"CR" for short. Edited "Kicking the Hornet's Nest" (everything Satoshi wrote publicly in chronological order). Made the Nostr Wiki at https://nostrwiki.vercel.app and Nostr bridges: Nostrdon (with Mastodon) & Hostr (with Hive). Home page: https://crrdlx.vercel.app

Five years ago today the #Hive blockchain went live as a fork from Steem as a result of Justin Sun's attempted takeover. Hive is great for blogging, it's original use case, and I still use it since your posts are immutable and persistent. (I love nostr too, but are notes here really persistent? If the relays go kaput, don't my notes also?) Anyway, the Hive story is a crazy one and worth a look back. This animation was based off of this article: https://decrypt.co/38050/steem-steemit-tron-justin-sun-cryptocurrency-war

The astronauts get back from #space today. They went up June 5. How long has it been? Joe Biden was president of the US then. And, he was still actually running for reelection (and would be for another month and a half). The rise and decline of Kamala Harris came and went. Trump won, Trump took office. So many things are very different now. The days of June 5 seem forever ago. Time for them to come home.

Digging through old files, I found this note I wrote to myself from three years ago:

Be the most positive, constructive, kind, and thankful person that you meet today.

I'll honestly try.

That's a high calle-hate:idiot ratio. But remember, correlation does not equal causation. Many of us idiots do not hate calle.

We can send people to the moon, but we can't design a freaking #coffee pot that pours without spilling all over the place! 😣

Listening to the radio this am (yes, actual radio) a mock Q&A with a financial advisor comes on.

Host: So Trump recently announced a strategic #bitcoin stockpile. The US government has also had other stockpiles. They used to have a cheese stockpile and gave out cheese. And there's a helium stockpile too.

Advisor: On bitcoin, it can be used as a hedge on inflation when it goes up, but realize it can also go down.

Me: Get ready for the, "I wouldn't touch it with a 10 foot pole..."

Advisor: Between cheese, helium, and bitcoin, I'll take bitcoin.

Me: Wait, what?

Advisor:

Me: Wow, this guy kinda gets it.

He didn't go all orange pilled, he was trying to drum up business, but that sounded like baby steps. When I asked my financial advisor his opinion on bitcoin somewhere around 2017, the response I got was, "...not backed by anything..." and "tulips". Slow progress y'all.

Ahh got it. It's hard keeping up with the cool kids and their groovy slang.

Remember Max Headroom? With #AI agents, I can't believe there's no such character running a 24/7 snarky/funny commentary on whatever pops up on feeds.
