How fnf fans look at you when you tell them waiting 5 years for 10-15 minutes of gameplay on a 2 million dollar budget is not in any way shape or form "justified" just because theyre indie devs

This woman says there is an easy way to tell if someone is 35 and over. She said they are waiting for the mulch to go on sale at Home Depot and Lowes before they start doing their mulch yard work. I have to admit- she is right! 😂 I was going to buy some from Home Depot - 3 for $10 but was told to wait until it goes on sale for 2 for $5. 💯 How about you? Do you wait for the mulch to reach its lowest sale price before purchasing a large amount? Is it just people 35 and over?

You can easily make +10% on BTC 5-min markets on Polymarket Here's what I tested: - I deposited $21 just to test (yeah, small size lol) - Did 10 trades in 50 minutes - Each trade brings around +1-5% if you put $5-10 per trade - Now the balance is $23 - That's ez +10% in under an hour My simple tactic: - Enter 30-60 seconds before the market closes - Only take odds 85-90%+ - Wait a few seconds -> take small profit -> done Yeah, a lot of people trade like this using clawdbots. But you don't need a bot - you can do it manually without any problem. Even with a small deposit, you can slowly scale it up if you don't get greedy

Some people making up ideas and spreading misinformation in qrts.. —No one is claiming it was “NMIXX’s crowd” it was Pabllo Vittar’s Block and the lineup had only 4 artists (Pabllo Vittar, NMIXX, S4TAN and Kaya Conky) —Pabllo gave NMIXX such long setlist, they performed about more than 10 songs and as much as I understand Pabllo treated them as the main artist, Pabllo and the team was so nice and they took care of the girls so well. —The point here is NMIXX had the biggest live crowd for a Kpop performance and the Brazil crowd welcomed them so well

Crimson Desert tip! 📜 Befriend a dog and they will loot for you automatically, saves so much time and hassle. If you don't know how, just pet and drop food until the trust reaches 100pts and then you can take them in. Petting gives 5 points and food gives 10, dogs prefer red meat. There's a cap on how many times you can do these so you need to do it over 2 in game days. So worth it.

“How many views do your TikTok channels get?” Bro, I get this question way too much, so here’s the tea ☕👇 This is one of my viral channels—made just 2 months ago with a Canada VPN. It pulls 700K+ views/week and 2.8M views/month, all from KOL-style app review ads, and the most-viewed video has reached 950K views. I run 10 phones, each with 3-5 TikTok accounts. Viral rates are trash, but when an account finally pops off, it stays up. Brands keep offering $50-$300 per video for promos, but I don’t take them. Why? Because if I can’t guarantee virality, I’d rather ghost them than flop. 😆

I tested my V02 max for the first time today: 🫀 57.4 ml/kg/min According to ChatGPT, that's the top 5–10% of men my age. The test was done in a lab using the Bruce protocol. Every 3 minutes, treadmill speed and incline increase: - stage 1: 4 km/h at 10% grade - stage 2: 5.5km/h at 12% - stage 3: 6.7 km/h at 14% - etc etc I passed out at the end of stage 5. It's just a horrible test because you're fighting inner demons to get a little farther. V02 max is a key biomarker in predicting longevity, so from now on, I'll focus my training on increasing that number.

My son had a baseball game tonight in a Jersey town a lot less red than my own, and as my daughter and I pulled into a store for the requisite game snacks, a lovely and kind woman saw us and she said she enjoyed the things I write on here. And honestly, with the amount of hate I get on here (yes trolls, bravo) it was just so wonderful to hear. And so, if she’s out there and happens to read this, my little girl said it made her “feel proud of her mom”, so thank you for that. And thank you for your kindness. It meant the world to me. ❤️ Oh, and my boy got a huge hit too. So, it was a 10/10 kind of night.

1/7 Built a Polymarket trading bot over 3 months. Here are the biggest mistakes that cost me real money > Went from v1 to v61. Every version fixed something painful. --- 2/7 Stop Loss killed more money than it saved. > Binary markets need room to breathe - fluctuations are normal. > Stop Loss was cutting positions on random noise and locking in losses right before the market flipped. > Removed it in v61. Immediately better. --- 3/7 Martingale + Stop Loss = a loss cascade. > Seemed logical: lost $5 -> bet $8, lost again -> bet $10. > In practice: a losing streak plus early exits = a hole in your balance in a single day. > Killed it. For good. --- 4/7 Smart Exit without Force Exit is a trap. > Token hits 90c (+75% profit), but the bot was waiting for a "BTC reversal" signal. > Market closes, token drops, profit gone. > Fix: hard Force Exit at 85c. No conditions, no waiting. --- 5/7 Blocking the 5:30-10:30 PM ET window felt safe. It wasn't. > NYSE open = sharp spikes = bad signals. Made sense to block it. > But the full block was also killing clean entries at 8-10:30 PM. > Had to split the zone into segments with different edge/move thresholds. --- 6/7 The Gamma API lies about market start time. > Start price ("price to beat") is the core input for every signal. > Gamma was returning stale data. Had to pull prices directly from Chainlink on-chain on Polygon. > That's its own adventure - polling a smart contract every 2 seconds at 2 AM. --- 7/7 The real lesson: don't overcomplicate what works. > v1: complex system, 10 indicators -> -$200/day > v61: "buy the expensive token for $5, exit at +30%" -> consistently green > Simpler logic = fewer failure points. > The bot runs 96 intervals a day.

Me and my Dad spent all day yesterday on the 3.0D SE X5. 2x Injectors changed, one of which was truly knackered due to (I think) water ingress. Turns out the Swirl flaps had already been deleted which is nice, new gaskets on the injectors and inlet manifold too. Tried to start it as we lost light and the battery was dead 😂 Left it on charge all night, tried this morning before I left for London and it just wouldn’t start. Presumed it was air in the fuel system needing bleeding out but didn’t have time. Got home this afternoon and to say that a decent diagnostic machine pays for itself over and over again is an understatement (Kingbolen K10PRO FYI) Actuated the fuel pump for 5 minutes, then cranked the car for about 20 second where it sparked into life. The Diagnostic machine then wanted me to purge the fuel system for 10 minutes at 2,000RPM which I let it do. Turned the car off and on again and it has ran perfectly, put heating, A/C, heated seats and as much load as I could - still stayed running. It basically hasn’t done that now for a month. Took it up and down the road, got up to national speed limit, all seems fine 😳 Still have a few things do sort to get it through its MOT which is mainly bulbs and a faulty fog light - what should be fairly straight forward things 🤞 then just a cosmetic touch up 🫟🖌️

Who knew Tai Chi apps could print $400,000/mo 😭 they literally have the dumbest formats ever. They generate this animation with an AI you can choose any MCP and it cost them maybe $0.10 cents and then just spam 4 videos per day. and comment farm to get downloads the marketing angle is losing weight Which surprise surprise always works 74% of america is overweight and they would do anything to lose that weight Except go to the gym.. So a Tai Chi app is perfect because it's easy. 10 sets of wasting their time but atleast they Feel like they are progressing 😭

"We dropped Emma off at college Monday morning. Eight hours later I came downstairs and found this. Buddy carried every single stuffed animal from her room to the front door. Every one. Her elephant she's had since she was four. The bear from her first Christmas. Every single one. He arranged himself right in the middle of all of them and he hasn't moved. He's 10 years old. He's been her dog since she was seven. I have no words for what I am looking at. I have no words for any of today." My husband thinks Buddy was trying to bring her back. I think he was doing the only thing he knew how to do — gathering everything that smelled like her and bringing it to the place she always comes back to. He did it one by one. All evening. While we sat in a quiet house not knowing what to do with ourselves. He knew what to do. He's 10 years old. His muzzle is going gray. He carried every single one. Emma called tonight to say she's okay. I told her what Buddy did. She was quiet for a long time. Then she said — "Don't move them. Leave them right there. I'm coming home Friday." We haven't moved a single one. Buddy is still in the middle of all of them. Waiting for Friday the way he has always waited for her — completely and without any doubt that she is coming. He has always been right about that. Drop a ❤️ for Buddy. And for every dog waiting by a door tonight for someone who is coming back Friday. They know. They always know.

Former President Trump at Grand Rapids, Michigan rally today: “As soon as I take the oath of office, we will begin the largest deportation operation in the History of our country!” Did anybody tell him that 5% of the entire American workforce is made up of undocumented immigrants? Does he realize what that would do to the economy if he started forcing these people out of the country along with the families they’ve created since coming here? Does he realize how many peoples’ lives would be turned upside down if you start deporting people who have been in this country for over a decade? Immigration is absolutely a problem in this country but if you’re gonna allow people to stay in this country for over 10 years, you don’t kick them out after they have families and children start contributing immensely to our economy. Figure out a way to prevent these people from coming in or removing them right away rather than going back and retroactively removing people who haven’t been here for 10 years or more.

Target puts lunch meat on sale that’s past it’s expiration date This package of chicken lunch meat is 10 days past its expiration date and still on the shelf This is legally allowed to happen. “Sell by” dates are technically for store inventory, not safety. Stores can legally sell past them and often do as long as it looks and smells fine I’ve noticed this same thing happens with sales at Walmart. Items way past expiration dates are simply marked down If something has a “use by” date, then some states more strictly enforce it. But a “sell by” or variation wording is up to the store

Okay thoughts on Obsession: -The lighting and sound design keeps you on your toes -The switch of Nikki/the entity from the one wish willow is incredible acting -Piggy backing off my last point, she’d make an incredible actress in any film. Her facial expressions, vocal range and emotional power driven through her voice is incredible -It was definitely made to be horror/comedy. -A few of the scenes had jumps that i thought I was prepared for but definitely was NOT -The Hansel and Gretel monologue and the party scene was executed so well it had me cringing -Subtle references to other horror films/horror history within it that make me want to give it another watch, maybe 5 more watches tbh -The scene screen capped was one of my favorites out of the entire film, my prime example of why her acting range in just this film alone is insane. Can’t wait to see her in more films in the future. 10/10 cinema IMO. It was incredible.

When you train in the 10-12 rep range, most of your reps have no direct effect on growth. When you train in the 4-6 range, virtually all of your reps are growth reps. Both ranges can build muscle. The mechanism doesn't care about the rep count. It cares about how close you get to true failure on the reps where the high-threshold motor units are recruited and every available fibre is firing. Those are the stimulating reps. Everything else is filler. The catch with 10-12 is twofold. First, only the last 4-5 reps in a 12-rep set are actually stimulating. The first seven are buffer. They generate fatigue, lactic acid, and joint wear that the muscle has to push through before any growth signal arrives. Effort, yes. Stimulus, no. Second, and this is where the high-rep crowd quietly come undone: the long set produces so much afferent feedback (burning, gasping, the legs giving a small philosophical speech) that almost nobody actually takes the set to true failure. They stop two, three, sometimes four reps short, mistake the discomfort for the limit, and call it a hard set. The stimulating reps they were chasing never showed up. A set of 6 doesn't allow that confusion. Failure is mechanical. The weight either moves or it doesn't. No interpretive dance required. You'll grow on 10-12. You'll grow more on 4-6, with less joint wear, less recovery debt, and considerably less guesswork. One range tolerates your mistakes. The other doesn't have room for them.
