Lobster is great.
Poutine is great.
But lobster poutine??? lol
How was it?
āIf they start selling wine in grocery stores kids will start drinking, the world will end and societal chaos will ensueā.
I think we did OK since then. š¤·
A bit too profound to watch on a Thursday at 6am.

One of the greatest managers I had at work always used to say āperception is realityā. Thatās certainly true in a work environment, but sadly more and more true in the real world too.
Major #BitcoinĀ news outlet āBitcoin Magazineā just published an article advocating for Bitcoin users to pay a āHODL fee.ā
In an astonishing and mind blowing turn of events for #BTCĀ , Bitcoin Magazine wrote an an opinion piece saying ābitcoin hodlers need to pull their weight too.ā
Since holding or āhodlingā does nothing, it seems as hardcore BTC proponents are pushing for a new rule change so holders will pay a tax for doing nothing. BTC Mag also wrote, āA call for a fee for hodling Bitcoin, to balance the fact that the mining security budget is currently paid only by people transacting, not people simply hodling.ā
The āHODL_FEEā will be 50% of Median Transaction Fee (MTF) over the previous two weeks. So if the median fee is $5 for last two weeks, you will be charged $2.50 hodl tax fee. If the median fee is $20, the hodl tax fee will be $10. You get the point.
With high transaction fees going to $400 at one point earlier this year, itās not hard to imagine high median fees and high hodl tax fees in the future.
They also changed the author to āBoBā. However the real author is David Scalzo which is the VC of Kirenaga Partners

Was that on April Foolās? lol
IRL, why pay a tax for road infrastructure if you are not driving?
Probably because we are not in a euphoria phase yet? Price action is pretty boring at the moment. What do you think?
Funny that in 2021 Bitcoin would have been up like 10% on news like this. And we are down 3.5% today!
I like the taste of almond milk, but at the end of the day itās just yet another ultra-processed food. š«
Then post your wine of the day here! š·
Whatās a good book and a good wine youād recommend?
But does it matter, if itās for the greater good of humanity?
One could argue AI is not for the greater good of humanity but some applications are.
Iām all for sustainability and transparency. But itās hard to bucket all āAIā in a single bucket.
My thoughts too. At least in the short term. As much as Iād love to contributes to content creators on Nostr or a decrentralized platform, patreon is so ubiquitous at the moment!
Why can Primal have zaps, but not other apps like Damus?
Are there unfollow issues on Damus? I get that unfollowing takes time to be processed, but I am seeing notes in my feed from someone I unfollowed several days ago? When I click on their profile if says I do not follow them.
Damn šø, thereās sats spilling out of my phone now. 𤣠https://nostr.build/av/fc2ec25ac77758c70ab350dfbe91a9fb2e42c5b17c3a54d4ece2b8b02d7a149e.mov
Zap spam?
I got a 3 sats zap too today, but only 1!
I had a dream about Joe Biden. I was watching him speak at a conference and then after I went to a street to see the motorcade drive by. Sadly I woke up before it drove by us.

It has to be nuanced. You are both right in a way.
For example, in the American Southwest they imposed strict water regulations (canāt water lawn, etc) even if consumer water consumption is only ~15% of the overall water consumption for the region. Thatās not fair to put the blame on individuals. Itās the same for gas stoves, state controlled thermostat, etc.
That said, who wants to live in a planet full of smog and 40C weather. Orange skies in NYC look pretty on your insta feed but are terrible for the population.
