Last Notes npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Until someone with more details can step in, I've seen several sources showing nostr dms as presently implemented are insecure as the sender and recipient are visible. I am unsure if the content is visible. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student https://youtube.com/shorts/MNmJqwTn7IA?si=HnaQbJtSjtzt0RAw npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Personally in the uikely event that the governments across the world started being financially responsible, paid off thier debt, stopped printing money, and therefore made bitcoin stagnant and of no additional benefit I'd call that a win, but I strongly doubt that will happen. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Was he scared of those terrible unregulated, uncustodied sats? 😁 npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student In june I had a series of discussions and was introduced to a concept "the four agreements" by don Miguel Ruiz. I looked I to the book and in the first chapter I find similar difficulties in this book as I had with the book "mere christianity". The book starts with assertions and assumptions that don't seem accurate to me. I am trying to plow through but it becomes hard to invest in a book you disagree with in the first chapter under its base assumptions. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Today I'm a bit tired. My j.o.b. is becoming more about process than results. I try to avoid using the term "fiat" as a blanket for "bad" as I've seen elsewhere, so let me say we are reaching a word where we are driven by numbers and stats more than getting actual work done. The bigger the company is, the more this is. I think the part that is eating my soul is that it's asking me more and more a cog in the machine and I don't feel what I do matters. I'm also in a field that it's so pervasive that I don't think it's better with any other company. I've tried for a few years to turn this ship and cannot. I've likely made some enemies and probably hurt my professional prospects one the way. Thanks for letting me vent npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Seems like vevor makes a bit of everything. Crazy. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student I don't post often because I don't feel day to day occurrences need to be on my social network. I do wonder though how I'd bring value to nostr. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Nostr is the only place I feel I can post a thank you to an author and feel they actually see it rather than a producer, media secretary, or other handler. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student I can't right now bit if anyone wants to throw in an image of a feed lot that might say something. I will say in that case though it's the method rather than the cows themselves that are an issue. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student I've eaten bugs, bu lt it was on a dare. Crickets just crunch, like burnt breading and ants texture is like licking cornmeal off a plate. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student The translation in amethyst is pretty bad, but I do see them. I am curious what client they are using as all Japanese comments appear without context or previous comments. Are they using some special setup? npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Maybe I'm naïve but I have found random animals wandering, including a mother cat with new kittens that got into my yard. Neither the mother nor the kittens had any tags (we check for rfid chips too) so we got them rehomed. If there is a collar/tag and a means to reunite them with their original homes I'd jump at the chance. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student I'm curious, did the cat have a tag or was it chipped identifying it ? Absent of any evidence to the contrary I can see how they might think its a stray. I get that it worried you but did they have a means to reach you to advise you they found it? npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Welcome npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Thank you. I think you will find the name of the city is Waco in the state of Texas npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student If you wish, but may I ask why? npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Freedom means anyone can open a stand and put up a sign " I'll kick you in the nards for $1" and they are free to sit there with no customers until they give up. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Bitcoin allows anything, just for it like brash or bsv did. People wi eitger take it up or not. It seems in those two cases most users opted against the change. I could, for example hard fork a bitcoin where 1% of all spends come to me and if by some miracle I convinced enough people to use that fork, I could spend that newly formed coin. Try what you want to try and let the market decide. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student I listened to Creature from Jekyll Island as an audiobook. I start to feel much of the fault is in the education system teaching modern economics. until we have more understanding, people will continue to think the tools they modern system uses will eventually fix the problem. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Mandibles isn't strictly a bitcoin book, but it does fall into the "collapse of the world as we know it" genre. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Does that mean the cost of office rent or offices themselves would go down and present opportunities for newer businesses? npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Do I think a person would act according to the rules of thier tribe moreso when in that tribe? Yes. Do I think k someone outside of thier tribe might be more wary of those around themselves and act in a way to protect themselves when not around thier tribe? Also, yes. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student I'm not sure if I've seen enough of the world to say worst, but I'm sure the u.s. is filtered from the most egregious levels of the things that bitcoin protects from. I.e. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Sometimes it's better to not know 😅 npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student People find themselves in elder care facilities for reasons other than diminished mental capacity. I'll flip the thought the other way and say all mentally capable people should be able to investing whatever they like. Freedom means letting people make thier own choices whether we agree or not. As far as mental patients, no they need to be protected. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Glad to see you have good priorities. Thanks to all parents who raise and teach thier children. Those become the people you have to interact with in the world every day. I wonder where some parents were when I see how some people behave. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student I see the reference to the Howey test but the phrasing is a bit difficult. Are you asking if we should be collecting money from those in nursing homes for investments? If so then yes, provided they are mentally capable. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Looks great to me. No problems here. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student I got an email this morning trying to convince me to buy a ticket to the pacific bitcoin conference. Curious, I went to thier site and tried to look at the schedule to see if the topics would interest me. There was no schedule posted. This is the third bitcoin conference I've seen ads for that did not post a schedule before marketing/selling tickets. We wouldn't buy a ticket to a movie not knowing what was playing. we wpuldnt buy a sports event ticket not knowing what sport would be played ot what the teams are. Why do they think we'd spend hundreds of dollars buying a ticket that's a big blank for what will be presented? Normalize holding event managers of bitcoin events to the same standards for others. Don't buy tickets just because they slapped bitcoin on it. Don't support people, events, political parties,etc just because they invoke bitcoin. Thank you. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student This is a great example of the message getting lost in the medium. I dont know what the people are advocating for or protesting against, but I guess I'm trying to read too much into it. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Good morning all npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student I made olive oil garlic mayonnaise today. Tomorrow's plan is sourdough. I welcome any feedback or suggestions on recipes for either. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student I'm not lurking per se, I just don't think I need to post every meal and every thought that crosses my mind like instagram,facebook,and Twitter. But I do appreciate all the nostrplebs and og's out there. Gm and hi to all. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Goodness, this shook my childhood memories. Blond European girl enters a house and helps herself to its contents. She feels entitled since those who live there aren't like her. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student https://youtube.com/shorts/W-_8APKdosc?si=Mbx8mhCLLeCfxAZZ npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Guy, I'd like to hear your thoughts and any approach on deprogramming that belief. The crux is as you said of one feels it can't be changed, they do not try. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student When I tried to learn to make soap I became frustrated that most soap "making books were actually soap milling (adding things to existing soap like flowers,oils,etc). I'd start to read the directions and most started with "take your bar of soap and chop it up". npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student How is it going? Is the soap drying out well? npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Was she causing harm? Maybe she'd be liable for the cost of the electricity used, but otherwise let it be. That said i am a believer in owners of landing property being able to say how that land and property is used so if she is found and asked to leave, she should. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student I did not know, thank you npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student I know what I think a shadow coder is, but can you define what that means to you? npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Harsh in my opinion in that a person is not totally invalidated by a single mistake. This personal may have value to offer in the future. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Last time I asked this it came off a bit like trolling, so let me try another way..... with o.g. bitcoiners being drilled on "not your keys,not your crypto", how are federated ecash/mints building trust and minimizing risk? npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student The unstated assumption in this context is consent. If two adults want to smack each other with sticks, put splinters under thier fingernails or whatever, go for it. I think the working class are less likely to have a perverted views on humiliation. They get enough of that in the daily 9-5. If I had a nickel for each time I had to apologize for someone else's actions at work I'd already be retired. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Oh man my public school conditioning is trying to kick in...... "social contract","infrastructure","public good". Get it out..... The govt training won't shut up. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student "Somebody has got to do something"- battle cry of politicians seeking to take more freedoms. I'd also put "think of the children" in that same boat. Most misused phrases ever. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Well that's one way to donate to a scammer quickly. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student I don't post much. It not because I dislike nostr. It's not because I'm posting elsewhere( I closed by Facebook years ago and never had instagram,twitter,etc). I just work on me and my life. I'm no influencer. I'm not a role model. I am just an average pleb trying to make it. Good morning everyone. #nostr npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student That internalized trauma also closes you eyes to what you deserve and what you can do. Sometimes the mental walls are the hardest to overcome. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Any hero who seeks that status for its own sake doesn't deserve it. Much like politicians who seek the post for the power or money it provides don't deserve it. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student I prefer the first definition https://image.nostr.build/e5c7de808758da7727a780fb9d0ffc89d4ba6dbcdf0ef7db114e5f03414af6fb.jpg npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Brevity is wit npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Do you mean where nuclear reactors are steam powered in thier heart? Maybe the Flux capacitor is alpha/beta voltaic, I think those existed then. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student I find that traveling is enlightening. Sometime it shows you something you didn't see before, sometimes it makes you miss what you've at home. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student I don't know the solutions to the world's problems, but I was taught when I was young one should get their own house in order first, so you have the ability to help others afterwards. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Very interesting. Let us know how it turns out. Be sure to let it age/season before using it. even a small pocket of unmixed lye in your soap will ruin your day. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Unpopular opinion. If we are spending to encourage adoption, Isn't selling encouraging adoption of on and off ramps? My own twist on some comments made by @npub1587…kv0n. Thank you Jack. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Agreed, meek does not mean a doormat. I've always said I don't want to be the loud, abnoxious person in the bar proclaiming my greatness. I'd much rather be the person in the corner doing my thing while the others say about me "Don't mess with him, you'll lose" npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Not that I have a giant #bitcoin stack,but there is still something that I'm having trouble following. While I totally understand and agree that we want to avoid moving between fiat ant Bitcoin networks as there is a loss at each trade, How does everyone work in a world where most of the economy is still in the fiat/dollar world? npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Thanks for the suggestion. I'll look it up. My first thought though was politics are fun, so long as you aren't the one paying for it. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student No sir, but if you figure it out let me know. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student I prefer to think of it this way. Why were we ok with a central party deciding what we could share with the world due to some artitrary rule? Central services are very skilled at distributing data to large numbers of people, so long as its in thier best interests (financial,political,social,etc) npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Thank you so much Guy. These reminders help knock us out of the concerns of day to day toward focusing on future. I totally know and understand that feeling that what we do doesn't matter. I've felt so burdened by the day to day that I've lost the plot and this helped me go back into looking at the bigger picture. It's not a one time event, being made to focus on the larger scope is an ongoing battle, given that I and likely others often get caught in the mire of the daily actions. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Howdy npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student So true. Only psychopaths want money for its own sake. People really want what it provides npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student That's because the customer they serve is not the individual, but the banking system/businesses. The wolf doesn't ask the sheep's opinion. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student I would submit the worst device would actually be any ledger device with its special "feature" of off device seed storage npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student #nevent1q…fhvq npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student #nevent1q…fhvq npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student I request suggestions on worthy causes that can take the sats donation. Opensats, perhaps? npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student I'm looking into joining the porcupine fest in New Hampshire. Had anyone been before or can you offer any advice? In a first timer and not prone to spontaneous social interaction. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student I'm not usually a Joe Rogan follower but they have a point. Why have we as a society decided its okay for government and companies to decide what we can or cannot do. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student I think @npub1587…kv0n might find this interesting if he hasn't seen it already. A great case study in " the limitations lead to a more elegant design." npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student If she's in, I'm out..... j.k., bitcoin is for enemies npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Are you committed to gassifier or should you consider a stirling or seebeck effect generator? no biochar or wood vinegar but more energy generation. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Good morning everyone. Make it a day worth your time. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student I'd walk on it. They've walked on us enough. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student May I address the elephant in the room? How can we trust the science when we are told the science is too complicated and we would not understand it? npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student I look forward to the day it becomes common sense everywhere to not wait for permission, therefore starving centralized services. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student I wonder about those who constantly need to have thier life choices and decisions supported or affirmed. A strong person does what they believe is right, regardless of what the crowd says. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student The story of why he left Hollywood is both sad and inspiring. Leaving behind a career to show he really valued his family. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Imagine if an enterprising developer built an interface for the already existing global ticketing system that sites like priceline and Orbitz already use. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student https://fountain.fm/episode/YqHzP66wn2L0NLnsWGrW npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Sounds like my job slapping "senior" on the front of a title in lieu of a raise. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student As the comedian said "I haven't found that job yet that will pay me to sit on bitt and drink beer" npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Do you also sell the wool? Of so what breeds do you have? npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Ive had "not your keys, not your coins" drilled into my head. What are the failure modes? How ruggable is this? Every model I've seen ends in "trust me bro". npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Is this still applicable in a zero reserve environment? Can't the bank loan a few million to whatever purpose they wish regardless of the balance of cash on hand? npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student You fully earned a follow. Keep that up and you'll drain all my zaps and have earned every one. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Reminds me of a recent statement by guy swan regarding the $10k transaction reporting limit. It was a years salary when introduced, today its a medium sized house repair or a car. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student In a way, she's right that it undermines continuation in the bipartisan dichotomy that has been so ineffective so far. Bitcoin is full of uncompromising freedom lovers and that means the community won't accept agreements about which side gets to steal and abuse our rights for the next few years. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Brotherhood is also darker,not counting a certain girl and dog. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Financial stability is a great present.... npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Do they still have the mclobster? That was quite some time ago so I'd not be surprised if they don't. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Trying a nostr node within lnbits npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Listening to the "once bitten" podcast and reminded of a simple truth. Bitcoin has no central authority but this is beneficial because no one person or entity can speak for the needs and wishes of the world. Economics is the understanding the asymmetry of these things. What you hold vital someone else may consider totally unimportant...... and that's ok. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student It's all about perspective. Several people interpret this as "when do I sell my bitcoin" but I think that's a bad approach as it means you were in only as an investor, not as a new money. A better approach I think is up or down, spend youe bitcoin as native bitcoin (including L2) and work to build the in network economy. The principles of frugalityand saving have been good principles for centuries. npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student I'm still quite hesitant to place any large amount on liquid based on it being essentially a 15 part multisig if I follow correctly. Is it not a centrally controlled ledger of around that many companies? npub1lvac42khgvevmn5ej2yzzuplt4fy4puf07evc38s32ej829lk5gqwyl5gg Eternal Student Throwing this out, would it be possible to charge based on an exponential curve for bytes used? Encourage miners to charge on a exponential curve, making very large things like inscriptions prohibitively expensive while keeping small transactions cheap.
