The experts seem to be convinced that transacting on base layers is equivalent to using a dual axle dump truck as your regular grocery-getter. I won't argue whether that's an accurate analogy but I'm concerned whether we can get subsequent layers where they need to be before Saruman's hordes breech the wall of Helm's Deep.
After listening to this discussion about MSM/GreenPeaceUSA's 'change the code' attack, it seems obvious that bad people with deep pockets want to see Bitcoin fail. If they can't kill it, they'll try to co-opt it, and I don't have a lot of faith in Saylor's 'Let's get rich first then go fix the world' battle plan.

Most popular Bitcoin "Influencers" are NGU Degenerates. I suspect think they are paid by Bankers to be so.
I used to be personal friends with Richard Grove and Jan Irvin who were Conspiracy Influencers back in the 00's. They told me privately they were constantly offered big-time "donations" if they would modify their message.
Bitcoin is compromised. I put the .mp3 of this Batten podcast on my phone for later , and beg you to listen to this one, which describes how compromised BTC is...
Apparently this is what a P2P digital cash succeeding looks like...

Buc-ees mostly only exist where State Highways intersect an Interstate Highway.
I've run 59 from Texarkana to Corpus Christi. Don't recall ever seeing one.
The first season was the only good season, IMO.
I also dig movies and show set in Louzaner because I was raised there, especially 70's stuff.
No sane person would do that.
The fact you are even considering this means you must seek psychological counseling immediately.

I stopped supporting GAB with free content and "likes" after I saw Torba gift Pro status to MAGATard spam bots. I won't go back.
The Internet was filled with fun, smart people until 2007 when the first iPhone allowed any slobbering retard to get online.
Same with Nostr. The barrier to entry of learning basic key management is just slightly high enough to prevent idiots from flooding in. This results in a MUCH higher signal-to-noise ratio, and overall higher quality content.
nostr:npub1kemda478drtx5at65wt8kyjrmy9l27hmp8gsgnfjr8vdgf8y46sqsw0hnv, do you have a link where I could read more about the spiral copper wire concept ?
My plants 10 feet apart with exactly the same water, light, and soil grow at wildly different rates. I'm beginning to suspect it's electrical (like the rest of the Universe 🙂 ).
It's fun. Get a couple of Baofengs from Amazon. Use Chirp to program in the GMRS frequencies. Set them to 5 watts for talking car-to-car during family trips, and 1 watt to chat around the house.
We love them while camping and biking at state parks.
After you learn the basics, start listening to the HAM repeaters. Then get your ticket so you can chat on them.
I used to work in Congress.
Congressmen are Jannisary slaves of the Rulers who pay to have them installed.
Read how the Ottoman Empire employed high-level Slaves: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Janissary
Get your HAM license just for fun and buy a $40 Baeofeng. It's easy.
During the Snowpocalypse I was able to find gasoline for my Parents' generator only because I could talk on the local repeaters and see where availability was located.
Houston has many repeaters:

This latest one "Priscilla" was actually pretty good.
We're gonna vote them out, ...right guys?
lol
Right?

Still on target for Lexington and Concord day?

I slept through the Eclipse the the other day because I needed a nap about 1:30pm. I've already seen plenty of them.
Same with this Halving. I think this is my 4th.

Paul, are you still trying to learn how to profitably run a Lightning node?
I for one applaud our Alien Overlords for reliving me of the burden of having worrying about it.
U.S. Representative Sheila Jackson Lee has provided amazing Science Education like this to her Constituents in Houston, Texas since1985.
Looks interesting!
I believe things are in a state of flux as security and privacy-minded people re-adjust to the new reality wherein attacks with real-world consequences (like getting thrown in prison on false charges) are no longer theoretical.
In the past, such things mostly only happened to high-profile activists like Julian Assange and Edward Snowden. Now it’s happening to normal, everyday people, just like we predicted for years would happen.
Things are getting “real”. People are adjusting.

Feels good man!
