An insane number of people around the world spend at least four months each year heating their homes and offices using electricity. Seems like a lost opportunity to help decentralize mining. Of course home mining isn't the most efficient way to acquire sats but maybe being able to actually achieve the goal of separating money from state requires a trade-off. It's unprofitable to run a validating node but nobody's trying to discourage that.

1k 'Orange people' are about to become the new 'colored people'. This reminds me of something I heard Russell Means say some years back: "Welcome to the Reservation, we are all Indians now."

500 Is this that Mandela effect? Seems like we all remember the Reagan assassination attempt as happening a couple years after he took office but Wikipedia says it happened 3/30/81 like two months into his presidency.

1k I like how you guys aren't just crying about the size of the federal government but actually trying to visualize solutions to re-integrate former federal employees back into being productive members of society. This is an easily overlooked detail for those who've never experienced being 'dumped back into the world' after ETS-ing out of the military.

1k Another issue with unvented propane heaters is the moisture and soot produced. A properly functioning propane heater burns relatively clean *if* it has clean combustion air. I've seen unvented propane turn walls brown in just one winter without ever setting off the CO detector because it was installed in a dusty environment.

1k Bitcoin podcast = bad audio is usually only half true. The host's audio is usually clear as a bell while their guest's audio (most important part of the episode) sounds awful.

1k Thanks for lighting a fire under our butts with the BitAxe episode. It's like having a scratcher ticket that refreshes every ten minutes while motivating you to learn more about mining.

1k Why did X and FB take down the suspect's account? Perhaps a better question is why do these screwballs always have their profiles set to 'public'? If you're not an iNfLuEnCeR, why do you need to broadcast everything to the whole world [says the hypocrite cross-posting this to Nostr and the valueverse 🤣]?

1k "Hits are created by being good, and repetition." And unfortunately for guys stuck on construction crews in the 90s that only played the country station on the work truck radio, we learned that if there's a shortage of 'good', the station will try to make up for it through repetition. 🤣

1k Unintentional ability to horizontal scroll definitely hurts the PWA experience. Also, issues with notifications: either you don't get them at all, or tapping on one opens the browser instead of the PWA. Now that we have folding phones with different screen resolutions on the same device, I can't imagine the nightmare of trying to make all of this stuff "just work".
