Really enjoying the arc of this comment tree

Most curious; a hypothesis regarding a large explosion, you say? Could one perhaps refer to this concept as a … big bang theory, if you will?

Make that five.

I’ve been effusive in my regard for @[email protected]

This man brings the thunder, and I’ll fight a bitch that claims otherwise.

I see

Why, yes. Yes, we are.

My experience mirrors yours; 6 years later, still no issues. Moreover, old used laser Brother’s seem to love shittynonametoner.com cartridges as well.

In the future, kindly refrain from introducing reason to my painstakingly constructed anti-HP tirades. It throws me off stride.

We are complaining about printers now? Outstanding! I can help! I never miss the opportunity to say double-fuck Hewlett Packard/Compaq and anything they’ve ever thought about producing with the heat of a thousand suns. Two shitty orgs that geometrically devolved into quintessential, archetypal enshittification enshrined, the unequalled horrors that are HP printers and drivers.

In general, exercise in horses is the same thing as in humans - we can carry weights, even uncomfortably large weights, and as long as we’re not doing that all the time our bodies will not suffer unduely. Some of us flat shouldn’t do that, some of us absolutely live for that (hikers, runners, gym nerds, Belgians)…

Who hurt this person, besides the entire populace of Belgium, apparently?

YSK that these apparatus often have a small hole on the pointy end to through which you can thread a piece of string anchored to a handy nearby organ, all of which is accessed through the autopsy incision 😀

Ahhh yes the old backpfeifengesicht

Seconded. Inquiring minds want to know.

This type of esoterica is why I shop here.

“Type” I said.

Empathy may be beyond your grasp but you might someday reach for perspective.

Resonant post. Well done.

I hope you find contentment.

I’d upvote this post twice if I could. Thank you for my new vocabulary word. Ever so useful.

In fact, this whole exchange has brightened my whole (admittedly dull) day.

I’d really like to think these sins will not go unpunished.

With recriminations in orders of magnitude.

Go gettem boys.

Insufferable tool

Thoughtful and thought-provoking response.

I think we agree that the process will be a gradual one rather than a series of lightning strikes (although the rapid erosion of both hard and soft power, economic and otherwise, over the last few months is discouraging), and certainly as you point out, of the value of the dollar may not correlate with its supremacy as a reserve. Furthermore, precedent, most notably with the British pound’s dethroning as the world’s reserve currency, and subsequent resilience in spite of same, reinforces your point.

I would happily research any further specific suggestions you might have as far as hedging and diversification.

I don’t know why the downvote; I found your answer to be worthy of further study. On a very brief first encounter, Monero seems dauntingly complicated for a typical non-technically-oriented investor. Certainly seems to have its merits for those that do understand the finer points, but one of the oldest maxims of investing is have a full understanding of how the sausage is made.

Incidentally, for those whose assets are already well known to those in power, I think more transparent solutions might be the logical course of action.

Gold is certainly on my radar. Currently pondering the best possible avenue e.g. physical, GLD, miners, etc. and will certainly explore goldbacks. I imagine that could be a thread of its own.

Thanks for your response.

Dunno if age appropriate but I like to give knives when possible.

These are the most absurdly competent $10 tool you can buy if you can stomach the source (wally world):

I have a drawer-full and they make a great (cheap) “I was thinking of you” token.
