Last Notes npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk If anything close to this exists, please refer me! npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk I'm leaning towards nay, but I need to do much more learning about lightning. It would be my dream for opposing strong technical minds to debate this in some long-form medium. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Pants are ok if you are going commando though. Also, don't trust, verify? what? npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk That guy has a habit of arrogant high-horsing in general. Smells of ego. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk We die from moment to moment, and are reborn from moment to moment. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk It is unfair to say people asking questions are arrogant or spoiled. In fact, I think they are humble and brave enough to keep the community healthy by asking the hard questions. Corruption via VC funding and influence centralization is definitely a threat avenue to the space. When I see more prominent people close to the VC money try to shutdown the conversation, it makes things smell worse. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Say no to Xitter. It makes you a dumbass. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Xitter has this affect on people. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk @npub16as…g2tf's emojito + nostrudel = DREAM TEAM https://emojito.meme/a/naddr1qqr9yetpvd68xqgkwaehxw309an8yetwwvhxummnw3erztnrdaksygxhvp6xggju32mppk5ef9duwry28fz6q0u2y2547phukk7yy8jh8gpsgqqqw48q447449 npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Some thoughts form the last few days of chaos in this world: 1. Ossification is on a gradient. Nuance matters. 2. Saylor is great but the war at hand dictates that his reputation be sacrificed. He has already done his part imo. 3. Lightning is not at a dead-end, even with lots of VC money flowing around it corrupting at the fringes. 4. I need to learn so much more about BTC/LN from a technical standpoint. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Where can I read about the specifics of SBF's "days off" clauses? I hadn't seen tha before. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Twitteresque engagement farming has spilled over into the nostrati. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Nuance > tribaiism. Both are good and bad. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Peter Theil: "One “philosophy of science” argument that I like is that science is supposed to fight a two-front war against excessive dogmatism and excessive scepticism. And so excessive dogmatism is like, say, the decayed Aristotelianism of the medieval church, and that was what science was in some ways fighting in the 17th and 18th centuries. And then excessive scepticism, if I can’t trust my senses and I don’t know whether I’m sitting in front of you, if you’re too sceptical, you also can’t do science. This two-front war is in tension, it’s actually hard to get that balance. The early moderns were more anti-dogmatism than anti-scepticism. If we fast forward to 2023, there are all kinds of things where the scientific establishment would caution us against being too sceptical. We’re not supposed to be vaccine sceptics, we’re not supposed to be climate science sceptics. It’s fighting scepticism in all its forms. I’d be hard-pressed to come up with a single instance where a scientist would say, “this is an area where science is too dogmatic today in 2023”. Surely that tells us that somehow science has degenerated into something that’s more dogmatic than the medieval church. If you’re just fighting scepticism it tells you you’re dogmatic. The totalitarian “science” of the early 20th century was like this. It pretended to be anti-dogmatism, anti-supernatural, anti-that sort of stuff. But in reality, the anti-scepticism dominated." https://www.newstatesman.com/ideas/2024/01/john-gray-peter-thiel-discussion-post-modern-world npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Nuance over tribalism, my friends. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk No disagreements with that. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk I really appreciate what you do. However, let's be real - if there's an approval process then there by definition are strings attached. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Build your own small reasons to be more hopeful. Over time they accumulate and build off of eachother. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk 100% the path bitcoiners need to be on. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk This is something I would love to see @odell openly discuss and address. it would give me much more confidence in him. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk So basically, there will be a "corporate SOV" bitcoin and then there will be fork wars over this and any grassroots attempts at improving the decentralization and privacy properties of bitcoin that threaten the WEF. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk This some of the most soul-touching, clarifying, and entrancing music I know of. I found it many years ago and often come back to it:. Please share it if it does the same for you.

Feeling super inspired this morning. WE are going to win. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Thanks for sharing. Very disappointing. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Agreed, I am paranoid of "free". npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Is it possible to login to primal with nsec bunker? npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk I've been pondering the potential value of a "non-bitcoin" client that comes prepackaged muting a large list of bitcoin keywords. This way when someone complains loudly, we can just link them to that client. Another idea would be to have a big "NO BITCOIN" toggle available on a client somewhere that does the same thing.... npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk I was wondering why btc was pumping! npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk This is the winner. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk I want to hear more thoughts from folks who think that lightning can succeed in widespread adoption WITHOUT ecash. If you believe this, what are the people missing about the future of lightning? Some hidden Uncle Jim incentives or something else? npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk I have like only 1 real friend left in real life (outside of my wife), due to going through a massive spiritual awakening during my later twenties. I have tried since then to make new friends but I basically cannot find folks that I share much in common with and am beginning to realize that bitcoiners are my only real hope. There is a city not too far from here but again I am thinking I might still be the only "serious" bitcoiner within an hour. I have kind of half orange-pilled my one friend as he does own "some" bitcoin, but he definitely doesn't have the crazy that I do. Anyways, my wife and I are thinking about moving to a beachtown on the Gulf of Mexico. Does anyone know of any decent "bitcoin" communities on the gulf anywhere? Maybe I can bootstrap some semblance of a social life that way 🙏 npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Has anyone started any form of a nostr-based P2P exchange? I thought I remember some folks talking about ideas around this....? npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Because of your funny memes! I wish there were more funny accounts here. Also, people here are very insightful and positive and constructive. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk While you are in it, it feels like it will never end. It will pass. They say it usually starts to pass around 8 weeks. For us it went from 100 to almost 0 during weeks 9 and 10. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk I have always had a favorable view of tokenization of assets. If done correctly, couldn't it remove trusted middlemen from the proof of ownership and transacting of assets like stocks or even real estate? What am I missing? npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk LIVE BIG. LIVE FREE. SET OTHERS FREE. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Well, I hope you feel better. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Nonsense. Well I guess I'll have to throw away all of my thoughts on the matter. 😉 npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Democracy facilitates divine growth in society from the roots. Sometimes it becomes arrogant and needs to be humbled, but it will be. Nothing exists in perfection, but perfect is the enemy of good. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Or some flavor of democratic republic etc npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk These things are true but not in the absolute. Democracy is still the best form of government. The peasants have never had a system that tilted the balance of power so favorably. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Majestic dawn y'all! npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Functional false flag attacks popping up on both side of the fence. Things are escalating. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk 29 days to the halvening. The halvening has become some sort of spiritual thing to me. I can't yet explain it, but I'm going to reflect on it. It's like reaching a new milestone in my life or something. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Congrats! Keep stackin babies! Babies > bitcoin npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk GM GM GM GM GM GM GM!!!! npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk zapparino here guy! npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk This is just the one of many more "bans" by governments. They will happen more and more over the next several years. Nostr is just getting started but will end up growing huge due to it's censorship-resistance tech. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Happy to have ya here. 5 kids!

Yes, I'm sure the injection was from "investors". npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Keep coming with the hard facts please. I am in the middle of ramping up on the lay of the land and whats what in the lightning ecosystem. Your opinion is contrary to most people that I have been listening to up until recently, and I value it. The stakes are too high to let VC money corrupt the btc/ln network's future potential, if that indeed is what is happening. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Doesn't he own the majority of Microstrategy? If so, he can delegate whoever he wants (including himself) to own the keys to Microstrategy's corn, no? npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk The "devil's comet" will reach it's brightest point in our sky right about the same time as the halvening. Coincidence? I think not. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Sometimes people post really stupid stuff on my feed but I love them anyways because I can feel the freedom in their souls. ⛅ npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Are you guys just playing it safe with the potential that graphene has unknown bugs in it's app sandboxing and network shutoff security? Maybe I'm being too trusting.... 😕 npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk howdy 😃 npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Man, that thing is the size of a horse npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Solid bet, I agree. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk So the narrative for this bull market has pretty clearly materialized: ETFs unlocking huge swaths of demand FASB accounting standardization paving way for huge swaths of demand Recent inflation spikes throughout the world ATH in distrust in Govts around the world What does the next epoch/bull market look like? Give me your crystal ball projections. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Idiocracy. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk 🤣 Amazing! npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk 🥜 Where do I go find it again? npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk I'm not sure how easily coopted SIDC in Belgium is but they are showing confirmation of solar flare activity but then say no expected impact on Earth expected... "Solar flaring activity over the past 24 hours was at high levels, with two X-class flares and one M-class flare. The largest flare was a X1.8-flare, with peak time 23:07 UTC on February 21 and the second largest flare was a X1.7-flare, with peak time 06:32 UTC on February 22. Both flares were associated with NOAA AR 3590 (beta-gamma-delta). A M1.6-flare, with peak time 00:14 UTC on February 22 was produced by a yet unnumbered active region behind the east-limb on the southern hemisphere of the Sun. There are currently 2 numbered active regions on the visible disk. NOAA AR 3590 (beta-gamma-delta) is the largest and most magnetically complex region. NOAA AR 3586 (alfa) has been stable and inactive. The solar flaring activity is likely to be at moderate levels over the coming days with C-class flares expected and M-class flares possible and a low chance for an X-class flare. A south-east partial halo coronal mass ejection (CME) was observed in LASCO/C2 data around 16:12 UTC on February 21th. The eruption was related to an activity behind the east limb. No impact on Earth is expected. A second westward partial halo CME was detected in the LASCO/C2 data at 18:36 UTC on February 21th. The CME is associated with a filament eruption seen in SDO/AIA 304 & 193 at 17:37 on February 21th in the north-west quadrant of visible solar disk. The CME has an estimated plane-of-sky speed of around 450 km/s although the bulk of the ejection will miss Earth, a glancing blow arrival is possible on February 25th. A third south-east CME was detected in LASCO/C2 data around 00:24 UTC on February 22th, associated with the M1.6-flare peaking at 00:14 UTC on February 22. Two negative polarity coronal holes have started to cross the central meridian. One in the northern half of the Sun at high latitude and the other in the Southern half at low latitude. Over the past 24 hours the greater than 10 MeV GOES proton flux was at nominal levels and is expected to remain so over the next days. Some enhancements are possible in the case of an eruptive activity from NOAA AR 3590. The greater than 2 MeV GOES 16 electron flux was below the 1000 pfu threshold and is expected to remain so in the upcoming days. The 24h electron fluence was at nominal level and is expected to remain so in the next days." https://www.sidc.be/ npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Yup, no connection here. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk So dual-funded lightning channels look pretty amazing...? "v1 lightning channels: one side funds a transaction to make an open, funds are all on their side v2 lightning channels (dual-funded): both sides collaborate to make a transaction, funds can be in any amount on either side. it’s basically a mini coinjoin/payjoin onchain for every lightning channel that uses it you can multifundchannels in CLN; if every peer uses v2 opens that will let you build basically your own decentralized coinjoin that results in channel opens 😎 no coordinator, all in one tx add in liquidity ads and you can get multiple inbound channel capacity, again all in one tx with the payment for that liquidity being just more available inbound. it’s a huge game changer on lightning’s onchain footprint splicing builds on this and will let you do even more complicated liquidity movements in one transaction. move liquidity between channels, fund a new channel from an existing one, etc. All in one transaction" https://stacker.news/items/423884/r/jonk?commentId=425041 npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk So the Bank Term Funding Program is expiring in March again I hear.

I hope you work your anger out somehow. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Don't trust, verify. This is tough advice because our time and energy are limited. Being able to discern where to put your time an energy is the crux of the matter. I admit that I don't know much at all about lightning in spite of being a software developer by trade and a bitcoiner for quite some time. Oddly enough as a software dev, I am not a bottom-up thinker, more of a top-down thinker that looks for disconnects in reputable views and opinions and then tries to prioritize my time from there on what I perceive to be the most fruitful, low-hanging fruit. Recently, I found an account on stacker.news that went hard against everything I have been trained to believe about the lightning ecosystem. This perplexed me deeply as he made a decent amount of sense talking about all of the VC money acting as a corrupting influence on lightning development. This guy was an infrastructure engineer and had very technical grounding in his views. I also sensed, he could possibly be too strong of a personality and maybe got rejected from VC money and is jaded as a result, etc. So now, amidst my massively overflowing plate of things I want to get done, I feel a strong need to deep dive into all of the lightning tech to build out a cohesive mental working view of the various tech. My gut tells me that the lightning network is going to be the next space for "shitcoinery". Big money, big ideas, but poor implementations getting over-marketed, etc. There is a very visceral "builders culture" on nostr, and I think it's good but needs to be balanced and refined by embracing deep critique of solutions. Not just on a superficial low level code level, but on a high level purpose and architecture level. The projects that do this will attract my attention, usage, and potentially even my development time. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk You are probably right. It may be a fault of mine that I get too invested in strangers on the internet. 😕 npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Something about kids getting hurt makes this all spiritual narcissism? Please bridge this gap for me. Maybe we all could learn. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Maybe projection? I'm a fully committed married man, but I can appreciate good, strong feminine energy in the bitcoin world and just in the world in general. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk why not grace us with your insights. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Where can I see the pre-markets with coin buyers lined up? npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Just eat yer green yo! npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk I assume you are just trolling, but in the small chance you are not then I assume you are the kind of person that reads an article like this and accepts it at face value: https://www.reuters.com/article/factcheck-excess-mortality/fact-check-no-evidence-that-people-aged-25-44-experienced-an-84-increase-in-excess-mortality-due-to-covid-vaccine-rollout-idUSL2N2VS1BI/ npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Is this the Dune.com data or a different source? npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Every bitcoiner has to periodically do their duty! npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk I want to do something like this someday. Do you make sure the batteries are not draining and charging when the miner is running, so the batteries don't degrade unnecessarily? npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk It might not be, was just trying to genuinely look for best data. Nonetheless, the dune data just track real-time flows. It's up to the observer to interpret. It did indeed look like I was correct on that it was just them moving their holdings to different addresses as the totals look good again. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Bitwise is likely just moving their bitcoin. Either that or they got hacked for all of their corn lol npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk 1) Massive drop in supply on exchanges this cycle acted as a halvening on the price before the actual halvening 2) Actual halvening coming along with continued drop in supply on exchanges 3) Demand spigot cranked open via ETFs and FASB accounting clarity 4) ? Just kidding, you know what 4 is. MASSIVE BULLRUN. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Good morning, its a beautiful day indeed. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk Sorry, I should have been more clear. It errored out and returned a broken image. I'm guessing it had something to do with the link I gave it. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk I hope @npub13l3…8xc2 posts here more often. He was one of my favorite follows on the site that shall not be named. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk The stable diffusion image to image robbed me of 70 sats lol I did prompt "smiling" and this image link: https://primal.b-cdn.net/media-cache?s=o&a=1&u=https%3A%2F%2Fnostr.build%2Fi%2Fnostr.build_921103a346a15dd528b2f2e56db0d30bac05dfd6604d7a2873d474b718621a58.png maybe it just needs to validate the image before payment. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk My copy of that book does not have it. PDF searched it and all. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk I would love if this was a a verifiable quote of his, but I'm failing to find that. npub1t9w2364vukyeed4t0cj5907fwgfkxahja27qj2rlrpt7hrck0efsktr5d8 Jonk How to trend on Primal: 1) Find meme that's trending already. 2) Post that same meme. 😂🤦♂️ https://image.nostr.build/0bae6aa1f1fe75142e11a09cab85fe93bf00831525849014effd39e8aa05ed96.jpg
