 Marx was a reactionary retard who would conclude nests with eggs give birth to chickens. 
 Almost as retarded as the Fabians

 The ideal solution is if you cared enough to vote, you would meet the dead simple requirements. Voting is easy enough as it is. Should be harder imo.  
 They can meet them, they lack the will.  
 Grain video today? Idk... Editing takes forever with kids and I can't do it at my day job.  
 Done editing. Just need to add in some background music and level voice audio

 BAN TRUNK OR TREATING  
 Yes. Community is in your neighborhood. There is no one closer geographically. Trunk or treat is the main cause for the tradition of Halloween dying out. I want to see my neighborhood filled with decorations and every house handing out candy with kids flooding the streets. I want to ban trunk or treating because is has regressed community and tradition of Halloween. We get a dozen kids in the whole neighborhood  and only one in every ten houses participates. I am striving for community. 🫂 Our children deserve the same Halloween experiences we got.  
 There is no number  
 Dude... Literally thought of this scene when I commented. Almost posted a gif.  
 Why can't I stop buying new gear! For real though, for $28 you can't beat it. $28 shipped, with AC adapter.

 I can show 32 gb of ddr4 ram in here and a 4tb hard drive.  
 This is what I'm replacing pip-boy with. She'll be named Rosie  
 immich and nextcloud storage for the village (family and friends)  
 I keep the porn on my 14tb mirrored hhds. (JK of course but that is the storage I have for my Plex server. I'll be going to jellyfin soon too) 
 If this isn't the cheapest, most capable #Bitcoin node you can get I'd like to see it.

 This will replace pip-boy. Her name will be Rosie. Check my past few notes to see pip-boy. It's a windows server that runs my Plex server as well as a host for a few other things when I'm testing.  
 No hard drive but yep.

 Just ask, iPhone or Android and tell them to get amethyst or damus. You obviously don't need an actual web invite to join nostr. You did it in person.

 I put hardware enthusiast in my bio because whenever I show a cool new computer to someone for something I'm using at the home lab, the general response I get is "that's cool I guess". Meanwhile I think it's the coolest shit ever.

 Idk... New Bitcoin implementations should be proceeded with caution. I certainly won't replace core with it. I may run it alongside though.

 What's the case against giving relays npubs and where can I read about it? #askdevs  
 Probably better to just refer to the owner npub in the NIP11. I have thought about making an npub for my relays before though. It could be done now and used as the owner npub.  
 Hm? What for?  
 The owner could make some sort of event that defines one I suppose.

 It's not preferable. Hoping Ark can illuminate a better solution.  
 Then you're just locked into the mint... eCash is even worse custodially... There is no way to verify mint holdings because of the privacy aspects.  
 It's custodial lightning with extra steps

 This is why grain was built. Not to be a mega relay that I can run, but to be a highly customizable relay any individual can run to suit their own personal needs.  
 Borrowing money to buy Bitcoin never ends well 
 It does if the loan is for longer than a cycle and the rate is near 0.

 That is probably the case. I'll have to look more closely at it. Trying to make this video on the code base before I make more changes. Thank you for the report though! Keep em coming.  
 Awesome. I will add this to the list to fix in the next release.

 Military for example. Self organized armies will on most occasions fail to defeat a centraly planned one. They lack the coordination made possible by centralization. The exception is when the Central authority makes a big mistake. Decentralized systems will make less mistakes over time.  
 Not ending their life is "forcing them to be born". Life is in fact preferable to death.

 Less safe if you wear a maga hat though.
