This is an interesting thought experiment. I am in Canada and was indirectly thinking along these lines today as I was walking through the downtown area of our town. The area was bustling today as we have many folks from the city already arriving for Christmas. It was nice to see all the local shops, restaurants and cafes filled with patrons.

Ever since I sold my business almost 2 years ago now. I have been keeping an open mind and open eye to what business I might start next, which I plan to at some point when the itch to do so it greater than the itch to not do so. I saw a small vacant commercial space next to a boutique hotel and I started thinking about what I could do with that space but was resigned to thinking about business licenses, permits to redevelop the space, the cost to build out something, financing, all types of insurance, hiring, payroll, taxes, and so on. You get the picture. I started to think more about the barriers to entry than what was possible.

Maybe just a sign that I am not that motivated to start something again or that something with a physical location shouldn't be considered. But also maybe a sign that even for seasoned entrepreneurs starting certain businesses just doesn't make financial sense and aren't worth the hassle anymore.

I know this isn't really what you were getting at but thought it was adjacent to your point.

maybe the future of running business is with a node and POW, then everything else decentralized - belong to nowhere yet it's everywhere.

me having tea and eating helva:) any movie recommendations?

just close them, the act of closing itself make you don't take anything for granted, like you know @nemo is gonna delete everything so you pay more attention for those deep and fun stuff:)

This makes me think browsers should have a 'save all my tabs for later' feature to harvest that netflix watch list energy.

this freebie will watch the stream closely

where is the chat? here?

no, they just don't have sats and thus didn't pay their fee. they have limited visibility. you should only see them if you have greeter mode enabled in your settings

can you reply to me in Discord?

Stay frosty dude!

Could you possibly tell me where I can download this in high resolution? Did you create it yourself? Nice work!

Thanks

What has been the best lesson you learned cowboy?

Wow! I've only been wearing the hat for 14 days, maybe is time to wash it but only have a bottle of whiskey on hand and I'm thirsty 🤠

Just a few days ago, I realized I have been wasting my sats on Domino's pizza all this time, while I could have just used another pizzeria (L'Osteria) that I knew people who have been living here way longer than me really like. It's bigger, better quality, closer but still cheaper and more personal. I can show how patient I can be since they can be quite busy but still be very nice and acknowledge that I have been waiting for longer than they initially told me. One time they were so busy, the guy taking orders and giving out orders to guest waiting on tables, he had to literally ask me if I already paid because he just couldn't tell anymore. I simply said no. He was happy since I just simply told him the truth and then I simply paid and asked him: "Busy day, eh?"

He looked at me, smiling: "Yeah, you could say that."

Then he didn't give me 5 cents of my change and said: "Something tells me you don't need these 5 pennies."

So there is even some personal social component going on with this place now :)

lol I guess I got what I deserved for not listening to @Natalia all this time :)

INTP master race checking in.

While I don't think its predictive power is zero, there's only a certain level of accuracy you can get with 16 categories. I find it fun to guess what groups people I know fall into.
