The liotes project discussion for SPS is asking for feedback on how to use the SPS they have in the account. If you are involved in the project (LENM), then feel free to give your feedback.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Stake it. There's no better use of it as of now!
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yea 500 SPS isn't really big enough to do too much. With it staked, there will be more options and they can sell off the vouchers to generate some funds.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yes, that could be a nice little bump in their investment. SPS is going to spike very soon. Possibly just before 18th oct.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
It could but the SPS APR has been dropping since a ton of people are staking.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yeah. Sad to see less SPS to claim. :(
They told everyone that it's valuable. 😂
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
UTOPIS getting staking function.. If you plan on staking the tokens, you will get some extra 10% dividends. Otherwise you can leave in your wallet and collect the tokens as normal.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Utopis is on a mission to create Utopia. 😬
I will happily stake them.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That's nice. I'll defintely be staking mine because I'm not planning on selling them anytime soon
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That was my plan as well since UTOPIS is a pretty good long term investment.

About 10 months ago @traciyork published a post about how using crypto and blockchain technology impacted her finances:
The imapct was about more than just the crypto.

Nice story and also very well written. She is a very good author

Well that is definitely an interesting image.

LOL well it is not the best approach to new technology but China is not going to be the only one going Draconian.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I might as well add India too. Future of crypto is quite uncertain with a small ray of hope. Everyday new users are joining in which is a great sign.

Some more info on SPK Network. I really like how they are regularly breaking down all the aspects of the project. It really helps me to get a better grasp on the whole thing.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
This is great because they have a very complex architecture. It makes it easier to understand what's going on.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
It is nice to see them moving along and giving people it in pieces. This is truly something that is going to be major.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Spk Network folks on Cryptomanics wen???
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Haha they been there a few times already
But I wouldn't complain if they returned. It's always a great talk
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yeah, I have heard them once. But now that things are clear and we have a roadmap too, it seems like a good time to have them here.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
It's a complicated project. I haven't really bothered to read through it because I just wait for others to break it down for me.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Complicated indeed!
I read the light papers a couple of times and this standalone posts too and I still don't get all of it
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Do you like earbuds like AirPods or over-the-ear headphones?
I like OTE headphones because they help me cut off completely from the world. ✌
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Never used them.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Okay Task, so do you use giant speakers with a huge woofer to boost things up? 😁
I don't use them otherwise the society I live in would kick me out.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I don't mind but it depends on what I am doing. If I am playing a PC game then OTE headphones.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I normally like OTE Headphones but they are too big for travel. So when I am moving then earphones or earbuds.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yea earbuds and earphones are easier when you are traveling. I like OTE headphones if I am playing games on PC because I am at home.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yes, they are the best for gaming and listening to music without disturbing others.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I prefer OTE but when I'm out on the streets I use earbuds because they are more discrete
Oh, I also prefer earbuds to play guitar because they don't limit my mobility as much. OTE are not very comfortable when I'm playing, even if they are wireless
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Makes sense! With earbuds you have mobility and flexibility. But they always fall off from my ear. I have tried many different ones but none of them fit properly. That's a downside I face in particular.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Earbuds all the way!
OTE headphones are too hot and uncomfortable for me, especially on the go.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Okay, OTE Headphones with soft ear cushions are my preferred choice, otherwise, it would give you headaches after some use.
Earbuds \m/
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
OTE all the way. Airpods and earbuds feel like insects buzzing in my ear. It also lets people know to leave me alone. OTE gaming headphones are especially useful.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Haha, I also love the put my headphones on but don't press play just so people won't chat, technique.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
** 2 thumbs up **
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Works like a charm. Sometimes avoiding people is necessary for mental health. 😂
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
LMAO. Best use case of OTE headphones. 🙏

TikTok officially has a billion users. Facebook has around 3 billion. Can it overtake Facebook?. I think it can takeover Facebook and Instagram combined. They have created a mind-blowing product and their algorithm is great for visibility.
We need something like Tik-Tok built on Hive. A truly decentralized version of a mini-video sharing app.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Can we create an application that gets hundreds of millions of users in the decentralized world?
As for TikTok, no because FB has many different applications.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I think we can and many Hive Dapps have to potential to scale that much. Splinterlands can attract millions of users for sure.
Right. If you just compare the social media app of Facebook and Tik Tok, then they are head to head. FB is too big because they are almost everywhere.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
No I don't think TikTok will ever takeover Facebook. Facebook has Instagram as well so I am sure they share a user base and I doubt people would want to lose the easy login for Facebook.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I think they need to create a Tik Tok login service to get another use case.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
If I had to choose between facebook and tiktok, I would choose facebook since tiktok is owned by China.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Tik Tok is owned by China but Facebook is no different. For me, all of them are the same. Tik Tok is banned in India so for me, there's no point in using it.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yea both are bad and I don't want either as a gatekeeper.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That's why we need decentralized social media apps that could replace them eventually.

#Terrive -- https://terrive.one
It's Hive's version of Instagram, and it permits uploads of not only images but short video files.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
YES! This, we need this to develop further. But I don't see much action from the Dev's side. Do you have any updates on this Magna?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I don't have experience with IG, so I can't compare it with Terrive. It's a straightforward program still a working prototype, but developers have made improvements based on suggestions from testers (including me).
The prototype is far enough along that it can be used like any other dApp. My main form of communication was through D.Buzz to one of the developers, @appukuttan66, and he was very responsive to the concerns I had raised (UX and controls).
I'm not sure what's new regarding Terrive, but anyone can use it even as a working prototype.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yes, a working prototype is fine. But I want to know any other update about this. Do we have a roadmap? What's the next phase of development? That'd give us some idea about what to expect and when to expect.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
At the moment I don't have any information like that. When I get back from the appointment later today I can do some research on that.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Dear @magnacarta and @finguru ,
Terrive is an indie project, so IG development is slower than expected because there are limits to what just 1 guy can do 😉. I do work on Terrive whenever i can but i also have to take care of the all real world stuff. Right now, I am doing a major rework for terrive ( not just for #trhome posts, but for all posts ) for more "simpler" page structure so it's easier to add new features in the future 🙂. So, the rework might take time but is worth it for scalability.
Talking about Technology, What kind of smartphone do you use?
Android or Apple? And also tell me why.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Android.
The cost.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I really like Apple products but I agree, they are shit costly.
That's why I use Android too. Plus I can install any damn app without rooting the device. Even the ones that are banned on Play Store or not available.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
This is the math you need to learn:
1.01365 = 37.8
0.99365 = 0.03

I need to get my Layer 2 tokens above 1.0. If I can't, I'll find a way to swap them out for HIVE, LEO, or POB.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I mostly swap my Layer-2 Tokens to invest in other Layer-2 tokens. 😁 LEO is one I buy the most and then other Dividend Tokens. Sometimes I also put some funds in Cub Finance.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Android. Like taskmaster said, the cost is the major factor for me.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Same here. Apple products are shiny and the shine comes with a cost.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Android
As good as Apple stuff is, I don't think it's worth the price they charge
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yes. Not worth anymore. They used to have unique features but now it's all the same.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Well I actually don't mind their labtops. It might be an easier way then getting linux working for developing software. I still have my macbook and it makes the process a bit easier.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Apple because of how simple and connectable devices are.
Avoid the latest release hype and costs are no worse than Android.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Maybe in Australia, there are no major cost differences but in the USA it is. Also, in India, I don't why Apple products are so costly. Moreover, we don't have good service too. So that's why I choose android.
But if I had enough money, I would have got each and every product that Apple makes. If you buy one Apple product, you should get others too that you need. They have created their own ecosystem.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I mean don't buy the latest model iPhone and you can avoid the high costs.
After getting annoyed at the ridiculously expensive phone plan I was on, I recently downgraded to an iPhone 8 which was just $250 outright.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That's a really smart way to go about it. ✌
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Android-- just on principle. Apple oversees a closed ecosystem, and it treats its customers with disdain.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Oh yeah, because Google is the moral choice ;)
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I picked Android in 2011, which was years before I discovered that Google made its heel turn. Unlike with iOS, it's possible to blow out the Android version that came with the device and install a less-intrusive modified Android OS in its place. It's even possible to use a de-Googled version of Android on certain phones or simply buy a de-Googled Android device.
Android devices let you install app files from alternate app stores, so no one is required to use Google Play except for the absolute essentials. Android devices also accommodate some form of SD card for extra storage. In the case of media files, Android phones let you sideload them onto the device-- audio files, video files, other data files.
Neither Google nor Apple are paragons of virtue to be emulated, but it's possible to neuter Android devices as much as possible. Doing the same with an iPhone turns it into a horrendously priced crystal brick.
When a decentralized and open-source alternative to Android (and iOS) comes along, I will jump that that one.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I thought it was the opposite. 🙄
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
The first few versions of iPhone used standard screws which used standard screwdrivers for unscewring the screws. Then one day Apple switched to weird screws which required a weird screw diver for unscrewing the weird screws. Apple did this in response to people opening the devices on their own, thus forcing iPhone users to visit the Apple Stores for any fixes.
Something as simple as replacing the battery is easy with an Android phone, yet iPhone users have no choice but to visit the Apple Store to deal with that problem.
Then there are the developers who have apps on the App Store pulled after some time for bogus reasons. These incidents would be more familiar to people here.
Apple is so great at marketing that many people using its products are fanboys and fangirls of the products, yet Apple treats these same customers as if it owns them and can do whatever it wants to them. That's the impression I got from iPhone users I know.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I agree this is a very stupid problem. Also, the maintenance and service costs are so high. Just imagine if you break the screen. Either go with a fake one or get ready to pay so much money that could get you a better android phone than your costly iphone. 😂
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I know many iPhone users who preferred living with cracked glass than getting it replaced. While there are places which could replace the cracked glass on an iPhone, these places are not "authorized Apple dealers."
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yes, if you put on a fake glass, that could actually damage your phone even more. Apple products are not great with third-party components. Only the ones, they chose for us.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Nothing exactly new here to us, but it's always nice to read stuff like that on non-crypto media
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yea so long as they choose something with low fees.

Reading a recent article by @ edicted where he talks briefly about securing his crypto assets, I realized I never really paid enough attention to this matter. Of course I don't have nearly as much crypto at risk as he does but it's something I want to look more into from now on.
That being said, what security measures do you take to ensure the safety of your crypto?
Cold wallets? Hardware wallets? Exclusive devices for crypto transactions? Share your tips!
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I just use exodus and atomic wallet on desktop for now. But I do want to diversify and secure my assets too. Especially bitcoin and ethereum are precious to me as rest I am just burning to FIAT.
Interesting. I don't know either of those services you mentioned so I'll look them p
Thanks for sharing!
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Same. I might have to check as well.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Exodus and Atomic support which cryptos?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I haven't bothered trying to secure it as much...but I think I should probably think about it soon enough.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yea, I'm only now starting to think about it... I didn't have a lot of crypto so I wasn't really worried but now that I'm holding a bit more of it, it can be important to play it safe
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I don't click on random links at all.
I keep my keys safe and only use my posting key on different systems and only use active key whenever required on a system which is offline almost all the time.

True. Forget 5 year pattern. Just look at the past year when we hit 100k. Dips will become smaller than the bounces.

Thanks for doing all the good work. I think we can get that to 10k. The strong start helped quite a bit I think.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Cheers J. The momentum early on was lost during the middle but we bounced back nicely.
There's one concern I have. There must be 200-300 odd comments that are not posted from Leo Finance front end. So we might have to do a 1000 in 2.5 days just to be on the safer side.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I don't think the giveaway stated that they had to be from LeoFinance. Obviously 200-300 using other platforms is a great percentage so far. It's less than 5% for sure.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Let's hope this particular point doesn't screw with our hustle. 200-300 and even 500 is fine. I hope it's not way more than that.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I havent been around much of late so I havent seen the posts by @amr008. Will have to look at his latest report.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
The latest report was almost 8-9 days ago...and I think we were around 6.1k or 6.2k. So we needed to cover 3.8k comments or so over 10-11 days.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I think we are still around 1.5k comments short. Need to push a lot in the last three days. We badly need a 500 comments day.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yea I am wondering just how far behind we are...but there is no way of knowing unless someone wants to add up the comment counts.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I will do it later tonight and let everyone know! Life sucks without @amr008. Come back soon bro.

Well this is total bandwidth, not just the internet service.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yea I don't like that there are only a few companies that control most of the internet in the US either.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
It hinders the net neutrality concept. I hope this changes all over the world. I can actually count the number of ISPs because they are very few. 😶
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
It's a few companies which control most of the Internet in the United States because the government provided subsidies to favored companies. This made barrier to entry higher than needed for competitors. It also didn't help that cable television companies got involved.
Along the way, older but serviceable technologies such as landline from the telephone companies virtually disappeared. Yes, almost everyone uses mobile telephones. But if an emergency or disaster takes place and and the cell towers get clogged or put out of commision, the landline serves as an excellent low-tech backup method for communications. The Northeast North American blockout of 2003 and Superstorm Sandy in 2012 validated those points for me.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Same here. The government only allow for some companies to operate which gives them no incentive to improve their services since they can rest assured that no other competitor will come to grab a bite on their market share

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Flying cars make sense in a different world. The world as it is today can't handle flying cars the way it can road cars. Besides, how do the cars land? Cars as planes need runways, and cars as helicopters need "personal space" away from other cars as helicopters.

Personally I prefer the "Replicator" from Star Trek. That will make the production of anything inexpensive and near instant.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I'm not ready for Star Trek-style transporters, but replicators for food would be awesome. We may be on the road to that and other things with 3D printers. It would be nice for us to use technology from Stargate to travel across vast stretches of space.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Molecular assemblers and carbon nanofactories are even more interesting.
3-D printing is going to be a phase in the process. Things are moving quickly.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
3-D printing is definitely an early step in the evolution of replication technology. One good use for it these days is to compensate for the supply chain crunch by printing parts that are needed on a small scale, especially if the parts aren't easy to acquire to begin with.

HBD still floating under a dollar. Last I looked it was at 93 cents.
If you are looking to pick up some with some fiat money, might be a good time.
Just a suggestion.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
We are still getting HIVE also so the HBD out there is still too big. Is anyone doing HBD -> HIVE conversions? I don't think its worth it incase HIVE pumps with only a 7% margin.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
It is now down to 91 cents. So we will see.
Not sure it is as attractive since the margin is a lot slimmer.
Plus the entire market seems to be in a holding pattern. Not a lot of green out there.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yea the price doesn't seem to stick to the peg that well. I thought the HBD stabilizer project already has enough funds to maintain it for the most part. But the recent days has shown that it can't keep the prices up.

That's true. When even Lambo is thinking about it, it's a clear sign that there is no way back form here now

An electric Lamborghini sports car is like a politically correct killing machine. The killing machine will still kill you, only it uses the proper pronouns and PC catch phrases as it kills you. There's no point to a PC killing machine, and there's no point to an electric Lamborghini sports car.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I'm in the minority here when it comes to electric cars and other vehicles, but I think it's a waste of time, effort, and resources for LAMBORGHINI to make an electric sports car.
Making electric tractors would make more sense for Lamborghini. They could sell more of them, and recharging them would be easier.

That's an interesting idea actually
I guess it will take a little longer for the EV infrastructure to get to rural areas but it's a great market

It's one thing for electric vehicles to take over from internal combustion engine vehicles in a way which makes sense over time as the infrastructure is built out and the technology improves.
Unfortunately, we're being force-fed electric vehicles before they are fully sustainable with their required infrastructure-- and it's all because companies favored by the government are providing them subsidies courtesy of taxpayers. As long as this happens, it won't end well for many people and some companies.

Input Output Hong Kong (IOHK) will do for Cardano (ADA) what Apple did for iPhone apps:
Couldn't Hive be able to host an app/dApp store? One for Android, one for iOS, one for any other operating system which has a store.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Well it could...but I don't really think it is needed. Most of the things work directly on a website.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Sometimes the web site goes down-- hacking, natural disasters, critters chewing through cable. It's good to have a mirror or at least an alternate place one can visit to download mobile apps.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
True but I think if the website goes down, I think the app would also have issues.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Also, it's not about using the app on the web site. It's about using Hive or some other blockchain to serve as a repository for the APK files used by Android and whatever app files are used by iOS devices. IPFS can be used with Hive to store the files anyone can download from the app store alternative.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Ah that would work I guess. I am not so sure if we need to go that route since anything can be downloaded online pretty much. Then we would also have to worry about people uploading malware and viruses.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I guess it could but do you think there would be any benefits in that?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
If you're an independent developer of mobile apps, you want them available at app stores for Android and iOS. However, you would be at the mercy of those app stores due to their policies (the Apple App Store is notorious for this). If those app stores decide to take down your app or ban it, where do people find your app?
One place would your own web site. However, your hosting provider may be as much of a ninny as the app store which booted you. Parler is the textbook example of this.
So where else would you go? Make your app available via blockchain. Many developers can do that. Going one step further, someone could set up a blockchain-powered app store for mobile phone apps (or any other kind of apps, for that matter). I picked up this idea from @demotruk, and the idea makes sense.
Blockchain is immutable and censorship-resistant. If it can work for social media and multimedia content, why not mobile app or entire app stores?

Oh ok, that makes sense. Cut the middle-man and the watchdog at the same time

It's easy to forget that Bitcoin (BTC) undergoes regular upgrades:
A few of the upgrades concern privacy protection.

Well the upgrades takes forever to come out. When other chains are doing things every week or so, it's easy to forget what BTC is doing.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
It looks as if Bitcoin Core undergoes nearlt 2 upgrades a year. Ethereum isn't exactly quick with its upgrades, either, if we go by the most recent hard fork.

That is probably a constant issue with networks as they get bigger. It requires more work to get everyone on board for the changes.

I recall reading a while ago that when asked about Ethereum's switch from PoW to PoS, Vitalik Buterin said the biggest problem would not be technical but personal. It looked as if not everyone wanted to make the switch, but make the switch they would do.

In 13 years look what Bitcoin and crypto has done to technology in daily life. Imagine what changes can take place after the crypto markets mature and Bitcoin becomes just another crypto.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I really hope that is the path we will take. And I think it's going way beyond crypto too. I can see blockchain technology being used for social governance, law-making and many other fields in our daily life.
I'm not sure if there will be one blockchain to rule them all but I'm confident that the world will run on blockchain tech
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
"One blockchain to rule them all" would be the greatest error for cryptocurrency and blockchain. It would defeat the purpose of decentralized money. On top of that, it's genuinely dystopian.
However, blockchain makes sense for the uses you described earlier plus more we haven't even imagined.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I agree! I think many different blockchains with proper interoperability among them is the way to go

It would be like trade and commerce in pre-Industrial Revolition times. Different countries had their own gold coins, but all were accepted everwhere because what mattered was their weight/mass and purity. It could be similar with crypto over time.

Transition periods tend to be difficult even for those who embrace them. It's transition periods which give organized labor grief, too, since it takes a while to figure out how best to game the new system in its favor. It's one reason for opposition to labor-saving technology.

For the last 4 weeks I've been burning through Resource Credits like crazy. At the moment I'm near 16%. I may be able to finish the month with some RCs left in the tank, but I'll be away for a few hours to let them recharge a bit. Like the T-800, I'll be back.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Ah I guess you will be having issues with RCs given your comment amount. Depending on how much you want to engage, I think 500 HP or so might be the better amount to ensure your RCs won't be in trouble.

I have the same amount spared so that I don't have to worry about them running out. ✌️

For the push to 10K comments, I'll comment as much as I can for as long as I can. After that is done, I'll settle back to less that the current activity but more than the previous activity. Those comments won't type themselves!

Just comment when you have the time or resources to do. Nobody will blame you for missing a few days due to real life.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Thanks for understanding. When the new month starts I'll cut down on activity to give the RCs a chance to replenish. As long as real life is OK the rest of September and the RCs are present, I will continue.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
You can set aside 500 HP to do that. I have to reach 500 HP first. I'm not there yet.
Longer comments also consume more RCs than shorter comments. If my comments look shorter than usual the rest of the month, you'll know why.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Daily Crypto Markets Live Blog for September 2021.
Have you seen the comment counts lately? They've been insane for some people this month. Before this month, I thought I was busy when I made 20 to 25 comments. The other day I hit 72, and I don't know if I did less or more since. With 3 days left this month, I may be able to weather my predicament.
The other day LeoFinance ate my most recent post due to something stupid I did. It's been getting lots of comments as well as upvotes. If the tribal front-end can't bring up the post for me, I have to use a generic front-end to reply. That eats up RCs as well, maybe even faster than if I used the tribal front-end.
On the bright side, my voting power is back, and my max vote value has increased during this month.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I think any front-end uses up the same RCs for replying back. Just keep growing and you will be fine. The start was also tough for me.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I think he also Delegated too much of it without realizing it.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
My delegations were few and small. My problem was using RCs like they were going out of style and there was no tomorrow. It takes a lot to burn through roughly 250 HP, and by accident I found a way to do that.
I'll go light over the next 6 or 8 hours, then tomorrow I accompany my mother to another appointment for much of the day. That leaves 30 September 2021, and I may as well blow out whatever RCs I have on that day.
Once October starts, my activity will be minimal to let the RCs replenish. Then I get to do it again!!
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Let's go crazy on the 30th and drain that HP then!
