Shit, I should have downloaded it. No, I couldn't find a mirror. Guess I'll delete the post.

The video won't load for me. For a popular service Twitter is comically unreliable. Is there a mirror available?

I read a blog post by some people who started living off the grid who were talking about their mistakes. Not having running water from the beginning and having to go to the stream to collect water was more demoralizing than they expected.

Just make sure that whatever cryptocurrency you buy, can be traded in exchanges otherwise you will never be able to cash it out.

You are wise wanting to experiment with it without risking any real money, cryptocurrencies are highly instable and impossible to predict, treat it like a lottery, you can get lucky, not because you are smart, but because it´s luck, and more often than not, you will lose everything.

I have a psychological resistance to sending cash in the mail since it could get stolen, but that is a good point. If you just do regular cash donations of smaller amounts, some will get there and maybe some won't. I wouldn't want to send hundreds through the mail at once though. I would also want some confirmation from the site I'm donating to that they received it. I wouldn't want to send gold since it would be more expensive to ship than just sending cash.
