I’m not pitting them against each other. Just making the distinction. As for ‘sloppy’, I await your fully-defended PhD thesis before you should dare to post anything on the matter.

Ross. He better do it.

They can both be wastes of time, and they can both not be. They both carry the same risk of wasting your time, like this conversation jfc

For people who are not close-minded, you can enter a zip into estatesales.net and find sales near you.

Alot of times they are under pressure to empty the house out as fast as possible rather than get what items are worth, especially on used tools.

If the deceased was into tools, it offers a lifetime collection at bargain prices

I bought most my tools at estate sales. Bought almost none at pawn shops. Speaking from experience. Such a dumb thing to argue and insult over

I see the term ‘conscious agency’ being a much less contentious term than ‘sovereign individual’. In short, I want a technology that can extend my own conscious agency into the network without it being high jacked by a platform. This is a very McLuhanesque take, and is a more constructive position than ‘I am a sovereign individual who wants to f*** the state.’

Conscious agency is also a useful counter to #AI. No matter how intelligent’ AI gets, it has no conscious agency. For that matter, there is no satisfactory scientific theory for conscious agency but we all know it exists, just by looking at each other.

As I said in my earlier post, I am not too fussed about the nature of conscious agency; I am more concerned (excited) about extending my own conscious agency into the network without it being hijacked.

So far, #nostr protocol is the perfect fit, and I can contemplate building solutions like #nostr #safebox that I could never dream of in the user-platform-think world.

Depends on the pawn shop and on the estate sale.

A great way to get good (used) tools at a discount is to go to estate sales in your area.

I'm looking for an illustrator for childrens books. Age bracket 4-8yo early reader style, 16-18 pages for multibook series. Will need to be able to draw animals, especially dogs well.

Anyone have experience or skills or know someone

Ok, lurking too much.

Hmm, I wonder if it’s time to take the hat off 🤔
