Politics divides. Trade brings people together. Destroy political power & set trade free.

Someone needs to tell her the dryer isn't shrinking her clothes.
The Luigi crap is at the top of every heavily censored social media feed because the ruling class wants people to turn violent toward business owners. The business owners are generally not the political parasites that rule over you, they are the ones who could potentially be a threat to the political parasites. The parasites want top down & bottom up pressure on economically productive people to make them demand more govt protection & to make them more willing to comply with govt demands.

Reality is objective, there is one true reality. But there are essentially an infinite number of perspectives. Reality is far too complicated for anyone to have the whole truth. People have mental models. All models are wrong, but some are useful.
Money printer goes brrrrrrrr #bitcoin
Many govt employees believe that if someone shows a lack of respect for their authority, then they in turn don't have to respect that person as a human being. Social status is not a human right. Life, liberty, & property are human rights. Words aren't violence.

No, miners compete in a number guessing lottery that allows them to officially put the transactions in order, making a block. But the nodes validate all transactions they recieve before they even relay them to miners. Nodes validate everything. Even in BCH people running nodes had to run the BCH code first & then wait for miners to make BCH blocks. It was the nodes that changed the rules. The network is the economically active nodes which pay the miners to mine. The idea that miners are the network is basically like trying to apply the labor theory of value to blockchains.

Publix has a store brand spicy breakfast sausage with decent ingredients. It is surprisingly difficult to find decent sausage.
Still have to validate from issuance or you are trusting someone to do it for you. Triple entry accounting isn't actually triple entry unless you validate from issuance.
No, Steve explicitly says that it doesn't matter how many people run nodes & that as long as one person has the history the chain can recover. He doesn't seem to get that if only one person runs a fully archival node, then everyone has to trust that node's version of history.
Seriously, wtf is wrong with Steve Patterson & Roger Ver? It is not that hard to understand that if there are only a few super nodes with all of the info that corrupting those nodes corrupts the whole system. Those who control the history, control the rules. We must all have records in order to keep from being cheated. #Bitcoin
Just adding in Lightning channels from Liquid balances would mostly solve the problem without much having to be changed from where we are currently. Channel factories would help & fedimits should also help

I just want to put it out there, given some of the odd things being discussed lately. If there is "alien contact" of some sort that scares everyone, it is FAKE. Our govt has had plans on the books (along with fake pandemics) to do this for decades. They probably haven't had the technology to make such a thing visually believable until recently. There are truly psychopathic people in power.

Project bluebeam (fake alien threats or attack) is probably going to be the next effort to justify total tyranny & scare everyone into compliance.
Yeah, I think so... if you go into the Brave app you should be able to open the settings & put mojeek as the default search for Brave. Then any non-address you type into the address bar will automatically be searched on mojeek.
Do you not use a mobile browser like brave that you can set your preferred search in the browser settings?
Serious question, why would you want a separate app for a search engine? You can set it as the default in your browser.

Omg! Mojeek.com is a search engine that actually works. If you want covid compilation videos, it actually gives you links to covid compilation videos.
Swan Bitcoin should really make everyone whole even if they have to take out a loan against company assets in order to do so. The idea that Fortress is going to take fees of up to $175 from people under the guise that this is the cost of making a bitcoin transaction is insane. Swan made the mistake of dealing with a shitty company instead of just building their own custodial solution (or just going the Bull Bitcoin route) & they should bear the cost of that mistake & shield their customers from loss.
Some of us started at "Fiat is slavery. End the Fed." And #Bitcoin gave us hope. nostr:nevent1qqsttwun94x9sys3sycgrya9axmclhwydvv082uledsl2ukutxpn9hqpzdmhxue69uhhwmm59e6hg7r09ehkuef0qgsz9qzkcdqqldc8a3nn4fw85zkhxz2llevjc4shvh56ea4upr9j27qrqsqqqqqp2fdfgj
