thanks for this, wow

wtf, some kinda gambling bullshit?

Montenegro, Albania, Slovenia, Romania, Gambia, Israel

wasn't really enthused as these were all group trips but fucking hell they were all sick. You could tell em you were going to Somalia and i would probably go with you nowadays, the world is vast, interesting and beautiful

Romania is fantastic👍….Transylvania genuinely spooky…lively and young street drinking culture…stunning women (all vampires obvs)…

Detroit, laugh all you like but this city has great architecture, music, food and people.

….and some great value real estate in certain parts!👍

New Zealand is easily the most beautiful place I've ever been. Absolutely stunning. I wasn't particularly excited about going there at first, I thought it would be a bit boring, but after spending a few days on the North Island I completely fell in love with it. I even considered living there for a while.

We drove down from Auckland to Wellington and must have taken thousands of pictures. It's breathtaking. Probably the best two weeks I've ever spent abroad in my life.

When we left Wellington we flew to Melbourne, Australia, (which i was really excited about visiting) and it has to be the single most overrated city on the planet. Couldn't wait to leave. Absolute dump.

Funny how these things turn out sometimes!

Just my opinion though. No offence Melbournians 😉

Cheers BB 😊👍🍻

But did you get to South Island BB?….a whole other world again down there!…

I didn't, but oddly enough my phone did!

I left it on the plane from Wellington to Melbourne which flew back to Christchurch where the airport staff found it and mailed it to Aus for me. So my phone has been to more places around the world than I have!

I definitely plan to go back and visit the south island, I've heard only great things. Its such a long way away though or I'd go there all the time.

24 hour flights.... 😒

Cheers BB 😊👍🍻

Considering it’s just a ferry ride they are completely different worlds…north is all sheep, rolling plains, and long beaches.. South is mad glaciers, extreme sports & penguins…just crazy 🤩👍

If initiatives are to guide our development work instead of borgs we need a rational process like the one attempted here.

No one can ever know what the majority of biggas want without a polling system that gets a good sample. Vocal vested interests are a worthy source of ideas and should be weighed against each other (and other priorities that aren't so apparent).

As an example of priorities consider the 2 initiatives recently posted: inventory controls and sterling based pricing. In a headline they sound rational and obvious but with some unemotional discussion it's pretty easy to see they don't have much impact.

Our inventory counter could be marvelous (it's what we shoot for when we actually get to something) but it will not interface with sales on other platforms thus still requires most sellers to manually maintain and update by order. It's also common for sellers to combine and manage sizes dynamically. Yes it sounds like basic functionality -embarrassingly so ;) - but the reality is it will only benefit a very small number of people.

The currency issue is actually on our immediate horizon but the issue isn't changing to sterling. It makes obvious sense to peg things to the most stable fiat currency and then display as many others as is practical but whatever we do sellers will need to constantly adjust prices relative to inflation and deflation and as sterling drops there is simply no way around this requirement.

So neither of these are going to make life much better but to write them now we would need to drop projects on our infrastructure. And while these projects are not very visible other wide-impact projects currently prioritized are:

Tags are long overdue on lb and we have an open source project that is making good progress you can watch. More features from open projects are still coming this year and will effect every bigga.

Anyway, we salute the initiative borg for their efforts and the advocates getting initiatives off the ground.

This makes sense but it would be nice to hear from you a little more, when there is no feedback people get frustrated and you get shitposting instead of the intelligence that is there waiting.

Sorry but a stock counter doesn't have much impact is all we've heard from this post and its so frustrating it has a massive impact as multiple users have stated in the post below, you say it doesn't interface with the sales but every other marketplace we've used has this feature! This site has been great in many other ways we find it laughable that this is your response to a serious problem, the only people it benefits are the admins as it never restricts sales so as long as the order is fulfilled with a substitute you guys get your cut, how can other places implement a stock counter as a basic feature but it to complex to work on this site, is that what we're meant to believe because we've seen simple methods that can easily avoid the above issues you've stated, so we see no reason not to add this feature but from your response you seem to think tags are the priority!

The fact that you use other marketplaces is their point. Sell a unit there and how will the inventory counter know here? It still comes down to you updating constantly.

No we understand their issue but the fact they think it won't make life better is laughable when theres a thread below with nothing but reasons arguing for it, obviously there is a way for it to pick up on a sale for both sites as Transaxe is fully capable of a similar process so its not really a valid reason for us but no sense arguing about it they obviously cant be bothered to even entertain the idea.

I've never seen anyone asking for advanced cross-platform functionality. Being able to pause sales automatically when the inventory sells through avoids the unprofessional friction of cancelling buyers purchases.

appreciate a dev post, but why do you think a stock updater will benefit few people?

sounds like it would benefit All sellers?

Ive been done by subs a few times, and that's just me? 🤔

even if it needs some manual input from sellers, I'm not sure why if they bang in a hidden total and then just subtract the weight or stock number automatically when purchased once confirmed paid?

P. s. a polling system would also be a juicy update 😉

These are only our opinions, these and others will be heard in a rational initiative like the one outlined here. It can also refine what exactly we are trying to build and how that fits into what else we all need.

To add to this... I like the idea of an end of year awards thing just for a bit of fun. Top 3 vendors, top bargains, best flower/hash/cart/other etc.

If you changed the currency to sterling being that 95% or more of this sites traffic and customer base is from the UK, sellers wouldn't need to constantly change the price of listed items (not that they do anyway) and it would remove the need to do so

for instance , £30 is always going to be £30, inflation isn't affecting us in this sense, the only reason inflation and deflation affects us is because the prices are set in dollars... if you can't see how this benefits all of us can you please explain then why the sites currency is set to dollars? how are dollars benefitting anyone??

it's absolutely astonishing to me that this, and the stock counter is somehow not beneficial to many of us? it's one of the best and most important changes to ever happen to this site

I appreciate the reply and that you gave us some insights, and while things like 'tags' are a welcome change, they aren't saving anybody any money, and money is absolutely everybodys number 1 priority by a margin so big i can't think of an appropriate word to describe it, nothing can make our life better than saving us money!

Fully agree with everything here. Any opinions against changing to £ not being a priority are completely deluded. I'll be honest in saying I sometimes use a different site on the darkweb for orders, which is based in £s. I don't want my purchases to be a gamble. As a customer I want 35 quid to be 35 quid. Vendors won't have to continually keep altering prices. The one reason I shop here more is the community, reviews, variety and generally chilled discussions. However in testing times I want £30 to be £30 and not creeping up daily as I can buy quality weed at a stable price elsewhere.

if i was selling weed, and my price is fixed at £10 a gram, why would i ever need to adjust my prices if the sites currency is sterling?

that's not how cannabis works though, it's not affected by inflation in the same way that groceries are, infact, cannabis has actually decreased in price during this massive inflation hike > ref the link

in 20 years of buying weed, i've never been told "sorry mate that's going to cost you an extra tenner today, cuz of inflation"

£10 a gram is pretty standard pricing and it has been for over a decade, of course people sell grams at different prices, but this isn't because of inflation

sterling and dollars are equal in terms of stability, inflation is only affecting us because the sites currency is set to dollars, I cannot explain this any clearer.

thanks devvy

This is ridiculous you know what the people want and don't want its clear for all to see, most people don't bother weighing in on these posts as they don't believe anything will change just stop messing about and make the changes!!!

from my p.o.v. i think its absurd to stop infrastructure or tags for everyone to have this but just bring it to a proper vote and we can find out.

Never a true proper vote on here anyways love.

Well said CI 💯

biggup, if there is no real initiative process its just mob bitching

The bitching is unequivocally justified

common sense shouldn't require an initiative process either

this.

a welcome clarification!

Decentralisation, rebirth of the concept of governments and banks (stores of value and loans of value), the internet of money, the exchange of favours peer to peer, the recognition of favours, global decentralised online democracy, micro businesses go parabolic, communities become self sufficient, govts lose control. Its happening.

The xeb.

This guy is the new leader^

True though. example..I cashed out £3k yesterday just for posting on a crypto sub on reddit for a few years, 3-4 posts a week.. erc20 rewards. I use brave browser which offers free anti tracking, https upgrades, ad free browsing (inc youtube) and it pays as you go with BAT token. It covers my premium netflix monthly subscription and costs nothing.

I've read about this before bud but never decided to do it as I felt it would be too little. Can you explain more about it, i'd love to know with regards of how active you actually were. its a very clever idea. did you pay for brave or was it free? I'll go check it out thanks for sharing :D

How do you earn money just posting on Reddit?

from your mouth to jah's ears

nice list!

We bio engineer ourselves into organic super computers, harness the planets electromagnetic field as a server and live as gods in virtual reality.

but it won't be 'us' providing this world, it'll be engineered and controlled by a select few people who will have total control over everyone

yeah theyre called ai

And we don't need to leave the house to do it. Where do I sign?

You do realise the earth's magnetic field is weaker than a fridge magnet right xD

Web 5. Decentralisation of personal data. Anonymity. Buyers Markets. People realise phones arent phones and just tracking chips that post spam in your face all day so we go back to mp3 players that make calls. We reverse the inversion and regain the ability to tell human from computer and truth from fiction again.

Humanity cannot progress or achieve the things we used to while big data has us pinned down with the technology and the mind games, constantly draining every penny we have. We're so busy trying to create money with our bare hands to pay off the debt they are creating that we can't get anywhere and never will.

People are working to take apart that system as we contemplate.

For now at least we have LB.

It seems more than ever the Old guard sees the next wave coming and is way more on top of it than previous leaders. this alone makes it interesting
