Yeah, I know. I have what many would consider an absurd amount of rice and beans and salt so it makes sense to store something that won’t go bad. Gold never spoils. Never.
Ever since we found gold we have valued it. I don’t understand the position of, “Oh, no one will value it!” We love the shit and it’s a store of value. How much value is dependent.
Well, you can.
If you don’t hold it, you don’t own it.
Investing in gold someone else holds is silly. Having a few ounces stashed away is just illiquid asset that should be a hedge against inflation.

Blood Libel refers to the antisemitic trope that Jews eat Gentile babies. I doubt you can find anyone that thinks that now, but it was a very real rumor in the past and contributed to very real persecution across Europe
Man… The Chinese language is supposed to encompass phrases within single characters, but this sentence is obviously longer in Chinese than it is in English.
Are you trying to trick us?
Asian asian food is saltier than I expected, but I try to watch my health. Honestly it’s probably just restaurants that do it, like everywhere in North America and Europe is trying to kill me with butter.
As opposed to the Europeans who think that wine is a dietary group? Or Asians who think that salt is a vitamin?
I replaced my entire diet with applesauce and I think I might be shitting myself to death.

5·19 天前Bro, does it still work? I can’t imagine it will but if so, give the magnet link.
Can we still play it? I’ll 1v1 you later today if we can.
With that weird kick on the jump animation and the totally stupid crouch animation.
I’m obviously “Grizzly Bear” but I might be “German Muscle Woman” for the right price.
$20 went a lot further back then.

Goddamn money printer he’s got there. No hate, I just can’t believe the platform that we had to install to play Counter Strike (1.6?) has become the juggernaut it has.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is there a practical reason data centers have to sprawl outward instead of upward?

source: Wyoming.
and of course, building one floor of data center is exponentially cheaper than building two floors.
