Kat sucks. Unfunny, all shouting and attitude 🤷‍♂️

Enjoyed that one. May not hold up, been a long while

I too felt anchorman wasn't so great. Taladega Nights too. Overall a fan, but never got the extreme love for Anchorman

lol, had to google to figure out what it could be. Too smart for your own good. Or maybe dumb...as you point out regarding suffixes

Ok, I looked it up and there's debate on eggs. There really is a bagging competition though:

The National Grocers Association (NGA) Best Bagger Championship is an annual competition that tests grocery baggers on speed, technique, and style. Contestants bag identical orders of up to 40 common items using reusable bags. Judging is based on a point system, with 10 points possible for speed and 10 for bag building technique

Akkktually, I was told by a pro bagger that eggs on bottom is correct and not risky. Yes, there are literally annual bagging competitions ranking speed and efficiency for bagging.

Saw a rare long post from you yesterday that I need to go read now that I have time. Down with cities! 🔥

Yeah, some end of year work things I wanted out of way before day started. All squared away now

I guess nostr:npub162zpxufpw8pnuytaf0gfxzkqtvk9rvcwkvppa7x57y3n7qkfpg4shatdhy is resting well and sleeping in again before the turn of the New Year

It's also possible, and the case, that I had other things to tend to this morning. Had my solution couple hours ago but didn't post as I didn't wanna then check out for the inevitable smack talk that would follow. Did I win? Let's see...

….if I’ve learned nothing else in the many tarded years ⭕️ my otherwise nearly insignificant existence it’s to not rise to the bait of or give rent in ur subconscious to someone who other wise has very little significance in ur day to day life🤔🤷🏽‍♂️😂

….it’s the ol “sticks and stones” adage my generation of kids on play grounds heard over and over as we learned coping skillz….nowadays there’s adderall and ssri’s😳🤦🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️

….side bar: we also learned there was always someone bigger and badder than us on the playground that was willing to punch us in the face when we ran our mouths with reckless abandon like modern day politicians (little lord Fauntleroys who’ve obviously never been punched in the face)

….some folks think we mighta been better off back then🤔🫡

While a bit off topic, there is much wisdom here. We're grateful and lucky to have an elder like you, a shaman/witchdoctor, if you will.

Happy New Year, you old coot!

That's not Rand. He'd never say this

Gd it! Why must life be so hard! But yeah, seems obviously bad now that I think about it

Agree you can't escape USD for now, in most trades. Thats what UoA sorta means, no?

It's simply that one can swap between the USD price to whatever else they may ultimately want nearly instantaneously (no slippage and accepted everywhere), thus ignoring this is giving free money away to someone that can arb.

It is what it is. It's some sort of phase shift that won't happen overnight, or be obvious until after the fact, when we'll be able to live in this non-usd denominated world you describe.

Yeah, the canceling out thing is hard to ignore. UoA and deep liquidity (hence easy arbitrage) is a tough thing to break from.

Was thinking other day though, that if you stretch out the time between trades, then you can more clearly see how it's different trading pairs, since usd price for things fluctuates a good deal over even relatively short times. I think it's a gradually then suddenly thing in the end. Maybe we slowly chip away at USD UoA as markets freeze up here and there, and people use BTC (or xmr..sigh) increasingly.

Originally you had save codes and could restore with gear, but had to start in initial location you start game in. That meant having to travel all the way through everything over again

Shall keep you posted. Managed to do longer than my gym partner, who's much younger, so that was cool

this is waxwing illustrating my point beautifully.

its ridiculous to believe you somehow get rid of the UoA *by dividing two prices denominated in that unit of account*

the result is *proportional USD value*. the USD doesn't magically disappear because THATS WHAT YOU MEASURED WITH.

there's an argument to be made that the proportion would work out the same, no matter what UoA the market was using to denominate prices.

but that doesn't hold water IMO.

if we had any isolated markets that were denominating freely in something like gold or silver (free of USD market influence), i dont think the valuation of commodities would work out AT ALL like the USD denominated markets do.

what we use as the underlying unit of account *distorts pricing*

and don't even get me started about "are USD consistent across different markets and at different points in time"

because they're not. your "lets see where there charts are next year" means little.

what you will be measuring with will be a *different "USD"

this must be deeply appreciated.

Pretty good articulation (compared to past ones), even if it's still a bit impossible to argue against the math. I still like the xmr discount you get in some specific markets as a concrete example, iirc. In that instance the arbitrage may not be wanted, as "cleaning the trail" might be considered more costly to seller than the discount.

Times dead gang just now, though in my defense it was at end of my workout (back and bi, with assisted pull-ups just prior). 35 seconds

Distro is short for distribution, which just means the flavor of Linux (eg mint, Ubuntu, pop, etc). Linux itself is I suppose everywhere...might be his point in the last statement. I admittedly may be missing something, but not expecting the elusive Chip to reply anytime soon
