    Momoa is exactly right, gyms are boring.

    I recently cut down about 400 bamboo trees on my property by myself with a chainsaw and let me tell you, that kind of work will whip a man into shape real quick. A couple of years ago, I went to the beach for the weekend and when I was hanging out by the pool, I saw some guy on the other side...

    Study: Caffeine Impacts Expression of Genes Known to Mediate Cardiovascular Risk

    This is absolutely true. I'm more in the two-hour range, and my wife is definitely in the 12-hour range. If she has any substantial amount of caffeine before noon, her sleep that night is completely wrecked.

    Study: Caffeine Impacts Expression of Genes Known to Mediate Cardiovascular Risk

    I know this sounds overly simplistic, but my personal opinion is that coffee/caffeine helps people eat less, hence the health benefits that show up in biomarkers. Same with green tea, matcha, and other beverages.

    Momoa is exactly right, gyms are boring.

    You're trying to squeeze everyone into the same box, but you can't do that. For bodybuilders and fitness competitors, raw muscle mass and having a balanced physique is extremely important since that is how they are judged, so the gym is absolutely necessary. For others, they prefer functional...

    Momoa is exactly right, gyms are boring.

    Because most jobs that require manual labor simply don't work all muscle groups to the extent that a gym workout does. You can get behind a shovel all you want, but your legs will never look like they would if you were consistently doing heavy squats at the gym.

    Trance

    DJing progressive and melodic house is one of my hobbies. I've been really liking a lot of the songs coming from Taly Shum lately:

    Meeting Gensler's demands - how one crypto exchange took the 'long complicated route' to register wi

    "Earlier this year, the CEO of crypto exchange INX told DL News it took 953 days and 15 rounds of negotiations with the SEC to be approved." Wow. That's just ridiculous.

    Day Jobber's Intraday Trading

    He's banned. If he can't figure out how to make a post be useful and not sound like it was copied and pasted from Wikipedia by ChatGPT, there's no point in having him around.

    Money and Freedom

    Personally, I'd replace Money with Passion in your quote above. There are many people in the world who make a lot of money doing a job they hate, and there are many people who are constantly trying to earn more doing whatever they can think of, but no matter how much they make, there's still a...

    BREAKING : XRP wins case against the SEC as it is ruled 'Not a security'

    It's considered a currency for sure in the eyes of users, but from the perspective of governments, regulation, and taxation, it is not.

    BREAKING : XRP wins case against the SEC as it is ruled 'Not a security'

    Believe it or not, Bitcoin isn't considered a currency either. All the major governments treat it like "digital property", meaning that it is taxed like real estate and other forms of property, meaning that you are taxed on the gain in value when you sell it. In terms of the conversion to...

    BREAKING : XRP wins case against the SEC as it is ruled 'Not a security'

    Ok, I'll give you one huge example why it doesn't work with any public asset: Bitcoin is a public digital asset that is not considered a security by any standard definition out there. For one, it's truly decentralized, meaning that you can't say that it was issued by any particular person...

    20 x 150K APEX ROADMAP

    The issue is that the link posted to the TrustPilot reviews above is set to only show 3-star reviews and below. That's why Ztrader888 said that 99% of all the reviews are negative on that page.

    20 x 150K APEX ROADMAP

    He is saying that if he puts down $5k to get the account in the first place, he basically has to turn that into $10k in order for him to withdraw his profits a couple of times each month using the $2750 per 10 days withdrawal limit. He thinks the limitation on withdrawals is bullshit because...

    Here's my house for sale -- any suggestions? Thx

    After looking at all the photos, my initial gut reaction is that this needs to be discounted about $50k below market value so that a buyer can have the necessary wiggle room to bring the house up to date. The countertops and all the appliances are out of date and need to be replaced. Photos 10...

    Here's my house for sale -- any suggestions? Thx

    Couple questions: What's the lowest price you'd sell it for? So what's the gameplan if you sell it? Are you and the old lady going to move somewhere else together or are you going your separate ways?

    BREAKING : XRP wins case against the SEC as it is ruled 'Not a security'

    It seems absurd because the judge must use existing law, i.e. the Howey test as the basis for her opinion. And just to keep things in perspective, the Howey test was created in 1946, about 7 years before the first color television was brought to market, and the original case itself had to do...
