  2. 3 SBI Shares - @WonderWop Asked “I've tried creating a dTube video last year, but they always came out lagging or buffering. What's the best speed to create a video to avoid having those issues?”

Partiko Mobile App - Simply Beautiful Steem

Where do you see the Steemit platform in 5 years? And why?

Posted using Partiko iOS

In 5 years I see Steemit being held in the same regard as any other social media with one major difference it will be a one stop shop. Whether you are a vlogger, blogger, photographer, poet, or just wish to instant message this is a place to earn rewards for your activity. With all the various dapps being built on top of the Steem blockchain it’s very well possible that the Steemit we know today may become obsolete not being able to interface with so many various options, already we see SteemConnect opening the door to protocols such as SBD-Steem conversion which is limited by the actual Steemit Inc internal exchange. Once the understanding of how the fractional banking system works is main stream and unacceptable to the masses we should see a shift in where individuals make investments and since the internet is a center point for communication platforms like Steemit with its seemingly license to print money people will flock to all available options.

Why? Because it incorporates communication and self expression with the ability to earn rewards for said activities which are the root of discovering self worth.

My question is

Does thought require language?

Posted using Partiko Android

No not at all, are animals thoughtless? My dog has a major personality which he expresses his desires often which would imply thought but without a formal spoken language he has to resort to body language and actions. It is just much easier to communicate your thoughts through the context of language as without it you would be required to use telepathy and tell a story through images and feelings.

Will we be able to go to the moon because of streem?

Posted using Partiko iOS

I personally doubt there will ever be a public voyage to the moon, if your apart of the government or space travel corporations such as SpaceX it’s possible but because of Steem itself I don’t think so. It all has to do with training and all that astronauts go through to be able to make the voyage into “outer space”.

As it is NASA says they lost the technology that previously made the voyage possible and currently we cannot pass through the radiation belts so I’m of the mindset it was the biggest hoax ever done just to be able to say the USA one upped the Russians.

Posted using Partiko iOS

Wow thank you so much for giving me a detailed answer! I really appreciate it! So I guess I’ll just make steem pay for my future vacation haha

Maybe not the moon, but maybe New Jersey! 🤣🤣🤣

What do you think about the New Partiko Messaging. I think It is great but I am afraid of spamming. Waht is your opinion?🤔

Posted using Partiko Android

I love the idea, I would like to see “private messaging” incorporated as currently it seems to post the message on a post which is also cool. I personally am waiting for the iOS update so I may test it more indepthly. As long as your messaging people whom wish to communicate with you understanding that it is still public then I wouldn’t worry about spamming even slightly, this is a social network. I would try make certain you messages are in-depth and thoughtful just for the sake of avoiding possible flags by people whom may be in the mindset of flagging spam.

My question this week is: With silver hoovering around $14.50 per ounce, do you think that purchasing 10 ounces a week would be a wise investment to end out 2018?

Posted using Partiko Android

Now I don’t like giving financial advise as I am not a financial advisor but I will answer the question. I personally see precious metals of fairly safe investment overall.

This page gives a pretty good breakdown of most of the points I have found relative the current market situation

https://seekingalpha.com/article/4204546-silver-cheap-time-buy

I would be assuming it’s an investment for the long run but looking at current prices it seems we’re at the historical lows. That tells me it’s a good time to invest at least relative to the historical data. The downside risk/reward potential is stated to be very low and with a all time high adjusted for inflation you would see potentially $150 making it one of the best investment options on the planet.

Now looking for where the investment comes from for silver I found this page.

https://www.bullionvault.com/silver-guide/silver-industrial-demand

States that silver is considered the indispensable metal by Washington-based industry group the Silver Institute relative to its investment in industry. Which half of annual demand comes from industry use cases and with older industries using silver dieing off and new technological ones take place I speculate a much lower possibility of downside compared to gold with only a stated 10-15% industry use and a much higher possibility of upside with further demand for investment purposes during the next bullrun.

Thank you for answering my question @d00k13 I've decided to purchase Silver dollars, instead of silver bullion, that way if shtf and silver tanks, I'll still have a dollar to spend. Plus they are so cool to look at. 👍👍

Posted using Partiko Android

Snap I didn’t even think about the possibility of coins with a pegged downside perspective. Let me ask you a couple questions then 😉

So with the coins you can make gains while silver climbs exchangeable by weight but if it tanks the coins will still remain spendable at $1?

How much is the cost per coin currently for investment?

Posted using Partiko iOS

If you buy pre 1965 dimes, quarters, or halves they can be picked up for around $11 per dollar face. Silver dollars, pre 1935, can be had for about $16 each in average condition.

Why is the app named Partiko?

Posted using Partiko iOS

It’s word play on “paid article” being “particle” and with much thought was worked into the name Partiko.

Is president Trump the most powerful man in America?

Posted using Partiko iOS

Most likely not, he may present himself as being such but really the power of America circles around the financial institutions with fractional reserve banking and the overwhelming debt America has with the federal reserve.

What do you think about Ned’s hair?

Posted using Partiko iOS

Way to classy for me 😝 I am a simple man so as long as it’s out of my eyes and does not require a ton of maintenance I’m good.

Can only imagine the time it takes for him to maintain the dew but it’s serves a purpose of looking professional being the figure head of our entire platform.

may i know,
you are already a big whale then join steemit.

or after joined steemit,
then become a big whale?

Posted using Partiko Android

Well I started the same as all of you at 25 rep and 15SP and through continuous posting and interaction I have grown my account.

I do however make small investments when I can purchasing Steem with my mining rewards which has helped through using services for boosting such as @minnowbooster or @smartsteem.

As for me being a whale, I don’t consider myself a whale as of yet. My personal power is only in the 1,800 range meaning I am just a little over being a full fledged minnow but through my delegation from @nathanmars I have been empowered upto my current SP value for my efforts on inspiring blockchain interactions with my @DTube posts and creating a support community #OneLoveDTube to help others along the way.

Hmmmmmmm interesting game.

Why do chickens always cross the street??

I always wonder why. 😉

Posted using Partiko Android

  • "Why did the chicken cross the road?" is a common riddle joke, with the answer being "to get to the other side". It is an example of anti-humor, in that the curious setup of the joke leads the listener to expect a traditional punchline, but they are instead given a simple statement of fact. "Why did the chicken cross the road?" has become iconic as an exemplary generic joke to which most people know the answer, and has been repeated and changed numerous times over the course of history.

Source: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Why_did_the_chicken_cross_the_road%3F

IMO it’s a statement of fact that when faced with an obstacle we have only two choices. Stay where we are at and remain curious of the other side or cross the obstacle taking on the risks associated for the general benefit of what may lay ahead of us for making it to the other side alive.
