I choose to run knots and whether I update or not. And Luke's always been there for bitcoin, one of the rare few "OG"s who did not completely sell out for shitcoinery.

Oh, and Christ is king. Peace.

Well, at least he ain't a shitcoiner, eh.

I really, really tried to learn your language, but I just can't speak retard, sorry. Wish you all the best.

I have searched for explicitly neutral historical books to research the background of the Israeli-Arab conflict and my support for Israel has only grown from becoming more educated.

It has been my own personal experience that most anti-zionist people are either antisemitic troglodytes, communists, or completely uneducated useful idiots.

Btw, it's completely okay to criticize Netanyahu and Israel and I am sure they committed some horrific and stupid things as all governments do, but Israel is here to stay and I refuse to support people who want to eradicate it. That's pretty much all I want to say about it.

I've never talked to literal nazis and literal antisemites until discovering nostr.

I hope Israel starts turning the tide with its PR, it's amazing how many ignorant people on nostr feel competent to criticize a country fighting for its right to exist. Imagine if Hamas paid professional actors to stage fake footage for western media.

Have a good life, and remember that anti-zionism is genocidal and antisemites are the scum of the Earth.

I love Israel.

I love Jews.

Are there any other insults you want to hurl my way? Get it out of your system.

Or do you want to deny that Hamas uses the Gazan population as meat shields? Does Hamas want to establish a state and live in peace, or do they want to eradicate Israel (from the river to the sea)?

Why are there so many nazi sympathizers and antisemites here?

Children in Gaza want to live, but their parents want to march them into mine fields.

Now look up how many lobbying organizations the other middle eastern countries have in America. AIPAC was also started by American Jews, not the Israelis.

Another reason why the US funds Israel is because it is extremely profitable to be a warmonger, the military-industrial complex demands it. The Israelis would prefer to be less dependent on American arms manufacturing, but this is the reality we live in. Should Israel get its weapons from China? Russia? Ideally, they'd manufacture their own weapons so they can defend themselves from the islamists, but there's nothing wrong with purchasing weapons from other nations.

Mempool policy should be left to the noderunner to decide.

Cool, not gonna read that. You're a religious expert, I believe you.

I think it is a good thing that a religion and culture that venerates child sacrifice is gone and largely forgotten.

There is no cognitive dissonance with defending the innocent. I don't think Jesus would disprove of protecting His flock. Historically, it was a desparate situation - the islamic horde was threatening to engulf the Eastern Roman Empire. If it weren't for the crusades, Constantinople would have fallen earlier and Europe might have fallen to the barbarians much earlier than the 21st century.

If you understand Taqiya and the Reconquista, then you understand why the Spanish came up with the Inquisition.

Both of these topics are moving the goalpost and are complex topics. Neither the Crusades nor the Inquisition were fundamental parts of the christian religion, unlike human sacrifice which was a core component of aztec religious rituals.

The inquisition and the crusades are complex and nuanced topics. What isn't complex is the immorality and savagery of the Aztec religion and the brutality with which the Aztecs treated their enemies. Good riddance, like I said. I don't think there is any value at all in examining their religious practices, aside for satisfying scientific curiosity perhaps.

The Crusades were justified defensive wars waged to defend christians and christian lands from barbaric muslim invaders.

The Spanish inquisition was created to deal with the consequences of taqiya. I actually don't care to go too much into detail here, but a lot of the criticisms against the inquisition is both legitimate and a product of protestant propaganda.

None of these have anything to do with the Aztecs, who were bloodthirsty savages that would rip out the still beating hearts from the chest of their children as part of their barbaric religious rituals. Good riddance.

The Aztecs were bloodthirsty savages who had more in common with Sodom and Gomorrah than Jesus.

I no longer think we should extend our enemies the benefit of the doubt and argue in good faith. I believe very strongly in free speech, but if your ideology does not, why should I be forced to hold you to (my) higher standard?

Socialism is a demonic ideology. Socialists are completely possessed by it.

Guns don't kill people; people kill people.

Sergei Nechaev. Read his wiki page. These people are possessed by demons.

"he [a revolutionary] has severed every link with the social order and with the entire civilized world; with the laws, good manners, conventions, and morality of that world. He is its merciless enemy and continues to inhabit it with only one purpose – to destroy it."

This is what drives socialists, do not be fooled, it is a deeply anti-human ideology.

Being wrong and paying for your mistakes is very much human. Nobody is infallible. Even Ray Dalio made mistakes, and these mistakes cost him and his investors millions of dollars. We call this having skin in the game. He eventually learned because of his mistakes and became an even better investor.

But academics don't pay for their mistakes. They get promoted and publish books. They don't learn, instead they leech off the taxpayer and essentially fail upwards. Why? No skin in the game = no incentive to learn and adapt. It's fiat science.

I would not hire an analyst who was wrong. If I could choose between someone who was right and someone who was off - by a factor of a 1000 in this retard's case, I would always choose the better candidate. This isn't a controversial opinion.

The way academia functions today is that researchers are funded to publish papers, regardless of their quality. Just pick any study in the field of nutrition or exercise and you'll see how laughable they are. Even the hard sciences are having problems, but that's another topic.

Directionally, we are bitcoiners, which makes this particular Harvard economist's opinion irrelevant :).

In a free market, an economist who gets an economic prediction wrong gets fired and becomes a potential liability for a future employer. Why would I hire an analyst who makes a wrong prediction about an investment by a factor of 1000? Such a person might better be suited for unclogging toilets, blowing leaves off the street or performing other, more useful community services in exchange for money.

In academia, the economist can just make up a reason he was wrong, provide ad hoc explanations for their failure, then get a book deal and a career promotion. They can continue living in the illusion they are creating value for society, while in reality they are actively destroying it. And this illusion is maintained by taxation.

tl;dr this person is a fucking moron

It can link to nonexistent pubmed articles and make up data. It is seriously too soon to use it for designing a decision path for a patient.

Lots of shitcoiners on nostr, geez.

But I like my gadgets!

They are structurally similar molecules and use the same GLUT4 transporter to enter the cell.

There will always be alternative distros to choose from, linux allows me to choose what runs on my machine, as opposed to being dictated by Microsoft and Apple.

The amount of people in my life that have suddenly become rabid warhawks and antisemites in the last few years has really surprised me. I have seen people I thought were reasonable advocating for the creation of a european military-industrial complex, as if such a state funded enterprise was ever a good idea.

Great advertisement for Linux.

I don't really care about shitcoins tbh

Seems like an interesting topic for your podcast!

I'd much rather pay to have scum like this deported back to their shithole of origin or imprisoned as long as possible. That way they get to think about all the systemic injustices that have happened to them and come to peace with it or gtfo.
