I’m not entirely sold on Stoicism, but I’ve noticed a similar mindset here in Germany. It’s interesting how many people seem to approach problem-solving in a way that feels narrow and unimaginative. The general thought process seems to go like this:

Problem → Can I solve it with the standard methods I know? → If not, is there some professional who can solve it for me? → If not, it’s unsolvable.

In contrast, in my country, the process often looks more like this:

Problem → Can I solve it? → What if I Google it? → What if I ask for help? → What if I try an unconventional, risky, or even illegal solution? → If not, is there some professional who can solve it for me? - If not, repeat from start.

I think Europeans are more advanced in the division of labour

Exactly the reason I stopped using it

Maybe they dropped the project. I think they were posting something here, on nostr or x, but it was a while ago.

I’ve tried it and it’s very laggy on iOS. But idea is interesting. Still missing sign option with nostr, would be so much better

I cannot even tell if I'm zapping CC or Sats :/

I was also having "writer's block" recently. I even thought that my writing might be correlated with the Bitcoin price—I'm much more productive during bear markets or at least during some pullbacks or choppy price behavior. Since I'm exposed to the price daily due to being on SN, it somehow affects my writing capabilities. Yes, I know you can set a "1 SAT = 1 SAT" , but I can't keep it up for long. 😊 I guess curiosity killed the cat!

True, it was not available when I was playing Monopoly with lightning, so I used Zeus wallet on my node as a Bank and WOS wallets as player wallets, but with Alby hub it will be even better, just need 30 min preparation time before the game.

Hey, Happy New Year! I'm glad you've tried it! There are couple of monopoly-like games where you can execute the same, basically all games were you have money and transactions between players, or bank to player. We were also trying to add this element to Catan as my daughter loves Catan, but it didn't end up well. I believe there is a room to explore though)

Amazing, thanks! Next time will go there 1st!

I think you also need to understand it’s not a taxable event everywhere, it’s actually specific to us only and maybe couple other countries with similar systems.

Merry Christmas!

Wish everyone to touch grass more next year, or snow:)

Interesting, need to find time for 42 pages:)

Still it’s actively discussed:)

When bitcoin is equivalent to 100 mil in today’s dollars you probably wouldn’t use dollars to buy it anymore, you will just earn it

Yes and no, 90% of these conversations will never happen:)

I don’t talk to myself, but I often talk to other people in my head. Is it also considered talking to yourself, or it’s a different thing?))

Mine are 2 and 11

Ok. But it doesn’t mean like they are fucked, I mean Russia was never associated with the power that controls Middle East?

+1 some ELI5 would be great

There are power only cables you can buy on Amazon. You just need to be sure they are not tampered with already 🤣
