TIL about the word "clanker" and I'm laughing my ass off

i strongly believe children should not have access to social media

i also strongly believe that governments should not force users to provide identification to access the internet, they use kids as the excuse but the real reason is control

ultimately parents are responsible for their children

Yeah, let's see you build an empire on fixed hard currency 😉

if tail emission means monero like and doge like forever same reward per block then i'm dead against it.

i also did the math on how to do a smoother curve than the halving cycle and it's complex and getting it wrong would mean forks. i mean, sure, probably such implementations would get fixed but you can't get halving wrong.

so, yeah, fuck tail emission. fuck monero, fuck doge, fuck gold and fuck fiat. and especially fuck monero

You’re going to suffer.

That’s non negotiable.

But are you willing to suffer?

That shift can make all the difference in how you handle what’s in front of you.

Even better do you love your suffering?

Is it the necessary price to fulfill your destiny?

If it is, congrats. You’ve figure out life.

Learn to love your suffering and every scar will be a reminder about life you were brave enough to lead.

Or reject your suffering and suffer anyway in pointless agony for nothing.

Choice is pretty clear.

it is all coming together fam 🫡

I have to stop myself from becoming tech support for friends. Nothing good ever comes from it. I had to cut someone off yesterday because they were becoming toxic and thought they owned my time.

Ԍood morning and pura vida, nostr! It's time to create notes and send zaps! 💜🫂🤙🏻

I didn't do my standard greeting this morning. I just started using Nostr like a psychopath.

Now back to your regularly expected GMs and PVs.

Before I bought bitcoin I spent 5 years being black pilled and defeatist about the economy post GFC.

I was stuck in the same nihilistic delusion that many are still in today.

Basically the belief was that everything was rigged, capitalism was over and nothing I could do was going to change my personal trajectory.

Then one day i had a particularly heavy DMT trip and it shattered those perceptual illusions and left me open to the idea that reality was actually a lot more malleable and full of potential than I had previously considered.

Recognizing that I had the ability to change things, then I found bitcoin.

And what I once saw as an inevitable collapse, I began to see as the greatest opportunity in history. A transfer of wealth and power in history for those who have the courage to seize it.

A way to break the chains of the slave system.

So I went all in, because fuck it…

My delusions weren’t serving me anyway.

Sorry, I don't use Primal much apart from posting podcasts but I thought I would share some of the work we are doing here trying to fix Bedford.

Beyond starting a football club and owning local businesses, I have become active in trying to fix the endless issues in the town.

We have economic issues, in that businesses are under pressure from the economic climate as well as growing government red tape. This is being compounded by a massive rise in anti-social behaviour. We have a plague of addiction issues, with large numbers of crackheads, alcoholics and shoplifters in the town. We have a rise in crime, including assaults on women.

This is not a good situation.

Two months ago I threatened the police, that if they did not fix the issue then I will. During August I am funding a private security initiative in the town, where 10 security guards will be deployed across the town as scarecrows, providing a security blanket for residents and businesses.

We have met with the local police and our activity will be coordinated with them. We are also trying to work with the local council too. I am considering establishing a shadow council in the town, outside of party politics, driving civic action.

Alongside the private security, we are building teams for cleaning, events and marketing to drive economic activity in the town.

I just thought I would share this. Bitcoin world has become a little stale to me, it is time to get out there and do things. The UK is pretty fucked at the moment so it is fight or flight time.

With the impending arrival of our third child coming up we had to go buy a new car yesterday. The way credit scores work is so wild.

i just realized how funny it is that we think turning our phone off will limit exposure to cellphone signals, when your signal bars are just telling you how strong the signal is in the geographic region youre standing in. turning your phone off does nothing to change that.

I hate to sound stupid but can someone please explain what cashu is? Is it like lightning payments? How is it different?

Ben, you spread lies and blatant misinformation stop acting like a victim.

Your engagement source is partly farming antisemetic stereotypes.

You blatanlty post non factual findings as that is what you're looking for.

It comes across to anyone with a brain who has followed you for enough time to get the full scope.

You're not a victim & you shouldn't be surprised that people think you're disgusting.

What does a post-software world look like? Are we heading towards one? Or will we see an explosion of choice?

The more apps I see, the less excited I am about any of them. I can only imagine this becomes more pronounced the more tools we have available to us. 🤔

Thoughts?

It the last couple of weeks I realised that my mother has Narcissic Personality disorder. She is the the subtype covert narcissist.

I was confused all my life and this explains everything.

I think God saved me. It's a miracle that I became who I am.

This applies to sequential modeling but modeling can be dynamic and non linear
