This note doesn’t need words. Good job everyone.

Do you know about the lightning network?

First thing I need you to do is read this book:

I watched your video and you’re just stringing together words that don’t make sense.

Glad you are OK.

Beautiful color!

Just got my technicians license. I’m super interested in doing this. How can I help?

If I were president in the 70’s Vietnam wouldn’t have happened or would have happened much differently.

I’ve got a better idea. What if we refuse to support either side politically? We could sell both sides weapons. Then, after they blow each other into the Stone Age we can roll in virtually unopposed, take all the natural resources for ourselves and enslave what’s left of the populations?

I like the way you think. I also like the way you are open to discussion and different perspectives. My response to this comment is to much to put into text. I hope someday to share a bottle of whiskey or smoke a joint with you and have some wonderful conversations. Keep doing what you’re doing. NOSTR needs people like you.

What’s wrong with a barrier to voting? The founding fathers only intended property owners to vote. I would modify that to say that only people with a positive net worth should be allowed to vote. When we give everyone the right to vote they vote themselves benefits at the cost to others. Do you like high taxes? Big government? Loss of freedom due to government interference? That’s what giving everyone the right to vote got you.

How do you control pests? Every time I try to grow indoors I get a MASSIVE aphid infestation. Way too much to control with insecticidal soap.

$40K by Monday! Let’s do it! Buy more sats while it’s still cheap. $100K in 2024!

Even the older sections of the wall weren’t made with mild steel. I agree with you, I cut through steel with my Dewalt all the time. But if you’ve actually been up close to, and looked at the beams, like I have, you would realize that these things are thick and they are made of structural steel. I guess me saying That one couldn’t cut through was an overstatement. It would take all day and go through a bunch of blades though.

Instead of a wall what if we just call a bunch of our troops home and put a soldier every hundred feet with a loaded rifle and said “shoot anybody that tries to cross this line?” The United States would actually end up saving money, its amore effective solution and it could be implemented comparatively quickly to building a wall?

Trump is the best president we’ve had in 170 years. I voted for him twice. That being said he is still a scumbag politician trying to funnel money to his donors… Private contractors that want to build a 2000 mile wall and then get service and maintenance contracts. There are many more intelligent and cost-effective ways than a giant wall stop the open migration that is happening into United States.

This is not Trump’s wall, this is an older portion. It also takes a lot more than a “battery powered reciprocating saw” to cut through that steel beam. I lived along the boarder for years and can tell you anything you want to know about walls, border patrol operations and illegal crossings.

A border wall is a terrible idea. How easy would it be for the government to switch the use of an impenetrable wall from keeping people out to keeping us in? Do you trust the government enough not to do that? I certainly don’t!

My gassifacation projects have only been at the “hobbyist” level. I like the adage “if you have one, you have none, if you have two it will get you through, if you have three… it’s a guarantee.”

I’ve only run a 45cc gas motor off of a 5 gallon bucket gassifacation system. I suppose I could run a dc treadmill motor “backwards” to charge a battery. But I haven’t tried it yet.

I run solar power with a battery backup as my main power source. I can charge from the grid if I need to. That’s one and two. I have a gasoline generator and stockpile of fuel for. That’s three.

My “someday” goal is to scale a gassifacation system to charge my batteries.

All that being said, wind and hydro power require less maintenance than gassifacation. AND, generally speaking, wind and hydropower happen when solar is less abundant. I have a “seasonal creek” in which I plan on testing a small scale hydro generator during my rainy season. I also have an old car alternator that I plan on putting a turbine on to charge batteries with that I haven’t gotten to yet.

Gassifacation is dirty power that requires a lot of maintenance. It’s for nerds like me that like to experiment with. If you’re a nerd I’d like to talk more about it. However, there are many more economical options to create a third tier backup system.

I’ve worked in the real estate industry for a long time and I can’t stop laughing my ass off at the thought that the attackers possibly deleted a bunch of people’s mortgage.

Can you imagine the trickle down effect throughout the mortgage backed security and banking industry!?

This couldn’t happen to a more deserving company/group of people.

I’m gonna go buy more sats.

Stop watching the news Jack. It’s better for your blood pressure.

“Mortgage officers failed to accurately report demographic data for applicants over a period of four years, the CFPB found.

The fine will be paid to the CFPB’s victims relief fund.”

Am I due compensation from the federal government because some third party software vendor forgot to put a race checkbox in the mortgage application program? A bunch of bullshit on all sides.

I agree. It’s supposedly a “decentralized mining pool” I looked at their website yesterday and there was no information other than hype.

I know what you mean. It’s hard to describe. Just as some people can “smell the rain coming” the smell of nature on a cold day definitely triggers something in my senses.
