RE: A Surprise for Mamma: A New Laptop

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

That super cool, and very sweet, that your children did that! I hope that she enjoys it!

For most people's purposes, that sort of laptop would be fine, since it's not used for very much. I've worked with many different laptop systems, and I have to say that most laptops that I've seen are quite sub-par, with lots of corners cut. This has made me very picky about laptops that I buy. My recently-deceased ASUS TUF laptop was pretty good, and the Dell G5 gaming laptop that I have now is a fair bit better than that. 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

With that low price, you might want to buy your second laptop, where you won't run #Qortal nodes (or any other node) 24/7 (and definitely not a "keyboard autocorrect"). 😎🤓

Here's my second !WINEX token tip for you for today, with !LUV! 😁 !DIY

When you wrote Qortal you must have meant Quortal, as English spelling always demands a "u" after a "q". :-)

It's indeed spelled "Qortal" and has official websites at https://qortal.org/ and https://qortal.dev/. 🤓 It's a decentralized platform which @tydynrain describes as "sovereignty-driven", and that's what the project founders named it. 😏

Yep, as @savvyplayer explained below, the name 'Qortal' is correct, which is another iteration on an open-source, community-run, fully-decentralized, sovereignty-driven social blockchain ecosystem. I've been active there for a while now. 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

You might be able to successfully recruit @gratefuleveryday to #Qortal (and/or your other sovereignty-driven platforms)! 😎😏

It would be better if you publish a guide to joining the other sovereignty-driven platforms that you use (if you have the time), so that you will have to answer less questions when you find someone here on Hive interested to join you on such platforms. 🧘‍♂️🤓

That sounds great. Let me know if you'd like any assistance. Qortal is very different, but also very cool in its own way. I'd suggest looking into the Voi Network as well. 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

There might be a third important factor, which is luck. 🤔🤯 Let's !HOPE that you encounter (at least) one of such laptops that are both (very) powerful and affordable at the same time! 🤗😅

That's incredibly kind, brother, and thank you. I absolutely don't expect you to actually send me a laptop, but I do believe it's possible, since I've had Amazon ship my previous one that died, and the new one that just bought to replace it. 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

You see that @borniet already wants to give you one of his laptops from his comment. 😎 You just need to tell him how to have the laptop delivered to you safely where you live in the jungle! 🤯😅

Do you mean that you think that Bjorn's comment about him wanting to send you one of his laptops was just a joke, and that you didn't really want to ask Bjorn (among all people you knew on Hive) for one? 🤯😅

Now that Bjorn has decided to send you a (good) laptop, you just need to provide him with the details to have the laptop sent to you safely (and affordably where possible). 🤗🤓😏

Your laptop might still be able to run some "lite" nodes (those that contain only important data on the blockchain, and not the entire blockchain itself) of certain popular cryptocurrencies. 🤯🤓 !HOPE !INDEED !PIZZA !DIY
