Sorry this happened to you. Clearly one of you has good morals. Do you have proof of payment to use for a complaint to uber?
"The waves of sorrow ebb and flow,
Grief's tide, a ceaseless undertow.
At times the waters rise and swell,
Engulfing me in their dark swell.
The crashing surf pounds in my soul,
Emotions churn beyond control.
Yet even as the spray flies high,
The waters then retreat and sigh.
Like ocean tides that wax and wane,
Grief's currents bring both joy and pain.
The rhythmic pulse marks life's refrain -
Until the seas are calm again."
I wrote this for a friend who recently lost their father.
one approach to planks is simply by time. Start with 3 sets of 30 seconds, with 15 seconds rest between each set. Increase the plank time over the weeks. When you get to 5 minutes per set of plank you'll want to be reading books or something. :)
Probably a blessing given what's happening to women in Iran.
If their goal was to get everyone talking about their ad and brand, it worked.
All who wnader are not lost.
This. I delete everything after they confirm delivery. If I thought more about it I should do what the darknet markets do with escrow and confirming delivery and releasing payment.
Perhaps the wall is listening and enjoying.
Question from a neighbor: "Why do you get so many packages? Delivery people drop off packages multiple times a day!"
me, "Just order a lot of stuff for projects"
them, "man, that's a lot of project"
me, "indeed"
Turns out I've started a concierge remailing business by accident. Hardcore #bitcoin friends are paying me in #btc to buy things from stores in fiat, have it shipped to me, then I re-ship them to the original buyer. Apparently, my neighbors are noticing something is up. That's right, #bitcoin is up.

I am wondering what you think. I like to read out loud. I seem to comprehend better and learn faster that way. If I am not listening to a book, then I like to read it out loud if I am able to.
This idea has crossed my mind a few times... Maybe doing live readings as I #studybitcoin myself or maybe do recordings of books I share chapter or section at a time, publish on fountain or some other place.
Would you tune in and listen to learn together? https://video.nostr.build/ac6c025f6cbe48aa87bdac54b17a701de63e12df335efb4525c11b7dcc685254.mp3 (Forward by nostr:nprofile1qqsywt6ypu57lxtwj2scdwxnyrl3sry9typcstje65x7rw9a2e5nq8sprpmhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuumwdae8gtnnda3kjctvqydhwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnzd96xxmmfdecxzunt9e3k7mgpp4mhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mq9hxafw for Gradually then Suddenly by Parker Lewis)
I just recorded this on my phone (no professional mic or anything) after my first few sips of coffee this am (made a few mistakes. My accent is stronger some places, it's what's up). Wanna send to a couple of friends to inspire them perhaps to read the book (which I am just diving into now myself).
I'd have to practice a little and maybe with some feedback I can nail the right pace, intonation etc.
Looking into what would be a good microphone that's compact enough for my current nomadic MO atm and then this would probably be better.
Any feedback, support and reflections welcomed.

Your accent is who you are, no need to apologize or even mention it. It sounds great and authentic.
Basically,you're creating an audio book, stating the obvious here. The more relaxed you are when reading, the relaxation will come through in your voice. I'm a world of AI generated voices reading books now, a real human is a luxury.
Any decent external mic will help the quality tremendously. Smartphone mics are a mess for quality. Something like this works great to start (see link)
Keep doing it. You'll improve at all of it the more you do it. Stick with books that interest you emotionally. The emotion and interest will be genuine and come through the recording.
Great first try.

"Tracking pixels are small lines of code embedded in images on a site’s interface. They allow companies to see users’ behavior and collect valuable information for advertising efforts.... What [Professor David] Choffnes and his colleagues uncovered was that these pixels were inadvertently collecting data from private application web forms and then sending that data directly to Meta and TikTok."

Unintentionally my ass. They knew exactly what they were doing and planned to get away with it until someone noticed. According to the paper they stopped doing it....for now. I suspect the pixels are back within 3 months.

" the ease of digital payments often results in mindless spending"
i believe that's the *entire* point
#spend
#consume
get into #debt
One can design their life such that it still is simple and carefree.
