I’m pretty sure they just charge the local currency equivalent in BTC at the time of purchase.

Do you have a source for that? I’ve seen local businesses like pizza shops and such accept btc.

Edit: the majority of crypto transactions are likely between exchanges, miners, and exchange customers. An example is the Blackrock BTC ETF buys and sells btc off an exchange in realtime in relation to the ETF purchases. I’m not saying no crime happens on the btc network but to claim 100% of transactions are crime based is just false.

Isn’t USD also linked to many of those? Gangs launder physical cash through businesses, ransomware can ask for credit cards or bank accounts, terrorists may take USD as it can be spent nearly anywhere.

I must be out of the loop, what is wrong with pepe aside from having strong links to 4chan?

I used to do the same when i was too poor to afford data on my phone or when i go through areas with poor service.

This requires foresight. Most people don’t plan on getting lost.

You track you direction throughout the day. My road runs east/west. If i leave my house and turn left, I’m going west, turn right im going east, I keep this in mind as often as I can.

I also know my general area pretty well and what direction each town/city is in relative to my home, which helps me find my direction if i lost it. I also like to remember which direction each major intersection goes as that helps me keep track as well.

I don’t think it is ridiculous that an older person should move to have their needs met. That is pretty much the entire point of retirement homes and communities, they are more centered around the needs of seniors. You also hear people talk about “this will be ny retirement home” which is often a much smaller place than they would have had before.

I won’t deny there are many other costs related to moving and the whole retirement home business has been getting exploitative but historically moving was actually a really good solution to her issues.

It’s the saying i learned as a kid. I’d picture a compass and repeat the words.

Never Enter Stinky Washrooms

Even if you have to look at it first, once on it you can go by feel where as i find i struggle to do the same on a fully touch control.

Haptic feedback like knob clicks or button presses are much easier to use without taking eyes off the road as often.

I mean their profile pic is them outdoors on a paddle board, so first impressions is yea maybe you do know cardinal directions? Anyone who spends extended time outdoors should.

I think its just best that we don’t force people who don’t want or can’t handle the responsibility of rasing a child into raising a child. People generally are not good at things they don’t want to do and being a parent is a pretty important job that often lasts for life.

Republicans all care about life and babies until it comes time to give time off to raise the kids, provide welfare programs for poor families, provide schools with lunches. Can’t kill a fetus in the womb but they dont give a fuck if the child starves at 5.

Its about long term effort investment. The game really gets fun as you start making lots of profits, upgrading tools, and automating the farm, although it can be tiring. There is also probably over 1000 ways to play. Some focus on mining, some more on social, some rarely leave the farm.

I can usually play it for about and in game year then have to put it down. Then I have a hard time picking it back up cause im worried ill mess up my planting plans even though my character is already fairly rich.

Sounds like a broken system where workers are being exploited. The operating costs of everything should be pirced into the food. Customer’s shouldn’t be expected to subsidize wages.

I could get the best service I’ve ever had, if the food tastes bad, makes me sick, or is undercooked I won’t be returning.

I could have rude service, have to send my order back for being wrong, and maybe even wait a while, if that food is delicious I’ll be coming back.

It takes a whole team to run a restaurant but if the food sucks or is unsafe no amount of good service will make up for that.

In this case wouldn’t the cooks time and skills be more important? Almost anyone can carry a plate but it takes a more diverse set of skills to cook various meals in timely manner while trying to prepare another 10 orders as well.

Not to say the server isn’t important as well but tbh, I’d rather have shitty service and great tasting food than have amazing service and terrible food. Ideally great food and great service, that will defintely get me back.

And we’ve also got a bigger housing bubble
