    Non Fungible Token.

    You pay money to say you own a unique digital image that you can point to with a link. 

    It's kinda like buying a painting but without physical form. 

    People can make copies of it but you supposedly own the "original".

    It's 100% bullshit. It's like cryptocurrency but worse. 

    I'd agree, but one only need look at the "Carbon offset credit market:"

    Ontario got onboard with California and some other states and provinces.

    It's a complete scam, trading real money for something completely made up and of no real value.

    Something has value, IMO, if enough people agree that it does, and we were forced to agree, until Ontario bailed on it.

    Some of the scammers got rich off of it.

    If 10 people agree that dog shit is $1 a pound, then trade it amongst themselves.

    Good post, and it's not often you have one.

    It's quite accurate, but it's hardly a millennial exclusive.

    Ma and pa bought the place they are in now in the early 70's for 30K, when dad was probably making about 15k. . It's now likely 3 mill

    My place has tripled in value in 12 years, if I don't include improvements etc.

    The wage I made when I moved here in 08,  today has gone up by %50.

    It's tough to get into the market for sure.

    Why in holy fuck do people think another shot every couple of months is going to do jack shit to prevent or even lessen their chances of dying from the chinese flu at this point.  If the vax is really only good for a few months of whatever I would really want to wait and see at this point in time to either better understand what the near term effects of this shit is going to do to people that just keep vaxxing or if the virus continues to mutate to lesser states - omicron -.  

    It has already been proven that natural immunity is better if you survive and guess what dipshits, the majority by a fucking longshot are surviving this shit vaccinated or not.

    Yep. The 3rd, now 4th jab in long term care facilities sure seem to me we are chasing the virus, but the new variant of the China virus has stopped killing people because the new version has mutated to spread without killing the host.

    Pretty sure I got the Rona, when we pulled the mother in law out of the home, brought her here. March 2020

    She stayed with my wife in the house, I lived for the 14 days in the trailer.

    Woke up a day or so after we took her out, at 2 am, like someone was belt sanding my throat. Never felt this in my life. I literally could not speak.

    I've got kinda fat and lazy once releasing from the military, but still have Wolverine like healing abilities.

    September and beyond I got the two jabs, for work purposes, and a directive from the DND. I get fully released in Feb, so why not. 

    Shit. In 2016 there was an exercise in some god forsaken region.  My paperwork finally caught up with me...took 8 years. I couldn't prove I'd had any vaccinations so I had to go to the local base and get poked with every other vaccination there is. Think it was 6 jabs.

    Maybe got the new and improved Rona again last month. Same thing, but far less.

    Natural immunity works IMO. The jabs work IMO.

    We need to stop with the infighting, the political bullshit, the lockdowns etc. 

    Let people be, businesses etc, just fucking deal with it.

    very cool

    Close...very cold.

    When you have to do the stoppage drill on the AR 15, aka the C7, pull the gloves off, dislodge a bad round and get it shooting again, your fingers freeze in about a half second.

    The aluminum rifle was so cold, just touching it froze your fingers.

    I've tried every glove, mitt, heat pack, you are still fucked.

    Riding in that environment, it's dark when you start out, it's dark when you stop after a couple hundred miles, is just brutal. Not that the sun does much heating.

    There is no shack to warm up, no way to heat your hands or body, other than grab the engine or exhaust. You are shivering from start to finish in the best gear there is.

    Set up one night in the tents, -45. I thought it better to set up in the small dips amongst the rocks, out of the wind.

    Nope, the locals said set up on the sea ice. Get out the saws and build a snow block wall, or igloo around the tent. The ice is a constant temperature, the ground is way colder.

    You want to pack it in for the day, literally, but a couple more hours making the snow walls and blocks around the tent works awesome. Wake up to 5C not -45C

    Smart fuckers, but they do live there lol.

    Maybe make your piece of sheet metal not fall against the shitty aluminum tube?

    I've engineered lots of stuff, electrically. 

    Me and the old man use a rule. 

    %80. that's what it should be used at.

    That's the spec.,

    We build it for some twat that's gonna use it at %125. All the time.

    It will last forever, which it does.

  6. Heard it sets up a million miles out of earth orbit. 

    6 seconds for the info to get back to earth, by my math.

    Imagine that lag time in a gamers world lol. I need a faster router!!

    IR sensors will capture shit that went down a long time ago, in a galaxy far away.

    Hundreds of thousands of years ago.

    We are still riding explosions to get big shit into space, circa 1960's.

    Pretty fucking cool.

    The most powerful machine ever built.

    Still gives me a chubby every time I watch.
