Dick is still kicking and will NEVER sell out as long as he is alive. I went to school with one of the daughters (Debby) she and three sisters basically run the company today. I doubt that generation will sell out either.

Dick is the salt of the earth, met him a time or two in high school. A good friend visited the brewery a few years back. He told Dick about me, Dick went and got a metal Yuengling sign from the gift shop, signed it and gave it to my friend to bring to me.

He is an incredibly honorable man from an honorable family. People think he inherited the brewery, he didn't. It was on the verge of failing in the 80s but he believed in it and approached his dad with a plan. The old man was tired, said, go to the bank and get a loan and buy it from me. Dick borrowed 4 million dollars, took all the risk on his shoulders and made Yuengling into a billion dollar company in 15 years.

He is getting older now but 5 years back was still the guy that turned on and off the lights at the PA brewery HQ every day. And we are talking a billionaire CEO that when a stranger (my friend) visited the brewery and asked, "does Dick still come into the office" the response was let me go get him. He came out and spoke to my buddy for almost an hour. Then gave him the sign for me. I had not spoken to the man in about 30 years at that point and was a teenager when I did. I think that says it all.

Where else does a person walk into a multibillion dollar company, ask about the CEO and simply be told, wait I will go get him?

While I don't rah rah Trump, Dick also donated to the Trump campaign in 2016 and when the woke came after him, his entire response was, "people that drink a beer like Yuengling don't care, so why should I"?

"The Best Way to Boycott Bud Light is with a Yuengling Flight"

Thinking out loud here, if someone had an iPhone and felt they needed it for any reason as their phone. Say it was provided by an employer.

Could they in theory keep it, get an android phone, not sim it, and use it on their network and if they wanted to use it mobile just tether to the iPhone.

In this way have a small mobile device that is in theory not trackable at all?

Flaws in this system?

How do I recognize a bot? And how do I block it?

I am all for anyone and everyone using Nostr, but that doesn't mean I need to listen to them.

Shit coin shills = block ✅

Leftist loons = block ✅

Right wing loons = block ✅

Stalker type trolls = block ✅

Dead horse beaters = block ✅

That list will grow as we #grownostr and I am fine with it. I don't begrudge these people the right to speak I just don't have time to be bothered with their bullshit. 💩 I know some are bothered by this but I think we should all take this approach with our own BS detectors.

Signal > Noise = ⏰ Saved

If you want to spend your time debating these people, trying to convert them, what have you, my you be blessed in said fool's errand. I've learned over the years, our dashes wear out. At 50 I only have time to grow, not try to drag anyone against their will toward growth.

If you either purchase or eat this, you are beyond stupid.

I had an interesting idea about show production and AI use. What would y'all think of a podcast a week for say 5-6 weeks where it is just me but all the questions are generated by AI. I'd get really specific on the prompts to make it very interesting but just a surface test was pretty cool.

I prompted ChatGPT with "Give me 8 questions to ask jack spirko about the keto and carnivore diets on a podcast". I figure I could go into 6 of my core topics and see what comes of it.

It responded with these questions on the keto/carnivore qestion....

1-Can you explain the basic principles and benefits of the ketogenic diet for our listeners who may be unfamiliar with it?

2-The carnivore diet has gained popularity in recent years. What led you to explore this approach, and how does it differ from other dietary approaches?

3-Both the keto and carnivore diets involve limiting carbohydrates. Can you explain the metabolic changes that occur in the body when we reduce carbohydrate intake and rely more on fats or proteins for fuel?

4-Some critics argue that the keto and carnivore diets may be unsustainable or lacking in certain nutrients. How would you address these concerns and what steps can individuals take to ensure they meet their nutritional needs while following these diets?

5-Many people are interested in these diets for weight loss. Can you discuss the mechanisms by which the keto and carnivore diets can lead to weight loss, and any tips for optimizing weight loss success?

6-Some individuals report experiencing increased mental clarity and improved focus on the keto or carnivore diets. Can you shed some light on the potential cognitive benefits of these dietary approaches?

7-Both diets often involve a shift in mindset and lifestyle. How can individuals navigate social situations or dining out while adhering to these dietary patterns, and what are some practical tips for staying consistent?

8-While these diets have shown promising results for many, they may not be suitable for everyone. Are there any specific contraindications or considerations individuals should be aware of before starting the keto or carnivore diets?

Thoughts welcome including negative ones.

Why the Elite & Government Hate Bitcoin - It Isn't What You Think

Inflation is not a defect in their system it is a necessary component. They want you to risk your earnings in stocks, bonds, etc.

The billionaire class runs on debt not income, that is why they pay no taxes in reality vs. cash flow. To do this there must be fiat casinos. Stock markets, bonds (corporate & government), etc. Again for their system to work for them as designed these casinos must exist.

They are the house, you are the customer getting 5 watered down "free" well drinks while losing half your paycheck. I mean you didn't think when you said, "Jack & Coke" to the pretty waitress you really got Jack Daniels, did you?

Now what if money was hard, what if you could save your money and it would buy more vs. less across time. Would you play the game and take the risk? May be a little, but not all in like most.

99% of Americans spend or invest 100% of their money. And those investments are almost exclusively 401ks jammed into ETFs and Mutual Funds run by oligarchs. Most people have less than 2 weeks in cash on hand at any time. (one paycheck from poverty) no matter how well they live.

When you buy #bitcoin it isn't that it is a threat to fiat, that is small time.

No, it is a threat to the fiat casinos, that is what they really hate. Your money is not in their system any longer. They can't use it, leverage it, borrow against it, create options with it, make hedge funds against it.

It is gone from their world and the threat to their world is bigger than they realize and bigger than most bitcoiners realize as well.

Stack accordingly!
