“By definition, a human being is endowed with free will. He can use this to choose between good and evil. If he can only perform good or only perform evil, then he is a clockwork orange - meaning that he has the appearance of an organism lovely with colour and juice but is in fact only a clockwork toy to be wound up by God or the Devil or (since this is increasingly replacing both) the Almighty State.
It is as inhuman to be totally good as it is to be totally evil. The important thing is moral choice. Evil has to exist along with good in order that moral choice may operate. Life is sustained by the grinding opposition of moral entities. This is what the television news is all about. Unfortunately there is so much original sin in us all that we find evil rather attractive. To devastate is easier and more spectacular than to create.”
— Anthony Burgess, A Clockwork Orange
Water is for poor people…I drink milk! It’s isotonic too.

First thing I did last night! I hope it works!
GN Plebs! Life is good. ✌️
Hopefully! Journalists are usually shameless though if they have dirt. It seemed very easy to dox him, perhaps it’s another nym… 🙏
Some twat already added it to Wikipedia as well.
Your attention is what she wants and it’ll help spread the article. I’ve just reported it as a privacy issue.

GM! It’s a beautiful day! Had some bad news but still very grateful to enjoy another day on this planet! 🧡⚡️🙏🕊️
Here’s Chat GPT’s advice…
The "no_route" error in your Lightning node can be caused by several factors, despite your node being well connected. Here are some steps to help you debug and potentially resolve the issue:
1. **Channel Capacity and Balances**:
- Ensure that both your node and the nodes in the route have sufficient capacity and that the balances are sufficient to cover the payment.
2. **Channel States**:
- Verify that the channels you are relying on are active and not in an offline or disabled state. Use `lncli listchannels` to check the state of your channels.
3. **Routing Fees**:
- Check if the fee settings of the intermediary nodes are preventing the route from being viable. Some nodes might have high fees or specific policies that make the route unfeasible.
4. **Node and Channel Policies**:
- Ensure that there are no policy restrictions on the channels, such as minimum HTLC amounts or maximum HTLC limits, that could be preventing the route. Use `lncli getchaninfo
5. **Graph Synchronization**:
- Ensure your node's network graph is up-to-date. Sometimes, a "no_route" error can be due to outdated network information. Use `lncli describegraph` to check your graph status and consider forcing a graph sync if necessary.
6. **Routing Hints**:
- Sometimes providing routing hints can help. Make sure the invoice you are trying to pay includes routing hints if needed.
7. **Payment Splitting**:
- If the payment amount is large, consider splitting it into smaller parts. This can help find routes that may not support larger single payments.
8. **Logs and Debugging**:
- Check the LND logs for any additional error messages or warnings that can provide more insight into why the route is not being found. Logs can be found typically at `~/.lnd/logs/bitcoin/mainnet/lnd.log`.
9. **Channel Rebalancing**:
- If your channels are imbalanced, try to rebalance them. You can use tools like `lndmanage` to help with rebalancing.
10. **Network Issues**:
- Ensure there are no network issues or connectivity problems with your node or the nodes in the route.
11. **Reputation and Reliability**:
- The reliability and reputation of the nodes in the route can affect routing decisions. If nodes frequently fail, they might be avoided by routing algorithms.
To provide more specific guidance, examining the exact error messages and your node's current status in detail would be helpful. If the problem persists, consider reaching out to the Lightning community or forums where you can get more targeted advice based on your specific setup.
They’ve been political since the medieval times. Police are a government funded entity, they answer to the politicians not the people. My original point was more aimed at the individual policeman, he thought he was helping and tbf in the heat of the moment he saw a man beating another man, he acted, most of these guys believe they’re doing the right thing, I have no issue with the individual. This insanity will only escalate as we descend into chaos, i try not to get too caught up on it, cause it’s all noise! Our uneasiness towards it doesn’t solve anything, it just adds to the noise and chaos. ✌️
