Dude, after 30 years of sustained debt reduction since WW2, Reagan broke into the Treasury and went 
Anybody having issues with nostr:npub13myx4j0pp9uenpjjq68wdvqzywuwxfj64welu28mdvaku222mjtqzqv3qk ? Haven't been able to load the website since yesterday, even though nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm seems to be signed in.
As a savings technology, yes. That's how we use it in the West already.
Yeah, it's the same everywhere, even in many developing countries really. The current banking system has solved the payment "problem" very effectively.
The only use case left would be as an anonymous peer to peer payment system when (it's a when, not an if) cash is banned. Then we can talk about it again. But in any case, 99.99% of the people don't care about anonymously paying for their latte.
Hard pill to swallow: in the developed world, as long as we continued to have cash, there simply is no use case for BTC as a means of payment.
Sorry, but I will never stop saying it.

The "safe space" mindset is trash and only leads to censorship and discord. The solution against harassment and incivility is not to put the burden of guessing what hurts your feelings on devs or relay owners, but to demand that they give each individual user the tools to do the work by themselves.
As I said in my other comment, muting seems insufficient, so I think it's legitimate to ask them to give users the ability to effectively block other users from following them or seeing their content. That's where it stops.
You can mute people so you stop seeing their shit, but you cannot block them so they stop seeing yours. I think blocking is a necessary feature that makes censorship unnecessary to a very large extent.
That's because woke and right are the same.

Well that's the problem. The woke (remember the label started as a self-denominator, it wasn't given by opponents, just made into a parody) are the most intolerant group of people.
They hold radically hateful views of those who disagree with them and don't contemplate the idea of just let everyone be and do whatever the hell they want as long as they don't harm others. The excuse of course is that "being" a certain way is already an offense and an attack on them, so there's no escape from the hate.
I argue that in the end they are the other side of the coin of their Evangelical parents. They've been raised in an equally intolerant environment, and they react against it, but with the same mindset.
I have the bridges to Mastodon and Bluesky on, and it's WILD. The most stereotypically deranged woke nazis, crazier than ever.
You don't like Wise? I operate in multiple currencies seamlessly and with unbeatable costs, it's the best way to take advantage of the different liquidities among pairs, precisely. Bisq is very heavy EUR-BTC, but I do trades in USD and have even done some in JPY ane SGD
You'te going to have to stand in front of one to figure it out anyway, because each company has its policies. Where I live, I've got half a dozen BTC shops and ATMs within walking distance.
I haven't used any this last couple of years but they used to be non KYC (but still would ask for a phone number).
8-10% premium, so I stopped using them and moved on to Bisq anyway.
I despise the concept and practice of "national teams" in sports, at all levels.
Well, with team sports, yes, I hate it but I guess I could rationalize it because making up a team based on such an arbitrary elegibility criterion as one's citizenship is absurd, but not too far from a regular professional club/team.
With individual sports, I find competing under a "national" flag outright disgusting.

I am both anti-right and anti-left, precisely because I am an anarchist-leaning libertarian. That's exactly what I'm pointing out.
Lots of conservatives posing as libertarians today. They will be weeded out, just like many "progressives" passing as libertarians were weeded out last time.
You guys watching on Zap.stream? I am, but not sure what the delay is. I hear my stupid neighbors yelling but it doesn't match the moves I see on my screen xD
Oh apparently it's Spain vs France tonight playing the Eurocup,
My my. Who do I want to lose today?
