I’m for the pirate LLMs

Boys, we’re in business

On my Lilygo T-Echo in Vienna, Austria, #meshtastic picked up dozens of nodes I’ve never seen before

They would be “commercializing” part of the band, meaning that it would be reserved only for certain license holders, usually a private company (for example a GPS firm) or some government or military use.

The unlicensed band allows people to connect nodes together at a reasonable frequency that can be achieved with our small Meshtastic devices without mega antennas

For the first time in decades, we finally have the potential to reverse ONEROUS financial surveillance imposed on US bank customers by the federal gov’t, by repealing the Bank Secrecy Act, requiring a warrant for all bank info searches, and outlawing CBDCs forever.

Happy to support the Saving Privacy Act by Sens. Mike Lee and Rick Scott.

My interview was syndicated in 30+ normie local TV affiliates tonight. Forgive my terrible sound. Hotel interviews never perfect

super happy to see Das Delicious take off! Can't make it tonight as I have dad duties, but PROSST AN ALLE

Georgia is a small country of 2 million people. It's also about which "bloc" do they want to tie their economy to and their institutions.

The EU offers more opportunities for trade, education, and travel, wheraas Russia is a petrostate that is incredibly brutal domestically without much economic or social freedom.

Again, Georgia had a libertarian revolution and was way more freedom oriented than Europe.

the EU has massive problems. But for most young people, it's a better path to have trade and travel with European countries than only the Russian bloc

Sad to see what’s happening in the Republic of #Georgia (Sakartvelo 🇬🇪💪).

I see many large bird app accounts talk about a US-imposed “color revolution” and other kinds of insanity who know nothing about the country but want to simp for Russian interests.

It was obviously a sham election.

Anyone who’s been to Georgia understands what’s at stake and just how different it is. Its young people are some of the most libertarian and capitalistic because it’s burned in their anti-Soviet mentality. Freedom is the counterculture.

In the late 1990s and through the early 2000s, the country was a libertarian paradise: low taxes, fast innovation, no corruption, and the ability to open businesses and trade within minutes. Most of the government ministers were Hayekians who quoted Milton Friedman and even Murray Rothbard. Free market reforms were quickly imposed and raised the standard of living lightning fast.

Bitcoin mining was already a big industry by 2014-2015, and they had a huge entrepreneurial class building crypto tools.

In the last decade, Russian money and influence has streamed in and slowly eroded all these market reforms to make it a client state of Putin.

A lot of the young people I know there want to tie their fate to the EU not because Europe is some promise land, but because it’s better than being a conduit for Russian bankers and mobsters.

My meat delivery guy messaged me in a panic last night and apologized...since my order could only arrive tomorrow rather than today.

Customer service FTW!

"But though this technique of creating an order is indispensable for organizing the institutions of government and all the enterprises and households which form the elements of the order of society as a whole, it is wholly inadequate for bringing about the infinitely more complex overall order.

We have it in our power to assure that such an overall order will form itself and will possess certain desirable general characteristics, but only if we do not attempt to control the detail of that order.

But we jettison that power and deprive ourselves of the possibility of achieving that abstract order of the whole, if we insist on placing particular pieces into the place we wish them to occupy.

It is the condition of the formation of this abstract order that we leave the concrete and particular details to the separate individuals and bind them only by general and abstract rules.

If we do not provide this condition but restrict the capacity of the individuals to adjust themselves to the particular circumstances known only to them, we destroy the forces making for a spontaneous overall order and are forced to replace them by deliberate arrangement which, though it gives us greater control over detail, restricts the range over which we can hope to achieve a coherent order."

Einen schönen #Nationalfeiertag! 🇦🇹

Of course we all dream of this

Picked up a new node while I’m in Bratislava. Hell yes!

Just really need to tweak the MQTT config as my device hasn’t popped up on there yet
