Property tax is just another form of feudalism.


Hopefully!


Enjoy it. Truly a beautiful spectacle.


The concept of “rights” is an illegitimate notion. No one has a right or claim on anything, besides the natural entitlement of one own’s life. Your property is not yours because you have an inalienable “right”, it’s yours because it’s a natural extension of you. “Rights” require governments to be enforced; your life only requires you.

Are the Democrats going to lose the election on purpose? Lower interest rates now, cause malinvestments and inflation, economy goes to shit, blame Trump, secure the next election? Democracy is evil.


End the State. All of it.


Absolutely. The ancients were full of vigor and soul. They built roads and buildings that still stand to this day, while today’s government’s can’t build stuff that last longer than a few years.


I find it fascinating how all of these artifacts of civilizations long lost are actual remnants of actual human beings. Such a bizarre and beautiful thought — these people were just like us, and we are just like them; separated by millennia, yet connected thru time. We probably have much important to learn about their way of life.


Same goes with politics. All those NPCs watching CNN and Fox News propaganda every day. Turn it off, buy bitcoin, live life.


This last week I’ve fallen down the rabbit hole and explored the importance of mythology/myths and folklore (especially European) when it comes to creating culture. Shared myths and legends are the backbone of culture, and culture builds civilization. When you understand the myths and stories of a society, you understand its values and virtues. Good mythologies foster good civilizations.

I catch your drift.


That’s fair, but there are other letters and interviews where he denounces what I would call “rule by state”.
A “pseudo-monarchy” can be a form of anarchy as long as the monarch’s rule is agreed upon by every person, thru a consensual contract. Tolkien was a devout catholic, and I’m inclined to believe that his “perfect” system would be one where a king — crowned by god — would rule as god [would]. Meaning a benevolent king that does not interfere in people’s lives unless they willing seek out the king/god. But I’ll agree that if this were the case, a true anarchy would never exist (according to Tolkien,) by the fact that god has omnipotence.


I might be misinformed, what’s the full context? There are several letters and a couple interviews where he claims his disdain for politics and government, mainly democracy. His support of “unconditional monarchy”, where a monarch has no political power whatsoever, isn’t an out of place idea in anarchist circles.


And #nostr.


Hobbits are an allegory for “even the little and seemingly powerless people can change the world”. That’s #bitcoin.

On September 11, 2001, innocent Americans were lost in an attack that sparked an erroneous 'war on terror.' This ill-fated campaign has since claimed the lives of American servicemen and women, as well as civilians, and has also led to the annexation of freedoms and privacy through the passage of the PATRIOT Act.

Tyrants, whether terrorists or governments, are not to be trusted or befriended. Whoever centralizes power and regards innocent human beings as 'puppets for a cause' is a grave evil that demands disobedience. No life is an end to a means; man is not a sacrificial animal — we don’t destroy, we create.

Live for yourself, because there’s no one else more worth living for. Yet, never forget the countless lives lost to the relentless pursuit of tyranny, a darkness that will not rest until every last vestige of freedom is extinguished.

It’s a nightmare because fiat money is enforced and controlled by the state. Sure, you can do a p2p transaction, but the IRS will audit you. All the commies who claim we are living under “free market capitalism”, and that it’s “failing us” are delusional.


Nice!


The claim that #bitcoin has no “intrinsic value”, besides its scarcity, is senseless. Sure, a bitcoin might not be a physical coin (even though electrons and bits in logic gates on a computer are equally as real as the atoms in a gold bullion), but the service Bitcoin provides is valuable. It’s the only money that is on a decentralized and verifiable open ledger; the only money that’s infinitely divisible; the only money that can be held in one’s head across time and space; the only money that’s non-inflationary (and in some instances deflationary); the only money that is cryptographically secure; the only money that is purposefully engineered to be money; and much more.

“Bitcoin doesn’t physically exist, it has no value.”
If that’s true then no piece of information ever has any value — that’s a verifiably false assumption (philosophy, language, science…)

As much as I like the Austrian school of economics, I don’t like calling it an “economic system”. Free markets are not some system that needs to be put in place to work correctly.

Dismissing evolution is asinine. As you said, every process, be it human innovation or natural evolution, is about adaptation, trial and error; nothing is stagnant.

Now there’s one thing I disagree with. Evolution and innovation are somewhat fundamentally different. Innovation is a thought out process designed to achieve some desired outcome; evolution does not have any desired outcome (besides survival). There are tons of examples of redundant or inefficient “solutions” in evolution, since the evolutionary process is that of random mutations — if it works it works. In innovation you want to be as efficient and cost effective as possible, evolution does not care (it can’t care, it’s just an autonomous process).

#Anarchy and freedom are not the absence of order, but the presence of self-organization and voluntary cooperation. When individuals take responsibility for their own lives, and freely choose to work together, you have an anarchistic synergy. The state is a leech that destroys the autonomous mechanisms of human action and “the invisible hand.”

Looking forward to the day when the sats I have zapped my #nostr friends can buy them something nice.


Of course. I’m all for cryptographically solving the old world’s problems.


Yes, of course. I’m just slow today, sorry.

Make your own keys “Hey this is me: *npub*”
Relays and authority “Sure, one identity, one key, one vote. Go ahead”.


Sure, I can see that. But now we are left with another problem: if there is a central authority issuing your keys, how can you be certain that the keys are safe?
I’m not against the idea, but if the “solution” requires some form of central authority to verify your identity, then you don’t need to cryptographically sign anything. Show up, prove your identity, put a ballot in a box.
The benefit of cryptographically signing a ballot would probably be a verifiable ledger (which could be verifiable by (nostr?)relays).

I might have misunderstood what you meant by authority. Another solution I just thought of could be that you make your own keys (no central issuer), an authority verifies your identity and logs it. If you show up again to vote with another set of keys the person verifying your identity would stop you. In this scenario the ledger and the keys would not be controlled by an authority. But there’s still some trust involved; you would have to trust that the central authority itself isn’t cheating.


Witzig!


Surely it would be possible to broadcast a vote to relays for verification, like the Bitcoin network.
Now, how would you ensure that each user only has access to one set of keys (to mitigate the ability to vote several times) without some form of KYC?

On the state level, the most advantageous voting system would be a foolproof system where no matter how many tried to cheat, the result wouldn’t matter because the state would have no power to do jack shit either way.


#Anarchy is the default anatomy of human society. All exchanges — be it, free trade, information sharing, public discourse, friendships or disputes — are based upon human action and voluntarism. It’s a free moving balance; no coercion and no force needed.


“Cyber Warfare”? “If you don’t police your platforms, we will hold you accountable”? This is some nazi-level rhetoric and propaganda. This is why the 2A exists, but Americans are too afraid to act. Land of the free, home of the brave? Land of the enslaved, home of the weak.

Interesting, I don’t know too much about Steinbeck so I’ll have to look into that, thank you.

I don’t know if Rand would be totally opposed to that. There are people born with defects of all sorts (mental and physical), but one says that [the average] man is born a certain way and according to certain rules. There will always be instances of malformed people (as explained by Mr. Steinbeck in your quote), but they’re not the norm.

I like Rand a lot, but I wouldn’t call myself an all out religious objectivist. I follow reason where I see reason, and she just happened to be rational pretty often.


I agree with Ayn Rand on this. Human are by nature neither evil, nor good. Humans are blank sheets; we equally have the capacity to manifest good and evil. It’s our choices and decisions that determine who and what we are. Being good leads to human flourishing, “goodness” is good exactly because of this reason. But you have to act upon it, don’t be a passive observer of life, live it to the best possible standards; you make your own life, you decide your own standards.

Never read/seen hunger games. But it’s an interesting trope. I love it in the context of Star Wars. First 3 movies follow the classic hero/monomyth story. Then the prequel movies turn that trope upside down. I can image hunger games doing something like this too.


Everything you do reflects your character. If #nostr sucks, you suck. If you are good, nostr will too. Simple as that.


Stop reading the news. If you want to read fiction, at least read some good books.


Never had red blackberries. Guessing they’re unripe?


Memes are mightier than the sword.


I love the Star Wars Prequels, though they have their flaws. They are a perfect exposé of the immorality of democracy, the destruction of freedom through “passionate” politics, the dangers of gov’t emergency powers during (orchestrated) crises, the effect of destroying the truth to serve the rulers needs… The end of episode 3 is especially potent; watching all the pieces fall in place transforming a corrupt republic into its only logical conclusion, an empire. And in the end, the only difference between the old republic and the new empire is in name only. The same old senators and corrupt officials are in control.

These movies “radicalized” me in elementary school. Haven’t seen ‘em? Much to learn, you still have.

No problem is fixed by giving the government more power. Government can fuck the fuck off, period. Let people be free, citizens or not, the government has no business meddling with the choices of free people. If you give gov’t an inch, they’ll get another, and another, and another…


Free up the market, build more houses. Don’t give commies an inch of breathing space.

Europe in general is turning to shit. Sad to see, but “the masses” brought this on themselves — the immorality and evilness of democracy.


Nothing orange-pills you more than listening to fiat plebs discussing fiat economics.


The deadliest hexes are the simplest ones.


If more regular people were informed of the rise in M2 supply instead of the the CPI “actual inflation rate” lies, that the government and its lackeys shove down our throats, the central bank and its centrally controlled monetary system would crumble at an accelerated rate. “Inflation is only 2%, right? No need to panic, your benevolent overlords know what’s best for you.”


“Nobody wants to ban bitcoin. Only 12 year olds in their mother’s basement know about it. Actual money is made in real estate.”

These people neither understand #bitcoin nor economics nor freedom. These are the people who actually want to “ban” bitcoin. This is how early we are.


Every lost sat is a donation to all bitcoiners.

I woke up.


Verifiable, free, privately/community owned local #bitcoin reserves. Where anyone can chip in as little or as much as they want at any time. Where every transaction is on display for everyone to see. If it weren’t for the government raping you and plundering half++ of what you own, this would already be a thing. nostr:note15deypjfgl8mn3l4ekakvd7feaaxwrskl0fv9xun9mnpd0y797ryst0xn0x

World War I brought with it the end of sound money, and in turn the end of civilized society. WWI was the first fiat-war, and led to the 21th century being the bloodiest and most gruesome century in recorded history. As much as I find WWI warfare interesting, and blame it for the end of civilization, one must not forget the innocent lives lost, the conscripts forced to fight, and the soldiers who were lied to; government is the greatest evil — turning family disagreements into the worst war in ages by playing both sides of the war and using people as pawns in their little game.

Adventure — Anything by Jules Verne (20,000 leagues under the sea, around the world in 80 days). Read ‘em like crazy when I was younger.

Good memes


Bingo! It’s especially easy to control the people in welfare states. “Let’s make the populace be dependent on the state and make them believe the state works in their favor. They’ll trust everything the state says.” Pieces of paper in a box are easily forged as well, when all the “verification” is done by government appointees behind closed doors.


I’m convinced the majority of democracy-plebs don’t even believe in democracy themselves. Whenever a candidate they don’t like wins they cry about it, like the world is going to end. Is democracy really that good when the winner of the popularity contest has the omnipotence to “destroy our democracy”? These people have three brain cells and two of ‘em are on vacation.


Never understood “if you don’t vote, you have nothing to say”. It’s the other way around. You freely take part in the corrupt scheme, you believe in the “democratic process” (as long as it works in your favor); you have nothing to say, isn’t democracy what you want? I recognize democracy and elections as the charlatans they are, democracy-plebs believe they can change the system through a referendum controlled by a central authority — we are not the same.

To the dismay of all the gold bugs, the fact that bitcoin is not backed by anything physical (that can be stolen and taken away from you) is its strength. It’s digital, secured by cryptography, and can be protected and held in your brain. Gold, on the other hand, is shiny… sometimes.


“Brand yourself as a bootlicker and cast your vote for yet another statist”. None of it matters, it’s all a circus, a farce.


Elections are tools used by the state to make the blind populace believe their own voice matters. Half the time the blind populace’s opinions are manufactured and manipulated by companies and the media to serve the state’s agenda, and the other half of the time the elections are rigged. Actions speak louder than pieces of paper in ballot boxes; use #bitcoin and #nostr to truly become free.

I don’t have to like what you’re saying, but on #nostr you’re free to say it.


Politicians, bureaucrats, state institutions, voters… are all the lying mouth of collectivism. Collectivism is the malignant growth that spreads thru the false narrative of “we’re stronger when we work together, for each other, not for ourselves”.

When the discourse is “what *more* should the government do?” and not “do we *even* need a government?”, then the collectivist are winning.

It’s not all grim dark, though. Every new #bitcoin and #nostr user is an anti-collectivist in the making.

#FuckTheGovernment


Call it what you want, communism/fascism, it’s all the same. This is a war between collectivism and individualism. Collectivism and all its apologists are hiding behind the guise of “equality, democracy, security…”,  while causing the cancer to spread thru the west. Each and every collectivist is a narcissistic, power hungry, corrupt, and evil liar; those who claim a central authority can control the economy (culture, society, or anything else) seem to believe it’s some sort of plaything, and not a decentralized, living and breathing interpersonal network that can only flourish and truly exist thru the actions of freethinking humans. Communists, nazis, democrats, republicans… there is no difference.


“You are what you eat” in a philosophical sense. If what you consume is of valuable substance you will flourish. Every action (and thus change) is initiated through the utilization of one’s rational thinking mind. To the degree one’s mind is toxic, so will the rest of one’s life and body reap the consequences — one can avoid reality, but not the consequences of avoiding reality.

Of course. When you can print the money and control everyone’s life through CBDCs there’s no incentive to hold Bitcoin. They’ll keep on telling themselves that it was the “correct” thing to do — something along the lines of “we don’t speculate”. And then they’ll turn the printers to max.

Great piece!


And better looking than 90% of new cars. Nothing but SUVs that all look alike.


Did some work on my car and I had a revelation. Cars built by unsound money are not meant to last. They’re cheaply built and designed to be difficult to repair yourself — because you’re not meant to. They’re built to last just long enough for you to buy or lease a new one — and let’s be honest, they prefer you leasing since “you’ll own nothing, and you’ll be happy”.

Making disposable EVs and hybrids because they’re good for the environment? They’re just that, disposable.
Carmakers have it all wrong. If they actually care about the environment (and consumer) they’d make a car that’s built to last, with quality materials, ICEs, that are easy and accessible to repair. A car like that could last decades, not 2-3 years like they do now.


The government’s a bunch of clowns. Fiat money doesn’t exist. The zeitgeist of fiat is a shared belief in a false apparition, an ignis fatuus. To trust fiat is to trust the whims of a will-o’-the-wisp.
1%, 2%, 3%…? It doesn’t matter. As long as there’s inflation the Cantillon Effect will continue to enrich the central bankers.

When it comes to Bitcoin, the best time to buy is always yesterday. Don’t let today become yesterday without stacking some sats.


The sun always shines above the clouds #bitcoin.


Try as they might, governments can’t break rudimentary physics. Energy can neither be created nor destroyed; the more units of economic energy you have, the less each unit will be worth.


The #100pushups #postr (Pushups and other stuff transmitted by relays) team is the most humble and dedicated team.


“Magic internet money” is still money. Can’t say the same about fiat.


Gotta put in the work.


Day 61 of #100pushups until #Bitcoin hits $100k.
80+20 decline.

Governments selling bitcoin now will want to (but will not be able to) buy back in a few years. This is your chance to win against governments.


Like Bitcoin, #nostr is for everyone.


Getting free food means getting to #stacksats


It’s not. Simple as that.


Day 60 of #100pushups until #Bitcoin hits $100k.
80+20 regular + a game of volleyball.

The average person doesn’t understand how truly large of a number 2^256 is. The probability that someone could randomly guess your private key is so insanely astronomically small. Your bitcoins are safe.


Exactly! Now, who is John Galt?


I love when friends want me to explain Bitcoin to them. As one of them said “Bitcoin’s here to stay. I don’t know a lot yet, but I’m learning”.


I believe I’ve fixed it.


Why does Microsoft Sharepoint alter my #HTML code after a while? I make the code, it works. After a while it has been altered by itself. Sharepoint adds .ExtendedClass in front of my selectors inside my <style>…</style>, and removes my <button></button> elements. #asknostr


Day 59 of #100pushups until #Bitcoin hits $100k.
80+20 regular + cardio.

Hope y’all stacked some sats while they still were cheap.


Knowledge is a value. Reading is the virtue.


One of the greatest and most important books ever written. Ayn Rand had a brilliant mind.


“Government” and “freedom” are a contradictory in terms.


Awesome books. They are awesome books. Bought a collection of 7 Barsoom (Mars) books last year which I finished in like a week or two.


Der Linksnationalismus ist in der französischsprachigen Welt populär. Auch in Quebec. Für den Rest der Europäer "Volk" und "Land" ist "Faschismus". Schade.


Do weighted for a couple of weeks. Next time you do normal pull-ups it’ll be a breeze.


Weighted pull-ups have really improved my performance. Highly recommend it — it makes a huge difference.


Day 58 of #100pushups until #Bitcoin hits $100k.
80+20 decline.

Trying out Dwarf Fortress for the first time. Anyone played it before?


Heading to Orlando in a couple of weeks. Any good places, activities, or attractions to visit #asknostr?


Day 57 of #100pushups until #Bitcoin hits $100k.
70+30 decline.

How many days left do you reckon?


#nostr is “not your keys, not your words.” There’s nothing more trustworthy than a cryptographically signed message.


Centralized exchanges are no better than fiat banks. You don’t own your money if someone else gets to decide what’s a “legitimate” transaction.


Day 56 of #100pushups until #Bitcoin hits $100k.
80+20 decline.

Anything exciting happening in Bitcoin space? Been playing guitar and reading all day — the good life.

The government is a criminal organization.


I use a trackball at work. It’s weird at first, but you just have to use it as much as possible to rewire some neurons. I don’t know how good the bearings are on the Kensington; if the ball is a little sticky you can try to upgrade the bearings.


Day 55 of #100pushups until #Bitcoin hits $100k.
70+30 decline.

The fact that buying/owning at least one whole bitcoin is still in reach for a large portion of bitcoiners today goes to show how early we all are.


#Bitcoin crash? One bitcoin is still worth one bitcoin #stacksats.


Day 54 of #100pushups until #Bitcojn hits $100k.
90+10 regular + cardio.

Finished reading “The Man in the High Castle” today. Surreal book #bookstr.


All government institutions are propaganda machines for a failing government.


America was the first nation to respect life, liberty, property, and the pursuit of happiness. America in her golden age was an unstoppable force of morality and freedom. Sadly, today she’s not.
As my dad says: I don’t love America “because of”, I love America “despite of”.

Happy Independence Day! 🇺🇸


There’s a reason the government doesn’t openly disclose all their data and sources. The one who controls “the truth” controls the agenda.


Day 53 of #100pushups until #Bitcoin hits $100k.
90+10 regular + a game of volleyball after work.

If state run schools actually taught how the central bankers artificially manipulate money and how 100% of taxes are wasted, there’d be no need for state run schools — it’d cease to exist. An informed populace is a “dangerous” populace.


Elections are the illusions of choice in of the theater play that is democracy. The actor who plays the villain gets paid just the same as the hero.
It’s a farce. Red? Blue? Doesn’t matter — big government wins either way.


The ones who believe the notion that the government will care for them are doomed.
Only you can save yourself; if you want to save yourself you need to sell your ever weakening shares in slavery. Freedom and prosperity are inoperable with fiat.


Fuck the government.


Absolutely, and it needs to be stopped.


This is terrible and evil. But still, this is what EU plebs “deserve” for not fighting back and for propping up the EU as a legitimate institution. As a general rule, the people get the state they deserve — Europeans as a whole have been too weak for too long.


When the rulers can’t handle the truth they deem everything they don’t like to be hateful. This is the result of having a centralized authority; this is evil.


Day 52 of #100pushups until #Bitcoin hits $100k.
90+10 regular + chest at the gym.

I love showing people the mathematics behind Bitcoin and why it’s so secure, and why it’s the only true freedom-money.


After years of assault, domestic violence, and stealing, the state still expects you to pay your “fair share” with a smile on your face. If this truly is the pinnacle of “civilized” society in a fiat world, then that world needs to burn.


They know that if (when) Bitcoin wins their prepotency will come down. From the pinnacle to the pit.


Wish I could.


Fucking unions making it just about impossible to negotiate pay and raises. Pisses me off.


Don’t have anyone to exchange L-BTC with, but I have it just in case I need it sometime in the future.


Self-education, when you’re invested, is almost always better than institutional-education.


Freedom is strengthened by the tenacious pursuit of innovation. New technologies decentralize power, and divide labor in ways never before imagined;
Gutenberg’s printing press ultimately led to Bitcoin;
Bitcoin ultimately leads to unthinkable freedoms.


Day 51 of #100pushups until #Bitcoin hits $100k.
80+20 regular.

My nostr:npub1mutnyacc9uc4t5mmxvpprwsauj5p2qxq95v4a9j0jxl8wnkfvuyque23vg just stopped working. Resetting the wallet probably works, but I don’t have my seed words readily available, gotta wait ‘till the weekend…
Hopefully the fedimint situation isn’t *too* too bad.


Just downloaded it.


Nothing is better than reading a good book.


I can devour a good 300 page book in a few hours (that’s including breaks) #bookstr.


Just discovered Bitcoin bank notes (https://offline.cash/). Reminds me of Goldbacks. Anyone heard of this before #asknostr?


Day 50 of #100pushups until #Bitcoin hits $100k.
70+30 decline.

The fact that you can cross country borders while no one knows you have money stored in your head, still boggles my mind. Bitcoin is forsooth the only borderless money.


“Power attracts the corruptible. Suspect anyone who seek it.” — Frank Herbert, Chapterhouse: Dune


Absolutely!


I love arriving early to the airport. I can sit, relax, and read a book. And get this, I get to read on the plane too! Truly magnificent. Just started reading “The Man in the High Castle” by Philip K. Dick.
#bookstr


That’s kinda cool. Might have to download aqua just to familiarize myself with Liquid.


I have the Pepsi version. It’s a good watch.


What are the benefits over lightning?


GM!


Thinking about buying a gold bullion. I don’t know, maybe it will catch on sometime. Governments can confiscate it though. If only there was something even better…


Economics is a pseudoscience. Anyone who claims to know how to control the economy is either evil, stupid, or both.


Day 49 of #100pushups until #Bitcoin hits $100k.
80+20 regular.

Anyone using L-BTC? Is it worth trying out? #asknostr


I’m afraid that’s the state of most people.


Well said. When a society stops seeking the truth, that society is doomed.


I’ve noticed that the same people who blame “free markets” for consumerism are the same who will claim that “inflation is necessary for economic growth”.
Cognitive dissonance will always be in vogue.


DuckDuckGo has a privacy email thing that generates a new email every time you use it and forwards to your main email address.
Proton Mail also has the ability to generate new email addresses for one-time-use.


Bitcoin ist besser als alle andere Gut. Es ist das einzige Gut, das Sie kryptografisch und matematisch beweisen können.


Take control of what you can. Spend your life, your scarce time, with the people you love.
Don’t be a nihilist, make life worth living; enjoy good books, listen to good music, grow better.
You don’t have the omnipotence to change everything, but if you buy #bitcoin time will do the rest for you.

“No structure, even an artificial one, enjoys the process of entropy. It’s the ultimate fate of everything, and everything resists it.”
— Philip K. Dick


“Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance and the gospel of envy.”
- Winston Churchill


If you want to make a difference sell your fiat for Bitcoin. Make the central bankers bleed, and watch their hegemony crumble.


Day 48 of #100pushups until #Bitcoin hits $100k.
60+40 decline.

Freedom is never free. If you’re getting something “for free” know that someone, somewhere had their freedoms taken away from them. A “welfare” state only redistributes the misery of the people.


Vote with your money.


Democracy is evil.


You’ll never have enough.


It truly is. It’s just to make a quick buck since inflation and Keynesianism stole the rest.


The remixes of several Beatles albums (especially Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band) are criminal. All the instruments have been panned and mixed together into a sludge. “It’s remastered for modern audiences,” if that’s the case then modern audiences are not worth pandering to if it means destroying the artist’s intentions.


Day 47 of #100pushups until #Bitcoin hits $100k.
70+30 decline + weighted pull-ups at the gym.

Working out is such an awesome thing. It feels amazing. It’s a lot of hard work, but the confidence you gain and the pride you feel is worth everything.


But the “extremists” are the ones who want freedom, peace, and sound money? It’s all rigged.


Governments are afraid of self-custody because it implies self-ownership and sovereignty, which undermines the government and its propaganda.


VanillaOS on my MacBook and Fedora Linux on my Mac Studio.


It is very good. It’s “The Bitcoin Standard” just in fiction form.


I usually start by explaining how the gold standard was/is better than today’s fiat system. Most people can agree on that. Then I take a 180 and explain why gold isn’t the end all be all, and how bitcoin fixes gold’s shortcomings.


“People shouldn't be afraid of their government. Governments should be afraid of their people”
— Alan Moore, V for Vendetta.

Strong encryption and decentralized protocols and networks are making this true. #Nostr and #bitcoin are peaceful weapons against government censorship and tyranny.


I’ve always loved “A Princess of Mars” by Edgar Rice Burroughs. A story about an a virtuous American man fighting Martian communists and winning the heart of a beautiful princess — what more could you ask for? It’s the perfect hero’s journey; the monomyth will always — anywhere at anytime — be relevant #bookstr.


Day 46 of #100pushups until #Bitcoin hits $100k.
70+30 regular.

Started reading The Mandibles, hooked so far. It reminds me a little of Atlas Shrugged #bookstr.


What a great book. Satoshi is the real Ragnar Danneskjöld — a true hero.


“Free”


Reading The Mandibles now, I’m hooked!


The amount of people who actually believe that the fiat money system is a “free market” staggers me. It’s a cancer.


One doesn’t become a bitcoiner by studying #bitcoin. One studies everything except for bitcoin, and then logically concludes that “bitcoin fixes this.”


More taxes and more wars — what could possibly go wrong?


That’s true. The best teacher I had would show articles from sources all over the political spectrum. He didn’t take any standpoints and wanted each and every student to analyze ‘em for themselves. The papers were not graded based on a student’s convictions, but by how well a student could think coherently.


You learn a lot by spotting BS, and you get better at it the more you do it. I remember my history teacher tried to blame free markets for the Great Depression. Couldn’t let her get away with that without causing a ruckus.


Ask any college student if inflation is necessary and you’ll hear “too much inflation is bad, but the fed says we need a 2% rate” and that’s about it.

Funny thing is that I did great in school. Not because I had to, but because I wanted to learn. I’ve learned more the last couple years by taking education into my own hands, instead of the government’s.


Day 45 of #100pushups until #Bitcoin hits $100k.
60+40 decline.

I’m in a weird position where I want to learn and acquire as much knowledge/education as possible, but I don’t want to spend thousands to get a degree. I can learn just about everything from open sources on the internet without having to pay a sat. I know I’m not the only one — schools are failing.


No. Some people might be more able to do certain things from the get go, and some people learn things at a faster rate, but every skill still needs to be nurtured. We’re born tabula rasa (blank slates) and it’s up to ourselves to acquire the tools, skills, and knowledge necessary to produce anything of value.

The “naturally smart” philosopher was not born with the privilege of reason, he had to learn it.

A person with two fingers who puts in the work will be better at guitar than any virtuoso who doesn’t practice; even the virtuoso is not born with the innate skill of “guitar playing”.

Only a trained baker can make consistently good pies. Someone might be naturally “good” at making mud-pies; but that’s not a talent — rather a lack-there-of.


Using the heat from a bitcoin miner is not a bad idea. There are a couple space heaters on the market. One could also use a thermoelectric generator to generate electricity.


Greatness. To learn from the Greats who came before me, or to achieve something great myself.


It’s a public ledger. That’s the point — anyone can verify any transaction.


I don’t care too much for podcasts, but when I see a 3 hour long podcast with nostr:npub15dqlghlewk84wz3pkqqvzl2w2w36f97g89ljds8x6c094nlu02vqjllm5m I click faster than the speed of sats.


The words of a wise man.


Oh, how I hate the government…


Cut them into smaller chunks and oven bake them with carrots, potatoes, parsnips; use a good amount of oil, salt and pepper; 400-420 Fahrenheit, 45-60 minutes.
Have that as a side for steak or something.


Day 44 of #100pushups until #Bitcoin hits $100k.
60+40 decline + chest at the gym.

Doing 100 pushups every day has made a huge impact on my bench press performance.


I read at least an hour every day. Last year I read almost 100 books. A good mix of philosophy, economics, history, and great adventure and science fiction novels (morally good heroes are inspiring and necessary).


Coworkers told me Bitcoin was “crashing”. First thing I did was to stack some sats. Bitcoin’s on sale!


This is the first thing people should think about before they mess around.
Abortion wouldn’t be a discussion if people acted on reason.


If the answer to “who controls the money, who controls the ledger?” is “the government” you don’t have capitalism.

There’s no freedom of the press without separation of state and media.
There’s no freedom of thought without separation of state and religion.
There’s no freedom of markets without separation of state and money.


“No, Officer, I don’t own any Bitcoin. I lost them all at sea when I went fishing.”


DuckDuckGo, Startpage when I need more search results (in DuckDuckGo you can write !s in front of you query and it automatically searches through Startpage).


Who knows, but you look damn cool in a good pair of sunglasses. Plus, a bit more privacy.


Boating accidents.


Day 43 of #100pushups until #Bitcoin hits $100K.
80+20 regular.

I love jazz, I enjoy blues, I adore classical, but doom metal has to be the coolest music ever. Downtuned, fuzzy, slow, madness, with epic mythological lyrics — what’s not to love?


Every bitcoiner should read Jules Verne. Novels full of adventure, technology, science, and inspiring characters — just like #Bitcoin #bookstr.


Day 42 of #100pushups until #Bitcoin hits $100K.
60+40 decline.

Today’s straight “price-line” is mesmerizing to look at. Let’s see how long that lasts…


Fiat and war has always gone hand in hand.


Using my nostr:npub1wu4aye7ll0lnrrg638e90sehzsgpzx5t39t3mwl05aa0d0ap08esdz3vw0 #Coldcard Mk4 as a password manager. Awesome little piece of technology.


Yeah. Might have to get it on a MacBook as well. I love the form factor and design of the new Macs.


First read it when I was 16 or something. Read it again last year. What a brilliant read — I wasn’t all in on Bitcoin back then, I am now.


As long as every central banker and politician breathes communism still breathes.


Satlas Shrugged.


Great book!


Certain x86 apps that work fine on macOS through Rosetta don’t work (Steam is an example). It’s not a dealbreaker, I still have a macOS partition, but it’s not a do-it-all OS. And for some reason I couldn’t connect it to one of my WiFi networks at home (it could be that I misspelled the password though).


And then you have the guys who aren’t even pretending to work, they refuse to work because of “the capitalism is the bad”. Waste of perfectly good air.


Worst piece of fiction I’ve ever read.


It’s fucking fairy tale bullshit.


I have a Nerdaxe. It’s mostly just a novelty, but it’s still securing the network — every hash matters. I’m thinking about preordering the new Braiins BMM 100.


Running nostr:npub1hpwuqgk7w8cfcuyrjk7pwcl3gf652ssgnq8ylfmh3av489tuhl6q9qcd0d Asahi #Linux on my Mac Studio M2.

70+30 decline.

Just got home from my trip, haven’t been much online. I’m guessing it’s still #stacksats season?


If those are the only two options — period — then I’ll have to go with KYC self custody. Not your keys not your bitcoin.


Even a broken clock is more accurate than fiat economists.


“You should take [Keynesians (and the like)] a *little* seriously. They might have some good arguments.”

 I beg to differ, you shouldn’t take them seriously at all. Fiat economist are the mathematicians who claim 2+2=5. It’s just plain wrong, you can’t take these guys seriously — it’s all fairytale nonsense. That which fails simple arithmetic is pure pseudoscience, and should be swept aside immediately — that’s the Litmus test.


I’m a leave-me-the-fuck-alone-ist. Mostly a mix of Objectivism (minarchism) and Anarcho-Capitalism; Laissez faire absolutist.


Day 40 of #100pushups until #Bitcoin hits $100K.
60+40 regular.

I love it when friends ask for book recommendations. Just recommended Human Action by Mises #bookstr.


She’s my favorite author, such a great mind.


I first read Anthem when I was 15/16 and it quickly became my one of my favorite books (novellas). Started reading Atlas Shrugged right away.


Nicomachean Ethics, Aristotle. Besides that anything Ayn Rand, if I hadn’t read all her fiction books already.


Anything Ayn Rand is always correct!


Ayn Rand is always the correct answer!


#Bitcoin isn’t volatile; everything else is volatile compared to #Bitcoin.


Your personal health data will not be accessible by others.


Lesen piratkopierten Bücher.


No, it’s #nostr.


Day 39 of #100pushups until #Bitcoin hits $100K.
60+40 decline.

The hotel I’m staying at in Scotland has whiskeys on display that are twice my age. This is the beauty of delayed gratification.


Use the excess heat to run a thermoelectric generator, or a stirling engine to produce electricity? But it sounds like a conservation of energy issue. You will not be able to cool the same room the miner is in by any noticeable amount. The heat needs to go somewhere.

I’ve explain to my coworkers, who are wasting money placing bets on the Euro Soccer games, that their money would be better spent stacking sats. They don’t want to listen.


Something something “Bitcoin was unfairly distributed, you just got lucky”…


Day 38 of #100pushups until #Bitcoin hits $100K.
60+40 decline.

“It’s too late for me to buy bitcoin.”
*Bitcoin falls to 64K*
“It’s too volatile, I’m not buying something that’s crashing.”

You can never win with these guys. Have fun staying poor I guess.


Cool, I’ll check it out!


Cool! GrapheneOS works well on all google tablets?


Anyone running #Linux on a Microsoft Surface tablet? Love my iPad, but the OS is malware. #asknostr

Encryption is math. Arithmetic is the branch of math that encompasses simple operations like addition and subtraction. That is what encryption is on the base level — think XOR operations.


Anthem is short and very good — perfect place to start.
Atlas Shrugged is her magnum opus — it’s awesome, but looong.
We The Living is not about politics or economics (if you don’t like that), but it’s still heavily anti-communist (which is always a plus).
Virtue of Selfishness is a good read if you want an introduction to Objectivism (non-fiction).


Banning encryption is banning arithmetic.


Day 37 of #100pushups until #Bitcoin hits $100K.
60+40 decline.

I’ve started to say “Bitcoin fixes this” to almost everything I encounter that doesn’t work optimally.


If you’re ever feeling alone, just know that there are thousands of computers securing your freedom every second of the day.


Thank you all for the recommendations. I’m going to go with Princess of Mars nostr:note1fegqttl9dd248z6ergjxsn35mf22yal7j59kpsyf2rch262n8ghquhqgzw


It’s an awesome book. One of my favorites!


If you like adventure then you must read Jules Verne (20,000 leagues under the sea…) and Edgar Rice Burroughs (A princess of mars, Tarzan).


Day 36 of #100pushups until #Bitcoin hits $100K.
60+40 decline.

Visiting Scotland. The countryside is beautiful.


Democracy is a sham. It’s a show we’re all forced to buy tickets to. And while we’re fed fake entertainment the circus directors laugh all the way to the bank.


Doesn’t matter who you vote for, it’s all a circus. Elections are illusions of choice; in the end big government wins either way.

A populace that believes they can change the world thru a piece of paper in a ballot box will always lose out to the ones who control the ballot boxes.


Day 35 of #100pushups until #Bitcoin hits $100K.
70+30 regular.


The winner! nostr:note1um3k4469n46uz02hvq6c5cyvwze8knapcc538j2ktyqvl8rftpnsgzehjx


Reply with a photo of your cat. The cutest cat will receive 1000 sats.
#catstr #satsforcats #grownostr


Open-source providers.


Day 34 of #100pushups until #Bitcoin hits $100K.
70+30 regular.

Wish I had more fiat to sell right now. Alas, I’ve sold it all for #sats.


Everything should be free and open-source, including government #FOSS.


Exercise is exactly like #Bitcoin. When you first started going to the gym you’d progress quickly. And when the first miners started to mine bitcoin they got huge rewards.

To see similar results today you have to do more work — but that does not mean that the work put in is wasted.
It becomes harder and harder to grow, but when you look yourself in the mirror you will see a stronger and better version of yourself; that’s worth all the work in the world; that’s #ProofOfWork #PoW #nostr.


Second this.


It’s all make believe…


Day 33 of #100pushups until #Bitcoin hits $100K.
60+40 decline.

Long day at work — arrive early and work overtime. The last couple weeks have been long. But, the weekend’s just around the corner! Hang on and #stacksats!


Day 32 of #100pushups until #Bitcoin hits $100K.
60+40 decline + pull-ups at the gym — hit a new record.

Hope y’all stacked some sats during the sale. Was a good day.


GM!


Yeah, doesn’t work like that.


There’s no need in banning them. The ones who criticize #bitcoin and #nostr are like the old men who yell at clouds; they’ll out themselves as fools.

“The ability to speak does not make you intelligent.”


Boot from the USB and install to the computer’s SSD drive?


Working on it! I’m racing Bitcoin to 100 days before it breaks 100k. So far I’m looking good, but when the exchanges start to run dry on their reserves the price will climb significantly.


LFG 🫡


Day 31 of #100pushups until #Bitcoin hits $100K.
60+40 decline.

Good day to stack sats!


The Emerson, Lake & Palmer version is incredible!


Haven’t read yet, but I’ve heard good things. I’m planning to read The Pillars of the Earth.


The EU is a criminal organization.


#Bitcoin is on sale. Stack #sats!


Robosats. Exchange bitcoin for bitcoin.


Day 30 of #100pushups until #Bitcoin hits $100K.
60 + 40 decline.

I get paid tomorrow — ready to stack some sats.


What’s the freest (economically and socially) country as of right now? #asknostr

Seriously thinking about moving. The government’s illicit schemes are killing me.


“We have to centrally plan the economy to save the planet from … clouds” 🤡


Collect ‘em like Pokémon cards — The new fun game to play with all your friends: How many “[statist] blocked you” can you collect?!


Maybe more people should do this… Spend your time with the people who want to spend theirs with yours.


Day 29 of #100pushups until #Bitcoin hits $100K.
60+40 decline.

Live on the Bitcoin Standard and you’ll be immune to inflation.


Dang, I can’t write #coffee apparently…


Easy and fast little lunch:
Sliced pepperoni, sliced ham, sausages, and an egg all cooked together in the same pan in its own fat (+ a little butter for the egg). All accompanied by a cup of #coffe.


Exactly right.


Must’ve been awesome. When I played in a band we used to shake the whole house.
Never played a 7/8 string, haven’t had the need for it. But I have used octave pedals to achieve lower notes on my guitar/bass.


Haven’t gone that far yet 😂
But that rumble must be insane.


Day 28 of #100pushups until #Bitcoin hits $100K.
50x2 decline.

Bought a Bitcoin baseball cap with Bitcoin. Who said you can’t use Bitcoin to buy anything?


My new favorite guitar tuning is double drop D - DADGBD.
Great for beautiful open chords.
