He is alive!! Our old, blind #dogstr found his way to the local market & seem to be relatively fine!
Got him a piece of pork, this is actually the first time I have seen him eat :-)
Will definitely check on him tomorrow as well

Aaaand a short #catstr video :-)

Its been a while, so here are some accumated #catstr pictures!
Yeah... 2020 wrecked everything, from my 3 companies to business visa, the house i Europistan and some shitty, theoretical pension...
Working on reconstructing 5-6 Terabytes spread across random drives now, don't think I've lost anything super vital, had pretty ridiculous routines for redundancy before meatspace got wrecked!
And then all games online are about to change for real, at least if the .gov goons get their will...
That is part of the motivation for getting into FreeBSD too, Apple is proooobably captured already and Linux has Linus himself as a SPOF
Yep, and as in all warfare its about being PRACTICAL all the way, using whatever tools one might know how to handle in the fight :-)
Sometimes I feel like not sharing anything about stuff like this since it always pulls in the theorists with their "perfect" level of doing things, not realizing that this invites SPOFs
In a real fight you have to expect some real damage, keeping that on an acceptable level so that you are in for the long haul is what is necessary to survive & WIN in the end :-)
And that is why I have spread my #Bitcoin across platforms and devices, I can accept a loss of maybe 5% worst case but NOT losing most due to thinking anything is perfect...
Is it connected to the internet? If so, I recommend including a nostr:npub17tyke9lkgxd98ruyeul6wt3pj3s9uxzgp9hxu5tsenjmweue6sqq4y3mgl in your setup
I'm aware of Seedsigner but that is far too ambitious for now. Next up is to use an Nano Ledger S+ for Electrum and Sparrow ONLY, afaik Ledger can't rugpull that if it has never beem connected to their software!
Its far easier for me, all I want to is to use it as is and hopefully as best practice, on a couple of old laptops for very simple tasks.
So I can let the software lead the way, and learn how to tweak it as time passes, like I did with QubesOS the past couple of years :-)
If I finally get completely rid of OSX after these 23 years or so I'll probably use Mint for general work like video editing, we will see..
Guess I'm on an open source jihad haha!
The FED and all government dens should have water coolers, and I always wanted to see what happens when you mix ALL the weirdest drugs in one batch... So I guess I'd be busy as hell!
I worry about the easy ones haha, they've got a tendency to turn into rug pulls...
Which is why doing this for ~5% of the #Bitcoin I have makes sense, it is a platform that is very different from the others, also if I change those later on
Finally getting close to storing some #Bitcoin on Electrum running on #FreeBSD
Totally reminds me of setting up Linux a couple of decades ago haha, hopefully user unfriendliness makes it easier to remember that this old laptop is for Bitcoin ONLY!
Next stage is hardening & securing it using Mullvad or similar, so you'll get the next post from me in a few days or longer haha...
Watching developments & short time price action combined now... Scary stuff, actually...
Can't shake this idea that 500k to even 1M might be in play for THIS cycle...
Either way its time to get more wallets across different platforms & codebases online, regardless of fees!
Getting some experience with multisig this summer for sure feels good now...
Looks like that GOOD reason for me to run a node has arrived... ;-)
At least they'll probably get vouchers for cheap bug burgers, or even free suicide by government...
Of course, the areas on the globe that have sane, healthy and somewhat functional cultures will just trundle on, doing very well!
Those that are set up to fail would do so in spectacular ways, then wake up & re-organize.
There would be mayhem and maybe lots of wars, but in sum I bet that would not even compare to what the MICs of the US & others create on purpose, especially in a longer time frame…
99.9% of the people on the planet just wanna be left alone to do their thing, it’s always the leadership that initiates the murdering.
We might even reach this phase at some point in the future if #Bitcoin keeps doing it’s thing!
Hehehe, I actually slipped away the fucking last year possible to avoid that forced tax…
Oh and ditching TVs permanently in 87 was totally the best move ever haha
If you destroy and annihilate all modern states so that there is absolutely ZERO traces left in the known universe that would not even be illegal, since all the shitty laws would be gone!!!
Guess it would be highly illegal during the process of course, but if I ever got that chance………
That is why we have to buidl the new, free and sane on #Bitcoin every day!
And by that I’m thinking of real life businesses that simply ignore ALL the fiat BS ;-) nostr:note1aaluwf07f3luydjcarqcn2vnuvl23w67dffhla7jyss4d573eclqhv4a95
Will do, from this account :-)
It’s the only way forward… In 2020 I had no real choice other than walked away from 3 companies, nuking my work permit and top notch business visa, letting the house that I kept back in Europistan sell with lots of mayhem attached to that and basically burn all bridges to the shitty safety net back up there haha…
All while having a blood pressure well into ambulance levels, pulling my already taxed fiat through ATMs & buying gold and #Bitcoin…
No way I’ll ever do any mistakes like trusting ANY government institution ever again!
So something like a DAO on Bitcoin will be the next venture for sure…
