Orange pilling a copy writer who says she isn't techy but it appears she was on the Ubuntu media launch team and hung with Tim Berners Lee. Within an hour of listening to my potted history of Bitcoin she went straight down the stranded energy mining rabbit hole - a no-brainer human interest story - and is going to pitch a show to an experienced documentary maker. In other words, the bitcoin marketing community just got a little bit more weighty and creative. If I can pitch Nostr right, there will be a new source of content. Also any devs and bitcoin businesses with a good story to tell but missing the in-house panache to nail the message, will have access to a super copy writer.

From what I can gather, Madeira is some sort of digital nomad Bitcoiner paradise. After looking online at the island's property, cost of living, cultural stuff - wow. If you come from anywhere other than "poor" Southern Europe and are after a grounded and truly cost-effective homebase with space for food growing, animals, and easy going lifestyle - I see no reason to look further than rural Spain. Just saying.

Masmovil my prepaid tarrif is 100GB / month of data 10€/month with coverage from the 3 main networks combined. It's getting interesting for consumers and horrible for the wifi industry. And with say Reticulum installed among local friends, secure internet and offline "phone" communication has never been better.

AI is going to disrupt so fast, and governments are not equipped to react in time to try even out the major economic, employment and social disparities baked into the paradigm shift pie. Nothing new. A whole generation of bright young things passed through the Spanish higher education system and were released into the work world from the early 2000s onwards, well educated and willing, only to find that the government's investment department didn't get the memo about laying the groundwork for their employment opportunities on graduation. Germany and the UK say thanks! They recouped their investment in the education part of the EU budget and then some. Not being disparaging, but it could be argued that Spain boasts some of the best educated bar staff in Europe. Such a waste of priceless resources.

always look on the bright side of life. Just watch the GDP figures soar when society experiences: Divorce: The process of divorce can lead to increased spending on legal services, housing, and financial planning, stimulating various sectors of the economy. Illness or Disability: Health crises can drive demand for healthcare services, medical technology, and pharmaceuticals, leading to growth in the healthcare sector. Job Loss: While challenging for individuals, job loss can lead to retraining and reskilling initiatives, boosting employment in emerging industries and sectors. Family Emergencies: Situations like caring for a sick family member can lead to increased demand for home healthcare services and related industries. Substance Abuse Issues: The need for treatment and rehabilitation services can stimulate growth in healthcare and social services sectors, leading to job creation and economic activity. These social crises, while often difficult and painful, can create opportunities for economic growth and development in various sectors. Thanks Duck.ai for listing some of the absurdities behind the dumbed down statistical gauge of the health of this fiat economic system.

Angor sounds like a refreshing and inspiring option for aspiring entrepreneurs. The worst place in the world is inside the head of a creative person with no capital!

In 2008 I returned to UK after 3 years in the USA. Painting away, listening to the radio, I was shocked by what I was hearing on the BBC chat and current affairs shows. It sounded like straight up propaganda, no balance as they claim to offer unlike anywhere else. I mentioned it to my accountant and good friend, a very wise, straight up person, the sort who knows how things work. I expected him to dismiss it or defend the mighty Beeb. Instead he gave me one of his wry smiles and said, "Funny you should mention that." Where's that meme? the more you know the crazier you sound!

Been speaking to someone who owns btc and kinda believes in bitcoin but not really. My life view sounds like I'm a crazy person. They believe in fiat options, I don't. Help

Unpopular opinion but the chances are the vegans in your life are literally mad. Without b12 supplements the diet was downright mental death by a thousand cuts. No Words. Gimme sardines.

You left out the key info to get my head around Why continuum? "Continuum is a self-hosted dashboard that ingests, categorizes, and visualizes your content from platforms like Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, and Nostr — helping you reclaim ownership over your online life." If it is a way to bring all that info under one roof on Nostr, that's very interesting, as I am writing to painters about the importance of retaining ownership of their content!

This is poetry Simply Bitcoin and @gladstein charting the rise and spread of btc, the people's money. It is such a simple and powerful idea gradually being understood by minds in so many different sectors of society. From Marxists to capitalists, individuals to nations, businesses to businesses' customers...sound money enables so much, releases so much.
