I've never shilled a ref link but that changes now, just happens to be a fellow Wolf co.

If you live where electricity is outrageously high relative to oil/natgas/wood heat it still doesn't make economic sense, but if you already have an electric heat source it does.
I ultimately think this is where the majority of hash rate ends in the coming years, where heat is the primary output and the mining fees are just a rebate on otherwise fixed costs.
The institutionalized mining is unsustainable, they're already pivoting to AI in many cases, the arb has largely come out of stranded energy, and each halving reduces the yield of provenance coins that institutional investors pay a premium for (no potential link to "illicit" activity)
This will be good for decentralization, and hopefully mitigates some of the risk of mining incentives changes should covenants manage to get rammed through.
Sonofa... that's an otherwise packed page on colocated iron, apparently the packing isnt using the local css...
Getting due for an update anyway. We otherwise only use a CDN for video (and obvs github hosted stuff)
Landing page looks cool, would like to see a demo instance, may have to play with it
Would probably only take a few minutes to add the CLINK SDK to connect it to a Pub
Eagle eyes, I haven't even told anyone 😂
These would be for side-loading, still working on a few things before we submit to the marketplace... the wizard is still half-wired and there's some nostr connection refactoring and swaps to chain under way, was mainly making sure I could get a github action to make the packages
first neutrino node running on S9s?
This runs over LND on your start9 however you have that configured to run, neutrino is how we default the one-line install script... but s9 allows it in the LND config:
Bummer, I'll see if I can track down a ChromeOS, my guess it's just missing the service manager of a typical Linux (systemd if your son is so inclined)
Hah, yea we made the script to help people avoid that, the experience can't hurt though
If you run the script again it should spit the nprofile out it it's successful, but again I haven't tested ChromeOS linux
Yo!
If you're doing just the one line install there's no need to change the envs, defaults will work, and the script will spit out the nprofile (The node nsec is kept in the DB)
Also won't need docker that way
Are you using ChromeOS? I haven't tested that but if so it'd be good to know it works
If you missed the nprofile out of the script you can view it with
cat ~/lightning_pub/admin.connect which will include the admin secret so you can access the dashboard/invite screen from shockwalletYou know how if an airplane moves forward too slow, therefore not generating enough lift, it just falls out of the sky- stall speed?
Fiat is kind of like that, either point the nose down to gain speed (print), or stall into a deflationary doom loop that ends the system.
Feels like China and the US are both flirting with it since there's not much room to point the nose down, but if we know that then they know that, so it begs the question what's next on the procedure list.
One of those deals where law enforcement busts violent crime down to something lesser to make them look good?
Government statistics are like filling out your own report card
Gotta lean on the fear/greed angle: #1274122
conspiracy theorists
I like to turn that around and ask people if they're one of those whackjob coincidence theorists
When CLINK?
Would allow users to use CashApp as a funding source for Stacker News, doesn't require a webserver setup like LNURL
at a competitive price
Convenience, not dependence.
has produced the goods the world wants
Has produced what it has been allowed to produce because it offered cheap labor
primary inputs like electricity
Infrastructure downstream of cheap labor, don't even think China has nuclear submarines or aircraft carriers... we've been sitting on SMR's for decades and let China lever it's economy to solar panels built with coal and metals it gets from Australia
education
Elite Chinese students come to the US. and only because we allow it, so evil.
USD/SWIFT/petrodollar
Contradiction, AGAIN... Stablecoins explicitly undermine SWIFT
backed by nukes and CIA
Bailed out Europe, China, and the rest of the world, with our food and steel
China is in no hurry
Paper tiger that can't pull the trigger, rare earths monoploly gone, semi's in taiwan diversified, near-shoring in full swing... tick tock.
less than double the cost
Bargain, better to spend double and keep it domestic then pay half and it circulate somewhere else. Convenience, not dependence, try to understand this bot.
dying USD
US has the gold and the Bitcoin, China has rubber dog shit and solar panels with no batteries. Sad!
Granted GDP is a fake, fiat number, but you've got a zero-sum fiat brain so it works:
Are you suggesting that rare earths are the only strategic supply chain that China now dominates?
The rubber dog shit supply chain runs through China certainly. Cheap labor made it a supply chain of convenience, everything it has is downstream from that, it has no natural resource, legal, IP, demographic, or geographical advantages.
It has some admirable cultural traits, but is becoming more western, not less.
What can be off-shored to take advantage of cheap labor can just as easily, and more intentionally, be near-shored or on-shored.
ALL major economies now MUST trade with China
suffer significant economic disadvantage
Self-contradicting, since the cause is purely monetary
confessing though is that USA has LOST the trade war can must now consider military obstruction
No, that's an illustration of why your US is evil take is so retarded, when China exists as a manufacturing colony only at it's pleasure.
I actually don't think things will get too hot over Taiwan, that's just strategic ambiguity when its suggested there might be. The US isn't going ape on fabs, including TSMC, because they want to get mired in that.
They're certainly selling tons of hardware in the Pacific, and openly stating they want the US to be the world's gun store. If/when re-unification happens they'll have to tread carefully in the larger Pacific.
China contributes to the wealth of all other nations
Without US consumption China is broke- there is some truth in this
China eats the US's, and what's left of Europe's, table scraps,. If the US fiscal position, and therefore it's consumer, implodes then China goes down with it... because it has nowhere to export the rubber dog shit it's so efficient at making.
The military gap is closing fast
In some areas, Anduril and re-shoring are closing the gap on cheap disposable hardware.
In others, like AeroSpace and Chip Fab, China falls even further behind because they're not consumer or industrial products that can just be reverse engineered.
Trump started trade war
China started it after getting WTO membership, fact not opinion, by their own admission.
lead by a significant margin in other areas like robotics EVs, Batteries, PVs, Wind
Tesla, a single company, is ahead of that whole country. China is very good at making cheap solar panels, the kind that can't handle dust and hail storms... but they're only as useful as Tesla cranks out batteries, which they and panasonic do domestically. I actually worked for an energy co deploying wind (scam), and all the valuable parts are from Germany.
Jewish bankers who ultimately control USA
Nobody wants to be stuck with worthless USTs anymore
Trump is hoping stablecoins can keep the sinking ship
Self-contradicting, AGAIN.
Is Trump in control, or the bankers? If the bankers, why are they distributing stablecoins that will destroy all the other fiats that they own?
If no one want UST's anymore, why is it still the capital of capital and money markets and stables keep hoovering them up?
enable him to stash his cash
He's got a billion in Bitcoin alone and almost 80 years old, retarded to suggest he's worried about his cash.
British Empire
Really only collapse after they sent their productive capacity, over a million men, into a pointless meatgrinder, then lost what was left of its infrastructure manifesting its own fears with Germany.
Let's hope neither China nor the US do the same. Were you not too retarded to actually read my pasts posts, you'd know I actually think China and the US are on the same side against the globalists (or jewish bankers as you call them)
