This team is really great. Imagine for a moment if there were only white German players

Heard about blossom drive for a while now and just played around with it, insanely easy to get going. Need to figure out:

1. How to upload data via cli (downloading is as simple as 'wget ...').

2. How to setup own server.

3. Convert OTA update system from IPFS to blossom.

Bullish.

Don't tease

As a Brit I support this perspective https://youtu.be/b5aJ-57_YsQ

From the body show in Amsterdam

Intriguing comment so asked gpt4o.

The comment contains a mix of accurate information and some misleading implications. Let's break it down:

1. **Brain and Cholesterol**:

- The brain does contain a significant amount of the body's cholesterol, about 20% despite comprising only about 2% of body weight.

- Cholesterol is essential for the structure and function of brain cells, including synapse formation and neurotransmission.

2. **Cholesterol and Hormones**:

- Cholesterol is a precursor for the synthesis of steroid hormones, including sex hormones (estrogen and testosterone) and corticosteroids (cortisol).

3. **Statins and Cognitive Function**:

- Some studies have suggested a possible link between statin use and cognitive decline, but the evidence is not definitive. The FDA states that memory loss or confusion reported by statin users is generally non-serious and reversible.

- Other studies suggest statins may have protective effects against dementia. Overall, the relationship between statins and cognitive function remains complex and not fully understood.

4. **Statins and Muscle Mass**:

- Statins can cause muscle-related side effects in some individuals, such as myopathy, muscle pain, and, in rare cases, rhabdomyolysis (severe muscle damage).

- The effect on muscle mass is not typically characterised as significant muscle loss but can lead to discomfort and weakness.

5. **Hormone Imbalances**:

- Statins do not directly cause hormone imbalances in most people. However, because cholesterol is involved in hormone production, there could be indirect effects, though these are generally not significant in typical statin use.

### Summary

- The brain uses a significant amount of cholesterol, which is essential for its function.

- Cholesterol is a precursor for hormone synthesis.

- The link between statins and cognitive decline or dementia is not conclusively proven and remains an area of ongoing research.

- Statins can cause muscle-related side effects but are not commonly associated with significant muscle mass loss or hormone imbalances in the majority of users.

Rebuild it stronger 💪 the second time building something is always quicker 😊

Perfect weather too! I was lucky a few days ago, https://video.nostr.build/412716dd31d0b80c1042c8ca8a227e9972adb858eaadf71a7b391a3ae720aa64.mp4 apparently half the time clouds cover it

I'd also like to see borders abolished and country flags put into museums as relics too. We are a long way from this happening though.

You have a good point about living a better one for ourselves. I'm in Japan on a trip at the moment and they obviously have a very strong cultural identity, to the point that foreigners may be offput from settling here unless they are strong in their own identity and also culturally appropriate themselves.

I'm British and would love to see more of my countryfolk see this viewpoint. Unfortunately it's not an easy task since what is experienced by many feels like an ethnic takeover by immigrants (Islamic or not).

How would you debate your side on this?

Become self employed

On day 5 of a 2 week tour of Japan at the moment, many thanks kind stranger!

Nostr is not like Bitcoin because the barrier to entry to Nostr is practically nil.

Nostr is like Bitcoin cos zaps

I used bitrefill to do this - bought an Amazon gift card that'll be used eventually

Tried setting up Zeus with a Raspiblitz and it needed various steps (0-conf txs and a certificate adding I think).

Ended up buying stuff from bitrefill :-D

Nobody sane votes for this shit.

What usually happens to get bs like this passed is a proposal has huge amendment slapped on hours before voting so no one has the time to read it.

Then don't keep your Bitcoin on an exchange and issue a hardware wallet instead. There's an adage by a Bitcoin guru called Andreas Antonopolous that goes "not your keys, not your coins", which is saying self custody is the most secure method to hold your Bitcoin.
