Hey Chris, thanks for your consistency over time with the show, even hearing your theme music calms my nerves and lifts my spirits each week.
I totally understand you need to shake things up a bit, and give yourself a boost!
I’ve noticed you getting more and more upset over the bip110 situation as the weeks go by, and not your usual calm self. Change is as good as a rest.
Really looking forward to going to Cheatcode Bedford next week and seeing Lyn Alden (et al) do their thing. Also I just discovered the Women of Bitcoin UK group, and logged into Women of Bitcoin online conference in early March, it was excellent! Have to say I am over the moon to see this finally happening, here’s to more women in the space.
I switched jobs last year and am working from home, used AI extensively to help me with my new tech. set up, integrating CRM to my email etc. invaluable. It’s incredibly useful in my work, helping me to navigate the legal and governmental mazes.. but is only useful if you ( the human) ask it the RIGHT questions.
Whatever new format you decide on next Chris, I know it will be good. : )

I separated from a long term partner last summer, very sad to let go of hopes for a future together.. but now 8 months on I’m finding new shoots. It feels amazing, never thought this would happen, but there’s a new life out there, just give it time.

Thanks Chris for a consistently interesting and entertaining show. If some of your content was video, I’d definitely give it a watch. Sometimes feel a bit stranded here in the Western Islands of Europe, when it comes to developments in BTC, but the meet-ups are definitely building.

Thanks for sharing your insight, and yes, Carpe Dium! Only one life ( or 4000 weeks ; ) I also think each person’s circumstances are unique, and it’s necessary to find a balance between spending to achieve your goals now and saving to achieve future goals. You are a young guy with no family to support ( forgive the assumption- but guessing the same for the travelling surfers too),
when/if that comes into your life, perspective and priorities can really change.

Nothing wrong with having a cow or a goat and taking some of their milk for additional fat and nutrients. Mass production is the problem.

Really interesting stuff from Torched there about the solar powered mining.
I agree with hgw39 that a bit of politics is good- and often provides a welcome laugh, but the hardware, software, storage, usage conversations are the most valuable. For example an interesting conversation came up recently on our local Telegram group about gap limits on wallets- man there’s so much to know!
Yes.. record your journey to Linux and beyond Chris. 👍🏽

I love your show Chris, in fact as a simple pleb marooned in Western Europe, I rely on your take for some sanity (you and a handful of others) in the craziness.
Some advice on the best cold storage options in your opinion for 25/26 would be very very useful.

It’s in the UK we say ‘dustbin’ and ‘lorry’.. I’ve never heard them put together like that though. What do we call those vehicles.. ? We’d always just say, ‘It’s the bin-men!’ Or possibly ‘ It was a bin-lorry’
It’s true the language is so old fashioned and funny when you break it down.
