The dildo of consequences rarely arrives lubed.

That’s mechanical stuff. And even related to war at times. That’s why money works. Proof of work. You’re talking about why Bitcoin as a network is successful, which is very separate from individual social signaling.

Individuals signal status to each other socially on numerous metrics, based on gender and skillset and other priorities.

But a common trend is that focusing on the short term stuff, like beauty, ego, possessions, and so forth is very ephemeral. It feels good in the moment but it doesn’t contribute much long-term. Much of that is instinctively geared toward mate acquisition but many people get locked into it too much. We can apply our self awareness to escape that loop.

In contrast, focusing on things like signaling your integrity to others through actions, your honesty, your generosity, your competence at your craft, your wisdom and helpfulness from experience- that’s what contributes a lot of deep satisfaction long-term.

That’s the point of the post.

"Technically speaking, #Bitcoin is an international power competition between drone swarms. Instead of having machines compete against each other using kinetic power in the air, land, sea, or space domains, Bitcoin’s machines are placed on a rack and they compete against each other using electric power in the cyber domain. It’s the same game, but in a different domain – a domain that doesn’t risk nuclear annihilation and doesn’t appear to be stalemated."

Because miners physically compete to establish dominance over ledger writing authority. Worth noting physical power competition is highly egalitarian, noble, and virtuous. Especially when it's non-lethal like Bitcoin is.

Hmm.. bitcoin is literally a physical-power-based dominance hierarchy.

Every hash matters!

Home miners across the globe will hold more power collectively than corporations with an over expanded debt based strategies.

#Bitaxe is anarchy. Open source #Bitcoin mining will win. Hash rate decentralization will be achieved.

HELP! I have 30 lbs of potatoes in milk crates. What do? How can I store these? I don't have a pressure canner 🫠

TECHNICALLY SPEAKING THE BRAZIL X BAN IS TRIVIAL TO CIRCUMVENT.

THAT IS MOSTLY IRRELEVANT.

WILL LIKELY STILL BE EFFECTIVE AT SILENCING BRAZILIANS WITH LARGE AUDIENCES. LARGE KNOWN X ACCOUNTS. THEY WILL RISK PUNISHMENT IF THEY POST.

NOSTR DOES NOT FIX THAT.

The fine for people using VPNs to access it is crazy.

And the judge really does look like a comic book villain.

Kamala Harris is pretty much the expert at speaking the highest amount of words possible, while at the same time, saying very little.

I'm pretty sure she has put effort into developing this "talent". It's astonishing and exhausting watching how effortlessly she does it. #NotaCompliment
