I don't really understand much of this virtual currency stuff, but it sounds a lot like gambling, or playing the stock market (aka expensive gambling). Also, "mining bitcoin"? That sounds like grinding for xp in a video game? How can that even work (outside of being a pyramid scheme) without...

If you have photoshop what you can do is take the scan of your fakemon and put a transparent layer over it. Then take the pencil tool and increase the tool's size to something manageable and draw over your scan using a few different colors to approximate the shape of the original drawing. That...

This is actually the title of a book I read listened to. (Full title is "Weapons Of Math Destruction: How Big Data Increases Inequality And Threatens Democracy." ) It talks about all the data algorithms that are becoming more commonplace throughout our lives and how there's a lot of potential...

Have you always been a morning person or did you change for some reason? Do you drink coffee or something caffeinated or sugary to give you a boost through the day?

What do you think of the couple of Narnia movies they made? What kind of stuff did you do while you were in Japan?

What makes you a strange rhypno? How well do you take care of yourself? (Getting enough sleep, eating right, etc.)

It's not as good as the first season, but there's plenty of good in it.

I'm really excited that Florence and the Machine is coming out with an album soon. It's only like a month away now. I can't wait to play it to death.

It was good though. Especially if you stayed for the credits.

There was something in that tl;dr post about the need to have sources and evidence. Here's some that show there's more gun deaths (homicide or otherwise) per capita in the USA compared to other developed countries. https://www.cnn.com/2017/10/03/americas/us-gun-statistics/index.html And...

I prefer sunsets. Don't have to get up early. Plus I live close enough to the ocean so I can see sunsets on the water.

Look, I'm sorry if you didn't like how I presented my viewpoints. I'm using some dark humor to point out the absurdity of the position that lax gun laws make us safe. If you don't want to be persuaded that's fine. There was nothing disrespectful in my post toward any member here so I don't see...

Good choice. Your fine taste in sea life has not gone unnoticed.
