If your bank blocks payments from crypto exchanges, you may want to consider @bisq_network

Bisq is a peer-to-peer exchange that allows you to buy and sell crypto without having to go through a centralized entity like a bank.

Learn more 👇
Peer to peer means that your transactions occur directly between you and the person you're trading with.

This reduces the risk of your bank blocking your transactions, as it doesn't know they're crypto related.
Bisq offers a secure and decentralized platform to trade Bitcoin for a wide range of fiat currencies: USD, EUR, CAD, GBP, AUD, and JPY.

You can choose between wire transfers and Zelle for USD, SEPA payments and Revlout for EUR, etc.
Once you have selected your currency and payment method, you can find a counterparty to trade with. You can either accept an existing offer or place your own offer that can be matched by another trader.
When using Bisq, you don't have to provide personal information, so it's a great option for privacy-conscious users. Additionally, the platform uses multi-signature technology to ensure the security of your funds.
To use Bisq, you'll need to download the software to your computer, and it's available on Windows, MacOS, and Linux. Once you've set up your account, you can start trading! You can place an order to buy or sell BTC, and the platform will match you with a suitable trader.
When you make a trade, Bisq acts as an escrow service, holding the funds from both parties until the trade is completed. This provides additional security to both parties and reduces the risk of fraud.
If you're looking for a solution to bank blocks on crypto exchanges, give Bisq a try! It's a simple, yet powerful platform that offers many benefits to traders and users alike. #Bisq #CryptoExchange #PeerToPeerTrading

I daren't think of music too much before retirement or I'll never get there (passion is a weird thing), but another few favorites...
Beethoven's Piano Sonata No. 13 in E-flat major, Op. 27, No. 1 2nd mvt "Andante" is a very introspective and expressive piece, you can hear the left hand play legato while the right places stacatto, and the rhythm of the horses, glorious recapitulation
Don't forget he wrote NINE symphonies!

The fifth is probably the best known, but consider the moody second movement of the seventh

1/ If you're need to keep your identity private online
(that's all of us 'toons)

...here are some tips to help you stay anon:
2/ Avoid using a ‘handle’ or pseudonym that you’ve used before, or that people would associate with you.

Becoming a BowTied Animal is a good choice.

Avoid using personal information that can be easily linked to you. This takes some thought.
3/ Use encrypted messaging apps for communication, such as Signal or XMPP with OTR / OMEMO.

You could use Protonmail with PGP for email, but be aware your subject lines will still be plaintext.

Be aware of metadata: who you talk to is just as important as what you talk about.

In "The General", an episode of the "The Prisoner," the distinction between rote learning and reasoning is a central theme.

Rote learning is a memorization-based method of learning that emphasizes repetition and repetition of information without understanding its meaning.
In the episode, the military academy's method of teaching, Speedlearn, is based on rote learning and the students are expected to memorize and recite information without questioning it.
Reasoning is the process of thinking about information critically and drawing conclusions based on logic and evidence.

Number Six, the protagonist, represents reasoning and critical thinking as he questions the methods and motivations of the General and the academy.

Decent advice but for those wanting extra protection

1. Use a *local* password manager, don't blindly trust cloud services (see recent Lastpass incident), be responsible for your own encrypted backups. @KeePassXC / @KeePass on Linux
2. Implement Two Factor Authentication with something you have better control over than a third party / cloud service. Remember that if you lose your 2FA you're locked out, so the secret should be backed up. You can use a Yubikey but I have oathtool (Linux) handy just in case
3. Gmail knows far too much about you but Tutanota / Proton don't solve much because email to/from addresses outside of those systems is basically cleartext. But. Good practice to use different email addresses, one for each ID/purpose.
