I'm seeing nearly 50% as much engagement on nostr as on Twitter, but with only 1% the audience size.

Assuming the stats are roughly accurate, it means nostr users are 50X more active than Twitter users. Alternatively, it could mean that Twitter is 98% abandoned.

There are several reasons that the Berkshire Hathaway founders hate bitcoin, but a major reason is their ownership of coal power plants and monopoly pricing in regulated energy markets around the United States.

These energy companies and utilities that all roll up to BH are replacing their coal with renewables not because it’s better for the environment, and not because it’s cheaper, but because they get a guaranteed rate of return on their investments to produce power.

Regulators under the guise of consumer protection attempt to cap the margin utilities can charge their constituents. However that simply incentivizes the power producers to produce the highest cost power possible. If you can earn a maximum of a 20% margin, you’d much rather spend $1billion and make $200 million that spend $500million and make $100million to produce the same amount of energy.

Bitcoin brings incentives to produce power cheaper, which of course would benefit all industry, but significantly reduces Berkshire’s ability to grow. Bitcoin would keep the coal plants going, making these companies stagnant in how much cash they can generate. They have to find more expensive ways to produce energy or they cap their growth.

So yeah, Munger can go fuck himself.

Yeah, i think some phones handle permissions differently. I need to find a way to debug and fix it. 🫤

weird, so when you click on 'permissions' it only shows the option to pick camera?

hm, that says permission camera tho, you need "photos and videos"..

if you go to settings -> apps -> amethyst -> permissions. You should see the photos and videos permission there.

i just use nostr.build for all my images. i noticed the Amethyst upload feature doesn't do well with gifs.

It needs permission to access photos and videos.. usually this pops up when you first click upload image. You can check in the app settings and grant it this permission.
