  1. Holy shit, it's up another 25%+ after hours. I thought this deal was done and dusted, but short interest is still around 50% of the float.
  2. Stocktwit bros are posting screen shots of filled orders - one dude bought 700k shares and posted it up. Another claims to have bought 3MM shares this afternoon. LOL WUT!
  3. Whenever you're feeling bearish about any of these stonks, just go check out Stocktwits - those bros are buying into this massive XMET crash. Ballsy, or they are are liars!
  4. Damn, when stonks go pear-shaped, they go real fucking pear-shaped real fast!
  5. We're big kids, no harm no foul - shooters gotta shoot!
  6. Fn free fall on XMET now. I feel like it's too late to bail now, guess I'll drag this boat anchor around for a while now. 🤷‍♂️
  7. I've had orders fill the last two days. I'm liking those shares I got yesterday at $1.38. LFG!
  8. I had a meeting with their CFO at the end of 2019, he's good friends with a client of mine who introduced us. Very nice guy, laid back and seemed like a good dude. I think they are backed (in part?) by Juniper Capital. I never ended up doing any business with them. /CSB

    Starlink

    I signed up last year and got the notice this morning that they were taking orders in my area as well. I couldn't sign up fast enough and already put my $99 deposit down with them. Like others on this thread, we live out in the sticks and have long-range wireless delivered by a local company using Ubiquiti gear and get ~3mbs for $50/month. I'll gladly pay for the Starlink gear and $100/month for the speeds they say are being delivered already. Hopefully we get going with them early this fall.
  10. Imagine thinking that this "curiousity" was worthy of starting a new thread in the Cloak Room. Now imagine posting it around that same time that the US just passed 500k Covid deaths. Stanco is still fucking that it's-a-hoax chicken.
  11. Lulz. I slapped myself around a little bit and then put in another buy order at $.77 This is teh suck
  12. Yea, I may just need to stay away from the screen today. My sell finger is getting twitchy af on my stonks that are still well in the green. I'm looking at you TSNP...
  13. That crusty old assbag is a shameless cunt.
  14. That's what I've done on this one. Sold a little less than 50% of my shares at a ~400% gain and am going to let the good times roll with the rest.
  15. I got in on RXMD at the opening bell, some filled at .1198 and some at .1185. I like the looks of this one. I wish I wouldn't have been fighting frozen pipes and shuttling firewood around with no power at home last Wednesday and Thursday, I would have loaded the boat on more TSNP shares.
  16. After being without electricity for the last ~48 hrs, our power came back on a little before noon today out here at lake Nac. God bless Deep East Texas Electric Coop. They were out here working in our area early this morning and made it on to our road around 11 or so. I saw them go up and down the road checking the lines and then we came back up pretty soon after that. I was unaware, but they posted an update earlier and said that only 1% of their service area was on the ERCOT system. Our service was fine with rolling blackouts until the freezing rain started coming down Wednesday morning. After that it flickered a bunch like it does in high wind or snow and then went out for good. I shut off our water at the house and at the street on Wednesday night before going to bed. I let things warm up for a bit after the power came back on today, opened up pretty much every fixture in the house, and started to pressure back up at the street. We have wheel valves in the box for our side so I could open them gradually and see a hose bib flowing. We walked all over the house listening for leaks and shut off fixtures after confirming both hot and cold worked. No problems that we could see and a quick walk through the attic didn't turn up any issues. I'm feeling pretty lucky but will still be on alert for a few days to make sure no slow-burn plumbing gremlins decide to show up. Thanks to everyone for sharing ideas and status updates on these threads. It really made it much easier thinking through all of this BS together. I was team drip inside/wrap outside until we lost power and then was team shut off at the street and hunker down.
  17. This too. Battery tech is rapidly improving. PE that was previously all upstream E&P (EnCap) piling in to battery storage indicates to me the smart money sees this coming as well. I’m heavily invested in E&P and don’t think it’s going away any time soon, but burying your head in the sand and acting like we need to proceed with nothing but fossil fuels and all renewables are worthless is wrongheaded IMO.
  18. It’s not an either/or proposition and constantly seeing people framing it as such is a beating. With EV usage increasing it’s going to take everything - increased wind/battery storage, more combined cycle nat gas plants and the existing nuke capacity currently in operation (preferably all winterized). Combine that with grid improvements and somehow reform ercot and maybe we won’t end up with 50fucking% of the state without power at the same time again.
  19. Yup, out on Lake Nac. What have you seen over there? We have some friends that live off of Appleby Sand that have been without power the whole time since Monday.
  20. Welp, our power went out for good around noon after the freezing rain coated everything in a nice layer of fuck you. I just shut off our water at the street, figured with no heat inside the house I was bound to have pipe issues. I’ve got all the faucets opened up to bleed pressure and hoping for the best. Deep East Texas Co-op sent out a note saying the line damage is worse than after Katrina and Rita blew through and it might take 3 weeks before they can get to all of the repairs...
  21. We’ve been lucky so far here in Nac with the power more up then down. The fucking freezing rain this morning has changed that. The power started flickering and going off for a few seconds before going full off around 10 am this morning. I’m sure a tree is down over a line so it’s likely going to be a few days before the trucks can get out and fix it. The weight of the ice is causing big limbs to fall all over the place. I’ve got a couple of 100+ year old pines in my yard that I’m hoping don’t take major damage. My one hose bib that I couldn’t thaw yesterday with a heat gun freed itself with the increased temp today. I was walking past it and noticed water streaming out from my reinforced cover. My heart sunk while I started tearing through the layers of shit I had put back over it after my last attempt to thaw. Luckily it was just my dumb ass not closing the valve all the way and not a burst pipe in the wall! A small bit of good news, I’ll take it.
  22. I sold almost 50% of my FPVD at .076 this morning for ~400% profit. I’ll diamond hands the rest of it. Had an order fill for more TSNP at $1.05 this morning too. Really hoping that one gets its shit together soon. I don’t mind holding it long term but I’m pretty lopsided with too much of it in my STONk account.
  23. Lake Nacogdoches checking in here. We are on Deep East Texas Electric Co-Op and they've been doing rolling brownouts pretty regularly. The first few times we were out for 15-20 minutes, then 30 minutes each and then this morning we were out for almost 90 minutes before coming back up. But it has always come back and has been more up than down, so I applaud them for their efforts - whatever the hell they are doing. I've been dripping/streaming every faucet in the house and haven't had any inside issues so far. On the west side of our house I have two hose bibs that are frozen up and one of them that is on the other side of the unheated garage wouldn't free up after 15 minutes of a heat gun right on it. I re-wrapped it and am hoping for the best when it thaws out. I think all of my hose bibs are connected to 3/8ths copper lines so maybe they have a little more "give" in them than PVC? It's really sunny and about 24 here right now and I'm thankful for the sun! The snow is light and fluffy and has made for much better sledding for the kids than the last snowpocalypse.
  24. A decent Reddit post on FPVD. It contains a lot of the same information that RC has already provided in this thread, but I do like the links to articles written by the FPVD CEO.
