This will be my first proper bullrun but from cursory involvement in previous bullruns, the main sentiment was that you trench alt & shitcoins for a fiscal orbital boost on your way to BTC ownership for those with an uncontrolled risk tolerance like myself. It's been the polar opposite for a while now and many are going to come to regret banking their futures on $NIGGABUTT and $CHILLGOY.
If there's one thing that's underappreciated about Satoshi, I'd say it's his OPSEC. Unless the 3 letter agencies already have him, I'm quite impressed & also fascinated at the same time.
Even if you're not in the SAIF group chat (99% aren't and likely never will be), the discussions had have already propagated through the upward digital spiral and into your psyche by way of morphogenetic field manipulation. All you have to do is let us in ꩜

Self host everything series pt 1: Intro: This is the first edition of a journal/blog documenting my efforts to self host as many things as I have the interest and time for. My background: I'm a physicist. Due to extreme curiosity, I've become gripped with the latest strain of computer related autism. Why? 1) Why not? 2) Data sovereignty is the only defense you plebs have in an age of infowar, internet death and jeetification. 3) Let me share something with you from /hsg/: "Home servers are about learning and expanding your horizons. De-botnet your life. Learn something new. Serving applications to yourself, your family, and your frens feels good. Put your /g/ skills to good use for yourself and those close to you. Store their data with proper availability redundancy and backups and serve it back to them with a /comfy/ easy to use interface. Most people get started with a NAS. It’s nice to have a /comfy/ home for all your data. Streaming your movies/shows around the house and to friends. Know all about NAS? Learn virtualization. Spin up some VMs. Learn networking by setting up a pfSense box and configuring some VLANs. There's always more to learn and chances to grow. Things that are online today might not be online forever. It's good to have a copy of something because you never know when it might get taken down due to copyright strikes. " What? I'll be starting with a network attached storage (NAS). As described by /hsg/, it is a /comfy/ home for my data. My usecase is fairly simple, so I don't need anything too high tech. Lowlife works for now, especially for a first project. So I did the cliche thing and purchased a Raspberry Pi. The 5 w/8GB ram to be specific. "How are you going to build a NAS on a pi?" I hear you screech. Hats. Expansion boards that are attached to the Pi via FPC cables. I purchased the Radxa Penta SATA hat and a Samsung SSD. Total cost? $167. Not bad. Guide: 1) Write Pi OS to a microSD card. Install Raspberry Pi imager, choose your device, OS, storage medium, set a username & password and other settings and write the image to your microSD card. 2) Assemble the parts. (Just read the Radxa docs) 3) Set up RAID, LVM, both or something else entirely. 4) Create a directory that will be shared on the network and then mount your LVM LV or RAID array to it. Edit the /etc/fstab file for persistent mounting. Ensure proper permissions are set for the directory (consult Samba docs) 5) Install Samba, edit the /etc/samba/samba.conf to setup the Samba share, then restart samba so that the newly configured shared directory is available 6) Create a user for Samba access: sudo smbpasswd -a <username> 7) Connect to the share from another computer using the CLI provided by the smbclient package or by using a GUI file explorer. SMB capable file explorers can be found on F-droid for android. 8) (Optionally) Mount the share on your PC/Laptop via cifs by installing the cifs-utils package. Pros: - Just Werks - Easy - Cheap - Looks cool (pic rel) Cons: - Expansion limitation + a hard cap limitation due to the small number of Pcie lanes so network + disk speed limitations. Also, ARM architecture and running Plebian PS: I wrote this up on my file server and accessed it on my android phone to grab the text to post on Nostr. /comfy/ image
Farming Nostr reactions vlog part 2 (yesterday went well)
The magic behind computing is that the more layers you peel back the more exponentially fascinating things get. Another thing is the fact that kino is usually hidden behind the mundane. Take bash redirections for example. what is seemingly to you "taking the output of one command and using it as the input of another" is manipulation of streams of data. About as cyberpunk as one can get. Computing is magical if you let your imagination roam freely (shame it's not that challenging of a subject however)
Unironically, time based capitulation is going to rayp, and already has to some extent, altcoiners and we'll hear of many rope stories. Stack sats is the best strategy for all IQ bands. Not everyone is made to be a retarded gambler
AI agents are going to be indistinguishable from real humans and the normie mind will be raypd for it. Find and/or create a high trust, high IQ gated community or prepare for digital penetration ad infinitum. "You use the clearnet? What are you? Poor & retarded?" - circa 2030
