security guards can become problematic too, if they turn on you or you cannot determine if they are working with you or against you, and such largess did not work out too well for John McAfee, but then he was in another country with its own level of corruption where the whole system ended up working against him (at least from his version of events).

Crypto Long & Short: Why Bitcoin’s Big Rally Is a Sign of Its Economic Resilience
https://www.coindesk.com/bitcoin-economic-resilience
Quote
Economic growth figures are starting to trickle in, and, as expected, they’re bad. Really bad. This past week the U.S. reported Q1 GDP growth as -4.8%. Italy’s GDP fell -4.5%, Spain came in at -5.2%, and France trumped that with a whopping -5.8%. And that’s just warming up – Christine Lagarde, head of the ECB, has warned that euro-area GDP could fall by as much as 15% in Q2.
