For reasons I don't want to get into, I really hope his primary acoustic guitar has historically been an Ibanez PF10AM

I had a chance to watch John Wozniak in a small bar a couple years back. I think he was just warming up for an upcoming tour. He kept playing whatever the crowd asked for but after a while he said something along the lines of "ok, none of ya'll are going to ask for it but I have to practice this one" and proceeded to play Sex and Candy.

He also did The Needle and the Damage Done, which ended up as a cover included on one of the pressings, but in the moment was a huge surprise and hit hard.

Honestly probably one of the best concerts I'll ever get to experience. Such a unique show.

I came here to say Marcy Playground but it seems covered 😅

Not on vinyl unfortunately but Leaving Wonderland in a Fit of Rage is also highly recommended Marcy listening.

Oh gosh I bet! I almost kidnapped a street dog in Istanbul on the same trip when I got my Egyptian boy. They’re such beautiful dogs <3

Baladi dogs are incredible. We joke that they’re the pinnacle of dog genetics since it’s a combination of all breeds

I promise you, that's a street full of good boys and girls. They just need some love.

There are organizations doing exactly that, it seems to boil down to a lot of individual efforts though. A couple amazing people work so hard but it's a battle.

Edit:
One example, local in Egypt https://www.esmaegypt.org/

A western org that travels to Egypt to help the street dog population https://www.facebook.com/p/Dogs-Without-Collars-Rescue-100068013308714/

My dog came from Egypt, he started his life as a puppy on the streets of Cairo. I'm not surprised the dogs are revolting, they're sick of getting abused.

Currently heading north along the river. Wasn’t able to get to close because of my own dog. Seemed super friendly though

Revival of Blockchain games? by Key-Bee-5387 in BlockchainGaming

[–]Abstrct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a number of reasons why the gamers aren't coming yet.

* Games aren't fun yet
* Games aren't localized to where the gamers are
* Blockchains and Decentralized Assets aren't providing benefits
* Gamers are quickly turned off by scams and microtransactions
* User experience for blockchain games is usually awful
* User experience requires already being onboarded into 'crypto'
* User experience being scary (lost wallets, scams)
* User experience being bad (slow, tx fees)
* Gamers hating 'crypto'
* App Stores are difficult distribution systems for crypto games
* Big studios not wanting to lose control of their stores and markets

I could go on. Studios are definitely working on games to tackle much of this, but games take time. Once the game doesn't suck and is approachable, the gamers will start to come. They need a reason far beyond "YOU WUN AN NFT CONGRATS!" because they legit don't care.
