TIL about Biosphere 2, an experiment in Arizona that took place from 1991 to 1993. A crew of eight people attempted to live inside a closed ecosystem. The cost of the project is equivalent to roughly $440 million in today's dollars, and it was privately funded. It's surprising they didn't try to turn it into a reality show. The crew's diet did not include red meat in any substantial or regular way. Additionally, they struggled to produce enough oxygen. Ultimately, the crew experienced hunger and infighting. #carnivore

Even the analog world doesn't like dealing with precious metals. Buying it is easy, but transporting it or getting rid of it is a logistical nightmare. View quoted note →

GM. I made a list of actions, tools, and behaviors that I learned and adopted over the past seven years that were significant to my growth, or radicalization 😄. I probably missed a few things, and certain things were already part of my routine but got enhanced since COVID. The path to sovereignty never ends, so I’m open to more tips and suggestions. #asknostr Not in any particular order: - Bitcoin-only - #vpn - #foss - #2fas - #guns - #ammo - 3D printer - #start9 - #sparrow - #coldcard - Deleted X - #nostronly - #onlyzaps mode - #coffeechain - #nunchuk - #tapsigner - Faraday bags - #linux laptop - Daily walks - #tor browser - LNVP eSIM - Proton mail - #electrolytes - #toto Washlet - #multisig vault - Stay humble - Sewing machine - Running #nostr - Running #bitcoin - Running #lightning - Security cameras - Tallow deodorant - Deleted #instagram - Deleted #facebook - Minimalistic lifestyle - Solo mining with #bitaxe - Pineal gland awareness - Survival / camping gear - #carnivore real-food diet - Marino wool and natural fibers - 4x4 Truck camper with #starlink - Blue-light awareness and reduction - Wim Hoff breathing / cold showers - #castiron #stainless #carbonsteel - CO2 air quality meter / thermometer - No #seedoils or modern ingredients To-dos and future goals: - Get a Bitcoin job - Delete LinkedIn - Buy off-grid property - Amateur radio and meshtastic - Delete Google account - Replace #iphone with #grapheneos

I never felt so bullish on Bitcoin watching a podcast interview that has nothing to do with Bitcoin. GN 💤

I just learned about this phone today. I like the physical switch to disconnect the battery. I also like the distress pin feature (does GrapheneOS have this feature?). Does anyone here know anything about this phone? I don't see "open-source" mentioned anywhere, so I'm a little skeptical. #asknostr
