Just watched #TheBigShort for the first time...I understand why it's so liked in this community. We're shorting the whole system. The whole system is fraudulent. Housing is the only thing that got caught last time. It'll be worse this time.

Thanks! Your apk is wonderful.

Looks like Bún bò Huế, my favorite!

I'll look into that. I think SimplySessions has a video on Aqua

Bill pay is? I missed that announcement. I'll take a look at it later today, thank you. :)

Coming to USA yet?

My wife and I talked about that a bit, but we don't want our siblings to accuse us of doing anything funny with their children's Sats we give them.

Though that could be interesting if done every three years. 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18. They'd definitely see the impact of the Sats from the prior years.

What do you think minimum UTXO should be?

I want to set up a way to send our nieces and nephews some Sats for their Birthdays, Christmas, and Tết. We wouldn't be able to afford very much $5-$25 worth of Sats per kiddo, but my main concern is those Sats would become dust.

My main solution would've been Lightning, but I don't know of any ways to set that up for them where it wouldn't require KYC (since they're all underage).

Any solutions or ideas?

Funniest meme I've seen in a while. Tried to Zap you, but it wouldn't accept my 21 Sats.

Wonderful apk. I'm in a bit more of a rural area, but it's let me connect to some Bitcoiners a couple hours away. Hoping to make it to one of their meetups this summer.

#DeepSeek is pleading the fifth.

My wife just built the Lego 2024 Calendar for Tết this year. :)

My wife and I are working on our second adoption. We're going through a private adoption agency, instead of the State. Sometimes people ask us how much that costs. Now we're pretty open about our finances, so we don't generally mind sharing that it ends up being in the ballpark of $30,000-$35,000.

Some of our least favorite responses have been comments along the lines of, "Oh, so it costs as much as if you just had a baby normally."

This comment in particular really bothers us. First off, depending on what State we adopt out of, we may still be responsible for the baby's birth expenses in addition to the adoption costs. Secondly, most people have insurance to offset the hospital costs. From what I could find for out of pocket expenses in our State a birth is between $0.00 on State Medicaid, upto $25,000 if you have no insurance at all. With most costing between $2,000-$7,000 or up to the annual insurance deductible.

I know they don't mean any harm by it, but boy it rubs me the wrong way. Price aside, there's a lot of work and heart ache that goes into a successful adoption. Not to mention time waiting, not knowing when you'll be blessed with your next child. We've been told to expect between 1-3 years of waiting per adoption.

For us, we know we're meant to be parents, so we're putting in the extra work.

God bless my wife she made these amazing biscuits this morning. Paired with locally sourced honey, blueberries, and American made orange juice (heavy pulp). I cooked up the pork ribs on my cast iron skillet... undercooked them though, so I had to throw them in the oven for a bit.

It gives a response, which I had to screenshot to read. As soon as it finishes, it changes it's answer to saying it's beyond its current scope...

I may have to rethink my position on that. I didn't take into account the open glass top... Maybe 3 is the only one that fills.
