@amineca : in the village (*) I live in, there's a repair cafe every second wednesday of the month.

(*) With the only "pyramid" in NL: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyramid_

I joined the repair people this month for the first time, and was happy to do some fixing.

I met a number of very kind people, and it is unbelievably rewarding to help people and see how that cheers them up - even if their problems are kind of silly.

I'll definitely be present again in one and a half weeks time!

Чичен-Итца.

Одно из семи новых чудес света (и шестое, которое я посетил).

Чтобы точно успеть на первую маршрутку из Вальядолида, пришёл к 6.30 за полчаса до ее отправления. И там уже ждали ещё несколько сумасшедших 😀

Первым делом побежал к пирамиде Кукулькана. Подумалось, что у неё тоже есть рабочая сторона - самые эффектные кадры получаются при ракурсе с угла.

... Once, in Egypt, I lay beneath the feet of a Sphinx. I thought that its body was all that remained of a proud empire, and I whispered a prayer for the soul of such a magnificent creature to find peace.

But I was wrong. It was not a lifeless stone body, but a long slumber after losing a battle of wits.

I asked more questions, but the time for riddles had long passed, leaving only echoes trapped within the grains of sand, colliding with each other under the merciless breath of the warm wind of the necropolis.

The pyramid of Bin Bin, which puzzled scientists for thousands of years.
The #pyramid is made of black stone, but it is not an ordinary stone because all its components do not exist on the face of the earth. The black iron stone is only found in space in space #meteorites, and here appears the other puzzle because it is a very hard iron stone and difficult to shape and dig, but it is not difficult to break, so how was it cut with that Accuracy in angles and deflections?

Indeed, a must-read for people who want to know more about Bitcoin and crypto-assets.

Anonymity: the traceability of crypto transactions brought down crime kingpins across the globe.

Efficiency: If it handled even 1% of the flow that Visa or Mastercard handle, the entire network would fall over.

NFTs: Cynics noted people were paying that money for a digital piece of paper saying they owned a jpeg, and the cynics were right.

But she ran into more financial difficulties…. #PamelaCarter & her husband fell into debt during the 2008 Recession, & a chpt-7 bankruptcy filing in 2009 stated that Carter was back in the nutrition business. Acc/to court docs, she was doing “nutritional sales” for Mannatech, a multi-level marketing co. “Pamela’s income comes from #pyramid [scheme] sales & fluctuates…,” the filing stated, though it never amounted to more than a few hundred dollars.
