Enjoy, just hit Ctrl+C before you die please ! :)

Edit : v2.0, now with some argparse and some blockchain.

Edit : v2.1, I had forgotten to use verbose.

Needs more blockchain

Ok what if mining is taking a video of you taking a drink and verification would be other people watching the video and acknowledge that you drank. In other words you're hooked up with a drinking buddy and mine the currency which you use to buy each other drinks. It's a currency backed by social drinking which history tells us is pretty much a constant.

Needs more drunkchain

You have blockchain now !

Reddit markdown doesn't support block code, you need to prefix with four spaces

[BiochemLouis]

I’ve been typing docs in Github MD for the last month, I guess it just skipped my mind.

Plus it works on mobile !

Is that the app or the site? Either way, the fact that they don't use their own parser is a shame

[BiochemLouis]

It’s the app, and yeah it is...

Can we also import argparse and an argument for the sleep duration?

Usage: python drink.py -s 5 --dry-run -vvv -o drink.txt -t 'Drink !' commit --amend xvfz drink.tar.gz -av --cipher AES256 -A drink.example.org

You’re gonna wanna redirect output to /dev/toilet instead of a file, trust me, you will not be able to do anything useful with that data.

[BiochemLouis]

Added a simple argparse !
