I read about it in some geek forum, came here to take a look and made myself an account. Must have been 2011. Never thought I'd actually get any. They are useless nerdy whatnots, right? Then I found out that another nerdy thing I'd read about was in actual use and worked fairly well. Something about onions. I found out there were people around the world willing to take nerdy whatnots for actual merchandise, quite hard to come by in other ways.

So I bought some, a bit more than I actually needed, just to be sure - at $6-$7 each, then $10. It was a bit of a hassle to buy. Spent some, lost some in the Old West scene it was at the time. Hedl some. Never really stopped buying just for the heck of it, even when my hunger for onions vanished. I even mined a little with my Nvidia GPU while it was still slightly profitable - like 0.02-0.03 a day. Deepbit anyone?

I came here at regular intervals. Read Meta and Speculation mostly. One day I felt like posting, but the old account was too easy to connect to my other personas. Remember what happened to DPR. Not that I have anything to hide, but you know. A little disconnection is always a good thing. Make a new account. And here I am.
