Had a longer drive this past weekend and listened to the following John Vervaeke pod... a fascinating, frightening, enlightening and inspiring conversation! They go into big data, AI, surveillance capitalism, as well as the spiritual aspects of this war, the healing mission, and the fact that one must descend in order to ascend.
Do you dabble in photography and visual arts? Would you like your work to be featured in a Bitcoin-themed wall calendar and earn some sats for it?

For the pricing model - one of the reasons was that as this idea occurred to me just a few weeks ago, and calendars are a time-sensitive good, I don't have the time to make a contest and a search for sponsors that's going to take a month or more. Plus, this pricing model increases the urgency for the potential sponsor to make the call one way or the other. But the main reason, I guess, is the fact that I have no clue how to price such a perk / service at all. So I figured I start small, but if there is interest, then the companies who jump on board later are going to have to pay a premium.
Yes, dream interpretation :) I don't make much of my dreams usually. But that particular one sort of got my imagination going. Appreciate the recommendations as well, will see if/when I can get to these, my "to read" list is way too long as it is...
Yes, the wave.space guys from Lithuania took the first slot (I met them In Helsinki and been testing their services for the past week or so - they're building a great project for the EU plebs for sure) and just checking now, I see that Angor has grabbed the 2nd slot so that's a good start I'd say :)
Edit: BTW you can see how many slots are still available via the BTCPay POS app: https://btcpay0.voltageapp.io/apps/4VyqudZQ4XSHTMfUL9EXbLjbdZsg/pos
Been mainly busy with the Bitcoin Wall Calendar and corresponding Open Source Culture Creator Contest: #1245319
But also wrote a poem "A Means to an End" #1233796
Which I then read out aloud in nostr vlog volume 6
And interpreted my own dream: #1230419
Otherwise, made some smaller and bigger changes on my websites (changed hosting was one of the bigger ones - remember the referral links issue? It was the hosting's fault and they were unable to fix it...), been working out, etc. Don't really have the energy to write a long overview this time, but I appreciate this thread and the reminder to stop, think, look back, be grateful and strategize. Godspeed. π€

Ahh I see! That is a cool idea. I'll think about it and have look at how easy or hard it would be to pull off. I think it should be OK cause I'm thinking of using Satoshi's quotes only, and I think most his quotes should be timestamped via the BitcoinTalk forum or email (if I can manage to not mess up the timezones).
