That's how I feel when I visit some of the big European cities. And yes, as a matter of principle, I never buy anything in places like that.

People often don't understand my political toxicity. I don't mind that there is a market for services that help people obtain (buy) any residency. I also don't mind that you buy these services. And I will never stop making toxic jokes about this topic and mocking all of you. 😌 View quoted note →

😆 It always amuses me when: 1) they start selling residency in yet another paradise for those who love to report to the state; 2) “This is paradise and you need to come here immediately!1!11!!” 3) “Here, a happy life costs 5 cents.!1!11!!” 4) Gringos are lured in, pay money, move there, and put up with the downsides of the “paradise”. 5) The state comes in to fleece the newly arrived gringos; 6) The search for a new paradise begins... So, where's the new paradise, gringo-goy? https://xcancel.com/stalliondelsur/status/2031829020975743420

I finally got around to testing the latest update from @Cake Wallet Yes, with the addition of Spark, the Lightning Network is now more convenient to use. But still, I'm not a fan of Bitcoin and LN, so I always onboard the merchants I need into Monero.

A new GrapheneOS user recently complained that after installation, “the system is inconvenient and empty.” This is a huge advantage, not a disadvantage. I am grateful that for the past ~12-13 years I have been Linux-only (with KDE Plasma) and “FOSS first,” and that this has shaped my worldview on how software should be and how it should not be. I have configured GrapheneOS myself, and configured it in such a way that no one else would ever configure it for me, and that if the system came with a bunch of pre-installed software, it would take me longer to remove everything. Starting with the keyboard and ending with the settings for Brave, the launcher, and even how the main menu behaves when I double-tap the screen and when I simply swipe to open the main menu. Yes, down to the smallest details. 😌 Support GrapheneOS:

In Kyiv, manhunters captured a man. A police officer, in turn, sprays gas at people who are trying to help him. #war #ukraine #zelenskyy

She's the best. 🇪🇺 I just don't understand the goyim in the comments with their “community notes” and toxicity. Everything that explodes and then gets rebuilt is a great way to take your money, goy. Keep calm and don't forget to return your bottles.

Nostr's "Recent with replies" is the best "algorithm".

How pleasant it is to observe this event year after year... and how pleasant is to see that Monero is working, which is why governments are fighting it, and that every year fewer and fewer big centralized exchanges have impact on XMR... Remember, it is you who empower large centralized exchanges with the influence they have (or, more accurately: had in the past), which are controlled by the state. I would also include the recently launched XMR1 from Wagyu in MoneroRun event. So, if you hold XMR1 on the Hyperliquid network, you should also withdraw real XMR to your non-custodial wallet. https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/1rpst8j/monerorun_2026_public_audit_of_xmr_reserves_on/

I want to spend less time online. My next purchase: a fountain pen + paper notebook.

I wonder how much the % of people who believe in the law, legality, and the state has decreased over the last 5-6 years?

Done. Now you can support the development of ‘MeshCore Open’ with Monero.

Add a Monero (XMR) wallet address to .README, ping me, and I'll be the first to send you XMR. I just love supporting important and cool FOSS: emavg...

This is what dictatorship looks like in Ukraine. In Odessa, army representatives kidnapped a man along with his wife. #war #ukraine #zelenskyy
