@ilja @duponin @humanetech I've been using the same sort of explanation (but using email and email providers like gmail/outlook in the analogy) - I think I'll switch to using phones instead (as some people inevitably misunderstand and ask 'So, it's like email?' 🤪)

@kev I was fed up of trying to type up a reasonable answer when people asked me... so when I stumbled across a tumbler screengrab that did NFTs justice I archived it on my personal site to send to people 😀https://neil.mckillop.org/nftBut you are accurate enough with your explanation too!😜

Trains to be screwed for a while longer it seems.https://www.scotrail.co.uk/about-scotrail/news-press-releases-latest-news-media-release/scotrail-introduce-temporary-timetable"The temporary timetable will also provide more than 515,000 seats each day, around twice the number of passenger journeys being made."So, on average, every second seat will be occupied.#glasgow #scotland #scotrail
