I just ordered some RAM from newegg. Paid with bitcoin, and the order confirms with 0 conf. Pretty cool

I have a weakly held opinion that recent advances in medicine and healthcare wouldn’t have happened as fast without fiat financing and our whacky insurance based system. But it was essentially a faustian bargain where we gained miraculous powers of healing in exchange for consumerist society, globalization of key resources, and inflation. As a species we chose to become lich kings.

The human understanding when it has once adopted an opinion (either as being the received opinion or as being agreeable to itself) draws all things else to support and agree with it. And though there be a greater number and weight of instances to be found on the other side, yet these it either neglects and despises, or else by some distinction sets aside and rejects, in order that by this great and pernicious predetermination the authority of its former conclusions may remain inviolate. -Francis Bacon

I miss zapping on mobile. Do we have any avenues for convincing apple to permit this in the app store? Can we flood one of their inboxes with explanations as to how Damus (or any app) does not handle any transactions, but rather just displays the results of transactions?

Some great quotes from my barber- On haircuts (and life): You don’t get better results by trying harder. It’s not about effort, it’s about practice and execution. On his sister: Well, she’s a single mom now, but I think she’s got what she wanted. She’s a liberal, you know
