Oopsy!

Who said that it was better to use offline FOSS apps?

-> andOTP

-> Aegis

-> KeepassXC

I hate the casual talk about football and politics, people mention something like if everyone was suppose to know about it, the more meaningless the topic is, the more puzzled they are when they realize that you have no idea what they are talking about and seam not to give a fuck.

"Sorry boss, football is just entertainement for light minded fool, my time is too precious for that" is what I wish I would answer him.

Ils vont rendre Kdrive de Infomaniak obsolète! C'était ma recommandation pour ceux qui ne veulent/peuvent pas gérer leur propre Nextcloud, mais après Proton et le e2ee ça devient le choix numéro 1 (à tester avant quand même).

Not sure of a use case for 1 but 2 would be awesome!

In this case it might not be an improvement. I really love the UX with scrambled PIN entered blindly on the PC like Trezor One (and 3 I guess) but I don't know if it's somehow less secure than PIN on device.

Otherwise I use a Specter DIY, definitely not the most user friendly experience for begginer bur super cool for advance user, the screen is like a smartphone screen, with plenty of space for fat fingers.

If they made one that look like this and had a touch screen to input PIN/unlock password, it will remove the largest flow in UX for this wallet. I hate to enter the password with this side touch bar, which take ages.

We hope you will recover soon, health is the most important.

Thanks for the support, the loss was a couple month back but these last weeks went so fast that I still feel it all happenend at once.

Time to get back on feet and fight!

Thanks for the support, feel better to share it already.

I did the enveloppe thing but with saving accounts (one for taxes, one for annual/semestrial bills + unexptected expense, one for holidays), however I have the feeling that I cannot fill them up as fast as they get depleted, and thus they often don't have enough to cover the unexpectes pass a certain (low) limit. Sometimes I use the tax resever if I know that I have time to the next bill and wait for end of the year extra salary anf bonus to fill up back.

But last year and this year I already had to sell some BTC to cover a gap.

With higher rent we will need a couple thousand more per year alone, so it will not get better. Time to fbd way to increase incomes.

No GM today, SM, shitty morning. Shitty year so far on many aspect.

A funeral, family vacation cancelled, huge unexpected expense on utility, rent increas annonced, spend already twice in the last month an amount double or triple because I was not organized.

At least all the shit come at once, hopefully it will be quiet after that wave.

Same for Bitcoin Lightning as payment. The experience should be so much better on merchant and customer side, then people will use it because it's concenient, not because they believe/understand it/want to be self-sovereign.

Just imagine not having to exchange dozens of various currencies and pay high fees when traveling abroad, it's just one obvious advantage of Bitcoin, let's make more now!

Beat Google/Apple/Samsung Pay all at once, beat PayPal, SofortBank, Sepa Instant, IBAN, Swift, beat Alipay, WeChatPay, Twint, Satispay, Payconiq, MB Way, Bizum, Swish, Vipps MobilePay.

Let's make all of these obsolete and painful to use compare to Bitcoin.

Nobody knows but quick maths:

A decent house in my area cost today 1.5 millions (more or less in USD, I'm not in US), it was about 500'000USD 30 years ago, so it might be between 1.2 (Bitcoin works, people stop speculating on housing because Bitcoin become a better store of value and the cost increase just to reflect the demand for housing to actual live in) and 5 (housing market continue to go crazy and rise faster than inflation). So price could be between 1.65 and 7.5M, let's say 3MUSD as middle of the price range.

Inflation could go crazy but not as fast as Bitcoin. Let's say 5% per year.

If I manage to get 5% return of my invested money on top of inflation, I could retire with 2-3MUSD. So let's say with 6 MUSD I could retire in 30 years.

But I guess Bitcoin will rise much more than 10% per year on average, so it could reach 6MUSD or more by then even if it slow down after that, it will still be between just enough and very comfortable to live with 1BTC in 30 years.

And you, what do you think?

1BTC should be way enough by then.

Ce n'est pas un mod fait pour le gaming à la base? Faudrait que j'essaye une fois car mon Windows ne me serre plus que pour les jeux, et encore que certains qui ne marchent pas bien sous Linux ou pour les bidouilles de jeux modifiés pour les LAN parties.

Open the door and pee while cooking. Just beware of splash of hot oil on your dick.

It's not for women and to take a dump you must use the toilets at the Starbucks down the building.

There is no shower, you go outside naked when it rains.
