Adult sporting equipment in general is hard to find because if you're an adult who plays a sport you probably really like it and use the equipment until it's busted. Kids grow out of stuff, or lose interest.

I can't find adult ice skates in thrift stores ever. I've been on the hunt for a while, might have to just bite the bullet and spend $150 CAD on a new pair.

Only exception is golf gear because rich guys like buying new equipment.

That entire album/music video for it is such a banger.

The drummer is Louis Cole from Knower. It's kind of depressing to see that I'll never be as good at anything as that guy is at drums

Back in my day if you wanted to see a Stanley Cup you had to wait until someone from a town close enough to you won a hockey tournament and brought it there for the day

I feel this because I can only listen to half of Kali Uchis' albums. The Spanish songs she sings don't hit the same

wait until you learn how derivatives work, it's like if athletes were allowed to bet on their own sports and teams. Literally gambling, but on stonks and agricultural output.

I wanted to learn how this shit works, and the more I speak the language of the finance bros the dumber it is.

Collection of finance stuff (stocks, bonds, derivatives, currencies) that someone like Blackrock sells to you but they manage.

These ones are tied to crypto currency markets, so it involves companies that do bitcoin stuff (like coinbase, or Nvidia who sell mining cards, or companies who do the mining). It's so fund go up when crypto go up, fund go down when crypto down, but it's not directly tied to bitcoin so it's supposed to be less volatile.

It's usually cheaper to buy ETF shares because instead of buying whole shares, you're buying a piece of a medley. And blackrock gets to manage more money (and steer the economy) and make themselves money off of what they think it makes sense to hold, and also make management fees.

the peak of cod was being in high school and playing local multiplayer blops2 zombies until 4am while on mountain dew and gas station snacks.

I then bought the one with kevin spacey and was underwhelmed (but at least it was the one with 'F to pay respects' so it had something going for it)

being able to own and play old games, or emulate old good games probably cuts into profit and the amount people are willing to spend.

Why buy ubisoft bland open world game when i already own and can play 10 year old ubisoft bland open world game that does the exact same thing (but with less microtransactions)? Why buy the new cod? The good games with some originality gets lost when they break compatibility and don't let you play the thing you 'bought', but they don't really care.

SteamStub DRM remover

Why run either Goldberg or SteamStub? Is it so I can download my friend's library or backups and use them myself? Can you play online with them with friends? Idk if I'm really interested but I am curious.
