I cannot think of a more appropriate illustration of the state of our civilization today.

To my fellow Fathers (yes I meant to capitalize that):

Find the beauty in the annoying phases... they are just phases. Soon they won't wake you up at 5 am, cuddle up next to you because they had a bad dream, or experience your seemingly god-like protective strength when you effortlessly pluck them from imminent danger of their own making.

And you will weep inside with longing for the good old days full of meaning.

Happy summer solstice to you global north plebs.

For the others, I'm sorry.

Rise up sovereign blood,

Bend the arc of destiny,

Whereto, wayfinder?

Imperial system gives you more freedom to select the appropriate resolution fraction. I can measure in whole, half, quarter units. Even eighths, sixteenths, thirty-secondths, etc. Metric only gives you tenths.

What if you are measuring something and cm is too coarse but mm is too fine. What if the smallest meaningful unit is .25? Why would I care about .1 .2 .3?

This ability to select the appropriate resolution is what makes imperial system superior. You select the exact resolution that is appropriate.

In construction, framers only care up to ¼". Drywallers up to ⅛". Finish carpenters up to ¹/16". A joiner up to 1/64".

You just don't have that freedom of resolution with metric.

Imperial system is love. It's all about fractional resolution.

Hey Fellas! Remember the good old days when we used to build forts out of cushions and defended it against imaginary beasts? Now we've got REAL mini warriors to help! It's time to retake the living room! 😂🏰

There is nothing wrong with kids these days. Their parents, however, are another story.

Good money fosters the instinct to accumulate, not the temptation to squander.

Let's cut the crap. Bitcoin ain't gonna democratize wealth – it's going to meritocratize it. It ain’t about taking from the rich and giving to the poor – this ain’t no $#@&ing Robin Hood story. It’s about earning your keep, it's about what you bring to the table. It takes that silver spoon right out of the mouth of the privileged and says, “You want a taste? Then you better start cooking.” In this new world order, you ain't given wealth, you earn it.

I feel like NOSTR should integrate holepunch/keet for p2p nests. (If Paolo would freaking open source the code.)

I've got an M2 air... One can only dream ... But some of these dreams have a way of becoming reality.

Proposal: We call all the people wanting to change #Bitcoin "tweakers".

Can I get a repost?

I wish I could use my Ubikey to sign NOSTR events.
