Thanks for the feedback fren!
Liking the new look BTW, also like how you surprise the sn community like this all the time. It's usually around holidays too. Its becoming a trend.
Half of small farms across America have been eliminated. Numbers are declining rapidly.
https://m.stacker.news/23648
In coastal states, cease and desist notices have been issued with cleverly worded vague descriptions and unscientific excuses to shut down small commercial and backyard food production.
view on youtu.beSince 2018, key infrastructure, food, uranium, gas, and other supplies, storage, distribution and processing facilities have been destroyed.
Interactive map: https://www.zeemaps.com/view?group=4410859&x=-89.849631&y=44.059004&z=14
As inflation gets out of control and supplies and production are squeezed beyond anyone's ability to cope, people will starve or riot. This is avoidable.
Bitcoin fixes this with deflation, innovation, community and self-sufficiency.
If you have the capacity or means to host a meetup, engage with policy folks, or can raise awareness of these glaring red flags, please do.
Please.

You're definitely right that this is happening, but you also have to be careful about the definition of "small farm". That's often based on revenue categories that are infrequently adjusted for inflation.
Some of the decline is just farms who's nominal revenue rose above the threshold, even if the farm is the same size.
Thank you for your information. As far as I know, this chart's info is based on acreage, down to 1/4 AC market garden lots. 🌻
I recently learned that foxes are solitary animals. I did not expect this. Makes me feel even more like a fox though.
It's normal, they make a tremendous noise, who wants to walk with someone with those screams? :) By the way, I already knew, there are foxes in my area and we learned about them. They are an exception among canines. Did you know that they are friends with badgers? They can compete for food but they can also sleep in the same sett.
No, I didn't! That's pretty cool since badgers are the mascot for bitcoin.

Today is going to be a good day... SBF is finally going to be sentenced and hopefully, the judge will go over the US recommendation of 40-50 years. His charges I believe carried up to 110 years so a solid 75 with no parole till 50 served sounds good to me. Let him rot and die in jail.
And he was fined 464 million dollars plus interest!
Oh wait wrong person
I forgot about the fine... the cool $11 BILLION the US asked for sounds good to me. His family is so intertwined that there going to have to pay up as well
I found something really strange, why barely any artists or makers live close to the seaside? All you have is mostly annoying tourists or resellers and a lack of culture...like I'd have assumed that people living in such beautiful places should be more creative and make things, but NO, what is really happening is these places became seasonal tourist towns, and doing everything tailor for tourists!

I am from Panama and I would like this country to also have advances like those of El Salvador in Bitcoin. I seem crazy when I talk to someone about Bitcoin or show them how it works, they can't understand. It's kind of frustrating to want to share Bitcoin and feel like I'm speaking Chinese to them.
Today is a holiday, my daughter doesn't have classes. Guess who woke up earlier than ever? 😫
So, SBF gets sentenced today.
One for the anarchists: Does SBF belong in prison for a non-violent crime?
I believe he would owe restitution to those he defrauded.
If the defrauded cannot be made whole though, as in SBF's case, do you think that jail is warranted?
No, he should basically have a lien on all his future earnings, which slowly pays his victims back. However, there might be something like debtors prisons, but the point wouldn't be punishment, it would be to make sure the person continues working off their debt.
Exactly, this is the correct procedure: lien.
The short answer is: no. The long one: is complicated. In anarchy, you must respect the natural law (do not steal, do not do damage, do not kill). That means in anarchy these kind of things is hardly probable to happen and will be another rules.
I suggest to everybody to watch this short series by Larken Rose: The island (3 parts)
But we are not living in anarchy, so he will get jail.
Thanks for the videos. I'm listening through them now at work.
Did SBF break the natural law if customers lent him their money voluntarily? I suppose that's where the nuance lies. He defrauded customers and mismanaged the funds in a spectacular way, but did not steal directly.
I'm inclined to agree with you, but it's an interesting case to think about.
We still don't know exactly what really happen "behind the scenes". It was a master mega operation with many implications. To respect the natural law, in the first place you will never give your money to somebody else with intentions to earn yield... because that is only greed.
Only in a putrid world like we live today is possible such thing.

Right after I read your response, I saw a claim online that Biden at his SOU address was actually an AI! It's kind of funny that in my lifetime I have gone from a society who accepted every word the government said as fact, to today when the assumption is that everything the government says is a lie. Incredible

It'll be interesting to see if miners fight over the "epic" sat that gets minted at the start of the new halving cycle.
deleted by author
Yep.
So in Casey's Ordinals Theory, one can assign a rarity to sats that are minted during important moments of Bitcoin's protocol rules. These are based on the first sat minted during a new block ("uncommon"), a new difficulty adjustment ("rare"), and a new halving ("epic").
Like 'em or not, there's a market for these things and they can command some pretty outrageous prices. A "rare" sat goes for around $400k, and there are currently 415 of those. The "epic" sat is much more scarce, with only 3 currently in existence and the 4th about to be minted.
I don't think there's consensus on how much an epic sat will get valued, they're so rare that I don't think a trade has taken place. But I wouldn't be surprised if one sold for several block's worth of rewards... hence the pressure for miners to fight and reorg.
In expectation of boring responses I'll no doubt get to this comment from others: Yeah yeah, I know, ordinals are silly, you're not saying anything new or interesting. However, you cannot insulate yourself from market behavior. It's important to pay attention to these things even if you disagree with them, because they could have ramifications for the orange coin we all know and love.
deleted by author
Indeed. What's interesting to me is the idea that there are some markets one can't help but participate in.
Would I ever speculate on buying an ordinal? Hell no. But if I found that by pure chance I was in possession of one tagged to one of my UTXOs, would I sell it to someone else in order to scoop up more BTC? Hell yes.
Same here. I actually think Ordinals is great since one could argue that a theory like Ordinals coming out was as inevitable as the ETFs if we want to have bitcoin mass adoption. Ordinals is just the bitcoin version of collectible coins. I see nothing wrong with that. People are going to be people and we should let them be people.
The only thing that I can understand "bitcoiners" having a problem with is Inscriptions which builds on top of Ordinals due to their direct impact on tx fees.[1] But I still think it's important to distinguish Ordinals and Inscriptions: If you don't, you're no better than the ones who say Taproot (or even better: SegWit) was a mistake because "they enabled Inscriptions".
This so much. Regarding:
I think I am going to make a post on SN how I used
ordto check if I have some rare sats as some kind of reversed dog whistle: I expect a lot of stackers getting triggered by this and calling me a shitcoiner so this will help me to filter out the independent thinkers (like you, apparently) who don't respond or respond and are as curious as me not as tribal and simple-minded as the vast majority seems to be.imo, not an attack and not spam though. it's just hype about expensive subjective trash. ↩
They're definitely interesting. I'm very intrigued by this concept of an opt-in lens to interpret additional on-chain data.
While Casey's protocol IS somewhat arbitrary, I'd argue it cements itself via a network effect. If I came up with a different ordinals protocol, say one that counted all the sats backwards, nobody would care about it. In this sense it's not unlike Bitcoin itself versus all the copycat coins.
You should definitely make that post!

Too late to complain, this mindset transition happened ten thousand years ago when people moved from hunting and gathering to farming.
it's about the balance I think. You can have the comfort, but you need to have those skills too; maybe that's part of the reason I enjoy being a nomad - I need to have constant challenges; otherwise, I feel just existing.
I prefer living in the village, but there's no denying that cities are crucial for the advancement of civilizations. You never see a great civilization without a great city. Cities offer opportunities and also the survival of those who cannot make it on their own. The loss of survival skills is real because in cities there are other comforts that do not exist in the village. Even in the village, people are almost forced to go to the city for various reasons. It is not mandatory, but it is a facilitator. People only lose these survival skills if they become complacent. If they want to have them, they just need to want to learn.

i see things the same way
Soulfly — Back To The Primitive
view on www.youtube.comSoulfly — Back To The Primitive@Public_N_M_E, have you heard of this band?
Yessir I know soulfly, but I don't think I've heard this track before. Sounds Ace!
It's not very well known. Only true metalheads know it ;) What you might not know is that the vocalist of Soulfly is Max Cavalera, who co-founded Sepultura in 1983 with his brother Igor Cavalera. I really like this Brazilian born tribal metal.
I love sepultura 😜 I got to see them live, they played a small venue in my hometown and it was fantastic. They were supported by soil I think? 🤔 Or it could have been nonpoint... I can't remember.
You can have the same advancing civilization also in small villages. Is not necessary to stay in mega cities, just for advancing technology. Cities are a fucking prison and a disadvantage to people. People lose important qualities just because they live in those prisons. It's a rat race and they still do not realize that they are the victims.
also not a single master that I've met is living in a big city, quite interesting.
@Natalia leaving the comfort to learn. 👀
They are "happy" with their crappy city things... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e9dZQelULDk
My husband and I love this video and it is just like that. Every time I use public transport, train or bus, and I see people running around me desperately as if they were going to die for taking 2 minutes, all with their suits and lunch boxes for work, where they will spend 1 hour going to work. , 10 hours in it, plus 1 hour or more back home, all to repeat the same thing over and over again every day, in places where they do not enjoy being, working for the dreams of others. I run away from that lifestyle, it's not even for me.
