🇸🇪🥷 Ekonomidags avsnitt 60 UTE NU!

De hyperventilerande klasserna säger att Trump är galen, att det inte finns någon plan, o.s.v.

Men en sak är säker - USA måste "göra något".

Vi pratar om tullkaoset, dollarn och USA:s problem i senaste Ekonomidags! #sverige #podcasts

I know it's a dirty world, but I added support for tradfi tickers to the iDotMatrix screen as well.

The exchange rate between the US dollar and the Swedish krona is shown in the image. For some reason...

I might even need several of these screens around the house to show LXMF messages, Home Assistant notifications, etc.

It might end up as with my Raspberries. I am owning way too many! Yet somehow too few... #reticulum

Here's the repo. You need this and the fork of pixelart-tracker.

You are not supposed to call your wife that.

H/T Linux in a Bit

As Roosevelt once said, "speak softly and put your antenna on a long stick"

#meshtastic #reticulum

we need to get more people shrugging!

It looks better live, I promise!

All code will be published here when I clean it up a bit.

Is there anyone who wouldn't want a cheap pixel display which tracks the Bitcoin price and also shows incoming Nostr Wallet Connect events?

Are there any ways to convert Bitcoin into USD or Congolese Francs in the Democratic Republic of the Congo? #asknostr #congo

Has anyone combined E-cash systems with Bolt cards yet?

I.e. why isn't the back-end for bolt cards #cashu mints? #asknostr

At the same time that the EU is not only preventing people from trying new things but also preventing them from even thinking about trying, SpaceX is capturing massive rockets with "chopstick grips". ..

While the EU is stuck in an ocean of meaningless bureaucratic details, Musk is engaged in a process of constant testing and improvement, reminiscent of the natural course of decentralised systems...

The EU is facing "existential challenges", but neither the Draghi report nor the Commission's Compass will be enough to solve these challenges.

Europe should consider returning to its roots - decentralised power structures!

🇪🇺 In The European Union today:

- The censorship framework DSA violates the legitimacy of democracies (consent of the governed)

- DSA also undermines the notion of "informed consent"

- Chat Control 2 will violate the right to private & family life, home and correspondence

- The ongoing war on cash (decashing) undermines both property rights & freedom of contract

- CBDCs - ECB apparently looks for an October launch - will further undermine freedoms, as it will exterminate the freedom to transact

- Without the freedom to transact, freedom of assembly, speech and of religion is undermined

But do, pray tell, regale me with more examples of how the vapid bureaucracy and its European Democracy Shield is "protecting our democracy, upholding our values"...

Yes, but at least they identify a problem. But like almost all politicians their proposed solution would be a disaster.

I see Larry Fink is having fun.

But this fun, a Monday morning?

We face a near future where we may soon have access to almost everything we desire – at least in the digital realm. Unfortunately, what we wish for doesn’t always align with what we truly need.

- How do we create technical solutions that meet our fundamental needs for human connection – rather than just supplying mindless scrolling entertainment?

- How can we ensure those collecting our data don’t exploit it for their own interests, selling us things we don’t need? (or worse?)

- Is the current model of centralisation, corporate giants, and profit maximisation really compatible with our best interests?

You only live once.

Remember to work lots of overtime!

A timeless insight from the heart of #Sweden! 🙃

Asch, Milgram & Girard are crucial if you want to make sense of the world.

I wonder what could be done differently in society to increase cognitive autonomy.

Alas, predictable.

Perhaps our greatest challenge today is not deciding who should govern the information landscape, but instead recognising that no one is up to the task - not even Musks well-ventilated computers?

Instead of talking about "toxic algorithms" and TikTok bans, like so many do today, we should ask ourselves more fundamental questions.

For instance; how about we examine the very notion of information control?

(My proposal to some of our problems would be massive decentralisation combined with protections against Sybil attacks, i.e. proof of work...)

New piece out!

Not sure who posted it but this quote reminded me of both #Bitcoin and #Nostr, in particular Hayek's idea that "if we can’t take it violently out of the hands of government, [then] all we can do is by some sly roundabout way introduce something that they can’t stop"

I was today years old when I found out that the Lord's Prayer differs between Protestants and Catholics.

I am very impressed by what I have seen of #reticulum. Running several nodes myself.
