I should know this but are there any character limits to posts?

@ekzyis @k00b

I am already 10,000 words in on @siggy47's creative writing project and my character hasn't even bought bitcoin yet. Just kidding about the 10,000 words but not about the character limit question.

I think cooking every day on top of working and learning is quite tiring, how do people sort this out? 🤯

Sharing some of the hacks I've so far:

wash and cut all the ingredients after buying them
cook more, then put some of them into the fridge
precook some of the ingredients that take time to prepare, like chickpeas, so they can come in handy later on.

What's your meal panning hack? 👀

0 sats \ 4 replies \ @nikotsla 7 Feb

"cook more, then put some of them into the fridge" This is the way. But the only real way to enjoy cooking... is to don't have any issues with money :), so you have time to search the best ingredients, spend time preparing and pre cooking some of it.

0 sats \ 3 replies \ @Natalia 7 Feb

so you have time to search the best ingredients, spend time preparing and pre cooking some of it.

I have time for all of these, but it's a bit ( physically) tiring, and the hidden cost is there are so many things to learn and explore.

0 sats \ 2 replies \ @nikotsla 7 Feb

Uff... if it's physical, I will said smart buys of home appliances? It does not use more than 4 kitchen utensils for cooking, but short and chopping can be simplified with their help.

0 sats \ 1 reply \ @ek 7 Feb freebie

Oh yeah, I think the best thing I ever bought was my rice cooker. Just set, forget and boom, perfect rice! And it's very easy to clean.

Day 1 of living on My Bitcoin Standard ⚡🛒👀

Mostly so I constrain myself with eating outside since most places don't accept bitcoin¹ ...

Also, bills that get paid from my bank account will obviously still get paid with fiat. That's why I call this my bitcoin standard. I pick the rules!

And just starting with paying for groceries in bitcoin using https://bitrefill.com/ will probably be fun enough for now. Don't need to make the start more complicated than it has to be :)

I also won't necessarily mention this streak everyday in the saloon. It can get kind of annoying after a while, takes the fun out of things and misses the point. I might make irregular dedicated posts about my experience in ~bitcoin though :)

Let's see how long this streak lasts!

And constraints can make people very creative ↩

We should be setup with BitWage soon. Just KYC'd with them so you all should probably be able to get paid in sats in the next few weeks.

Day 1 of living on My Bitcoin Standard 👀

nice, ₿e the change.

paying for groceries in bitcoin using https://bitrefill.com/

how did you do that, buying voucher then click and order? ( now I go to weekly market and paying in cash ) but I think the more important part is about buying fresh ingredients, paying fiat or Bitcoin can come in later. 🤔

0 sats \ 7 replies \ @ek 7 Feb freebie

and paying in cash

I hate dealing with change so much, I have to admit that I always tried to pay with plastic first. But now I will mostly pay with gift cards. :)

It's also always funny to see how much work dealing with cash is for the stores. For example, the bigger stores all have counterfeit bill detectors for each cashier now. They check every bill.

Many people wait for things to happen or for someone else to solve problems for them, and that's what creates miseries in the first place - you should take the matter into your own hands, it's called self-responsibility, and that is what can ultimately set you free.

I had a group contact me for some private training. And as always, when I respond with payment methods, I always say I accept Bitcoin either on-chain or via Lightning. I have never had anyone pay me with crypto, but one day someone is going to surprise me. Never hurts to ask.

Don’t the beans indicate you have something previously unknown to share?

As in; ‘Did you hear the gossip?’ ‘What gossip? Go on spill the beans…’ ‘That guy Carlos is really a 50-year old woman called Carolino?’ ‘No waaaaayyy!’
