Yes, first day entirely without their nuclear reactors.
Instead burning coal, and trees. But their soaring carbon emissions are morally superior, or something.
If ever there were an excellent illustration of the 21st century’s feelings-over-facts problem, it’s the German Greens.
Oh look! The Germans have invented a Time Machine, and voluntarily decamped to the eighteen hundreds.
Nice work! Took me a while to figure out inbound liquidity, spend to earn seemed least complicated!
Love having everything local. This magic internet money is tangible and real, I can touch the box it lives in.
Everything is so late this year. Cherries, apples and others starting to do their thing despite the persistent PNW cold and gloom. Bit of moss for you, too.
Idly thinking about attempting a #nostr project and scanning available real estate. Geez, you folks have left nothing.
All these are legit registered domains, can’t wait to see the results (though .shoes is still available - maybe a #footstr angle for someone)

Carrying a laptop cross-border this week and just deleted/restored sparrow wallet to prove to myself I can do it before scrubbing it for the flight.
I mean I’m sure it’s fine, but one day it might not be.

Wife (discussing a friend leaving her place of work): “I’m pretty sad about it”
Three year old (handing her a toy rabbit): “do you need a friend?”
Kids are awesome.
Indeed. I’m much attracted to the up vs down outlook, which better describes many tensions today than does left vs right. Balaji dived into this a bit recently, but it goes back much further (this text from Fogbanking c. 2013).
Energy is life, and always at the root. I agree we need vastly more of it.
The Wizard and the Prophet (Charles Mann, 2018) explores this well too.
Absolutely. Layered Malthusianism around a solid core of misanthropy. The primary benefit of efficiency (and I do support maximally efficient systems) is to liberate energy for new and more productive uses, not to use less of it. Kardashev scale or bust.
Surprisingly the first time I’ve ever bought it! Just a trade, I try to keep my stock game separate from my Bitcoin game like church and state for the most part.
I mean yes, Pomp has beclowned himself in recent years but I do have him to thank for getting me into #Bitcoin sub-10k, via Mark Yusko.
My well of forgiveness is effectively infinite.
Celebrated #Bitcoin 30k by stacking some sats; then again, this is how most days are celebrated!
Picked up a little $MSTR during regular trading hours today. Are cashtags a thing on Nostr?
Oh man, sad to have just missed this! Eyes peeled for the next round. Congrats everyone 🎉
Fundamentally, people don’t change. Respect your no-fly list (it’s at least as important as your wish list, if not more so).
Just finished it, as a first-timer. Absolutely worth the hype. Loved Lionel Shriver on Citadel Dispatch.
Happy Easter, everyone.
Teriyaki chicken and rice. Low in home-grown content but does feature our own rosemary, thyme.
AI is going to mean one bot at $8/month is more effective than 10,000 freebies ever were; Twitter Blue as a way to filter bot swarms is going to quickly appear an anachronism. The added veneer of “authenticity” will merely compound the problem.
