My non-bitcoin hubby informs me that bitcoin just hit AUD $101K πππ There's something about the psychological $100K that has caught his attention.

Been looking into SimpleX Chat a bit more. Maybe better than Telegram and Signal. Anyone have used it before and recommend?

nostr:npub1edd9lp84z8jusqujzrecsunja2xcqmjl0adjdj6y8uakaj932ejqar8nu4 FYI - I was interested by your Signal post and had remembered this app. Might be a better option. π€
I like simplex for chat, but it always drops calls. I'm not sure about it's level of security.
It was fun and I learnt some stuff about you by poking around your website π
I found out that your work has an organised process.
And I was about to look and see if there was a hidden message in your image.
They're silly little creatures... I guess that's a part of why they are so loveable π

This will really blow your mind then... I've been Door dashing for a few extra fiat dollars. Most of what I deliver is fast food. Trash that people actually pay to have delivered. It boggles my mind.
I had no idea before I started working out three weeks ago about how useful it is for mental clarity that lasts.
Ah good point. Instead of fighting for a precise definition as it's written in economic terms, you're saying, "hey, I don't mean what you think I mean" with a new term. Interesting. I'll have to think about that.
My understanding on where the term capitalism came from agrees with yours. It was first coined as the opposite of the communist paradise.
I haven't heard the term "non-state capitalism" before. What do you mean by it? What does one gain from giving away the original precise definition of capitalism? π€
I like your definition, but its far from universal.

Even "private ownership" is rubbery - alloidal ownership of land hasn't been a thing in the West since early mediaeval times.
Unfortunately, words in common usage pick up "surplus meaning". We can invent / borrow new technical vocabulary, but over time they too will suffer the same fate... :(
All four of the definitions given in the link are variations of what I said, or basically what I said...
Greed and malice toward human beings might cause traumas, but the definition of capitalism is government stays out of the market as an over-regulator and the means of production are private. I wish people would stop confusing the two. ππ
That's what you get for asking a student in political sciences π
Upside down it's a cartoon cover version of Leviathan by Thomas Hobbes.

I don't know if it's a good or bad idea to use politics to alert people to ancap/libertarian ideas. What I do know is it sometimes seems to be quite effective. Politics is where people go to hear political ideas and if you're not there, how will new people discover the ideas? I also keep hearing people say that Ron Paul really changed things for them so it seems effective. But perhaps more effective is to ensure we are all talking about the ideas every time we can with individuals in our life who will listen to us.
