 To be fair I meant for humans and not fish but you know, we can expand our query ... 
 I always think of my fish friends 
 are new york strips better than ribeyes? 

i say yes 
 Both at their best 
 Id say the flavor on NYS is better balanced 👀 
 There can only be one 
 Same same, 🤝 
 We should all sit and have both kinds  
 wen? 

I vote October 15th 2025 
 Sir, you have spoken truth, picanhaay indeed be better than both 
 I don't have anything scheduled yet for that timeframe so I'm game 
 I'm sorry you feel that way, but at least you still get ribeyes which are pretty good 😂 
 that was a great buildup just to be wrong bro 
 I can respect this 
 reflecting on the crowd strike phenomenon ... I think I will add a chatgpt search to my family server 

it will add some resilience if there's a connectivity false flag 
 Civilization is so fragile 
 not sure who is more authoritarian... reddit mods or HOA leads  
 Reddit mod reach is so far though! They can shadowban you across more parts of reddit or they could when I was on there 
 legitimately don't know who I trust less

 kids built a big fort tonight, it was actually large and well built but a bit on the smelly side

as I left I said thanks for inviting me to your fart 
 never had tools as powerful as Bitcoin and Nostr, they're being built at the right time 
 Right on 
 there are no wrong answers on the dance floor 
 me thinks we're going to need a few dozen more relays 
 And more resilience after the telegram news 
 going to be a fun decade

Curious about your impressions. I'm looking into it after listeni... 
 I used it for about a year. It was early on so the program changed frequently and the mortgage payments sometimes worked and sometimes didn't.

I think they have gotten the operations more in order  but from my experience their benefits got worse every few months.

Pros 
- sats back on everything
-  truly a BTC only company
- nice synergy if you also want to buy sats on their platform

Cons
- average sats back was less than 1% for me
- you have to spend a lot to be able to do the mortgage one
- you can probably get more sats with a credit card (like amex 6% on groceries and convert that to sats)
- hard to track monthly spending
- no checks 
 Here’s one nice thing about NOSTR.  No advertising!  And not being baited to give money to a pl...

 I wanted to love it (I love sci fi and fantasy) but I didn't ... also had a similar reaction to yours around the underlying collectivism push. The back cover endorsement definitely didn't help

 We had some fallish weather too, back to summer this week

 guyz, I'm really enjoying my new gym setup ...

it's been a long journey fixing up this old house but I want to be out there so bad my body isn't keeping up 

so I guess lesson learned ... make your gym a place you really want to spend time in 
 First thing that may seem minor but it's clean, painted walls and epoxied the floor. Made a big difference in kids and wife wanting to be out there

- climbing rope
- gymnastics rings and mats
- power rack
- wall storage
- bike
- dumbbells
- horse stall mats
- tv + fan
- basketball hoops 😂

 We used a little corner for about 8 years at our last house so I feel you! It got a lot of use but felt like a chore. Wife was on board after I proved my case with the last one 🤣 
 Thank you, labor of love 
 #nostr got a lot quieter about rfk recently, wonder what's up 
 its crazy to me how this Democratic Party represents itself like its the same free speech, workin... 
 they have a powerful propaganda machine that has brainwashed a lot of people into believing that lie

you can tell it's even hit some on nostr  
 imo they think with their heart in a lot of cases and can't separate fact from the story they got told. the left leaning friends I have are wrapped up in one of these narratives and have a bit of ends justify the means attitude about it:

-orange man bad, fascist, Hitler must be stopped
-they honestly believe they are standing up for a marginalized group
-save the climate, save the planet

All rational talk of economics, math, authoritarianism, inflation, can't navigate to their heart 
 agreed, me too, guard your heart  
 did you know that Viggo Mortensen had not read Lord of the Rings and a big reason he took the role was his 12 year old Henry's love for the story?

#LOTR 
 also how cool if your dad gets to play strider, wow man 
 from what I've read on Viggo the wealth doesn't get to him much, lives like a mountain man 🤣

 yeah interaction seems dead on there unless you have 100k plus
