 He's just been told he's on Epstein's list and to tread carefully 😂. 
 Devuan, Debian without systemd.

At the rate we are going systemd will reach AGI first than chatgpt 😂 .

https://www.devuan.org 
 It breaks the Unix philosophy of doing one thing and doing it well.

Systemd is doing more and more things and that is not good, it has reached a point where it is as or more important than the Linux kernel. 
 Great contribution! 
 The world's most evil thief.

 In Spain more than 4000 human beings commit suicide every year and the trend continues to rise, especially men, it is a drama that the media hide from the population. Not a single ministry or aid to mental health, not that I am a supporter of aid, but the hypocrisy is annoying.

For example, about 40 women a year die at the hands of their partners, and for this there is a ministry and more than 20,000 million euros of budget, the cancer of modern feminism.

In domestic accidents more than 300 people die every year, so that you realize that in Spain women who die at the hands of men is a derisory problem.

And I have doubts that the figure of 4000 suicides is true because in the last 4 years I have witnessed 4, and the last two recent ones barely 6 months apart.

The system is a steamroller. 

Never give up, until the last day.

Even if there is no more hope it is your obligation as a man not to give up, face reality, face hardship, face death, for there to be light there must be darkness, you just have to hold on until the light appears again.

 En España más de 4000 seres humanos se suicidan al año y la tendencia sigue al alza, sobre todo hombres, es un drama que los medios ocultan a la población. Ni un solo ministerio ni ayuda a la salud mental, no es que yo sea partidario de las ayudas, pero me revienta la hipocresía.

Por ejemplo, mueren alrededor de 40 mujeres al año a manos de sus parejas, y para esto hay un ministerio y más de 20000 millones de euros de presupuesto, el cáncer del feminismo moderno.

En accidentes domésticos mueren más de 300 personas al año, para que os deis cuenta de que en España las mujeres que mueren a manos de los hombres es un problema irrisorio.

Y tengo dudas que la cifra de 4000 suicidios sea verdadera porque en los últimos 4 años he presenciado 4, y los últimos dos recientes con apenas 6 meses de diferencia.

El sistema es una apisonadora. 

Nunca te rindas, hasta el último día.

Aunque ya no exista esperanza es tu obligación como hombre no rendirte, afrontar la realidad, afrontar la penuria, afrontar la muerte, para que exista la luz debe existe la oscuridad, solo tienes que aguantar hasta que vuelva a aparecer la luz.

 The US bond system is the hot potato, either they start QE or it will explode.

Either way it benefits bitcoiners, screw the fiat system.

 There is a feeling that ETFs are absorbing Bitcoin and the price is not going up, but this is not true, global bitcoin ETF holdings have remained stable over the last 6 months in the range of 1M and 1.1M Bitcoins.

Some buy and some sell.

 If Bitcoin is embraced by the state, is it still Bitcoin?  
 Yes, it really is a trap for the state, as it takes away their financing power at the taxpayer's expense, they get to play by the same rules as everyone else. 
 Good morning!

 “Firefox & Thunderbird Collect User Data by Default (in Violation of European Law”

This is something we have known for a long time, hence the need to use telemetry-free browsers such as LibreWolf, Mulvad or Tor Browser.

https://lunduke.locals.com/post/6201979/firefox-thunderbird-collect-user-data-by-default-in-violation-of-european-law 
 Telemetry has also been found in chromium and brave, although in both cases it was rectified, I can't tell you how the situation is currently in chromium based browsers. 
 Kmail (kde) or evolution (gnome) 
 It can be deactivated unless they have included something new but it is more convenient to use for example Librewolf which is already telemetry free.

 The police release these criminals on the same day. 

Even rapists are not imprisoned, they are simply sent to a rehabilitation course.

Spain is a totally failed state. 
 Now what sells is catastrophism, all the youtubers analyzing the war or the economy as if it were the last thing we would see. 

I am sorry to tell you that we have been beating each other up since long before man discovered fire.

Every day the sun rises, no armageddon is going to happen.

Mind you, tomorrow there will be more dollars in circulation than today 😂. 
 Interesting theory 👽

 The day will come when core will stealthily introduce an increase in the supply of bitcoins and you will all rush to install the new version and accept the new rules 😂 .

Currently there is no consensus, except for what Luke can do for himself in knots which has a lot of merit.

 This is consensus, although many clients use libtorrent as an implementation, there are also many that use their own implementation compatible with the bittorrent protocol.

 Mircea Popescu was the pinnacle of conviction, it was the highest state a Bitcoiner can reach.

 Mircea's Bitcoin reference implementation if it was ossification, now we have no one to fight against core wokes.

 People are very thin-skinned about what such a character as Saylor says about what Bitcoin is or is not, I have my own criteria, Bitcoin like gold has the duality of store of value and money (although currently it is almost impossible to use gold as money).

And I go by what my senses see, not by what some random economist on the internet may tell me.

Bicoin is a store of value, peculiar (high volatility in the short term) but a store of value, and if not tell that to those who are able to hold it for 5 years or more.

On the other hand it is also money, as much as some people insist on saying it is not, since the first day it has been used to exchange goods and services, as much as some people hate it.

Bitcoin is what gold was in its day, a store of value and money. 
 One of the reasons for the birth of Fiat money was the low spatial marketability of gold, i.e., it is very expensive to use for international transactions.

Gold is easy to use in face-to-face transactions but even so it is almost impossible to verify its authenticity on the spot.

Bitcoin solves these two problems, it has a high spatial salability, that is, I can send it to the other side of the world at almost no cost and almost instantaneously and on the other hand it is very easy to verify its authenticity simply by using its own node. 
 In 2009 he says, and Satoshi Nakamoto is my friend,  you’re a nutcase 🤡.

“The North Carolina lands especially damaged by the hurricane have lithium reserves. If the catastrophe escalates for lack of relief, the state could seize them by paying paltry compensation to the owners. The lithium would then go to Black Rock. What a coincidence” 
 What do I want both in Nostr and in life?

Fuck the system, that you embrace Bitcoin, that you embrace privacy tools and that you embrace the black market.

I may be more or less right, but I am persevering, I will die trying to awaken consciences. 
 Nostr is not private, Nostr is an ideal anti-censorship tool to spread the message of Liberty. 
 Thank you for your words, Trinity 😂 🫡

 The Fed's mission is neither to keep inflation low nor to worry about the labor market, they are lying through their teeth. The Fed's mission is to keep the bond system stable, with low volatility, so that the US can finance itself at low cost.

The US lives at the expense of the other countries that buy its debt. To lower the volatility of the bond system basically what is done is to print money (QE), look at the correlation between the drop in volatility and the rise of bitcoin.

Now look at the high volatility of the bond system since 2022, this volatility will be suppressed because the US is more indebted than ever and needs more money than ever.

You better have your savings in noe's ark (#Bitcoin).

 One rule that any method has to comply with is that it has to maximize its exposure to bitcoin, that is, coins can hardly spend minutes in Monero for example because otherwise you expose yourself to the loss of purchasing power, which is what bitcoin was created for, that is why I consider that in itself Monero is an oxymoron to the founding principles of bitcoin, Monero does not work to protect you from Fiat currency devaluation, it does not even beat inflation.

So please don't you Monero supporters come here and say just use Monero and Monero is what Bitcoin should have been because Monero has not achieved any of the main goals of Bitcoin.

For me Monero is just a privacy tool.

 What I wanted to say is that the problem is that Bitcoin makes rises in just 9 days a year, if it so happens that one day of those days you are in Monero, then you are much poorer. 
 Bitcoin makes all its upward movements in just 9 days a year, it is statistically proven, even less days, if one of those days you are in Monero you have screwed it. 
 Monero loses purchasing power relative to bitcoin, do what you want, it's not my problem, don't come here to convince me of your bullshit 😂. 
 This is precisely the use of Monero that I have analyzed, but it is neither economical nor practical, so I am not convinced by it or any of the other methods I have mentioned. 
 😂 then you don't understand anything about finance, Monero is just a privacy tool, Bitcoin is digital gold, stay poor 
 You're retarded 😂 
 The short answer is that at the moment there is no way to do it. 

The long answer is that the only way to do it at the moment is a sidechain like liquid, liquid uses CT as a monero, although it does not use ring signatures because these are one of the culprits that can create hidden inflation, if hidden inflation is created then 1 L-BTC will no longer be equal to 1 BTC and the sidechain loses all credibility.



 
 Bitcoin is digital gold and bitcoin is money, bitcoin is what gold was 2000 years ago. 
 However use bitcoin as you prefer, neither I am going to convince you nor you are going to convince me, do not waste your time.

Satoshi created bitcoin and made a point of saying it on bitcointalk and in his emails to protect us from monetary devaulation, which is a store of value, and on the other hand he also created it to be uncensored money.

If you don't accept the duality it's not my problem, I use it for both.

If I want to call it digital gold I call it digital gold, because gold was used as a store of value and money.

And here ends this stupidly meaningless discussion of what the white paper says or does not say.  
 If you don't understand an analogy it's not my problem, you're a troll and you know it. 
 I spend a lot of time analyzing the different privacy methods that currently exist in bitcoin, including Monero as a privacy tool.

There is nothing that convinces me 100%, they all have counterparts.

All of these include:

- Lightning network
- Liquid network 
- Swaps
- Coinjoins
- eCash 
- Statechains
- Monero swaps
- combination of the above.

It is not that they are not effective but they have trade-offs such as:

- some have little protection from a state actor.
- expensive
- complicated for the average user 
- Some are unusable for the plebs in high rate environments 
 The sender has a lot of privacy from Lightning as long as you route.

- open a private channel with a node to which you never make direct payments. The receivers will never know where the money is coming from.

With receiving it is another story, you have to use combination of techniques to get privacy until bolt12 is not fully implemented. 
 On its own I never recommend Monero because you will lose purchasing power.

I only recommend Monero as a privacy tool.

For example receive in Monero and immediately make an atomic swap, or when you are going to spend make a swap from bitcoin to Monero and spend.

But it is not economical.

 Many bitcoiner influencers fill their mouths with decentralization and anti censorship but still use Twitter bullshit.

Some of us have honor, conscience and dignity and don't have a single post published on Twitter, I just use it to get information but they will never have value contributed by me.

 I obtain valuable information from certain economists and investors. 
 I'm not an influencer, I'm just a crazy guy trying to fuck the system but it's true that I want more people to join me and fuck the system through bitcoin, privacy and agorism. 
 Are you aware of the Matrix? If you are not aware of the Matrix we have nothing to talk about.

I am here to awaken your conscience, I have nothing more to gain or lose.

Why trust me? Because I have never asked you to give me anything, nor will I ever ask you to give me anything. 
 There will soon come a time where everyone pretends they were always bitcoin maxis.

 This is the definition of hard money described by Samuel Edward Konkin III in “The Agorist Primer”.

He described bitcoin perfectly in 1986, although at the time he was referring to gold, the description is much better suited to the nature of bitcoin and what is happening.

"Suppose some substance could split its atoms without losing its essence, be more resistant to wear and corrosion than any other, be easily recognized and certified for its purity, and be valued by a lot of people for its usefulness and good looks. Suppose further that it “did better” than any other offered in competition.

Wouldn't most people turn to it to make money? There would be no need for laws, no foundations, no advertising campaigns leading to it. Nature would take care of that. Second, third and fourth choices could be taken into account, but the first would become the standard against which all others are measured." 
 Counter-economics was one of the culprits of the fall of communism in the USSR, let's not underestimate #Agorism.

 “vitalik.eth(@VitalikButerin) sold some tokens received for free and got 140.67 $ETH($340.5K) 50 mins ago!”

The Vitalik foundation sells eth and buys btc, of the former we have proof, of the latter I am sure.

 New version of Bitcoin Core 28.0! Quickly install it without even reading the changes! What is this consensus thing? 😂 
 The day will come when core will stealthily introduce an increase in the supply of bitcoins and you will all rush to install the new version and accept the new rules 😂 .
