How is your morning, Gentlemen ?

All is well from 30km east of Carolina.



Only worry today is finding a sports bar where the wife can watch the super bowl. We'll watch it again when we get back home. For accordingly experience hath shewn that the super bowl in PR is accompanied by local commercials, rather than the creativity fest shown back on the mainland.

Imagine that... watching TV for the ads. Whatta life.

Jbreher, are you scouting it out for residency?

In a word, yes.

I don't know how productive the trip will be. I've never before scouted an area for residency. But the special cap gains treatment demand investigation. Perhaps most importantly during a down market.

One week here on the east side, next week on the west side. We shall see what we shall see.

For the time being, yo soy Boricua!

Enjoy!
I've been interested in PR for the same reasons.

The western side of the island sounds more appealing to me. And I've heard there are a lot of Americanos in Rincon. One thing that worries me is that my brother's friend, an FBI agent, said it's fairly dangerous in PR, and kidnapping for ransom is remarkably common. The official crime statistics are cooked (like most places, I'd guess) to make PR look safer. OTOH, I'd assume most of crime is relegated to the San Juan area.

Another issue is the lack of some American staples. A friend of a friend launched a successful ICO, based in PR. He said a few of their employees (from the mainland) couldn't handle the change. For one in particular, the final straw was when he found it impossible to get ahold of a roast beef sandwich.

Got to admit I don't really see the point in making it illegal.

Appart the fact that... It's just another currency, it's especially complicated to prove you own BTC. Unless we find some kind of hardware wallet in your home maybe...

Yay After well over a year and a half I have finally got my original account back after it was hacked.
Thanks to Last of the V8s for the reminder that accounts were being restored.
Any chance of a hat xhomer?
I don’t have an avatar and trust to your creative skills.
I also now have some merits I can start sending.
Hooray.

Welcome back comrade!

Ok, culture is the freedom of the people.

So I honestly think we are completely fucked. As a civilization, I mean.

Quick reminder on Calhouns mouse utopia: He had a big pen with lots of food and water and little hidey holes and bedding and everything a group of mice need to live and thrive. Unlimited amounts for practical purposes, in all categories save one: Space. He dumped a seed population into the cage, even numbers of males and females, and sat back and watched what happened.



In the beginning there was steady population growth, but after a while it slowed down. Then it stopped. And then it reversed. They were no longer reproducing, and even after the population started dropping they didn't start doing it again. Somehow their reproductive instinct had apparently been shut off.

He observed unusual behavior as the experiment progressed. Mothers didn't take care of their young, sometimes abandoning them or at times even killing them. Some of the mice which he called the beautiful ones dropped out entirely of rodent society, staying away from the herd and spending their time grooming and sleeping. There was increased violence, both in rate and severity. All of this is stuff we see in current human societies, especially in the west but also in most of the rest of the world.

This is too close to how Rome fell to be mere coincidence. They expanded rapidly, became decadent, reproduction slowed down and they crumbled from the inside. Rome had a population of over a million people, and in just a year or so they were down to 20000.

It happened again in the 20th century. Stalin killed 50 million of his own people, Mao even more, in Cambodia a third of the population was murdered. And 20 other cases around the world.

And it is happening again. Only this time it is not just one country or a larger region in the world. It's damn near global.

My interpretation is that there is something in the mammalian subconscious that is constantly scanning for population density. Too many, and it slows down. Way too many and it stops. This makes sense evolutionarily, any species that multiplies too much will end up starving due to lack of food, especially predators. All the methods we use to lower our numbers, from low reproduction to lack of proper childcare to physical violence and mass genocides are just expressions of an innate desire to get rid of some of the other members of our specie.

And if this is the case, then things will continue to get worse until our numbers are lowered, one way or another.

Without answering to all the Mao/Stalin part, it's clear that we're in a down period.

Pretty much every historian can see we are currently in a decadence system.

We're more or less the last generation with some kind of future. Next ones are completely fucked. I just hop I'll be dead before.

Nice one.
It provides a rather good explanation as to why I love to hang around with prostitutes.

Hawking called it.
Either we get the fuck off at one point, or we are doomed.
There is no way life can be sustained on a limited space (planet), whilst population is growing exponentially.
The numbers & breaking points change as technology evolves, but the pattern is always the same.

There are plenty of reasons to be optimistic.

World population is leveling off at 8.7 billion.   Education helps, a lot.  Especially educating and empowering women.  

Tech is moving incredibly fast.  Our information management skills are currently growing exponentially.

Environmental values are being heard by politicians including in repressive states like China. 

If you want wide open spaces try Siberia, Northern Canada, interior of Australia, North Dakota, Pacific Ocean etc.

No crowds there.
