So I'm learning high school chemistry from The Teaching Company's HS Chemistry 2nd ED Videos with Frank Cardulla. He's a great instructor, but in our first 'problem' example to get us thinking, he asks: If we have 3000 students in a school, and 30 students fit in each class room, how many rooms does the school need. Of courser the answer he was looking for is a very logical 100. The only thing I am more than logical, is jaded. So of course my answer was 'there's no way of telling how many rooms are needed, because we don't know how many administrators per student, or administrators per teacher' they are utilizing, and they will need at least HALF the infrastructure it takes to do the thing that the school is there to do, in order to 'administrate' 'the school' doing it, right? image

So for the first time I'm going to give my clients the option to pay their invoices in Bitcoin via lightening. I've got my Wallet of Satoshi, but haven't really used it much, and haven't received anything. While I don't think anyone will bite right off the bat, I want to be sure it doesn't fail and embarrass me! As I understand it, this code should allow the recipient to pay whatever amount they choose (for them, hopefully their invoiced amount!) So what I'm wondering if maybe one or two folks here would just toss a couple of sats at this just so I know it works before I send it out? I really appreciate any help. image

The fact of the matter is, if a politician tells you that they don't believe that 'taxation is theft', it can ONLY mean that they believe YOU are the PROPERTY of the government he or she represents.

If you can be thrown in jail for having contempt for the court system ( 'contempt of court' ) then how could you possibly NOT have contempt for the court?

I had a bit of a disagreement with a captcha... I had to 'refresh' because I refused to call any of these 'motorcycles'. #GrowNostr #ScootersAreOKButTheyreScooters image

@Jack Spirko 's TSPC episode from yesterday ( www.thesurvivalpodcast.com/tsprw-242 ) reminded me of this preMeme meme: "We all dream of a world of sunshine happiness and peace. The problem is, Half of the people think it sounds like a wonderful place to live, the other half think it sounds like a wonderful place to pillage." I think Jack's 10% theory is closer to the reality but yea... image

Fiat is what it is, and I will utilize it to the extent that it benefits me. To me, the point with bitcoin is that I now have a second option of what to hold my value in other than dollars and things denominated in dollars which means I no longer have to go down with the fiat ship as it continues its intended, and mathematically necessary, plunge into ruin.
