Can the US apply export controls to an open source project?

The real skitzo take is that both cancer and autism and many other diseases (such as homosexuality) are actually caused by parasites. Specifically, intestinal worms.

I have a wild mexican plum on my property and I looked it up and the leaves are edible so looks like I have an additional salad green. It unfortunately doesn't produce fruit, I suspect not enough sun. Regardless there is so much abundance all around once you explore outside the programmed box.

This guy is absolutely everywhere in UK media and public conversation lol. Does anyone outside of the UK know who he is?

Tree Crops by Russell Smith is an interesting read and it's public domain.

Carrot-Turmeric Wrap

(slightly sweet and spicy, curry-like)

Ingredients:

330 g chopped carrots (can be substituted or combined with other root vegetables)

430 g large sweet onion

20 g fresh ginger

10 g fresh turmeric root

75 g oil-free raisins

3 cloves of garlic

30 g tahini (sesame paste)

½ tsp cumin

500 ml water

Blend everything until smooth.

Once blended, add:

2 tbsp freshly ground flaxseeds and

2 tbsp psyllium husk powder

Briefly blend again using the pulse function at the highest speed (2 x 3 seconds). Be careful! If blended too long or too slowly, lumps may form.

Spread on a silicone mat around 3mm thick.

Important: Do not flip the wrap while dehydrating! It should easily peel off the silicone mat without any soft or wet spots. I dehydrate it at below 42°C (107°F) for 18–24 hours. If spread thicker, it will take longer to dry.

Have fun trying it out 🤩

⚡️💬 Not too long ago, a single salary was enough to provide a house, a car, and a comfortable life for an entire family. But an economic upheaval swept away this reality, relegating it to a distant memory.

Feminism has been promoted as a movement for "women's empowerment." Yet, upon closer inspection, who truly benefited when women joined the workforce en masse?

➡️ Governments doubled their tax revenues, now taxing two incomes per household instead of one.

➡️ Families were forced to adapt their lifestyles: a single paycheck was no longer sufficient, and two became necessary to keep up with soaring costs.

The result? What was presented as a "choice" turned into a necessity.

The once-prosperous middle class found itself chained to financial dependence on two incomes.

➡️ In the 1970s, a house cost two to three times the average annual salary. Since the 2000s, this ratio has exploded, reaching seven to ten times income.

➡️ Homeownership, once a pillar of the middle class, has become a mirage for many.

➡️ Far from becoming wealthier, families have become trapped in an endless cycle of debt.

And what about the children?

With both parents working, their education has been delegated:

➡️ Public schools and screens have taken over, replacing family influence with that of institutions and media.

➡️ Young minds have been shaped by a system that prepared them to accept this new normal, often at the expense of the values taught by their parents.

The verdict is clear: a doubling of tax revenues for the state, a generation of children raised by the state, weakened family stability, and plummeting parental authority.

To mask this reality, families have been sold an illusion of happiness through rampant consumerism.

➡️ Credit cards, bank loans, and overpriced vacations have been elevated to symbols of fulfillment.

➡️ Rather than building lasting wealth, households have sunk deeper into debt, working ever harder to project an appearance of success.

Meanwhile, the real winners have been rubbing their hands together:

➡️ Banks have turned generations into lifelong debt slaves.

➡️ Governments have seen their coffers fill up thanks to doubled taxation.

➡️ Real estate investors, primarily from the boomer generation, have driven up property prices, making homeownership unattainable for most new generations.

Thus, while families exhaust themselves in a never-ending race for a dream always out of reach, the elites thrive.

Who really won? The answer is obvious. #Asknostr

The boomers were an absolute disaster of a generation.

Stood for nothing, fell for everything.

If you’re a boomer who’s mad at this sentiment spare me.

I don’t want to hear a word from anyone who’s mess I have to clean up.

That is copy I use too have

25 books in 2025 was my goal for #bookstr. I had a fully planned and oversubscribed list coming into the new year but something in the aether told me to put this one to the top and all I can say is it was the best decision.

Critical Path was Buckminster Fuller’s magnum opus, written when he was 85, it’s seemingly the writings of a time-travelling Bitcoiner and the most important thing I’ve read in more than a decade.

A compilation of his ideas and concepts spanning 50 years of work, his completely unique philosophy, an optimism our world today sorely lacks, and a full outline of his view for progressing humanity by doing more with less based on material science.

@Gigi recently mentioned we were promised flying cars and I noted millenials and younger weren’t promised shit.

Well Fuller in his day promised much more, designed it, prototyped it, built what he could and told fantastic tales which could align people to progress along his futuristic way - we need Buckminster Fuller in 2025!

A few Bitcoiners have posted clips of him discussing energy and a single global accounting system (see images) going back to 1967 but I’ve not seen any review this book.

It’s simply phenomenal. I can’t attest to the veracity of all of it, I will have to dig some rabbitholes and definitely re-read it again in a year but if even 30% holds up then every Bitcoiner ought read it for that alone.

Fuller articulates a worldview where humanity stops fucking around, stops letting parasites control things, focusses on sharing the most important information to build the best technologies to do more with less and raise QoL standards for all.

@ODELL managed to meme Mandibles to the fore for Bitcoiners - if ever there was a book all Bitcoiners should read; THIS IS IT.

You won’t agree with all of it, the terminology may be a bit dated, but you will be interested throughout and amazed at his foresight 45 years ago, and hopefully motivated as I am that you too can just do things like Bucky the OG did and the world can change for the better.
