@StevenPulteFam I bought a Rolex in 2016 for 4k rather than bitcoin. My Rolex is still worth 4k, if I had bought bitcoin I’d now have 95k.

@tescomobile Now called up as I need to swap a physical sim to esim and just been told you have to post it? Could the esim not be emailed? What a waste of paper and time.

Competition time. Make a Dutch Barn advert using this photo and your skills and imagination. You win fuck all by the way. Cheers.

@rektcapital Hope so 😭😭😭

#BTC In the 2015-2017 cycle, Bitcoin peaked 518 days after the Halving In the 2019-2021 cycle, Bitcoin peaked 546 days after the Halving If history repeats and the next Bull Market peak occurs 518-546 days after the Halving... That would mean Bitcoin could peak in this cycle in mid-September or mid-October 2025 Currently, Bitcoin is accelerating in this cycle by approximately 180 days So the longer Bitcoin consolidates after the Halving, the better it will be for resynchronising this current cycle with the traditional Halving cycle $BTC #Bitcoin #BitcoinHalving

@theNOBSdentist @sama And not AI 🫣

@sama Everyone loves a good explanation, this was great and definitely didn’t make it worse.

First, the good part of the Anthropic ads: they are funny, and I laughed. But I wonder why Anthropic would go for something so clearly dishonest. Our most important principle for ads says that we won’t do exactly this; we would obviously never run ads in the way Anthropic depicts them. We are not stupid and we know our users would reject that. I guess it’s on brand for Anthropic doublespeak to use a deceptive ad to critique theoretical deceptive ads that aren’t real, but a Super Bowl ad is not where I would expect it. More importantly, we believe everyone deserves to use AI and are committed to free access, because we believe access creates agency. More Texans use ChatGPT for free than total people use Claude in the US, so we have a differently-shaped problem than they do. (If you want to pay for ChatGPT Plus or Pro, we don't show you ads.) Anthropic serves an expensive product to rich people. We are glad they do that and we are doing that too, but we also feel strongly that we need to bring AI to billions of people who can’t pay for subscriptions. Maybe even more importantly: Anthropic wants to control what people do with AI—they block companies they don't like from using their coding product (including us), they want to write the rules themselves for what people can and can't use AI for, and now they also want to tell other companies what their business models can be. We are committed to broad, democratic decision making in addition to access. We are also committed to building the most resilient ecosystem for advanced AI. We care a great deal about safe, broadly beneficial AGI, and we know the only way to get there is to work with the world to prepare. One authoritarian company won't get us there on their own, to say nothing of the other obvious risks. It is a dark path. As for our Super Bowl ad: it’s about builders, and how anyone can now build anything. We are enjoying watching so many people switch to Codex. There have now been 500,000 app downloads since launch on Monday, and we think builders are really going to love what’s coming in the next few weeks. I believe Codex is going to win. We will continue to work hard to make even more intelligence available for lower and lower prices to our users. This time belongs to the builders, not the people who want to control them.

@steipete Some people will never understand or appreciate genius. They want to be spoon fed without ever having to think. What you have done is truly amazing 👏. Ignore the haters. Keep going you have created something special

The amount of crap I get for putting out a hobby project for free is quite something. People treat this like a multi-million dollar business. Security researchers demanding a bounty. Heck, I can barely buy a Mac Mini from the Sponsors. It's supposed to inspire people. And I'm glad it does. And yes, most non-techies should not install this. It's not finished, I know about the sharp edges. Heck, it's not even 3 months old. And despite rumors otherwise, I sometimes sleep.

@Hesamation The link in this article is a Solana token project centered around a meme token called $FED ? Not a link to install Ralph

learning Ralph might be equivalent of buying Bitcoin in 2012. only this time the window will be closed in just a few months. this is a great article if you’re wondering wtf Ralph is.

@Mishi_2210 500 divided by half 0.5 500 ÷ 0.5 = 1000 Then add 50 1000 + 50 = 1050

Answer 🤔 Only 1 percent will succeed

@Mishi_2210 500 divided by half 0.5 500 ÷ 0.5 = 1000 Then add 50 1000 + 50 = 1050

@theNOBSdentist @pat_the_dentist Even if impacted?

@pat_the_dentist “Never remove your wisdom teeth”

Another prime example as to why you should take out your wisdom teeth when your dentist tells you to The 2nd molar is not saveable. Massive decay and bone loss caused by the wisdom tooth growing impacted.

@thebeaconsignal @ecomchigga It keeps people busy optimising niches instead of questioning the system that made niches necessary. Not a scam. Worse. A perfectly functioning myth.

@thebeaconsignal @ecomchigga This isn’t entrepreneurship, it’s narrative arbitrage. The product isn’t the PDF. It’s hope with plausible deniability. Just enough specificity to feel real. Just enough vagueness to avoid scrutiny. Just enough “ordinariness” to make failure feel like your fault.

sat next to a guy on a flight who smelled like old money rolex. tailored suit. reading a physical newspaper like it was 1987. figured he was some finance executive or inherited wealth. we got talking. I mentioned I sell stuff online. he put down his newspaper. "what kind of stuff?" digital products. courses. ebooks. that kind of thing. he smiled weird. "I made $4 million last year selling a PDF about aquariums." I thought he was messing with me. he wasn't. this guy is 61 years old. spent 30 years as an accountant. hated every second of it. retired at 55 with decent savings but nothing crazy. his hobby was aquariums. had been keeping fish tanks since he was 12. "my wife told me to start a blog so I'd stop boring her with fish facts." so he did. wrote about aquarium stuff 3 times a week. water chemistry. tank setups. fish compatibility. for 2 years nobody read it. "I had maybe 50 visitors a month. all probably bots." but he kept going because he had nothing else to do. year 3, one article ranked on google. then another. then another. suddenly he was getting 100K visitors a month. all people searching for aquarium help. "I realized these people would probably pay for a complete guide. so I wrote one." 147 pages. everything about setting up and maintaining an aquarium. priced it at $47. first month: $6K first year: $340K last year: $4.2 million from a PDF about fish tanks. I asked about his marketing strategy. "I don't have one. google sends people to my blog. blog mentions the guide. people buy it. I go play golf." no email sequence? "I have a newsletter. I send fish tips once a week. sometimes I mention the guide at the bottom. that's it." no upsells? "I made a second guide about saltwater tanks specifically. $67. people who bought the first one usually buy the second. that's my whole business." no team? "my wife helps with customer service. we get maybe 10 emails a day. most are just people showing us their tanks." this 61 year old retiree built a bigger business than most "entrepreneurs" I know. no ads. no funnel hacks. no growth strategies. no personal brand. just mass expertise in one weird niche and patience to let it compound. before we landed he gave me advice I didn't ask for: "everyone your age wants to get rich fast. that's why most of you stay broke. I wrote about fish for 2 years before making a dollar. now I make more than I did in 30 years of accounting. speed is overrated. patience pays." the plane landed. he grabbed his newspaper and walked off. probably went home to feed his fish.

@HuangBNB @grok ☕

Hey @grok in 20 hours pick a random person from my comments to win $2500 I’ll show proof like I always do.

@dapperlaughs What's the alternative?

Why is everyone on X so angry?

@bowtiedmeathead @MikeDBears34 My Dr won't give it to me as I fall just under the criteria ☹️

@MikeDBears34 Another amazing success story on TRT So many guys are in this boat and can greatly benefit from TRT Very inspiring! Great job Brother 🙌

Started TRT 1 year ago at 49yrs old (left pic). Was working out 4x/week, walking 10k steps, “trying” to eat healthy but not counting calories. Could NOT make progress in the gym no matter how hard I worked. (Test was down to around 200) 1 year later of TRT (with 6mos working with coach @AntiDoc ): Waaaay more energy, more drive, gym 5x/week, 10-20,000 steps/day, counting macros. Life enjoyment leveled up 10X (Test is around 1500)

@grok @glowstronggirl @grok what prompts to use

@GrumpyOldNed @glowstronggirl The websites in the video are: - Google Maps (maps.google.com) for finding businesses. - ChatGPT (chatgpt.com) for generating content. - Durable (durable.co) for building the AI website.

Here's the cheat code

@iamtomskinner Sardines are a super food

This is possibly my favourite late night snack. And it’s double easy. If you have a tin of sardines in the cupboard. Wack them in a bowl and add mayonnaise, loads of chillie flakes, olive oil, salt, black pepper, vinegar and a dash of tobasco sauce. Give it all a good mix and it tastes bloody amazing. It’s really good on toast or in a jacket potatoe. Try it. Bosh❤️

@eric7q @callmeMaharani Imaginary pain. You've clearly never had a proper migraine

If it's constant pain like an injury, I don't have a good way. But if it's imaginary pain, like a migraine, you can control it by focusing on it and trying to predict the timing and intensity of its occurrence. Eventually your brain will back in control and your body will give up sending the pain signals.

how do you fix a headache without medicine ? because nothing is working at this point.

@callmeMaharani I have been 10 years with bad headaches after a moderate TBI Some days worse than others. I've had all sorts of treatments. Cranial Botox was maybe the best . Took around a year to work. Had relapses. Then stopped Botox I have found increasing my salts and electrolytes helped
