Fascinating episode. I'm listening on fountain when possible. But sometimes it's good to see the speakers as well, so I have to still use Spotify sometimes. I don't find Nostr very easy or useful but I just keep going because I know I will get better, and it will get better. Oscar explains stuff really well.

Best VPN for pleb non-specialist user?

I approached this episode with trepidation, given the title. Interesting. But my fears were well founded! I just don't understand why so many bitcoiners are determined to misunderstand and misrepresent the power law. It's an amazing model; the only one that actually works through 15 years. No one says you have to use it for trading. Personally, I have never sold bitcoin. https://fountain.fm/episode/Qobv9wxBknhyMm5DNEPo View quoted note →

I can't stand that hypocritical evil Keir Starmer. Haha! Just testing. Hello officer.

Didn't realise you read these out. Just heard you make my day, my week, my month, my life! Fame at last! Nathan Day calls me the Destroyer of Tech, because I make all easy software go wrong. Then eventually right. https://fountain.fm/episode/6zoL50ZotZNHgcYzPYiS View quoted note →

As a Boomer of great experience I believe you can all learn from my life. You can work hard, yet fail. But then pick yourself up, stand tall, and fail again. ☹️

I've fallen a bit behind on news. Did Craig Wright win? Should we worship him now?

The only time I sold 'crypto' was when I realised that my initial purchase of 50% each BTC and ETH was a mistake, so I converted all ETH to BTC. Never looked back. And now I understand the ethical basis even better, I would never touch sheepcoins again.

I've had to write off the past two months due to a horrible attack of shingles. Hope to get a Second Best Meetup organised again soon!

I'm still amazed that some people haven't taken their bitcoin into self custody. I'm a so-called effing boomer, yet I found self custody easy. Room for improvement of course.

Sorry, don't know how to tag people on Nostr.
