In principle, no.

Reminder that in a couple of day, we'll be just one year away from what I think will be the Bitcoin Singularity:

There's a Catalan saying for this type of situation: They're pissing on our mouth and say it's just raining. nostr:note1dcxtdq2gd2z3fngek8yfhak4yzwjluuy7hyc780aad9zykgs0fmstvg836

Exclusive images of Larry Fink at his desk thinking about us all while signing the update to the BTC spot ETF application where he names JP MORGAN as BlackRock's authorized participant (the entity who must a quite the BTC for the BTC on BlackRock's behalf, getting a cut in the process, of course).

The cult of Enlightened Despotism. 500 years and going strong.

The current climate hysteria is just the Nth lever those on top of the pyramid come up with to advance the particular iteration they want to deploy on us all this time.

But the underlying religious belief in a small group of self-appointed rational, "science-based", benevolent tyrants centrally planning the world on behalf of the Greater Good ("All for the People, without the People") is the same in today's Europe/US and China as it was in the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany, as it was in France in the 18th century, pre and post Revolution.

What The Fuck.

“As the war between Israel and Hamas rages on, I urge my fellow Americans to remain vigilant, and not fall for any false propaganda that claims people living in Gaza and the West Bank are worthy of human life,”

I urge my fellow Americans #nostriches to put this elderly miserable shit in a priaon with all this fellas.

Not someone who will ever defend Biden, but it's obvious that the man didn't mean it. It's the holes in his brain causing him to make no sense whatsoever.

I have never partaken, but lately I keep wondering, given the constant controversy and animosity between the two BTC mixing systems (that I know of), if I wouldn't just be better off going through XMR on Bisq to get some privacy for my BTC too.

POV caught a couple of <2% trades on Bisq

Any other recommendations? nostr:note1m68yc9rytlc43pygcrm0y0fxdqfmyedp7x8266q2x8jepwn7yxyskewtd7

Thanks! I'm going to take a look. The Sami reference resonates with me.

And this is why BTC is awesome, unbeatable store of value and suitable for very large transactions, and a lousy currency for daily common use. nostr:note1fk0wpr8wfxwh9euzyd990dxdyqlprx0n6vwaj2403j4pyvmv429q243efg

Hey #askNostr I need to buy a web domain. I will use it both for a website and custom email domain through Proton. Privacy-oriented, jurisdictionally-safe is preferred.

Taxation is slavery - full stop. A 50% effective tax rate is not "50% slavery" because freedom is not fractional.

If you don't have a say on 50% of what you make, you don't have a say in what's left because you can't make the same decisions about it that you could and would if you kept the other 50% as well.

About the fallacy of "public services", chattel slavery victims also received "services": they were fed, clothed, housed and even protected against external aggressors and provided with order and dispute resolution methods internally. Some were even taught to read, count and more. All were taught English and evangelized. All "in exchange" for their labor.

A socialist's paradise, in short. nostr:note1jaa58x5d2mw3hueg2qgl627gdsd479lz4ctztpmg75cn88asrcqs0rhxaa

These Palau people do have a flair for drama.
