Oh the insanity of people signaling that they don't want their nodes on a cypherpunk monetary network to be used to store infinite amounts of garbage... I'm pretty okay being viewed as crazy by people who are so heavily propagandized that they can't tell the difference between men & women. Stay vegan or vaccinated or whatever. View quoted note →

Knowing who is in the fight for freedom & who is an enemy of freedom is pretty simple. The people who want to make it easier for everyone to mine & to run nodes that audit & record & verify everything in a completely trustless manner are for freedom. The people who want to make it more costly to do those things are enemies of freedom. It doesn't matter if Satoshi Adam Gregory Szabo Nakamoto Christ says that we should facilitate spamming the network & storing BS on the chain, he's wrong. Node runners should be free to decide what they relay & what they reject. #Bitcoin #Freedom #FixtheMoney

Anyone have any suggestions for the best way to get a globally usable internet phone number or something close (North & South America being the primary focus)? I am temporarily using Silent Link for data & intend to switch to a more local service provider, but I would like to set up a SIP number that I can use with pretty much any data plan or service. Anyone have any experience doing something similar? Are there services that are more or less secure than others or is it all just equally insecure as a general form of communication? Are texts & calls generally reliable so long as the data connection is good or is it hit & miss? #asknostr

If the leadership in Iran is intelligent (not a ton of hope of that) for every missile the US launches at them, they will launch 10 at Israel & only Israel. They do not have the capacity to fight the US, but a focused attack on the psychopathic organization that is manipulating the US has a small chance of actually setting the US free & ending the conflict for good.

The Peter Kropotkin quote, "competition is the law of the jungle, and cooperation is the law of civilization" strikes me as one of the dumbest things I have ever read. I really hope someone can explain how there is some missing context or something. If you are not free to choose a potentially competitive endeavor then you are not free to cooperate, everyone is simply coerced & enslaved & there is no cooperation at all. This seems painfully obvious to the point of being completely self evident. #philosophy #communism #anarchism #capitalism #freedom
