Old Fart Friends (5.10d). Definitely the best hard 10 at Farley. Starts left of the low roof. Blunt arete, slab/bulge, roof and face all in one.
It’s really on you once you get your feet established on the last “ledge” along the slab. Cheeky crux at the last bolt. #PTCOL #climbing #crimpstr

Wow for example has the blizzard sponsored servers which you pay subscription for.
There are numerous community built private servers offering different versions of the game, some original & some modded, which offer a different experience and are typically free.
These servers are gaining in popularity as blizzard is incompetent in actually delivering a game/community that people like and want to play on.
Blizzard is definitely working with twitch/YouTube to remove all content from said private servers. Content creators can’t stream these private servers on centralized streaming platforms without risk of ban.
Here’s an example of a private server.

Is zap.stream the closest thing to twitch for nostr? Who is hosting the stream and would they have the same pressures to censor copyright content?
Being a giganerd, private servers in video games have peaked my interests; especially when the community devs are more competent at creating a genuine fun experience than the original game company. The fiat effect.
Streaming private servers to twitch is the fastest way to a ban/copyright strike. Does zap.stream actually fix this?

I don’t want to leave Connecticut, but it’s a deep blue state; the heart of fiat with Yale and the entire metro coastline to NYC.
Turning the state and politics around is like moving a tanker. We’re getting squeezed dry and the political sphere is accelerating to full degeneracy of American ideals.

There’s so much opportunity to make meaningful change in El Salavador on both the Civil Engineering front and business ideas.
The bureaucracy of working with the Feds and local DOT is getting acceleratingly worse. Inflation is squeezing the honest workers and businesses dry. Infrastructure is going to take a huge hit. We didn’t get to rebuild post WW2 and we fucked up bad. Not only do we need to maintain our infrastructure, but we must redesign and rebuild from all of our mistakes made during the central planning of our highways and infrastructure.

Yeah I would imagine it’s nice. It just sucks that New Haven is the best we can do for a bolted crag because of the ethics.
It’s slowly changing but we won’t have fully developed sport walls like neighboring states. Only the few hush walls that remain off mountain project.

2024-05-27 18:03:57

Sometimes I hate the climbing ethics in CT. The best bolted crag I know of in the state is in the north end of New Haven. One of the few places where bolts aren’t chopped.
The crag is in the hood; 5 minute walk from some housing projects.
Despite that, there some killer lines, hard n slabby with some sweet roofs. Few spacey bolts can make for some good whips.

The whole 180° spin and speed of the eth etf take being political bait for Biden admin is such a normie take to believe imo.
Look at $ethbtc and $btc.d the trend is so clear and obvious. We know who the insiders are in crypto and the eth presale. Imo they are just using their power politically and pulling the levers to defend the eth price and thus the peg to bitcoin. Eth is the proxy for all of crypto.
Crypto is levered long via a short btc position. Ethbtc must have gotten close to the pain point for many institutions that are too big to fail.

Climbing feels like to me the least aggressive form of martial arts; except it’s not player v player, it’s player v environment.
Incredible amounts of discipline and proof of work. The entire environment is a problem to solve. The efficiency of your energy moving through the problem/routes (space).
The state of flow and focus when you are locked in to a climb is the ultimate zen. Enduring the pain of the crux is an indescribable reward.

Most people don’t know that bitcoin is an energy market that defines the exchange rate of bitcoin <==> watts every block.
Mining is the decentralized clearing house for the exchange.
This means we also can define blockspace in watts per mb; and we can define time in watts. It’s all energy and the bid for block space (and time) is a free market.
A decentralized gigapool is arguably the end game in this context.
Decentralized block templates is step 1 of many.
Is it actually possible to decentralize the coinbase + fee payout? This seems to be the beast, and why we must have multiple pools. Security of the network trumps efficiency, always.
Multiple pools from a systems perspective is inefficient and lowers the amount of energy that can be exchanged for bitcoin per block. Why is it efficient to have an entire group of hash outside of your pool invalid? You don’t pay them for their hash when you find a block, they don’t pay you.
Why?
Could you ever imagine a world where the machine who produces the valid nonce creates the block template but ALL hash is paid for their work? It’s opt-in; sure those who are greedy can solo mine, but why would they want to?
Those who can define their local energy (watts) in global energy (bitcoin) at the highest frequency will be able to make the best decisions. We’re very far away from this.
Have miners actually thought about the end game? I feel like the debates about bitcoin/mining/energy/infrastructure are still very primitive.
We’re engineering an energy system for global cooperation, not competition.
Singularity.

Energy is the currency of the universe; it’s the thing we all call money regardless if you believe me. It’s illogical to believe energy would not be our currency as well.
The dollar is simply the medium to view the energy. Losing the peg to energy makes the medium completely unreliable to use.
Yes we live in a dollarized world, but we only veer further away from the truth. It’s a slow degradation of society as the energy dissipates.
At the end of the day, it’s your choice to use bad information to make life decisions if you so choose.
Without energy, there is no order.

2024-04-12 17:20:18

We are doing a complete disservice to ourselves by pricing bitcoin in dollars. We need to be thinking about bitcoin in joules. I don’t care that the dollar is the global unit of account; it’s the completely wrong unit to price bitcoin; full stop.
In 1971, the dollar fully de-pegged from energy. The further we progress through time, the more meaningless price in dollars becomes, as we have de-pegged from reality and truth itself. The dollar is becoming increasingly less and less capable of accurately pricing anything in the future. We only drift further from the truth by doing so.
We need to remove dollars from our conscious if we want to bring this network into a new paradigm.
Bitcoin is the global energy market. Every block is the clearing house; cyberspace.
Hashes/joules <==> bitcoin.
This is a two way function, every block.
It becomes increasingly obvious that we need a decentralized mining pool when you begin to look at this as a market.
The next logical stepping stone in the process is Block Template creation being delegated to the miner who provided the valid nonce. This ensures the preference of the individual is included the pricing mechanism; centralized pools cannot do this.
Centralized pools with decentralized block template is the next phase. Coinbase/fee delegation is the next monster.
What’s even more interesting is that every pool acts as a walled off economy, where any hash that exists outside of the pool is invalid/not valued in the pricing of bitcoin for that block. This is illogical as we all value the same bitcoin, thus the same hash, thus the same joules. It’s actually quite inefficient from a systems standpoint.
The centralized nature of pools is the next big hurdle. We can only develop this market to a specific point due to the security concerns around a centralized coinbase delegation. We can only become so efficient if we are constrained by centralized pools
In my opinion, the vast majority are thinking about bitcoin in the wrong way.
Cooperation; not competition.
We’re going from zero to one; singularity.

Adoption is really just the amount of current bitcoin vs 21 Million in which conversion from the $$ to btc is solely a one-way function (ie energy permanently flowing into a closed system).
Bitcoin is going out of circulation vs the dollar. Finite math doesn’t care. Up.
#Bitcoin spot scarcity is being realized. Spot price doesn’t care, someone trying to buy & cannot without pushing price way higher. Physical constraint, price go up.
No one can provide liquidity to go on chain with this scarcity and these prices. Futures can’t hold it down unless physically settling.
The spot price is the ONLY price that matters when people demand full custody of their bitcoin. How do you defend the price of something when you don’t physically own enough of it and must pay with it?

Shitcoiners are going to be in shambles when $BNB goes the way of FTX.
Have fun with your shitcoins on coinbase, your last beacon of hope.
The end game is coming.

I thought this was part of the benefits by using paid relays. Are you getting spam on paid only?
High cost of entry at scale makes blocking meaningful.
On a free relay, you simply cannot block faster than the bots can spin up a new account.

10 year yields look ready to explode higher.
bitcoin is coiled + bbands indicate something huge is coming.
S&P looks droopy.
A headline is coming, feels like things are about to get wild. Direction is unknown and can go either way….my bias is up #Bitcoin
