Would Starlink and self-driving Tesla have happened anyway? After listening to Ryan Hogue and his specific Bitcoin and Strategy stock chart analysis, it sounds like we are just stuck on an exponential growth chart. Like, it doesn't actually matter who is CEO of Tesla or Strategy, or who is president and how many subsidies are given out. So if the world doesn't end, we are all just stuck on an exponential chart of progress. if AI doesn't come this year, it will come next year. If we didn't solve self-driving cars in the last 20, it will be solved by AI in the next 2 years. View quoted note →

posting some thoughts into the void today after listening to Jack Kruse on Knut Svanholm's bitcoin infinity podcast. Jack seems to have excellent people sussing skills. so i agree with about 99% of the direction he goes. I'm only interested in his opinions of Saylor, which is where he confuses me. He appears to have more of a personal bone to pick with him than actual logical facts. For example, he criticizes Michael's statement"I'm going to burn my coins" and calls that extinction. This is intellectually dishonest. Not sure if Jack is in good faith misunderstanding this or trying to support his argument by ignoring logic. I'm thankful that Jack Kruse doesn't design airplanes. if Jack is purposely fibbing to support his argument-->i got problems with Jack AND the fabians. If he mistakenly thought burning coins is bad for bitcoin, then i hope he shows good faith to correct this criticism or at least not repeat it.

why do the Ocean mining blocks always have fewer transactions than the others? is this BIP110 related?

i attempted to orange pill a principled person that SpaceX is going into their index portfolio which is an indirect investment in prn thru X. a single digit percent of their money is going into that company. of course, then i realize i'm the problem because i use X for news. they don't even use it. now i'm debating whether i can give up X. i literally just use it to see what Ryan Hogue, Josh Mandell, Mike ALred, Nithu Senzi are saying. i don't even like following celebrities, and here i am doing it anyway. i think i'll have to give it up. i doubt that knowing what they say is important anyway. so long X

i'm trying to fit a 9004 Sylvania bulb into a 1994 F250 to pass an inspection tomorrow. it just wont go. the old one slides in easy-peasy the plastic casing of the new one is just seems too big. i'm mentioning it on here because sometimes Nostr magically resolves problems. or maybe the simulations get run again and the 2026 Sylvania bulbs fit the 1994 casing maybe someone would advise just hammering it in. i'm ready to. these things cost 46$ and i don't want to try another brand.
