GameStop has a certain percentage of eBay stock. Essentially they “own” a relative large percentage of eBay already. They also have a substantial amount of third party funding.

No I have never heard him talk. He just puts questions in chat and other attendees answer them.

Our 1:1 is via chat.

Yes I’m fully remote. Never met anybody face to face

Have you tried multi color prints? Those are fun especially when you think of all the different filament that’s out there.

Video games, 3D printing, and movies/television.

Modern video games are nothing more than a linear hand holding experience with hours of pre-rendered cut scenes. If I am interested in a game, I watch a streamer play it long enough for me to be bored then I read the plot on Wikipedia.

I used to have multiple 3d printers going. But after one broke down, I didn’t have the motivation to fix it.

Movies and television shows are the same slop with tired tropes. I watched Con Air with my son the other day and he was amazed with the difference between the acting and presentation in the 1990s compared to today.

Become an LLC.

LLC’s have more rights than citizens.

You start an LLC, name it something lawyer sounding like the last names of your friends but never call it a law firm. Call it civil representation.

Then when you get a customer not a client you can send letters on their behalf.

Most people freak out when they get an official looking letter with a “law name” on it. I’m not talking about the minority of people on here, but the majority of the population.

As long as you disclose your LLC does not practice law and you are simply “representing them” in a very general and broad sense you will be good.

They still have it but it is not as common as it once was. Pizza Hut has a book it nonprofit they funnel money into.

I married her. That’s pretty crazy to dedicate your entire life to one person. But I knew I found my soulmate for life. Been married for over 20 years now.

What’s Up by 4 Non Blondes Easily the most annoying song ever performed

Nobody thinks about that but yes it would. You are not immune to the black plague so you might get that even if you are vaccinated. Plus who knows how many viruses and diseases happened back then.

That’s a Geo Tracker and it was close to 40 mpg as you were going to get in the late 90s. That and the geo metro.

They show a target employee getting arrested but the target managers and their loss prevention people keep on high fiving and getting excited to fire this person. Cops were excited too. It just seems a little weird to see all these people getting excited about ruining this persons life.

Yes. And people just eat it up. I get it. I got caught up in the “hustle and grind” of life. I tried multiple income sources and I was proudly working 80 hours/week while missing my children grow up. But a life altering event caused me to pause and reassess my life. I started working less and spending more time with my family. I worked on myself from being low tempered to be more “go with the flow”

What is your best illegal lifehack?

I know they are paywalled but they give so much information.

I had a contractor that took my money and ran. I used one of those reverse lookup sites with just his name and phone number and I got his address as well as his relatives.

He did not like the fact I had a deputy serve him his court appearance or the time when I called his mother to confirm his data before the court date.

Long story short, I won the case. He claimed no assets so I will never get paid back.

He would be remembered as a martyr. Someone who gave up his life for all of us.

I interviewed a drug dealer that has been in the field for over 25 years. He looks just a regular guy. Nice house. Two kids. A wife who works. You would have no idea this neighbor was a dealer.

He and I wrote a book together.

People’s intuition on risk is wildly off here.

Skydiving sounds insane, but in the U.S. it’s ~9–10 deaths a year out of millions of jumps (roughly 1 in a few hundred thousand per jump).

Driving feels normal, but it kills ~40,000+ people every single year.

So yeah—both involve “transportation,” but the one everyone does casually every day is orders of magnitude deadlier than the one that sounds extreme.

I had $0.14 in my checking and $0.07 in my savings and my mortgage was three months behind and I didn’t have a job and I didn’t have anybody I could turn to for money. I realized how much I had and how I wasted it all. And knowing that climb to get back was going to be hard.
