    Denny are you still short?
    Mostly flat now. Just some otm puts left. It's a high margin short. And every other time I've thought it's in a death spiral he's pulled a rabbit out of a hat.

    Being early is the same as being wrong. I was about five years too early with this bet.

    If you think something is a bubble, or someone is a charlatan there's far more profit in betting on them. There'll be plenty of time to get short after they get found out.

    The likes of TSLA/MSTR/OTLY have taken forever to sink.

      Do all of the FIRE people have to go back to work now?

        Downloaded the Sleep Cycle app during the week. Three nights using it now and it's working a treat, a massive difference in how I feel waking up, or more importantly, my ability to get up early.

        I skipped the €30 annual sub but the temptation to listen to recordings of myself snoring or talking in my sleep was too much.

        Was going to sign up today anyway but a little bonus and tip for anyone else is, if you wait three days the sign up drops to €18.


        Listening to your snoring and rambling is quite weird though. Like listening to somebody else.

There seems to be quite a few events/festivals but not one place that advertises them a decent bit in advance of them happening? Most of the time the first I hear of a festival is someone posting an update in this thread and by that stage, it is far too late to make any plans to play where as I would probably jump in the odd event if I could organize it well in advance. The forums here around all this stuff seem completely dead?
            There is a group on Facebook called The Irish Poker Forum. Seems to have most games advertised on there. The only thing is though, nobody ever posts a structure or anything and is never held to account like they were with the charter on here.

            A typical post advertising a game would go like this. €100 entry, 8pm start, 20min clock. And that's it

              I'd be worried about the ol rambling there Ted . Ya could get a bang from a car or a late night scooter.

                        It's certainly not a great venue but there was a bunch of factors in it unfortunately.

                            Just keep moving to lower income countries imo.

                            You must be due a relocation anyway. Ever consider getting out of Europe for a bit?

                              we initially considered Thailand for cost of living reasons but there's a whole heap of legal problems around owning property there that caused concern and then the language is a big thing as well obviously.

                              recently we've talked about South America now that we can be sure we won't die of hunger or thirst if we have to rely on just Spanish, but there's an inherent fear about the unknown and safety (almost certainly unjustified as long as you're smart and in main cities) could possibly do 6 months at some stage maybe.

                              We're happy enough where we are, things have started to increase in price but they had a pretty low base so it's not a huge deal. Ask me again in 12 months and I might have a different answer but for now we batten down the hatches and regress to me making espresso martinis for our breakfast instead of us going out for them....the indignance of it all

                                walking down the 7th in the first big tournament of the season, playing ok, felt a massive pop in the leg, thought i'd been struck by a golf ball. I take one more step and leg bends in half. Off to A&E for a brand new broken leg. last time it took 18 months to fix, that's my season over FFS!!!!!!!!!!!

                                      Been reading Low Life, inspired by Benny today.

                                      Mrs D3 asked me suspiciously what I was laughing at. I tried to explain the off the charts levels of dissolution described within.

                                      More suspicious looks.

                                          Sounds horrible Shrap, hopefully not as long this time for recovery.

Had a chondrosarcoma (bone tumour) eat through my tibia in 2000, so the middle of the tibia (about 10-15 cms) was removed and replaced with a piece of titanium and rods inserted all the way down the inside of the bones on the ankle and knee side. Happy to post the xray if you want to see what the inside looks like. it's pretty impressive tbh and ensures i can't get through an airport scanner without screaming sirens which get everyone's attention!

Pretty interested in that stuff after going the knee surgery route myself. But only if it’s handy, don’t feel like you have to dust off the scanner. (Do people still have scanners)
