Love the new show, even if I am not from the UK! Took me some time to spot it given that the show's name is different than what was mentioned.
I feel good knowing that nostr:npub1qny3tkh0acurzla8x3zy4nhrjz5zd8l9sy9jys09umwng00manysew95gx can't even convince his family about #Bitcoin
I think the only reason I was able to orange pill mine is the fact that they hate dealing with money and investments and they tend to trust me with it. Otherwise it might have been much more difficult.
Iām intrigued by the idea of switching to a #Bitcoin standard, at least in part. I say āin partā because my wife is unlikely to let me switch all our finances over to operating internally in Bitcoin so Iām going to have to do this with my toy money account. Sheās coming around to the orange way of doing things, but itās going to take some time.
Has anyone else done this and what has been your experience with it?
What have you learned from it?
Would you do something different if you had to do it again?
nostr:npub1h8nk2346qezka5cpm8jjh3yl5j88pf4ly2ptu7s6uu55wcfqy0wq36rpev if you havenāt done a podcast on this idea yet, it might be interesting to do one.
Unless you are paid in sats to me it seems less efficient to be 100% on a Bitcoin standard, and due to capital gains implications & FX spread considerations it makes more sense to pay for monthly expenses with dirty fiat. If you are willing to take the spread and cap gain hit, then yeah being on a Bitcoin standard must be awesome for the circular economy.
Yes I agree, Saylor kept arguing against stuff that Saif never said...
I think there will still be borrowing and this won't go away. However the interest rate with a money that inflates less than 0.1% annually in 21 years cannot be as high as it is for a fiat inflating 7%+ per year on average. Given that bank deposits are not able to sustainably yield 5% in fiat now, I don't see how can Saylor expect BTC deposits to sustainably return 5% in interest in 21 years. Maths simply don't work, that BTC denominated interest rate will have to come down.
Saylor does not make any sense in that video. Is it old?
Thanks a lot for this, it is the most useful information I have been able to find so far. I think I might have inherited a genetic condition (waiting for a test result that is supposed to take 3-4 months!) and I am hesitant to go with statins right away. I need to get ApoB and LDL-P measurements. My diet was not so bad and I am not overweight, but I did cut on sugar and saturated fats (cereals for breakfast, occasional butter, cream in coffee, coconut oil for cooking) as much as a could recently and tried increasing proteins (lean chicken, nuts, 0% greek yogourt) and vegetables. I was considering taking Omega3 supplements as well.
Is the rayioof bad vs good cholesterol more important than the individual level of bad cholesterol? I.e. is it better to increase good cholesterol through through food / supplements vs taking medication to reach a target for yhe bad cholesterol level alone?
It is certainly a thing yes
#Orbot's #Tor service and #Wireguard 's VPN service keep turning off by themselves on my Android phone and it is quite annoying not being able to rely on these. Anyone else having similar issues?
Often I notice that the Tor service on Orbot turns off by itself, such that just adding apps on Orbot is not reliable at all. Enforcing Tor as an option at the app level seems better
Lyn's video on Broken Money: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jk_HWmmwiAs
Your book and the associated video you mafe are always the first resources I recommend to newcoiners. I find them very accessible and inclusive for anyone who would like to start digging the rabbit hole. Thank you for bringing these resources to the World!
Ok I see. I thought there would be a button in compose mode to generate a single use account. It would make it faster to write a single message under a new entity and eliminate the risk of reusing it by mistake. It would not allow to continue replying under that identity in a thread though
How can I create a new anonymous identity to post with #Amethyst ? I heard nostr:nprofile1qqsqfjg4mth7uwp307nng3z2em3ep2pxnljczzezg8j7dhf58ha7ejgpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgqgmwaehxw309aex2mrp0yhxy6t5vdhkjmnsv9exktnrdaksz8rhwden5te0dehhxarj9ekh2arfdeuhwctvd3jhgtnrdaks9hhj2c mention a few times that it was possible, but I could not find where... Thanks!
Often I look at #Wireguard on my Android phone and I notice that it is turned off although it should be on all the time. And it does not always coincide with a phone reboot (it is configured to start automatically anyway). Anyone else has this issue?
Wireguard works great, but it will not do NAT traversal as opposed to #Tailscale, correct? My understanding is that NAT traversal likely requires a coordinator of some kind, and this is the main function of Tailscale. What I am concerned about with Tailscale is the meta data they collect and if this can be turned off reliably with the Android client if using a private #headscale server
#Tailscale allows you to get encrypted connectivity to your node, and it works even if this node is behind a firewall you can't control or a NAT. #Tailscale does not obfuscate the IP address for your services through multiple hops and exit nodes, as opposed to Tor. So through direct P2P #Tailscale will be much faster than Tor and likely less subject to DoS attacks, but it does not accomplish exactly the same function as Tor. If you want to use #Tailscale it is likely that you will want to combine it with a VPS.
