@Tr0cPr0cL0ck

Alright guys, I am going to be on Noise less for the next probably 2 weeks. I just got New World and this stupid game is addicting lol

@Tr0cPr0cL0ck

This is starting to get really annoying honestly. Windows 11 is a trainwreck if you want my opinion. Microsoft should have developed a way to either enable SecureBoot/TPM2 or leave it as a way to bypass it. The PC Health Check literally tells me to contact IT. I AM IT. I have enabled Secure Boot and even gotten all new keys and still no dice.

@Tr0cPr0cL0ck

After doing a lot of digging I figured out my current PC does not have Secure Boot as a supported solution (even though I turned it on in the BIOS) which is why I can't upgrade to Windows 11. The reason is because my nvme drive is setup as MBR and not GPT. In order to setup GPT I would basically need to reinstall Windows on it.... and yeah I am not about to do that today. Maybe a month or so down the road when I have more time :) Who knows maybe it will fix a few other…

@Tr0cPr0cL0ck

I got to say... going off the Crypto Grid for a few days while playing New World has been refreshing. The only crypto related things I have done is play 2 games in Rollercoin each day (1 in the morning and 1 at night), claimed and staked my SPS on Splinterlands, tipped like 4 articles on Publish0x. It has been relaxing sort of :)

@Tr0cPr0cL0ck

You can see my super small amount of TLM... well that is because I just sold it all the other day because YOLO lol I honestly don't know how I feel about Alien Worlds anymore. Like I will always love it because well when TLM got listed on Binance I made a LOT of money. But on the other hand the dev team has completely stagnated with development. Sure the new UI is fresh and clean and okay I guess. But what was wrong with the old UI. They are just moving at a snails pace in…

@Tr0cPr0cL0ck

I said screw it and decided to buy a Lootbox in Rollercoin. I did because I found out the drop rates for each one. So for 20 RLT I bought a Lootbox. And what does my lucky self get? I got the Epic "Prescilla" which is 100.000 Gh/s and it had a 4.5% of dropping which is crazy lucky for my first drop. #Rollercoin

@Tr0cPr0cL0ck

I keep trying to think to myself "What is the next great technology that will change everything". If you look back the Personal Computer changed everything The internet changed everything The smartphone changed everything Blockchain is changing everything. Each time a new technology is released there is so much time and effort that goes into them with programming and design and Research. There has to be a point right where there isn't anything new and groundbreaking that we…

@Tr0cPr0cL0ck

WTF is going on with Ethereum today? Coingecko was shut up with phone notifcations about 8% rise, 10% rise,, 5% rise... BTC, ETH, LTC, and ETC are doing super well today it looks like

@Tr0cPr0cL0ck

I have never really cared about Nascar or even more so Formula One. I went to 1 Nascar race because my buddy was SUPER into Nascar in High School. But I just started to watch the Netflix show "Formula 1 Drive to Survive" and it is super interesting and honestly thrilling to watch.

@Tr0cPr0cL0ck

I made the decision to switch my primary boot drive from MBR to GPT. Which required odd 3rd party apps I didn't trust or reinstalling windows from scratch. So I went with the 2nd option :) My only problem is that I didn't write down my Brave Sync Code...... so all my bookmarks are lost lol FML

@Tr0cPr0cL0ck

I go to tell you guys. It is refreshing to have completely lost all my Brave Browser bookmarks. (it was my own fault) but still not having a million things at the ready and having to remember all the sites I want to visit is refreshing and very decluttering and freeing..

@Tr0cPr0cL0ck

Why do we say "Good Morning" when in reality only like 10% are probably having a good morning. I mean who actually has a "good morning"? Good Day, yeah I could see that more. But mornings are not fun or good haha. #RandomThoughts

@Tr0cPr0cL0ck

Fun story. I lost access to my Anchor account :) I setup the WAX Wallet called TrocProcLock via Anchor because well A) I wanted my name as my account B) I wanted a seperate account to sell off my NFT's And wouldn't you know that I only backed up my Key Pairs to my Anchor wallet and not my actual Mnemonic Key. So yay me. That is super annoying :( Couple hundred WAX lost

@Tr0cPr0cL0ck

Good News!!!!! I got back into my Anchor Wallet. Woohoo. So you are able to get back in with your KeyPair from Wax Cloud Wallet. You just have to not select the "recover account" option in the beginning. You do into setup a account and then select the option to basically use a already setup account and then enter your keypair. Easy peasy. But needless to say I already created the Backup file so it won't happen again lol

@Tr0cPr0cL0ck

So we can officially buy Chaos Legions packs now? I see that my 276 SPS staked has gotten me 0.134 Vouchers so far. 0.067 per day it looks like. After 30 days I will have 2.01 Vouchers by my calculations. And I have 8,054 credits so that works out well for me. 10% discount if you pay with SPS... not sure I will do that #Splinterlands

@Tr0cPr0cL0ck

So yesterday I upgraded my Desktop PC to Windows 11 and then last night I saw my phone had an update to Android 12. It was a good day!

@Tr0cPr0cL0ck

Today I learned it is Britain's fault the USA uses the word Soccer to describe 'Football' Back in the 1800's the British people took the medieval game of "football" and adapted their own rules and started playing it. But in order to keep the rules standardized they created various organizations. "Rugby Football" was one and that is the game we know of Rugby. One of the other associations was called "Association Football" which was later shortened to "Assoc" which was then…

@Tr0cPr0cL0ck

You know what is annoying? They announced the Leaderboard for who has bought the most Chaos Legion packs already. The #1 person is "SMALP" who has played a total of 3 games since March 2019... and has a power level of 24,765,650... WTF #Splinterlands

@Tr0cPr0cL0ck

I am playing the "GIFT Charity Gig" Special Mission and it says each time I was rewarded 0.1 GIFT..... WTF is "GIFT". I can seen it in game or even on the Hive Engine Wallet. So what is it exactly? #RisingStar

@Tr0cPr0cL0ck

It's a nice feeling when I log back in after a few weeks and the total amount to collect is roughly the same as my total already! WIN I guess

@Tr0cPr0cL0ck

I finally figured out why I am not a fan of Season 2 of RollerCoin... I was just not prepared for the level of commitment it required to level up. It is a little insane how many games you need to play each week to get the XP from the quests. I mean the Season Pass is also stupid expensive this time as well.

@Tr0cPr0cL0ck

I just found out I have earned $43 worth of Starbits from Rising Star so far since I started playing. Which doesn't take into account all the packs I purchased with Starbits and the amount of HIVE I swapped Starbits for previously and spent elsewhere. Not bad return on investment I think with only more and more Starbits to come my way!

@Tr0cPr0cL0ck

Alright guys I need some help. I am looking at electric scooters for the kiddos. Something like the attached picture. Has anyone bought one? What brand do you recommend? I need one that will hold a 50lb kid and a 130lb teenager. I am not looking at the stupid $500 ones. I am cheap. There seem to be plenty that have a 120lb weight limit which would work for 1 kid but I need a not as crappy one then for my other kid.

@Tr0cPr0cL0ck

It's official I have over 300 SPS now! With an approximate value of $156.72. Purely from just playing the game and spending maybe $20 in crypto on it. $10 for the spellbook and I would say 5 packs of cards at $2 each. That is a good ROI especially since we are only 92 days into the 356 day airdrop. That is 1/4 the way through so in theory at the end of the year I will have $600 in SPS or 1,200 SPS tokens. I also have 0.609 Voucher Tokens so I am close to being able to buy my…

@Tr0cPr0cL0ck

I apologize for the constant posts but WTF... Now you don't earn DEC after each battle unless you are in Bronze 2 or higher? WTF Splinterlands. There are those of us who suck at this game but still enjoy it and now you have given up crap daily quests rewards and no DEC for winning. So what is the point to playing if we are not good and stuck in lower levels?

@Tr0cPr0cL0ck

Google coming through again. Local Guide perk of 15% off a pair of Google Pixel Buds A-Series. If I was in the market for new headphones I might get them.

@Tr0cPr0cL0ck

I just got the Noise task to rate things to get $2. You basically have to rate 50 noise's from "Really Bad" to "Excellent". I like how it doesn't show you who posted it but just shows you what the noise is.

@Tr0cPr0cL0ck

Honest Question: If you post something mean or hurtful I will report and block you.. Fair warning I received an e-mail today and in the sender's e-mail signature it had his name and then (he/him) after his name. And it got me thinking more about people picking pronouns. Now let me set the record straight, that I totally approve of each person getting to decide 'what' they want to be called and how they identify as. However I started to wonder.. Wasn't that the point of using…

@Tr0cPr0cL0ck

I have been looking at other options of late to purchase real world items with Crypto. I have for a while used Shopping.io and they have never steered me wrong. However I wanted to purchase a GPU from ebay and Shopping.io will not fulfill any GPU orders. So I started to do some searching and came across Crypto.com. Does anyone use Crypto.com to checkout on various sites? Does it support Amazon or Ebay? Is Crypto.com KYC?

@Tr0cPr0cL0ck

I think tomorrow I am going to trade some crypto for more Theta... I have a good feeling about it in the short term. TFUEL is up 8.5% over the past 14 days THETA is up 4% over the past 14 days. While both had a little high a couple days ago and since been brought back down. Since TFUEL is worth more than normal compared to THETA I might trade up some of my TFUEL staking rewards (TFUEL) for Theta... What do you think?

@Tr0cPr0cL0ck

I got annoyed that leveling up in Rising Star is taking forever. Specifically to get to level 75 so I can do the Band Auditions. Soooo I spent some time and figured which Missions were the most cost effect based on time and based on Energy. Turns out I have been wasting my time doing the "Local Mini Tour Support" mission... Now I am only doing the "Shopping Mall" mission. It has the highest rate of return for XP based on minutes required per mission of 2.18 XP per minute. It…
