Very few: https://btcmap.org/map#4/-36.84446/-66.35742

But that’s not really the point though, is it?

As the earlier poster from Argentina said, pesos are used for the “last mile”. Whoever you’re trading sats for pesos with are likely to be familiar with Lightning and willing to do the trade with it because it’s fast and cheap.

As for the issue of broader adoption, that’s just a matter of education, trust, time, and the right incentives to make the switch in a hyperinflationary environment…

Any company would be right to have a "low" opinion of their average user. Have you seen how the average person uses their computer?

Curious to see more studies like this on other hallucinogenic drugs like psilocybin (psilocybe cubensis i.e. magic mushrooms).

I got a few lines down and couldn't keep going. It's such an irritating way of making an argument.

Yachts on the methane oceans of Titan and dirigibles in the skies of Venus.

I hope I live to see all this.

I believe they are attempting to criticise the author's writing style by invoking the stereotype of the neck-beard adorned ültra-geek who tips their fedora to a fair maiden and says, "Milady."

Late reply here, but in a recent post Juan said that he would begin working on the Vulkan port in May.

https://godotengine.org/article/godot-32-will-get-new-audio-... (at the bottom)

In the post I previously linked he said he expected the port to take a "couple of months", so we could expect it in any release made in the 3rd or 4th quarter this year, maybe as early as July?

I would love to see a version of this with the "noise" of the stars cleaned up and the brightness/saturation of the clouds increased.

If you want to dabble with prototyping games, Godot is the way to go in my opinion.

I've played with Unity and Unreal a bit, each with their own pros and cons, but for me Godot is the one I found most intuitive and easy to test new ideas with. Worth checking out.
