I don’t know if it’s most or just some but agree on that view to see last posts.

I keep who I am following pretty clean but definitely some 8mo ago post accounts on there.

Also, follower count can be completely dependent on your relays. I don’t even check follower count bc it’s an unreliable measurement. I used to have 3000 followers here now it only shows 1000.

Americký FinCEN (Úřad pro postihování finanční kriminality) se chystá obecně na všechny mixéry kryptoměn a bitcoinu.

Šrouby se utahují…

Communism ain't funny - in the UK we have a commie run "health service" which employs "diversity and inclusion executives" on £70k+pa, but refuses to provide dental care.

My city is the absolute worst city in the country for dental provision. Just been informed that I have no choice but to go private to get work done which could have been avoided if the Communists hadn't refused to see anyone back in 2020.

This is gonna cost a fortune and it'd be cheaper to go abroad and get it done but I need to marshal my resources to finish repairs to the boat and stack sats as well as everything else. This is just another millstone.

Forgive my ranting, please. Bit pissed off.

Fucking communists.

As developed nations continue to enter sovereign debt crises akin to the 1940s, there are a few main outcomes.

Option 1) In a world without bitcoin, or if bitcoin fails, central banks and their governments recapitalize themselves with gold, devalue the people, and do another cycle of this inflationary policy for the next few generations. The Treasury/Fed handbook literally has a written option for this, although it is stated more opaquely. It can be done in the US (and probably many other countries) based on current laws if shit hits the fan. Denmark's central bank and China's economic ministers have also written similar things regarding extreme outcomes. It's pretty straightforward based on the past.

Option 2) We go into a centralized technocratic future. Centralized AI and CBDCs win. People have cuck money that the AI+government control. It's like Brave New World, 1984, take your pick. Hard to say, but not free.

Option 3) Open source money wins. Bitcoin and its ecosystem win. Governments get defunded from their fiat printers, and have to be more honest with their ledgers or default and get reconstructed since they can't print what their people hold as savings, or in the hegemon's case, can't print what the world holds. Probably a world of chaos for a time during the transition, but also an opportunity for peace and building the next era. Keeping track of the nukes would probably be a big deal, like when the Soviet Union fell. It's actually kind of remarkable that they collapsed economically and politically but in an orderly enough way to keep track of and secure most of the nukes.

I don't know which one will win, but I consider Option 3 to be the honorable method; the path of transparency. That's the one I am rooting for and building for.

If I fail, I would like it written that it's the method I tried for, but realistically the AI+government will probably delete most of the records of all of the failures anyway, since that is how history works, without any sort of objective truth keeper. Our best hope is to hide records in a distributed way and hope they can remain undisturbed for a while. At least bitcoiners have a tendency to write stuff in steel and make low time preference things. Some psychopath will hopefully carve a life work in steel in a cave or something, but who knows, lol.

And ironically, if Option 3 wins, any of the losing factions could still insert their ideas and paths into the Bitcoin blockchain, now or in the future. It's the most immutable database that we know how to build, and would preserve their ideas as it does our ideas. Like, you know what? I *want* the Communist Manifesto to be in the immutable Bitcoin blockchain, because I want people in the future to know how *bad* it is. It might already be in there; I don't know. I wouldn't want people centuries from now to think about those ideas and believe they came up with something new; I want to preserve my enemies' texts because I believe I can win through markets, force, virtue, and truth.

I think that's almost always what determines the winning side. Losers want to burn their enemies' texts to ensure that their good ideas don't spread too much. Winners want to preserve their enemies' texts to ensure that their bad ideas are never repeated.

Ha thanks yeah, I've been looking at videos:)

It feels like I should just make a decision and realise I will also want the other one with whichever I choose if these two. In a way they're only together cos if the similar price point. Both look great and are vastly different.

Microfreak may have been bumped just ahead since I found out a firmware update allows sample loading.:)

Arturia Microfreak vs. Korg Minilogue

Any thoughts?

Now that Reddit is here can we post this sort of thing and #askreddit #asknostr ?
