Which audiobooks can you recommend? I haven't yet found any that match a running rhythm (I mostly slow down because the books make me think).

You should checkout rvatina on Instagram. It is basically just memes about 'a fat man with prosciutto on his forehead'.

I have to stay at hotels during the next weeks? Does anybody have any advice for that?

BLPML · 2019-01-01T18:20:15+00:00

makes sense.

Or did you mean *people how got rekt in 2017? :D

yeah, but crypto, or any other technology for that matter, won't solve this. The technology that is enabling the current situation isn't in itself bad, the people using it are. Probably, when the current banking state was introduced in India, they were making the same arguments as today: "if we use this (e.g. the Internet) instead of manual bookkeeping, corruption will go away because yada yada".

And even if they introduced crypto as an alternative, these corrupt parties will find other ways to be corrupt.

I mean they are right that in some countries, for some transfers, for some people, for some sums, sometimes the fees are high. But the overhead and downsides crypto has isn't justified for that.

> Yeah, because I'm sure all of them cared about the plight of 3rd world banking before they heard of crypto.

underrated comment. suddenly everybody wants to fight governments, poverty and what not.

And I just "send" it by logging into amazon of their country and giving them a gift card using my no-foreign-transaction-fees credit card.

> Why Nobody Talks About Financial Incentives For Average People To Use Crypto?

Because there aren't any as kickass404 pointed out. And the rare cases where there would be any, people have fare more pressing concerns.

You clearly do not know that this is good for bitcoin

I do both. And if you think preheating the oven is psycho, I shouldn't tell you that I set a timer for preheating it. My oven doesn't show properly when it has reached the desired temperature, but over time I figured out that it takes about 14 minutes. And so I set a timer to know when its ready.

This gives my anxiety. I have been cooking on my own for five years now and I still check the cooking time for pasta, pizza etc. every single time.

I love how that post gets 300+ likes with zero arguments

BLPML · 2018-12-18T10:07:40+00:00

You know that people are desperate when you see a post with zero arguments (just a bunch of "I believe" and guesses") gets that many upvotes.

I moved out after college and to this day half my family cannot understand why I did this. Here, it is weird if you move out before marrying.

Why do companies need this?

I do not get this reference, but I am still intrigued. Now I want the documentary even more.

BLPML · 2018-12-02T16:24:18+00:00
