What is the primary goal?
To win the game.

re: Rape Kits Being Used to Identify Women As Suspects In Criminal Cases

Just wait until the government gets everyone's DNA from 23andMe or AncestryDNA. If they don't have it already.
Wait? It’s possible now. They don’t even have to be able to find you. They can identify your relatives by DNA and narrow down the suspect pool…. to you. It’s a major ethical dilemma. 6 million+ cold cases could likely be solved with DNA, if we are willing to give up that much more privacy and access.

Unless you already buy everything else Montblanc makes, it’s Breitling by a mile. But please don’t buy any of these from Amazon.

No. Not enough rockets. Not enough fuel. Not enough time.
A thousand flights a day with 100 people on each would take 192 years.
Not to mention, 200 lbs of resources would be worth more to new moon people than a random person.
Any Earth evacuation will be limited to those picked as essential, and those rich enough to be deemed essential… because their money still matters to the 7 billion people left behind on Earth. It’s scary.

re: Why do you believe that we should be driving electric vehicles?
Posted by patendedgmf on 10/6/21 at 5:10 pm to weagle99
Because the electricity used to power it can be made at home on your roof.
That’s the long play goal.
I liked this video about looking at electricity as a super efficient form of energy. So much less heat waste in electricity storage and transfer than combustion. YouTube
My wife drives a Tesla. I still have gas vehicles for work that are definitely more convenient for long haul trips too.
But, If all things were equal in cost and convenience, why wouldn’t you pick electric?
If there were super chargers on every block, with battery tanks the size of the gas tanks at convenience stores. If the power came from solar or coal, it doesn’t matter. The first step is getting you driving something that will take the electricity made by either.

Get into a program. Success is about daily maintenance and accountability. Also, remember if you encounter setbacks… it is not the end of the world or your sober journey. Setbacks are normal, keep your head up. Keep moving forward. You’ve made a great choice. Congratulations on the beginning of your new life.
re: For those of you with a successful website, how did you "break through" to get traffic?
Posted by patendedgmf on 10/2/21 at 3:02 pm to GeneralLee
quote:You are talking about the demographic every financial institution in the world is willing to pay a premium to get. This is not 2002. You aren’t going to grow this thing with cheap paid advertising. You can’t afford to compete even if your site had traction. It doesn’t. Cost per acquisition on a user signup like this will be $40-120. This is why I all those “free” services sell data. If you are serious about spending several hundred thousand dollars on ads, say so and I’ll email you to talk about a business plan. Otherwise you should be doing it 100% organically, and then the active users you get signed up for free that keep using the site will ultimately have a value of … shocker… $40-120. Pick a different niche where you aren’t competing will trillion dollar entities. If I asked you, “did you code this site yourself? Do you host it? Do you know the encryption specs you are using to protect people’s most sensitive data?” and you said anything like “I’m more the IDEA MAN” …. Shut it down today and stop wasting your money.
late 20's to late 40's with a net worth probably $100K-$2M. You think people like that are using Tik Tok?
re: Saintly Succession: Gayle Benson’s plan to give back to the community, keep Saints in NO
Posted by patendedgmf on 9/30/21 at 4:58 am to Brightside Bengal
The NFL won’t allow such a clause either. This is Gayle handling her business while she is alive. If such an owner shows up, good! The biggest piece is that her estate and proceeds from the sale will fund the charitable giving from her foundation, which will mostly be local.

re: So is it just going to rain forever in SELA?
Posted by patendedgmf on 7/9/21 at 12:09 pm to JohnnyKilroy
Second week of July, normally my sprinklers would be running pretty regularly by now. Maybe even every morning. Instead, they haven’t run all year. We are at a high for rainfall, but the additional lack of clear sunshine between storms is a different phenomenon. This isn’t “June Gloom”, we are getting a legit wet season.

I had one driver text me through the app after the delivery, asking if he could bring his kids back later to go swimming. The chat session closed before I could respond. Not a threatening guy, but odd.
How long before a driver is asking where we got our shoes?

Extreme Ownership had so many leadership stories and examples that made sense to me and summarized common issues I’d face within myself. Listen to it. Hear it read in Jocko’s voice. Hear him say …“Good.” I recommend it to every young person i hire that has potential but desires more focus and refinement. Good luck on your new pursuits.

Order a large pizza. Eat it on the sofa or in bed while watching a manly movie that your wife doesn’t quite appreciate. Fall asleep on said sofa or bed, before putting up the pizza. (Really cut loose)
Then on day two, get back to work and do at least one thing she’ll appreciate when she gets back. Get an oil change. Clean your gutters.
Spend some time on self reflection. Maybe drive out to put some flowers on your grandbaws grave. But, don’t be a bitch. You don’t need a mani-pedi, soy boy.
