Hah, I'm almost that bad. I do remember pins, but this handling of so many different keys is a pain. I finally rusted my keys in the Hive keychain, only because I've about run out of value there and don't see building anymore there. Its a worry keeping them off the computer, and then having a backup in case something bad comes of the first method of storage you have. Couple that with needing to keep codes for 2 factor and everyone trying to force you into either their spying app or online portals and I hope one day to have enough money to get a place in the middle of nowhere and ditch most all of this. :)
Especially the more I read that history on electricity and life.
Agree - I have very few "apps" - I have a computer! I decide if I want their latest buggy upgrade. It also works on ethernet, not wifinet. :-)
I think down the road I'm going to bite the bullet and use a drive that has no windows on it, installing Linux (which I've never used before). I've researched Linux a little bit and know to stay away from popular versions like Ubuntu as it appears to also have some spying built into it as well.
I need to get a regular modem when I move in a few months and figure out how to run ethernet cables discreetly. I'm hooked up myself with ethernet, but the cable company here only provides wifi and my partner uses that. I've been educating her on the danges of EMF recently and talked her into installing one of those EMF readers you mentioned in another comment. She is beside herself on the levels we are experiencing. So thinking she will be more open to wire when we move.
Lately I've been using my voting power to much, yesterday having run it down to 60. I need to let it recharge so I'm upvoting you today directly in the wallet.
No harm in being at 60% VP - really depends how much BP you have - do a mental calc to make sure your effective BP is above at least 3000 as votes drift down very quickly to zero.
eg if u have 100k BP and voting at 60% you're still voting with 60k power :-)
It's something I'm OCD about. The primary draw of this system to me is being able to give upvotes that have value to others. The icing on top being of course being rewarded myself for having these gestures with others.
When I first started at Steem the value was still in the 4.00 range, quickly to slide to 2.00 then 1.00 then pennies.
But I was amazed at the values being given to so many accounts via upvotes. Especially by some very kind hearted stakeholders. I was drawn myself into the family protection group, both voting many of the folks spotlighted there who were targets of CPS and struggling financially. To donating probably 15-20% of my earnings there to them to strengthen their project. I watched them help families financially be able to buy diapers, food, pay bills and such and I was both in awe and humbled to be part of such a noble endeavor. One where we could see for ourselves the real impact our actions held for another.
This system allows so much power for those of a generous heart. And the greater ones stake and voting power, the more impact one (I) can have in this regard.
