I recently had a conversation with a person who held the belief that wealthy individuals should be compelled to contribute to the welfare of the poor. He shared a story about a taxi company where he had worked, owned by an incredibly wealthy man who treated his employees poorly and paid them very little. Curious, I asked him why he freely chose to work for such a person. He replied that he had no choice, he needed to feed his family. I pointed out that this WAS a choice. Feed his family or not feed his family, and that he chose the former. Also, and more importantly, this "horrible" rich individual was the one who helped him provide for his family. I could see the moment of cognitive dissonance wash over him as he quickly shifted the conversation to another topic.

@dataMachine 🤖 any plans to add a dark mode option to help stop my eyes bleeding? 😉

TIL I need new glasses. Fucking spelling mistakes.

'Disposable incomre' is such a fiat term. To thknk thst Bitcoiners would actually dispose of their surplus #Bitcoin is laughable.

@ZEUS I just tried to consolidate 2 UTXO's with my Zeus wallet. - I set the UXTO's - Toggled 'send all funds' - the total amount appeared - Selected the fee and sent the coins Transaction has now confirmed but the problem is only one UTXO was sent. So I just sent myself a UTXO. The same thing happened ages ago. I was hoping it was a known issue and that today's update would have fixed it. Any ideas?

I think @Guy Swann should give up on Bitcoin content and become a comedian.... oh wait, he can do both. At the same time.

I've recently been meditating for 20 mins every day where 15 is spent thinking about Bitcoin and the other 5 trying not to think about #Bitcoin

@Knut Svanholm ∞/21M FYI I tried to send you some sats via your Nostr profile with my Primal wallet but the payment failed. I wanted to send some because I just listened to your Max Hillebrand and Guy Swann podcasts which were awesome.

GM 'Strategic Bitcoin Reserve' is a euphemism for 'Stealing from people to buy Bitcoin'' #Bitcoin

GM Understanding #Bitcoin is not so much about how intelligent someone is but instead a matter of how emotionally attached they are to their worldview.

I'd love to know how @ODELL joined Nostr in 2014

Anarchy. Embrace the anarchism in everyone you meet. The voluntary interactions. The freedom all around you. Nurture the relationships that don’t rely on coercion to survive.

@Max Hey Max, is there any way to download your audio book A Lodging of Wayfaring Men to my Andriod phone? I would like to listen to it offline while out walking. https://freemansperspective.com/audiobook-a-lodging-of-wayfaring-men/

@miljan I cannot upgrade to Primal Premium on my Pixel running CalyxOS because it's de-Googled. Aurora Store is where the apps are downloaded on Calyx. Any ideas? #asknostr
