Be the mirror

Jack has been instrumental in nostr funding, if something like bluesky happens that's the nature of the beast. Bluesky isn't going anywhere, and if it does I'm still happy that the people there found something better than twitter.

My mom lookaled at this just now and asked if today is a bad day to buy bitcoin

I really do think a good mugshot poster of trump would be nice for decoration, I don't like the picture they took, I think he should be laughing. It'd go good next to my picture of biggie. Shame, wasted potential.

A real golf club vs a genuine tiger woods PGA winning golf club, alright. Would genuine be an abstraction built on real, or can something genuine also not be real ie "bitcoin is genuine but not real"?

How do you define if something is real? The golf club is real, and the obvious reasoning is that you can touch it, but is that sufficient? It could be made of the wrong material and be totally deficient as a golf club, a nice bottle of wine or a famous painting could always be a forgary. A video of a person online can be real, it is a real video, and just like a physical object it could be a forgery. At any rate, I am inclined to think a things realness can only be determined subjectively. What about you? Even if bitcoin is real though, that casts a wide spread of what is considered real, so I understand this isn't immediately a justification that bitcoin is a commodity.

Reconnecting decomishioned nuclear plants is harder than it sounds, it depends on what conditions the plant was left in but it will probably require a serious degree of refurbishment. Its awefully shortsighted to do this even if you don't think you need them, I hope plant administrators kept the place in working order.

When you solve all other puzzles, here's the boss and 2 minibosses

I don't know if I would call the subjective untrustworthy, it could vary person to person but it doesn't have to, its just whatever you see something as, which could be influenced by drugs, experience, sleep deprivation etc.

I have a high degree of trust that a video us real if I took it, slightly less is a family or friend took it and vouches for it, less if its on social media etc.

Uhhh, excuse me, this hair isn't doing itself, my mane requires a delicate touch

They'd probably be pretty annoyed by you doing that, id be begging people to help push liquidity the other direction rather than eat those on-chain fees.

I think its real, you think its real, but I am searching for a universizable definition for real. Its easy to assume something is real when you can touch it, but you can't touch bitcoin. I could say bitcoin is real based on assumptions about the node software, the block hash, the fixed supply etc., but that is a different set of requirements at first glance than how you would normally determine if a physical object is real, collectors items aside.

Any elaboration on the "relationship" between the subjective and the objective?

Next question, what would you do if you woke up and found some anon pushed every sat of your liquidity in one direction and you collected the routing fees?
