As much as I appreciate the RHS facilities, and especially Wisley, I'm totally against this demand of a government bail out. Sorry, but this is not what tax payer money is for. Raise entrance prices or cut expenses.

So Trump was just using zero-based numbering I guess?

Trump Derangement Syndrom seems to need an extra descriptor. It's not just about hating him despite flashes of actual competency. Many are deranged too because they think he's some kind of saviour.

Welcome to the crony states of America - Daily Friend

Yesterday marked the beginning of Trump’s new and improved USA, where the facts don’t matter and anyone can bribe the president. It was symboli...

Gotta say I prefer the relatively benign, albeit unsophisticated, type of grift that the Trumps run. Way better than the corruption that involves trillions of $ state spending and risking WW3 just to shave a few slices off for themselves. Not that I approve of either, but I've grown to be grateful for lesser evils.

Funny how the same people who criticize government incompetence and bloat (agree!) are then often the first to be complaining about them not having enough manpower for something, or that they should do more about some issue. Can't have it both ways I'm afraid.

The Daily Show host being paid by Microsoft for the last 8 years for some bullshit job title is such fiat corporate media corruption. You'd be called a conspiracy theorist for claiming it, but here he goes admitting it - then goes on to defend how great Bill Gates is. No integrity. https://fountain.fm/clip/Fes6rLYHbm67xDR6f6ED

Prophet Song - Wikipedia

Nigel Farage could actually be the UK prime minister in 2029. I suspect his strategy is something like: 1. Form a party and get a foothold in parliament to build from (✅) 2. Deny any possibility of ever partnering with the Conservative Party in order to ensure voters really do intend to vote more for you 3. However, given first past the post, you've now maximally split the centre-right vote and Labour stands to benefit 4. In the 11th hour propose to negotiate on your terms (e.g. that Tory MPs will elect you as PM), and strategically stand down candidates such that the centre-right vote isn't split at constituency level (okay if it is in parliament) We're now in step 2 - and it's fascinating how many people take Farage at his word that there won't ever be an alliance with the Conservative Party.

Keen to try out Primal, but it's a non-starter without Amber support. I see there are already two open GitHub issues about it, so hopefully soon? @miljan

Not every component needs to be evil for the whole or the outcome to be.

Muun is still my number 1 recommendation to friends who want to get their coins off an exchange, but they're not advanced enough (or don't have the time) to properly set up and air gap a coldcard. It's user friendly, and has great recovery options. Also allows for layer agnostic payments (can be expensive so that's a tradeoff).

Bitkey seems like a great option to recommend to friends who want to get their btc off an exchange, but my reservation is that they require your credit card details (no Bitcoin payment). Seems like an unnecessary shortcoming.

This is an amazing story about the dynamics of woke, how it destroys productivity, is intolerant, and ultimately eats itself.
