Ooooh, glad you asked!

The biggest difference I notices is European trucks are so much smaller vs North America due to space constraints (narrow streets)

Gear & tools will vary by department & funding availability so harder to say. For a volunteer department, we are very well equipped & recently swapped to carbon fiber tanks but I saw heavier aluminum in 1 truck. We also bought electric extrication equipment which improves mobility; I saw gas powered extrication equipment. Was interesting to see some of their trucks can respond with 9 FF! (We usually send 4 or 5 in 1 truck).

Also very interesting that they have both career & volunteers in Frankfurt - in Canada a city this size would be 100% career

Everything reminds me of him...

How serendipitous to come across Frankfurt celebrating 150 years of their fire department! My FD also celebrated a big year this year 🤝🏻

Today is another day for purple-pilling!

nostr:nprofile1qqspnc6chqq37h60cefu2ewx6np0x0ejvc05lyyc9j0wms5j4pm5ascppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0ge4m6w & I endeavored to purplepill Phil Zimmermann (creator of Pretty Good Privacy) today. He was skeptical as he believes some level of censorship is optimal (ie no one should observe torture videos) - despite our belief that uncensored speech is worth some level of bad actors getting through

Open to hearing others thoughts/arguments wrt NOSTR as we may regroup this weekend 🤞🏻

'Merely “making available” a “communications protocol” can, by the SEC’s own admission, trigger an obligation to register.' 👀

Seems like it took a lot longer than it should? And the commentary was sadly uninspiring - shouldn't be questioning if it went through :(

Your country does not need to sit on scarce natural resources like gold or rare earth metals to gain a strategic advantage

Your country can accumulate Bitcoin like Bhutan (13,033BTC) & El Salvador (5,876BTC) to acquire long-term economic prosperity & sustainable national wealth

The only Roman Empire on Bitcoiners' minds is the Byzantine Empire

Solid biomass fuel Bitcoin mining has arrived 🫡 Congratulations Gridless Compute!

afaik this Kenyan site is the first site of its kind - others use liquid biofuels (cooking oil) or biogas (landfill methane or biogas generated w/ anaerobic digestion from farm waste)

Thank you

Made it through surgery 🧡. The scarcest resource is time & we've gained a few months 🤞🏻. Thanks for the support 🙏🏼

I could use some prayers or good vibes for my sweet pup who has cancer. He's going into surgery soon & we hope it gives him a few more months 💔🤞🏻🧡 Thanks nostr fam

I asked. Didn't lead anywhere. Turned out after 10 min it was cause they couldn't find connection to screen (old plane), so I helped the couple and was able to nap

I'm on a redeye flight and the guy next to me is watching his phone with no headphones, voice maxed 😭😭😭😭

It looks like bitcoin, which trades 24/7/365, is an early indicator of a rush for liquidity & a risk off environment again

Steady lads
