I bet you in 2021 they were frustrated and thinking gold was at a maximum and returns were diminishing.

for those who REALLY didn't get it. It also refers to Bitcoin being deflationary and prices going down forever aka getting cheaper as well as deflating my ego. FR, do I really need to explain everything? 😵‍💫

You scoundrel. Deflation is NOT always a good thing. You made it cheaper.

For the laggards this also refers to certain forms of deflation and inflation in the OP as well as the deflation or cheapening of my own implied joke.

Like an onion, there's layers

Bitcoin is my money. I don't intend on investing in anything. I try not to overconsume and provide the value that I can

I hate the word wallet when it's not converged. Signing device with or without seed storage, read only UI (for generating requests and displaying addresses etc.) and connected node. There is no wallet unless it does all the things a wallet does, which necessarily means a hot wallet. Hot wallets on L1 is dumb for anyone who understands what Bitcoin will likely become very soon.

In my case my fiat job which I still need thends to be in cities and I'm not yet remote. Land closet to a city is very expensive. I do have the same long term idea though. Starlink, off grid solar, dig a well, live my life.

Here's a video from the 1940's see just past one minute mark, it's even mentioned as vapor trails. It was pretty low tech back then as you can see. I'm not saying there's ZERO instances of geoengineering, but I will say I'm 100% certain it is not as prevalent as those who are most concerned about it would suggest. https://youtu.be/Sg77GDT-S78

Yes. There are a few brands that have more juice (less concentrated) and have shorter shelf life and can be quite good for the hobbyist without the complications of skins etc. It's surprising how good of a wine you can make when you take appropriate care. I tell people I have a homemade wine and they appropriately wince. There's some bad wine out there from the average hobbyist 🤢

"Wine Tannins give me Massive Headaches"🍷

As a low-intervention winemaker, that one caught me off guard.

I’ve heard people blame sugar, sulfites, even histamines. But tannins? Let’s talk about what they are—and what they’re not. 🧵

Tannins are natural compounds found in grape skins, seeds, stems, and oak barrels.

They aren’t about flavor—they’re about texture.

They’re much more present in red and orange wines than in whites or rosés, since those wines stay in contact with skins, seeds, stems, and oak barrels much longer.

I often hear people say a wine is dry, referring to that mouth-drying sensation you get from certain wines.

However, when a wine is dry, that means it isn’t sweet.

People who describe highly tannic wines this way aren't totally wrong because tannins bind to your saliva and do leave your mouth feeling dried out.

While a lot of the tannins in red wine do come from the grapes of oak barrel, then can also be added during winemaking—usually in powder form.

Most of these powders are derived from natural sources like oak or grape skins, and can support structure, aroma, and color without changing the identity of the wine.

I use oak-derived tannins in some of my wines, especially since I age in neutral barrels.

This helps me use less sulfur in my winemaking.

Tannins act more like a protective coating that helps show off the wine’s natural brilliance—not a tool for manipulation.

Most wine additives are used as part of a manipulation regime—designed to hit a target flavor profile, often at the expense of transparency.

And with over 70 approved additives that don’t have to be listed on a wine label, the real culprit behind your wine headache could be anything.

Tannins are different.

There is some nuance.

Hydrolyzable tannins like gallotannins (from oak galls or chestnut wood)—have been linked to mild inflammation or histamine release in sensitive individuals.

But they’re typically used in small amounts and are far less likely to be the issue than residual sugar, poor fermentation, or a cocktail of other additives.

Tannins aren’t usually the problem. The winemaking style might be.

Wine is complicated and often swept into a shroud of mystery to keep consumers in the dark.

But knowing a little can change a lot.

I’ll be sharing more about how to navigate additives, labels, and wine in general.

If this gave you value, please like or retweet that first post.

Yes! I have made wine, just from higher quality kits, but knowing what goes into it is important. I've served my wine to people who claim headaches and it was fine. When people aren't in their craft for the right reasons, it shows.

Agreed but $750 is about 3 year's worth of paying for a model. Plus I'm a father of 5 providing for a family of 7. Time is limited. Bitcoin could easily 10x by then IMO and who knows where AI will be by that time. I'm going to stack.

Integrel calculus is awesome if you self study and get it or if you have an amazing prof. I was not self motivated at the time and filed integrel calculus the first time. The second time around was by favorite instructor I ever had and I aced it.. he was a nutter and made it fun.
