Nostrization #نسترة

I mainly drive EVs for the past few years but needed a rig. So we're back to pumping in expensive liquids that we burn to move.

Well the Muslims did it back then and it was a success. If you're rich you lend interest-free with cost/gain sharing model. Why would you do that? Because your nominal stack of money will be depleted every year by 2.5% because of the obligatory Zakat (wealth tax). So you are encouraged to make your money work for you, hence the circular economy. If you are poor you are a recipient of that wealth tax. This was done in a gold/silver standard.

There's a famous story of a Muslim leader named ʿUmar ibn ʿAbd Al-ʿAzîz who ruled Muslims for just thirty months. During this time, rich men used to come to the state Treasury, Bayt Al-Mâl, with great amounts of money, saying: “Spend this on the poor.” But they would return to their homes with their charity in hand, for it was said to them: “There are no poor that we know of”

Just got to run my own node thanks to nostr:nprofile1qqsg86qcm7lve6jkkr64z4mt8lfe57jsu8vpty6r2qpk37sgtnxevjcpp4mhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mqpp3mhxue69uhkyunz9e5k7qgkwaehxw309ahx7um5wghx7mnnv968xtn0wfnsurtqc6 recommendations. Super easy to get into it, but you quickly realize how deep the rabbit hole is.

Oh stop it Doctor. You made me a carnivore and now I found out that you're bitcoiner too! 🔥

قبل سنة تقريباً لاحظت وجود عدد لا بأس به من المستخدمين العرب في #نوستر وتوقعت أن العدد سيزيد مع الوقت خصوصاً بعد تضييق المساحة المتاحة للعرب في التطبيقات الأخرى مثل تويتر. لكن للأسف لا زال الإقبال ضعيف. لماذا؟

A boring classic story here (denier to believer). But I bought as much bitcoin as I can while living abroad from 2019-2023. Now I'm back in my home country where bitcoin is illegal and no off-ramp is available for me. Best hodl situation ever.

Take a look at what's happening in Gaza then.
