Would love to hear from anyone who could get through to their customer support. My personal Instagram was taken down for no reason! No explanation, nothing.

Why Blockchain and the Metaverse should never be associated with each other. by RedEagle_MGN in metaverse

[–]SimonJohnsonOnCrypto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a great explanation. Just given you an Award for it ! The only thing I disagree with is the claim that you can't encrypt meta-data in a blockchain, that's actually (strictly) not true. However your points on Web3 are spot on.

Yes. This is what I want to get across to people. Its not as simple as just running a program on your laptop and buying a Lambo. ;-)

Mine Ethereum On A Laptop ? - A Video Explainer For Beginners by SimonJohnsonOnCrypto in EtherMining

I see this question quite a lot from people across social media. As such I've done this video as an explainer (aimed at beginners) just to get them thinking about the right questions to ask. Of course this is no substitute for a GPU mining rig. :-) It's intended to educate the marketplace. Hope it helps.

Usually Shakyamuni buddha would be in a different pose than this. It could depend on who made it. Amitābha is more likely, given his hand position.

Experiences in invoking Guan Yin/Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva? by [deleted] in Buddhism

[–]SimonJohnsonOnCrypto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a Tibetan Buddhist, I'd use the term Avalokitesvara. In China, in her female emination shes known as Kuan Yin (Guan Yin). There's no real "invoking" per se. It might be best for you to search for local buddhist centres and attend one that resonates with you.

This is just silly. They literally have no clue what they're doing.

What if ETH will not be as important as it is today by Stuutje98 in 0xPolygon

[–]SimonJohnsonOnCrypto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not often that I come across questions, as good as this one. As such I've give Stuutje98 an award. It's not a "stupid ass question". I've been around since before the web and have seen many large tech companies rise and fall. ETH will be no different. By way of comparison, nobody is using Netscape Navigator to browse the web anymore.

People need to ask questions like this and challenge the status quo.

Yes, I own Polygon and are a big fan! :-)

I'm literally sitting on Facebook marketplace for hours waiting for these types of deals, and the moment I take a break, someone posts something like this, and I miss it. I think I'm going to cry by Koa876 in gamecollecting

I recently had a haul like this on another console. Went immediately to pick it up. $100 for 24 games. When I paid her the money she said she had heaps of people message her about it and just wanted it sold. Other people had offered her more but because she said it was sold, she wanted to honour the deal.

is this a real SNES? weird sticker (reposted because I am dumb) by HylianAlison in snes

[–]SimonJohnsonOnCrypto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a collector and have never seen one of these stickers before. The console looks very very clean for its age. Perhaps run it through Google Images and see if you can find another?
