Nor I nor wife have any connection to Ukraine, despite that. First day of the invasions wife wire's $1200 to the Armed Forces of Ukraine. With out hesitation. No, not "Ethical egoist".
Yes, stop the war. Anything else is gaslighting.
he war could and should have been over by now, with a Russian withdrawal and reparations and the maintaining of international law. We in the west can not demand that international law is followed if we don't follow or uphold them ourselves. There was the Budapest Memorandum and Ukraine that was the third largest nuclear power in the world, handed over all their nuclear weapons in exchange for promises that this would not happen. It's shameful in so many was that they have not even gotten the help that was promised. For instance the USA does not spend 65 billion dollars on aid, only a fraction of that, rest stays in the US and is used to modernize the US arsenal. Promised arm's from other alies is not sent. It's the family of this fellow that suffer. Frustration is warented warranted.
Friends and family gets slaughtered every day.
Promises were made.
My thoughts about the word "socialism".

I have a NIP (Ninja In PJs) regarding the priv keys. Was thinking it would be nice to introduce a certificate chain sto enable password changees. Still need to formulate idea. How does the process work?
Ah, remember... Had shoe chafing at wedding.. wife gave painkiller with codeine. Fell asleep... so she forced me to stand! This is when she discovered I can sleep standing up...
Congrats to you and your future wife!
I noticed the yard-sign, got me thinking, please, don't get offended by post, no need to take action or read, it's thoughts and questions to the general community... a rant?
It's... hard to see... Is it socialism, has to be, It's Any after all. Experience is; Understanding of, nuances, differences, gaps, rifts and canyons between various social learning philosophies on the left side of the pond is disheartening. But it's also a very difficult subject to discuss due to misunderstandings, prejudice and poor definitions. I just typed socialism into Google and Google gave The American Heritage® Dictionary as first/top answer. Their definition is of course completely skewed, incomplete and hence incorrect. Their definition is akin to "Bitcoin is used in crime, hence all bitcoiners are criminals, there is no other use for bitcoin". I suggest looking at the Wikipedia page instead. A subdued down to the point definition of socialism could be; forced economic altruism, usually implemented though redistribution of wealth using taxation and executed through various state services such as free education, free healthcare, subsidized student loans, subsidized housing loans, social security nets, labor laws etc. But yes, there is the "Soviet Union" communist version of socialism as well.
Any Rand was an Ethical egoist (it's an ethical must to be an egoist) and Liberian, but what is "Any Libertarian-ism"? What is the Utopian idea?
Keep in mind, Ethical egoist. Excellent concept to understand. Using this definition, when boiled down; The difference between the left and right leaning ideologies is the amount of forced, allowed and forcefully denied altruism (executed through taxation and implemented by law). Any's opinion was that economic altruism is immoral. Hence taxation is immoral, same as the memes here on Bitocin Nostr. This would imply's no free education, all infrastructure privately owned, pay to use, private Police, Army, Justice system etc. Personally find that deeply problematic. I don't think it would work for most people. Yes, after boiling down "Ethical egoism", I'm using the shared financing of common/communal expenses through wealth distribution using taxes as the definition of socialism. This is one of few solid commonalities between all socialistic ideologies.
So what are ethics and what is Morality? - A complex subject, and? I believe; fundamentally, it's our decisions making framework grounded in both hardware and software for a certain type of complex social interactions. Akin to feelings? Maybe to rain-in or help correct outlet of feelings? It is needed by the cognitive abilities. It helps making good complex decisions that relate to others in a group, in a quick and cheap manner. It's a left or right thing, layered architecture and all that... Basically, I believe a huge part of morality is hardware and genetics but primed by nurture. So, Morality is nature and nurture. This begs (hat of) the question, is morality relevant as an argument and if so, why? Why do Any and others even take the word in her mouths? I don't think she was using my stated context and she was an atheist. Of course, she could have had a yet different understanding of what moral and morality is, even in the classical sense.
Any Rand and her thinking does however fully explain all the Trump worshiping, he is after all, one of the poster boys for the no hinges "cut throat" egocentric connoisseur of economical politics. I'm doubtful it is his political achievements is what he is worshiped for.. my verdict regarding him is "A cut throat, economical and a political failure in all regards except one, and that one is no boon for the USA". But that is a different topic. The fact that Trump created his own crypto currency should not have come as a surprise to anyone. The man already did similar stuff over and over before, he does anything for money and would do anything to get away with a scam. You guys explained to him how profitable it would be. And the Ethical Egoist begs for this, everything else would be immoral. The reasons, the why and what's of the contemporary situation in USA have never been more clear to me. It's not only the cousin syndrome, there are prophets as well! Maybe I should turn my attention to theorized root causes instead... Don't think it's for Nostr.
Regarding Any, and religion. Whether you are a straight hardcore atheist or have any type of religious leaning inclination including "new age stuff or/and magic" there is plenty of "reason" and "philosophy" one can induce into that subject. The well known? quote after a "near" death experience "I have been in heaven, it exists but it's empty! There is no god!" comes to mind. Believe the chap was and remained an atheist...
As strange as it sounds, You can be a hardcore atheist and a believer in a afterlife. You can have a true religious conviction, get into heaven and not meet any god. You can be right and wrong at the same time. Maybe it's more like what is hinted at in "Men in Black" particularly the end scene? Note: Not suggesting the "Simulation theory" in a religious context, I say test tube? It would explain a lot, does answer the 42 question *fully*, enables the atheist an afterlife and gives the believer a heaven but never kills nor proves or disproves the belief in god. It's simple, but different. Sounds bonkers? It is a firm framework, makes sense!
Any makes me remember all my left anarchist friends over the years. I always struggled with the fact I had to explain that they are libertarians. They talk about "the missing piece" of the horseshoe. But no, there is no missing piece, there is nothing wrong with the horseshoe, it's something else.
I am yet to see anarchy, economic fortune and liberties united in a working theory or practice. What I see is the Middle Ages or "the dark times", Viking's "trading", colonialism and "the black trade", feudalism, list goes on... Is this Bitcoin? Is this what Bitcoiner's want? Is bitcoin the savior that shall re-enable it? Is this Libertarian-ism? To me this sounds a lot like Elmo Musk approach to free speech: I'm all for free speech! YES! MY free speech!
The bonkers existential "religion" theory stuff I mentioned I get, but Any I don't. It's all bonkers to me.
Anyone want's to explain?
This one is interesting... And I do understand bafflement and "not understanding" here.
Admittedly not having any knowledge of facts, numbers and specifics mentioned, I can help demystify the "not understanding":
So... The epic tale of earth starts *way* before... Dino's!
Earth was once completely covered by *giant* forests. Yes, pretty much ocean, beach, desert and forests!
It's believed that the nail in the coffin for this fact was the relatively recent invention of grass.
Uhm... Yes, relevant but a different topic.
So... These forests existed and trees lived and died in them over a *very* long time, this also happened during the Dino's.
Back then the preference was "airy studio apartments's under bridges" so nobody picked up the dead trees...
Yes, some Dino's eat leafs, but very few ate logs... So over eons, with landmass movement, trees got buried and eventually and became coal and other stuff.
Yes, think Wyoming and coal mines.
Thinking is; If we use the logs, as building material, it will eventually end up in the heap and get burnt.
Yes, that is "green energy", problem is, some want to reduce the amount of carbon in the atmosphere. So why don't we reverse the process?
Dig up coal and bury trees, sort of...
However, I admit bafflement, this I cannot explain.
In total ignorance I ask:
How can this be cost-effective?
No lower-hanging fruit?
If we remove timber from the market, dig it down to make unprofitable coal, won't that create a deficit of timber on the market.
Like with Bitcoin, deficit = $moon.
I must assume, erosion due to deforestation is still a problem in the world... but what do I know.
How is it not, that some of that voke carbon capture "abracadabra" is not more cost effective and useful?
Thinking here goes; If we dig up coal, gas oil and stuff, use it for Bitcoin miners and just pump the carbon waste stuff directly back down into the ground,
like where it came from... Would that not be helpful? Like energy but no carbon?
And yes, there's other scientific magic "hand waving" one could do, Yes. that is also a different topic.
But not knowing uhm "where these sciencetist can be found" is akin to not knowing about coal, and yes... Dino's... Tag this one "doctoring/miss/diss-information".
This I like!
This makes me think of the horse shoe theory.
It’s not quite like not quite like some people interpret it but yet it fully is…
If you have a horse shoe, please do hold it up, now. Preferably the correct way like how you put it up on a or above the door. For luck of course.
The; What do you see?
Do this indoors, out doors, in different places.
What do you see?
The thing in the middle, both, the unity and the gap, is what unites the horse shoe.
If you want to balance this, let’s say on a string, what do you?
If you don’t get it, think governance and squirrel’s, yes, governance, foxes, wolfs and squirrel’s...
So this “tree huger”, uhm, think “bridges” says…
The center must hold. Both.
A poem. E: Took car to buy wife coffee.
Gave time. Time to think and To Reflect. About culture, sub. and place.
Bring out the small dalek inside, explain! explain!!
Are you shopping for a Ford-T which one?
Checks all boxes with discord, so all or none?
Nice build. Impressive progress and work. But reflect?
It's like all can be one. Everyone is. Everyone like Satoshis, most not the 1. That's good. That's fair, Hussle and bustle is their.es
E: You may recall customer, a face?
I like the fact that you are busy and autumn is here? Gives time to think. Think about the coming season or next springs.
Any thoughts? A talk or a hand?
E: I don't think this for posts, but for how children used to be made.
Like with peas and peaches, like bleach.
I would like my focus back. Winter or spring. Any and all is fine.
Going with autumn, going for a ride. Going for an annual introduction. Not 72, I just give one.
When you are fine.
25k steps.. 20km... Hum. You should be playing Pokemon go!
Do that with the kids, good for your companion..
In the summer, on a good day we rack up 20k steps. 25k steps is good! You really deserve that relaxing bath. Don't fall asleep in there!
Sooo frustrating when it happens to you, but always the tiny smirk when the victim is some one else. I'm a bit mean in that way, but there's been queueing in more than one line in my day's. Nowadays I always have a fail over GSM to for that occasion. No praying required.
In most IRL encounters I think it is. Don't think your own definition is what matters at this point in time, has to become money in the broader community first.
Sorry to be a party popper.
But hey you might find someone that shares your view here :)
Maybe it a plus then!
Oh my, oh dear. What do we have here...? A Toadd. Interesting... Todd you are a real hatter, but you do have a point. 100%
Shall we say; only correct answers to Todd an wrong answers to me?
And let's remember what thing I said before? Regarding the laywers... shall we?
This is what the Russians are trying to steal:
Ukraine is home to a vast array of critical minerals with an estimated value in excess of US$26 trillion, making it a significant player in the global supply chain. The country boasts approximately 20,000 mineral deposits, covering 116 types of minerals.
безумовна перемога
However that a genocide is being committed that must be stopped is the most important issue.
I understand it's fluffy vale woke talk to most, for you, try to get an understanding what is going on, apart of the genocide and the consequences it will bring to your doorstep.
Use it as well, is great, only draw back is, wife thinks they are heavy to compress. Guess there is no good solution to that problem... You sort of need it.
Meem/someone wrote yesterday? Something like I went to the post office? where they asked me for ID, the teller said you look much younger on this photo. I replied yes I've been standing in this line for quite a while. I say the same, look at my f**king selfie avatar!
I wish there was a ledger nano sized Coldcard with battery, no need for Bluetooth, just nfc and a Micro SD card slot. Two buttons to use on the go. To connect the Mk.4 to the phone with a usb cable or battery pack is not optimal on the go. Buttons on the Mk.4 keypad could also be improved, otherwise great kit.
Do you think noster or something thing like it would have come along if Bitcoin had not been created and open sourceed? My thinking is that in some way Bitcoin, started/caused/kickstarted this decentralize everything including social media paradigm and enabled an idea that would otherwise have looked absurd and unrealistic implementable. Think about the first feedback regarding Bitcoin at launch, that it would not work, and later the gem " It's not going to survive, I mean, How is it going to work there is no central bank?"
Hmm.. let's see.
Yes. Lad has interest and appreciation of Top Hat’s. Much respected and useful knowledge indeed... Must admit… hum.. due to colour and cut, I must assume this creation is a crossover between a Lincoln and a Classic Provençal… Italian Canotier perhaps? Instead for the future, I hope, that the recommendation of a crossover between a classic Tall Lincoln and a Gibus would not be to intrusive...?
Yes, I think that would work splendid!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Chapeauclaque.png
Unless this is a "hat's of" to the honorable Charlie Chaplin.
But I must say, I do think, on this young chap, a classic Tall Lincoln Gibson would suit well.
Yes, let's see if there are any other takers... any who, typos...
Babe we are not alone, this one is made by me... of course!
Uhm.. I do know you can uhm... hear... But do *read* the lyrics.
*hat in hands collecting forgiveness*
