US$15.35 for a panoramic mouth x-ray, teeth clean and scale, and 1 small filling (done properly, to size) in #Vietnam. That’s $23.34 in Dollarydoos - would have been $600+ in Melbourne.

All staff spoke good English, patient intake form was in English, rooms and equipment were super modern, and no waiting for appointments, same day if I wanted.

No fan of dentists but I’m going back for whitening next week; US$115 / $175 Dollarydoos.

Vietnamese fly home for dental work because it’s cheaper even with flights and hotels to do it here than get treated in the West. They’re going to have a medical tourism boom here I reckon once others catch on.

Fair point about digging deep, truth matters.

But if you really follow the evidence trail, you’ll see that Christianity wasn’t formed centuries later or out of political convenience. Christ Himself founded the Church. He gave Peter authority, and there’s an unbroken chain of successors leading from him to the pope today. The Catholic Church has been around for 2,000 years, not 500.

That’s verifiable history, not myth. If you’re a Bitcoiner who values first principles, apply the same logic here.

Trace the keys, verify the continuity, and don’t stop at surface-level Protestant timelines.

The early Church wasn’t some vague movement. It was liturgical, hierarchical, and sacramental from day one. And it never disappeared.

“And I say to thee: That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.”

Matthew 16:18

What history exactly?

TLM is 1500 years of tradition

New Mass was established in 1970

TLM attendance is rising

New Mass attendance is dropping

I’m trying a “no game Monday”. I’m gonna sit outside and smoke grass most of the day. That’s better than touching it 🤔

Traditional Latin Mass is the way.

Wow, Mosha hates Cesar Millan. I just watched a short clip, no other dogs in it, and she started barking and tripping out 🐕😂

Re entered the USA in Miami after a week in Roatan. I was wearing the ₿itcoin hat from Roatan ₿itcoin center. The immigration agent asked me how many ₿itcoin I had. I said not enuf. He then told me all currencies are going to zero and he held ₿itcoin xrp and Stella lumens. He let me in with no further questions. I did inform him xrp and stella charted against ₿itcoin is going to zero. He wouldn’t have it. XRP has just been approved as money and is going to the moon 🤦🏻

NEW: 🇧🇷 Brazil's Bitcoin Reserve Bill 4501/2023, proposing "RESBiT" to allocate up to 5% of foreign exchange reserves to Bitcoin, passes its first committee.

If implemented, Brazil would be the second LATAM country after 🇸🇻 El Salvador to establish a legal BTC reserve.

She said I was emotionally unavailable. I said I was just reflecting the #Bitcoin market.

France is now moving to label X an adult site, which would force it into the country’s age verification and digital ID laws.

That means anyone in France wanting to use X would need to show ID. Not to get into adult content. Just to get in.

Requiring ID to access the internet is how free speech dies and mass surveillance begins.

Don't let the bad actors trick you into thinking Bitcoin Core 30 allows you to re-enable the datacarrier limit:

1) Along with unlimiting the default, they also broke it further. datacarriersize=83 now (as of Core 30) allows for 83 outputs totalling 830 bytes of spam, instead of just 92 bytes of spam (9 bytes of which couldn't be arbitrary) as in Core 29 and earlier.

2) datacarriersize is marked as deprecated, and explicitly planned to be removed in a future release (likely silently, since "it's already deprecated").

3) Core never fixed the Inscription exploits (CVE-2023-50428 and CVE-2024-34149) which allow spammers to bypass the datacarriersize limit.

The only way forward now is a mass migration to Knots. Not the way I wanted things to go, but Core has given us no other choice. Once this is resolved, we should avoid putting all our eggs in one basket, and encourage the creation and use of multiple clients.

my beretta 1301 can handle the first 8 drones

its the 9th thats a problem

Too many things to do, but little interest atm.

Maybe I should start gaming again for a bit, has been over 2 years since I played the last video game for more than 10 min
