Don't you just hate when you wind up in a store with people who are in a socioeconomic class that is pretty obviously about two levels lower than your own?
what about that bitcoiner who ran a pet sanctuary in Second Life and who wanted to buy an old theater to show Disney cartoons "after getting a Creative Commons license"

surely he has some thoughts on this topic

In His presence the mountains quake and the hills melt away; the earth trembles and its people are destroyed. Who can stand before His fierce anger?

I just ordered myself a pair of these:

which should look really cool and sexy when I'm riding my bikecycle. Here's a pic of my butt so you can imagine it in the leggings:




I really want this jacket

but, even though I'm a bitcoin billionaire now, it's hard to justify it at the price point of a drat-dang graphics card.

i sent this link to Peter Watts a number of months ago bc it's exactly like one of the things in one of his books, and he always has these afterwords where he cites the current-day sources that lead to all the future stuff he comes up with, and comments on which things from his previous books he got right or wrong

he never replied though :(
