No evidence that it was a false flag, but a possibility. This event plays into the hands of factions within the Russian deep state that are unsatisfied with the approach Putin has taken in the war. OTOH, if the perpetrators were in fact ISIS-affiliated, I’d definitely look outside Russia for a hidden hand.

Can someone tell the nostr CEO to provide proper notice in future when a #zapathon is happening? And for us almost-boomers, WTF is a zapathon? Everyone is talking about it but nobody actually says what it is.

Strike out Sweden and Finland, just joined NATO. Switzerland is neutral in name only, since they bent the knee so many times with the US, EU re Russia sanctions.

At some point bitcoiners will have to accept that democracy is a delusion. We will all be criminals for using bitcoin until we succeed at separating money from state. We just need to be smart about it, use freedom tech, listen to people like nostr:npub1qny3tkh0acurzla8x3zy4nhrjz5zd8l9sy9jys09umwng00manysew95gx, nostr:npub12rv5lskctqxxs2c8rf2zlzc7xx3qpvzs3w4etgemauy9thegr43sf485vg and nostr:npub1dergggklka99wwrs92yz8wdjs952h2ux2ha2ed598ngwu9w7a6fsh9xzpc and don’t become martyrs.

His ghost writer, Steve Patterson, used to have a philosophy podcast that was very good. Brilliant guy, surprised he’s a big blocker still.

GM. Looking forward to it. nostr:npub12rv5lskctqxxs2c8rf2zlzc7xx3qpvzs3w4etgemauy9thegr43sf485vg has become one of my favourites to listen. Honest, uncompromising and based but wrapped in that polite Continental style.

Because we are from somewhere, not from anywhere.

nostr:npub1t289s8ck5qfwynf2vsq49t2kypvvkpj7rhegayrur0ag9s2sezaqgunkzs recently added KYC-light in the form of phone verification to its “non-KYC” option. Sad but still better than the alternatives.

Good morning. We must treat those around us who thought we were crazy with humility. Show them the way gently but firmly, without I-told-you-so’s. Above all else, stay humble, stack sats.

Fiat brains cannot comprehend that a money is forged in a market process. First store of value and only when widely held, generally accepted medium of exhange and unit of account.

GM, STACKING SATS IS NOT JUST A LIFESTYLE. WE STACK TO STARVE THE PSYCHOPATHS AND PEDOS WHO PRESUME TO RULE US OF THE RESOURCES THEY NEED TO PURSUE THEIR SICK POLICIES.

If you fuck around often you will find out that no condom (hardware wallet) can protect you from the consequences.

This but with Sparrow.

I’ve done as much as I could without messing up my privacy. Wish there was some kind of collaborative consolidation service out there: bunch of people throw in UTXOs, and get uniform sized UTXOs plus change back. Like JoinMarket but everyone participating pays their own fees.

On being humble, I don’t have a problem avoiding doing any crazy degen shit during the bull. I do however, spend too much time checking the price and doing mental calculations of how much I have gained in fiat terms. Annoying character flaw. Thank god that I’m able to avoid doing the opposite in the bear market.

It’s OK, hard times made us strong again.

I listen regularly because you have good guests, technical people that don’t make an appearance on other pods. TBH though, I do find your constant digs at coinkite and blockstream a bit tiresome, same with the regular strawmanning of those of us who oppose Drivechains. You are of course entitled to your opinions and its your podcast, just saying that because it detracts IMO from otherwise very informative interviews.
