Cut it off at the source and ban crypto wallets.

Ok was getting into a simple #Gedankenexperiment. since I first heard about global warming in 1993, I have been struggling with one thing.... the differential volume of a sphere (or oblate spheroid in this case.)

using 6378 km for earths radius (NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center)

So Surface area of oceans, conservatively is:

4*pi*r^2 = 4*3.1415*6378*6378 = 511,170,000 (keeping only 4 sig figs)

The projected sea level rise by 2100 per https://www.climate.gov/news-features/understanding-climate/climate-change-global-sea-level

"on a pathway with high greenhouse gas emissions and rapid ice sheet collapse, models project that average sea level rise for the contiguous United States could be 2.2 meters (7.2 feet) by 2100 and 3.9 meters (13 feet) by 2150.2"

Now about 71% of earth is water, but for this calculation lets conservatively estimate that the connected oceans are only 65% of the surface:

The volume of ice needed to do this would be:

65(4/3*pi*r_final^3 - 4/3*pi*r_intial^3 )=0.65*(1.087874E12 - 1,086749E12) = 731,200,000 km^3

Now it is estimated that there are about 26,500,000 km^3 of ice in antarctica (if it all melts) and that is the largest deposit in the world. Greenland is also large but less than that, and all the other ice (i.e. Arctic, mountains, etc...) might be 7,000,000 km^3

So conservatively estimating that there is no more than 60,000,000 km^3 of ice in the world (most likely closer to 45-50 million cubic kilometers)

How can see levels rise 2.2 meters? you are a good solid 680,000,000 km^3 short (yes 680 million cubic kilometers short)

What am I missing. These are smart scientists I can't believe a small down #chicagoan​ would out think the best scientists in the world

So cool. I can’t believe NYC is planning to outlaw these. What are the New York #bitcoiners going to do on #bitcoin 🍕☀️

#zap Happy Saturday morning out walking the dog and I think I’m gonna go ahead and zap 42 #sats to all my followers #nostr

nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s Could Damus track and display view counts on notes?

What could happen is a new NIP such that each relay recorded the times it served a note. But since not all people are connected to all relays and each client connects to multiple relays it would be difficult.

Another option would be a nip such that each client sends/broadcast a list of all confirmed views/interactions with a note.

Fixed your image for you: enjoy!

Reading this subtitle luckily 80% of the readers did not find this article helpful.

Cool, I was wondering about that when I realized that 1 sat could settle at between a dime and a dollar.

Can’t be done from Breez or wallet of satoshi currently.

From Breez on the profile zaps yes, otherwise it would need to be in the invoice.

This is a client feature, but I am not planning an upgrade since my version of Breez allows zapping from notes.

On a side note Breez (self custody) seems to be a slower wallet.

Got a few #zap #zapathon

That is a rare beauty nostr:note1lq50e6swt3xgxy0nmptxe7te3ks4spepetr6femzkuvamjd8j3cqqxfkw8

#nostr #relay #damus

From the nostr web page:

Clients fetch data from relays of their choice and publish data to relays of their choice. Relays don't talk to one another, only directly to users.

For example, to "follow" someone a user just instructs their client to query the relays it knows for posts from that public key.

So if you run your own node, only your own posts will ever be stored there.
