Just another humble pleb. I’m interested in mining, 3d printing, and technology in general. Nostr class of 2022 - Bitcoin class of 2016 🧑

Wake up, scroll through nostr feed, brew coffee, walk the dog, stack some sats, and enjoy life. Pura Vida indeed. β˜•πŸ«‚πŸŒ… #plebchain #coffeechain #PV #getyoursatsoffexchanges

I never see it anymore. I used to love that boost.. πŸ₯Ί

I don't have $300 though 😐 My fiat isn't making it very far these days...

Too many people have given Elon a pass. Don't give him a pass.

He's a marketer, not a founder or an engineer. He didn't found PayPal or Tesla; he bought into them early. He's good at selling narratives and equity valuation for perpetually unprofitable companies.

Everything for him is a narrative. His green revolution was a narrative to sell more cars and get more subsidies. His bitcoin purchase was to gain appeal among bitcoin/crypto people in a bull market. And he shilled doge like a dumbass. His SpaceX narrative is to get money from the government.

His rooftop solar thing was an outright scam; the technology isn't ready and went nowhere because of that. His full-self-driving-in-an-intermediate-term timeline was a scam, and is going nowhere because of that. He makes scams to draw people and capital in, because for him it's all about narratives and equity valuation.

And then he dug unproductive holes, suggested unproductive hyper-tubes, built meme flamethrowers, for what? It's a narrative, not a business. None of this is real productive shit to make peoples' lives better.

His latest "we need free speech" narrative was a scam too. He tapped into something real, which is what marketers do and why it kind of worked. Yes, we need free speech. Yes, Twitter had censorship issues. He saw that and jumped on it maliciously rather than productively.

But what did he replace it with? He replaced it with arbitrary journalist censorship about his private jet, arbitrary censorship of Substack, selective Twitter Files release, won't talk seriously about any of his China connections because Xi Jinping fucking owns him economically there like Jack Ma, has his balls firmly in his grasp, etc.

Elon's playing the narrative, the anti-woke meme of the day. He's a master meme-momentum-player. Don't fall for it.

I agree with all this, I haven't really ever liked Elon as a person. He has one of those personalities that makes me question his motives and he's pretentious AF. He's also a billionaire shitcoiner, that's all I need to know about someone to dislike them. πŸ’©πŸ’©

Told someone "zapped and followed" at the fiat mine today. They were thoroughly confused. πŸ˜…

Haha thanks! Yeah, he's a little strange, but very chill. We rescued him on Christmas Day last year, found him in a random field next to McDonald's/Sonic. His name is Satoshi πŸ€™πŸΌπŸˆ

#plebchain I do trivia at work every other day and today one of my questions was "In 1933, the 6102 order made what illegal?" I did not even know today was the anniversary. 🀯
