Just chill in the cabin with some chicken soup as much as needed, and comeback to your happily rambles whenever you feel like it. Have you finished God of War by now?

zkproofs for the win!
Buenos Aires in Argentina already rolled out a decentralized digital id via zkSync on the Ethereum blockchain for their citizens, you basically have a zero knowledge proof that verifies who you are without revealing sensitive information. No more doxxing required
For those interested on how zkproofs work, it’s all mathmagic:

Of course, public transport has a limit and we can root for both as well, including protected bike lanes even in the boonies like we successfully see in the Netherlands

Root for better public transport and active cities instead of car dependency :)

- Comment on U.S. residential solar on the brink of collapse 3 weeks ago:
Have you looked into partially converting your home to off grid solar instead? Basically you have your home running solar during the day and any excess/night time energy required you can get from the power company as usual

Sorry, I mistakenly read your original comment, transaction fees for USDC are actually free (gasless) via Base on Ethereum, eg: xcancel.com/coinbasewallet/…/1800653787960406031
Above costs are for other assets
- Comment on We have to solve the money problem! 4 weeks ago:
It has been around USD 0.001~0.008, but they are scaling aggressively so fluctuations aren’t as significant in the future regardless of usage. Details here: www.growthepie.com/fees
- Comment on We have to solve the money problem! 5 weeks ago:
You can actually do it using USDC (USD stablecoin) on Ethereum via Base for free:

Most people think of crypto as a scam, but there are actual useful products being built on Ethereum, and this is a great illustration on where it is a useful tool

You might have eaten a different cultivar than those exported. In that case, I agree, there are so many different varieties that we never get to taste, supermarkets usually only have 1 or 2 different types

You are in luck then, because both are climacteric fruits, meaning they continue to ripe after being harvested, due to producing ethylene gas that triggers the ripening
Throw them in a bag and let them rest at room temp. If you want to speed up the process, add a ripe banana or apple (or other ripe climacteric fruits)

Yup, I won’t even bother with it, there are a lot of better options nowadays
