Where you need even more privacy, don't use email. Even if you self-host with good OPSEC, use SimpleX instead.

Where it's mission critical, don't use the internet at all, use good OPSEC and communicate in person.

I recommend and use Mullvad as well. Paying with non KYC coin from a private wallet using a private server set up with good opsec is the way to go.

But again, it depends on your threat model and usecase. If you are using your identity associated paid Proton account, using the Proton VPN included with your subscription is fine. It's great for giving you privacy from your ISP, circumventing geographical limitations, and even torrenting, optiinally using another provider's VPN like Mullvad or IVPN or a Proton VPN plan not associated with your identity.

"Support for paying with Bitcoin when you first sign up is coming soon. Until then, you can sign up for a Free plan and then upgrade using Bitcoin"

Where you need more privacy, sign up and use a free nym Proton email account (not associated with your identity) optionally using another VPN provider like IVPN or Mullvad or a Proton VPN plan not associated with your identity.

Where you need as close to anonynity as possible, sign up and use a free nym Proton email account (not associated with your identity) over Tor only.

Had a big fire to make char for #biochar last night.

I dug a 10' trench then made sure to keep a good fire going. If a good fire is burning, it starves the coals of oxygen. I think angled sides help with this. The heat releases all volitile compounds and leaves just the carbon structure behind.

When done burning, I poured 40 gallons of water then buried it. I don't have running water here, otherwise I would have used much more. I'll leave it buried for at least a week to let it cool

I'd also recommend just giving protonmail a recovery email that doesn't link to you and always use it with a vpn. That's really the only two weak points that I see that can link to you.

One of the best things about #Bitcoin is that the most privileged, entitled, smug people are the last to grok it.

Anyway, goodnight.

Looking back I wasted so much time being loyal to the wrong people.

Massive miscalculation.

Probably a self worth issue on my end.

I extended loyalty to those who didn’t deserve it and of course it blew back on me.

It was my fault, not theirs.

They never deserved it in the first place.

This is what stoicism is all about.

Looking back and realizing that you were actually the cause of all your suffering.

Not others.

Good morning nostr ☕️⏰️

Bitcoin mining dehydrator processing purple dead nettle to make powerful antihistamine tea

I harvested purple dead nettle while weeding the kitchen garden beds in preparation for planting the annual vegetable starts. Last season, I learned that purple dead nettle is a powerful antihistamine. By drinking a cup of purple dead nettle tea once every 4 hours my allergy symptoms were totally cured without any side effects.

The load of nettle kicks off the second season of using the Bitcoin mining dehydrator, hopefully I can keep it full and processing something continuously until late fall.

This season, the Bitcoin mining dehydrator is setup outside on a covered porch instead of in the house. The heat started to add up after running it continuously for several months and it does make some noise, much like any dehydrator. With it outside, the heat and noise are no concern.

I just received word that Craig Wright has discontinued all parts of his UK libel proceedings against me.

Meaning it's OVER. I just got my life back.

I'm so extremely happy right now! Thank you to everyone who has supported me!
