The next time you need an EV charger I recommend openevse. It is open hardware/software. https://openevse.com/ I bought mine in 2017. It lives in my garage in MN. I have had to fix it twice but ordered the parts fixed it myself. I just ordered the esp32 based wifi module to upgrade the original esp8266 which will let me run new firmware with features I'm excited about. I just started using the HACS integration as well. I don't have solar yet but openEVSE has features for charging based on solar production.

The thing on my desk I fidget with most is a stress ball that looks like the earth branded by Littlefuse. I also fidget with a plastic ring with a fake stone that spins and makes a satisfying sound. It fits my pinky...

We've started to do 'bowls' for family and friend gatherings. Each person brings a few things. Think of all the options at a Chipotle or similar. You can set a theme for the bowl like Mexican, Indian, Korean etc. It seems to work well for dietary restrictions as you build your own bowl. Also I think it allows people to put in as much or as little work as they want. The challenge is coordination, with small groups a group chat works but large groups you need a sign-up spreadsheet with categories.

Just food for thought. I do wonder what the eventual effects might be for bitcoin, hopefully positive!

Welcome back for the new year! Whilst I prefer the shows not focused on US-internal politics, I know there'll be some of that, it's only natural for a US based show. If we're talking about the US Fed, though ... what do you think about the NY Fed holding 7000 tonnes of gold on behalf of foreign governments ? After invading Venezuela, the US might be able to steal its bitcoin reserves, or maybe not. The gold in NY is much easier to steal. If I wanted a sovereign reserve, I know where I'd look!

This seems a very accurate description of btc to me, and also one which depends on two things: btc being hard money, and btc being usable as money for trade.

Trying to keep it short: Money used for Money-Commodity-Money trades is capital. This is how an industrialist uses money. Contrast this to the Commodity-Money-Commodity use of money by say a poor farmer.

It's interesting that you ask if Saylor is downplaying btc as an asset, when the clip you played has him describing it as capital. In classical political economy, capital is a specific role played by hard money.

I'd bet Saylor's selling btc is because of whatever Galaxy Brain thing I don't understand that separates what he's doing from a Ponzi scheme. But if it's not that, maybe it's simple? Buy low sell high, and he's betting against a hot bitcoin summer?

I just used opencode with their free model to unpin then remove a bunch of pinned but unsupported flatpaks. At work I've been using GitHub copilot for a year or so. So far it is just making me slightly more productive. However more important is I will more often try things I'm less familiar with because the cost of trying them is a couple minutes writing a prompt. For example I added dark mode to an internal JavaScript site on a Friday afternoon. It took hours overall, my 1st time using JavaScript, but the 1st prompt gave immediate results and I got hooked.

If I think from a gift perspective and back track to a theme. I mainly receive microcenter gift cards so my theme is DIY computers and electronics?

Sounds like you need a cat or 7. Business idea: killer cat for hire I thoroughly enjoyed the unplugged StarCraft edition but wouldn't want more than 10% gaming per year. And now time to plug your membership program and brag that I've been a member for 3 years. I listen to the unplugged bootleg and just subscribed the launch bootleg due to someone mentioning it in another boost.

I don't see any reason why btc couldn't stay under the cost of mining a coin for quite a while. The miners with reserves would keep going, and the small ones wouldn't make it. But my prediction is that it doesn't stay below $60k for long, exactly because this idea is widespread and people will start buying again if it does

I'm with Brent's brother for naming the van. How great would it be when it crossing the border for its name to change from something gratuitously rude, to confusingly French ? Allez Jean-Claude !

Not really enjoying the extended US politics arc of the show. I'll be tuning out for the near future, and will check in again after the US has calmed down a bit. Thanks for the first year of the show, which got me back into bitcoin.

    OpenWRT as access point tip: by default if you connect another router to a LAN port of an openWRT wifi device. The openwrt wifi device will operate as an AP. However, if someone fiddles with it and forgets or doesn't know to use LAN port (vs WAN)... Better to configure as AP for permanent installs.
