I’m not sure what to do. I have an air gapped Ledger that hasn’t been updated with a substantial amount of currency on it. I could wait for the storm to clear, try to move it to another device hastily….experience has taught me that hasty shifts to unproven technology is not a recipe for success in the crypto space. #ledger #bitcoin

This makes no sense at all. Plentiful resources have existed for first world cultures for less than 100 years. This is a literal blink in evolutionary chronology.

Block, ticker SQ up 36% in the last three months. Jack, quietly striking success again. BITO and MSTR both up as well. Fiat is still a necessity. Get Robinhood and make some easy spending money. #investing #stocks

I aspire to not be the low hanging fruit. I use a VPN on my devices, I utilize encrypted email and file transfer. I’m not trading in military secrets, and I recognize that probably some entity somewhere could demolish all my efforts in seconds given adequate provocation. I try to support obsfucation technology, TOR, etc both financially and with bandwidth. If you don’t encrypt from your router, your ISP and others can literally see everything you do online and the targeted advertising is creepy. I like my adds on YouTube to be in a foreign language. Not only is it interesting, but it makes me feel like I’m making the right moves with OPSEC. A step further might be utilizing a VM for windows in a Linux server base machine with hard drives encrypted with LUKS or Veracrypt. I think we all have a responsibility to make surveillance as difficult as is reasonable given resources and circumstance.

Displaced people with alternative lifestyles shouldn’t have to hide like criminals.

Smaller realities are simple and easy to maintain too. I have more time when I’m traveling because nearly everything is use and dispose. Time to ponder, time to feel, time to look, actually see, and absorb the reality we all inhabit. Right now it is largely discouraging unfortunately.

Thank you, I’m preparing to make the GrapheneOS jump.

I’ve read about a hacking convention in Las Vegas, I’ve heard that anyone in the know brings a notebook and a pencil. All the devices stay home. So much for the illusion of security.

What client do people running GrapheneOS prefer? #nostr #grapheneos

Why no lightening address? I’d like to send you some appreciating funds. Maybe the future will be different. I hope so. Do you mind telling me a little more about your day to day? #bitcoin

I know. I travel a lot and see local laws making it unlawful to sleep in vehicles. I wonder how that applies to truck drivers? Oh! I know, the bourgeoisie see them as useful so they don’t apply the law to them. It’s wrong. In a pinch a gallon size ziplock bag is pretty handy and easy to put in a rest area trash can. I’d rather do that than be treated like a criminal by some millennial working at Starbucks because I didn’t want to buy a coffee at five in the afternoon but needed the bathroom code. She’d work a year to pay my expenses for a month, but she sure knows how to make a fella feel sub-human.

Some other things to remember, panels at different voltages, ie. shade and sun will feed power from one into the other if you don’t separate them with diodes. Some panels have them built in, but most don’t. I found 15A MC4 diodes on EBay. Also, cooler panels make more power in the same sun. Some people go for a SE facing array because the local atmosphere helps keep the panels cool in the morning sun. Even a partially shaded panel can affect the overall production negatively.

More and more people every day. I think relaxed regulations about living in an RV on land you own would be really helpful to many folks. #RV

So how is it that my feed will progressively include increasing amounts of obvious bots and then suddenly there are none? Is this node operator moderation? Censorship? #nostr

Yeah, it’s fun and relaxing until it crawls on top of you and doesn’t let you up for air. Moderation is possible if you can walk the tightrope and not fall off into addiction.
