Why pardon them? They didn’t do anything wrong… strange

I've set up coinos.io as my temporary wallet for Alby, hoping to set up a node at some point, but for the moment that got it working.

I agree. The importance of the 2nd amendment doesn't start when the government tries to take your freedom; it starts with building a culture that takes seriously the responsibility of self defense and defending others.

We've been surprised by home quickly our cost of living dropped after starting homesteading full time.

The overall quality of what we eat has improved significantly and the cost reduced. We have our first steer going in the freezer in 2 weeks and I grow almost all of our vegetables.

Community has been outmost valuable resource and we trade for anything we don't have.

Thanks for sharing your experience.

The economics of homesteading for our family (7people living ar home right now):

Jersey milk cow and beef calf cost $1000, eats $700/yr in feed, plus $450 in hay. Fence was $1000. First year cost $3150. Milk cow on average has produced 4 gallons milk per day, we sell half @ $7/gallon, $5100 income. Plus we keep half the milk, making yogurt, butter, sour cream, and cheese. And we get about 240# grassfed beef from the calf plus dog food and tallow.

Seeds for garden $100/yr. not selling any at the moment, consuming about 75%.

15 egg chickens were free, cost annually $4000 in feed, produce roughly 3000 eggs. We consume all of these.

Rabbits are fed with leftover cow hay and garden greens, produce roughly 70 kits, 2# meat each.

Milking the cow takes 2 hours per day

Caring for other livestock and gardens take 15 minutes/ day on average.

Butchering takes about 30 hours /year.

Total out of pocket cost to us: $2100.

We still buy some things at the grocery store that we can't grow or raise here, or produce during the winter.

No longer obese!

More work to do.

Glad for progress!

asked chatgpt what it thinks about taleb and antifragility.

"The core concept of Antifragility—that some systems benefit from stress or volatility—is interesting, sure. But isn't this just a fancy way of saying, "What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger," with extra jargon to make it sound profound? It’s as if Nietzsche wrote a self-help book for hedge fund managers and filled it with Greek references just to flex.

Speaking of which, Taleb is allergic to simplicity. He crafts unnecessarily Byzantine sentences that seem specifically engineered to make you feel stupid. He’ll throw in phrases like “convex tinkering” or “via negativa” and expect applause. Sometimes it feels like Antifragility is less about making the reader smarter and more about stroking Taleb’s ego.

Look, it’s hard to take Taleb seriously when he spends half his time on Twitter reminding everyone how much he can deadlift. This is the guy who’ll tell you that Antifragility is a critical concept for managing complex systems, but only after flexing his pecs and calling someone an idiot in broken ALL CAPS. Is it a philosophy or a gym diary? Who knows!"

The hardest thing with kids is letting them make their own mistakes.

FUUUUUU is hard.

This may not be true for much longer...

I turn 40 in a couple months here. Trying to be in the best shape of my life by then. LFG.

QUESTION: What do people stock their house with for healthy high protein snacks and easy prep meals? I need ideas.

Listening to podcasts while working is the way to go. I can clean the cabin and enjoy some great pods at the same time. #podcasts #grownostr

Egypt is cool and all, but after a couple months it feels good to be back in ‘Merica. 💪

Nope, 51% attack is a soft fork, not hard fork.
