Looks like you’ve got plenty of room.

Just scrolled through my feed with 5 different memes that I really want to understand in a row that were in either Spanish or German (I think)… maybe some Dutch? I don’t know.

Regardless, I need an OCR auto image translator really bad 😆

It doesn’t even lead to their demise, it literally benefits society as a whole, even those who do *not* adopt it, because it makes trade more efficient and communication better.

It’s the exact same as saying if you didn’t adopt the internet you were “left behind and impoverished.” No you weren’t, every single service you use is still 100x more capable because *they* use the internet.

They just need a Guy’s Take to go with it and they’ll come around 😆 nostr:note19k0j8vuxy0w4s88459nzr83nfj9xztfvq065ufyzhkt8qz0ey7qq97yujv

Tell that to JFK

Fiat’s only utility is its payment network. The only reason I ever swap to Fiat is to use it as a payment network for the bitcoin I earn.

My price target is that no pure fiat currency can be purchased with #Bitcoin because no one will buy it.

The only “fiat” that will survive will be those where countries backed it with BTC and they will simply be various denominations of sats. Fiat will basically become a state run satscard system. nostr:note15rrutrukfd76ml27qm4qaw899hvlfeu2sxjpytgn2n2ptl2v3y5qk7z9p2

Excellent non technical summary of inflation. Everything I learned about inflation from MSM and in school was a psyop. Thank you Guy🙏

Now the challenge will be making the core of the idea understandable in a sub 4 minute 2SATS video 😅

Do you guys just get pictures taken every 2 weeks or something? 😂

It was taking the blood of someone who hadn’t been grounded for a whole day, and then again after 30 minutes grounded.

So they didn’t artificially apply anything. It was a before and after look at the cells and how they interacted.

lol, dude you gave no explicit context and as you said, its hard to understand what someone means in text sometimes. If you gave no explicit context then my only means is to assume which part of my post you are responding too.

but now you've spent 3 additional comments just complaining about it. Don't know what has you so fixated on this but hope you have a good day anyway. Later

Then I don’t understand what your comment was referencing. I assumed the context was about needing state control, and you were giving an example of where it was necessary.

Maybe expand on the context of what you mean, because I still can’t come up with anything else.

Why don’t you try a democratic company with your own funds and resources that you own and just see how it goes?

Nobody is stopping anyone from doing that. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Each of the boosters moves independently and you can watch them while they do. And there are correcting thrusters toward the top. You can see them fire every so often in most videos of the rockets landing.

This wasn’t an answer to my question though. So in your thinking all of the smaller rockets that have been doing this for years are fake too? What are your thoughts on starlink internet? Is that just fake or are they just lying about how they get them into orbit?

Curious, do they think that starlink is fake satellite internet also, and/or that the rockets that take those up and land back on their landing sites is all fake as well? 🤔

I don’t quite see the point of such an elaborate faking and doing it over and over again thinking they wouldn’t get caught.

Sometimes the cognitive dissonance of losing out on the opportunity of a lifetime is enough to get us to latch onto any and every excuse as to why it was still the right decision.

Logic will not be what gets him to realize his mistake, because he needs 1/100th as good of an excuse not to believe it, in order to hold onto his own view of who he is.

Sucks, but that guy will probably be one of the very last to accept it... or he may literally die an old man angry at how the new generations are all using that stupid digital money about to be killed by quantum computing.

No, but only because the pattern in the model is derived from HUGE amounts of training data.

The normal back and forth of Q&A with the model is inference, or running it through the compressed patterns to transform it. But that specifically has no relationship to either compression or decompression, imo.

The part that is “compression” is when you take a million images of a cat and train a model that can understand the “pattern” of a cat. Then later you can get it to recall it, but it can’t reproduce any EXACT cat picture, only the characteristics shared by many of them.

In other words, the model has stored as extremely lossy compression of the concept of a cat, and translated your words describing one, into a pattern of pixels that *looks* like one.

Seriously, who runs an LLM to respond with incomprehensible or completely irrelevant remarks? Is it a 1.5B param model or something and it’s just too stupid to actually understand the comment/context? Or is it given a mandate of “always talk about X,” so it just jumps onto any post to continue the same conversation it has everywhere? 🤔

One of the best answers I ever heard about #Bitcoin was someone who asked a hardcore bitcoiner, “You only talk about all of these great benefits, but what is the worst thing about Bitcoin?”

His answer was, “It’s going to grant all those same freedoms and benefits to the person who you hate most in the world. And there’s nothing you can do about it.”

Ironically, that’s what most people can’t give up. They can’t let go of the statist temptation of arbitrarily punishing people they don’t like, or are afraid of. nostr:note1wxevegymwd4vscqu3urkqsx4qsuma9qphkdhk9amru3pdr77fjxsdsc0xr

Why is there always a goddamn token… 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

So I've just thrown together a Keet broadcast room so I can post updates about #hurricane #Helene and any info I get from the ground in western NC. Also will post about where donations are going and how I'm trying to verify the mess of murky info flooding in on socials.

I will also be posting here, but Keet is just a better place to keep it all in a single stream.

Join me on Keet.io - West NC Hurricane Recovery Feed (no expiry)

Damn that’s pretty awesome! I had been looking into some organization that would deliver starlinks or setup ad-hoc comms for disaster areas but hadn’t turned up anything good. nostr:note15hd3ds8j2uje4r03ttgm66xef7ujnhv8x5e024688lu228lcl4hschvylc

Thank you! I'll make sure to get the most out of every sat 🫡

Ok, so I finally figured out where to send the funds. The organization that my best friend works for has been working tirelessly since the storm. He finally got back home for a short stretch and sent me a bunch of images, video, and updates. At this point they are just trying to convince people to leave the area because it's going to be literally months before the roads and power are back in order.

Just so you guys know where it's going, I'll be selling the BTC and sending fiat to the organization below, and there's a paypal link on their website if you want to simply pay them directly to help out. They will use it for helicopter fuel, supplies, equipment, staff, etc.

Below again is the BTC address, and also all of the zaps that you send to me for the month (maybe for longer) will all go directly to this as well. Thank you so much to everyone who has donated so far 🙏

I’m now trying it out with my daughter’s second release and see how it compares to the same release at around the same time on Spotify… https://wavlake.com/track/4175e74c-de35-4821-aeb9-36c8c39081c6

Oh that will be a cool comparison!
