The Jews... always serving evil. They made the Romans kill Jesus Christ, they set up the communist movement, they used the US and England in World War II, and they invented a holocaust that never happened with the magic number of 6 million.

You're not ready to read this, I know.

Here’s the thing… as a regular American does anyone really give a fuck about Israel or the Ukraine?

Because I sure don’t.

The steel man for the Ukraine is that using the Ukraine as our new forever war post Afghanistan is somehow a “good deal” for us because it bleeds Russia, allows us to update our military equipment and doesn’t cost any American lives.

IMO it’s just another way for a transnational security elite to wash money out of the American tax base.

The idea that Ukrainians are fighting for us is retarded.

There are plenty of countries in the world with just one currency unit, which is tiny, and everything else is priced an amount of that. Works fine.

For me, the bigger question around this OP_RETURN debate is getting rid of the datacarriersize option (one proposal gets rid of it now, another deprecates it for getting rid of it in the future).

The Core devs are underestimating just how many people construct their own block templates given the popularity of devices like the BitAxe. Given many such miners are principled and won't mine spam transactions, that option is a very important one to have for their own mempool.

GM,my friends! How are you doing today?

I’ve got a question for you: Are you a red or white wine person?

I used to love red wine but after trying white wine from a winery in Niagara on the lake -Ontario,I changed preferences completely.

What are your favourite types of wine? Tell me below! 👇🏻

Ps. I started my day with coffee not wine ok? This is just a random note 😂 Not an alcoholic confession. 😆

I just finished this and it's nothing I didn't expect having already done a few deep dives on this... but it is also shocking just HOW bad it all really is laid out in full.

There is literally not a single piece of solid science to defend the statement that "vaccines are perfectly safe." And a ton of growing evidence to suggest the exact opposite, that our chronic disease epidemic might have a clear and intuitively obvious culprit.

Not one. Everyone who repeats it is repeating a myth.

The fact that many people accept it as true, certainly doesn't make it so.

I want to talk about something that some people may find offensive, and that I can’t talk about on Twitter to not get shadow banned as I have to rely on reach for my work.

The first time I attended Chaos Computer Congress was over 15 years ago. It had the best parties in town, and we would sneak in for the nightlife.

As I rekindled my interest in politics, computers and the internet, I became more aligned with the CCC’s mission: hacking the planet to hold power to account.

While I was already disappointed with some of the CCC’s policies – particularly on things like COVID and Bitcoin – this year was the first time that I seriously lost hope for and trust in the CCC as an institution – starting with its opening speech.

The CCC’s opening speech sets the theme for the event. This year, it was dedicated to the global rise of fascism. Speakers talked about Germany’s protests against the far-right AFD, about Donald Trump, LGBTQ and abortions, and pro-democracy protests in countries like Georgia.

But not a single word was lost to the genocide in Palestine.

Checking the CCC’s schedule, I merely found a single talk on Palestine, which explicitly made clear that it did not take a stance on whether Israel was right or wrong in its operations.

There were still a lot of great talks at the congress, and many assemblies showed their solidarity, but this complete lack of mention is what really stood out for me.

To understand what a hackers congress has to do with genocide, we need to take an uncomfortable look at Nazi Germany.

What enabled the Holocaust 80 years ago was not just a bunch of bloodthirsty eugenicist maniacs high on ungodly amounts of speed and their fascist ideologies. It was the streamlining of exploitation and murder to never before seen efficiency, with the help of new, more efficient technologies.

It is these same advancements in technology that are fueling the genocide in Palestine today. It’s surveillance on an unprecedented scale, evermore invasive spyware, AI enabled targeting and automated drone warfare.

You can think of Palestine what you want, but this technology is being exported from Palestine to the rest of the world today.

It’s facial recognition systems and license plate scanners that Israel uses to enforce apartheid that you’ll soon see scanning your biometrics for your next flight on holidays, or your car on your next trip to work.

It’s spyware companies that test their products to soon sell them to governments around the world targeting activists, journalists and opposition.

It’s psychological warfare utilizing dating sites like Grindr to social engineer Palestinians into spying on their peers and extort their sexual preferences.

Just last month, the a16z portfolio company Skydio, which is a major Israeli military contractor, was caught providing its surveillance drones to Yale University to monitor and track student protestors.

Some of you may find this topic uncomfortable as it may not align with your political views.

But the reality remains that the genocide in Palestine is a testing ground for never before seen surveillance tech that will soon be used on you. And the world’s most renowned hackers are silent.

The “no alcohol” psyop is gaining strength. Don’t let them placate you.

Dry January is here, and with it comes a chance for many to reset their relationship with alcohol.

As a winemaker, you might think I’m here to discourage that. But I’m not. Let’s talk about balance, quality, and healthy drinking habits. 👇

Alcohol is a powerful tool. Used responsibly, it can elevate life: a great meal, a celebration, a moment of reflection.

Escape is fleeting, but enhancement lasts. Find YOUR balance.

Finding balance with alcohol isn’t just about how much you drink—it’s about how and why.

• Drink with intention, not out of habit.

• Pair it with good food and good people.

• Take breaks to reset and reflect on your habits.

Find YOUR balance.

The right wine isn’t just about the alcohol—it’s about the flavors, the experience, and the people you share it with. Balance starts with knowing what’s in your glass.

Not all wine is created equal.

The industry hides a lot—wine quality isn’t all about price, and ingredients aren’t listed on labels. It’s a wild world of excessive sulfites, artificial flavorings, and even dyes like MegaPurple.

Balance starts with knowing what’s in your glass.

You can taste quality, but you can also feel it.

A great, clean wine elevates the moment while drinking, and leaves you feeling good the next day.

If not having a hangover sounds too good to be true, don't trust me, try it for yourself.

If you’re rethinking your relationship with alcohol, I encourage you to focus on balance and quality. When you’re ready to drink again, make it special

Is debt an asset or a debt?

Sounds a daft question, but I'm serious.

We treat debt like an asset most of the time.
