Committed to building a world where compassion and equality thrive, because every voice matters and everyone deserves a fair share 🌎

When I say I want a cyber-futurist dream world of decentralization and data ownership… I don’t want to live in the fucking matrix lol. That’s not freedom.

Exoteric machines - esoteric machines.

They say the computer is an improved form of typewriter. Not a bit of it. I collude with my typewriter, but the relationship is otherwise clear and distant. I know it is a machine; it knows it is a machine. There is nothing here of the interface, verging on biological confusion, between a computer thinking it is a brain and me thinking I am a computer.

The same familiarity with good old television, where I was and remained a spectator. It was an esoteric machine, whose status as machine I respected. Nothing there of all these screens and interactive devices, including the 'smart' car of the future and the 'smart' house. Even the mobile phone, that incrustation of the network in your head, even the skateboard and rollerblades - mobility aids - are of a quite different generation from the good old static telephone or the velocipedic machine. New manners and a new morality are emerging as a result of this organic confusion between man and his prostheses - a confusion which puts an end to the instrumental pact and the integrity of the machine itself.

I pride myself on discovering new unsolved mysteries of the universe. Humans aren’t meant to know so much.

The irony is not lost haha.

Random but I’m so lost on how to make custom zaps. I have wallet of Satoshi and it blocks me from editing the amount as anything other than my default for my client. Just a client/wallet quirk?

Want to be cute and beautiful and sexy even if I’m bald and have a beard 😔

It’s hard feeling feminine and looking masculine

That’s why we get high cuz you never know, when we gonna go 😢

Need to get my skills and actions up. I’m big on encryption knowledge and threat modeling. Hopefully it’s a good start.

The more I know about ai facial recognition the less safe I feel on the streets tho.
