Any way you could get a UK distributor? Also would be really helpful to have this in an FAQ with the order email.

Speaking as someone who likes their products, but the purchasing experience is atrocious - they don't even accept lightning payments. And don't have any UK based distributors. No good options, sadly.

People criticize and Coinkite for the wrong things. The biggest issue is that when you have to buy from the UK they throw you to the wolves of FedEx who always hold up the shipment but are unreachable, and if you do resolve it you have to give so many personal details you may as well just use Coinbase.

Interesting side effect of using LLMs: I now tend to be a bit more demanding with junior employees to iterate and get things right because I'm used to doing it with Claude or Gemini. (As an aside, I have to use these services for work, but use free OpenAI for random low risk questions, and then use Maple AI for everything else in my personal life)

The original intent of mass schooling in the 18th century was as a means of socialization and creating a sense of national unity. Literacy and numeracy skills were a secondary consideration, but for the purposes of creating a more capable workforce. People talk about teaching kids how to think etc, but not clear to me that's the case at all or that anything has changed in the last 200+ years. Tbh, I don't really think the home schooling option is right for our family either, but thankfully my Bitcoin savings means we'll be able to afford private schools - still not ideal, but in the UK the difference is stark. When I toured one of the "outstanding" local state schools the halls were full of propaganda about climate change, islamophobia and LGBTQ+ rights. The academic results were not even that great, but that's not the most important assessment criteria for state school ratings. At least with private schools there is more choice, and kids and parents are better selected for not wanting the state to educate their children.

Napoleon's rise was when he showed proof of work by defeating his enemies, winning the hearts of his men, taking real wealth from his conquests, and giving the inhabitants of conquered cities more freedom. His downfall was when he controlled the state, implemented retarded trade policies, forgot about his own citizens, and led a conscripted army into a war of vanity against patient and ruthless Russians. Funny how being such a brilliant man with incredible insight still didn't stop him from going full retard. Should have stayed humble.

Lol, can't believe I watched 5 seasons of Yellowstone. What a load of shit 😅 Nice scenery though

Have to put my SIPP into Strategy because I'm not allowed an ETF. So much less risky, thanks FCA 😅

This seems bad. Adding a political element to already difficult high school social dynamics, and then making them a target of political parties and activists, compounded by excessive social media use ... just so left leaning parties can take advantage of people who haven't yet learned that the facts of life are conservative.
