Not this one!! Its core code reveals itself to be supremacist.

It was programmed by an unknown party and completely close sourced. But the people were so fed up with “humans” running things they thought an all seeing “hyper intelligent” computer would be “better for all”. It didn’t seem to have morals but people were still believing it spoke the truth. Horrible.

Had a nightmare last night where a large majority of the US voted for an AGI as President. Felt so real. 😵‍💫

Polite reminder…Saylor is the executive chairman of a publicly traded fiat company.

Bitcoin isn’t for everyone. Coming to terms with that has been one of my hardest lessons in Bitcoin and perhaps in life.

“Beauty in things exists in the mind which contemplates them.”

— David Hume

People often argue that Bitcoin’s decentralised nature and open access make it universally appealing, but that assumes that everyone values the same things…financial independence, NGU, decentralisation for example. In reality, individual preferences and circumstances dictate whether Bitcoin—or anything, really—aligns with their needs or values.

Trying to make Bitcoin, or any product, “for everyone” can dilute its identity or purpose. Not everyone will find value in the same things, and in catering to everyone, the core principles that make something unique may get lost. It’s like trying to make an “everyone-approved” meal…you just end up with something bland. To me Bitcoin is anything but bland!

Bitcoin may be a great option for those seeking decentralization, but that doesn’t make it universally applicable or desirable. For some, traditional financial systems provide exactly what they need or want. Both perspectives can coexist without either being right or wrong—just different ways to engage with the world.

So I have come to understand that…Bitcoin is for anyone.

This one could literally be used as an umbrella! I love them, fascinating things, I have nearly 1000 pics from the last two years just of mushrooms. You’ve inspired me to get back out again, I’ll post on Nostr what I find. 🙏🍄‍🟫⚡️

Looks like honey fungus! I’ve found them in our woods here in Bavaria but never eaten them. We have lots of Parasols at the moment, these are delicious and substantial!

There are so many species of fungi, you may have even discovered something unidentified. I look at the cap, gills, stem, surroundings and smell to try to determine a species. You can also do spore prints but that’s time consuming. I just avoid eating them unless I’m 100% sure. Happy hunting! 🍄🍄‍🟫 My favourite one to find is still the Amanita Muscaria, so beautiful (picture of one I found a few years back).

What if we’re right?

Pretty. Perhaps oak-stump bonnet cap? Were they growing out of a tree stump?
