Hope I got the right people! The only one I 'know to see him' is Elon...

We used to be 15 minutes AFTER a storm passed, we'd lose power. At this point we're the only neighborhood in the area that has above ground wires (we were built in the late 50's and everybody else was 80s and later), so if we do lose power it's not unusual that it's out for a while...

Indeed. I'm just a sucker for irony!

So I decided to go on twitter and posted my swell 'Get your ass to Nostr' meme so that would be the last thing in my feed, and twitter basically just said 'yea, we're not going to let anyone see your shit'.

Gee, why wouldn't someone strive to participate there?

That's how it went with me! :)

And would this include ETH at this point? I'm torn between holding and seeing if anything good comes from it and just waiting for the best exchange rate ETH to BTC and dumping...

Nah, a bunch of philly union guys sitting in trucks should have this all better in a few days..

I always heard it would come down to the feral vs the cattle...

Recently nostr:npub15879mltlln6k8jy32k6xvagmtqx3zhsndchcey8gjyectwldk88sq5kv0n mentioned in an episode that tech is the one area that is deflationary rather than inflationary.

When he said it I recalled a quote I think from PC magazine from way back; "The PC you want costs $3,000.00 and it always will" or something along those lines. The idea being that as tech improved that leading edge mainstream would forever be in the $3,000 price point.

The idea seems ludicrous, but today I found this 'holiday catalog' from Swan Technologies. I'd purchased a 386sx/ 16 with a 40 meg hard drive, 4 meg of memory and 640x480 vga for around that very price in 1989 and a year later they sent this catalog with a 386dx/25 with an 84 meg hard drive, 1024x768Vga for that much.

Anyway, you can still get what amounts to a simulator (gaming PC) for $3k if you want to these days, but even the majority of graphics and video people don't even need to spend what a student did in 1989.

Of course there's this other Guy named Swann who's working on an AI system, so I'd be curious what kind of components and cost that calls for... Hoping he talks about it in his ai podcast..

So all that said, I can't imagine the "pc' I want ever costing $3000 again (the dollar's crash aside).

It worked on that kid that made the 'skull of satoshi' right?

I really miss Walton West Virginia.

Been waiting for Persimmons for YEARS now. Looks like it was just too shady where it is. After taking out a couple of the big trees last spring this one is in full glorious sun MUCH longer and is finally giving us fruit!

Dear mr snake, feel free to stick around and eat any mice you may find...

Grandson: Pop, Wolverine, Spiderman and the piggy want to listen to us play piano.

Me: Um... OK! 😁

And yes, the Jeep lost two tires running up and down the keyboard!

I remember years back in an interview Jack White suggested that he didn't smoke pot and that he thought that 'it's cheating' when you write or work creatively while using cannabis. I think Jack is somewhat brilliant, if not a little self important, but it occurred to me that he was wrong; The cannabis is not making the music, it's helping YOU make the music.

Even if it causes you to do so (i.e. you have no motivation or inspiration, but as soon as you smoke you have a surge of creativity), it's still YOU doing it.

Like a skier; he doesn't start his run in a football field, right? No, he starts on a mountain. The mountain helps him ski. The mountain causes him to ski. But HE skis.

At least, that's what I think...

"Like a fool, I tried again... and I succeeded."

Hmm, maybe I just really want to see that green... or the machines know!! :)

What color was the image you gave it, because this appears to have perfectly captured that Green that they used on the mustangs that looked black when you first saw it.

Just go back to grade school. You in elementary school in 2023, they would DEFINITELY drug you.

Never saw this one coming. . .
