Just a pleb on a never ending journey of education and discovery. I love to tinker and try new things. The ocean waves are my second home, this tragically means I keep losing my sats in boating accidents... 🌊🛥🤷🏻‍♂️ GNULinux/FOSS/FOSH enthusiast, BTC maxi, XMR curious, Nostr Maxi.

Watch, wait and observe as the enemy consumes themselves. Low time preference thinking is our ally and we need do nothing but stack, HODL and touch grass.

Tried it, didn't work for me. It became harder to access the apps and functions which I actually need to use on a regular basis ultimately leading to deminished efficiency and more time spent on my phone in situations where quick and smooth operation would have been advantageous 🤷🏻‍♂️

I find that when your real life is more fulfilling, you simply spend less time in your digital life.

Solve for the cause, not the symptom.

When money is sound, people do things for other people.

When money is weak, people do things for more money, often at the expense of other people.

Yeah, I am aware of why we use calories, and I understand it's importance, but I think the use case in this above example is kinda redundant, that's really what I was getting at.

However, I still don't think it's a great metric when thinking about nutrition, too reductive, it also doesn't take into account the variety of other vitamins, minerals and chemicals consumed from certain food groups which the body might benefit or draw harm from. Nutrition is kinda hard to draw scientific concensus on, I would go so far as saying it is something of a "sudo science", (or at least it has been in the past, things seem to be improving) especially as it seems that there are certain food groups which benefit certain portions of humanity better than others. 🤷🏻‍♂️

"Don't consistently eat more calories than you burn in a day" is a big part of the story, but it's not the whole story.

The average human gets 20% of their calories from wheat.

another 16% from rice

another 13% from maize

So far all starches! And that is HALF the diet!

Imagine a plate, and half of it is wheat, rice, and maize. Every meal like that. Every person like that. Wow.

another 8% from soybeans

another 5% from sugarcane (probably as white sugar)

More carbs!

That's already 63% of the human diet.

Yes, 63%. I rounded the above numbers. Why are you checking my work? Don't you trust me?

Next is 3.8% from pig meat. Finally some meat! The total meat will be more than 7% once we count it all.

Imagine those carnivore diet people. Fuck 7%. They are at 100% (I suppose?)

3.1% from rape and mustard seed (probably as canola oil)

2.1% from potatoes (more starch!)

Wait... people get more calories from canola oil than from potatoes!?

2.1% from barley (more starch!)

1.9% from poultry meat. Finally some more meat, but this so far adds to 5.7% meat. I hope there is more...

Finally we get to 1.8% from all other vegetables combined.

So those recommendations that say your plate should be 1/2 vegetables.. I guess they didn't consult with the food growers of the world first.

1.7% from sugarbeet (as more white sugar again!)

1.5% from groundnuts (is that peanuts?)

1.4% from sorghum (I'm not even sure what sorghum is)

and then 1.4% from bovine meat... Our meat total is now up to 7.1%.

That's the end of the list. Everything else was too small to count.

Historically a number of other crops have made up large portions of the human diet such as: Rye, Jerusalem artichoke, Cassava, Sweet Potato, Parsnips, Broad (Fava) beans, and Squash / Pumpkin. Did I miss any? I'd like to know if I did.

I feel like calories is a strange metric to measure this by 🤔 considering most healthy foods are lower in calories. carbs and sugars are naturally high in calories so it skews the results and provides a false image... If you used protein as the metric then meat would appear much higher on the list. Maybe near the top.

I think maybe mass is the best way to measure this sort of thing? 🤷🏻‍♂️ but that also skews due to sugar having such low mass compared to calories for example 🤔 OK, So we need a metric like mass corrected for calories or vice versa.

Well balanced humans buy all of the above in measured quantities... 😎

Thanks for the tip, looks like a good service. But TBH, if I'm going to pirate, I might as well pirate for free 😂

It's been a minute (10 years +) since I've pirated movies etc... Is it still just a case of using a torrent client and finding the material on Pirate bay? Or have things moved on in any way?

If someone has an updated guide, I would be interested to see it

That's a stock for MicroStategy, not a currency. It's quite hard to use stocks as a medium of exchange.

I don't know, that's a pretty abstract and hard to quantify concept tbf... Just delete the sincere part... But anyway, I never heard anyone asking for BTC paper notes 😅 that's my point.

You are correct, but a lack of complaints denotes a toxic environment, there is always room for improvement. Complaints can generate signal (that doesn't mean all complaints are signal of course 😅 there are definitely those who will just whine about bs). If it grates at you then some self reflection is required, why does it bother you? Know your own worth and trust the work you are doing 💪🏼 use the signal as a tool and ignore the whiners.

That being said, I wish people tipped devs as much as they complain! 😆

I haven't yet seen the point or need for a smart watch, I just need a watch to tell the time. bonus points if there is a stop watch, alarm and countdown timer function. Extra bonus points if it's a solar watch and I don't need to change the battery.

Sell me a smart watch. 🤔

I know some professional fishermen, and when they can't go out because of a storm they go to the bar, drink, fuck or fight 🤣

Relaunched our newsletter yesterday, so here's some tips for staying private when signing up for content on the Internet!

First, we use Ghost for our website which has some built in analytics that we can't turn off, such as logging the general region from your IP address. You can avoid this by using a VPN – and you can support Bitcoiners while doing so, by using https://obscura.net/

Second, signing up to newsletters will always reveal your email address – you can avoid this by using one-time login email addresses, which forward the content you signed up for to your regular email address while keeping your actual email private.

For this, you can use Proton's built in alias service, or https://simplelogin.io/ if you are not a Proton user.

Sign up to our newsletter to get weekly news on financial surveillance and beyond directly to your inbox via link below, but most importantly stay safe out there friendos 🩷

Why no RSS feed? Isn't it more private than an email subscription?

The actual state of (my attempts to interact with) nostr... it just gets better I swear...

So I can view other peoples notes on YakiHonne, but I still cannot publish my own notes there, I can publish notes on Amethyst, but cannot see anyone else's notes... I mean come on, is this for real!? Why does it seem that I have more problems than everyone else? Or is it simply survivorship bias? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Survivorship_bias

My relays in Amethyst are supposedly all functional and connected, as for YakiHonne it's the same old issue where it just wipes all relays every time I try to connect them. Is it possible my apps are causing friction for each other somehow? #Amethyst, #YakiHonne, #Citrine, #Amber, could they be somehow causing interference to each other? 🤔 I'm clutching at straws here 😅

Ooff! Don't trust me! 🤣

If zaps are set to private though, does it record accurately?

Couldn't zap the meme so I sent straight to your primal wallet 🤙🏼 thanks!

You're spot on 🤗 everytime I get sick I have to give thanks to God because he's protecting me from something greater, I take this opportunity to fast until I am well again, I might have one small simple meal per day, I listen to my body and see what's best.
