Gotta say something to convince their users that shelling out more money to change out all their cords, is worth it.
Just stupid they didn't do it years ago.
The iPads are already USB-C because lightning cable couldn't deliver power fast enough.

I genuinely don't understand people talking about this when "web-apps" exist. Like, even Apple let's you set a website as an app without having to go through the app store.
Pretty easy workaround IMO

I see this all the time but can I also ask, does this account for coin dilution? I remember hearing the argument that it hit that price with more #Bitcoin issued than the previous all time high. I've just never run the numbers to see the difference.

2024-09-05 14:25:53

I keep thinking about a podcast I was listening to... The host was saying how we can see in real time people/media rewriting history. The example most given is the Trump "fine people" hoax. Whether you like or don't like Trump doesn't matter... You can easily look up the 30 second clip and see the media:
A) lie about it.
B) show it to your average person and they deny what they just saw.
The conclusion was, how the hell can you trust anything in the history books?
If they can rewrite something with video evidence that clearly disproves it, but people eat it up anyway, how can you trust the narratives that have been spun for centuries?
How can you convince one of these people about #Bitcoin?
They just eat whatever those in power tell them to eat.

One of the reasons I think I was able to get #bitcoin so readily is because I've had to live life on my own. I've always had a rocky relationship with my dad, to the point we no longer speak. My mom has never been financially stable. So I moved halfway across the country and survived on my own. I remember having $20 for food to get me through two weeks until next paycheck. I told myself I'd never let it get that bad ever again. Enter #btc where I can now store my value and always have my own fall back.

2024-09-05 02:05:31

I'm reading like 3 books concurrently. One of them I just finished is a classic sci-fi book, "Hyperion."
I still really like the world building through 7 strangers' stories. But the craziest thing I found, this world CANNOT exist without hard money.
Most sci-fi authors ignore economics but he's describing people "hopping" through time by traveling at light speed. One guy is coming back to the same place every 11ish years.
How would any company be able to pay a worker for that if there was someone in control of the money printer? It would be like forcing someone to buy a 10-year Treasury bond. It wouldn't work.
@npub1yx5…uumh once you finish your current book...I think sci-fi needs a new voice as well.

I was at the local farmer's market telling a guy he should accept #bitcoin and he asked me how it was going.

Agreed. Trying to boil it down to simplistic terms is difficult.

Honestly I'm using that more as a blanket term. Wherever I have extra money it's just put into #Bitcoin.
I only have 1 true monthly buy that's a set amount. Everything else is just smash buys with whatever funds I have.

But that's the thing... Why keep fighting a losing battle, when there's someone else you can easily win over that just hasn't heard the arguments before? At this point in the adoption cycle it seems better to focus on people that are open to the message, than to focus on those that aren't.

2024-09-04 13:32:37

I think I'm at @npub1rtl…jtfs stage of orange pilling.
While I still talk about #Bitcoin because it's my obsession, if a normie is giving me strong pushback and no curiosity...I just say "ok" and move on with my life.
Why work so hard to give out one life vest when there's a ton more people out there gratefully accepting life vests.

2024-09-04 13:25:57

First off, I completely agree with you.
This is why I just DCA all excess funds into #Bitcoin.
Then I don't really have to worry. Just keep stacking and forget about the noise. And people wonder why I have way less stress than them.

The wife and I are making our way through old school "Law & Order" and it's still a TV show, so it has its left leaning narratives at times... But they were definitely tackling bigger issues head on; racism, abortion, death penalty, etc. But the thing I like the most was at least there was still a sense of the law being fair. You're naive if you think the law and America works like this anymore.

Generally I think those on #nostr don't need this announcement but just in case, this is a particularly clever phishing attempt. Remember to be vigilant in your own security and check the "From" address of any email you receive. Don't just take it at face value. I work in IT and there's nothing swan can do about this. Everyone's first line of defense is your own common sense.

If I can ask... What's everyone's preferred lightning wallet?
I really liked Phoenix but they're out of the US now.
I tried Zeus, but managing channels + no way to send on-chain and convert really annoyed me.
I like Aqua, but fees on small lightning payments are outrageous.
I'm digging primal for the micro payments but don't want it to be my main lightning wallet.
Looking at Breez currently but wondering if anyone has any feedback with it.

The amount of people stuck in the rat race is insane. Everywhere I turn there's zero hope and no one wants to hear the solution.
Went golfing with a good buddy of mine, and we talked about how the rest of our "friends" just want to bitch and complain about life.
We don't get together often but when we do, we celebrate our wins, talk about what we're moving forward and accomplishing, then go home to our families to win some more.
Makes us both re-evaluate friendships. The downers will pull you down if you let them.

2023-04-13 01:17:08

Thought I'd share my #Bitcoin journey:
I found Bitcoin through Stefan Molyneux. He's a philosopher that was banned from YouTube during the Trump era. But he's a free market Austrian economics capitalist. Back then he debated Peter Schiff about gold vs Bitcoin.
I bought in back in 2015. Transferred my coins to a core wallet. Encrypted that wallet without ever writing down my seed phrase... AND forgot the password. My wife likes to say, "your younger self outsmarted your future self."
What's worse is I was holding some coins for my best friend on that wallet.
I worked my ass off and made my friend whole as that's my fault. I bought more in the 2017 bull run but I wasn't very successful back then and to be honest I was so disheartened from my previous experience that I ignored it until 2020.
Back in the 2021 bull run I dabbled in alts. I had bought 1 ETH for $400, but I couldn't bring myself to buy any more.
2022 I went back through the content of Bitcoiners to remember why #Bitcoin had appealed to me so much in the first place. I converted EVERYTHING back to BTC. Got myself a better hardware wallet. Made sure I have my seed phrase in a better place.
Now I've orange pilled a bunch of my friends. The only one in my family I've been able to convince is my mother.
While I ignored #Bitcoin because of my own foolishness... I'm glad I found my way back.
Thank you for reading!

It's so interesting to me... I've never drank. Couldn't find anything I liked and I've gone so long NOT drinking alcohol I won't start now. But it's so funny to me how media/tv/movies always talk about peer pressure into alcohol or drugs. I've literally never met any alcohol drinker that didn't respect my preference to not drink. Probably because I never lectured them. You respect my choices, I respect yours.
