@tripu I'm so glad you got me into April #dailyphoto so many years ago.I don't share them publicly anymore but I love looking back and showing people.I will keep doing it for the test of my life.

@tripu If you are reading this forget about the 90 days. The question is whether it will happen or not. If it does happen you don't want all your wealth to be in US dollars or an allied currency.Unless you are 100% convinced that fiat currencies are fine and they will not collapse, in which case you can carry on and have no action to take, you would be wise to hedge your savings into assets that cannot be debased by central banks.

@tripu You should hear the explanations that people give to support these behaviors. After a few years you either give up or don't bring it up.

@tripu It's only useful to cost hundreds of billions of dollars in lost productivity and lack of free commerce.Next get rid of customs!

@thedesertlynx You are an inspiration, Joël!Do you know of any similar services in Europe?I spend crypto occasionally (when I get the chance, really), but want to do it more often by getting a crypto card. Do you have any recommendations, guidelines or link to trusted comparisons?I for one appreciate your advocacy, please keep it up!

@thedesertlynx Thank you for the tip, I didn't know about Bitrefill launching a card, will check it out.I was comparing crypto credit cards recently, was looking at Crypto.com and Wirex. I guess the research would make for a nice blog post. :)

I finally switched to #Emacs 29.1 and from lsp-mode to eglot. However I quickly discovered that flycheck doesn't work with eglot, at all.There is flycheck-eglot (https://github.com/intramurz/flycheck-eglot), but it's not available for me to install. I opened an issue (https://github.com/intramurz/flycheck-eglot/issues/2) as I believe it's an unintended problem with the package requirements.Anybody else has faced this issue with emacs and flycheck and how did you fix it?

@louis Do you have your configuration published by any chance so I can peek at the flymake bits? I'd love to change and reduce my third-party dependencies.

@tripu A bet is a bet, glad the money goes to you before anybody else.I will prepare a blog post about my rationale, hopefully it will be out before the upcoming financial collapse and somebody actually listens. 😁

@thedesertlynx Would you recommend Zingo or YWallet?

@thedesertlynx Thanks Joël, I will use Zingo then.I have no interest in YCash, which I just read it's a hardfork of ZCash to have a supposedly fairer distribution.https://y.cash/what-is-ycash/

@tripu +1I hope that alternative frontends such as Newpipe or Piped keep working.Some people send me Facebook or Instagram links, that I cannot view because I don't have an account and they require login. The result is that I don't see those links. It'd be sad to add Youtube to that list.

@tripu That's a great list! I subscribed to Making Sense, Conversations with Coleman and EconTalk for now, but will keep your list handy.
