    NASA Telescope Reveals Largest Batch of Earth-Size, Habitable-Zone Planets Around Single Star

    Clearly somebody needs to figure out a transport method that can take us through space at multiples of the speed of light. Elon? Anybody? :D

    Any watch collectors?

    I loved my Roger Dubuis Easy Diver Chronograph when I bought it ten years ago, and I still love it today!

    Range Rover unveils the first addition to its SUV line since 2010

    I rode in my friend's Evoque one time in Miami and I was pretty impressed with that vehicle. It was a little cramped for sure, but overall a very cool ride.

    The Primal Blueprint

    To me a long fast would be worth doing if you found out you some sort of health issue that could possibly be cured by fasting. But to just randomly do it and lose a bunch of muscle in the process seems counterproductive if you have any fitness or performance goals to achieve.

    Strategies

    The best strategy for achieving no gain at all but no loss either is just staying out of the market. A good strategy for achieving some minimal returns but with little chance of loss would be to just buy some U.S. Treasury Bonds.

    Bill Gates envisions robotax

    This taxing of robots is the stupidest idea ever. I wonder if Bill Gates would like a special tax on Microsoft software sales to account for all the automation it provides, and for increases in productivity it gives us over good 'ol pen and paper. I'm surprised he didn't mention taxing all...

    Has anybody got paid from Nevis Trading?

    Nevis hasn't been a sponsor here for years and Nonko was never a sponsor here so your comment makes no sense.

    3 minute push up challenge

    Thats good though because now you know the baseline you have to work with. So next time you should do 10 reps, and then rest 10-15 seconds. Then do 10 more reps. Rest again but for 15 - 20 seconds this time. Rinse and repeat. Using that method, you'll probably double your first attempt on the...

    off-site research setup?

    All you need to do is set up a Google cloud account and create a "compute instance" (a server on the Google cloud platform) with the server specs you laid out and you will have the setup you are looking for. It wouldn't cost you any more than $50 per month. https://cloud.google.com/compute/

    Do stocktwits mods have a clue?

    Maybe they require multiple complaints from various people in order to take action against an abusive user.

    3 minute push up challenge

    I'm actually sore in my lower lats, which I wasn't expecting at all from pushups. Go figure. It would probably be a kick-ass experiment to see how many ass-to-floor air squats you can do in three minutes, but you'd probably need a puke bucket for that one. :vomit:

    Snooze patterns vary across cultures, opening eyes to evolution of sleep

    It's funny you ask that because I just bought one about two months ago and it's the BOMB! That pillow is 100% Baron approved. :fistbump::D

    Paying off mortgage

    The financial planner thinks you'll lose a lot of your emergency money if you spend that cash on renovations. So he probably wants you to have more liquid cash in the event you need it, hence the refinance idea.

    3 minute push up challenge

    I don't know because I don't have a bench and straight bar in my home gym. I only have dumbbells. I usually do bench presses with 90lb dumbbells, and I can get somewhere between 15 - 20 reps with that. I can't even remember the last time I tried a one rep max lift of any kind.
