THE GASLIGHTING NETWORK:

- "Don't believe your own memories of using LN non-custodially on a daily basis for countless times in the last few years, but believe fraudulent marketing claims by shitcoin scammers about you never actually doing what you actually did and do"

- "Don't compare LN to existent, realistic and sustainable alternatives, including its own future iterations and evolutions, but to imaginary born-perfect, silver-bullet, turn-key solutions like gigameg-blocks, miraculously brought to you by the Second Coming of Bitcoin Jesus, resurrected to bring you with him in the Hard Fork Heavens"

- "Don't think about real-world economic/monetary dynamics, pushing most actual users for much of the foreseeable future to prioritize their concern over inflation and confiscation of their long-term savings, over coffee-paying costs or risks, but make up imaginary millions of people with no fiat but somehow lots of sats to spend in billions of fast/cheap transactions starting tomorrow"

- "Don't engage in nuanced and honest discussions about the actual security-model spectrum for different use-cases, but pretend that those millions of imaginary sat-spenders somehow always need, for their imaginary fast/cheap transactions, the very same trustlessness models than slow/huge ones."

- "Don't acknowledge the fact that Bitcoin's usability for normies has been brought from nonexistent to mediocre over 15 years of hard work, but pretend its layer1 was born perfect, without inherent issues like chain-anal/coin-selection/fee-estimation issues"

Yes, but to be valuable and stable the mint needs to be fully reserved, and the mint itself needs to be free from manipulation.

We agree with each other, I just think there isn’t a single brick and mortar bank in the world currently which could carry this vision.

Don’t dilute yourself

Hi @npub1ky9s6hjl46wxcj9gcalhuk4ag2nea9yqufdyp9q9r496fns5g44sw0alex @npub16c0nh3dnadzqpm76uctf5hqhe2lny344zsmpm6feee9p5rdxaa9q586nvr

Reporting something weird is happening in my Primal Android client: the "latest" and "latest with replies" feed are now showing any new notes.

Same happens when looking to my profile notes. The error reads "Unable to load newer content at the moment. Remote Key not found"

/r/Bitcoin is filled with crypto bros and fiat maxis. It's bad.

Your brain can run on ketones made from fat & your liver can produce all the sugar you need from protien. Exogenous sugar almost always produces elevated bloodsugar levels that elicits an emergency hormone response. Your pancreas naturally produces homones that help you produce the sugar you need & break down stored fat. But when you consume sugar your body has to work to produce & store fat rather than break it down. You can't burn fat when you are making it. If you have become acclimated to using fat for energy then the transition from burning fat you have consumed to fat you have stored is fairly seamless, so energy levels are stable & it's easy to either lose weight or remain lean.

A lot of the sugar in fruit (fructose) can't even be used by your cells & has to be converted to either glucose or fat. Fructose, like alcohol, leads to cirrhosis of the liver.

In my experience, eating steak & eggs every day has improved my health & made it far easier to stay lean & strong. And vegans or fruitarians tend to be frail & unhealthy. Steve Jobs died of pancreatic cancer because of his fruitarian diet.

The form & bioavailability of nutrients in plant products is just dramatically inferior. There are no essential carbs, only essential fats & protiens.

What are you up to today?

Dude… Twitter is insufferable. Every time I actually spend any time engaging over there it feels like it gets worse and worse. Or maybe I’m just losing interest in the type of conversation and seeing it for the cheap trick to enrage me that it really is. Hard to say.
