📆 4 years ago this week: Canadian trucker protests get de-banked and turn to Bitcoin, raising over $1 million worth of funds. No bank, no centralized platform, no politicians deciding how much they can receive or how they can spend it. 🗽 💛 💙 Shortly after, Russia invaded Ukraine, and Ukraine becomes the first country to crowdfund a war with Bitcoin. When banks abandoned service in Ukraine due to "risk" and "liquidity issues", Bitcoin was there for Ukraine. To date they have received $51M worth of Bitcoin, receiving over ten whole BTC in the past six months alone 😲. No middlemen, no NGO taking a cut, no international wire fees and delays, no "explain why you're sending money to Ukraine or we won't let the transaction through", just money going exactly where it needs to go with no interruptions. Bitcoin is freedom money, it will be there for you when you need it. Nobody can stop a Bitcoin transaction no matter how rich or powerful they are. 16 years, 24/7, 365 days a year. #bitcoin #truckers #ukraine #freedom Ukraine official BTC address

Question for #linux users, I have been using and enjoying Linux #mint for years, I like the release schedule and Ubuntu base. And I like that they de-snapify everything. I am considering switching to #kde but when googling installing kde on mint, everyone seems to be advising against it, claiming it will lead to instability. It used to be common for users to install multiple DEs alongside each other. Is that no longer the case? What would be easier and more stable, de-snapping Kubuntu or installing KDE on top of Mint #XFCE? #asknostr #question #advice #technology #linux

An obvious premise to an uncomfortable reality in seven steps 1. Media companies answer to their advertisers, not to you. Advertisers are the customer, you are the product 2. Media companies don't produce content which offends the advertisers or their target demographic 3. Advertisers want to sell you stuff and if you stop watching because you get offended or aren't engaged, you won't buy the stuff 4. This leads to an inevitable bias in the content they produce towards the people who buy the stuff. 5. The question is: who buys the most stuff, and would therefore have a bias in their favor? 6. The answer: women. Women make 70-80% of consumer purchasing decisions 7. Media is biased in favor of women If you're wondering why so many headlines don't survive the "gender swap test", or why men are maligned in broad strokes in ways you aren't allowed to do to other groups? This is one major underlying reason. #media #bias #feminism #gender

What are the current system requirements in terms of disk storage for a #Bitcoin pruned node, pruned to the maximum extent possible? What's the smallest VPS you could host it on? And is that size something that's true the whole time, or does it grow prior to pruning to the final size? For example, if the answer is 10GB, is there any point during the sync where it would need more than 10GB? #asknostr

It's moments like this when people understand the importance of having social media and money the government cannot control. You will never successfully challenge power using the infrastructure controlled by that same power. 🔇If they don't want you to hear about it, they can ask social media companies to scrub content, they have a long history of doing this, Zuckerberg testified to Congress about it. And Trump's acolytes now own TikTok. The danger is not mere censorship, but the ability to control even our perception of reality: what is true, what other people think, and your place in the world. 🙅If they want to make it difficult to receive funds for legal support etc, they have ways. They control the banks and our normal payment methods: ask anybody involved in the trucker protests what happened to their legal defense funds. Look into Biden admin's operation choke point to debank conservative activists and gun stores. Debanking is a real risk for people involved in dissent. 🙏But there are ways around it, thanks to a community of dedicated programmers who believe in free speech and communication. All of these tools are legal, free, open source, and have many years of history of use. 📢Decentralized social media the government cannot control: nostr.
