  1. was looking at this at the Cosmo and it seems like the price was just a minimum spend for the bottle service. bottle prices were $700+ and way on up but the terms said that if you did not spend more than X amount on booze/food, then you would be charged whatever the min was. I have never done it before so this is only what i read on interwebz
  2. yep, i have little trees trying to grow in the gutters on one side of my house
  3. do most insure their watches? any particular company better than others?
  4. need to start a 'dunk on crypto' thread, lol bought a little ETH and SOL before the Fed news. nothing crazy but a nice little 10-15% run. sold half and set SL
  5. why not? i farm out most of my important business decision to this board and twitter
  6. have seen similar articles citing that Millennials see jobs as purely a necessary funding mechanism for their lifestyle. obviously, that's a broad brush, but attitudes are certainly changing.
  7. ugh. had a post that got lost in the ether. but the CEO mentioned 'bets that did not pay' or something. i think they failed big time on their NFT marketplace and not sure how much traction they are getting on their own wallet, so some their ventures also seemed to tank. The swift cancellation of job offers and RIFing existing workers seems a little too quick to solely lay at the feet of a slowdown. but that's just like, my opinion, man...
  8. question, the turf is permeable, right? it would not count against any non-permeable limit for drainage? We went through 3 iterations of trying to put St Augustine in the backyard. Found one lawn specialist that said it looked like a fungus specific to St Aug was in the dirt and it would likely never thrive there. Put in a Palisades Zoysia last year and it's doing great so far in year 2. If this fails, would likely look at turf.
  9. But are they cutting staff because they know regulations are coming that will squash some expected revenue streams? or burden them with expensive compliance practices?
  10. NFT prices have pretty much pegged with ETH price (relative to the $) whereas before NFT prices would generally just follow market trends and the price of ETH did not affect the pricing of NFT too much. So everything is down and people are generally bummed out right now but still looking out for the next big thing lol does not sound like they are bringing anything new to the table. Opensea remains the dominant force in NFT marketplaces. I would expect this flop or not make any impact at all. Coinbase tried this and their marketplace got basically zero traction.
  11. lots of anecdotal stories from people rec'ing crypto to their families over the Thanksgiving break when ETH was > $4K. yeesh. I am usually pretty reluctant to try and on-board friends or family to crypto/NFTs because of the volatility and also i don't see it as a 'set and forget' type investment. ETH sub $1200 now. I thought BTC at $22K might be a good buy range (for alts) but not touching anything right now.
  12. Finally arrived last night. freaking love it! looks like a different watch depending on how the light hit it. Soooo this won't turn into an addiction, right?
  13. thanks! how long until your powered servers get the change going?
  14. i believe 100% that collusion, fraud, theft etc... are discussed in Discord and Telegram on an hourly basis and then carried out. not sure i will believe any of this, though. be interesting to see who this person targets/purports to be frauding people as an 'influencer'. The murder stuff seems lulz-y.
  15. pretty sure you need to call 1800 CASHNOW
  16. still File not Found error when clicking on forum links at the bottom of the page. in Dark Mode if that matters. forum links at top of page seem to work
  17. sorry if it's been posted i am 4 pages behind
  18. went to the 6/5 game v Seattle. We took the doggo for 'Bark in the Park' day. It went incredibly well. the dog sections were down the let field line and we were right by foul pole. looked like Garcia's dinger was going reach us, but fell a little short. 100% of dogs in our section were super chill. I thought it might be a disaster, but i wish they could do more of these games. First time in the ballpark and it was great. much more open and you can see the field from pretty much anywhere in the concourse. Only downside was getting out of the parking lots. We were in lot V and holy shit, there was no one directing traffic there. nothing in that lot moved for 45 minutes. I could see other lots that either had a cop or a Rangers staffer stopping traffic here and there to let cars get out of the lots occasionally. but then they left early and it was hell getting out for those lots as well. if i would have known it was going to be that bad, would have wandered around and checked out the stuff around the stadium for an hour.
  19. would have been funnier if they used Nowthis' search history. The son would be named 'Peg'
  20. well, doesn't Sirois stream his gaming on twitch? Gordo can just tune out like he does currently for sports segments when Mike is teabagging 13 yo in Counterstrike.
  21. respectfully, you are out of your gawd damn mind if you engage with anyone on nextdoor, imo. especially concerning political topics. about as effective of changing hearts and minds here in the CR
  22. nah, bro. dude on my nextdoor feed has it all worked out. take the $30B we are giving to Ukraine and instead divide it up among the 85K schools in the country. That $300K each will get 'er done no problem. 90% of those who deigned to post a reply were like "This is brilliant!"
  23. amnesia inducing, huh? ok, go ahead and put that one on a pedestal.
  24. team back in here. i usually park far away in the first uncrowded spots from the door so usually can just pull straight through a double spot to be facing out; no need to back in. but in cases like a parking garage, i back in so it does not take a 5 min 15 point turn to try and back my truck out of the parking spot where the spacing between rows is tight. so much easier to back in vs back out.
  25. seems like they are having trouble getting all the validators on board to plan the restart. SOL NTFs were really booming before this. But yeah, i don't want to have to restart my blockchain like a bad router every few months. SOL has super fast and super cheap transactions, but stuff like this is just nuts.
