@WingsScotland Perhaps Netflix is where it’s at for Scottish films, as this was my second choice for a good, recently made Scottish film, and I think it's only available on Netflix.

@mitchell_david Well, hardly anyone's actually got Netflix.

Here’s a question: what WAS the last great, distinctively Scottish film? Trainspotting T2 was a brilliant movie but sequels probably shouldn’t count. When did we last make waves at Hollywood?

UPDATE: Two weeks ago, I presented to the Scottish Government and submitted a formal proposal to establish an Expert Reference Group (ERG) for Bitcoin. It wasn’t about investing, it was about learning, and how Scotland could attract the Bitcoin industry. I focused on three areas: - Financial Services - Investment & Business Attraction - Energy There is already an ERG set up for Digital Assets in Scots Private Law but my proposal is focused solely on Bitcoin. This morning, I received confirmation that the proposal has been circulated to members of the Digital Assets ERG, which includes the Deputy President of the UK Supreme Court. Scotland has a chance to lead, not follow. The conversation is moving, and that matters. I wanted to update and will keep posted on progress✌️

@michelleweekley An authoritarian state doesn’t stop being authoritarian just because you approve of its results. It just means you're being insulated from the coercive force the state exerts on others. @PeterMcCormack

Since I previously lived in Dubai and Peter has never even been here, I figured I’d provide some thoughts: 1. Does Dubai have elections? No. The UAE is a monarchy. There are pros and cons to most forms of government. In my experience the government here serves the people in a way other countries do not. 2. Is it illegal to be homosexual? Dubai has gay bars. Are gay people allowed to make out in the streets? No. Neither are straight people. 3. Can you criticise the government? Genuine and honest conversation is no problem. I’ve had such with local Emiratis and working class people alike. Everyone is here by choice because it’s a great place to live. 4. Can journalists criticise authorities? I don’t know, I’m not a journalist. You know who is? You are Peter. Why don’t you come here and see and then tell us instead of pontificating about a place you’ve never even been. 5. Is there freedom of assembly? Assembly for what reason? I attended a yoga event with more than 5k people. They probably had a permit, as is required in most countries. If you’re referring to BLM style mobs, no, it’s not. And IMO society is better for it. Why should the rights of an angry mob outweigh my personal safety? 6. Do women have equal rights? Yes. See previous post. 7. What employment rights exist for migrants? How do you define a migrant? People from all over the world come to Dubai to better their lives and in many cases the lives of their entire families. Does that look the same for everyone? Of course not. “A better life” depends greatly on where you’ve started. Lastly I will say that I have spent a lot of time in authoritarian countries. There’s a feeling of oppression in the air. You can sense fear when you interact with people. Locals are not encouraged to go out and experience the rest of the world, it’s discouraged. None of that is true here. Come to Dubai habibi, see for yourself.

@allenf32 Imagine what $1M is going to be like. Weeks.

guys should I start a petition to get bitcoin to 100k?

Girls, stay aware of crypto bros with high confidence -- they do not have all the bitcoin they say they have and they did not predict the market

Immense gratitude to everyone who voted for President Trump on my behalf. I trust him to honor his pledge and give me a second chance. After 11+ years in darkness, I can finally see the light of freedom at the end of the tunnel. Thank you so much, @realDonaldTrump 🙏

So much love for this crew. Next election we’ll buy better mics. ❤️

@nickburne I know @EdinDogCatHome are always grateful for $BTC 🧡

I need to do an experiment and will give 0.01 Bitcoin (about $700) to 3 separate charities. Please comment with your favourite charity name below and I'll choose 3 at random.
