Yawn, it's the same thing (I think there's a meme for this). This is just semantics. You are born with all rights, 100%. You/I/we agree to give up certain freedoms (such as freedom to steal) to the government to institute laws (social contract 101). By giving up these freedoms, we relinquish our "right" to do them. Rights are relinquished by giving away freedoms. If we retain these freedoms, we retain our right to do whatever it is. Semantics.

I've got an old laptop with a Windows 10/Linux Mint dual boot. I've moved over to linux almost exclusively, but lately it's gotten so slow it's almost unusable.
Weekend goal: shrink Windows partition, wipe the others and reinstall linux. If that doesn't work, nuke the entire thing and start over. Done it before, but always takes 10x the time. Wish me luck.

A Nostr WoT tool. Put in your npub and it spits out a score for you and your follows and/or followers. Maybe data points: number of followers they have, number of zaps received in last X amount of time, must be others. I get a kick out of watching wot scores on coracle vary wildly. Though seems more stable lately.

(By the way, how do you embed an mp3 on nostr? #asknostr #grownostr)
https://peakd.com/crypto/@crrdlx/the-hodl-song
Lyrics:
This here game ain't for the weak
I hodl and I hodel all the long day long.
Try to buy the low, try to sell the peak
I hodl and I hodel all the long day long.
When things go south you must be bold
I hodl and I hodel all the long day long.
Keep your coin and beer in the cooler cold
I hodl and I hodel all the long day long.
hodl the throttle
and hodel the yodel
hodl hodl hodl hodel-lay-tee-oh
When fomo hits, you must hold fast
I hodl and I hodel all the long day long.
or you will certainly will lose your assets
I hodl and I hodel all the long day long.
out of sight place your bags of coin
I hodl and I hodel all the long day long.
a hodl and a hodel, and the whales you'll join
I hodl and I hodel all the long day long.
Hodl the throttle
and hodel the yodel
hodl hodl hodl hodel-lay-tee-oh.
Hey!

#Bitcoin
People micro-parse things going on now with bitcoin (and crypto) with the government. The cheeky and kinda lazy take is to poo-poo things because it's not bitcoin only. I get that. But, just ask, are we in a better place now than a year or two or three ago? Is what's going on now good for bitcoin or bad? I know the answers and you do too. Be thankful for incremental steps.

- and dictators
- we good governments should ban bitcoin

Yesterday I saw something I've never seen before. It prompted me to stop my biking to work and take thus photo. I saw a string of maybe 25 bright stars in a perfect line all moving together across the sky. It was the Starlink constellation of satellites. By the time I stopped and got my phone to camera, they all had faded away. But I promise they were there. I was looking to the east about 30 minutes before sunrise. I guess the sun was hitting them just right to light them up. Pretty cool and I'll be looking for them going forward.

I made a #math game of chance called Wusang: Isle of Blaq. People have a 1 in 10,000 chance to find a #bitcoin #ecash "treasure chest" of sats. With about 38 attempts per day, I wondered when a winner might find it. My estimate was by July 2025. I asked ChatGPT, Google Gemini, and Microsoft Copilot. They did big math and came back with authoritative sounding answers, but were not in agreement. I thought there would be a "correct" answer. They said:
ChatGPT: winner by Oct. 26, 2025
Gemini: winner by July 11, 2025
Copilot: winner by May 12, 2025
What gives? I thought math would be easy for #AI. This AI thang might not be as smart as folks think.

No doubt there's a whole lot of promises going on today. Some wild ones too.

#bitcoin #crypto To me, the Trump coin silliness in a word: disappointing. I'm sure many of Trump's people have zero knowledge of this type of thing yet are jumping in. Many will lose money. Still, this article brings up a fair point when compared to traditional finance.

Nice swing. Think I woulda driven that slightly over the plate pitch more up the middle, but you turned on it so that's good too.

Since https://njump.me seems the best way currently to share Nostr links outside of Nostr, I was about to ask for a "Join Nostr" link, but then I noticed...there it is! Awesome. 😊
So my next question to whomever runs njump.me is, any possibility of getting referral stats? That is, how many folks joined Nostr from things that I put out there?
No reason other than curiosity and that it'd be neat to say, "Hey, I got three people to join Nostr!"

This won't end well. No way $TRUMP coin should be 19 with 90% held by creators. I see a week or two of hoopla then rekt. Hype you can kinda control, especially with the biggest platform on the planet. But, simple economic laws you cannot.

Saw two juvenile screech owls perched in a tree yesterday. Today, there is only less mature one. And a storm is coming. But, it's okay. He/she is on the leeward side of the tree with lots of places to hide out if needed. He's got this.

Q: Is there anything cooler than baby owls?
A: No.
Just saw these kids in the neighborhood.

I can't decide if this is hilarious with "Humanity" doing what "World" does (those names! 😀) yet in a handsy way; or if it's worrisome with "social reputation" built in and, yawn, yet another token launch.

Just read that Mark Cuban said #bitcoin is better than gold. He gave all the right reasons. Surprised me though. I could have sworn her was a bitcoin naysayer. Asked Grok. Grok said:
Mark Cuban's opinions on Bitcoin have evolved over time, reflecting changes in the cryptocurrency market, regulatory landscape, and his own investment philosophy. Here's a summary of his stance:
Skepticism in Early Years:
Initially, Cuban was quite skeptical about Bitcoin. In 2013, he compared Bitcoin to the Dutch tulip mania, suggesting it was a speculative bubble.
Acknowledging Potential (2014-2016):
Over time, he began to see some value in Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies in general, though he still expressed caution. In interviews, he talked about the potential of blockchain technology but remained wary of the high volatility associated with Bitcoin.
Increased Interest and Investment (2017-2019):
As Bitcoin's price surged during the 2017 bull run, Cuban's interest grew. He commented on the potential for cryptocurrencies to disrupt traditional finance. However, he also warned about the risks, likening the crypto market to gambling. He did acknowledge owning some Bitcoin during this period.
Practical Use and Regulation Concerns (2020-2022):
Cuban started exploring more practical uses of cryptocurrencies, especially with his ownership of the Dallas Mavericks, which began accepting Bitcoin for merchandise. He praised Bitcoin's potential for reducing transaction fees for international payments but was vocal about the need for better regulation to combat fraud and scams in the crypto space.
Recent Views (2023 onwards):
More recently, Cuban has continued to express a balanced view. He's optimistic about the technology behind cryptocurrencies but cautious about the speculative nature of many crypto investments. He has shown support for stablecoins and the utility of blockchain beyond just Bitcoin. Cuban has also criticized the crypto industry for not handling regulatory scrutiny well, which he believes has led to unnecessary volatility and mistrust.
On Regulation: He has consistently argued for more clarity and protection for investors in the crypto space, pointing out that regulation could legitimize and stabilize cryptocurrency markets.
Investment Philosophy: While Cuban has invested in Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, his approach seems to be more about recognizing the technology's potential rather than betting heavily on price increases. He often advises caution, diversification, and due diligence.
Mark Cuban's perspective on Bitcoin has thus been characterized by an evolution from skepticism to seeing potential, while always maintaining a cautious, investor-minded approach. His comments often reflect his broader investment philosophy of understanding the underlying technology or business while being wary of market hype.
