If this changes how you use your Amex, one ask:
Repost the first post so the next person paying $695/year and using 2 benefits out of 26 sees this before their next statement.
Follow [ @jamescoder12 ] I break down the hidden benefits, unclaimed credits, and buried value that companies profit from you never activating.
Next thread: the 9 things inside your health insurance you've been paying premiums on for years and never once used and the $2,200/year most Americans leave on the table.
A home theater installer has calibrated over 3,000 TVs in 12 years from $400 budget sets to $15,000 flagship OLEDs in custom media rooms.
He walks into people's homes, looks at their TV for 5 seconds, and can tell them exactly what's wrong.
He told me: "Almost every TV I see is running in the same mode Best Buy uses under fluorescent showroom lights. The motion smoothing is on. The sharpness is cranked. The eco dimmer is cutting brightness by 30–40%. And the TV is taking a screenshot of the screen every few seconds and selling the viewing data to advertisers. People are watching a $1,500 panel the same way it looked on the store shelf and that's the worst possible way to watch it."
He said a properly calibrated TV doesn't look "better." It looks like a completely different television.
He changed 9 settings on my TV in 15 minutes.
The soap opera effect disappeared. The colors became natural. Skin tones stopped looking plastic.
Dark scenes became visible. The TV stopped spying on me. And a movie finally looked like a movie instead of a daytime talk show.
"TV manufacturers ship every set optimized for a showroom, not a living room. Then they bury the settings that fix it inside 6 menus nobody opens."
Here are the 9 things he changed:
@CalebFranzen I also realize we have negative divergence on the 4 hour so this is a short term trade. And if I listened to you I would have sold at over 100k. Lol. Lesson learned.
@CalebFranzen Interesting. But on the liquidation wick in early May on the weekly, the RSI was not oversold. This time it is. I know on the Thursday call when BTC was 89k you convinced me to selll my BTCL. Bought a bunch back this am looking for a bounce.
American entrepreneur Keonne Rodriguez built a successful Bitcoin wallet app called @SamouraiWallet. He’s now being sent to prison for it.
In a few weeks, Keonne will begin his 5-year sentence behind bars, unless the Bitcoin community can save him by pressuring the US Administration to offer a pardon.
When I heard about this story, it sounded like fake news, so I went straight to the source. In this exclusive interview, @Keonne is descriptive, logical, and vulnerable.
His story is heartbreaking and terrifying.
By the end, it's evident he's sitting directly in the crossfire between freedom tech and surveillance states.
This is a critical moment in history—a moment for the Bitcoin community to stand up. Just as @RealRossU was pardoned, @Keonne must be forgiven, too. We cannot allow one of our own fellow Bitcoiners to spend time in jail for building a legitimate product that protects our Bitcoin and strengthens the network.
We must unify to ensure @Keonne is freed. Alone, he doesn’t stand a chance. But with support from faithful Bitcoiners, we can bring awareness to his cause.
Knowledge is power. Watch the interview and vocalize your support for @Keonne in the comments.

And yet again, a falsely given warning
This is the 3rd false warning I received besides the 1 channel take down - all mistakenly.
I genuinely have not been stressed like this for the past decade
I wake up every morning and check if my channel is still there, and assure my team they still have a job…

Please, talk to us, let’s work together to make the YouTube a better and safer place for content creators
@FefeDemeny Watched and joined your 100x club on YouTube and telegram. There are 2 100x telegram channels. I think 1 is a scammer one. Do you only have one 100x telegram channel?
So I guess no video this morning. We were putting out a video on a $ONDO price prediction for this year, but YouTube flagged it has “Harmful Content”
Plz Share this message to help raise more awareness!
@TeamYouTube I have read the bylaws forward and backwards to make sure I never say anything to promise people anything. You need to fix this!
@TimWarrenTrades Great call! The Bills are fun. But they find a way to break your heart in the end. 4 Super Bowl losses in a row taught me that! Still love them. Go Bills!
