 please go to "Roscioli" to eat a carbonara pasta also for me.  It will be one of the best eating experiences of your life.

 Curious that "nostr" resembles very much the italian word for "ours" : "nostro".  Anybody knows who chose the name? 
 he’s unfortunately wrong about this nostr:note1llv39nujm9mj0dayqj37wlxulkealcfwqu4a2zvp40uwcau3... 
 He's right regarding the fact that the community here is almost indistinguishable from the bitcoin one.

 MoM - how was it? The latter is awesome insofar. ✌️ 
 It is a good one as well, very dense. In it JBP explores more deeply psychoanalytic ideas from C.G. Jung, E.  Neumann and others. Definitely requires more focus, the concepts presented are varied and it is closer to an academic textbook than to a consumer book of the self help type.  If you like 12RFL, comfortable with intellectual stuff and want a deep dive into the mediation process between chaos and order,  I suggest that one as well.

 Banning unhosted Bitcoin wallets, welcome to the EUSSR where all freedoms are taken from you. 
 Only naive utopians in desperate need of finding their identity in a social group ever believed that EU is anything other than an anti-democratic apparatus.  
 Best things in life happen when you accept and confront death and suffering. It is true psychologically, it is literally true in my own life.

 Of course I believe it is your right to say what you think. I am not a US admirer, but these times demonstrate the importance of the first amendment. By the same token, It's my right to do the same.  It ingrigues me that it intrigues you.

 No. Germany has not even a cash limit. it won't happen.
 
 That situation is relevant for AML/KYC banking regulations in Germany, which I don't know. For private transactions there is no cash limit, which is reasonable. 

Try to take out the same amount in cash from your account at a latin bank, and see how much time passes before you actually get your money.

 Ahahah, well, it is a bit. To be fair, it really depends where were you living. I think you can be deemed a walking danger if u were in Rome or Naples 😆

 Well done! I'm happy you were so instrumental to bring such positive effect to someone else, keep it up

 FInished a few days ago the audiobook of Maps of Meaning. 12 Rules for life was pleasant.  
 Honestly we all sound absolutely insane on #nostr from the outside looking in 🤣 
 Uhm. 
1) Facebook - Cambridge analytica
2) Twitter Files
3) European union's censorship DSA
4)  U.S. Tik tok bill

To me it's whoever doesn't see an enormous problem here, that looks insane.  
 "Morality is the idiosyncrasy of decadents having the hidden desire to revenge themselves upon life – and being successful." 
Frederich Nietzsche




It's hard to state "I am a good man" . While it seems I have more arguments to say "I am not a good man" , this definition caught my attention listening to JBP's "Maps of Meaning". 
I see often in myself and others, anger and desire of revenge lurking beneath an apparently morality surface. 

I attach value to this definition.

 Not really sure math is that appropriate to express the intangible value of a human soul, but I particularly liked your analogy to compliment her beauty.  I can clearly appreciate the difference between a man's mind and woman's one. I would have just said: you're beautiful.  
 In other words, math is a way to articulate something we cannot be conscious of in our common parlance. Something which cannot be articulated in words. In a sense, it is a way to escape. That's why it feels so compelling.  
 I need some Italian cuisine lessons 😓😂🫣 
 Agree 😝  u' re welcome whenever u pass by CH 😃

Happy Friday!
We made it 🤝🏻 
 Happy friday! 
 Do you want some italian cuisine lessons?  
 I was expecting gas to run out in the midst of the cooking, but it didn't . Although not perfect, Last minute home made pizza with grandmother tomato sauce was quite good

 As a society, we tend to over complicate everything. 

The most complex issues often require the ... 
 I was doing breathwork every day for almost one year before the lockdowns period. I think it didn't help me in understanding deeply which psychological baggage and traumas I was carrying around, but it was a game changer in making me more present and at ease, spacious in my mind. I felt like a different person.  
 Yes, it probably should be incorporated as daily practice for people who see clinicians, I wonder why it is not constantly used as a base in psychotherapies toolbox.  This thread is making me thinking to start this again. Do you do it regularly? 
 Hype aside, too little is known yet around consciousness to speculate that there may be some form of it within these systems.  Yann LeCun makes very solid points in criticizing LLMs during Lex Fridman's interview.   
 Similar accusations have been made last year to Russell Brand. Also in his case, the accusations are ~10y old. 
If no evidence is presented ( and everything leads into that direction) it is once again the tyrannical, corrupted, dark side of society at play. Not a chance today's Nostr sign up day.

 Hello to the Nostr world! After a few months of having an almost dormant account, I am finally becoming active here. Looking forward to getting familiar soon with the platform and interesting people here 
 His energy is fascinating. I don't find many of the things he says intellectually overly sophisticated, rather very reasonable and simple. It's not the case for instance with JBP or Tolle.  Matè conveys a pacific aura, I wonder what's the dark side of that.  
 Well, certainly you don't have a german nickname...
Wir alle wissen dass Italienisch mehr poetische ist, deutsch Freund 
 Good morning everyone!  Today I am 3 years without alcohol, proud of myself and my journey 💪😇 
 Congratulations! Keep it up!⚡  
 1 - he has had health issue, smart boy
2 - ok, let's demolish that and turn into you a slave.  Too late to think again 
 too kind comment... 
 A good, intelligent and very courageous  man of other times. Constructive and compassionate in articulating his vision, he incarnates the archetype of an old wise father.  He is the only candidate who properly addresses western societies' capture by big industrial complex  be it military, health, food or censorship one. If I were an american I'd probably vote for him.  
 Happy to read that you already consider yourself a slave, at least you're coherent. Anarchy is chaos.  
 Non e' solo buono essere italiani, e' la miglior cosa possibile.
