NPCs are those who are controlled, in body and mind, by the gamemaster. Who are the gamemaster but big gov't, big tech, big finance, and big business?
If is the love of money that is the root of all kinds of evil, and what is implied is the love of money is as opposed to love of God and neighbor.

Nice idea!
I thought about this possibility (exporting a gif) but this would have overly complicated the retrieval process with a custom smarphone application. Like this: https://github.com/divan/txqr
Maybe for the 2024 version :)
This is pretty cool!
Today I shill an old project of mine, unrelated to Nostr: https://github.com/dtonon/papiro
Papiro is a very simple tool for storing any data in physical form by printing qrcodes on one or more pages. I created it a couple of years ago for a personal need; maybe it can be useful to you too to improve your backup strategy. Try it :)
Why QR Codes on paper?Because paper seems the most resilient and cost-effective storage medium on earth, at least for low volume data, and QR Codes have an interesting error-checking system. So it is a nice backup solution to pair with digital ones.
Is it possible to etch a QR into glass? That would be more fire resistant and wouldn't age at all.

You are the first people to actually talk like me about money and business!
I have two papers I'd like to discuss or share with you if you're interested.
Oh my gosh! That's a good one 🤣
Yes. This is an opportunity to maximize satisfaction and not attention. The reason someone wants social media it's to find and develop connections with like minded people, stay in-the-know, relax, and discover. In order to fulfill that rather than only offering s convincing promise of such will require much thinning and effort.

We don't have private healthcare in the sense that the market is composed of free and private companies. They may only be called private in the sense that the public sector doesn't officially claim ownership, but they're in control. Pick your poison: long waits or 15-20% of your income.
Agreed. Crony capitalism, what we nearly entirely have in the US, is only technically short of fascism in that the government doesn't claim ownership, but the private and public sectors are bought and paid for by the same group of extremely powerful people.
The government being their fingers in the mix always is ruinous to competition and progress, and we see in healthcare, finance, and education especially.
It's not a symptom of the free market but what happens as a market slowly becomes less and less free offer the decades.
I'm not an anarchist or libertarian, but you could accurately describe me as a Thomistic minarchist.
Heyo! Sound like something I can do
Real estate only works so well because of fractional reserve lending. Once that goes away, they're getting rekt (mostly).
People mistake this to be a consequence of the free market. This is specifically crony capitalism. The insurance companies, hospitals, CDC/FDA, and big pharma are all working together to squash competition and keep money inside their system. The market for healthcare is far from free.
Big gov't doesn't care about the pet health industry because the money's not in it, so they have no motivation to ruin it.
The issue is "guaranteed by the state". Now, regulated by the state and guaranteed by a decentralized banking network is better and how things used to work. Gold backed notes are easier to transport and exchange than gold bricks and bullion, so it's a cool technology, but it requires trust which can't scale to nation sized states.
Bitcoin is a better technology not only because people no longer must trust each other but that they already don't. If people can be trusted, Bitcoin wouldn't be as necessary. I say "as necessary" because giving opportunity to violate the trust is never a good idea.
ASICs for Nostr PoW could definitely be a thing. Unless I'm wrong, relays are just big caches for data, like a CDN, with some data management.
