Host of the Satoshi's Plebs podcast! Pleb miner.

Hey .. you should listen to this. It’s pretty awesome. nostr:npub10xxhztawwgtuapdej49q5jgfawu5p0f2j2tzuaxxww2hl546ct3sr7pcjl brings it on this one. Great discussion of mining, the future of mining, news, views and even a minute or two about the best Valentine’s present I have ever received! nostr:note1uncxqesq3mn5yx54csnadyv40246dtp294h6cjntgflfcv5ztuhsdy7xvu

It did. For now I have solved the problem. I can pull the mp3 out of the rss feed - stick it into Reaper and deal with it like any other track in my DAW.

I have to make some other adjustments then I can use the split tool in Pod home to add splits for the music.

Once I try and go live down the road .. that’s a lot more issues. Not ready for that..

Thanks for the help!

No. I’m not doing live yet. This is all being assembled post recording and then published.

I just did it for the song I spent two hours last night trying to get working. Thanks !!

I have not used the split kit yet but I intend to integrate it so the musicians get the proper support.

As for host I use pod home. Love it.

I didn’t think about getting the mp3 out of the rss. That would do the trick for sure.

I feel dumb asking this .. but I’ve wasted enough time on it already.

I’m wanting to use some v4v music in my podcast to provide a change of pace, some exposure to the musicians and to set up some splits to support them.

But all I see is streaming stuff like lnbeats. How can I use that in my podcast?

Right now I’m just recording wav files of the hosts and importing into reaper. I tried capturing the band audio from lnbeats/chrome using black hole and redirecting into reaper. It technically worked but even after turning the input volume way down it was still clipping out. Not good at all.. 
So you pros out there using music in your setup.. how ????

Thanks !!

Your choice 🤷‍♂️

When it comes to AI, philosophical people often ask "What will happen to people if they lack work? Will they find it hard to find meaning in such a world of abundance?"

But there is a darker side to the question, which people intuit more than they say aloud.

In all prior technological history, new technologies changed the nature of human work but did not displace the need for human work. The fearful rightly ask: what happens if we make robots, utterly servile, that can outperform the majority of humans at most tasks with lower costs? Suppose they displace 70% or 80% of human labor to such an extent that 70% or 80% of humans cannot find another type of economic work relative to those bots.

Now, the way I see it, it's a lot harder to replace humans than most expect. Datacenter AI is not the same as mobile AI; it takes a couple more decades of Moore's law to put a datacenter supercomputer into a low-energy local robot, or it would otherwise rely on a sketchy and limited-bandwidth connection to a datacenter. And it takes extensive physical design and programming which is harder than VC bros tend to suppose. And humans are self-repairing for the most part, which is a rather fantastic trait for a robot. A human cell outcompetes all current human technology in terms of complexity. People massively over-index what robots are capable of within a given timeframe, in my view. We're nowhere near human-level robots for all tasks, even as we're close to them for some tasks.

But, the concept is close enough to be on our radar. We can envision it in a lifetime rather than in fantasy or far-off science fiction.

So back to my prior point, the darker side of the question is to ask how humans will treat other humans if they don't need them for anything. All of our empathetic instincts were developed in a world where we needed each other; needed our tribe. And the difference between the 20% most capable and 20% least capable in a tribe wasn't that huge.

But imagine our technology makes the bottom 20% economic contributes irrelevant. And then the next 20%. And then the next 20%, slowly moving up the spectrum.

What people fear, often subconsciously rather than being able to articulate the full idea, is that humanity will reach a point where robots can replace many people in any economic sense; they can do nothing that economicall outcomes a bot and earns an income other than through charity.

And specifically, they wonder what happens at the phase when this happens regarding those who own capital vs those that rely on their labor within their lifetimes. Scarce capital remains valuable for a period of time, so long as it can be held legally or otherwise, while labor becomes demonetized within that period. And as time progresses, weak holders of capital who spend more than they consume, also diminish due to lack of labor, and many imperfect forms of capital diminish. It might even be the case that those who own the robots are themselves insufficient, but at least they might own the codes that control them.

Thus, people ultimately fear extinction, or being collected into non-economic open-air prisons and given diminishing scraps, resulting in a slow extinction. And they fear it not from the robots themselves, but from the minority of humans who wield the robots.

I think about this a LOT. What are governments going to do when even 25% of the people aren’t “necessary”. Does the government just support them? Where does that money come from? Endless questions..

From what I see, It’s either wall-e ( the movie ) and we are all slugs or some dystopian hell-hole of a future. Neither very appealing.

Let’s goooooooooo!!!!!!!’

I feel the need … the need to zap ⚡️ some sats!!!!

Early this morning nostr:npub10xxhztawwgtuapdej49q5jgfawu5p0f2j2tzuaxxww2hl546ct3sr7pcjl and I released the 197th episode of Satoshi’s Plebs. We also kicked off a zapathon for those who follow the new nostr:npub1hkkcygtuz63jccf3ls63eqltrkztnx2n0kqtq2qgeqq6e52x9xyqpyfvlm nostr account. The guidelines are in the linked post. I got some some sats burning a hole in my pocket so come join the fun!! nostr:note15vg5fpxw488dtz8nd93m9z3dddy446aya4e9xufdktjdwywrwccqx85te8

I’ve been so busy this week I thought it was 13th and tomorrow was Valentine’s Day. Obviously, I was incorrect. Happy Valentine’s Day plebs!!

Now go mine some free sats.. nostr:note1rey2c4rf9fgg4jj3gjjuwufk6jhvwwkn9tj0rykj6gjjp4u8mjuqmqdd0q

Good night nostr - see you in the morning 😂

If I had to make a choice right now .. I would probably buy a ranch in Argentina to start a buffalo 🦬 herd and a place in the northern hemisphere for Christmas in the mountains in the snow.

I would continue to do btc things .. as you know trying to make something valuable that contributes to the community and provides value back to myself.

Smash those bugs!! nostr:note1l3x5h5vrj6tc7xz56snlqlw0g6y3e30f3atmw6d06hju7nu6ldks2d2lnu

Time will tell but it’s certainly beginning to look like this is 💯 percent correct. If so .. it will never be topped and very likely the Democratic Party in the US will never recover. It seems that this is entirely Democrat driven ( which I find extremely odd ). nostr:note1d0ppsk5c3lvpl0mp0jh5xqupswna0ksmt26rkcyvmzu927vsswxqvsuc45
