I’ve watched you grow your webcomics and i enjoy coming across them in various places.

The message is always simple and on point.

Th plush characters are also cute. Well done.

There are many false prophets, idols, mentors and influencers.

We are meant to believe that their loss is our loss.

And their gain is our gain.

And that we are all in this together.

The truth is often that our loss is our loss.

And our gain is their gain.

And let’s add the biggest one too, you can’t delete anything.

Did you put a lot of time into a post to make it formatted really beautifully for everyone on Nostr to see and then when you clicked on post, the image link wasn’t loading correctly? Nothing you can do but make a reply to your own post like “sorry guys the screenshot isn’t loading for some reason so I have to make this addendum post so you know what I’m talking about. Hopefully you scrolled down this far!”

Or what about the scenario:

“sorry guys for posting that long tutorial about how awesome nostr is four times, (and using up a lot of your data, battery life, etc) but the client I was using crashed after clicking post.”

Also:

“Hey guys the site to the link I posted back in 2024 was taken over by someone with bad intentions and now it contains known malware. I want to take personal responsibility because I shared it back then and at the time of writing there was no delete NIP so tell everyone to scroll to the bottom and read this message so they don’t get scammed!”

I love what you have to say when I watch videos with you in it. I’m curious about your thoughts on this and what can be done for the long term.

Hopefully this can inspire some productive discussion so we don’t end up in a situation where everyone is storing junk posts on their relays that contain typos, errors, etc. and people are like “yeah, I would love to take personal responsibility and clean up my posts, not to mention saving some harddrive space but I just can’t!”

NOSTR kind 5 (NIP-09 Event Deletion) exists and has already been implemented and observed in some fashion by some nostr clients and relays.

Note: NOSTR kind 5 is a best effort approach and relies on both the client and the relay on observing the protocol rules. It is by no means perfect. Nothing is.

It will not save you in court.

It is no different from X deciding to backup your "deleted" tweets and sharing DB with third party.

What would a 2020's prize money inheritance look like, and how much would Brewster need to spend on "fair value goods" in 30 days to be realistic to you?

Brewster's Millions is a comedic novel written by George Barr McCutcheon (Richard Greaves) in 1902

There have been many screen plays based off of the novel.

The 1902 novel: Grandfather leaves Brewster $1 million in a will, but a competing will from another relative requires Brewster must spend the $1 million in the first year or forfeit a $7 million inheritance from the other relative.

The 1945 version: Inherit $8 million but must spend $1 million on fair value goods, without keeping any assets, within 60 days.

The 1985 version: Receive $1 million upfront or inherit $300 million but must spend $30 million on fair value goods, without keeping any assets, within 30 days.

I recently listened to WBD693 with nostr:npub1rtlqca8r6auyaw5n5h3l5422dm4sry5dzfee4696fqe8s6qgudks7djtfs and nostr:npub14mcddvsjsflnhgw7vxykz0ndfqj0rq04v7cjq5nnc95ftld0pv3shcfrlx where "Brewster's Millions" was mentioned in passing.

Having never seen the movie i went digging and watched the 1945 version. Highly recommend.

The podcast was also pretty good 🤙

Elon Musk has sold his Bitcoin and will no doubt be using an altcoin, maybe even the explicitly diabolical WorldCoin in Twitter(X).

This scene from the film "Demon Seed" sums it up perfectly...

"Gentlemen, I must ask you to be completely quiet now. Whatever the machine sees or hears in this room, it can never forget. Proteus, this is Dr. Harris. Can you see me?

Yes, I can see you, Dr. Harris.

(Dr. Harris opens book on Chinese Emperor Qin Shihuangdi)

Ah, your favorite emperor. What do you think of this...enigmatic man?

Nothing.

Nothing? Have you no answer?

"Nothing" is the answer. The emperor's business enterprises, his wall building and book burning, are opposite terms in an equation. The net result is exactly zero."

This scene calculating the ultimate value of the rule of Qin Shihuangdi is both the absolute essence and guaranteed ultimate outcome of Elon Musk's enterprises.

His reckless infantilism, refusal to accept the truth, over eagerness to please, ill tempered reactions to being corrected, inability to empathise with others, lack of discernment, inability to grasp scale, refusal to seek the good over his own interests all condemn him to this calculation.

Everything good that he does is counterbalanced by something evil that he does, in this case, rejecting Bitcoin, the solution to the biggest systemic problem facing mankind; the problem of fiat money, to the potential harm of billions of people.

It is entirely wrong to expect one man to change his character and "rescue" the world; the need for heroes is a character flaw many suffer from. That being said, the need for heroes doesn't prevent math from working, and the equation here that sums to zero applies to the affairs of Elon Musk.

And for the record, Bitcoin, Bitcoiners, the billions of people on earth who need sound money and all things like that will continue and thrive without Elon Musk, and WorldCoin, CBDCs, fiat money and every other anti-Bitcoin machination will fail.

If you are in #Japan and ever get the opportunity i highly recommend going to watch “Hidden Fortress” currently performed at the Meija-za #Theatre 🎭 in Tokyo 🇯🇵

Its an adventure-action period drama stage adaptation of the Japanese movie classic “Hidden Fortress” starring #Toshiro Mifune and directed by #Akira #Kurosawa.

Today i terminated my #Midjourney subscription, one i loved to use to ‘imagine’ unique #art creations.

and in its place i renewed my inactive Amazon #Audible subscription.

In my mind getting access and consuming the lifes work of some of the greatest minds that ever lived is far more valuable to me right now than imagining #Spiderman in the style of Vincent Van Gogh.

Apparently you can also receive #bitcoin #lightning ⚡️ payments on X (Twitter).

and on Reddit.

and on GitHub.

Same guide applies:

Add a lightning emoji and your lightning address to your GitHub, or Reddit or X (Twitter) user bio profile page.

"⚡"+ Lightning Address such as ⚡️ mrmiaggy@getalby.com

Viewers with the nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm browser extension will then be able to tip you directly in #bitcoin #lightning ⚡️.

Just found out YouTube content creators can get tips in #bitcoin #lightning payments by simply adding a lightning emoji ⚡️ and their lightning address to their YouTube About page profile.

"⚡"+ Lightning Address such as ⚡️ mrmiaggy@getalby.com

Viewers with the nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm browser extension will then be able to tip the content creator directly in #bitcoin #lightning ⚡️.
