Learn to use bitcoin privately, the information is out there
Or I could probably get a King Air for a good rate, maybe even free (ish)
The final, most perfect iteration of Al Mooney’s creation: the M20R Ovation. But if someone wants to rent a vision jet or a challenger, LFG
I can’t speak for others, only myself. If someone has intriguing ideas, I listen. If I recommend someone listen to Saifedean or Saylor, or nostr:npub1a2cww4kn9wqte4ry70vyfwqyqvpswksna27rtxd8vty6c74era8sdcw83a it’s because I think incorporating some of their ideas to shape your perception of reality, can make your life better. It’s not because I worship them, I just appreciate the ideas they have to offer.
I can only speak for myself, but I don’t worship any other people. Some people have very interesting ideas, regularly, and I find it interesting to periodically listen to them, expecting another interesting idea.
It’s like turbocharged learning, not hero/guru/whatever worship. I cherry pick the ideas from different people and make my own understanding of reality. Just because Saylor has things half wrong doesn’t mean all his ideas are wrong. I align with Ammous’ ideas the most, probably 90%…but never 100% with anyone. The more good ideas someone has, the more attention I pay.
Depends on the person. They need agency, curiosity, humility, and intelligence. Many of my coworkers fit this profile, and I have been fairly successful in orange pilling (not just a few sats…buying a whole coin or more each).
Also it helps to start with the problem: government money and banking - and it helps if they have at least a basic understanding of how these actually work.
Agreed. Agriculture was a blessing and a curse. It allowed larger civilizations and more cooperation but: we not only domesticated plants and animals; we domesticated ourselves. Weaker bodies, weaker minds, lower testosterone, than our hunter ancestors.

Activist reacts to the election: "The most effective form of protest is masking up" 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
Ok…surely this is satire, right?
Well said…
I would add that the critics of bitcoin that see early adopters as unjustly wealthier, suffer from a scarcity, vs abundance mindset.
None of this is zero-sum. We are all going to be better off financially, and more free. Also I think this is an artifact of our fiat times, where very wealthy people can live as free men, while the rest of us are constantly under threat by the state, our employer, our neighbors…having means allows you to tell everyone else to fuck off. Having money is just a proxy for level of freedom in todays society.
They can squeeze in some tight spaces. Maybe he was tracking a mouse!
Crows don’t really go after snakes. They like eggs, and stuff they don’t have to fight too hard for. They like to group up (into a “murder” 🤣) so they can gang up on and chase their main predators away: hawks and owls. If you hear a bunch of crows calling to each other excitedly 9/10 times they have located a hawk and are calling in the cavalry!
Yep, all he wanted to do was make research funded by the US taxpayer, accessible to the US taxpayer…
Fuck these parasites
Bitcoin broke a lot of sci-fi novels for me: frozen accounts and permissioned money - things I know will not exist, even in the not too distant future.
Lyn: this is going to be a bellwether work of fiction, and any advanced civilization I can think of is going to use something like bitcoin.
I don’t even know what the story is, but I know I want to read it!
