I own a musket for home defense, since that's what the founding fathers intended.

Four ruffians break into my house.

"What the devil?" I exclaim as I grab my powdered wig and Kentucky rifle.

Blow a golf ball sized hole through the first man, he's dead on the spot. Draw my pistol on the second man, miss him entirely because it's smoothbore and it nails the neighbor's dog.

I have to resort to the cannon mounted at the top of the stairs loaded with grape shot, "Tally ho lads!" the grape shot shreds two men in the blast, the sound and shrapnel set off car alarms.

Fix bayonet and charge the last terrified rapscallion. He bleeds out in front of frantic paramedics since triangular bayonet wounds are impossible to stitch up.

Just as the founding fathers intended.

same. i think seeing finite time as finite money helps but right now they all say "i will spend time with family later". they don't ever expect later to never come

#bitcoin #RunToSats

Day 3 of peeking at Bitcoin Twitter. Nostr decided drivechains was dead like a week ago, but because the discussion is heated and toxic, the algorithm keeps shoving it in people's faces. They are STILL arguing about it.

Many #plebs spend so much time continuously given over to various pods and audiobooks while falling down the 🐇 🕳️ that they don’t even realize how many of their own ideas in the swirl are actually emergent and novel.

They’re in there, and if people are given a chance they come to the surface. 🤝

They just need a patient, listening 👂

Ok #nostr - I need your input on your experience with #Bitcoin Meetups. I’m trying to get some local Bitcoiners together and the feedback I’m hearing is that most people don’t feel like they have enough to add to the conversation. If you’ve been to a Bitcoin meet up before, what were the best parts? Was there a “speaker”? Or just a hang session? #asknostr

Just had some tasty burgers on the grill, topped with melted cheese and grilled onions. Next will be my coffee, then a late afternoon potluck with neighbors. What a nice, enjoyable Sunday😊. Hope yall are having a great day too. #grownostr #countrylife

actually LOL'd TY

Good for another 4 years.

Time for some hacking 😁👍

the electrician thought i should do a YouTube channel about Linux and RPi and stuff. to him, being fluent in this stuff is a rare skill. he kind of sat there with his mouth agape the entire time because i was typing all these Linux commands rapidly, from memory. he was also surprised when a desktop environment came up on the RPi. he hadn't quite realised that it's just a little computer. he seems intelligent enough and says he's been playing with Arduino. but it's just that he probably wasn't exposed to all this stuff at an early age like i was. i don't think my skills are so rare. lots of people in the IT industry know how to do this stuff.

The message is perfectly simple, the meaning is clear.

Practically everything that is worth doing is going to take much longer than you expect.

Fuckin Paul Krugman

I'm always early for everything.

That is all 🥴
