To be fair, looks like he’s right about SimpleX, they did receive funding from Gates, Bezos and the Zuckerborg

Great idea! Trying it now

I'm sure I remember seeing a post about a decentralised internet service that can be accessed using crypto payments, I've tried looking back through my bookmarks but nothing, anyone know what I'm talking about?

#decentralised

Awesome, so it's like a personally hosted website for your podcast? Is there scope for making it a browsable platform for many podcasts like nostr. itself? Would be great to be able to find/discover new podcasts. Great work!

I remember finding this Olivetti Lettera DL on ebay for pennies as a teenager and I just had to have it. I was enamoured by its class, the black leather and metal trim screamed quality and made me feel like i was engaging in something of value. At that point I had no idea the fiat system I was living in was a large part of the reason I felt disconnected from modernity and the culture I was surrounded by. I’ve always sought quality as far back as I can remember. The typewriter still works as well as when it was first made in 1965.

I’ve used it for bits and pieces over the years and still love any chance I get to.

I’d prefer it if it was a separate feed though nostr:nprofile1qqsgt0d4sa0pz0wvn9yck36xxezf3qhwzksu0q254vruqed5wvuavuspzfmhxue69uhhqatjwpkx2urpvuhx2ucpr9mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumtfde5kymmvwshxjmnxdu0hppl6 , i’d like to get notifications about when this show is released but I don’t want to have to receive notifications for every episode of everything you release!

New podcast from nostr:nprofile1qqsgt0d4sa0pz0wvn9yck36xxezf3qhwzksu0q254vruqed5wvuavuspzfmhxue69uhhqatjwpkx2urpvuhx2ucpr9mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumtfde5kymmvwshxjmnxdu0hppl6 just dropped about the convergence of Bitcoin mining and energy systems. Will definitely be checking this out. TFTC puts out a lot of great stuff, might be my favourite outlet for Bitcoin information. 💪🏽 keep up the great work TFTC!

My mental health has seen a vast improvement in the first week of me starting a carnivore diet 💪🏽

Sorry, I don't use Primal much apart from posting podcasts but I thought I would share some of the work we are doing here trying to fix Bedford.

Beyond starting a football club and owning local businesses, I have become active in trying to fix the endless issues in the town.

We have economic issues, in that businesses are under pressure from the economic climate as well as growing government red tape. This is being compounded by a massive rise in anti-social behaviour. We have a plague of addiction issues, with large numbers of crackheads, alcoholics and shoplifters in the town. We have a rise in crime, including assaults on women.

This is not a good situation.

Two months ago I threatened the police, that if they did not fix the issue then I will. During August I am funding a private security initiative in the town, where 10 security guards will be deployed across the town as scarecrows, providing a security blanket for residents and businesses.

We have met with the local police and our activity will be coordinated with them. We are also trying to work with the local council too. I am considering establishing a shadow council in the town, outside of party politics, driving civic action.

Alongside the private security, we are building teams for cleaning, events and marketing to drive economic activity in the town.

I just thought I would share this. Bitcoin world has become a little stale to me, it is time to get out there and do things. The UK is pretty fucked at the moment so it is fight or flight time.

Great work, but don’t apologise for not using nostr, just use it!

🔥 Hot take 🔥 👀

Follow small accounts too.

I even mean accounts with no profile, account pic or wallet setup.

You really never know where the next amazing idea might come from.

We were all new here at some point. I made an account a year before I thought about taking the platform seriously. Since joining it’s been the interactions I’ve had with great people who have spent the time to talk to someone with no followers or presence that have encouraged me to continue pursuing this.

It’s a benevolent cycle.

- Newcomers feel welcome.

- They are more likely to invest their time here and post if they think someone might see it.

- You get a front row seat to content no one else is seeing.

- If you like their content and character, you share it and possibly be part of helping someone realise their dream.

- You provide niche content to your followers they wont get from the big fish.

- You have the attention of the person as they don’t have 1000 comments to read through on each post.

- You encourage the boarder of the nostr network to grow.

- The platform you love grows, nostr gets better and has more impact on society.

Think about it, do you water the big healthy plant that’ll do well whether you give it attention or not?

Or do you water the germinating seed?

This is the positive sum game that is Nostr.

Besides, you can always unfollow them if they post garbage 😂

Between 50 and 90 what? Between 0 and 100? Any time i see charts with unclear data on the side and with horizontal bands that differ in size i find it suspicious.

Along with deciding to change to a carnivore diet and take nostr seriously, i’ve decided to watch more inspirational movie to help refuel my soul and will to pursue my dreams.

I’ll start with October Sky, a truly inspirational story of a boy in a mining town during the cold war in the USA. He decides to become a rocket scientist against his dad’s wishes. With help from his school friends and local people who see the spark and want him to succeed he builds a rocket to enter the national science competition.

Highly recommend, a brilliantly written and directed movie about triumphant victory against all odds and achieving your highest values, a new favourite!

They treat man as a metaphysically given phenomena, like rain or the tide, determined by external factors, even people i respect such as Sam Harris do this.

Man is free to choose his actions, he may choose to be good, or choose to be evil. The point is he has a choice. Unfortunately many people choose to be evil, in one form or another they know this, but rationalise and evade thinking honestly about it.

A great tell is when someone gets immediately defensive when sincerely questioned on something they’ve done. They know they are wrong, but they don’t want to understand exactly how because it would shatter the illusion they are trying to convince themselves is real.

Of course it is possible to be honestly mistaken and commit evil acts but anybody who is honestly mistaken would be open to discussion and changing their mind. If their pursuit is to honestly understand reality and actin in accordance with it, they would not get irrationally defensive. If they want to know the truth, they would seek to discover it and then change their concepts and actions according to the new knowledge.

“We need them to stop people from doing evil things. We must control the population with force.”

I’ve forgotten their exact wording but I had a friend tell me this once, I was astounded. When I questioned further, they revealed they held the premise that man is essentially evil and that we need the government to stop people from being evil. She’s a Christian and one of the best people I know, so this malevolent view surprised me, but the more I think about it, the less it does.

Not sure if this answer adhere’s to your question exactly, but I thought it worth sharing.

“Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark in the hopeless swamps of the not-quite, the not-yet, and the not-at-all. Do not let the hero in your soul perish in lonely frustration for the life you deserved and have never been able to reach. The world you desire can be won. It exists.. it is real.. it is possible.. it's yours.”

~ Ayn Rand

For those of you unfamiliar with Rand’s philosophy, don’t listen to the hate, the world can be a beautiful place, but only if you choose to make it so.
