bro go on, I was a very strong smoker and when I decide to stop I lived an entire year of hell, the only thing I was thinking was cigarettes.
After 1 year away from nicotine, the desire of it just vanished, my body was better, I was happier in every single moment of the day and I finally felt free. Today is like 5 years away I had only positive outcome from my decision.
Also, you really stop smoking when you dont remember the last time you smoked. If you know exactly when it was, you need to be aware because being hooked back is still so easy
absolutely not, private museums that will store something I want to see will have my money when I will visit them.
#asknostr whats the ideal #bitcoin amount UTXO you would consolidate to store it for at least 10 years? Obviously not everyone would be able to consolidate the highest amounts, so whats a sort of "minimun amount to ensure proof-of-future of the utxo in 10 years"?
And what mining fees do you expect in the future?
when you upload your content to centralized platforms they will go to someone else computer that, in case of public events, rebroadcasts it to a lot of other computers. You cant delete even on centralized platforms, see how wayback machine or any of your follower can save your content.
Here the difference is that every event is signed so is more difficult to oblivion contents with entropy (your twitter content could still exists online, but if more and more indexing start fucking up it becomes more difficult to find and associate the piece together. On nostr if you have the npub you can query the content, and if it still exists somewhere you have it).
Probably using different npubs and also burn ones that you dont feel confortable about is a great idea.
WoT is glorified, but who can trust a npub that shitposted a bit on nostr? For what purpose? Is something so valuable? Probably not.
Different for an influencoor that can work, monetize and influence with his singned messages.
In the end, there is the famous quote of the old man in his dead bed:
"I really would have been more online to cure my presence and WoT" -literally a psycho.
A great indicator of how early we are is the market cap of shitcoins compared to bitcoin.
The markets are pricing a scam ponzi scheme like eth around 0.05 of absolute digital scarcity uncensorable money.
An entire scam industry of shitcoin at something like 0.5 of bitcoin.
We are so so so so early.
agree, after someone can read, write and do basic math can also start developing their own self-conscious and start learning from the world and from other people indipendently. Universities today, in the internet era, are full of the most dumb and less indipendent people in their late 20s wasting the most important years repressing the natural crearivity impulses a human should have.
Not surprised by the fact that the academic world has been the most hostile to bitcoin and that they are the last people that started playing with it, even if in theory they would have had the knowledge to understand it first then the average joe.
Fun fact, go university to study and glorify great human that made history because they dont waste their 20s being repressed in academics.
There are always exceptions, great minds and good academic people, this is just my general point of view based on my experience.
I just picked a casual reason, if the production is centralized then they can censor and decide to sell at the price they want to who they want.
If no wind so no energy, I dont argue about the efficiency of these form of energy-extraction, just saying its inportant to think "in scale" and theres nothing "overall better" if then someone will use it to exploit you.
Solar panels could be a more antifragile way to be more independent in some contexts.
a counter argument is that solarpanels based way to produce electricity are better decentralizable. Its better to have their own ineeficient self sovrein solar panel than live in a city that adopt the most efficient nuclear energy but decide to not give any energy to you case you are a bad boy bitcoiner
they did the same with bitcoin, for years it was not considered a serious topic by academics and IT people.
real world experience of people enanched by pgp keys appended to various form of digital speech is what WoT outside of nostr looks like
so did you get the bitcoin?
to be a good teacher you need to cautiosly ispire, and then make people walking their path.
Everyone is ready when is ready and you can do so little to change that, risking also to get the opposite effect when forcing times IMO.
Sometime I found a person or a social group that I feel near my vision of the world and I agree with them on things.
I love when I find something we disagree because proves me that I'm free thunkering and that I'm simply agreeing on something, not conforming.
I killed all my idols from the adolescence, I now see only humans like me; we are beautiful in our own way and nobody is perfect to my eyes.
