I get annoyed when people say 'can' when they mean 'may'--and vice versa.

I also get annoyed when people mix up 'fewer' and 'less.'

"Sloppy language makes sloppy thought possible," and it leads to poor commuication, as well.

TL;DR: ...wait, is it not #festivus yet?

I tend to agree. The only caveat is that I adjust my language to my audience and for my goal. Sometimes being correct semantically/grammatically risks alienating you from your audience and undermines the goal of getting this or that idea fully into their head.

Reminder to everyone who's is worrying about the US strategic Bitcoin Reserve being a Trojan horse to banning self-custodity and the use of Bitcoin as a peer to peer money: WE ARE OUT HERE SENDING PERMISIONLESS FREEDOM MONEY ON A PERMISIONLESS DECENTRALIZED COMMUNICATION PROTOCOL.

GOOD MORNING 🫡

I find this hard to refute. How would this not slow/actively fight against bitcoin as currency/better money?

They want a dumb rock. We want freedom money. I don’t think we’re fighting on the same side

There's a lot of manual jobs that are hard to replace, and if you have some intelligence you can crush the competition. 💪🧠

What kind of world encourages its young people to go into debt for all of the things they are taught to be good and proper, housing and education and (sometimes healthcare) and then lampoons them afterward by telling them the best thing and most important thing they can do is work as hard as possible to pay that debt off.

GM nostriches! The wife wanted a smoker for early Christmas present, so I didn’t stack sats as well as usual… BUT, so good getting smoked meat at home now. Quality of Life! #grownostr #foodstr

GM nostriches! Should get up to almost 50F today, then cold all week… so, trying to get stuff done outside and in shipping containers.

Last night I finally started playing with the Ender 3 I bought about 3-4 years ago and managed to print a thing or two. Not great but gotta start somewhere, right? A little tool holder that mounts up to hold the Allen wrenches, SD card adapter, etc.

Don’t have kids which makes things more flexible

Damn you lived there?! It’s just so risky in the minds of mainstream narratives. Guess I’ll have to pop through that bubble one day

Been thinking I need a better way to store copies of important documents than a USB stick. Stuff like passport, diploma, travel insurance if I ever buy that crap again... Are there any better ways to keep these copies long term and available while travelling?

I like using jobs as an excuse to "travel" - just pick a place and infest it for a year or two, hence the diploma. Its a shitty way to travel, but since companies at home won't even acknowledge my existence, it's all I got. Anyways, I always worry as my bag gets zapped by the x-ray thingy that the sticks will be toast.

It's weird that the State regulates ownership of cars but not of bicycles. They probably want to regulate bicycles too, but for some reason they can't.

Bitcoin could be either a car or a bicycle -- depending on how easy it is to move it and pass it around?, or what?

My wife just got her holistic health practitioners license. It's a weird transition from "recommending" certain products to her clients, verses having the ability to send them a curated script list with nothing but a peace of paper in between.

Mid-day coffee is the best self treat for those who consume coffee.

Well, I can think of better but it’s up there! 🤣

My code is always garbage but it at least does what I needed/wanted it to do at minimum so I'll take it lol
