2023.06.03 16:25 Designer_Green8687 Digital Banks: Which is safer? eSim or physical sim?
I have quite a handful of accounts with different digital banks.
Which do you think is more secure? Using an eSim or a physical sim?
I only know the advantage of the physical sim wherein you can enable a PIN code. But there are still risks of sim swapping, simjacking, etc. where someone who physically holds your sim card can still commit fraud.
As for eSims, I can't Google anything about it. It's basically just saying that fraudsters can't do that much because there's no physical sim card to begin with.
Any insights?
I just want to make sure that I practice security hygiene especially with digital banks that are entirely linked to our phone numbers.

2023.06.03 16:16 IfGeraltwasbrown What's the first canonical move that can be unequivocally be characterized as one made to chase a ring?
Is George Gervin the first canonical ring-chaser? Does joining the 85-86 Bulls even count as ring-chasing? Or is it Wilt joining the Lakers? I don't really think Wilt's move can be characterized as such, considering he was still pretty alright while Gervin was thoroughly past his prime. What do we even categorize as a ring-chasing move? Is it joining some other superstar(s) to win a ring a la 08' Celtics, and the recent Nets, or KD to Warriors; or is it an old superstar, moving to join a contender when he isn't even close to being the number one option: Gary Payton to Heat or Melo to Lakers or DeAndre Jordan to the Nuggets.

2023.06.03 16:15 JustCuriousArizona Comparing Ericsson and Nokia from Q1' 2021 to Q1' 23, Revenue and Earnings
 | Below figures compare Ericsson and Nokia from Q1' 2021 to Q1' 2023, stock price, revenue and earnings in terms of USA dollars. Some observations: submitted by JustCuriousArizona to Nok [link] [comments]
The other thing to note is, both Nokia and Ericsson have determined, as a company, meaning the board is behind this, is that earnings are not that important now, what is important is to invest as much as possible to capitalize on the future coming network market. The previous sentence means that the present Nokia/Ericsson investor should expect huge investment expense by the companies, this is R&D, SG&A and an increase in operation expense (one has to build the factories before it can make the new products). From a wireless network business perspective these changes are not subtle but are big, requires a long time to make the changes, are fundamental changes (for example Cloud networking), will take lots and lots of money, and the changes must be made before 2030 arrives to be a contender in the 2030 wireless networking market. For the investor (us), this means we should expect low earnings, i.e., PE and PB is generally going to be low and the return to investors (profit) is going to be relatively low. The year that we should start seeing a return to investors is likely to start around 2028 to 2030, i.e., PE and PB should go up. Also note, having a large cash reserve will also be important, to hit forecast earnings (cash is often used by respectable/honest companies to reduce expenses to hit earnings, a bit like having an insurance policy, if a company does this often then the market will perceive this as a negative but once in awhile that is partly what the cash is there for, to aid in hitting earnings), smooth out company missteps in chasing the new wireless network and to take advantage of unplanned opportunities. Given the above, the message to investors is that the investor can time average buy for at least the next 3 to 4 years, profit will likely become the focus (not investing by the company) starting some where between 2028 to 2030. If the cycle of investment and profit should repeat, Ericsson's P/B went to 4 at it's peak profit cycle, it is presently 1.43, there is no reason for Nokia NOT to hit P/B of 4. If Nokia does hit a P/B of 4 it has to become a meme stock again, this is unlikely to happen before 2030, so IF it happens it is likely to happen 2030 or after.

2023.06.03 16:09 KKshilling The Founder Journey with Brett Adcock ($2.7 Billion IPO)
 | The Founder Journey: Brett AdcockBuilding in PublicIf you spend any time on Twitter, you’ve probably seen some of Brett’s viral threads: https://twitter.com/adcock_brett/status/1618268570928152580?s=20 Plenty of founders “build in public” like this, but Brett may very well be the most successful of them all. So why would a founder who’s experienced massive success multiple times, and is now building a new startup from 0 → 1 (a time when every second is precious), bother writing detailed and tactical threads on Twitter every week? When I asked Brett about this, he emphasized how helpful is can be for fundraising (at any stage). If Figure, his new autonomous humanoid robot startup, is successful then he’s “going to need to raise enormous amounts of capital.” Building in public, or at least building an audience, allows him to get consistent exposure to prospective investors and top-tier talent. In fact, Brett said he’s already hired over a dozen people via Twitter for Figure. Later on in our chat he hinted that driving positive, founder-led PR (something he’s written about before) was also a factor: https://preview.redd.it/j6dd4em88t3b1.png?width=1087&format=png&auto=webp&s=aeceed51cabfa4a5fea8e175e785349d35f85298 The bottom line is that people want to feel like they’re part of the ideas that change the world, and the founders who embrace that are more likely to build successful startups. Tough TimesIf a startup is successful, it’s easy to look at it through rose-colored glasses. But a founder’s day to day life is typically overrun with problems and trying to solve them:https://preview.redd.it/8e2okapa8t3b1.png?width=1087&format=png&auto=webp&s=bd8766ec9bdc01397a082aad4463daf95446a05a When I pressed him on this, Brett shared that his mindset was not to dwell or fixate on any particular problems — instead, he just treats each problem (large or small) as something else to figure out and solve. This is what sets great founders apart. Huge problems don’t phase them. They don’t let their startup get into a “death by a thousand cuts” scenario because they’re aware of and actively fixing even the small problems too. Keeping yourself at an even keel and not letting the ups and downs sidetrack you from your mission is one of the key founder skills that’s not only hard to teach, but also often not emphasized enough to first-time founders before they start building. https://preview.redd.it/ycblxx9g9t3b1.png?width=1087&format=png&auto=webp&s=dbfe7d83f93e8c6d995b4a2b79d2d5b1b54a0691 Naming a CompanyTake a second and think about the startup with the best name you’ve ever come across. What actually makes it a great name?Successful founders almost never talk about this. In fact, most I know hate naming things — it’s one of my least favorite things to do too. But there is a science to it that can help make it easier. Brett shared his framework on Twitter earlier this year: https://twitter.com/adcock_brett/status/1613551076665626628?s=20 You can break his framework down into these rules:
Take every advantage you can — your startup’s name can be one too. Fundraising AdviceBrett has raised over $1 billion in his career. Given the current macro climate, I asked Brett for his best advice for founders while fundraising: https://twitter.com/adcock_brett/status/1589281462242549760?s=20 He advised that founders not neglect the top of their fundraising funnel. Especially early on, before you know what investors will look for from your startup or how they’ll evaluate it (and you, and the market), founders should treat their outreach like “impressions” on social media. Brett advocates for getting “the story you want to tell” in front of as many people as possible. Track the “impressions”, grow your top of funnel, and see how well (and, more importantly, who / what type of investors) they’re converting through the different steps of the funnel. When we were fundraising for my last startup, we tracked the following statuses within our fundraising funnel:
Brett also shared how it is important to understand the mandates and theses that investors have when fundraising. Virtually every fund has verticals and specific sectors that they are looking to invest in. Almost always, your lead investor will be passionate and have a core thesis around your area of focus. Attacking the Impossiblehttps://twitter.com/adcock_brett/status/1604501998660771841?s=20 The number one thing that stands out about Brett’s overarching founder journey across his three companies is that he keeps taking on harder and harder challenges. First, a software-powered hiring marketplace. Then, electric vertical takeoff aircraft and now, autonomous humanoid robots. After he sold his first company, Vettery, for $100 million it would’ve been so easy for him to go relax on beaches for the rest of his life. At the very least, most founders don’t choose harder problems after success. Brett’s styled his career in the vein of two founders I have considerable admiration for in this regard — Elon Musk and Travis Kalanick. When I asked him why he chose this path he said that, for him, being a founder isn’t about money — it’s about making a real difference and better future for the world (but that it’s completely fine if, for someone else, it actually is about the money). He also compared “hard” startups vs. “easy” ones by saying that “hard” startups (aka hard problems to solve) have advantages:
HypergrowthAs startups experience hypergrowth, new challenges emerge at increasingly quick rates. It’s simply impossible to keep up, and relying on the systems you have in place is key.Brett shared that the best way to solve hypergrowth-related issues, though, is through growth. “Growth cures all things” — it’s intoxicating for your team and helps overcome or reduce the impact of problems. He also pointed out that the biggest factor that allowed him to go from 0 employees to 70 in a short time period was the ability to communicate clearly. And that having singular documents, especially around company culture, that are shared clearly with newly joining team members, can make a big difference. Some more resources - http://surl.li/hpmjz |

2023.06.03 16:04 Burgermeister576 57 [M4F] #Massachusetts - ANR / Breast Play/ Nipple Sucking
I have a bit of a breast fetish and just love sucking on nipples. I'd love to meet someone who loves having their nipples sucked on. It's very enjoyable to me, so it should be enjoyable to you too since I like doing it for extended periods of time.
I'm not looking for sex, but open to it if goes there. The main goal is to just be cuddled up on the couch or bed with your nipple in my mouth.
Age (18+), looks or race are not an issue, but smaller breasts do take priority. 32A to about a 34C is the range I prefer.
I'm single and can host. Open to some car play too.
If we click, it could be something we do on a regular basis.
If interested, send a chat message and put some effort into it. "Hey", "hi", "what's up" and similar low effort responses will just be ignored. Tell me your age, size (number and letter) and location in the first message. Pictures are also nice touch too but not required.
I've chased too many dead ends. I'm tired of the games and the players. Get my attention. Keep my attention. Use full sentences. Show me what you got! Make it happen.
- Unfortunately due to the fake one day account responses, i've had to limit chat responses to accounts 30 days or older. I also don't respond to post comments that say "DM me".

Why does Chase still used embossed credit cards? I mean, it’s literally pointless today. My CSP is sitting pretty for years, meanwhile I just requested my 4th CFU replacement card in like the past 2 yrs or so. The numbers wear off so fast!

So, I was going to pay for rent today, but I can’t access online banking to get funds, because all the sudden I need a one time passcode sent to my phone number. However, I’m abroad and can’t access that phone number. I don’t want to call customer service for this because I don’t have a working phone right now. What can I do to fix this quickly?

2023.06.03 15:01 TallenAtear 2x2.5gb Networks Cards to 4x1gb Synology over SMB Multichannel 460+mb/sec
I have seen various posts and some confusing comments, so I wanted to write up my own experience with SMB Multichannel.
See setup image;
https://postimg.cc/ts8XX51P
I went from my old 1gb switch copy speed of 116mb/sec, to now 300-460mb/sec by upgrading my switch and adding another 2.5gb network card/connection.
This is a way less expensive route than adding a 10gb network card in both the pc and Synology and using a 10gb switch. Right now 2.5gb is pretty cheap for network cards (USBC-2.5gb is under $40, 2.5gb PCI cards are under $30, 2.5gb switches $125, or 2.5gb with a 10gb uplink under $160.) I did purchase a 10gb card but it’s only running at 2.5gb for now. (Canadian Price Samples)
Depending on your Array and Type, and the number of disks used will affect the max transfer speed. This is tested with 5 x 12tb IronWolf drives, 1 x 16tb IronWolf Pro in a SHR1 volume, with 2 x Samsung M2 R / W Cache in a DS1821+
Crystal Disk Mark v8, using 4gb test, shows; 401mb/sec read, and 462mb/sec write (assuming the write cache is helping here)
Anyhow happy with the results of my 2.5gb upgrade at a really reasonable price vs going the 10gb, much more expensive route.
This was all done using DSM 7.2, with no real setting changes or geek stuff on the computer end using Windows 11. On the Synology End, check that;
Control Panel / File Services / SMB / Advanced Settings / Others
- Enable SMB3 Multichannel (Checked)
Control Panel / Network / Network Interfaces
- All four network interfaces showing connected separately - not bonded
The Switch I purchased is NICGIGA 9 Port 2.5gb with 1 Port SPF+ 10gb, fanless and does not get too warm; it’s identical hardware / same pcb board if taken apart and sold in over three flavors; SODOLA, NICGIGA, MOKERLINK, etc)
Great Video about the 2.5gb switches;
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QgLU-HT1E64
Hope this helps someone else that was wondering if the jump to 2.5gb is worth the effort.

2023.06.03 14:45 haberdashcollect The Abridged History of Hololive Ver. 2
The Previous Version
While I was writing the regular State of VTuber World post, I wrote a massive tangent detailing Hololive's history, and decided it would be much better done as a separate post.
I was actually going to overwrite the previous version, but the previous version is too... old, so I thought I would just write a new one. Hopefully I'll update this in September, which would be the end of the current period, and then probably put out Ver. 3 a long time after, if that ever happens.
The history of Hololive are split into 9-ish month chunks.
So, Sora did not start with the most fortuitous occasions. But the luck for VTuber and Sora turned around as Kaguya Luna became the new hit star and ushered in a kind of Cambrian Explosion of VTuber at the time. One of the bigger innovations was that Luna frequently mentioned other VTubers, she coined the term Oyabun for Kizuna Ai, and therefore there was a genuine sense of community building around this newfangled tech. Hololive App went online of December 21, 2017.
Sora was one of the bigger beneficiaries as she was redirected by Siro after her Christmas stream failed to work. Sora started to gain subscribers at a pretty good clip at that point. Sora is sometimes mentioned as one of the secondary heavenly kings along with Fuji Aoi, her close friend to this day.
Cover debuted their second talent, Roboco-san, on March 4, 2018. Roboco was the demo model for the Hololive app, similar to the beginnings of Nijisanji with 1st Gen's model also being a demo. Nijisanji was and is and will be a foil to Hololive. They both started as an app but quickly pivoted to the entertainment industry. Nijisanji's 1st Gen was a revolution - and singlehandedly shifted the meta in a way that will never be done before. And Nijisanji were pumping out great talents every month or so, flooding the market, which further threatened the other companies.
Nijisanji prompted fierce response from the competitor. AppLand, the company responsible for Siro, decided to debut 9 new talents that will operate on a strict weekly schedule, and this approach worked very well. Cover had to respond in turn, and so they quickly debuted 6 new talents, first being Yozora Mel who debuted on May 13, 2018.
First Gen of Hololive - Aki Rosenthal, Natsuiro Matsuri, Shirakami Fubuki - debuted on June 1, 2018 with Akai Haato debuting a week later because she had some tech issues. There was one other person but we do not talk about this person, she basically bribed her way into debut, and after that incident Yozora Mel was folded into this 1st Gen. A recent observation - there is a hidden theme in early VTuber groups, for example Re:AcT was originally called Kageyaki Stars and their talents all had a Zodiac theme, Leona being the Leo, of course, and Kyo being... a virgin? Not sure, actually. This Gen also has a theme, reference much later in the title for their song Plasmagic Seasons, which is of course the Seasons - Akai Haato as Spring, Natsuiro Matsuri as Summer, Aki Rosenthal as Fall, and Shirakami Fubuki as Winter. That extra person really did not fit, especially with the above theme.
Second Gen of Hololive quickly followed, the debut was more spaced out this time. Minato Aqua went first on August 8, 2018, followed by Murasaki Shion on August 17, 2018, Nakiri Ayame was next on September 3, 2018, followed by Yuzuki Choco on September 4, 2018, and Oozora Subaru rounding out the crew debuting on September 14, 2018. Around the same time, on August 1, 2018, another Cover Project launched called Sakura Miko project, which was a return of Kizuna Ai style content.
This odd collection signifies the attitudes of this time, no one really knew what they were doing. There were not many collabs, in fact Hololive members tended to collab with Nijisanji members more than their own members, and many kind of considered Hololive to be kind of a sister group to Nijisanji. Again, the contents were kind of halfway between video and streams, there weren't really long streams, those that did famously Kanae and Korone, were seen as odd outliers. There were a lot of odd and interesting VTuber-industry projects - a fun thing is to watch PL's of future talents interacting with their future workmates, which is obscenely entertaining in some respects.
Sakura Miko project immediately crashed and burned and Miko joined Hololive proper on December 25, 2018. On November 15, AZKi debuted as a part of a collaboration with Cover and upd8, another agency that was progenitor of Kizuna Ai. upd8 ran things differently, it was a 'talent' agency and not a creative one, which meant upd8 did not hold onto any assets of livers. upd8 had a hodgepodge of creators, including one half of 774 inc., which meant AZKi, Inaba Haneru, Patra Suou and Kizuna Ai were technically part of the same agency at this point in November 2018. Oh Shibuya Hal and Utai Meika was also part of this group. Yep, upd8 was a mess, had potential though.
On December 12, 2018, Ookami Mio joined Hololive as part of a new project called Hololive GAMERS, and unlike their other projects GAMERS actually grew a few months later.
They still regularly collabed with Nijisanji at that point. One can go through what is now seemingly bizarre combos - Higuchi Kaede and Roboco, Nakiri Ayame and Inui Toko, and so on... although few still persist to this day, Kamioka Family and its extension NASS and Oozora Family being the two...
But this was the time that Hololive kind of found the identity that we were kind of familiar with. This was also the time that idolization was slowly making its way through the company. The well-remember first Hololive Summer (which was, and still is, a Comiket associated project) was the first time Shiny Smily Story was introduced with the full song being released on September 17, 2019, which led to Hololive 1stFes or Nonstop Story on January 28, 2020.
Hololive extended the relationship with upd8 regarding AZKi to be Innoaka Music and they eventually snagged an indie VTuber named Hoshimachi Suisei, who has been active since March 22, 2018, during the height of the First Boom, announcing this new venture on May 19, 2019. Hoshimachi Suisei was frustrated with the arrangement and joined Hololive proper on December 1, 2019. The inclusion date is more mutely celebrated but their growth more closely tracks with the counterparts who debuting around their inclusion - so in some sense, we should think of Miko as an honorary member of GAMERS and Suisei as a honorary member of HoloForce, which considering her early relationship with Kanata and Coco, might as well be true from a different perspective.
Another push regarding this idolization was the opening of a male branch called Holostars. First talents started appearing in June, with Hanasaki Miyabi on June 8, 2019, Kagami Kira on June 9, 2019, Kanade Izuru on June 22, 2019.
Hololive also started to look beyond Japan, which was largely locked by the immense success of Nijisanji, and Hololive looked towards China. Around late winter and early spring of 2019, Hololive member started to stream quite a bit in BiliBili and started to take in a lot of Chinese sponsors, culminating in the Azur Lane event, which was one of the seeds for their future in North America - indeed many of the early English clippers were Chinese...
It was at this point that Hololive went looking for its third Gen, which had a fantasy theme - Usada Pekora debuted on July 17, 2019, Uruha Rushia on July 18, 2019, Shiranui Flare on August 7, 2019, Shirogane Noel on August 8, 2019, and Houshou Marine on August 11, 2019.
Many consider this group to be the miracle group, but they were kind of isolated for the first few months, many of their streams consisting of group Minecraft sessions. It was a friendship forged from pressure, not a loose one like GAMERS, and it gave a different feeling than the rest. Even today, there is an odd break between 3rd Gen and the gens higher up, except for a couple important exceptions like Aqua-Marine, or Marine in general. Subaru-Noel came out much later, and before that it was actually Rushia-Subaru.
Azur Lane event was on November 26, 2019. During this time, Hololive also opened their ill-fated Chinese branch with Yogiri debuting on September 28, 2019, Civia on November 2, 2019, and Spade Echo on January 30, 2020.
There was kind of an add-on group with Takushiji Suzaku debuting on September 7, 2019, and Arurandeisu on September 8, 2019. Suzaku apparently was really fed up with how Holostars worked so he left early on March 6, 2020. Second Gen followed with Rikkaroid debuting on October 20, 2019, and Astel Leda debuting on December 7, 2019, Kishido Temma on December 14, 2019, and Yukoku Roberu on December 24, 2019. Note this division feels wildly off, with the intra-gen gap being larger than the inter-gen gap. Perhaps this is one of the reasons the first three gens are usually grouped into one super group.
This nicely segues to our next section...
Spearheaded by this new leader, Hololive slowly gain prominence right as the pandemic hit and the Second Boom occurred as Western anime fans looked to VTuber as a replacement for all the delayed anime releases. Hololive was well positioned to take on this second boom, as there were more clips from Hololive... even though Nijisanji pursued a Chinese audiences like Hololive, the Nijisanji clippers were usually Japanese students and therefore preferred longer clips, while Hololive clippers were people bred from things like TikTok and they truly clipped like a fame-chasing clipper would, short condensation of the streamer's character. A very easy and addicting introduction.
There was also the fact that Cover knew their western outreach and also saw the success of people like Hana Macchia, and they decided to slowly branch out to Western audiences, starting with Indonesia, which was also a safe second options since the days of AKB48.
Area15 debuted April 10, 2020 for Ayunda Risu, April 11, 2020 for Moona Hoshinova, and April 12, 2020 for Airani Iofifteen. While their growth was paltry compared to their JP counterparts, they were on the higher side compared to their ID peers, so Cover saw the green light to go ahead and continue developing an western EN branch.
Also Hololive China debuted their 2nd Gen with Doris debuting on April 3, 2020, Rosalyn debuting on April 5, 2020, and Artia debuting on April 11, 2020. Holostar 3rd Gen also debut around this time with Tsukishita Kaoru debuting on April 29, 2020, Kageyama Shien on April 30, 2020, and Aragami Oga on May 1, 2020.
Those three groups tended to stick together, which HoloID had a close relationship with Holostars which would turn out to be fruitful much later in the process.
Hololive started to gain its rapid growth, and as with all rapid growth, there were some growing pains, a large numbers of archives had to be taken down due to increase in copyright notices and Hololive increasingly became isolated from the VTuber world as a whole.
Also, pretty much the rest of HoloForce was struggling. Towa's low voice and her boyfriend fracas, happening since the idol concept has been firmly placed and heavily sold to western audiences, meant Towa lost pretty much all momentum. Watame had her infamous kuso internet which she famously did not apologize for, therefore forever becoming blameless. Luna was a controversial choice as she was a former Nijisanji Liver and kind of known as a vagabond, jumping from agency to agency, but thankfully she found her home in Hololive.
Kanata, even though her hearing was going, managed to stand with a budding relationship with Coco and furthered her relationship with Suisei, who she knew from way before.
Except for Coco, this was a quiet time. Many of the talents were on rest, like Mel or Akirose, which is one of the main reasons they are so far behind, and there was less outside appearance as the company simply tried to wade through their newfound fame.
HoloFive eventually appeared - Yukihana Lamy on August 12, 2020, Momosuzu Nene on August 13, 2020, Shishiro Botan on August 14, 2020, Mano Aloe on August 15, 2020, and Omaru Polka on August 16, 2020. Mano Aloe were swept in a huge scandal and prompt graduated at the end of the month. Considering HoloFive had a long gestation period, even this short stint was a shock to many. Truth be told, Aloe was not in a great mental state, she later attempted suicide falling down several stories, only to be saved by a tree.
There are still people who like to imagine a world with Aloe, but I wonder of a world where the person behind Aloe was swapped with someone from HoloX. Aloe would have been fine by late 2021, and many of the talents from HoloX would have been more than adequate in August of 2020. I think the best switch would be with Chloe.
Even though technically in the next era, Haato-Coco Taiwan Incident would be the final of the three major controversies that rocked Cover as they restructured. Taiwan Incident basically killed off all chances of development in China, along with a separate fiasco that led to the closure of HoloCN with all six members quietly disappearing by the end of 2020.
With all these controversies, Hololive could have gone down in flames, but there was a saving grace or really multiple saving grace that effectively created a shift and an opportunity.
The minecraft server, largely dormant since the beginning of 2020, reopened with the introduction of Gen 5 and continued when Area15 were introduced, with Moona Hoshinova pretty much alighting the Company Rivalry Arc which became the basis for the modern dynamic of Hololive as we know today. The fame of Area15 skyrocketed, the combo of Risu's first NNN and her KING cover didn't detract from that fame at all either...
And their newfound dominance in ID was sealed with the debut of HoloRo - Kureiji Ollie on December 4, 2020, Anya Melfissa on December 5, 2020, and Pavolia Reine on December 6, 2020. Once again, they were heavily focused on outreach with Ollie being the breakout star which sapped any remaining momentum NijiID had, leading to their long and terminal decline for the next three years at least.
Those early months of 2021, defined by the time between Hololive 2nd Fes, Beyond the Stage, and Bloom, Hololive's first original concert, was in my humble opinion, the greatest time in Hololive. The development of the Company Rivalry Arc with the first extended interaction of MiComet, one of the most enduring duos in Hololive much to the chagrin of Nousagis and Heimins. The 2021 Mario Kart Tournament, which brought Towa into prominence and showcased that Hololive can pull off a tournament, one of the major strengths of Nijisanji and the Bouquet album's relative success, especially with the opening song Blue Clapper was instrumental in Hololive becoming a reliable music producer, which left Innonaka without an identity leading to AZKi eventually joining Hololive proper in April 1, 2022.
Another development was the introduction of Hololive Alternative, which was marked by two PVs, first of which debuted on May 5, 2021 with a teaser right after Bloom.
Days after Bloom however were colored by one event, which marks the finality in this era. There hasn't a large graduation - Holostars lost two members Tsukishita Kaoru on July 28, 2020 and Kagami Kira on November 30, 2020... but it was a quiet one, most might only recognize those graduations because of the downed spirit of HoloID at the time. But the graduation to come was the big one - probably the biggest one until Kizuna Ai's hiatus and many would argue even still then, as the age of Kiryu Coco came to close.
The announcement was on June 9, but in hindsight the signs were there since the beginnings of the Hololive Summer Festival, which also marks the start of the end of the Company Arc. The later half of this era felt like a barrel racing towards that final moment. Most watched stream in VTuber stream, probably unlikely to be broken for a long time.
Coco was instrumental in steering the talent's directions, especially in turbulent times such as the year and half in which Coco existed on our screens. Without that sail, Cover and their talents had to go on their own and face whatever demons it may raise...
IRyS debuted on July 8, 2021. She was supposed to be part of a JP/EN collab VSinger group that were probably going to debut in Spring if there were enough applicants, but they were only able to fish one, and she came down (three times) to grace our screens and a month later on August 22, 2021, HoloCouncil made their debut - Tsukumo Sana, Ceres Fauna, Ouro Kronii, Nanashi Mumei, and Hakos Baelz. Less perfect than HoloMyth but still good, and very helpful as there was a Minecraft merger happening. As I explained above, Hololive had a hard time integrating their new members. For the longest time, I had a hard time differentiating 5th Gen because they would just hang out together and rarely with senpais, but the merger and the eagerness of HoloMyth to get fresh blood led one of the smoothest integrations.
This continued with HoloX - La+ Darknesss on November 26, 2021, Takane Lui on November 27, 2021, Hakui Koyori on November 28, 2021, Sakamata Chloe on November 29, 2021, and Kazama Iroha on November 30, 2021. My impression of them was shock, as with many, not only were given only a few hours notice, but it happened right after the infamous 3rd Gen Live. The relative failure of that live and the death of her beloved cat started a decline for one Uruha Rushia, whose aberrant behavior will eventually blow up three weeks before 3rdFes.
Rushia's termination also felt like a barrelling moment in hindsight, but I did not end this era on February 24, 2022, but on the 2nd Day of 3rd Fes, because I want to end on a high note and the 3D debuts of Area 15 and HoloMyth more than enough made up for the sudden loss and confusion of Uruha Rushia. While Rushia left on quite a sour note, Rushia still gets fondly remembered, especially by talents like Pekora and Fubuki... it's interesting.
I should also mention taht 3rd Fes, Link Your Wish, was first to be accompanied by an Expo, which was first done by Nijisanji back in early 2020, right before the pandemic.
The focus for these groups was a change, HoloID now looking inwards back towards Indonesia, marking the rise of homegrown groups like AKA Virtual, and Holostar's idolfication including the de-aging of Aruran. This was followed by a quiet but long integration of Hololive and Holostar, an informal but still significant, which culminates in the year-end concert.
There were quite a lot of concerts in this era, 2nd PV which was on June 11, 2022, the return of Hololive Summer along with the regular spate of summer celebration concerts, there was a kind of fatigue and there was no new debut in sight, at least for a while...
Tempus HQ was quite a turning point - Regisa Altare and Magni Dezmond debuted on July 22, 2022 and Axel Syrios and Noir Vesper debuted on July 23, 2022. Not only did it accelerated the interaction between Hololive and Holostars, but also the EN branches of Hololive and Nijisanji as well, which was a long time coming, considering it was over a year since NijiEN debuted.
Along with Tsukumo Sana's graduation on July 31, 2022, things kind of took a back seat in the fall season as the long preparation for 4th Fes was underway. There was a lull that was unfamiliar since the beginning of 2020 - a nice bookend to the EN boom, which was rapidly fading at this point. In hindsight, it was an appreciative one, or so I think at least.
There was one incredibly bright light and that was Kobo Kanaeru, who along with Hyakumantenbara Salome, was the biggest beneficiary of the Third General Boom, caused the end of COVID restrictions for most of the world. The third Boom was less significant than the first two, but it saw the surge of strong local ID and KR groups along with renewed interest in Japan, which benefitted both Hololive and Nijisanji.
Kobo's obstinately Indonesian nature gave me worry as for integration but I wasn't to be worried because Kobo has quite a sharp wit behind her genuinely childish behavior. Kobo will be remembered for her various connections reaching across all branches, pretty much.
This was good grounds for Kobo. After Our Bright Parade, there was both a lull and an uptick. There was a lot happening - a new studio and an amusement park takeover - but a strange lack of debuts from any branches. One of the longest lack of such, I believe ever.
This might change soon, however, and that's where all our story has to end. I will fill in the rest of the story at the end of this period. And hopefully, I can come back to fill in the next era.

The history of Hololive are split into 9-ish month chunks.
Part 1 - Pre-History {17-09-07 - 18-06-01}
When Tokino Sora first went on NicoNico in the auspicious day of September 7, 2017, there were famously 13 viewers unaccounted for in her debut stream. VTuber as a modern concept started ten months ago with the advent of Kizuna Ai on December 1, and at that point VTubers as a concept was seriously considered a dead end. The Ai's initial hype train died down and newcomers such as Siro did not gain the success that people were hoping for. Many suspect this VTuber fad was going to be consigned into the dustbin of history much like disco and leg warmers.So, Sora did not start with the most fortuitous occasions. But the luck for VTuber and Sora turned around as Kaguya Luna became the new hit star and ushered in a kind of Cambrian Explosion of VTuber at the time. One of the bigger innovations was that Luna frequently mentioned other VTubers, she coined the term Oyabun for Kizuna Ai, and therefore there was a genuine sense of community building around this newfangled tech. Hololive App went online of December 21, 2017.
Sora was one of the bigger beneficiaries as she was redirected by Siro after her Christmas stream failed to work. Sora started to gain subscribers at a pretty good clip at that point.

Part 2 - Early Classical Era {18-06-01 - 19-04-01}
Note this version will not be delving too deeply into the individual members, as they are nicely detailed in Version One. If you want to know what the talents in the agency are all about, then check the previous version which is the top link. This version mostly expands and clarifies things.First Gen of Hololive - Aki Rosenthal, Natsuiro Matsuri, Shirakami Fubuki - debuted on June 1, 2018 with Akai Haato debuting a week later because she had some tech issues. There was one other person but we do not talk about this person, she basically bribed her way into debut, and after that incident Yozora Mel was folded into this 1st Gen. A recent observation - there is a hidden theme in early VTuber groups, for example Re:AcT was originally called Kageyaki Stars and their talents all had a Zodiac theme, Leona being the Leo, of course, and Kyo being... a virgin? Not sure, actually. This Gen also has a theme, reference much later in the title for their song Plasmagic Seasons, which is of course the Seasons - Akai Haato as Spring, Natsuiro Matsuri as Summer, Aki Rosenthal as Fall, and Shirakami Fubuki as Winter. That extra person really did not fit, especially with the above theme.
Second Gen of Hololive quickly followed, the debut was more spaced out this time. Minato Aqua went first on August 8, 2018, followed by Murasaki Shion on August 17, 2018, Nakiri Ayame was next on September 3, 2018, followed by Yuzuki Choco on September 4, 2018, and Oozora Subaru rounding out the crew debuting on September 14, 2018. Around the same time, on August 1, 2018, another Cover Project launched called Sakura Miko project, which was a return of Kizuna Ai style content.
This odd collection signifies the attitudes of this time, no one really knew what they were doing. There were not many collabs, in fact Hololive members tended to collab with Nijisanji members more than their own members, and many kind of considered Hololive to be kind of a sister group to Nijisanji. Again, the contents were kind of halfway between video and streams, there weren't really long streams, those that did famously Kanae and Korone, were seen as odd outliers. There were a lot of odd and interesting VTuber-industry projects - a fun thing is to watch PL's of future talents interacting with their future workmates, which is obscenely entertaining in some respects.
Sakura Miko project immediately crashed and burned and Miko joined Hololive proper on December 25, 2018. On November 15, AZKi debuted as a part of a collaboration with Cover and upd8, another agency that was progenitor of Kizuna Ai. upd8 ran things differently, it was a 'talent' agency and not a creative one, which meant upd8 did not hold onto any assets of livers. upd8 had a hodgepodge of creators, including one half of 774 inc., which meant AZKi, Inaba Haneru, Patra Suou and Kizuna Ai were technically part of the same agency at this point in November 2018. Oh Shibuya Hal and Utai Meika was also part of this group. Yep, upd8 was a mess, had potential though.
On December 12, 2018, Ookami Mio joined Hololive as part of a new project called Hololive GAMERS, and unlike their other projects GAMERS actually grew a few months later.
Part 3 - Late Classical Era {19-04-01 - 19-12-27}
Okayu and Korone were announced on April Fools 2019 and subsequently Nekomata Okayu debuted April 6, 2019 and Inugami Korone on April 13, 2019. Korone's stream was so scuffed that it became the anti-basis for future debut streams. But the GAMERS basically set the tone of Hololive as a company. GAMERS were basically scouted as Fubuki's friends, and therefore GAMERS were the first generations that felt like a group of friends. Most, if not all, relationships between people grew from this seed.They still regularly collabed with Nijisanji at that point. One can go through what is now seemingly bizarre combos - Higuchi Kaede and Roboco, Nakiri Ayame and Inui Toko, and so on... although few still persist to this day, Kamioka Family and its extension NASS and Oozora Family being the two...
But this was the time that Hololive kind of found the identity that we were kind of familiar with. This was also the time that idolization was slowly making its way through the company. The well-remember first Hololive Summer (which was, and still is, a Comiket associated project) was the first time Shiny Smily Story was introduced with the full song being released on September 17, 2019, which led to Hololive 1stFes or Nonstop Story on January 28, 2020.
Hololive extended the relationship with upd8 regarding AZKi to be Innoaka Music and they eventually snagged an indie VTuber named Hoshimachi Suisei, who has been active since March 22, 2018, during the height of the First Boom, announcing this new venture on May 19, 2019. Hoshimachi Suisei was frustrated with the arrangement and joined Hololive proper on December 1, 2019. The inclusion date is more mutely celebrated but their growth more closely tracks with the counterparts who debuting around their inclusion - so in some sense, we should think of Miko as an honorary member of GAMERS and Suisei as a honorary member of HoloForce, which considering her early relationship with Kanata and Coco, might as well be true from a different perspective.
Another push regarding this idolization was the opening of a male branch called Holostars. First talents started appearing in June, with Hanasaki Miyabi on June 8, 2019, Kagami Kira on June 9, 2019, Kanade Izuru on June 22, 2019.
Hololive also started to look beyond Japan, which was largely locked by the immense success of Nijisanji, and Hololive looked towards China. Around late winter and early spring of 2019, Hololive member started to stream quite a bit in BiliBili and started to take in a lot of Chinese sponsors, culminating in the Azur Lane event, which was one of the seeds for their future in North America - indeed many of the early English clippers were Chinese...
It was at this point that Hololive went looking for its third Gen, which had a fantasy theme - Usada Pekora debuted on July 17, 2019, Uruha Rushia on July 18, 2019, Shiranui Flare on August 7, 2019, Shirogane Noel on August 8, 2019, and Houshou Marine on August 11, 2019.
Many consider this group to be the miracle group, but they were kind of isolated for the first few months, many of their streams consisting of group Minecraft sessions. It was a friendship forged from pressure, not a loose one like GAMERS, and it gave a different feeling than the rest. Even today, there is an odd break between 3rd Gen and the gens higher up, except for a couple important exceptions like Aqua-Marine, or Marine in general. Subaru-Noel came out much later, and before that it was actually Rushia-Subaru.
Azur Lane event was on November 26, 2019. During this time, Hololive also opened their ill-fated Chinese branch with Yogiri debuting on September 28, 2019, Civia on November 2, 2019, and Spade Echo on January 30, 2020.
There was kind of an add-on group with Takushiji Suzaku debuting on September 7, 2019, and Arurandeisu on September 8, 2019. Suzaku apparently was really fed up with how Holostars worked so he left early on March 6, 2020. Second Gen followed with Rikkaroid debuting on October 20, 2019, and Astel Leda debuting on December 7, 2019, Kishido Temma on December 14, 2019, and Yukoku Roberu on December 24, 2019. Note this division feels wildly off, with the intra-gen gap being larger than the inter-gen gap. Perhaps this is one of the reasons the first three gens are usually grouped into one super group.
This nicely segues to our next section...
Part 3 - Early Golden Era {19-12-27 - 20-09-12}
HoloForce, as they are rarely called, were truly a force. Amane Kanata debuted on December 27, 2019, Kiryu Coco followed on December 28, 2019, Tsunomaki Watame on December 29, 2019, and after new years, Tokoyami Towa on January 3, 2020 and Himemori Luna on January 4, 2020. Kiryu Coco was an instant hit, growing at a rate seldom seen before.Spearheaded by this new leader, Hololive slowly gain prominence right as the pandemic hit and the Second Boom occurred as Western anime fans looked to VTuber as a replacement for all the delayed anime releases. Hololive was well positioned to take on this second boom, as there were more clips from Hololive... even though Nijisanji pursued a Chinese audiences like Hololive, the Nijisanji clippers were usually Japanese students and therefore preferred longer clips, while Hololive clippers were people bred from things like TikTok and they truly clipped like a fame-chasing clipper would, short condensation of the streamer's character. A very easy and addicting introduction.
There was also the fact that Cover knew their western outreach and also saw the success of people like Hana Macchia, and they decided to slowly branch out to Western audiences, starting with Indonesia, which was also a safe second options since the days of AKB48.
Area15 debuted April 10, 2020 for Ayunda Risu, April 11, 2020 for Moona Hoshinova, and April 12, 2020 for Airani Iofifteen. While their growth was paltry compared to their JP counterparts, they were on the higher side compared to their ID peers, so Cover saw the green light to go ahead and continue developing an western EN branch.
Also Hololive China debuted their 2nd Gen with Doris debuting on April 3, 2020, Rosalyn debuting on April 5, 2020, and Artia debuting on April 11, 2020. Holostar 3rd Gen also debut around this time with Tsukishita Kaoru debuting on April 29, 2020, Kageyama Shien on April 30, 2020, and Aragami Oga on May 1, 2020.
Those three groups tended to stick together, which HoloID had a close relationship with Holostars which would turn out to be fruitful much later in the process.
Hololive started to gain its rapid growth, and as with all rapid growth, there were some growing pains, a large numbers of archives had to be taken down due to increase in copyright notices and Hololive increasingly became isolated from the VTuber world as a whole.
Also, pretty much the rest of HoloForce was struggling. Towa's low voice and her boyfriend fracas, happening since the idol concept has been firmly placed and heavily sold to western audiences, meant Towa lost pretty much all momentum. Watame had her infamous kuso internet which she famously did not apologize for, therefore forever becoming blameless. Luna was a controversial choice as she was a former Nijisanji Liver and kind of known as a vagabond, jumping from agency to agency, but thankfully she found her home in Hololive.
Kanata, even though her hearing was going, managed to stand with a budding relationship with Coco and furthered her relationship with Suisei, who she knew from way before.
Except for Coco, this was a quiet time. Many of the talents were on rest, like Mel or Akirose, which is one of the main reasons they are so far behind, and there was less outside appearance as the company simply tried to wade through their newfound fame.
HoloFive eventually appeared - Yukihana Lamy on August 12, 2020, Momosuzu Nene on August 13, 2020, Shishiro Botan on August 14, 2020, Mano Aloe on August 15, 2020, and Omaru Polka on August 16, 2020. Mano Aloe were swept in a huge scandal and prompt graduated at the end of the month. Considering HoloFive had a long gestation period, even this short stint was a shock to many. Truth be told, Aloe was not in a great mental state, she later attempted suicide falling down several stories, only to be saved by a tree.
There are still people who like to imagine a world with Aloe, but I wonder of a world where the person behind Aloe was swapped with someone from HoloX. Aloe would have been fine by late 2021, and many of the talents from HoloX would have been more than adequate in August of 2020. I think the best switch would be with Chloe.
Even though technically in the next era, Haato-Coco Taiwan Incident would be the final of the three major controversies that rocked Cover as they restructured. Taiwan Incident basically killed off all chances of development in China, along with a separate fiasco that led to the closure of HoloCN with all six members quietly disappearing by the end of 2020.
With all these controversies, Hololive could have gone down in flames, but there was a saving grace or really multiple saving grace that effectively created a shift and an opportunity.
Part 4 - Late Golden Era {20-09-12 - 21-07-01}
HoloMyth arrived on September 12, 2020 for Mori Calliope, Takanashi Kiara and September 13, 2020 for Ninomae Ina'ins, Gawr Gura and Amelia Watson. They were another of the 'perfect' groups, a heaven-sent in the time of multiple disasters.The minecraft server, largely dormant since the beginning of 2020, reopened with the introduction of Gen 5 and continued when Area15 were introduced, with Moona Hoshinova pretty much alighting the Company Rivalry Arc which became the basis for the modern dynamic of Hololive as we know today. The fame of Area15 skyrocketed, the combo of Risu's first NNN and her KING cover didn't detract from that fame at all either...
And their newfound dominance in ID was sealed with the debut of HoloRo - Kureiji Ollie on December 4, 2020, Anya Melfissa on December 5, 2020, and Pavolia Reine on December 6, 2020. Once again, they were heavily focused on outreach with Ollie being the breakout star which sapped any remaining momentum NijiID had, leading to their long and terminal decline for the next three years at least.
Those early months of 2021, defined by the time between Hololive 2nd Fes, Beyond the Stage, and Bloom, Hololive's first original concert, was in my humble opinion, the greatest time in Hololive. The development of the Company Rivalry Arc with the first extended interaction of MiComet, one of the most enduring duos in Hololive much to the chagrin of Nousagis and Heimins. The 2021 Mario Kart Tournament, which brought Towa into prominence and showcased that Hololive can pull off a tournament, one of the major strengths of Nijisanji and the Bouquet album's relative success, especially with the opening song Blue Clapper was instrumental in Hololive becoming a reliable music producer, which left Innonaka without an identity leading to AZKi eventually joining Hololive proper in April 1, 2022.
Another development was the introduction of Hololive Alternative, which was marked by two PVs, first of which debuted on May 5, 2021 with a teaser right after Bloom.
Days after Bloom however were colored by one event, which marks the finality in this era. There hasn't a large graduation - Holostars lost two members Tsukishita Kaoru on July 28, 2020 and Kagami Kira on November 30, 2020... but it was a quiet one, most might only recognize those graduations because of the downed spirit of HoloID at the time. But the graduation to come was the big one - probably the biggest one until Kizuna Ai's hiatus and many would argue even still then, as the age of Kiryu Coco came to close.
The announcement was on June 9, but in hindsight the signs were there since the beginnings of the Hololive Summer Festival, which also marks the start of the end of the Company Arc. The later half of this era felt like a barrel racing towards that final moment. Most watched stream in VTuber stream, probably unlikely to be broken for a long time.
Coco was instrumental in steering the talent's directions, especially in turbulent times such as the year and half in which Coco existed on our screens. Without that sail, Cover and their talents had to go on their own and face whatever demons it may raise...
Part 5 - The Transition Era {21-07-01 - 22-03-20}
Hololive was chugging around after the graduation with 3D Live happening almost every other day during August... and also quite a lot of debuts from the EN side.IRyS debuted on July 8, 2021. She was supposed to be part of a JP/EN collab VSinger group that were probably going to debut in Spring if there were enough applicants, but they were only able to fish one, and she came down (three times) to grace our screens and a month later on August 22, 2021, HoloCouncil made their debut - Tsukumo Sana, Ceres Fauna, Ouro Kronii, Nanashi Mumei, and Hakos Baelz. Less perfect than HoloMyth but still good, and very helpful as there was a Minecraft merger happening. As I explained above, Hololive had a hard time integrating their new members. For the longest time, I had a hard time differentiating 5th Gen because they would just hang out together and rarely with senpais, but the merger and the eagerness of HoloMyth to get fresh blood led one of the smoothest integrations.
This continued with HoloX - La+ Darknesss on November 26, 2021, Takane Lui on November 27, 2021, Hakui Koyori on November 28, 2021, Sakamata Chloe on November 29, 2021, and Kazama Iroha on November 30, 2021. My impression of them was shock, as with many, not only were given only a few hours notice, but it happened right after the infamous 3rd Gen Live. The relative failure of that live and the death of her beloved cat started a decline for one Uruha Rushia, whose aberrant behavior will eventually blow up three weeks before 3rdFes.
Rushia's termination also felt like a barrelling moment in hindsight, but I did not end this era on February 24, 2022, but on the 2nd Day of 3rd Fes, because I want to end on a high note and the 3D debuts of Area 15 and HoloMyth more than enough made up for the sudden loss and confusion of Uruha Rushia. While Rushia left on quite a sour note, Rushia still gets fondly remembered, especially by talents like Pekora and Fubuki... it's interesting.
I should also mention taht 3rd Fes, Link Your Wish, was first to be accompanied by an Expo, which was first done by Nijisanji back in early 2020, right before the pandemic.
Part 6 - Early Modern Era {22-03-20 - 22-12-31}
End of 3rd Fes led to two debuts - first HoloH3roes with Vestia Zeta on March 27, 2022, Kaela Kovalskia on March 28, 2022, and Kobo Kanaeru on March 29, 2022, followed by Holostar's UPROAR with Yatogami Fuma and Utsugi Uyu debuting on March 29, 2022 and Hizaki Gamma and Minase Rio debuting on March 30, 2022.The focus for these groups was a change, HoloID now looking inwards back towards Indonesia, marking the rise of homegrown groups like AKA Virtual, and Holostar's idolfication including the de-aging of Aruran. This was followed by a quiet but long integration of Hololive and Holostar, an informal but still significant, which culminates in the year-end concert.
There were quite a lot of concerts in this era, 2nd PV which was on June 11, 2022, the return of Hololive Summer along with the regular spate of summer celebration concerts, there was a kind of fatigue and there was no new debut in sight, at least for a while...
Tempus HQ was quite a turning point - Regisa Altare and Magni Dezmond debuted on July 22, 2022 and Axel Syrios and Noir Vesper debuted on July 23, 2022. Not only did it accelerated the interaction between Hololive and Holostars, but also the EN branches of Hololive and Nijisanji as well, which was a long time coming, considering it was over a year since NijiEN debuted.
Along with Tsukumo Sana's graduation on July 31, 2022, things kind of took a back seat in the fall season as the long preparation for 4th Fes was underway. There was a lull that was unfamiliar since the beginning of 2020 - a nice bookend to the EN boom, which was rapidly fading at this point. In hindsight, it was an appreciative one, or so I think at least.
There was one incredibly bright light and that was Kobo Kanaeru, who along with Hyakumantenbara Salome, was the biggest beneficiary of the Third General Boom, caused the end of COVID restrictions for most of the world. The third Boom was less significant than the first two, but it saw the surge of strong local ID and KR groups along with renewed interest in Japan, which benefitted both Hololive and Nijisanji.
Kobo's obstinately Indonesian nature gave me worry as for integration but I wasn't to be worried because Kobo has quite a sharp wit behind her genuinely childish behavior. Kobo will be remembered for her various connections reaching across all branches, pretty much.
Part 7 - Late Modern Era {22-12-31 - 23-09-??}
The year-end concert served as a teaser for Our Bright Parade, which happened on March 18 and March 19, 2023. There was also an extension for Hololive Tempus, with its VG division - Gavis Bettel and Machina X Flayon debuting on January 7, 2023 and Banzoin Hakka and Josuiji Shinri debuting January 8, 2023. It was an understandable yet odd debut and I think VG was one of the most 'Nijisanji' groups in Hololive I have ever seen.This was good grounds for Kobo. After Our Bright Parade, there was both a lull and an uptick. There was a lot happening - a new studio and an amusement park takeover - but a strange lack of debuts from any branches. One of the longest lack of such, I believe ever.
This might change soon, however, and that's where all our story has to end. I will fill in the rest of the story at the end of this period. And hopefully, I can come back to fill in the next era.
2023.06.03 14:44 KindKill267 Update to my previous post buying a used vehicle that has a banknote lien on it.
I tried linking my previous post for some context but I figured I would share what process I ended up doing which was successful.
Long story short after the one comment about the bank requesting the title from Penn dot I called the other parties bank members 1st credit union, and spoke to a rep from their titling dept. Their policy was that they did not request titles from Penn dot. The reasoning was it could damaged in transit or while at the bank. Sounds like BS because you handle money all the time. My assumption is the bank doesn't want to pay the $55 fee to Penn dot in requesting the title.
What me and the other party did was meet up at their bank, I paid off the loan with a cashiers check and the bank gave the previous owner a lien release letter that they notarized. Me and the seller then drove straight to the Penn dot building on front street in Harrisburg and pulled a number. (Side note that place is crazy busy and fairly hectic. So much so they have armed security guards walking around. Shout out to those Penn dot employees, I couldn't do it without crippling alcohol abuse as part of my daily mental health regimen.)
Once we got called up to the counter and gave them the letter from the bank and the forms we filled out in the waiting room the Penn dot guy filled out some paper work, I paid my fees, and I walked out of there with a plate, registration, and title in my name to my camper.
Apparently there at Penn dot dmv, it is the only one where you can do titles and stuff same day. They also had a counter for DCNR ATV titles.

Funny Story to keep from crying
Sharing this story as a warning and for myself.
Yesterday, I was scammed out of $200 in the states. Doesn’t it seem like everything our brains do cost us more money than the others and adds more stress to an already failing heart due to prescribed stimulants.
Anyways, had a full day planned with my boyfriend at Costco. Recently became a member so we’ve been going almost daily. Unfortunately, Costco only accepts VISA payments. My only VISA was out of money, I thought maybe I would just buy a VISA gift card from CVS to use for my Costco trips.
Get to CVS and I have to read every card, pre-paid vs gift cards. I spent about 10-15 mins looking over cards while my boyfriend was outside waiting in the car with our cat and dog (we took them on a nature trail that morning). I was getting overwhelmed by options and my urge to get to Costco was over powering my other senses. With that I blindly grabbed a VISA gift card (Vanilla brand), didn’t look at the packing whatsoever. Get the the register, the guys having problems checking me out and I still don’t look at the packing (I’m more frustrated with the checkout process).
After all that, I’m finally out the door and on the road. I immediately open the gift card and notice that the 3 numbers on the back of the card are SCRATCHED OFF. I immediately knew I was scammed at that point. I flip the card over and more numbers are scratched off, making it useless!!
I’ve gone through the process and made every phone call possible to get this resolved. So I’ll just have to wait till they get to my case. It ruined my morning. And the funny thing is my visa had a check deposited that morning… if I just check my bank account.

2023.06.03 14:37 ChildishMufasa ADHD - Always Doing How Do?
On a recent thread here someone likened ADHD to being chained to the laziest version of yourself. And it got me thinking about how I would describe my relationship with it. Even before I was diagnosed, I would explain to people how it felt like I had to always throw a bone to my mind. In the sense that, whatever I was doing, I would have to toss a problem or idea or transcript of a conversation I'd had 4 years before to my brain to chew on in the background that invariable invaded the foreground.
I was diagnosed in the middle of last year at the age of 32. The catalyst for even considering ADHD came about after reading this post by David Cain on his exceptional blog Raptitude,
https://www.raptitude.com/2021/03/what-raptitude-has-always-been-about/
(if you haven’t seen his stuff already, immediately quit reading this bumbling mess and check out his work. You won’t regret it).
His site was one of those rare corners of the internet that I took great value from and really resonated with. And to see that his perspectives were, in hindsight, in some way influenced by ADHD got me thinking about my own proclivity for certain behaviours.
So many things from my life made sense through this newfound and unexpected lens. How my degree was built on desperate writing sessions, often starting at 11pm the night before the deadline right through to dawn, where I would camp out in the library eating raw instant coffee and haribo. How, without fail, before every task I’d have to find means of upping my dopamine levels so that the water line was high enough to get started. And how even after that work could feel almost weirdly painful at times. The fact that every message I sent normally begins with 'I'm so sorry it's taken so long to reply'. How everything must have a place, not because I am in any way organised, but because if it doesn’t then that belonging will disappear into some kind of temporal abyss. How, many years ago when I was once under a lot of pressure at work, I instead spent hours writing a 2000-word satirical academic dissection of the song ‘Shake Ya Ass’ by Mystikal for no one in particular.
Of all the gifts that it offers (spontaneous hip-hop literature aside), today I found myself somewhat lamenting the way I am. I’m sure you can relate. Fed up with that ever-present tension of your mind’s engine revving like nobody’s business but being unable to actual put it in gear. Depleted due to the navigation of your thoughts feeling like playing Tetris on the hardest difficulty, desperately trying to compile a chaotic onslaught of hues into some kind of workable form. The contradiction of incessant activity paired with persistent stagnation. Which is to say, how I came to the ham-fisted acronym / cry for help in the post title. Always Doing, How Do?
I think Reddit is so appealing, at least for me, because of those buried nuggets of wisdom that you can stumble upon within all the noise. These fleeting discoveries make me come back again and again, because maybe if I keep looking I will find 'the answer". The quote or wisdom that will propel me into who I am and who I want to be, truly. Like for all of us, that clarity can spontaneously unfurl organically too, like swathes of morning light over a new day. I can only liken that feeling to that moment when you're riding coach when the plane breaks through the clouds. And you’re above the weather that colours your days and connected to something bigger. The sky. And that feeling is bloody addictive. I don't know about you, but I chase it. I went to a coffee shop on the banks of a lake by my house the other week and, through magic or unintentional design, I was greeted by that light. And so today I went back again today, hoping it would shine again. And it didn't. And that's okay.
One habit that (surprise surprise) I struggle to maintain is using FocusWriter to freeform journal. This clickity-clack of vowels and coffee cups often take a familiar shape. I start off deep within the apathy or funk that is currently enveloping me. As I write I slowly gain subtle glimmers of lucidity and by the end I normally reach an optimistic reframing of my life & worth to walk forward with. I hoped as I wrote this that the above format would fall into place with this post. But this time, unfortunately, all I can offer is my experience. Of not being at a beginning or an end but rather somewhere in between.
If you were to try and fish a theme from this muddled heap like one of those claw machines at the fair, the prize you would retrieve would be solidarity. With the challenges you face on the day to day and the frustrations you may have at that unalignment between who you are, how you behave and all the multitudes in-between.
I don’t really know why I’m posting this. But I guess it’s to try and put some good into the world to counteract the negativity that has temporarily enveloped mine. To say to you to have faith that things will be better, even if they don't feel like it now. That you will meet answers on your journey, not from Reddit, but within and from yourself. That our ability to transform 'doing’ to ‘do’ isn't a measurement of our innate value to this world but rather a skill we can refine and misplace and begin anew. At least, that's what I hope for myself.

I was diagnosed in the middle of last year at the age of 32. The catalyst for even considering ADHD came about after reading this post by David Cain on his exceptional blog Raptitude,
https://www.raptitude.com/2021/03/what-raptitude-has-always-been-about/
(if you haven’t seen his stuff already, immediately quit reading this bumbling mess and check out his work. You won’t regret it).
His site was one of those rare corners of the internet that I took great value from and really resonated with. And to see that his perspectives were, in hindsight, in some way influenced by ADHD got me thinking about my own proclivity for certain behaviours.
So many things from my life made sense through this newfound and unexpected lens. How my degree was built on desperate writing sessions, often starting at 11pm the night before the deadline right through to dawn, where I would camp out in the library eating raw instant coffee and haribo. How, without fail, before every task I’d have to find means of upping my dopamine levels so that the water line was high enough to get started. And how even after that work could feel almost weirdly painful at times. The fact that every message I sent normally begins with 'I'm so sorry it's taken so long to reply'. How everything must have a place, not because I am in any way organised, but because if it doesn’t then that belonging will disappear into some kind of temporal abyss. How, many years ago when I was once under a lot of pressure at work, I instead spent hours writing a 2000-word satirical academic dissection of the song ‘Shake Ya Ass’ by Mystikal for no one in particular.
Of all the gifts that it offers (spontaneous hip-hop literature aside), today I found myself somewhat lamenting the way I am. I’m sure you can relate. Fed up with that ever-present tension of your mind’s engine revving like nobody’s business but being unable to actual put it in gear. Depleted due to the navigation of your thoughts feeling like playing Tetris on the hardest difficulty, desperately trying to compile a chaotic onslaught of hues into some kind of workable form. The contradiction of incessant activity paired with persistent stagnation. Which is to say, how I came to the ham-fisted acronym / cry for help in the post title. Always Doing, How Do?
I think Reddit is so appealing, at least for me, because of those buried nuggets of wisdom that you can stumble upon within all the noise. These fleeting discoveries make me come back again and again, because maybe if I keep looking I will find 'the answer". The quote or wisdom that will propel me into who I am and who I want to be, truly. Like for all of us, that clarity can spontaneously unfurl organically too, like swathes of morning light over a new day. I can only liken that feeling to that moment when you're riding coach when the plane breaks through the clouds. And you’re above the weather that colours your days and connected to something bigger. The sky. And that feeling is bloody addictive. I don't know about you, but I chase it. I went to a coffee shop on the banks of a lake by my house the other week and, through magic or unintentional design, I was greeted by that light. And so today I went back again today, hoping it would shine again. And it didn't. And that's okay.
One habit that (surprise surprise) I struggle to maintain is using FocusWriter to freeform journal. This clickity-clack of vowels and coffee cups often take a familiar shape. I start off deep within the apathy or funk that is currently enveloping me. As I write I slowly gain subtle glimmers of lucidity and by the end I normally reach an optimistic reframing of my life & worth to walk forward with. I hoped as I wrote this that the above format would fall into place with this post. But this time, unfortunately, all I can offer is my experience. Of not being at a beginning or an end but rather somewhere in between.
If you were to try and fish a theme from this muddled heap like one of those claw machines at the fair, the prize you would retrieve would be solidarity. With the challenges you face on the day to day and the frustrations you may have at that unalignment between who you are, how you behave and all the multitudes in-between.
I don’t really know why I’m posting this. But I guess it’s to try and put some good into the world to counteract the negativity that has temporarily enveloped mine. To say to you to have faith that things will be better, even if they don't feel like it now. That you will meet answers on your journey, not from Reddit, but within and from yourself. That our ability to transform 'doing’ to ‘do’ isn't a measurement of our innate value to this world but rather a skill we can refine and misplace and begin anew. At least, that's what I hope for myself.

Please help me, I live with my grandparents & my uncle given his credit card to me & he works in abroad. So this morning, he received a large number of subtracted messages nearly 45k. All are different subscriptions of games were purchased. I didn’t done anything 🥺🥺 & He is blaming me for using his card & I reach out the bank, but they weren't able to help me until the cardholder calls them and confirm the details with them. I told everything, requested them to reverse the transactions but there deny it & told the card holder should come & raise the complaint to bank within 3 working days.
I've tried to get in touch with the cybercrime people (1930) but they demanding the Aadhar card,current address, credit card's photo/number & card statement, transaction IDs.
Should I have to ask my uncle for above documents & submit to that cyber? If I did so then no guarantee those people can crack down it? Is there any other options?
