Sad Swissland is no longer neutral.
Went there last year.
Photos can’t show how big it feels and how the high ceilings influence your perspective on state vs individuals.
However, I must say this kind of buildings exist to project a longer shadow of the state.
For empire level constructions, I value more beautiful bridges, big dams and extensive roads, especially far away from the capital.
This sounds a lot like “leave the money matters to the money experts”.
MEMEnto mori has a negative connotation tho
When Roman consuls/generals paraded on Rome they assigned a guy to whisper him “remember you must die”, so he don’t become too power hungry
Carpe diem is more accurate
The average Europoor wants socialism again, they really do.
We can go back after the famine.
El problema es que el concepto de patria se puede capturar y capitalizar.
En el momento que defines una patria, siempre habrá un grupo que explote el lado tribal humano.
La élite siempre fue internacional, entre los grandes romanos se jactaban de hablar griego.
Mientras que “el pueblo” rara vez se organiza, ni si quiera en el imperio romano uno se “sentía” romano, europeo y mucho menos visigodo.
La religión organizada fue la primera versión del estado nación moderno, una símbolo para unir pueblos y monopolizar la cultura, cuando el segundo mandamiento prohíbe explícitamente rendir culto a símbolos.
La segunda versión fue el estado-nación.
La tercera versión es la unificación final de la cultura con un control único de la narrariva, a veces llamada globalización.
The three main problems with ETH.
1. You can’t run a full node (they even renamed them to archive nodes), so not really decentralized.
2. Too much complexity requires transaction to be computed in a bigger machine, increasing the surface vector exponentially, every month many ETH get stolen this way.
3. Bitcoin exists .
Hear me out.
Stop calling Bitcoin digital gold.
Call gold analog money instead.
Whites kill more in Europe than in America.
Without GUNS.
I never thought forks were that dangerous.
Unskilled pay was $1.25/h back then.
vs
$15/h today.
That’s 125 hours in 1970 vs 1250 hours in 2025.
Yes, but tons of new capital is holding BTC within exchanges and treasury companies.
They will eventually get reck and then price will skyrocket when everyone realizes Bitcoin is scarce.
Just like FTX.
Money is information.
Money is speech.
Creating money out of nothing is a form of narrative control AKA censorship.
All arrows should be colored as information.
Money is speech.
The problem is who controls that speech and therefore the creation of more money.
I guess I’m running Omarchy next, any other suggestions?
I use the term Nazi when someone supports the current popular thing without any doubts or remorse.
- Using coal is bad == Nazi.
- Fats are bad == Nazi.
- Cars are bad == Nazi.
- Metro is good == Nazi.
- Being [insert identity here] is good == Nazi.
- Welfare is good == Nazi.
Boomers will end up with more Bitcoin than many realize.
A GenZ would have to join Bitcoin 8 years earlier and save 2 full years of work to have the same Bitcoin as a boomer will have by selling their real estate now.
They STILL have most of the capital.
Ultimately understanding Bitcoin is more about overcoming fear than any other thing.
How you end up overcoming that fear comes in different colors.
1. You have nothing else to lose.
2. You have the proper experience to test and verify the inner workings of the network yourself.
3. You are somewhat technical and trust the analysis others do.
4. You trust if a systemic failure existed it would be already be exposed or exploited.
5. You understand the monetary part and that removes the need to understand how the network works.
6. You join only ideologically, not with your capital.
More?
They will remove Bitcoin’s capital gain tax to have less friction when selling it.
Spain is very mountainous so the culture is not uniform.
Catalonia and Valencia languages are closer to Italian because sea trade was easier than trading with the rest of the peninsula.
South of France also shared this past, including Occitan a language banned by Paris a few years back.
So, you must stop working to avoid subsidizing your lazy coworkers.
These cities are far from “good places to live”.
Only good as a vacation destiny.
Try working there.
You always forget that the reality about a city being walkable and bicycle focused is that everyone needs to live in the center making a few landowners rich and only affordable to a few.
No, it does not.
Direct democracy is the rule of the mob.
The FED can choose the unthinkable option:
1. Raise rates
2. Keep printing money
A civil war will trigger first
One could argue LN works TOO well and keeps blocks empty, adding FUD to the mix.
Obviously adoption will fill block up with time.
Every year 300.000
young ones leave the country for good.
That’s the revolution.
This shows how innocent most europeans are.
After a week without electricity you can only watch while your bio bananas root.
I guess that’s not fun anymore.
Some Bitcoiners will never get this.
You don’t spend good money, ever.
The better the money the less you want to spend it.
It’s called Gresham's law and it gets pretty obvious when you go to a place like Argentina where people spend local currency and save in stronger dollars.
Bitcoin transforms you into an anti consumption drug addicted.
nowadays high trust societies are consequence of monopoly of violence, generating maleable and subdued groups
Tell me some useful information and I’ll zap you 615 sats.
I’ll determine if it’s useful or not lol 😂
My 2 sats:
1. Bankruptcies are a good thing.
It frees resources to companies that provide value instead of extracting it.
2. Money should have no utility, hoarding “useful” assets removes them from the market, creating supply problems for real world applications.
3. Hoarding an asset with no utility becomes a donation to society by delaying consumption making prices lower to everyone else, Bitcoin makes “capitalism” ethical again.
It’s funny how you “debate”.
Insulting me personally,
calling me uneducated while using Wikipedia widely accepted lies as arguments.
Just like the Swiss so called neutrality.
Just another case of copium severus.
Good luck facing challenges as a country with that attitude.
Does it hurt? I mean breaking the Swiss eco chamber.
Nostr is no place for SOMA consumers, keep taking anti depressant to cope with reality.
BTW, your nice town still has cars, only the ones approved by the state mafia.
