    Is there an argument for downloading content and and not just streaming content all the time?

    Always preferred local vs streaming; better bitrate, no DRM / Disney "back in the vault" BS, etc. Pair a ton of local storage (see sig) with Jellyfin, and I'm set

    You thought you didn't like Linus Tech Tips

    Not related, but still elicited a chuckle when I came across this Tech Jesus when he was still just a carpenter

    Discussion EVGA exits video card market, terminates partnership with Nvidia (GN, JayzTC)

    Would be ironic if nVIDIA goes the 3Dfx route of being the only board maker (since it seems to view AIBs as scum-sucking parasites)

    What are you buying with your $1200 check?

    ^ This. Trickle-down-economics is the biggest scam of the century.

    What are you buying with your $1200 check?

    IRS' officially definition is something that is "substantially similar", but in practice, they don't seem to care if you flip say IWM <-> VBK or some such. I got lucky twice; first is TLHing early March, second is flipping VTSAX to a combination of MM and AMZN. Absolutely unbelievable that AMZN...

    What are you buying with your $1200 check?

    No check for me :( But at least I tax-loss harvested in my non tax-advantaged account, so that's something!

    What are you buying with your $1200 check?

    This is ATOT. I thought we all made $1M+, drove supercars, and slept with supermodels. so none of us would qualify for $1200?

    ^ This. I treat "Sell to open" with the utmost caution, though watching someone else get thrashed by theta is fun. On another note, technical analysis is a fine tool (I look at Fibonacci retracements, dark pool indicators (GEX/DEX), etc.) but it all goes out the window when a damn Tweet up and...

    Couldn't find a $10,000 picture in Google search. At least not without President Camacho on it! Also, Jerome Powell might as well be black. Might just be Camacho's great, great grandfather :P

    That's why we need $10,000 bills like Japan. You know, like how I store 100TB of 4K VR pr0n on 7x14TB HDDs, instead of 100x1TB HDDs :P

    No need, you can just watch Trump's daily briefings for Chanel Rion. Dumber than a brick, but can still give you a stiffy :) Will probably take a break from daytrading for a little while. While making some bank is nice (like IWM 5/1 $121Cs today), there's more to life than staring intently at a...

    I only watch CNBC for entertainment - only thing I know for dead certain is that stocks go right! It's also hilarious to see the change in headlines/graphics on the CNBC site when say the DOW flips from +100 to -100. With VIX so high, the changes are so violent/fast that the headlines/graphics...
