Yeah it could learn a bunch of flying moves as well, though not all of them.

Which is very useful.

The talks that Javier Milei has been giving recently have been good whitepills for me.

'Where there is trade, there is peace.'

Never played red that much.

I played the Hoenn region ones: Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald.

I'd always pick torchic because its evolutions are lethal fire and fight combos.

Regular reminder that the voice of dissent against the Government very much exists in India.

It is merely channeled in the wrong direction towards some or the other form Socialism which ends up subtly giving more power to the Government.

Therein lies the failure of the country's intellectual elite since we attained independence in 1947. We are all collectively failing the country's future generations by being utterly dumb and clueless about the economic evils of socialism.

I personally take full responsibility for being dumb and clueless till sometime in the first half of 2024. I need to do better.

A subset of people who really need Nostr are finally starting to use Nostr: human rights activists.

It's likely that they will stop being active after a while, but if they get deplatformed from traditional social media, Nostr will be here for them to fall back on.

It's the most powerful client I've used so far

That's your definition of rightism. The widely accepted definition is a policy of nationalist fervour.

Is there a way to display a small web of trust score next to names so that people would know that it's not the real person?

Similar to how blue checks are displayed on twitter and instagram perhaps.

It's pretty clear from today that people would assume that it's actually fiatjaf just by looking at the name.

'I guess my point is, we've come a long way.

It's easy to get disenfranchised.

It's easy to get frustrated.

But we're doing the thing.

It comes down to people doing the thing.

You got to keep pushing forward.

And instead of complaining, if there's a problem or if there's something you think can do better, do it better. Just do the thing better.

And if we keep doing that, it'll compound.

And we'll empower individuals around the world.

As a result, more people will have freedom.

More people will have better lives.

And as a new parent myself, this is imperative,

I do not want my kids and my grandkids to live in a dystopia.

And if you do nothing, they will live in that dystopia.'

Leftism is a disease

Rightism is a disease

Socialism is a disease

Fascism is a disease

Communism is a disease

Collectivism is a disease

Freedom is the cure

Experience does that too. Can't one can be young but experienced and hence start to care less?

Yep. I added that relay and I could see all the posts.

I don't think it's a failure that we need to add that relay to load everything.

If a person I know doesn't want his notes to be on all public relays but his own, I'd be okay with adding his to my list.

The second part is what most people aren't okay with. They had to be reined in and people have done exactly that by forcing them to be in a coalition to remain in power. They are however far better than the side that sits in the opposition.

The current side that sits on the opposition will wreck the country to another level because they're very socialist in their political leanings.

Freebies, populism, affirmative action, insane govt spending; name a socialist characteristic and I'll show you a promise in their election manifesto that embodies that.

Today I learnt that once Communism collapsed in Poland, they turned the communist party headquarters into the home of the country's stock exchange.

My respect for Polish people just went up.
