Arigato Sensei.
I'm letting the bitcoin community decide if it's worth it.
Little more back story: I started dating this girl last year but this year she got this job staffing events. Her boss kept adding to her plate and eventually I never got to see her. There was one night she got to my place close to midnight and just passed out from being so tired, then woke up before sunrise to her boss calling her. She left for work that morning with tears in her eyes, without even a cup of coffee. When I saw that I decided to do something about it. So I ventured into the land of A.I. fought my way through all the hogwash and created a chatGPT bot that handles all of her event staffing through sms messaging. It's saved her 20 hours a week for the past month, and 3 days after she started it got 75% of her events fully staffed. Since it's been working so well for her I'm opening it up for other people and just onboarded my second customer today. (you can check it out at www.pepur.xyz)
I know Bitcoin needs some real world commodity sales to really push it forward, and there's really not much competition in a bitcoin only play, but it's a slow build and time consuming, and I have 2 customers at the moment.
So basically, I have many of the setup for the coffee business already done, just turning everything on costs a little cash (ironically around 100k sats). So if the SN community wills it I'll consider it worthwhile.

The synchronicity of moving to El Salvador and my next door neighbor being both a tour guide and a wholesale coffee supplier has just made me feel like that's what I was called there to do, and I'm currently not doing it, thereby ignoring the call.
I might be late to the party. But You don't need an A.I. to summarize articles. There are some pretty good algorithms that summarize text that have been around for decades and don't use any deep or machine learning. (i.e. non computationally expensive).
I've worked with these algorithms before.. happy to help
That's fair. I'm not grifting lol. I'm just a libertarian and want all the nice stuff that we have (like auto loans, mortgages, etc. ) with out centralized banks. I feel like ordinals might be the key to that
Learning from history is valuable and can help you create the future you want.
Learning from historical mistakes and accomplishments is really valuable for acting in the present
I think you might be new this cycle, so you may not know history. None of these ideas are particularly novel or original, and have been raised and debunked ten thousand times. They all suck. Yes this is shitcoiner talk.
I'm actually not new. I know the history and the tech. One of the main problems with regular NFT's and their 'debunked' use cases is their barrier to entry. Bitcoin is the best for sure. There really is no other coin that matters. It's the only one that would be worth using for regular currency, which means the biggest problem with NFT's (their barrier to entry) is hardly a problem anymore. There are really interesting business models that haven't even been discovered yet using tokens. I'm not talking about internet business either. I mean the real world. Mass adoption wont happen unless using bitcoin is logistically better. Not just ideologically. Ordinals open the door for that.
or a coordinated attack to temporarily distract or slow down usage and adoption.
If anything they're going to bring more users onto bitcoin. So many "shitcoiners" are working on bitcoin now and there's only going to be more and you think that's a bad thing?
There's more utility to ordinals than just jpegs. In a hypothetical world without a government, having your car title or deed to your house as an ordinal instead of a physical piece of paper would make sense.
Things in the physical world that require proof of ownership could all be data saved as ordinals. That's the kind of thing that would make it a standard currency. Like if your mortgage was an ordinal that was locked into a descrete log contract, you could get a decentralized/crowdfunded mortgage loan (i.e. no bank) as a descrete log contract that you pay bitcoin to each month. If you could pay your mortgage in bitcoin, who would sell?
She makes fun of herself for it all the time and we joke about that and me being a nerd. We've accepted each other and our stereotypes. I definitely don't feel superior at all. She's cooler than I am haha
The dice metaphor is a good one, but still a little complex for her haha. Here's a little background on how difficult of a task it is to explain Bitcoin to her. For about 7 years she was a model so she spent most of her time and focus on looking pretty. She's moved up to managing other models now at a startup so she's not dumb, she's actually pretty smart. But between managing bimbos and doing photo shoots, anything that is tech related has to be super simple. Like not ELI5 but ELI3.
I wanted to start this discussion to hopefully figure out the best way to orange pill the average person. I'm definitely going to use the dice metaphor, just a little dumbed down.
