Last Notes npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea Respectfully... npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea Should the ecumenical talks occurring between Eastern Orthodoxy, Lutheranism and Catholicism be successful within our lifetime, and should the three largest churches in the world return to active communion with each other for the first time in a millennium, I don't think the world is quite prepared for what that could enable. At the moment, Christianity is on the defensive in the culture war and have been for quite some time. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea She's not bad but we all know that there are two main reasons so many guys go crazy over her. I'm a man of culture; I think an excessively large bust size is honestly not that attractive. Pomegranates, not pillows 🤷♂️😂 npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea Any righteous man would kneel before a righteous king. The trouble is that there are not many righteous men. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea Never give up ✊ 😂 npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea I am a firm believer in the power of beef stew to cure a downer day. #food #foodstr npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea I just discovered sidebar editing on #Ditto. This is the sort of customization I absolutely love in a Nostr client! npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea I wish I had the capacity to self-host AI but it's a financial issue for both that and the subscription. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea I'm aware, which is why I don't fault them for having limits, I just think100/week is extremely limiting to people who do are subscribers. I have a hard time paying an additional $10/month on top of the Unlimited subscription just so I don't get as heavy of a limit on my text queries. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea I've been talking about how much I appreciate Proton's Lumo as of late, and that's still true, but only giving free users 100 queries per week is extremely restrictive. Not as bad as the 10/day that Venice offers but still not ideal. I feel like Proton Unlimited subscribers should at least get 250-500 queries per week since we're the bulk of Proton's income? 🤷♂️ #ai #aistr #proton #lumo npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea I'm still not worried (I mean, seriously, doomerism is just cringe) but I really don't know how we can keep going through these market cycles like this and not come out of them with boatloads of people who realize the futility of a fiat currency system... npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea I finally caved and got myself a Proton Unlimited subscription... but now, they're badgering me to upgrade to Proton Duo. I love this company's products/services but between their extraordinarily annoying social media manager(s) and the constant lambasting of users with ads, it's starting to really become grating. #proton #ads npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea Atheists really are the epitome of cringe and ignorance. They love their "gotcha" arguments but clearly have never actually read the book, or even the doctrines of the one religion they typically criticize. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea Porn is degenerate slop that LITERALLY rots brains and shouldn't be considered legal or free speech, so this is the smart play. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea It's a gargantuan psyop. I am 100% positive of that. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea You don't have to go quite that crazy. If you're looking to Asia, there are loads of more traditional women in countries like the Philippines. You'd probably want to stick with the provincial girls rather than the city girls (who are typically westernized) but yeah, not nearly as rough as going to a remote village in Cambodia 😂 npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea I hadn't had one in years myself, but I got one the other day and since then, I've had two more... hard to stop! npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea I hate to give McDonald's any credit because I know it's just slop, but I have to hand it to them: McGriddles are pretty exceptional. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea WORD5 #705 3/6 npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea The main reason I removed it was because I learned more about MWEB and how it's better for person-to-person privacy and it's not ideal for public listing like I'm doing with XMR/Silent Payments. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea Since payment targets are rising in usage on Nostr, I just want to remind everyone that I have two addresses set in my payment targets: Bitcoin Silent Payments, and Monero. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea I really don't have a clue how people can drink, let alone ENJOY skim milk. I'm not the "government conspiracy regarding raw milk" sorts but skim milk has to be a psyop. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea Maybe I missed something, but where did you get the idea that they can access your chat history? As far as I'm aware, everything's end-to-end encrypted, and unless you have the paid plan, it's not even saved on your device past seven days. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea I don't think I've EVER been more annoyed than I was watching this and hearing that idiotic family ranting about the cops and yelling at their kid. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea Then you have me, who was never a Bitcoiner, but rather, who sees value in various blockchains for different purposes 🤔 npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea Exactly why I prefer to use something like SimpleX for private messaging. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea So, as much as I'm enjoying Ditto so far, I'm not a fan of how all my actions (especially reactions to notes) show up on my profile page. Is there a way to turn this off? It clutters the page a lot. #asknostr #ditto npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea I decided to check out some other Nostr web clients. Up until now, I had used Primal, NoStrudel and Coracle. Primal was generally my go-to due to its easy-to-read UI and its "enhanced privacy" feature since I don't always use a VPN. However, since I decided to upgrade to Proton Unlimited, I'll be using my VPN a lot more, so I figured it doesn't hurt to check out some others. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea I'd need hardware and storage to run that on. Currently, my home lab is pretty much all used up for other purposes. Proton Unlimited includes 500 gigs of cloud storage, may as well use it for something. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea I do! I'm not sure which clients support payment targets but I have a Monero address and a Bitcoin Silent Payments address in the payment targets on Amethyst. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea Proton really needs to hurry up and get some sort of desktop application for Proton Drive on Linux. I need syncing, not just manual backups, but they're dragging their feet on the Linux application. This, and the Linux GUI for Proton VPN is also lacking a couple features, such as split tunneling... npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea Side note, I could've sworn I was already following you but apparently not. Rectifying now. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea I KNOW everything happens for a reason. "In my experience, there's no such thing as luck." npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea That's why I try to get more people involved even if they've never been into Bitcoin. We desperately need more content variety. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea Uhh dude, I think you accidentally hit the post button on this one 😬😂 npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea I never grow tired of Maria Coman's voice. You've heard people describe someone as having an "angelic voice" but hers is pretty much the DEFINITIVE example of that. ☦️ npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea Swedish meatballs is an incredibly underrated dish 🤔 #foodstr npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea It's not just Boomers, it's a lot of Gen X'ers too. If anything, I'd argue Gen X is even worse in some regards, being the generation that genuinely thinks it's flawless, that its childhood was perfect, and that every other generation is bad except itself. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea (X drama, but relevant outside of X) npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea What I hate the most about this line of thinking is that it wrecks what is otherwise an awesome piece of tech. NFTs, in theory, can be used for some really awesome things but because of the "buy a JPG" crowd, that's all people think when they hear the term. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea Oh ordlay, it is gay, oye, essings blay, ahhmenaaay. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea https://blossom.yakihonne.com/3809c4d5409bfa060cbbfa5576f306fcfe4189f297a9ad5d2277f2e1aa5b0537.webp npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea That's another completely fair use case, I actually do the same when watching a clip around other people if I don't have headphones. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea I really hate how Youtube defaults captions to be on now. For people who don't stay signed in unless I need to do something specific, that gets really annoying. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea One way or another, this pricing crisis was going to end. It was just a matter of when, not if. China building fabs to manufacture more is actually a positive thing because the existing RAM manufacturers are, for all intents and purposes, a cartel. The best thing to do to fight that cartel is to get more competition into the market, which is why China doing that would be a really good thing in the long run. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea I believe it! But it would be even more believable if the lines weren't so steady in their decline, because the cognition of society seemed to take a major dip around 2016 or so and plummeted in 2020 lol npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea I'm thoroughly convinced that the collective IQ of most of modern civilization is dangerously low. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea Did I miss something? What does this have to do with the conversation here? 😅 npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea I can certainly agree with your comment on the AUR. I love the concept but you really do have to be careful with it. As for Pacman, I can't bring myself to agree on that, I find it to be the most enjoyable package manager out there due to its speed and the fact that it takes less typing than apt and dnf. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea WORD5 #691 5/6 npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea Very kind of you, thank you! Since we're being civilized, what's the main reason you dislike Arch? npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea Nah man, Arch is fantastic and everything I love about Linux. But to each their own, of course 🤔 npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea Nice, I'm curious how that works! But the problem for me is the fact that SMS is inherently insecure unless you manually encrypt your messages with PGP. I try to use SMS as little as I can for that reason. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea I realize I never updated on this but this issue, as well as the other issues I've been having with Amethyst, seem to have gone away. Hopefully it stays that way because I never wanted to give up on Amethyst! npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea If @nprofile…6fpr can find a way to make linking to your PC better, I can see myself using it just as much as I use Signal. I prefer messaging on PC as I'm significantly faster with a physical keyboard, but the current linking system is a pain to deal with. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea I thought the same for a while but opted to look into being a passport bro. Too much risk dealing with western women and the way marriage legalities work in the west, at least for my taste. Meanwhile, Asia still has plenty of great traditional women and a legal system not inherently rigged against men. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea Indeed, we have a crisis of simps and whores. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea Cool tech but I also do like some things to be 100% offline, no connections. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea Bookmarking 👀 npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea I personally prefer my music library to be offline, especially when using my phone. I don't have unlimited data on my plan so it's nice being able to always access my music. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea What did I miss? 🤨 npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea I have a free trial of Amazon Music right now and I'm reminded of why I hate streaming. The app sucks, the audio quality is sub-par, why would I ever pay for a subscription to it? 🤦♂️ npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea The dealbreaker for me is, indeed, the surveillance and social credit system. Not saying we all have it right but a colleague of mine in the security and privacy research space used to live there and had an incident where he was imprisoned without cause because the government claimed he was under suspicion of being a spy. No evidence, they just didn't like that he is Christian and uses security tech. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea Wait... that last line... did I just get Satrolled? npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea I might have to accelerate my plans to buy a bit. Can't afford to buy much but it might not be a bad time to start if my own research supports this. 🤔 npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea There's a time for direct action and there's a time to utilize the systems of representative democracy. Flock cameras being destroyed causes no loss of life or property except the property of a corporation defying the Constitution. The same cannot be even remotely said about taking direct action to solve the many issues we have in our government. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea I limit all of my devices to charge up to 80% unless I know I'll be going somewhere that I'll need a longer charge. For example, on road trips, I disable the charge limit because I'll need more battery to work with. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea WORD5 #688 4/6 npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea They do, but only in the sense that I believe God specifically creates each of us with traits to perfectly match someone whose traits perfectly match you. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea That's a new one, I haven't heard of someone moving to China for the affordability 🤔 What about the freedom aspect? npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea This is generally my first instinctual response to anything like statements about the modern dating scene in the west. Being a passport bro really is the future for traditional men looking to escape the madness over here. It's also not as expensive as many would think (at least in the case of the Philippines). npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea Anyone having major issues with Quad9 these past two days? I'm having DNS issues and I can't determine whether it's an upstream Quad9 issue, a problem with my Pi-hole server, or if it's a local configuration error. 🤔 #asknostr #networking #dns #quad9 npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea Adding sunflower seeds to you day as a snack is genuinely amazing. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea I just narrowly avoided a disaster. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea WORD5 #683 6/6 npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea As much as I hate to say it, I may have to stop using Amethyst for the time being. I love it but between insane lag, permissions issues when using it with Amber, and certain features sometimes are finicky. It's possible that it's just an issue with my phone (I need a new one but can't afford it), but yeah, it's just not fun dealing with the issues on my end. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea My guess is that it's already happening to some degree and nobody has been caught doing it yet. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea So far, you haven't offended me. I've had moments where I was a bit baffled by your posts, such as the goth mommy stuff or your seemingly contradictory support of both Christianity and New Age spirituality posts, but nothing has offended me 😂 npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea Absolutely outstanding! npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea WORD5 #682 6/6 npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea I definitely agree with this. When I'm hungry and overwhelmed with something, that's my real weak spot. I tend to be able to stay relatively calm until those two conditions are met, and then I lose a lot of my composure. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea I say I couldn't go back to Windows on my main system. In my home lab, I have only one system that runs it and that's for a two-fold purpose: to keep up to speed with Windows (so I don't fall behind professionally) and because the system it runs on is an ARM-based laptop which limits my choices on distros, though that is slowly getting better. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea #asknostr I mentioned a few days ago that I've been having several issues with #Amethyst and now, it seems I'm having issues with zapping people. I added my NWC string to the wallets menu, but I keep getting an error saying I couldn't resolve the address I'm trying to zap to. Any ideas on how to fix this? npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea Could be. At the end if the day, I just ruled it to be unnecessary for my own use case. Not sure if I'll push for my kids to speak that way when I have them, I guess it depends on where I'm raising them. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea Something I really appreciate about Nostr vs. other social media experiences is that I actually feel like I get some level of engagement here. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea Story-wise, not as good as Fallen Order and Survivor, no. But it's a really solid Star Wars adventure nonetheless. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea I was raised to do so, but I really didn't continue. Main reason why is because I found a lot of people, at least in my area, tended to view me as pretentious (or, they at least implied such). Sadly, that's a lot more common in the South. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea I tend to as well, might have to try them at some point! npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea I mean, all of these are pretty good examples of human stupidity, but who's the dummy who thought putting thermal paste ON THE PINS was a good idea?? 🤦♂️ npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea Never heard of anyone doing that, I could see it being enjoyable as long as the texture isn't so tough. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea Haha well, the florets are pretty enjoyable if you cook them, I just hate how any sort of mix (especially freezer mixes) tends to include more stems than the florets. The stems are the part that's like chomping on soggy wood 😂 npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea How do people enjoy eating broccoli in any other form than cooked florets (and ONLY the florets)? I certainly don't enjoy biting into my food and getting a tiny plank of wood grinding between my teeth. 🤷♂️ npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea I know that some people prefer a high-end agentic approach with their AI, and that's understandable, but for me? npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea Eh, I disagree for a couple reasons: ads today are made as obnoxious as possible, linked to inherently anti-privacy tracking, and regularly promoting products that are exploitative. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea A little, yes, but I'm not interested in making it my entire lifestyle and personality. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea Yes, because it is. I really couldn't care less. It doesn't impact me and I don't have any interest in getting involved in petty bickering over something that has nothing to do with me. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea You're right, but again, gold is something that humanity has considered valuable for literally its entire history, and that's unlikely to change. Meanwhile, the only people who truly value Bitcoin are people who see its benefits, which certainly doesn't include the masses. Because of that, tragically, I don't think we'll likely ever see universal adoption in the way humanity adopted gold. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea We don't, but we do have estimates and we ultimately know it cannot be infinite, by nature of the fact that we live on a single planet. I just mean that gold has had universal value since the dawn of mankind, and it always will. Like I said, definitely not as practical or portable as Bitcoin but it doesn't hurt to diversify your investments in proven ways like that. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea I disagree. It's not as practical or portable as Bitcoin, and its supply isn't as limited (especially once we start mining asteroids and go further into space) but it's still a hard asset with universal value that has been used as money for all of human existence. npub14zwvjvf0ztfp8hlwzv2hqtpjhaugwrgecrvlwrggq2vj8kdd36tscjmw42 aptea I'm approaching 31 and I've never had a drop, nor do I particularly intend to. There are so many ways it causes problems, and very few ways it actually helps a person. I don't need to numb the pain of life, I face it and either try to find a solution or I suffer well (according to the way of the Lord).
