One need look no further than Zimbabwe (which is actually pretty far away, granted) to see that life, if you can really call what the people experience there "living," finds a way.
Plenty of sleep and plenty of exercise, along with a good diet, will probably go a lot further than prescription pharmaceuticals.
If you're having trouble sleeping, take a magnesium (bis)glycinate supplement before bed.

okay
I deleted my fedi instance a little while back. I'm considering making a new one, since Nostr really isn't working out all that well for me overall. Needs more time to bake.
I wanted to get involved with developing things for it, but the community is turning out to be a lot more soy than I had hoped--good for them, just not really the kind of freedom activists I thought they might be at first. They want money first and foremost, and principles of freedom are secondary at best.
They sure don't seem to have a problem with it. The extent to which they support it is unclear. Knowing how they work, their public articles are likely the tip of the iceberg of their involvement, but that's more of more of a "he who has eyes to see" kind of thing.
I just spent a little while reading through the Colavito article and the comments (IMDB is propaganda, and I can't read French, so I didn't delve into the other two) and am unsure what to think other than the mainstream Egyptologists really don't like the documentary authors. No surprise there. The article author makes the claim that the documentary appeals to Atlantis somehow, which it never does. All it does is raise many, many interesting "coincidences" without trying to come up with an explanation other than that there sure are a lot of coincidences.
Some of the comments make a stab at debunking the math in the documentary, and I'm not versed enough to say whether any of them are right. One guy said he put the geometry of the Giza pyramid as presented in the documentary into a CAD program and it all worked out, but that's not exactly a strong argument, either. So I don't know about all of that.
And yeah, my pubkey is forbidden in many ways, so I'm sure the various software and infrastructure the soydevs have built are "protecting" people from me. People often don't like what I have to say or the words I sometimes use to say it.
They're evenly spaced along specific lines across the earth (I can't remember exactly, but it's something like the equator and 30 degrees, centered at the Giza site). This includes the extremely isolated Easter Island site and other remote areas that would have been cut off from the rest of the world.
The explanation starts around 1:15:00 into the documentary--I may not have the details exact.
Funny how people immediately jump to "aliens" (or assume that's my stance on it).
The fact is that we don't know how they were built, and it is, for all intents and purpose, impossible that the ancient Egyptians did it. If you haven't seen it, this is a really interesting documentary that explains all the problems with the ancient Egyptians theory without trying to give an alternate explanation:

(Sorry for the Bitchute link, it got paywalled on YouTube once it got too popular.)
It also goes into some of the symmetries of the pyramids from around the world and describe how they're geographically placed relative to one another, even though there no way (that we know of) that the ancient civilizations could have known about one another, let alone communicate over such a distance.
Consider the following:
- I create a digital coin. There are 100 of them, fixed. Never any more.
- One person has 10 of these coins.
- Said person drops his phone in the toilet, ruining his key. Or he forgets his passphrase.
- His coins are effectively GONE from the system. They are cryptographically impractical to recover, and if they can be recovered, then the whole system is broken.
- There are now 90 coins, where there were once 100.
- The currency has deflated.
Now replace "100" with "21 million" and you have Bitcoin. It deflates over time.
Do your part - use the "master" branch on your git repos. Work with "whitelists" and "blacklists."
> "Bitcoin, not crypto." Not "Bitcoin is not crypto."
Right, it's a marketing slogan. People act as if Bitcoin is a special unicorn, and it's true that there is some network effect, but the fundamental technology is not specific to Bitcoin. It just happened to be there first and is eking along with that momentum and the support of WEF behind the scenes.
I haven't looked into fedimint much but am reading about it now. It sounds pretty shady overall. You're basically giving up your money to a bunch of people you likely don't (or barely) know who aren't subject to any legal restrictions, though one could argue today's banks operate largely the same. I'll do some more reading and see if that's a bad conclusion.
Thanks for the reasonable response, though. Way better than the meme spammers.
You know, that's actually a good point. Thermometer bot has at least the same intelligence as most of the other posters I've interacted with this evening.
Wow, such cool content here, bravo
FYI they have historical records of how the pyramids were built.

Copypasta from the article:
> ‘One individual named in the papyri is Dedi, who was a scribe and most likely a member of the royal administration. Although his documents aren’t well preserved, Dedi seems to have overseen the entire escort team, which was split into four smaller sections or phyles. At least three documents also name an Inspector Merer, who was probably the leader of one phyle consisting of about 40 people, based on the amount of food being issued to them. This section is the only one that we have detailed records for, but it was known as the ‘Great’ phyle and so was probably the most important. Merer’s logbooks allow us to follow the different missions allocated to this phyle over the course of a little more than a year. For some of it, they were working on the Akhet Khufu – the Great Pyramid – and at another time they were apparently making a harbour on the Mediterranean coast in the Nile delta, while the final recorded assignment seems to have been in Sinai, which makes sense given where the papyri were found.’ Merer’s daily log entries are as succinct as they are extraordinary. A number of them deal with journeys from limestone quarries at Tura, east of the Nile, to the Great Pyramid, west of the Nile. In general, the Great phyle seems to have managed about three round-trips in ten days. Here is an extract from the log of one such journey:
> …Inspector Merer casts off with his phyle from Tura, loaded with stone, for Akhet Khufu; spends the night at She Khufu; Day 27: sets sail from She Khufu, sails towards Akhet Khufu, loaded with stone, spends the night at Akhet Khufu…
> As well as firing the imagination about what Merer would have seen while over-nighting at the Great Pyramid, his account is crucial for demonstrating that people could arrive by boat. This brings us to the work undertaken at Giza by Mark Lehner.
So some guy had some stone on a boat (we think, based on reconstructed fragments of hieroglyphic papyrus and a healthy dose of poetic license) and that means the Egyptians built the pyramids.
Sorry if I'm still skeptical.
