Fuck you amazon and your bullshit spyware tablet.

So not quite parity but I just noticed 420 sats is now 42¢ Pretty cool, and makes sense given $1,000,000 BTC = 1¢ Sat

Lame ducks are all the same, no?

Hey @Ken Berry, MD, I just watched this video and after having a CAC 2 years ago we found some moderate calcium. Two years ago of course we were also still on the tail end of all the covid BS and I had begun taking vitamin D with regularity at the start in early 2020. I also get D from the sun all summer as I almost never wear a shirt and get tons of sun. This week after some other medical issues I talked with my Chiropractor, who's also a nutritionist and MD, as I always like to get a non 'mainstream medical opinion' on anything major or concerning, and he noted that 'Vitamin D in absence of K2 will actually CAUSE calcification in the arteries.' In all the pro Vitamin D info I'd seen, I'd NEVER heard that before. Would you concur with this? Should someone with some calcification eliminate D and continue K2? Reduce D and increase K2? Something else? I feel awful that while I was starting to eat better to help overcome or improve the situation, I was actually adding to it! Thanks for any thoughts or advice!

So I'm sure I've mentioned Corey, 'the guy at the Agway' who has for literal decades been incredibly kind and generous to me. My son started working for him when he was 14, and stopped working there more than a decade ago. Corey continued to give me his employee discount. Saved me TONS on my feed etc over the years. Five years ago, he shut down the store and sold the several acres of land for development, but opened a smaller shop to sell bird feed and his other big sellers, but really paired it down. He loved retail but hoped to do less management of the business. A month ago, he closed down the new shop as his lease ended and he REALLY didn't want to spend 12 hours a day on the business anymore. I expect he did OK with the property sale, but again, wanted to keep doing the customer interaction involved in retail, so he got a job at the local (family owned and GREAT) Ace Farm and Feed to keep doing that. The guy is also an Arcade game enthusiast, lots of pinballs and arcade games in the back room at the store. A while back he got a shuffle alley from 2003. I have an old wedge head bowling themed pinball machine from 1975 called King Pin and I thought they'd look cool next to each other, so I asked him if he was going to sell it and how much it'd go for when he did. He said probably around $1500. Last week he said it was done so I went to check it out and get the total, he said $500!?! (I subsequently saw one online for $2200, better condition, but the one he had was easily a $1500 machine). Yesterday my pinball buddy Torry (yea, Torry and Corey) came down to help me pick it up and set it up. We got the base and alley home and realized there was NO way we'd get the head unit down the steps in my split-level without a third set of hands, so when we went back I had to ask Corey if he could come with us to unload it and get it in. He said 'Of course!' It still wasn't an easy job, but he and Torry helped me get it together and we just hung out and talked about arcade games and pinball etc for another couple hours. After Corey left Torry and I got it into place, and got the old wedge head and the other two machines in place. Turned into a pretty cool game room. A really good day.

@Ken Berry, MD; I recall seeing a video recently where you mentioned that you had been wrong on vegetables, or some specific vegetables in a previous video you'd done. I was doing specific (and somewhat frantic) research so I didn't watch it, but it later made me curious: Do you remove videos that you believe you were wrong in? Do you leave them for 'historical integrity' ? Do you Mark them or add a explanatory intro and leave them? I'm looking through a lot of old videos at this point and I just want to be sure that you are still confident in the info I'm seeing. Thanks for any clarification you can offer!!

Hey Bitcoin chumps! Did you see the S&P is up nearly 0.4% today. Bet you all feel silly!

Speaking of "all time highs"; my all time high was 267 Lbs. (possibly a bit more because there was time I was a bit fatter still, but didn't monitor or record my weight). I have a 'rock solid constitution', so I was always able to eat whatever I wanted... which ended up being crap. A while back I started eating keto and had some success, but would still eat crap on 'days off' that I chose. A couple months ago my wife and I stopped eating ANY ultra processed foods, seed oils and sugars / HFC. Today for literally the first time in this century I'm down to 200 LBS. Not stopping now! Thanks to my wife (who makes it easy to eat great food that isn't bad for me!), to @Ken Berry, MD for his quality advice and to @Jack Spirko for calling himself 'a fat ass' when he was thinner than me!
