The recent crackdown on #Bitcoin #privacy tech reminds me of the wave of naturopaths who died in mysterious circumstances before the launch of the #Covid19 program. I think it’s the prelude to the launch of the #CBDC / #DigitalID program. Biden has recently signed an Executive Order on digital assets which discuss both #crypto and CBDC. Soon after federal agencies have been taking the actions that we all know. This tells me that the plan was already ready to go and not a consequence of the EO being signed. IMO, the plan to roll-out the CBDC is also ready to go… I’m not sure how much time we have left until the launch but I’m afraid it’s closer to months than years.

Technically you are right. But Nostr (the notes side) needs to compete with the empires of social media.

You need something unique to even have a chance. Zaps is one of those unique features.

Yes the protocol has so much to offer. But when onboarding new people you need to show them a at least one feature they don’t have on other platforms.

lately ( for like the past year ) most days when i wake up right before i fully become conscious i am in this horrible state of clarity where i see my whole life, my family, women, the world etc. for what they really are ...

then when i fully wake up this awareness goes away and is replaced by awareness of my immediate surroundings instead ...

it is truly torture to be in that state of seeing everything for what it is as clearly i can see my keyboard in front of me right now ...

when i am in that state i literally can't imagine going on like this then 5 minutes later i am fully awake and feel perfectly fine and happy ...

moral of the story - happiness comes from stupidity, distraction and being trapped in the moment

and wisdom leads to suicide

Why is #Monero not on the WEF website?

In a decade, we may witness artificial intelligence taking the helm of nations such as the United States, where the current political landscape often presents voters with unsatisfactory options from both sides of the political spectrum. As AI continues to advance, its potential to make unbiased, data-driven decisions could usher in a new era of governance, where efficiency and rationality become paramount. #AI

funny thing is, I see that now people have one account to be nice and one to be mean.

Today I signed a new contract with my ISP.

2100 megabits per second internet for only 11 euro a month 🤯

Say what you will about Romanians, but fast internet is up there with food, shelter, and home-made alcohol 🍷

How fast is your internet and how much do you pay?

Listen, if you're a fan of flat Earth or anti-vaxx I really don't care. If you're an atheist or a devout Christian I don't really care. If you're a good person and you have a sense of humor, you're my kind of friend.

These corporations and governments are injecting so much divisive propaganda into the world because they realize that we can be bought and sold as individuals, but we can't be bought and sold as a powerful collective.

Unfortunately organized religions have been playing at this for a few millennia as well, especially since they were the original form of government. The first courts humanity knew were churches.

One day, friends. One day we'll be free.

A hard pill to swallow for polite society and yuppies: Just because someone is getting paid to do something, doesn’t mean they’re actually doing something. Many people do nothing and get paid.

Ex. “Digital asset” or “distributed ledger technology” people on the Street and the vulture consulting class at Deloitte and co. They don’t do a damn thing except grift.

so the amazon (rainforest) is also a mason?

Back in 2011, Fed Chair Bernanke told Congress that the Fed's balance sheet would return to its pre-crisis level.

It never did, and now it's far larger than in 2011, let alone pre-crisis levels. And by around 2025 it'll level out and start to head up again. It's going up forever, Laura.

You have to give me 1 life lesson, what would it be

Orwellian new law called the Online Harms Bill C-63, which will give police the power to retroactively search the Internet for ‘hate speech’ violations and arrest offenders, even if the offence occurred before the law existed.
