NOSTR cultists, love it 😂

I guess I'm also an Internet cultist, a Bitcoin cultist, an electronics cultist, a corporate cultist and a logic cultist, oh, also a cooking cultist and a cruising cultist.

I'm sure there are some other cults I'm in as well.

Good luck going forward.

I'll leave you with this thought.

There is a difference between solving a problem and offering a better solution.

If you focus on the latter , you'll have more chance.

Last piece of advice, you are clearly having difficulty interacting with people if you have to resort to insults. A key to success is not shit on anybody on the way up, you'll be amazed at how quickly all the people you shit on will bring you back down again.

Be nice, it costs nothing and works incredibly well, even if you fake it.

Genuinely, I wish you well and every success.

Just so you know, we're not the only toxic maxi's in town 😂

This wasn't the type of boat I was expecting a Bitcoiner to own 😂

What about RIPE, Nominet or me.

I run my own DNS with my own naming structure, but even then I don't need to, I use static IP's for some services.

I run my own authoritative name server for me, it subcontracts unknown searches to RIPE or Nominet and these subcontract to other root servers if need be.

IP is the only censorable part, I can run local IP's or I can set my own routing using my AS number to redirect public IPs as a wish, but mostly I wouldn't.

IPs are censorable, not DNS, but even then, I could use my AS number to route around any censorship, I could even advertise higher than the censored AS's to remove the censor.

Ultimately if a state actor like a firewalled country wishes to prevent me accessing content, then they can install a bridge. If I want to stop you accessing my network, I can physically do it. But that's how it's supposed to work, my IP my choice.

There are many 3rd party DNS alternatives that try to solve a problem they don't understand doesn't exist.

You weren't tempted with the Cessna Citation X ? 😂

Phew, I was getting worried for a while, but good news, the new Bombardier Global 8000 has launched in time for the pump 😂

We're just checking out the latest cruise ship to launch 😂

We ran out of builders tea bags, my wife made a mad dash to the shops last night.

True story!

After my fleeting visit to London last night, I'm back on tea duty for my builder 😂

The only poetry I have ever felt a connection to was by Siegfried Sassoon. Some of his WW1 stuff is extremely moving.

What socials did George use?

I feel he'd be a Snapchat kinda guy 😂

You should have seen the flippant way my mate, who holds Bitcoin, but is not a Bitcoiner was playing with his hardware wallet this evening 😩

I’m in, I’ll take ten. Have them wrapped and delivered to my financial advisor 😂

Do you offer 10 year convertible yields bond notes tapered on a runway with leverage 😂

Everything , and you? 😂

It’s a bit touristy, but Instagramable 😂

I couldn’t vouch for it’s age, but it was delicious 😂

More pictures of Covent Garden

We had takeout in London

I’m at a friends house teaching him how to use his Bitcoin 😂

GM

(it’s actually evening but I’m going for the U.S. market 😂)

I’m in Covent Garden

I pop by to say hello now and again.

Recently I have mostly been watching Satoshi’s statue being recovered from the lake in Lugano and Adam Back’s AI generated profile pic from 20 years ago 😂

So I'm liking my fedora Linux desktop setup, but I'm using an old, cheap keyboard and mouse.

I'm used to the quality of an iMac keyboard and mouse, what's a good equivalent?

I've seen a 46 (naming no names), you're doing OK

Despite our glib slogan of "Bitcoin solves that", it can't solve every problem.

But it does solve the root of many problems and gives a stable financial basis to gather the strength to solve life's non financial problems.

I want to say something serious about this, but realised that would be an oxymoron 🙃
