Fuck, I fell for an AI... :-)

After posting the meme about the Rings, I was struck by the greatness of Tolkien which goes far beyond his writing, linguistic and storytelling abilities (which are, of course, unparalled to date). In fact, just the "basics" of the rings give an incredible insight on the times we are living, times that Tolkien could not foresee but was able to "predict" based on the absolute logic of his personal believes. There is the One Ring, pure evil, made to dominate all life (the nightmare of the world government). There are the Nine and the Seven, doomed by the desire for power and by greed (currently well represented by the various govs around the world and their associations). Then there are the Three. They give the power to inspire others to resist tyranny, domination, and despair, the power of preservation, protection, and possibly concealment from evil and the power to heal, respectively. When the One is finally destroyed, the Three lose all power as they are not needed anymore, and least their bearers are tempted to misuse them. It strikes me that what is going on now so much resembles Tolkien's idea: the evil currently suffucating the world and what is needed to purge it or at least to counter it effectively. I think Internet, Bitcoin and Nostr-like ideas are part of the Three. Some parts are still missing but we are working on it! P.S. I purposefully kept this short for the sake of clarity. One could probably write a book on the matter... :-)

And what was it that corrupted the nine and the seven? Hunger for power and greed! But wait! That's exactly what a gov is based on! #fuckthegov #tolkien #lotr

My take on data privacy. Many in the space suggest adopting self-hosted solutions like Umbrel and the like. While I fully understand that owning your own data is a desirable thing, I cannot fail to notice that such solutions leave you vulnerable to the worst actor out there, which is the state. This is because it has the power and the will to confiscate your equipment, and we all know that it is just a matter of time after that, before you are doomed. Running such services on a remote host is not much different. I wonder than if finding "trusted" open source third parties with which you can communicate via local encryption (meaning that they cannot see anything) is not a better solution, although of course not optimal. Any thoughts? #privacy #data #crypto

Just finished BTCaudible episode from @Guy Swann with @PABLOF7z! It was quite a lot of time I didn't have so much fun with such an interesting content! Great job there!

Only in Italy: a sign on a highway recommending to call the coast guard in case of a sea emergency... 100 kms from the sea... #italy #fuckthestate #meme #memestr

Stay humble and stack sats! And if they are free, so much the better! This is a nice cashback system that pays you sats back instead of fiat. #btc #bitcoin #satsback #cashback #stackstas https://satsback.com/register/2Mkb1aoVY6PDGXZz
