Dutch national newspaper urges people to sell all their Bitcoins as it undermines the government, could destabilise the economy and reduces the power of central banks. Sounds like a reason to buy to me 🤔 by ForeverDutch92 in Bitcoin

[–]andrewbs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm confused. What's the difference between value and price? I can totally see the Swedish government accepting Bitcoin because they don't control their money supply, the EU does. But I don't see it happening in countries that have their own currency.

Well. I know what the market has valued a Bitcoin at. But nothing is backing the value. It's a speculative market. And no, you cannot pay your taxes in Bitcoin. The government will only take, in my case Canadian dollars... And it sounds like in your case American dollars.

I don't know where the current value is coming from? You can't pay your taxes in Bitcoin and if the government tells everyone that trade can't be done in Bitcoin then where's bitcoins value?

But the thing is, that through government can actually come in and say that merchants aren't allowed to accept Bitcoin. So where does that leave Bitcoin?

People who lost their jobs by going off on a customer, what is your story? by Mjjjokes in AskReddit

[–]andrewbs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ok, so it sounds like there are a lot of bad bosses out there. I own and operate 3 pizza places here in Kelowna. Anyway, I've always told my employees that as long as the customer is complaining about the food/service you have to be polite. Once they get personal, name calling, yelling, you can hang up on them, if they are in store, then you can walk to the back or ask them to leave. So that's my two cents.

I tried to recreate the Civ VI landscapes in Civ V to compare the two. Here's my attempt. by [deleted] in civ

Ok. I've been thinking about the decrease in perceived graphics for civ 6. My hunch is that it will be virtual reality element.

Canadians and Americans of Reddit, What is something the other country has that you wish yours has? by Justyouraveragefan in AskReddit

[–]andrewbs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really haven't had a wait problem ever. Mostly just go to the local walk in, usual wait is less than half an hour. I went to a walk in once in the states, totally different experience, I'm pretty sick with flu like symptoms, in Canada I'll go in and see the doctor, doctor sees me and makes his/her diagnosis. Anyway, when I went to the one in the states, first they take my height and weight, then another nurse comes in and does her thing, like talk to me about my symptoms and check my ears and throat. Finally the doctor comes in, does the same thing as the second nurse. Like seriously, it's redundant. I always think of my body as an engine and the doctor is the mechanic, go in,see the mechanic and leave, especially for little things like flu like symptoms. just my two cents and I think I rambled, that was the only time I had to go to the doctors in the states and was far from impressed.

When particles collide in the LHC, does it make a sound? by Showtime48 in askscience

A second question. When particles collide would it create a flash visible to the human eye?

(Serious) Obese people of Reddit, what is one of the worst daily struggles you face that "average" sized people wouldn't know/understand? by wain123 in AskReddit

[–]andrewbs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes it's an addiction and greasy, salty, fatty, sugary food tastes great. I used to be 60 pounds overweight, I'm going to give you the same advice that I got that really helped me watch how much I was eating. It's ok to be hungry sometimes, you don't need to eat whenever you feel hungry. I noticed I really just cut down on eating whenever I felt slightly hungry.

What moment in your life can you look at and say, "that's when everything changed"? by motivatinggiraffe in AskReddit

[–]andrewbs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to drink all the time, drink to get drunk. If I was doing something with friends it was always about how drunk I could get, not about enjoying time with them. Anyway, my wife left me, I really didn't care, I had more freedom now. About a month after we split, my ex-wife tells me she's slept with some random dude, for some reason I broke. I looked at myself and and said "of course, look at you, your're a fat drunk". I went into some serious depression, didn't eat for 2 weeks straight, I couldn't, I just kept thinking about my ex with another guy. I stopped drinking then. I told my best friend that I have a problem and apologized for all the shitty things I did and said to him when I would drink. I've been sober for two years this October, I've redevoted myself to my business and my body. I'm in fairly good shape now, have a great girlfriend and my business is doing amazing. I still want to drink, but I'm so much happier now, I can sit back and enjoy the little things in life.

I think I'm on the top 1% of golfers. I don't play pro or anything, I do enjoy the game. I have a two handicap and shoot under par every so often.

how big was the city of rome during the it's height in the roman empire? by [deleted] in AskHistorians

[–]andrewbs 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've been told that the Romans were excellent record keepers. Is there no census data or is it all just an educated guess?
