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
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
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
Say good night to the bat, he's still around but his npub looks a little diff

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
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 🤣
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
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?
