Man is a wolf to man

William Blake, in 1790, tried to define the mechanisms of oppression and limitation of the human personality. He observed that the State chartered corporations, licensed that it used false science, devious moralizing and religion, and illiteracy to create a culture of obedient drudgery. Commercial interests, he pointed out, distorted and degraded human life, art, and science.

mobile there is no clear best, there are a bunch of good wallets with different tradeoffs

my favorite mobile on-chain wallet is samourai, but that is android only, without lightning support

other good options:

muun - extremely easy to use - https://werunbtc.com/muun

phoenix - great for lightning payments - https://werunbtc.com/phoenix

bluewallet - many features, easy to connect to your own node, can be used with multisig

breez - similar to phoenix, great for lightning, with a slick point of sale mode

zeus - the best way to use your own lightning node

blixt - great for lightning

nunchuk - nfc support so works well with tapsigners, easy multisig, iOS version is closed source

I expect many Bitcoiners use GrapheneOS, and there are some eg Muun that cannot operate on Graphene due to requiring Google services. So for GrapheneOS users Samurai wallet is one of the only options, so far.

Agreed, an analogy would be that a rainforest is far more than its lumber content. It is a layed and complex system of meandering energy flows.

If the human spirit and natural instinct pulls you toward something due to its "glowing veracity" for example, than it is a sign of value.

The goal is to create a qualitatative economy rather than a quantitative (extractive only) one, then these varied and useful applications must sprout and grow and increase complexity.

Professor Mike McCulloch's theory of quantised inertia (QI) looks like the most exciting thing in physics to me

It also sits within BItcoiners frame that it does not get adopted because fiat physics requires only theories that never get proven, yet require ever more/larger detector experiments...

One drop of truth can dissolve the entire world

Absolutely, taking your bitcoin keys with you strengthens all those brothers who hold the same values as you do, which are eternal, transcendant principles

"If you strike me down, I will become more powerful than you can possibly imagine"

Once you've aquired it you've already won in a way

The hope and joy of both Nostr and Bitcoin set my lungs and heart pounding

The survival of any system depends on the delusion of its participants, the exceptions being mother Nature and Bitcoin, because Bitcoin *is* Nature

Order enables existence

Chaos enables evolution

Time and the present is the strained tension between them

We search for simpler rules that explain more things

There is no line between physics, chemistry, biology and psychology, other than the division and concepts in your own head.

It's all one thing; shift to seeing the universe as biology, instead of physics, and see how "it maek u feel?"

Concentrate on deepening and extending a strategic position rather than broadening and ultimately compromising it

Pseudonymous accounts are the new Straussian philosophers, but instead of sharing their names and hiding the truth, we hide our names, but share the truth

Bitcoin is the unstoppable force that forges Indo-European values into an immovable object

The foundation solid enough upon which the Superman may stand and strike down the undifferentiated yeast life; the lightning born from the dark cloud of mankind

Value is a "fuel" for the burning fire that is conscious life, and everything else

Agitation, craving, thirst leads us to seek this fuel (value) via the will, leading to an endless process of self sustaining combustion

Bitcoin is a digital life form, a fire just like everything else
