Excuse my spellings.
Definitely was the database. When I paid the first ticket on the website my vehicle was listed in big bold letters as REGESITETED and NOT INSPECTED.
Officer never saw the sticker or lack of. Admitted during one of the stops.
Also only after a mile or two tail and running my plates. Fucking bullshit.
That's all I get pulled over for. 😂🤷🤦
I already draw too much attention.

After four and a half years I finally bent the knee and got my vehicle inspected. Only took three traffic stops specifically for the sticker before I figured this is not the way to draw attention.

When a newb tells you to check out a shitcoin, ask them if they make it easy to run a full node (do they encourage it or hide the fact that nodes even matter), how hard is it to run a full node, & how long does it take to download & verify the whole blockchain history.
This can be a good foot in the door way to point them toward what it takes to set up a bitcoin node, because they probably know nothing about the process at all. When they see what real decentralization looks like with direct participation in the bitcoin network they will either close their mind & ignore it (which means there was no helping them anyway) or they will wake up & ask why their shitcoin doesn't want real decentralized participation.
Obviously there are exceptions, but the worst scams don't make network participation easy & obvious. They focus on hype & empty promises.

Omg, thank you! I should have searched. Idk why there weren't any front & center where I buy grease or anywhere else I have looked.
It's a joint where grease is supposed to be pushed out so that the old dirty stuff is replaced. But maybe the fitting is bad.
Is there some trick to making grease guns usable? I had a shitty one, thought maybe spending more might help, now I have a battery powered one (fewer hand cramps at least) & still more grease goes around the fittings than in, & getting the hose to detatch is still nearly impossible.
Why the fuck isn't there just some sort of release collar?! Are there replacement hoses that have some sort of manual release?

Not at all. It's the #1 freest state in the country, according to the Cato Institute. The actions of a few don't represent everybody. There are plenty of bitcoiners in the FSP.
I have no issue with competing currencies. The market will decide on what's best, and right now Bitcoin is miles ahead. If some people in NH want to voluntarily use other payment methods then go for it. They'll respect your right to do the same.
I've said this a million times in the past and I'll say it again - I'd much rather be around ancap shitcoiners than statist bitcoiners.

How about we all publish these documents on decentralized Nostr
say for example I am running a cashu mint from whatever location, I have a contract with my ISP providing me internet access so my cashu mint can be online/discoverable. this ISP has given me an IP address I can be reached at. if I think decide I will not advertise my IP, and only be discoverable through the mints npub, wouldn't all traffic still be going to and from the ISP anyways? meaning they can just have a look at the packets, see what's going on(roughly) and block access?
doesn't it eventually boil down to packets being tramsitted over IP anyway though? I'm so confused 😂

Fedimints networked by Lightning are literally a path to being your own bank for your friends & family members so that they aren't stuck with untrusted custodians. Arks may solve the problem in a more trustless way. Maybe channel factories or LN pools & hedghog channels will give Lightning better scaling capabilities too.
the claimed reasoning is that these are high risk assets and you might be impulse buying so they make you think twice about it. i forgot to say before this cooldown period I had to answer a survey and say that bitcoin is a high risk asset and that I won't be investing more than 10% of my networth into it 🤣🤣

People just need to start shooting the pedos & rapists.
Looks kinda like a new Honda IMO
The dollar has been dominant even with countries violently trying to impose their own currency monopolies, the internet is built on a common protocol stack, english is the dominant language to an ever growing degree, all life is built from RNA & DNA, I think nature supports what I am saying quite well.
Money tends toward one because it is a language & an economic protocol. Saying we need monetary competition is kinda like saying we need competition for rules of the road. We need competition to decide if driving on the right or left is better, we need competition to decide if red should mean stop or go. Consensus around the rules of the road are what allow people to get where they need to go. Money is what enables value comparison & competition. If we had endless competition about internet protocols then nothing would work. The monetary competition is going to eventually come to an end & I think Bitcoin is going to win it because development took network security & robustness more seriously.
This whole kneel for the anthem campaign was truly a brilliant propaganda move to undermine the growing libertarian threat to statist idolatry.
In one move they got the left to actually support a more subservient position toward the flag (while claiming it's a form of disrespect) & they galvanized the right in their desire to stand & pray with their hand over their heart.
It's disgusting, but it completely steals the wind from the sails of the "be this guy" meme with the crowd doing the German salute.

If you thought that you wouldn't advocate things that turn the entire base network into a centralized intermediary.
Real problem solving does take time. "Make 'em bigger" doesn't actually solve anything.
BTC is not popular there, and no one I saw accepted lightning payments. Lots of bcash, monero, and the NH Goldback.
Silver dimes worked, and that's what I used. They've always been my favorite way to buy things at PF.

I'd assume those full of shit might as well.
A couple decades without income tax still sounds like a win.
With Keet & so many other tools available it seems like enforcement is so unrealistic that even if they got it passed it wouldn't matter. Might make people actually start using more private options just because they were told they can't.
We have proof from ETH that increasing the blocksize kills decentralization completely.
We also have proof from BCH (+ Bitcoin Dark, BSV, etc) that using hard forks introduces fundamental vulnerabilities that fuck up the network & lead to more forks & division.
You just refuse to see what is right in front of you because you want your bags to pump & either don't want to admit you were wrong or you're a newb that was "educated" by people who don't want to admit they were wrong.
It's the whole killing babies thing that makes it a problem, you can have your uterus removed if you want.
We will eventually have a trustless way to share UTXOs and Liquid or Fedimints or Arks (or whatever comes next to improve upon them) will be the way most people interact. Lightning is also likely to be more for settlement between institutions. More horizontal scaling may come in the form of cross input signature aggregation or something like that.
Increasing the blocksize doesn't solve the problem. It's only a linear improvement in capacity & it is a compounding increase in the cost of node operation. You cannot sacrifice network infrastructure to gain functionality.
Yes, and that's still what it is when I send LN or Ark or Fedimint or Liquid transactions.
You cannot scale a braodcast network to everyone in the world. Suggesting otherwise just makes you not a serious person.

I don't want everyone to run a node, I want most to be able to run a node so that the ratio of users to node runners improves rather than gets worse.
Foundation vs an extra option that isn't required
Comments like this make it clear none of you are arguing in good faith. You aren't even trying to understand.
Bitcoin is a global court system for proving ownership of wealth. Going to court may cost $1000+ but a court that cannot be cheated & provides a receipt with millions of dollars worth of protection almost immediately & billions pretty quickly is not for doing things where you would naturally just throw the receipt away.
You are not thinking about these things properly & you do not seem to understand the scope of the problem.
There will be as many more transactions in bitcoin as there are individual internet requests today vs phone calls in the 80s. So making blocks bigger CANNOT even begin to solve the problem. It's like standing in front of the ocean & I have a cup & you have a bucket & you are talking about how much more of the ocean yours holds. It makes no difference.
Bitcoin is a broadcast network. The overwhelming majority of payments MUST be done on a unicast layer. This is not up for debate. It's just basic reality. Whether you understand it or not is your problem.
No one is saying we should rely on trusted 3rd parties
It's a provably honest court system for ownership of wealth. It's not for everyday transactions. The base layer offers millions of dollars worth of security with just a couple of confirmations. Nothing you do where you would throw away the receipt should ever be done onchain.
Pi hardware already isn't great for running a node. My node was $1500. How much do you think it should cost?
#Bitcoin is literally a tank for fighting a global war against mass murdering pedophile slave masters & we have people trying to attach a million cappuccino machines to the damn thing.
Leave the cappuccino machines in places where cappuccino belongs & let the tank protect those places.

The real problem with big blockers & shitcoiners is that they don't understand enough about money & economics to have any awareness of the actual problem that #bitcoin was created to solve.
“The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks”
This isn't about fucking coffee payments. It's about ending monetary slavery. We will eventually get the coffee payments too, but not if we let a bunch of wildly ignorant people fuck up base layer security.
Competitive ecash pools where no one needs to hold any money for any length of time & no one ever needs to put all of their money, are a great additional options. Why is it that you can't tell the difference between a weak foundation & some optional thing that makes reasonable tradeoffs?
Not understanding that preventing monetary debasement is the whole point actually makes you literally retarded. Your ignorance seems to be so complete that you don't even know that you don't know enough to have an opinion.
Go read Meltdown by Tom Woods or The Creature From Jekyll Island or Layered Money or The Bitcoin Standard or The Fiat Standard or anything about Austrian Economics & money.

The interesting thing about that chart is that ETH has completely centralized even though they only process about double the number of transactions as base layer BTC. And in terms of the global txn capacity issue they haven't solved anything. That chart actually looks to me like proof that Bitcoiners are right.
Except that I make 100x the number of txns on Lightning as I do onchain (as do most regular users & major businesses now) & that doesn't show on the chart you posted. Hedgehog channels are being added which will improve LN performance in all conditions. Eventually most transactions will be happening in fediments or arks that are networked via LN so onchain fee conditions won't matter for common use.
Bitcoins price right now be all hawk.. no tuah
So you wouldn't run a node to audit the Fed right now?
The problem is that retards like you don't understand that bitcoin is trying to solve a $200trillion global money supply problem, not a fucking coffee txn problem. The coffee txns may be solved with other layers, but making coffee transactions better isn't going to set the world free if govts can still enslave everyone by printing trillions of dollars.
The higher value problem gets priority if we want to make the world better in the biggest way.
Transactions rarely cost more than a few dollars. We need better ways to trustlessly share UTXOs so that they can cost $1000+ because they probably will at some point.
The ~4mb limit has nothing to do with the cost of a harddrive.
It already costs a couple hundred dollars to buy the hardware needed to run a node. Storage & computational demands have grown & will continue to do so.
Lopp has written about past efforts to sync an ETH node from zero, which took weeks when everything went right & it repeatedly failed. Do you understand how fragile the network becomes if downloading & verifying everything takes that long & any significant number of nodes gets wiped out?
If only Google & Visa can run nodes then we have just recreated the Fed banks. They can change the rules & the supply however they see fit.
The cost of running a node gets exponentially larger as the number of nodes shrinks. Everyone who uses bitcoin has to connect to a node, what happens when the number of leechers massively outweighs the number of seeders? What does that do to the cost of seeding info?
The reason Monero & BCH work is because no one uses them. The more people do, the more centralized they become, just like we saw with ETH.
Bitcoin fairly regularly has blocks larger than 2mb. And the amount of transactions made in bitcoin is orders of magnitude larger than any shitcoin, most transactions just take place on Lightning & other layers.
Nonsense. If it's easy to run a node & doing so allows people to ensure that the rules of our monetary court system cannot be changed, then even if it costs $1000+ dollars to go to court people will run nodes.
If your vUTXOs or L2 txns depend on the validity of base layer UTXOs then it still makes sense to run a node which monitors the entire Bitcoin stack relevant to your money.
If you could run software that would audit the Fed or financial system today, you wouldn't?

@npub1pzu…7vtu might know more
It's not easy or elegant.
It's a hard fork that most of us aren't willing to support because we understand the long term costs. If you make it considerably more costly to run a node, say 10x, then you get significantly fewer nodes, more centralization, less resistance to future hostile changes, & you create a compounding risk of future network fragility if some significant portion of nodes get eliminated & have to resync from zero in order to secure the network. And for what?! 10x txn capacity does nothing in terms of the problem of putting everyone's coffee purchases on chain.
This debate has been had 1000 times & was already settled during the blocksize war. It's ridiculous how often these basic things have to be repeated.
Because every blockchain with meaningful adoption that has tried to do more txns on the base layer has still ended up with massive txn costs & because of their choices about base layer capacity they became centralized.
And the only reason it hasn't happened to bitcoin is that it is much harder to change. So how else are you going to add capacity if not in layers?
Even Hal suggested bitcoin banks would be necessary. But hopefully we will have something like shared UTXOs backing L2 blockchains which are networked via Lightning, so that everyone gets their own virtual UTXO & doesn't have to depend on trusting people too much.
Ukraine just turned down another peace deal even though they basically have no more male population to enslave into this fight. The US has stolen money Russia held in dollars & is funding the continuation of the slaughter with the interest on Russia's money. President of Serbia says ww3 is months away. Wouldn't be surprised if the psychos in power want the war to prevent the election.
There will be keys at different layers with different risk/trust profiles. There is really no other way to solve the problem.
Sounds like your work isn't done yet.
Show greater interest in your family holding Bitcoin, and less about what billionaires are doing.
Mutiny allows you to use fedimints.
It doesn't matter if a small amount of spending comes with some custodial risk if you gain privacy in the process.
But clearly the increasing optionality on bitcoin is never going to pump your bags so you are going to be opposed to all of it. Good luck with that.
I guess you aren't aware of https://app.mutinywallet.com/
You don't need permission to swap out via Lightning.
And using Monero requires either losing wealth or some sort of exchange cost, so if neither monero nor cashu are good places to store money, why not use the cheaper swap to make private payments? Cashu being custodial isn't any more risky than trying to exchnage btc for xmr. And like I said, better L2/L3 tech is coming.
The amount of ignorance around lightning is staggering.
I'm at PorcFest in the White Mountains of NH. My 6th time here, but first time in 10 years. Great to be back to the place where I fed everyone with bacon weave sandwiches 4 years in a row, my love of Bitcoin blossomed, and where I first met my wife IRL. 🧡
For those who don't know, PorcFest is a week long festival run by the Free State Project. The FSP is an organization that wants to move like-minded, freedom oriented people to New Hampshire. It's been quite successful, as NH is typically the #1 freest state in the US, according to The Cato Institute.
That said, there is a lot of Bitcoin FUD here.
It's amazing how great of a job technically illiterate shitcoiners have done with spreading false information.
I support competing currencies. People should have the freedom to decide, and plenty of vendors here are open to options. Lots of monero, gold, silver, bcash, dash, etc. I've enjoyed using silver dimes and quarters to pay for things. Great to get rid of them! 😂
The "Roger FUD" has made it very difficult for folks who aren't as technically savvy. I say that as someone who isn't as technical, but took a lot of time to try to understand all sides during the blocksize war.
People made the move for more freedom in their lifetimes. I hope more folks challenge the negative things they've heard about BTC. Folks who store their wealth in silver or bcash should question why their purchasing power continues to decline. Why it can't even keep up with inflation.
More purchasing power = more time = freedom ✌️
I'm still extremy bullish on NH. Plenty of hardcore bitcoiners here, but the FUD is present.

Liquid has confidential transactions. Cashu is Chaumian ecash, both are networked via lightning so that with the right wallet(s) you can move seamlessly between the two.
The tools are definitely not as mature and seamless as I would like but they are there, and more is coming. Altcoiners don't want to see reality because their bags depend on it.
Even in a world where hundreds of govts force people to use national forms of money, everything has tended toward one. Govt force isn't going to be there to bolster altcoins as the world wakes up from this financial dark age we have been trapped in.

Achieving 80-90% will make those other things very bad investments by comparison. But anyone who has an 80-90% allocation to bitcoin should do well.
Yes, all of those things have value, but because one of them is perfectly scarce I think all monetary premium will accumulate there.
Yes, that is the Keynesian bullshit that I meantioned.
The idea that people are going to trade with one money & save in another money is just a hangover from all of the Keynesian bullshit people have been fed. The scaling & privacy tools on Bitcoin are going to drain the value out of Monero & everything else.

You cannot force anyone to fund a cause you like.
You cannot delegate a power that you do not have.
You DO have the moral right to respond to initiations of force with force. So you can delegate some defense of yourself & loved ones to a 3rd party, so long as they are voluntarily funded.
Voluntarily funded security & other services are part of a free society.
Force funded organizations are not services. They do not "serve" anyone, they quite literally force you to serve them. This is a form of tyranny, no matter how they try to dress it up & pretend otherwise. Force funded organizations are criminal organizations.
The flag is the symbol of the govt religion that makes all govt criminality socially acceptable. Let go of your false idols.
I don't really have the legal freedom to stop funding the never ending banker's wars, so my opinion of the flag flying over all of said wars is meaningless, which was the goal. The superficial appearance of freedom without the ability to act on one's beliefs without breaking the law. But fuck their laws too.
I feel that. I had fomo earlier after listening to @npub1qny…95gx and @npub1guh…6hjy talk about Bitaxe and the Avalon Nano on RHR. Going to start with the Bitaxe and hopefully work my way up to the larger ones 🤙

It's funny how shitcoiners like to attack the tech that has allowed Bitcoin to do ~100x what any other coin has done, & of course you have to ignore Ark & attack federated mints too, because the existence of these things are basically the death knell for Monero. But the one thing you are all sure not to do is ever acknowledge that the only reason Monero works at all is because almost no one uses it. You have to pretend that Monero's scaling problems aren't the same (or actually worse) in order to pump your beloved dogshit to the "non technically inclined" in the hope of marginally improving the almost complete lack of a network effect.

You cannot put the same savings in both Bitcoin & Monero. They are mutually exclusive networks. You can put the same savings into Bitcoin & have it on a privacy layer built on top of Bitcoin. This, plus Monero's higher inflation rate & the larger scaling challenges, is why it doesn't make much sense to hold Monero at all.
It's not about religious devotion. It's about the unforgiving nature of monetary network effects.
Good luck with that... I think economic reality is going to hurt you.
Unfortunately many of my convos lately make me think we really are beyond the time for orange pilling. All the people who were going to learn from education alone have already found bitcoin. Most of the rest are too fucking stupid to be talked into anything. I used to think libertarians were just generally more curious & intelligent people, I was definitely wrong about that. A large portion of them are completely retarded & seem to be the sort who will self sabotage no matter how much things go their way.

Ah, THOSE markets... I think markets of that nature are all going to look at lot different in the coming years. I think they'll all eventually be running on newer, more decentralized protocols & using ecash or some other privacy layer on top of bitcoin.
Slaves gonna be slaves then I guess 🤷♂
Everyone wants to make money. When all the value is flowing into Bitcoin making bitcoiners richer every year, & life is getting progressively harder every year for people who continue to cling to govt money, & the best products are only sold for Bitcoin because the smartest & most productive people won't touch a CBDC, you think most people still won't make a change?
If Venezuela has banned mining, but even the cops who seize miners are using them to mine Bitcoin, I think that's a decent illustration of how things are likely to go elsewhere. I think certain forces are just too strong for people to resist forever.
The market for loans will look dramatically different. Loaning/renting equipment will probably make more sense than loaning money. Everyone will have to earn before they consume & be efficient about their use of resources.
Money will actually do its job & incentivize efficient resource allocation.
Who thinks that life is going to be the same after bitcoin? Bitcoin is going to change everything whether people realize it or not.
None of the most powerful govts in the world can exist in anything like their current forms without stealing massive amounts of wealth via money printing. Bitcoin directly undermines theft via money printing.

I had some friends who didn't know learn the hard way on the first day & kinda ruin their week. Once you know what to look for it's generally not an issue.
Probably won't be an issue, but it's worth keeping in mind that all flat "grassy" areas (yards, areas around sidewalks, etc) come with a very real risk of stepping on a small cactus with razor sharp thorns that will go all the way through just about any shoe or sandle. Loose sand is generally safe, grassy yards can be dangerous af. Some houses have brought in sod & work to keep the cactus out, but that's not really the norm.
Depends on how much time you want to spend seeing sights vs hanging on the beach. Coquina beach is one of my favorite spots & it changes, but there is often a nice sandbar there. Sometimes you can see the remnants of an old ship depending on how the sand has shifted.
If you get an overcast day Jockey's Ridge is really awesome. I drive up a few times a year just to walk around there. But it's not so great on hot days in the middle of the summer, would be worth an early morning trip even if you don't get an overcast day.
The Wright Brothers Memorial is interesting.
There are lighthouses, if they are open to go up inside the view is worth the climb.
Ocracoke is always worth a visit, but would be a bit of a drive plus a ferry ride, so could be tough to make work in a day from where you'll be 🤔 don't know how long the passenger ferry takes.
Captin Frank's Hotdogs has been there forever & has pictures from when they were the only thing on the beach & of former presidents that visited. They have fantastic steamed shrimp for dinner (after like 6pm I think) & usually some decent live music or something later.
There are also some really cool putt putt places & other random stuff.
You going with family or friends or just you?
Looks like glue residue from some sort of door edge guard/trim. I am personally not a fan of that crap. I'd see if I could find something that would remove the residue without harming the paint... wd40 maybe
If you have never been then there are lots of things you need to see... 🤔
What area are you staying in?
I might be able to get out there & say hey.
Bitcoin sidechains make way more sense than adding exchange & price volatility risk to make a private transaction. It doesn't really make sense to use Monero at all.
Monetary network effects are very unforgiving & I think this will beasically be a "winner takes all" sort of competition.
Unquestionable supply auditablity is more important than perfect privacy.
Stealth addresses & sidechains networked via lightning & other minor improvements will continue to compound bitcoin's privacy potential a little bit at a time. Something like CISA that improves efficiency in terms of on chain footprint while also improving privacy would be ideal.
I actually do have a backlog of those, listened to several on fountain back in the day. Think it's time to go back catalogue while I'm cutting metals at work. 🫡🫂

Highly intelligent response, thank you.
You are just the mirror image of Hamas. They are evil because they kill people who have nothing to do with the govt that they claim to oppose, you are evil because you want death for innocent people who have nothing to do with Hamas.
There are Christians & other innocent people in Palestine. So when you support indiscriminate bombings because you have mentally demonized all of the people in one place you are supporting violence & immorality that is also killing many children. Your irrationality makes you the same sort of evil as the monsters you claim to hate.

If fiat remains within the US rather than being exported then domestic inflation gets worse.
You don't boost local production by raising taxes to cut off the supply of cheap tools & capital equipment. I just bought a Chinese excavator for half the price of anything I can get here. I buy most of my tools from Harbor Freight. Making my tools and certain supplies more expensive just increases my cost of doing any sort of business.
You want to boost domestic production you remove govt licensing restrictions & cut taxes. You don't increase taxes on the flow of inexpensive stuff.

Seeing more likely scammer type accounts / activity across Nostr. This is an indicator of success of some sorts.
Will be fascinating to see how they fare over time. My hope is that the inherent costs of setting them up / paying for meaningful interaction with real users is higher than the friction for users / relays etc to simply ignore them. Something that Twitter could have enacted but failed (deliberately?) to do so.
The chart I’d love to see is the combination of these two items - ie the dollar value of Bitcoin left on exchanges.
By way of example, this is presumably higher now than in Feb due to the run up in dollar price.
The FT had 15 articles linked to the Bitcoin tag throughout the whole of May. In June.. none.

SHIT IS SO MUCH QUICKER ITS BEAUTIFUL
Doesn't have to be either/or. Money can have other advantages while ultimately existing to solve the problem of trust, which is fundamentally a moral problem.
And I would argue that while money is more efficient than barter, by far, it is not more efficient than credit. Yet, credit reintroduces the need for trust of people who are ultimately not worthy of it. Even when we try to organize the way credit is used in order to make the issuers of credit more trustworthy, we find that the temptation to abuse the privilege is too strong, and they sooner or later, usually sooner, violate that trust.
Sound money also has the added benefit of putting a natural limitation on the amount of evil a government can afford to perpetrate. When you have a money printer, you can extract far more value from your citizens without their consent in order to fund endless wars and line your own pockets. Not so when there is no mechanism to arbitrarily inflate the money supply.
Can confirm this even works for a colorblind 🫡😂
The double coincidence of wants problem can be solved one of two ways:
1. Trusting that the other person will "pay you back" a favor of roughly equivalent value in the future.
2. Money
Because you cannot trust people to do 1, due to immorality and corruption, we use 2 instead.
It has EVERYTHING to do with evil and depravity.

That's an interesting use case... I wonder if it would be possible for a client like Amethyst to check your local relay for any notes that are only located there and flagged as "public" in some way, or not flagged as "private", and automatically broadcast them the next time you open the client and are online, rather than having to do it manually.

I'm seeing some people (not on Nostr) share that BI hit piece on fiatjaf. I don't really want to read that article, but does anyone have anything they can point to that addresses points made in the article? Even from what little I can tell it mentions, it sounds incredibly outlandish and reeks of sensationalist journalism.
Israel funds Hamas because they need the people of Gaza to remain poor & terrorized, because without that they will never be able to justify taking the land. It's basically the same playbook the US has used to bomb & overthrow nearly every anti-dollar regime in the Middle East only Israel wants to use their puppet terrorists to eliminate everyone so they can take the land.

Yes, and both travel in waves (tho different frequences) because they are traveling through an elecromagnetic ocean between planets. Things reflect light & radio waves because they displace them. Like a boat in the water. The atmosphere is not dense enough to reflect everything, but it does dampen the transmission.

Setting aside the possibility that the O2 is just to calm people down in a bad situation that they can't do much about... The thing they tell you on a plane about putting your O2 mask on first so that you can help others, is actually how all of life works.
In general, you cannot sacrifice yourself to do good for others, you have to take care of yourself & live a good life in order to be able to help others.
You can't sacrifice your relationship to prioritize caring for the kids, you have to work & maintain your relationship to properly care for kids.
You can't sacrifice your income or your health in a "pandemic" to protect the sick & vulnerable. How can you help anyone if you can't even help yourself?
People preach sacrifice as a means to destroy & enslave others.

So Trump supported & promoted a bunch if deepstate people because if he didn't they would have impeached him (like they did) & locked us all down under the next admin, like they did... Are you suggesting that Trump while not in office somehow got us out of the lockdowns early?!
He was literally Mr. "Space Force" & you just posted him chasing a spot in the Trump admin the other day. Now he is marveling at all the stolen wealth on display at a Royal castle. What do you think someone who wants a govt position of power is, if not a govt goon?
But yes, my position is in fact mostly just how I feel (which is not enough to convict anyone), but I have been around enough shady fucking people to know when to trust my feelings about someone even if that's all I've got.
Yeah, that's not the rhetoric he started with. I've just been around long enough to remember how he started.
I listened to a bunch of his stuff early on & generally disliked the choice of words that tried to make a purely defensive tool for securing property rights sound like a weapon of war.
I also didn't care much for Breedlove (though I generally agreed with most of what he had to say) who did the whole bitclout thing & now appears to be a complete dirtbag of a husband & father.
There is something that just seems very fucked up about Lowry, he seems to be very focused on his own status & power. He sets off all of my "evil person" alarm bells. He comes off as fake.
Trump is also very focused on his own status & power, but there is something more stupid & honest about Trump. I don't like Trump, but he doesn't really bother me. What does bother me is the cult of people who irrationally worship Trump & try to twist everything he does into some sort of genius move. That's fucking insane, the man appointed Fauci, tries to frame the poison jabs as a win, and seems to have no principles.
All of the above give me similar vibes as McAfee always did. I never understood why some people seemed so thirsty to hear certain things that they would embrace such an obvious piece of shit. All give me a similar vibe, but McAfee was more clearly a piece of shit though.

What would it look like if there was a compressible electro-magnetic ether that exerted force on things which displace it, like planets & people & atmosphere.
And how do radio waves travel through space if there isn't some sort of ether?
Not particularly, he's a govt goon. But if he is having a positive impact on people that's good 👍 can't argue with that.

Well, getting poop on everything would be a problem because poop is loaded with potentially harmful stuff. Hygiene is important because I think there are certain levels of viral or bacterial load that can become more dangerous. But if you sterilize a container & put sterilized or freshly cooked materials in it it keeps very well. If you put biodegradable things in a container that hasn't been sterilized then things will grow pretty quickly. And we did bacterial tests of different surfaces in highschool. All of which seems to suggest that there are low levels of potentially harmful things everywhere. Which makes sense, there is also visible dust & pollen & bugs everywhere (you generally have to wipe off a seat that's outside every day, sometimes more than once in the same day), why would it be any different on a microscopic level? They just don't matter most of the time because our gut (and the rest of our system) is good at either putting them to work in the digestion process and/or keep them out of the body.

Having some awareness of Keet & Pear stack development, the state of open source Ai tools, as well as Nostr & Bitcoin all provide many reasons for hope. I'm not on Twitter anymore, but the 3d printed gun stuff there was always very interesting & entertaining. Keeping up with general open source 3d printer developments on youtube is pretty great too.
Guns Germs & Steal is a decent read. Reading about & studying health stuff. Spending a lot of time browsing health groups & forums around dietary advice & other things. Paying attention to gardening & permaculture stuff. The same patterns are everywhere. The names for "diseases" people get are mostly just bullshit that someone made up. There are a handful of things that happen when people get sick. There are a handful of things that happen when plants get sick. The root causes have more to do with some sort of damage or deficiency that makes the infection possible.
For example, it seems pretty clear that Polio was the result of lead arsenic pesticide poisoning which permeated the gut lining & damaged lots of body tissue near the intestines, the most important tissue being the spinal cord. Damage to the spinal cord in the gut region makes them unable to walk. When something passes through gut tissue (creates leaky gut conditions) it can shuttle in all sorts of pathogens that are almost always present & would otherwise be harmless. So the problem isn't the pathogen it's the substance that granted the pathogen access to parts of you where they can do harm. But blaming the pathogen allows pesticide companies to escape liability & pharama corps to sell a new treatment.
Oh jfc, they have named something "American Miss" instead of "Miss America"...
Fuck all of these people.
The symptoms we get when sick are rarely characteristic of any one sort of infection. Our bodily systems respond in a similar & rather general fashion to all sorts of things.
And we do adapt & coevolve with diseases. That's why it's dangerous to make contact with remote tribes. People of european descent all have ancestors who lived in close quarters with their livestock for many centuries. We now carry around all sorts of things that would have been dangerous to people at some time in the past.
The people who are celebrating her for being fat have reduced her to nothing. This whole thing is to make themselves feel special for being the judges who "see through to the person" in an effort to virtue signal harder than the state that just awarded the guy who thinks he is a girl. And you are playing the same stupid game. You don't know anything about this person, except that she obviously doesn't take care of herself at all, & you are trying to pretend that there is something beautiful about it.
It's like people who prefer Obama to Trump because Trump said mean things while they ignore that Obama bombed more countries than any president in history. Which is worse, offending people or killing people?
What you don't seem to get is that the people celebrating this fat girl are killers. In the Milgram test they are the ones who push the botton every time. Social status & acceptance matter more to them than any person & they are demonstrating it as plainly as they possibly could.
This stupid "beauty contest" & its results are actually a pretty great illustration of the philisophical corruption that is wrecking the western world & I do think the altruistic bullshit preached by people who consider themselves "good Christians" has played a significant role in moving the US & others toward collapse.
How hurtful & unchristian of you...
Evolution is definitely not random mutation, it's a sophisticated epigenetic dance of adaptation & sexual selection.
The world around us is the body of God. To study it & learn how it works is to get closer to God.
We are made *IN* his image. It's delusion & ignorance that separate us from reality.
And what if Baptism actually means to immerse yourself in the studying of Jesus & philosophy & all of creation? What if the rituals & symbols we have created for things now have very little to do with the things themselves...?
Every individual still has to choose to follow, & I personally think making sense of the trail Jesus left us is not as straight forward as most would like to believe. People have a way of twisting stories to fit bad ideas.
Robinhood is a good example. There is a dramatic difference between the man himself & most of the surviving stories.
The picture is not the problem.

I guess that's good, but didn't an actual man win one of these too? Lizzo is real, they have been putting women like this on magazine covers, this well within the realm of believable at this point.
Yes, I was making light of a truly disgusting situation. If you don't learn to laugh at clown world you can end up in a very dark place.
I don't think beauty pageants are often populated by people of particularly high confidence. And if they were they wouldn't all be lying to a 300lb woman to make themselves feel better.
What she has is metabolic dysfuction & a bunch of people telling her it's great. And if she also thinks it's great then where does that lead?
Being "nice" in the short term is easier on you, but it contributes to the destruction of the people you are lying to. It is the most cowardly people who tell the most white lies. If she was standing right in front of me I would tell her she is overwheight & that it's not beautiful at all. And that the emptiest sort of win anyone could ever experience is a "win" they secretly know they didn't earn. I would tell her that she is surrounded by horrible people who would clearly prefer to humiliate her than to help her. And I would offer dietary advice if she wanted it.
If you are more bothered by my words than by what is going on in that picture, then idk what to tell you.
Are we looking at the same thing? She's like 300lbs & she joined a beauty pageant. Her delusions & the people helping her maintain them by telling her she is beautiful are destroying her. Do you not care about people at all?
She clearly doesn't respect herself.
Altruism sacrifices earned rewards in favor of unearned rewards. You have to completely discard honesty, justice & merit for this fat jug of soybean oil to win a beauty pageant.

I recently had a large tree removed. It was quite close to my house. When they removed it, I'm glad that the tree professionals did NOT go straight for the root immediately. Had they chosen that method, the tree would have fallen on my or a neighbor's house.
They carefully dismantled the tree branch by branch, lowering each to the ground. Then, they cut the trunk into large discs, and finally, they ground the stump to the rotten roots.
It's a true story, and also an allegory.

Out of curiostity what would the amendment be that you want to see added?
Term limits were mentioned, but I actually think that would have the opposite of the desired effect & create even more of a tragedy of the commons sort of problem. People just getting in to take as much as possible before they're out. And even more power would just be handed over to the permanent unelected bureaucracy.
Getting people on board with bitcoin is in the individual's best interest & it naturally snowballs in our favor.
Working for some sort of constitutional change (as if the federal govt gives 2 shits about obeying the constitution anyway) will most likely just be a tremendous waste of time & energy & reources, to fight against all the natural govt incentives, for something that will be effectively undone or otherwise made meaningless by default in just a matter of months or years after it is achieved.
You can't fight criminals via the channels they set up for you to fight them.
I have been there for a long time, but I am also not completely sure how accurate it really is. I know all the arguments, and I haven't voted because I don't want any sort of responsibility for any of the shit these people do. But at the same time, if one tyrant wants to whip everyone 10 times a day & the other wants to just whip us 2 times a day, I don't see what harm there is in saying I'd prefer ro be whipped less while still working to undermine the whole thing.
It seems like the only real risk is in thinking that politics is some sort of answer to the problems & just waiting for someone to save us instead of working to save ourselves.
So what does that look like?
Idk, I think being on the recieving end of these rather constant social attacks makes us stronger & more aware of who we really are, while the rest become soft & actually completely lose who they are without the context & support of their social group. It's like an anti-fragility thing. I don't think playing the collectivist game really makes us stronger.
I think tools for better coordination are critically important (bitcoin, nostr, keet, etc) & the others mostly just trade genuine coordination for mindless following & group think. One is empowering & the other is disempowering. You can be destructive with mindless collectivism & that can appear powerful in a way, but it really isn't. Real power is productive.
I think there should be some distinction between being grateful or having appreciation for things we are given or for the people who came before us, & things like actual achievements that we might take pride in.
Words are messy tho.
But it's similar to when people say "we won" after they watch sports... All I can think is mf you didn't do or win anything.
When it becomes socially acceptable to take pride in things that you had nothing to do with, lots of really sad & ineffectual people pump themselves up with weak associations to stuff outside of themselves & then become tyrants... See the woke movement.
It's always good to enjoy life & appreciate all that is.

I do not know the story. But there are also cases where the best people can do is be so shitty that you don't want to be them.

There is no transitioning. There never will be. You cannot make a man into a fertile woman, you can not make a woman into a fertile man. You can only physically mutilate & chemically castrate people.

No reason to die over such nonsense, Trump. And then work to help people stop paying taxes no matter who wins.

Delusion is evil. Not seeing that your govt is corrupt & run by murderous pedophiles just like most others makes you delusional.
Your lack of ability to see what the US is doing doesn't make me a friend to Islamic tyrants.
A penis is still a penis. Cutting it off or calling it "too small" doesn't change the person's chromosomes. It's a silly line if reasoning. Biology IS binary. The infertile exceptions really only prove the rule.
You don't have to identify with shitty people to see that the US has been actively destroying functional countries while installing, bribing, & supporting the shittiest people on the planet (which you claim to hate) to keep oil trading for dollars.
Trying to lump people who believe in property rights & individual liberty together with religious tyrants just because you see both as a threat to your love for some flag & bullshit propaganda narrative is weak.
Birth defects don't really change the fact that biology is binary & that it is impossible to transition from one sex to another.
So yes, you are both delusional about the current state of our political system & about biological reality.
Denying the basics of biological reality is just the modern version of Orwell's 2+2=5. So the fact that you bought the biological propaganda & you also seem to have an inability to see the political reality for what it is, you appear to be a decent example of the desired effect.
Did you also get jabbed & boosted, & support the Ukraine war? Are you vegan or vegetarian & you think we're on the verge of an environmental mass extinction event which justifies govt doing "anything necessary" to save the world? How much of the propaganda have you swallowed?
Good luck with that, I think the better bet is to build or support people building bitcoin tools so that we can just out compete the dollar on a global scale. Convincing politicians at any level to do something good sounds like a losing battle to me.
That's why I have been saying we aren't REALLY at new ATHs yet & the "pre-halving ATH" that everyone was so excited about wasn't some sort of unusual success.

Someone makes a lot of money on this bullshit
PSA: If you were born with a penis, then however you feel is a way that a man can feel. If you were born with a vagina, then however you feel is a way that a woman can feel.
It's completely insane that with zero standard for comparing feelings across sexes or even between any two people, some will claim that they feel like something they aren't. Accept the things you cannot change. You can like whatever you want to like & live however you want to live, but you cannot change who & what you are. Trying to do so will only destroy your life.
The mental gymnastics people use to make Trump into some sort of 4d chess playing genius are completely retarded, but the mental gymnastics to pretend that he isn't being railroaded by a totally corrupt legal system are worse.
We live in a banana republic.
I fucking hate being in the position of defending Trump, I think he is a piece of shit clown...
But if you can't see that the accusations, using "novel legal theory" & efforts to stretch what might be a misdemeanor into something more serious, in an election year long after the supposed crimes even took place, you are delusional.
Every govt is & always has been a purely a criminal organization, but we are now reaching a stage where they no longer feel the need to even hide it.
It's not nihilism to have a low opinion of someone who supports the US funding a foreign genocide, while also basically being economically socialist, & caught up in the climate scam, & too stupid to understand the basic need for tools of defense. The fact that he has to promise what he won't do because he is opposed to guns is pretty good evidence that he is retarded.
Even with all the bad I was half interested at first, but the support for Israel's war crimes killed it.
I like Vivek, but the reality is that it makes no sense to place any hope on any politician. The political system is a waste of time. Bitcoin, P2P projects, self hosted Ai, 3d printing & home manufacturing, open source gun designs, & other open source hardware are far more important than any politician.
The first step to defeating any enemy is to stop funding them. The only way to really win is to give people the power to successfully engage in tax protests, whether its done loudly or quietly, that is the real measure of freedom.
Yeah you’re right!

Not really, the current one is obviously a pedophile, Obama started more wars without congressional approval than any other & even bombed a US citizen, Bush helped make 9/11 happen so that they could pass the patriot act & justify attacking a bunch of middle eastern countries where oil was no longer trading for dollars, Clinton was a brutal rapist & pedophile, Bush Sr helped execute Kennedy, so going after a political opponent for an accounting issue during an election year, way after the accounting "crime" itself is of any relevance is actually the bigger deal. The US has basically gone full banana republic.

RFK will fuck everyone over too. And he is mentally retarded when it comes to economics & guns & all sorts of critically important issues.
taxes on carbon = taxes on existence
Bitcoin telegram network...? wut?
I agree that we don't know for certain whether there is any sort of ethereal consciousness we can pray to or communicate with. But I think certainty about the existence of God depends on how you define "God."
I don't imagine myself to be anything, but I have spent a decent amount of time trying to sort out the mess that is Christianity & square it with my understanding of the world around me.
Guy & I became a bitcoiners because we figured out that most of the economic ideas we were taught were upside down, we changed the way we eat because we figured out that the dietary recommendations were upside down, it wasn't too difficult to figure out that environmental science is completely upside down too.
It looks to me like the only things that aren't completely backwards or upside down are physical engineering & blue collar sorts of education where everything is much "closer to the metal." If your engineering concepts are totally wrong then your structures fall down.
Would it really be that big of a surprise to find out that everything most Christians believe & most churches teach is completely backwards? Religion is the subject farthest from the metal. All sorts of bad philosophy can persist for a long time without destroying productivity. But there must be some good bones in there somewhere, some living root back to reality for it to all have survived. I think it would be pretty ridiculous to assume we are just the smartest people to ever live & that no one who came before us had any philosophical contribution worth considering. There is generally some nugget of truth in every philsophy, on which the rest of it is built, even if it's mostly trash.
I agree that the Bible is stupid if you read it like a 5 year old. But I also think reading an extremely complicated text full of idioms & methaphor that has been translated from multiple dead languages would be a stupid thing to do. Unpacking what's there is extremely difficult, but it's not impossible. Some things are easier than others, hopefully no one thinks Jesus literally recognized Nathanial by the shade of the tree he sat under, that would make no fucking sense, right? But you can recognize people who understand the world by the way they behave, the people around them, & the way they have set up their lives. In other words, the amount of shade their trees provide. Has a person built a nice life for themselves, or are they stupid, blindly doing what everyone else told them to do & struggling?
I think God is reality. I don't think "all knowledge" can possibly exist outside the system that is the source of all the changing conditions, so the system itself is God. The map is not the territory, only the territory is the territory. Evolution is how God creates life. If we want to be successful & effective in the world around us we have to be married to reality first. If we want to get close to God we have to work to better understand all that is. If we forsake reality in pursuit of delusions the punishment will be harsh. Gravity or chemistry or the laws of economics are all very unforgiving. Whether or not there is some sort of super consciousness attached to reality is kind of irrelevant. If I am completely honest with myself I do sort of act like there is, but I am not sure there is any way to know that with certainty. So think whatever you want to think about praying. There is plenty of evidence to show that meditation & focusing the mind on certain things can help to direct our own subconscious in useful ways.
So if I think God = reality why do I consider myself a Christian... A lot of Christians tell me I am not one of them, which is fine. If by their definitions I have to believe in some sort of magic to be a Christian, then I'm not. But the interesting thing to me is that if you remove all the magic from the story of Jesus, even if he was just someone who became a carpenter after being born into total poverty, to a woman who whored herself out behind her husband's back. He still grew to be someone who completely changed the world. Our calender is literally centered around him. Seems to me that view potentially makes the story more significant, not less.
But if I call myself a Christian then it must be the MOST significant story, right? Well, if you zoom way out & discard the things we can't really know, it looks to me like a story about a man who was tortured by govt & religious authorities for helping others live better lives because his success was a direct threat to people in power who wanted to be the final authority on all things, but they clearly didn't know how to help people the way Jesus did. What always happens when people in power are embarrassed & shown up by a nobody? And of course, the masses in their tendency to blindly go along with authority celebrated the torture of Jesus. But as the story of what had happened to Jesus spread it became obvious that an innocent man was killed for doing good. So the lesson is not to blindly support authority, & not to pursue status & power at the expense of truth, because doing so will destroy all that is good. And if you look at history, look at the last few years, & look around us right now, I can't imagine any message that is more important than that.
And I believe the message at the heart of the story is important enough that no matter how it gets twisted or misinterpreted it can always be resurrected when the need arises. The Bible actually makes it pretty clear that the majority will basically always misunderstand everything. I generally think the deification of Jesus is the result of kings not wanting their power threatened (yes but he was God, who are you?) And plebs also not wanting the responsibility of having to stand up to the king (yes but he was God, who am I?). And I think there is a natural sort of idealization that happens to stories over time, they become larger than life monuments of the things they represented.
Also potentially relevant: it has been said that we die twice, once when life leaves the body, & again the last time anyone says our name. In that sense Jesus lives. It probably was as if he was at every dinner table in the 40 days after his death. If people realized a supposedly just republic had tortured & killed an innocent man & many people had cheered the torture, how might that story spread? And wouldn't the lesson be an important one to remember?
You know he's my brother, right?
I'm really proud to have helped make this. Bernard Purdie kept time for EVERYONE, and he told us that was the most important part of his job. Just a lovely human.

What do you mean that nothing can be known for certain? Do you mean about God, or about anything at all?
Lol, what assumptions weren't made? He doesn't seem to want to understand anything I am saying. And he is clearly mad at anything he associates with religion, which is understandable, but not particularly good for anyone.
The lesson is that the divide between good & evil is in the pursuit of truth vs pursuit of status. Most people use stuff as a way to make themselves feel important, & because of that they lose sight of what is real & true.
Heaven & hell are conditions we create right here on earth.
The only path to peace is respect for individual property rights. An ethno-state that shows no respect for the property rights of anyone outside of a particular religion or heritage was always going to be destructive to peace.
Those who do not respect individual rights will ultimately kill God. That's the real lesson of the Bible that is lost on most modern Christians.
It's amazing how short people's memories are. I just had a shitcoiner tell me that "the maxi war has been lost." I guess one bear market is enough to erase the fact that Celcius & FTX just blew up in the last cycle (2021) & that ETH founders just killed the last vestiges of decentralization & ousted the miners so the shitcoin market is more centralized than ever. And Coinbase is now home to the majority of ETFs so one hack could potentially bring down that entire house of cards.
So my advice to just buy Bitcoin & hold your own keys is clearly just backwards & out of date...

Dr. Anthony Fauci confesses he 'made up' covid rules including 6 feet social distancing and masking kids
Recognizing that politics is generally just a scam to get the slaves to keep voting for new masters is not nihilism. Wasting money & time on politics is not ever going to change anything for the better.
Building technologies that free people from govt controls. Doing productive things to help your friends & neighbors while teaching them about govt corruption & freedom tech. Building a family & raising kids who are happy & productive & anti-authoritarian are the primary ways we improve the world. Politics is downstream from all of that. The political landscape will change once the people already have.

If we are not filled with joyful anticipation at the thought of being beckoned into the presence of God to worship him, then there is a terrible disconnect in our hearts. We must be wholly ungrateful creatures if we are not eager to express adoration toward our gracious God and redeemer.

Love that Dave Smith was able to debate Chris Cuomo. I think it went well, but I wish Dave & others would quit hedging. The jabs weren't good for anyone at any age. Those fucking things have only harmed people. The pfizer docs & demands to escape liability show that it was known the jabs were harmful before they were given. And in my personal experience ivermectin, both the horse paste & human pills work great for fighting/preventing covid & flu & anything else I have been exposed to in the last few years. Ivermectin is perfectly safe & effective, but they needed to pretend it wasn't in order to keep their emergency approval for the jabs so they paid for the research results they wanted.

I don't think the economically retarded guy who wants to keep funding a foreign ethno-state's genocide is clearly superior.
And I don't see what good having a 3rd party is going to do. One more bad choice isn't going to fix any of the incentives or make democracy any less retarded. It will just fool some part of the population who might otherwise wake up into thinking the system could still be made to work.
The girl I am currently talking to left a tyrannical country to be in this part of the world, so I don't have to explain the importance of guns, or free speech, or why "experts" & govt officials should be questioned. And in spite of having a phd in computer science she understands the differences between men & women, & she thinks liberals are basically just weak & cowardly people. It's really nice.

GBTC complicates a little as there was $20bn+ to begin with? Probably needs excluding (and assume GBTC outflows have flown in to others) if we want to see only new money but impressive none the less
That's a fair point. Would almost need to require anyone using a negative prompt like that to choose at least one additional limiting factor.
Idk how the LP nomination BS works, but from what I have been hearing it sounds like one of the other candidates gave his votes to Oliver in order to help him win. Alot of the libertarians involved in politics are also just liberteen pieces of shit.
And Rectenwald, despite getting more votes than either of the other two candidates individually, is apparently too much of a pothead to be a decent messenger anyway. The LP is just destined to always be a complete fucking joke. Which is just as well, a consistent application of libertarian principles is completely incompatible with politics.
What about negative prompts. Say I want a to see a feed of anyone I am not already following who is talking about holepunch, would that be a possibility?
Definitely a greater possibility with him than with anyone else, but I'm not holding my breath.
You think RFK isn't going to flip at the drop of a hat? Look at his support for Israel's ethnic cleansing.
I'm definitely not voting for the fucking mask wearing pedo "libertarian."
I don't give a shit what Trump has said, I decided this just now purely based on the insanely unjust treatment he is getting from the judicial system. Though, I guess the off chance that Ross might get a pardon is worth something. We can certainly all keep hating him if he doesn't.
They aren't trying to kick RFK out of the running, they are trying to kick Trump out. And maybe it's all just a ploy to get people to vote for him & to think they are getting some sort of freedom or justice... I don't believe that'll be what I'm getting from any of these retards, so I don't really see what difference it makes.
If they really hate him as much as they seem to then I think I'd like to see him win, if it's a scam then whatever... they haven't actually made me a Trump supporter. I still think he's a PoS orange clown.
Entirely plausible. But then they'd all have to be a lot more competent than I think they are for it to all be fake. It's also possible that they are just so corrupt that not having some sort of real dirt on someone scares the shit out of them.
A vote might not be worth anything, but it also doesn't cost me much & seems like it's worth the gamble.
I fucking hate the system. But I recently reregistered to vote for a close sheriff's election & I registered as a democrat because I thought it was funny. Would be even funnier to vote for Trump as a dem, my vote might even accidentally get counted.
What difference does it make?
Maybe, if so what difference does it make?
I really wasn't planning to vote, I haven't voted in any presidential election since Ron Paul because I just don't like any of the human garbage involved. But the banana republic like results of the clown trial has made up my mind. I'm voting for orange man. I don't think it's going to accomplish much one way or the other, but this whole mess is beyond ridiculous. I want the system to self destruct & it looks like they'll tear it all down to keep him from winning. Fuck it, I want to see the show.
Yeah... start with the assumption that bombing people is both good & unavoidable, & therefore a guiltless act. Then imply that not helping to kill people more efficiently equates to moral culpability for the lack of efficiency. So not stealing more from American tax payers to supply better bombs to a foreign power that is bombing & killing innocent people is bad.
It's a fucking spectacular level of moral corruption.

Always happy to be shown where I'm wrong. While nothing is perfect, I generally feel like I am playing life on easy & most people just don't want to know how to change the settings.
So this response is actually just you being sensitive about the fact that you're still fat isn't it?
Diet is 90% of the fix. Grains, sugar, carbs, & seed oils are the primary problems (eliminate them all). Steak is the healthiest, most nutrient dense, & satiating thing you can consume. Be strict & consistent with your diet & you won't have to work out hard to lose weight.
Dairy is also addictive, comes with some inflammation, & will slow weight loss, but whole milk yogurt can definitely be helpful when it comes to straightening out gut issues. Ivermectin can also help ( buy-pharma.md )
Cooking with cast iron is best, but a steak or eggs cooked on ceramic pan with "forever chemicals" will still get you healthier than eating bread & processed "health food" bars and other bullshit people do.
Oh sure, after nearly a decade of "fad dieting" I have decided that grains & sugar & seed oils were never the problem, I'm going back to all the aches & pains & the mood swings of chronic inflammation & addiction.

My comment to them - Looking at who you follow in terms of who they then follow - even if only starting following 5 accounts it’s a brutally simple way to discover further accounts.
The fact that likes don’t further broadcast does make a big difference from Twitter though and makes the whole like button pretty surplus to requirements.
Yes, there is an information problem & we are swimming in harmful products. But the problems are also generally hyper addictive & even when people are aware of what they should do they often don't.

Hey @npub10r8…t2p8 just to let you know the proton mail repo has moved to https://github.com/ProtonMail/android-mail with the old repo being archived.
On your phone, use Firefox or Kiwi Browser. Both have the ability to install the nos2x extension. The Firefox version is a fork, but works essentially the same as @nprofile…t7h9 's original.
No. I logged in using nos2x.
I am in banking for my day job, so maybe my view of ecash is tainted from viewing it through that lens. I see it the same as trading my cash to the bank in exchange for their "tokens": the balance in my account. There is a presumption that I am able to "peg out" back to cash at any time, but the reality is that I can only do this so long as the bank actually has the liquidity available on-hand at the time I request it.
Normally they do, so everything is gravy. Occasionally, though, people want far more cash back out of the system than a particular branch has on hand. Even more rarely, people realize that the bank has issued FAR more "tokens" than they have reserves to back them up, causing a bank-run.
My hesitation with ecash has been that the above would be far to easy (and far too tempting for some) to replicate on a "Bitcoin standard," though this is true with any form of custodial solution.
If you are saying that when we are swapping sats for nuts we aren't just swapping "real" sats for a representation of sats, but are actually selling our sats to purchase something entirely different, with no expectation to be able to sell back for the same amount of sats, then that is an entirely different animal, and a worse one, in my opinion. I wouldn't sell my sats to buy Ethereum, or DogeCoin, or any other "electronic currency" without any expectation that I could get the same amount of sats back from swapping back later on, so why would I ever buy ecash that has even less supply issuance guarantees than those shitcoins?

Wow. Nothing has changed this quarter-century.
Destroy the money & all of the above naturally follows.
Christians have been killing & abusing people for thousands of years too, but violence is parasitic & ultimately self destructive so dominance is temporary. The Middle East has been consciously & purposefully destabilized for many decades. Same way Israel has been funding Hamas to justify stealing from the Christians & other people in Palestine. If the worst people are in charge then idiots in the west can be convinced to support attacking everyone.
These are the people the US has been funding & arming & installing because they are the idiots that can be bribed with printed money... until they can't, and then they have to be replaced with another group of violent idiots.
Hey Ben - read this the other day and the article is great - amazing job with this.

Idk, I'd probably fire any employee who got the damn thing just for lack of ability to trust their intelligence, so I guess technically it should be okay for a company to do the same thing in reverse. Although, that does seem to open the door to all sorts of voluntary requests & conditions for employment that normies would throw a fit over. 🤔
And I think companies should be able to discriminate against customers the same way that customers are allowed to discriminate against companies, but somehow I bet he isn't consistent when it comes to companies refusing to do woke shit.

The failure of all of these movies with storylines that have been highjacked & mutilated in an effort to shove a female lead & woke nonsense down your throat is not a result of mysoginy, it's a rejection of misandry.
When the story & character development are the priority things tend to be good. When the gender or sexual preferences or ideology of the lead characters are the priority the movie tends to be complete trash.

He's not overstating this. Name another game that has built a full Lightning circular-economy with a commodities exchange denominated in sats. I'll wait.
#nevent1q…6lej
So gloriously nerdy! Love it!
I don't know any node-on-the-phone options that are using Core Lightning, so you will need a new full node, since your Umbrel is done-for.
My recommendation in that department would be Start9,
Then you need to get Bitcoin Core installed and start downloading the full blockchain. If your Umbrel was running on a Raspberry Pi, you will be pleasantly surprised at how fast the Start9 dowloads and validates the full blockchain.
Now you can install Core Lightning. You will need to transfer some sats to your node on-chain for setting up any channels you want, too.
As for who to open channels with: If you are only using this node to receive mining rewards from OCEAN, it makes the best sense to open a channel directly with them in the size you want to build up in your lightning balance before sending it off to cold storage.
Once the channel is set up, all the liquidity is on your side of the channel. That does you no good since you want to receive from OCEAN, so use boltz.exchange to either send the full amount to either your cold storage or back to your node's on-chain balance to set up more channels that you may want.
Now you are ready to create your offer invoice to give to OCEAN using either the Core Lightning UI or Ride the Lightning.
I think Saylor has a point in there, and I also think his intentions are sound, but he’s not necessarily framing the argument in the best possible way.
All else equal, lawyers lead to more laws and developers lead to more code. That doesn’t mean code will be automatically incorporated into hard or soft forks though.
He’s right to crave stability, and stability doesn’t mean outright ossification. He’s also right to ask whether segwit and taproot benefitted absolutely everyone in the ecosystem - they almost certainly didn’t.
However, a better way of terming it all would be for him to publicly ask whether resourcing for core devs needs to sit proportionate to money being made on a Bitcoin ETF, as I think started this whole item off. Into the long term it almost certainly doesn’t? What if Blackrock pledged the same with theirs?

Yeah agree - if you know local routes you then notice it’s far from reliable - guessing lots of nimbys lean on the algorithm to protect certain routes.
The simple listing of businesses on a reliable map just seems an absolute open goal right now. But would need a Wikipedia level army of contributors over time and a way of policing reliability in a decentralised way. Perhaps zaps / some form of skin in the game could be the method.

Neither Trump or Biden are our allies. Politicians are psychopathic liars that will say anything for votes, and voting is rigged.
Ross Ulbricht is an ally, and unless he escapes prison, his freedom relies on the actions of a president. That's his awful prison reality.
We owe a lot of Bitcoin's success to The Silk Road. "Fuck you money" isn't about buying coffee or food. It's about the transactions governments say you're not allowed to make.
Bitcoin is worthless without this characteristic.
Do what you can to help Ross, even if you know a particular action, like signing a petition or voting, is symbolic at best. Even if it's a longshot, a hail Mary, a near impossibility.

Both Google and Apple Maps are dreadful. Google especially far worse than it used to be for simply finding local businesses on a certain street for area, for example. Clearly it’s been commercialised to the utmost degree - I assume businesses need to pay for reach - and now essentially useless for a clear picture of what’s on a street.
Has anyone ever had a go at open sourcing map provision like this? Surely a powerful concept if the incentives are aligned right to prevent abuse and draw in collaboration from users.

Say what you want about the orange man but he’s got the best people around him telling him what to say
With very few exceptions, yes, I would be happy if my children had a childhood similar to my own.
Not sure, try to clear your app cache, changed devices here since the time as well, also amethyst vers, still works for me to load new sets. Loading it because there are too many to fit screen is another story though.
Wait... who are you talking about?
I can only speak for myself whenI was a child, and my experience with my own children.
It was effective and appropriate for me in the rare instances when it was implemented by my Mother. It was effective but inappropriate when implemented by my Father, who tended to do it in anger, which damaged my relatuonship with him until I was much older.
In my own household it has been effective and I believe appropriate when implemented. That has been rare and is now non-existent since my children are older. It was only ever used for willful defiance of previously established rules. I also have a fantastic relationship with my kids who are now in their teens.
The household is absolutely not a democracy or any kind of imagined ideal anarchy, particuarly when children are young. They must have strong authority at those ages for their own safety. As they get older, parents must use wisdom with each particular child to allow them more and more authority over themselves as they are ready for it. The parents' job is to raise children who are capable of being sovereign adults. Spanking is certainly not the only way, or even the primary way, to accomplish that, but it is a tool that can be applied properly, effectively, and sparingly.
No you misinterpreted the comment in order to avoid the point which makes you a dumbass.
I'm not your child, dumbass
You are implying a position of unquestionable authority by way of having kids. It's not a valid argument.
Hitting (no matter what you want to call it) is not discipline. Discipline is internal self regulation. You aren't teaching that, you are demonstrating your lack of it.
Except for the logical fallacies...? "There isn't enough time" (everything is an emergency, right?) & telling me I can't understand because I don't have kids.
You seem to be misinterpreting my point. You are justifying physical aggression with "there isn't enough time."
Lol, pointing out exactly what you have said is not a personal attack.
Kids will do all sorts of things when they are unhappy, it's not like they won't figure out how to use their arms, but it certainly helps if you aren't modeling aggressive behavior.
Neither can you apparently. You hit & make arguments from authority. Might have something to do with how you were raised.
https://cdn.satellite.earth/7d4a54a98c52872a4916492cc5a9e4ae93eab5e6b0972763145b5e22a35a460b.jpg
If you don't want them to hit people & you want them to deal with problems rationally & intelligently, you should model that behavior. Hitting them isn't making them better people, it's only repeating the cycle that made you someone who hits kids.
And sure, you can resort to the "you can't understand" argument like I haven't been a kid, like I haven't seen my friends & family have kids, like I haven't seen the results of their different appraoches, like I haven't studied the subject to prepare for kids, & like I just can't fathom how exhausting the whole process can be. But it's just an effort to escape having to actually deal with the issue.
Parents who regularly resort to similarly authoritarian trump cards "It's not your house" "Because I said so" "You're too young to understand" are teaching their kids to make arguments from authority rather than to actually have well thought out reasons for what they do.
Govt level cope. Everything is an emergency we don't have time to respect your rights.
It's the stupid path that produces dumber kids with brains that shut off in certain situations.
Would you "discipline" a retard or an elderly person who has lost their mind the same way? You imply that it's the only or the best way to communicate & make them understand because that are irrational...?
Would you train a bear or an elephant or a chimp by "spanking" it?
Be the change you want to see! Let’s make nostr the intolerant minority, not Twitter.

Tell yourself whatever you want... But it's exactly what I described. The frustrated kid walks around & tries to slap everyone on the legs. You aren't teaching internal self regulation or discipline. You are teaching either violence or mindless obedience, & both are great sources of evil in the world.
Oh yeh definitely, love them

Fixing the crumbling public infrastructure & marking it as having been fixed by #Bitcoin isn't any sort of legitimate property crime. It's not even private property that is being repaired & it is saving private vehicles from damage so there is really not even the possibility of a victim.
Anpub of culture, I see.
https://i.nostr.build/oMV5k.gif
Monkey see, monkey do.
Hitting kids only teaches them that to get what you want you have to be bigger & stronger & "in charge."
I have friends who hit their kids & they seem to just mentally block out the fact that when their son gets frustrated he walks around the room & hits everyone. They always act surprised. I have seen people literally hitting their kids saying " We. Dont. Hit." In time with the smacks.
It's so fucking obvious. And it has been clearly shown to lower IQ & reduce self control.
You are demonstrating that when you can't outsmart your kid you will resort to violence rather than distractions or instruction or anything else. So they will also resort to violence rather than learn to think.
If your logic worked then we should just hit old people when they get back to a stage when they don't understand either.
The worst is the people who had a fucked up childhood who want their kids to get the same treatment.
"My parents hit me & I turned out fine!"
If you want to hit your kids then not really...
Lol, definitely the "fake money for criminals"

Well, if you're sold on meat as a health food, but you're still having issues, it seems like trying no sugar (especially if you never have) might be worth a shot, but good luck either way.
Too much fruit & sugar can be an issue.

Whenever you realize that doesn't work, commit a month or two to fully breaking your sugar addiction. No sugar, no grains or grain products, no veg oils, basically just eggs & beef. Brain fog & sluggishness & other potentially even flu like withdrawal symptoms will be rough for a week or two. But after a couple of weeks you will wake up one day feeling more grounded & clear headed than you've ever felt in your entire life.
Someone telling you to eat more sugar to solve the problem is like a smoker saying you just need another cigarette to relieve your stress. It's only going to make the problem worse.
He said he wanted to cure brain fog, not cause it.
Red meat is the healthiest food a person can consume.

I don't think I could ever be with someone who put themselves on display that way. I have no problem with the fact that some do. I suspect that the choice to do so isn't usually the result of anything particularly healthy. But it doesn't do anyone any good to attack or condemn people for something that harms no one.
There seems to be all sorts of insecurity on both sides of the sexual divide. Religious people are like sexual anorexics or bulimics, & then there are sex workers who are basically the sexually "obese." Neither being good examples of a healthy approach to the subject.

Sex is supposed to be the physical representation &/or celebration of a deep mental & emotional bond that you have with another person. When the mental & emotional connection isn't there, the sex will often just leave you feeling empty.
It's kinda like throwing a birthday party with no birthday to celebrate.
Sometimes just examining the fact that you feel the need to ask a particular question can reveal something about what you may already know on a deeper level.
As someone who has done it & was always honest with them, it can be fun, but it won't bring any sort of real satisfaction, & it won't really make you feel less lonely. And either you hook up with people who are completely broken (not smart for all sorts of reasons) or you eventually have to hurt all of them because they will all want to be the one you choose & none of them will be. You can certainly learn things in the process, but the biggest lesson or realization for me was that I actually wanted to find someone with whom I could really connect & build a future with, & that it was stupid to waste so much time not actively looking for her.

The pattern is harder to see because the China mining ban prevented the normal blowoff top in 2021. Instead it was basically inverted.
This time around 2025 (like 2017 & 2021) should be the real bull market. Halving years (2016, 2020, & now 2024) are generally decent, but usually include a solid amount of down to sideways movement. Even if this year ends up being unusually good, there is still room for a lot of chop between now & the upward moves that are likely to come later in the year.

Sorry for late reply. Yes, this is a serious question. The evolution of one species into the other has never been witnessed because as scientists say it takes thousands if not millions of years. So if it takes so long there should be some form of the between species.

I have spent a decent amount of time on the subject & I think a lot of the common interpretations are completely upside down for a number of reasons. I have talked about a lot of it on nostr, and I have halfway been working on a book. Idk if it will ever actually be a book, but maybe.
This really should be obvious, but I just had to explain it to someone so here it goes again:
People who make money by finding ways to better serve others are not greedy.
People who want something for nothing are greedy.
In other words, the most greedy & truly corrupt people are those who are only happy when they see others engage in self sacrificial acts.
If you can't be happy when everyone benefits, then there is something wrong with you.
IMO the gospels teach that the divide between good & evil is the pursuit of truth vs the pursuit of status. Wealth acquired for some meaningful & creative purpose is always good. Wealth acquired for power or vanity or social status will not satisfy a person & will only increase the speed they are able to build their own personal hell around themselves.

This is a particularly good idea if you can work on cars yourself & if you buy something from the early 2000s which is probably at it's lowest value now but has some solid potential to be more desirable a decade or so from now.
The only downside is that the risk of unforseen expenses which might not be fully covered by the improvement fund could be high right from the start.
Argumentation ethics is basically described by CS Lewis at the beginning of Mere Christianity, & I have wondered if he just took if from there & gave it a name, but I'm not sure how much it really matters either way. How do you think he is being intellectually dishonest?
Yeah, but it only hurts their ability to make money because they don't want to learn anything new. It could dramatically magnify their ability to make money & to solve people's problems, but most of them don't actually think in terms of creating value for others.

https://www.capitalismmagazine.com/2002/08/franciscos-money-speech/
People who attack capitalism (their own freedom), do so because they have let the propagandists & people who want control over everyone define things for them. They have allowed power hungry people to frame the problems in a way that serves their overall aims & desire for control. What is infecting everything is monetary debasement, which is the heart of all centralized forms of top down authoritarianism. It is the root of every corrupt empire. It is the cancer that destroys every great society. The best living conditions, the best art, the best innovation, & the best of all forms of creativity come from free trade & sound money (capitalism). When those things are undermined everything becomes corrupt.
“Do you wish to know whether that day is coming? Watch money. Money is the barometer of a society’s virtue. When you see that trading is done, not by consent, but by compulsion–when you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing–when you see that money is flowing to those who deal, not in goods, but in favors–when you see that men get richer by graft and by pull than by work, and your laws don’t protect you against them, but protect them against you–when you see corruption being rewarded and honesty becoming a self-sacrifice–you may know that your society is doomed. Money is so noble a medium that it does not compete with guns and it does not make terms with brutality. It will not permit a country to survive as half-property, half-loot."

Seems we have forgotten this:
"When one of you has a grievance against another, does he dare go to law before the unrighteous instead of the saints? 2 Or do you not know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world is to be judged by you, are you incompetent to try trivial cases? 3 Do you not know that we are to judge angels? How much more, then, matters pertaining to this life! 4 So if you have such cases, why do you lay them before those who have no standing in the church? 5 I say this to your shame. Can it be that there is no one among you wise enough to settle a dispute between the brothers, 6 but brother goes to law against brother, and that before unbelievers? 7 To have lawsuits at all with one another is already a defeat for you. Why not rather suffer wrong? Why not rather be defrauded? 8 But you yourselves wrong and defraud—even your own brothers!" 1 Corinthians 6:1-8
"It just doesn't seem loving."
There are three marks of a true church:
1. Preaching of the Word
2. Right administration of the Sacraments
3. Church Discipline
Too many churches, especially Protestant churches, neglect the third mark.
Oh for sure! Especially in regard to forced "marriages", same sex, or incest.
I also think there is a valid point there with marriages under false pretenses, such as going in with the intent to be unfaithful, false identity, existing previous marriage, etc. But again, I think we would look to see if some of these could be remedied via repentance first, so the marriage could be one in truth, before deeming it invalid.
I am curious what this study is considering "Conservative Protestant." I would be very interested in seeing what those numbers look like for Confessionally Reformed Protestants separate from other "Conservative Protestants."
Yeah, over here on the conservative Presbyterian side of things, we are a bit more proactive about examination, admonition, and formal discipline before the divorce or annulment is treated as valid, rather than only getting involved once a divorced party seeks remarriage.
Yeah, I think most of those would be considered valid reasons for dissolving the marriage, assuming the offending person is unrepentant.
I can only speak for the OPC, though I don't know of any other Protestant denominations that issue annulments or certificates of divorce, either. That said, if you divorce someone for unbiblical reasons, you WILL come under church censure that could lead to excommunication if you remain unrepentant.
Also, if you are married to a professing believer and wish to get a divorce, it is expected that you will file charges against them with the church where you are a member. Only after the discipline process is complete, and your spouse is excommunicated after being found unrepentant in a sin that biblically allows for divorce will you be permitted to file for divorce without any negative repercussions, such as church censure against you.
As for annulments, I would need to hear examples of what you mean by unbiblical marriages. Like, marriages to a close relative or someone of the same sex? That would be examples of the marriage itself being sinful, and therefore part of repentance would include dissolving the marriage, which is no real marriage at all.
Personally, I also would prefer to see the State entirely out of the issue of marriage and divorce, but I also recognize that the State is often needed as a mediator in the case of distribution of common property, which is not properly within the purview of the church.
how/where are you tracking this?
Weird thought. The future potential lack of waste heat issue might be solved by the difficulty adjustment. We might have to outrun the difficulty with efficiency to eliminate the waste heat.
Interested to hear a dissenting take.
I don't think a creator was needed, I think the structure of reality is what created everything. It doesn't even seem like we are in the same conversation. You don't seem to understand a single thing that I say. Like the fact that I use the word God (event though I have defined it multiple times) flips some irrational angry switch in your brain.
It's also weird to me that you think the random details of the bible are trustworthy, I think the details are the least trustworthy things. You think someone lived for like 300 years?

I mean, I know people who have jobs where automating or delegating parts of their job to outside help might actually make good financial sense & free up time to work on other things, or for helping the company solve other problems that might justify higher pay.

Keep going Cory. The race is real
If you have never read something out of your depth & come back to it later to discover a lot that you missed, then Idk what to tell you.
The Bible is one of the most difficult books ever, because of all of the abstractions confused by translation.
When did I say anything about Jesus coming back? The only sense in which Jesus returns is in the patterns that play out over & over, or in the sense that Satoshi came to bring heaven to earth & give us the tool needed to set incentives right. But I am kinda getting the feeling that you're autistic or something & abstract patterns are something you have a hard time with.
Well, govts & authorities tend to twist & coopt significant popular figures more often than they create them. And I mentioned the parts being added in from the religions that christianity consumed.
But if it's all completely fake & there was no Jesus at all, then who manufactured the story & to what end?

I think it's the idea that there is some creator that created life in some way that violates all the rules of existence that really makes no sense. The wildly unlikely events that accomplish amazing things is how God appears to work in the here & now. How likely is it for some anonymous guy to create a new monetary protocol that solves all of our problems without taking any credit for it?
Highly unlikely things are at least plausibly possible, magical ressurections & people made from dirt & ribs are not possible. It's just magical thinking in an effort to wave away all the complexity of life. Make the stories real, take the magic out of them, & they become much more meanigful & they make a lot more sense.
Is it more meaningful for Superman to take a bullet for you, or for your dad? The more you deify Jesus the less meaningful the story becomes. But of course kings & normies all want him deified, because kings don't want normies to believe they can stand up to authority & change things, & normies don't want the responsibility or burden of having to stand against authorities for what is right. "Yes but he was God, who are you?" "Yes but he was God, who am I?" And obviously when we hold people up for doing great things they just naturally tend to become larger than life.
I really don't think it is, it's just hard for people to grasp because it takes such an incredibly long time, and because everything as it exists now is equally evolved & adapted to fit its environmental niche. We didn't evolve from any of the monkeys that exist today, we evolved from something that came before both monkeys & humans.
Look at how dramatically different domesticated dogs are from any sort of wild dog. Bears are basically just a big dog. Life does crazy things in response to natural forces.
Whoever it is, add your recipe to zap.cooking. Got zero results when searching for "lasagna."
I mean, farmers have been selectively breeding desired traits into animals to the point of producing livestock that is completely unlike their wild counterparts. People have stressed simple organisms in labs & used selective reproduction to create things that survive in completely different conditions & consume completely different substances for fuel, so it makes perfect sense to me that changing conditions & sexual selection would produce similar results across millions or billions of years.
I think the idea that some imaginary sky personality exists & designed & made everything with the snap of imaginary fingers is ridiculous, but I am not an athiest. I just think God is far more complex than the cartoon nonsense we were taught as kids. God is in the laws & the structure of the universe that set evolution & the creation of all that is into motion.
Teach me your ways.

I am using SimpleLogin for creating separate email aliases for each service I use. That way, if they start spamming me, I can just shut down that alias and move on with my life. If they get hacked, my main email is also not compromised.
Like anything else, Bitcoin can also become an idol, but I don't think preferring and promoting Bitcoin over fiat currency is necessarily an expression of the "love of money."
To keep it from becoming an idol, one must always remember that it is a gift from God, and that even if it does make our lives better this side of the resurrection, it is ultimately only Christ we need if we have an eternal time-preference. There's no amount of Bitcoin that will buy you the words "Well done, my good and faithful servant."
Discovered email aliasing. Never going back.
Yeah, none of than language has ever made much sense to me & no one can ever explain it in a way that actually connects to anything.
The closest I have gotten is that as a result of evolution we have a triune brain, so it might make sense for us to feel that there is a trinity of sorts within us.
I see how the story of Jesus is incredibly important in understanding the nature of man & the divide between good & evil. And that awareness of our own nature leads to more intelligent & desirable behaviors. But most of the rhetoric around the whole thing just seems like parroted ritualistic nonsense that lots of people spout but no one actually understands.
So then God isn't all knowing...? How does all of the information relating to all of existence exist outside of existence? If time & space has to have a beginning then why doesn't God have to have a beginning?
Everything is a result of the shape of existence & reality. Life probably exists as a result of some combo of oil & water, energy differentials, & a myriad of complex cyclical physical phenomena. Economic & moral laws emerge from the logic of life & beings with desires interacting with physical reality & each other.
I just think God is reality & we are made IN in the image of God.
'The miracle is that the universe created a part of itself, to study itself, and that this part in studying itself finds the rest of the universe in its own natural inner realities'
John C. Lilly
Fuck this guy's framing though. They weren't important, they saved no lives, they just hurt people, & those at the top who promoted, supported it, & profited from them deserve to be thrown in a cage for life.
I think God IS time & space & everything within it.
A map or a computer cannot contain all the information in the world. The amount of information that exists in any particular area is infinite when compared to what can be contained in a map or a model or an image. The movement of leaves & grains of sand & living things & all energy & matter simply cannot be capured or stored.
So for God to truly be ALL KNOWING & all powerful & ultimately in control of everything (without the control being arbitrary), God has to actually be the system itself. And so in order to get closer to God we need to better understand the world around us.
There are objective & discoverable laws of morality, but they are dictated by the nature of existence. Old books have very little to do with it, aside from being past efforts of people to write down & explain what they previously discovered.
You should stop assuming things... like I said, most Christians disagree with my views.
Take all the magic out of the story. Make Jesus a carpenter who was born in total povery to a mom that whored herself to some rich "wise men" behind Joseph's back. Jesus grows up poor & has to fix everything to have anything. Then being a builder & someone who had to figure out how things really work, went around teaching people how to live better lives & how to better cultivate crops & catch fish & to heal ailments that people thought couldn't be healed (carnivores are doing similar things today, it doesn't have to be magic). And his popularity & unconventional thinking were eventually seen as a threat to people in power so he was tortured & killed by govt & religious authorities for disobeying the law by helping someone on the wrong day. But his execution ultimately backfires & dramatically shifts popular opinion about the nature of govt & established religious authorities. So much so that our dates are built around him, people deified him & still worship him thousands of years later.
Compress the stories, play the telephone game, translate & re-translate, realize that govts don't want normies to follow the example set by Jesus & normies don't want the responsibility of having to stand up for anything, so everyone want him to be larger than life so they can say but "who am I to do what he did" or "but who are you." Twist the story to incorporate some previously held religious beliefs that were over taken by Christianity. And I think you get roughly the mess we have today.
But when you take all the magic out of the story does it become more or less meaningful? I think it becomes more meaningful. Much like Julian Assange, or Snowden, or Ulbrict, a man tried to show people reality in defiance of authority & he was killed for it. If we place that story in the position of highest importance and remember that we don't want to be on the side that kills or persecutes innocent people, then the world is more likely to become a better place.
Seems to me that if you don't have mental placeholders of some sort to connect things & build understanding then you're more likely to just be an empty vessel for whatever bullshit any scammer can dream up... 🤷♂
Don't you believe bitcoin is an important innovation? How does a person exist without believing things?
Well, I agree that if you read it like a 5 year old then it's all really stupid.
But when I stopped reading like a 5 year old & started trying to unpack the language & the actual meaning in what is written a whole bunch of things began to make more sense.
And most of the religious cult disagrees with my assessment pretty heavily so no one is telling me what to think. My beliefs about what I have read are my own conclusions.
Defining good & evil outside of any connection to reality is just delusion.
It doesn't really sound like you & I mean the same thing when we say "God."
The Bible is an extremely difficult book. It was written before any clear distinction between the subjective & the objective really existed. And it is full of metaphors & idioms from dead languages that just do not translate well. And I think some of the results of the story (or stories) have been confused into the telling itself.
As CS Lewis would say, when the writer comes back on stage it's the end of the show. Be careful what you wish for.
This life is the gift, there is nothing better to escape to. It is our responsibility to bring heaven to earth. No one is coming to save you, the events of the past have already given us all the stories we need to educate ourselves & others in order to avoid making the same mistakes.
We naturally hold something up as "most important," if I were say we should worship God or truth & reality, all I mean is that we should recognize that being grounded in what is real & true is most important. It's important for accomplishing our own desires & for having some way to ensure that the relationships we build are stable & sustainable rather than just some form of service to someone's delusions.
Otherwise I don't think there is anything I have said to suggest we have to worship some persona. I don't believe I have ever claimed God has any sort of persona at all. Maybe get out of what you think I believe & reread what I said...?
Claiming there is no such thing as good & evil is going to be an extremely difficult position to defend. Are you the sort who thinks it's okay to fuck kids so long as you're nice about it & you convince them they want it? That is actually how most pedophiles operate. If you don't believe kid fucking is okay, then why not?
If you really don't think evil exists I would suggest that you read Gulag Archipelago (abridged is better organized & easier to follow). Atlas Shrugged is also a decent illustration of the divide between good & evil.
Good & evil or right & wrong exist within the context of a goal. And all of life is biologically programmed to want to live & to seek better conditions. In a general sense, "good" is what allows people to survive & prosper & improve their own lives. "Evil" is destructive to those ends.

Ever wonder what it was like working for a Bitcoin company in the early days? Did you know users back then were part crazy, part generous?
I started working at BitInstant late 2012, which allowed people to buy Bitcoin with cash. In the fall of 2013, I joined Blockchain(dot)info (BCI). The early days at BCI is what I want to focus on here.
BCI was the biggest non-custodial web wallet & the most used block explorer. I wore many hats as the first employee, but my main job was handling the support tickets.
My first day at BCI was chaos. I logged into Zendesk and saw THOUSANDS of tickets as old as January 2013. There was one guy, Ben Reeves, doing everything since inception. Support wasn't the highest priority.
After initially feeling overwhelmed, I decided to clean things up. I closed all tickets older than a few weeks, and included a message apologizing for the lack of response. I assured people this would no longer be the norm, and to open a new ticket if their issue was ongoing.
I had free reign over my job, and became obsessed with making sure users received help in a reasonable amount of time. It started as a goal to respond within 24 hours of a new ticket, which turned into 12 hours. Within a few months, the average response time was down to 2-4 hours, only because I had to sleep at some point! 😂
I didn't realize how little I knew about Bitcoin until I had to answer tickets about the Bitcoin network itself. After all, we weren't just a web wallet, but a block explorer! I spent many late nights digging around on BitcoinTalk, trying to learn more, so I could help users with their questions. Learning about Bitcoin back then wasn't impossible, but it wasn't easy.
Many early users were shocked to receive a response to their questions. To hear back so quickly was unheard of. There were many Bitcoin projects back then, but most didn't have dedicated support staff. If you received a response, it would be from the founder or some other developer. These guys didn't have the resources to tackle support, especially in a timely manner.
I quickly learned about the generosity of bitcoiners. Many users requested a btc address from me so they could send a tip for the help provided. Even when I told them it was unnecessary, as I was a paid employee, they insisted on tipping.
Many of these users were nuts. 😂 Here's an example that didn't happen frequently, but it happened:
A user opens a ticket during the time I'm actively watching the queue. I see it come in, respond within minutes with a solution, and he insists on tipping. I'm like, "Bro it's cool, don't sweat it," but this madlad won't leave me alone until he tips me.
I look at my tip jar - 0.5 BTC, which is worth a few hundred USD at the time. WTF, ARE YOU INSANE?! 🤯
Part of this generous attitude was about saying thank you, but I believe a bigger part was about the early proliferation of Bitcoin.
We preach the HODL mentality today, but Bitcoin wouldn't be what it is without the generosity of early adopters. So many bitcoins were given out freely so people could learn about it firsthand.
I believe many of the tips I received were from people who, at one point, also received free btc. It felt wrong to HODL these tips, so I paid it forward. I purchased work related items so I could do my job better. I tipped people on Reddit. I donated towards bitcoin-backed fundraisers, including when Andreas fundraised for Dorian Nakamoto. I did everything I could to keep that spirit of giving alive.
The landscape today has changed, but that spirit of generosity lives on. The best example is zapping on Nostr, where people are tipping each other via LN for posts and comments. It's beautiful to see!
Thank you, early adopters, for your generosity. You're a big part of why Bitcoin is what it is today. 🧡
Be kind, be generous, and be a little crazy. 😄
Both should always be legal because "hate" is always subjective. So there isn't really any difference in banning one or the other.
It's like trying to figure out if they are stupid or evil, it doesn't matter, the results are the same either way.

Honestly, it's easier to unpack than most of the new testament IMO.
I have done mushrooms quite a few times. I was an atheist for ~13 years, & I am perfectly comfortable with the unknown, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't seek to understand all that we can.
What makes sense to me is that reality is the body of God. It may be impossible to say for sure whether there is any sort of consciousness attached to it, but I know that on some level I tend to act like there is.
I think the divide between good & evil is between the pursuit of truth & the pursuit of status. So it makes since to hold up the story of a man who was killed for helping someone in defiance of arbitrary authority as the guiding light for who to be, & as a warning against the sort of authority worshipping group think we should avoid. Either we honestly seek & worship what is true & right & good, or we will end up worshipping authority. And those who worship authority will always eventually work to kill God & all that is true.
These same patterns just play out over & over.
After experimenting over the last year on and off, I've concluded animal based diet (meat, raw milk, raw honey) is what's best for at least my own body. Anything else and I get inflamed and swollen all over, get heartburn and overall just feel worse.
Raw milk and raw honey have carbs so I honestly believe it's not a matter of carbs or not, just where you're sourcing the macros from. Animals are yummy 😋
IMO the God of the old testament represents an effort to illustrate that the laws of nature are harsh & unforgiving.
Gravity doesn't give a shit about how much you want to fly or how good your intentions are. If you do not accept that you have to work within the constraints of reality, then reality will crush you. Plagues & floods & economic catastrophes happen, or are most destructive, when people have not properly learned from those who came before them, or when people simply refuse to see the warning signs.
The lesson of Noah & others is that sometimes there are people who see things you cannot see. There are a lot of people today who have been warning of the coming monetary disaster. A disaster that is inevitable because there are people in powerful positions who insist on trying to defy the laws of economics. Unfortunately, most of the world won't listen, & when it happens many of the normies will probably blame the very people who tried to warn them.
If your idea of truth comes from human authority then you will be wrecked right along with everyone else. If your idea of truth extends from your own efforts to develop some independent understanding of reality no matter what other people think, then you are more likely to hear what others have to say, & to recognize the warning signs, so your chances are better.

Nostrnet.work seems to be down. Zapit, too.
My only beef with boosts is seeing the same post boosted 15 times in my feed.
I would love to see a way that a boosted post would show up in my feed only once, but at the point of the most recent boost, or something like that.

Interesting concept. It's going to make me wonder what people are posting about that isn't showing up in my feed, for sure.
I think that was by design. I have heard rumors that students believed people were being brought in for the protests & that the protestors weren't students at all.
I think there is a purposeful effort to confuse zionism with Jewish people as a whole so that right wing neocons might feel free to call any opposition the current Israeli genocide racist, the same way the left has been trained see any disagreement with their own postitions as racism or bigotry.
The goal is to destroy all capacity for nuance in the minds of the masses. If people cannot communicate with each other because they have been poisoned against hearing or understanding the language used by others, then everyone becomes easier to manipulate.
I’d recommend requesting a download off X of all the information they hold on your account. Quite interesting and might annoy you enough to spend even less time on it!
I don't know... I follow people, and want to see what they have to say about any topic they are posting about.
If I go to a topic, though, I would like the option to see what anyone has to say about that topic, or just what the folks I follow have to say about it.

Well, it has been obvious for a long time that they only ever wanted superficial diversity so long as everyone was really the same. They'll call a black guy with a conservative thought an uncle tom at the drop of a hat. They just want multicolor NPCs.

I see a bunch of suggested tags in the search on Primal mobile, but nothing of the sort on the web UI.
NVK is the head of CoinKite, which makes the ColdCard line of signing devices, and has been a staunch opponent of trusting generalized hardware for Bitcoin signing devices.

Well, most churches' elders are actually old guys, unlike the Mormons. Naturally less trusting of new technology they don't understand.
Nostr has a lot to offer for churches who "get it," though. I think many churches censor themselves unconsciously on social media (usually Facebook) because they are afraid of being deplatformed.
That can't happen on Nostr. Open and permissionless protocol.

We actually have this situation on a Minecraft server I play on. Many items are simply not worth 1 sat in game, so they are often listed for fractions of a sat.

I have now deleted my Twitter account, and my medium account. All articles have been transferred to Nostr. I'm also done submitting with Bitcoin magazine for fairly obvious reasons.
Trying to channel my inner @npub1s05…eyhe here- vote for and build the world you want to see in your actions.
Nostr has incredible potential. Within the very definition of that potential there is no free lunch. Expect to pay for relays to host content, for clients to deliver it to you, and zap for posts or content you want to see. It should incentivise others to host, deliver or create content. I need to do more of this, but as a start any zaps to my articles on Nostr have been set up to send half to the relays that host them.
Elon Musk continues to head down the wrong path in many of his actions to monetise Twitter. It is fairly clear that much of what @npub1qny…95gx predicted is coming true. By layering in identity verification, he is seeking to extract ever more value from users information.
Nostr needs to benefit from what Taleb referred to as the intolerant minority - in this case those who vote with their feet and refuse to engage with the walled gardens of Facebook and X, etc - and instead bring their time, money and attention to Nostr.

He was trying to assure me that he understands bitcoin all too well & that gold is really the only way forward.
He was also arguing that Bitcoin isn't worth anything and that gold is the only possible way forward. If he didn't think Bitcoin was worth anything, why buy $5 worth, why hold for 10+ years through multiple long bear markets, why not sell during any of the previous price pumps and take his ponzi winnings...? Even in the off chance that he really did know someone interested in Bitcoin that early on & he really did buy only 20 from that person for some undisclosed reason, he clearly doesn't understand Bitcoin which was what his early involvement was supposed to prove.
I just had a guy say, "I bought 20 bitcoin back in 2010, and sold them when it hit $49,000."
Bitch, in 2010 it would have cost you more to transfer dollars to MtGox than you would have spent buying 20 bitcoin. No one bought $5 worth of bitcoin in 2010... stfu
"playing attention" is a great slip!

There are 8 users within 30 days for the first time on DFE🥳!
I know the UX sucks, but if you tell me, what sucks the most, I can hopefully address those issues first! Since I do not know, who you are, I cannot ask in a different way than this.
Ok, I could add an annoying banner, but that would only deteriorate UX further. Anyway: Thanks a lot!

I think the main reason why not is that these places don’t exist in a vacuum. One dynamic is that they become wealthier as a whole and it results in some local impacts such as house price inflation. But it’s not the same as money printing.

If I used iPhone and had to choose sth different, I would probably choose Google Pixel or Fairphone.
Contemplating hashtags. One is often not specific enough, while combining multiple narrows down results too much, since search is often implemented as AND.
Content wise it is alright though. Apart from the blocking fetish.
