Better uses cases - not better social media clients.

NOSTR is not a social media It's just a first use case, because they are trivial to deploy. NOSTR is a comprehensive digital identity, for your real world life. 2024+ projects will address this.

🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡 If NVK spent as much time on design as FUDing the passport lads - he wouldn't be losing so much ground to them on the product side. Also still doesnt seem to understand what open sourcing means. Yet another decent Bitcoin project with neurotic leadership. (Common theme). image

Given the power of technology available to sovereign individuals today, and what we can reasonably expect from now on... Are Bitcoiners above the law? and If you conclude that we mostly are, what responsibility do Bitcoiners have to each other, if the legal system we've functionally emancipated from is hostile enough to ignore, and what should it be replaced with for our own purposes? I rather like Common Law, and only seek it applied properly. What is to be done?

This cybertruck is peak larp. It can't tow, it cant run on diesel, the storage is shit, it can't offroad and it can be turned off. If it breaks, no-one can fix it locally. But its bulletproof (why), its gonna be a boat (why), and its hard to scratch (so what), and its 65k. Give me a 2005 hilux and 40 grand pls. I'll manage.

We all know what happens next. The pool that had the good idea in principle will adapt to the feedback, or will go down with the inseparable autism of the founder, and another pool lights up to capture the anti-ordinal approach but opens the door to mixers, and cleans up. Users always win in a free and open market.

Not your mining pool - not your medium of exchange!! On-chain is a whale-only space. image

Who's gonna tell them that internal tension, failing international efforts, and high youth unemployment is a reason to go to war, not the reason they won't... Storm clouds are growing over the dragon's lair. US is idstracted with Ukraine and Middle East. They can't afford a third war with a superpower in a different hemisphere. Perfect time to take Taiwan militarily is soon. Problem is, China's military is shit. But thats why that have large youth reserves and high factory outputs.

Owing to persistently high on-chain fees, I'm in need of some advice. I simply can't seem to jam an opendime up the arse of this homing pigeon, and he's starting to get upset. Any advice welcomed. GN! image

AI will dominate the cyber world. Anytime a carbon based lifeform travels there, they'll need a cloak of encryption and proof of work to survive. Humans will own the physical world, AI will rule the digital. Each will affect the other, but when in their non-native realm they will be limited.
