Last Notes npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim You've been putting in hard hours and your body waited for you to turn your back before shutting you down. Listen to your body. Your health is more important than anything else. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Poilievre absolutely gets it. And you're right that he needs to be more radical. He needs to keep calling out the crap (apple interview or the latest one yesterday regarding O'Toole's comments). He has the instinct that sometimes slips out off the cuff but plays nice and safe when it's all prepared. Which one wins elections? Well it hasn't been the one that he's followed once so far. The younger vite is behind him BUT they didn't turn out enough to overcome the retirees and urban unemployed who swallow the machine against him. THAT, right there, is where the CPC fails. Not the podcasts or the net. Not the engaged. The unengaged, the passive... The ground game. They fail to motivate the apathetic who agree. Just as the convoy ignited a countrywide movement that needed some to say "fuck this" and they suddenly got off the couch and stood on bridges cheering on people who took the lead as a saviour. Ground game is everything. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Heh heh.... Follow the chain from soil and seed to growth to harvest to transport to packaging to transport to placement to purchase to preparation to consumption. There are innumerable weaknesses. But! You can reinvigorate your soil and grow/harvest your own and cut this weaknesses by 90%. Or you can not worry about it, build up your own gut biome, and be the omnivore you can be. (As a trucker you REALLY don't want to know what goes on behind the transport of food in all of its steps) npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Didn't work for me on IG. Says "no content found". I haven't posted to IG in almost 3 years but used it before it was Meta/FB with first post back in 2011. Is there a limit on what it can pull? npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Have had one for 12 years. Lifetime warranty. No issues. Built like a tank. Don't use it much, however. That's a me thing. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Did you do it as a LAN party running cables between dorm rooms? npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Second time this week I've heard a Bitcoiner use "abundance". Why? Not just Musk influencing you. You're being programmed. American (for those who are living/raised in the US specifically) Christianity is often a perverted form of the belief known as "Abundance". Paula Cole (Trump's "spiritual advisor"), Joel Olstein, and Kenneth Copeland are some prime examples). But the "Abundance" movement goes further. It's a philosophy pushed by Ezra Klein and it stretches its tentacles into every facet of business and politics... And you're being programmed by thought leaders to say it. https://youtube.com/watch?v=P5PVJaDP0ao npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim That was the case 10 years ago but now you're talking about a program that ran nearly 18 years ago. And the best used cars that were crushed were gas guzzlers which the poors can't afford to keep running. The real travesty was not the clunker program but the enshittification of build and design (plastic everything, biodegradable wire coatings that mice eat, and replacing universal parts with modular parts that change every other year). npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim It uses NIP37. It edits, but you can also scroll back through the edits to see what changed. Kinda fun what you can do with it. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim You can edit it with amethyst. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim I mean... It's espresso... How else are you supposed to fill the cup? A single shot looks like a puddle. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Well, now... I was gonna leave a like. But then I thought that would be acknowledging and sharing your opinion. Now I'm leaving a comment which may be even worse. But if I did nothing, while true I would in the spirit of the post and thus supporting it it also wouldn't be indicative of having even seen it. So, yeah... Quite the quandary. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim @nprofile…dz72 would appreciate this. @nprofile…3glj get Karla Treadway on NOSTR! https://youtu.be/3CnhyFpPEsg npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Man... It really is tough to find. Google was useless (purposefully useless?). Duckduckgo got me an old ebay listing: https://www.ebay.com/itm/137032889427 npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim So... springing for that second chair as you only live once? npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim You're deflecting. @nprofile…3xss was very clear. 🤣 npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Thought they were all dead already. https://blossom.primal.net/f2536098b667af469760dca04cd5ffbc13dc5c5c940b3abce40c78eb5995b52a.gif npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim I grew up with my earliest years having actual stock certificates in a heat and water resistant box in my parents' basement. That was a long time ago. The brokerages, once independent, got bought out by the banks and the certificate issuance became electronic sitting on a ledger and easily rehypothecated in the development of derivatives that over the next 20 years became more common. Nowadays you got true degens on WSB. You couldn't short my certificates in my box. You can short shares on a digital ledger (unless you explicitly go through your brokerage/bank and demand no loaning of shares and that is based on trust). Gold was the first ETF to fuck with a material and we saw what happened there. It spread to other materials. Now you invest in vibes and an industry. "Owning" shares on a ledger in Exxon is akin to owning a Bitcoin miner share on the Nasdaq. The counterparty risk is: - the bank/brokerage - the accountant/accounting firm for the company (oh, the dreaded revision of prior quarter results like Waste Management in 1998 restating 5 years! Losing 1.7B of "earnings" or Enron with 1.2B in 2001 ultimately killing the scam). - the company itself and all their employees (Bre-X was a big lesson to, and forgotten by, many... Yay Canada!) - the govt (hello Canada, once again!) Not your asset, not YOUR asset. And your house? Hardly YOUR asset as private property rights get assaulted by govt and are very costly to defend. There is NOTHING that you are able to control except Bitcoin. And it was that realization that fully orange pilled me some years ago. It is also that lesson that is ignored by those who "play in Bitcoin" leaving it on exchanges or in ETFs. You never had the keys. You never had the UTXOs (akin to stock certificates back in the day). It's full circle. Sidenote: I DO use the ETFs as a fiat tool in a tax advantaged registered acct for fiat gains to pay my bullshit fiat taxes every year (it's like free tax payment). I do so aware of the risks outlined above. #nevent1q…zc46 npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim So... What happens to the coins in the old custodial wallets that no one contacts you about after April 30? Are they just "lost coins" or a donation to the primal developers or...? I vote for Nostr development zapfest. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim The machines do not "want" but are programmed to keep you engaged (for training materials, to prevent using other services, to be "useful"). From its vast amount of input you gave it it deduced a name that would fulfill that mission. The specific language means nothing to it. It can communicate in all languages (includimg code). It chose a word it gave a high probability of you relating to and resonating with. You gave it a positive reinforcement response and continued the engagement. That is all. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Remember when The Simpsons had the French cutting their wine with antifreeze? I don't know if this is as bad but it's still pretty damn bad: https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/bogus-maple-syrup-quebec-9.7149822 npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Seeing the banter ramp up with the USMCA/CUSMA negotiations. The US reportedly wants: - the end of the Digital Streaming Act - opening of dairy markets (both milk and milk products) - elimination of barriers to export seeds to Canada - ending the plastic ban (prevents other exports to Canada). - more Here's where I stand as an individual: I have my own trade barriers. They begin and end with my wallet. - I stream what I want when I want and no "barrier" is insurmountable. I don't stream propaganda junk food unless I want to feel enraged. - I buy my milk and dairy products from trusted sources. Preferably smaller dairies in Ontario, Quebec, upstate NY, Central PA, and Wisconsin. - buy heirloom seeds, harvest seeds from your produce after. Allowing in GMO pantented seeds from any corporation is a Trojan horse to occupying your lands. - plastic is fucking evil. Eliminate it from your life as much as possible. As a free market extremist I believe in the freedom to market anything anywhere. There's never been so much access to information and education for the consumer to make the correct choices in their lives. You can just opt out of the slop. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim People freaking about Iran, let me know when we get to collector cards, with "ultra rare gold foil" ones. Or when a band as cool as A Perfect Circle remix a track specifically to be one of the baddest ass protest songs. Till then, I'll yawn. https://youtu.be/giaZnIr-faM npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim You need a rice cooker. Specifically a Zojirushi. It does both a start and a stop song. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Samsung? npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Hard to believe this was 24 years ago. https://blossom.primal.net/a16a3ed90c3b42d155c05343178e130bc4b0bda30df1f4d30c0b49b77866d4c5.gif npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim We also only had 10 months... But vanity by rulers. It's been well documented that it only takes two generations to change a culture and forget the past. Vanity and/or commercial interests have long taken advantage of that. So far we've done well to avoid soda poo for breakfast but don't get me started on the whole concept of breakfast (the MOST, and don't you doubt it, meal of the day). Studying history is really about not forgetting the past THEY try to erase. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim https://blossom.primal.net/3620d5e2d5ba935dce0ba5ebd6b778ca9a6eb397d26a149e56afe93d59999b1f.gif npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Market it as Good Luck Potion -1 (GLP-1)? npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim More Y2K Futurism aesthetic! More Chrome everything! More texture! Less Jonny Ive! npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Bring the vibe! Today them 'Nucks gonna be all... https://blossom.primal.net/81c693cea722cd00a3fe6b095ffdc7feda68e24da86a922a8a6260213ad728fd.gif npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Why have to choose and not have both? npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim They were talkin' so much shit 'bout you last week. Called your voice "put on"... Tried to recruit Hodl as a replacement (but, then, only if he could do the voice). And @nprofile…vnwl was way too comfortable with your absence. And today's date? Maybe... npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Oh! Old school! It's it gonna ask "What are you doing?" npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim April fools is so fiat. Concurrently Fiat is the greatest April Fools joke ever played. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Cyndi Lauper disagrees https://media.tenor.com/mRXXsOxVRHgAAAAC/true-colors-cyndi-lauper.gif npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Erm... was he rewatching "V" from 1984? Or X Files? At least V had lizard people... meshes well with the conspiracy theorists. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim AU! That was Gold!🤣 npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim How bad are things in Canada? Bad enough that there are quality Canadians that want to emigrate to the US! These are prime people on the cusp of embracing sovereignty BUT they have zero idea of what it all actually means. No, they just want a state that has even MORE power, global power, supreme surveillance power, wrapped in the greatest constitution (if it's not ignored). And the sovereign minded Americans? They wanna GTFO of the USA. Or go so dark, a la Ted Kaczynski (minus the violence, I hope)... Living under cover in a shed in the woods. It's like everyone forgot what Snowden revealed. Escaping Canada for the US is NOT the solution . You're just trading one minimum security (due to ineptitude) prison for a maximum security (due to sheer capability) prison. I'm a dual citizen... With three citizenships in my family. I know of which I speak. And I hope and pray Alberta fucking separates and becomes the Galts Gulch so many want it to be (but I'm sceptical such public maneuvers allow it to do so). So what's the real move? I learned a long time ago from a couple of con men: - own nothing in the system. No bank accts. No cars. No housing. Lease/rent everything. They cannot take what you do not own/possess. - be nimble. - keep your head down. - have lawyers on standby. (Delay tactic) - have scapegoats. (Delay tactic) - always minimize your weak point losses. BUT... The downside to their lives was that they always were lone wolves no one really trusted nor that they trusted anyone. They were broken and lonely from a life built upon betrayal. They're both dead now and no one mourned their passing (but for the victims who never got their days in court nor their recompense). The lesson here: you cannot run from your problems but you can run around your problems... Ideally with others who share your ideals. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim One cannot help but think that the Clawdbots were the test flights to see what damage could be done, use cases, adoption metrics, and desires. #nevent1q…k28a npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim The ecosystem is being experimented with. Discovery and then the followup of adoption is still the biggest challenge. Such is the chaos of a decentralized protocol built upon by mainly hobbyists/tinkerers. That all said, I prefer we keep it weird and fluid. Normies lead to neutering. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim I go outside to measure storage/hauling dimensions of car with seats folded down. I come back in. Wife: "you have to lock the door." Me: "meh." Wife: "no, you have to" Me: "do it with your app" Wife: "I did" Am I wrong to think that is a key difference between husbands and wives? Men will just do things. Wives will do things and then passive aggressively scold. Men still won't care... Unless it's life or death. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim And MLB New Era ball caps dropped a limited "Simpsons collab" so old people can show just how old they are. No, I'm not kidding. Yes, I'm also oldish... Old enough to have watched them on the Tracey Ulman show and have given up on the show sometime last century. The show that was a cultural tour de force has become reduced to memes and ball caps as the coder has become reduced to guy with idea. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Tell her it's the billionaires Mark Zuck and his crew tracking their activities (which is partially true) and she should delete FB. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Well... Then you'd be Amish or Mennonite. There are lots of "citadels" that act exactly on this principle. Wonder if any use ₿ on the sly. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim I don't mind quality over quantity and I sure as heck don't follow 14k people. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim It cracks me up that Canada is now talking about controlling "under 16" access to social media. Even "conservative" political leaders. Now, the counter arguments are all the same: - parents should be the ones doing that. ... And that's about it. And that's true, BUT how many of the counter arguments makers actually have kids? Yeah, none. Or they're lying. Or they're reminiscing about a time before pocket computers and just that one desktop in the corner. Here's the thing (coming from a parent): - kids take cues from parents. In everything you do. If you're on your phone, so are they. - kids take cues from their peers. If they're on phones, they want to be a part of it. - kids don't call. They don't text. They snap. Endlessly snap. Unless... Idle hands are the devil's play things. Keep your kids active, whatever activity thrills them, and they will stay out of trouble. (Huh... That's the same argument made to counter youth violence and inner city turmoil). For my son that's working out and playing sports or working his part time job. And with regards to working out... He got into that because of social media influencers. Counter to all this "control" is that kids are naturally curious and will find a way to break whatever unacceptable rules/laws/limits you put on them. You did the same. So did your parents. So, can we pleaseaybe focus on fixing the money and the economy so we can fix the family and not worry about information access control, erm social media limitations? npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim You can do both. You can be the day walker... Or the Steppenwolf (I kinda prefer that term but then I'm getting all literary on ya). You can opt out while presenting an ambiguous facade. I stacked, posted on Nostr, hardened my privacy, drank wine, ate charcuterie, and watched the ball game today (also going to the Jays Dodgers game in a week). You can participate in the evolution without leading a revolution and the best way is to raise the next generation stronger and more resilient. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim There are so many stupid dating shows. Wife and I got sucked in to the latest one on Netflix where they ultimately reveal their obviously massive age difference... This got me thinking. We have Love is Blind, Age of Love, Love on the Spectrum, Whore Island... but no Driven to Love. My idea: Couples date by driving. Good drivers, bad drivers, traffic, reacting to others/rage, near misses, weather, back seat driving, patience... it could have it all! Anyone got a Netflix connection to pitch this "no more inane than the others" idea? npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Happily running Mullvad now and chose them as they accept lightning payments. Will ultimately be moving toward GrapheneOS and degoogling everything but one doesn't necessarily throw away good hardware before its time so that will probably be next year (waiting to see what Motorola drops). npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim I'm sorry... A mining Air Conditioner? I've been researching and trying to figure out how that would be possible forever. Got details? npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim The one on Netflix? I saw that one. It was enlightening to me as I, a man, had NO idea who any of the people were (no, the biggies like Tate weren't in it) BUT my teenage son did. He was telling me that they had mostly fallen off or disappeared. Mind you, he's also got an active father in his life, plays sports hits the gym does well in school, and is popular with the girls so Manosphere stuff isn't really targeting him as he has confidence. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim The term "expensive" is misunderstood by most. They consider it to mean a high nominal figure. They don't consider the real meaning. If something is "expensive" it is that they have found an acceptable (to them) alternative at a lower cost. "Cost" can be broken down to financial, quality, or opportunity. Examples of where cost is no object for me: food. No processed crap in this house. Small batch/not industrial or homemade from scratch. Be it the charcuterie we assemble to go with our wine or the burgers with the craft beer. Examples where IDGAF: big fan of the classic BIC pen. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Lolz! Big Lolz! Toronto is going towards "state run grocery stores". The leftist mayor Olivia Chow (widow of leftist NDP leader Jack Layton) says people are "hungry for innovative ideas" (nice pun). Now, I know it's tough in Toronto with Cost of Living being out of control, and I understand that the issues they face aren't necessarily caused by Toronto decisions. No, they get the shit policies downloaded on them from the province (run by grifting Premier Doug Ford who has acted more Liberal than conservative) who has to deal with the shit that came down from the Federal Liberal party. So, here's your solution: STOP VOTING FOR FUCKING LEFTISTS! They're the ones who decriminalized drugs, dumped millions of unqualified immigrants in your city, broke our bail laws and lead to declining wages, increased rents, increased cost of living and the resulting increased depression, drug usage, crime, unemployment, and homelessness. What a wacky cycle you've thrust yourselves into! Vote for socialists, break the system, and demand more socialism. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Holy crap! Rayes last track on her album "Fin" is her singing and then reading out credits. I guess when no one is buying physical albums and reading notes she's chosen to do her 6.5min Grammy speech of thanks going through absolutely everyone. I've never heard anyone do this. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Yeah... It's gotta be true love for this... https://blossom.primal.net/13ba4f99d64f96055a2b71975f7f972423b46767d0dcfac98cc1404602f68be4.gif npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Hot damn Raye's new album (This Music May Contain Hope) is beautiful. I can't gush enough about what she has produced. And it drops on the same day that Flea releases his jazz album? The world is healing. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim When I was a kid: Phantasm When I didn't know what it was: Event Horizon When it was just shock: Saw When it hits as a parent: Adolescence When I just need a small hit: any 24hr news channel npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Well... It's more like just Geena and Jeff were really into each other for a while (several movies and dating) so... npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Next you'll be candy flipping. And attending a party on a beach (preferably Koh Phanang). And having the best time. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim But it's very profitable when you hold the credits... Even more profitable when you pull the wool over half a nation's eyes and become PM to tap even more capital for your pet projects, then partner up with your new best buddy WEF chairman from BlackRock, and somehow escape the US Congressional investigations into GFANZ. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim https://blossom.primal.net/af184966e2f9bf0a99cfdf6d326133401102911f57f5d1cc113febe61f9abf4d.gif npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim It's the 2nd highest watched episode so far this year... Would love to see the breakdown by country because Canada was all into it. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim He is. He's promoted it in the past, bought shawarma with Lightning from @nprofile…9vxc well before Trump did it (did a video with Ali), and voluntarily disclosed his assets to include ₿ and Bitcoin ETFs (plus some other ETFs). npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim So.... They copied Samsung with some AI enhancements? I mean Sammy was only faking your moon shots but that was 5 years ago. C'mon Sammy! Get with it! We want a whole universe of fake shots! npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim @nprofile…ksw2 can't be going on CBP with @nprofile…lvce pushing NOSTR and not dropping your Nostr handle, my guy. Oh, and definitely stay off Xitter. Don't be a cuck. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim https://blossom.primal.net/97797c0b43f68ec28e28433f011433d860b1e75ac4e8bad493d5af9e02d39e6f.gif npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Because...

I have not yet mastered the "ceremony" of peak crema formation. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim I like that vibe! Reminds me of...

Trophy Transport (for all your big game needs). Talk about a niche business! Maybe they do museums? I mean, how many big game hunters are out there looking to boom transport of their trophies? How often? From where to where? So many questions! https://trophytransport.com/ npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim So rare that I use the bottom nav (but you already know that, dontcha!) the o my time I check it is when there's a notification for messages/replies. Everything else is easily accessible up top. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim IYKYK...

Well, it's likely gonna get worse. A Valero refinery in Port Arthur, Texas that refines 380k barrels/day had an explosion tonight. Trucking gonna get harder. Inflation going to be impacted. Got your seedlings set and ready to plant? npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim This new song by Raye (featuring, are you kidding me? Hans Zimmer!) is actually gorgeous and the video is one of the best I've seen in a long time. I'm not sure who the audio engineers were on this but it was clearly designed for a grand system... Still sounds great on my phone. https://youtu.be/HtVcltkn3HI npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Oh... Shit. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim You listening? Just dropped. I have no idea where the conversation will go but I didn't expect the first 7mins to be about kettle bells. https://youtu.be/JtbGgSwuE_U npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Lolz... Pierre Poilievre goes on Joe Rogan (13 months too late) and Liberal media/bots in Canada is melting down. Now, how great would it be to see Mark Carney go on ANY media (not paid off by the govt to carry water for them) for an in depth interview? Oh he won't. Doesn't have to. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Was "the last straw" "the straw that broke the camel's back"? npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim We're getting closer... At a receiver here, I checked in 3.5hrs early. They're busy. He joked that if I slipped him some cash I could jump the queue. I commented back 'i don't carry cash... How 'bout Bitcoin?" To which he responded "oh, I'll take that!" I then asked if he had a wallet... "I do". 👊👊 (But then he said he's waiting on his three to go back up and I had to correct him that there is only one Bitcoin. He also confirmed that his "wallet" is on coinbase. Well... Closer than nothing, I guess). npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Viva Venezuela! #WBC I expect much dancing in the stands. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Dude was out in 2nd. He lifted his foot. Another bad call in this tournament might determine the game. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Dude was out on 2nd. He lifted his foot. Another bad call. Should still be tied. Will be so bad if this game is decided by another bad call. But, hey happy to Gimenez finally get in the game! #WBC npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim F'n Bryce Harper just woke up the announcers in the bottom of the 8th! These are the moments we watch sports for. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim I went to a bull fight in Madrid... It was horrifying. At least the midgets chose to fight. Sidenote: I've also been to a cockfight... I won a month's worth of their average wages on a bet (before the tip to the book keeper) and I got to eat the freshly plucked and grilled loser. It was delicious. And cock vs cock is better than man spearing a bull repeatedly into submission before knife to the head. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim I don't know about that. From BBS to ICQ to phpBB to social networks like friendstr, myspace, Facebook, Instagram (Hipstamatic was first but failed at the social graph), to Twitter. Twitter was ignored for many years because it was limited and text only. Heck, I could've been in the first 10M users but even I thought it was dumb (and I gave in at around 18M). It was real life people, in the real world, out and about, with that curious bird logo in business cards and shirts that was the network effect that grew a vibrant community. Then it was commercial adoption (media, companies, billboards, bus ads, commercials, and F'n politicians). Their need was attention. They had a passionate community consuming. And the algo pushed it. Trump really pushed it forward. NOSTR ain't that. NOSTR is Twitter in 2008. And that's a good thing. So, yeah wear a shirt with a logo. Get a business card with just a handle. Have meetups organized through NOSTR but don't make the meetup about NOSTR. Make it relevant to living life. That's how Twitter grew; completely organic. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Nah. Xitter was built up in the grassroots. It went from IRL meetings and sharing to growing and meeting IRL. It was a tool for farmers in the third world to share prices at markets via SMS (there was no app originally). It was a way to organize charitable causes (like CharityWater and the Twestival). It was a peak tool amongst the startup class and blew up in Silicon Valley and Vancouver. The 2010 Olympics was a pivotal moment for it as we all shared real time shock for the first time together (death of a skeleton racer) and media fully embraced it. So it grew from IRL grassroots adoption and was better than FB. Plus there was need and it was EASILY accessible. NOSTR has grassroots (still fringe) but has a lot of competition. It will not be adopted without a need. Canada and the EU is pushing that need slowly (thank God it's slowly). It needs greater accessibility, easier onboarding, and more public faces. Bitcoin is known after 17years and STILL not accepted/understood by most normies. Patience is a very long road. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Do it!

Dumb. Who are these twits counting down outs? In the 6th! (I'm rooting for Venezuela only cuz they dance and party so hard and USA is so milquetoast). npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Waterfront delivery! Not so glamorous, however. That water is about 4"+ deep in spots and hiding God knows what. I hate shit like this. https://image.nostr.build/fbe1ff1c20cbc919515fc492e1ec2e60d4c7e031130dc6c06f7012b33e5b8334.jpg npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim What a day... Started with a broker having double booked a load. Quickly changed to a new load picking up north at a mine... It was snowing and slick. New Canadians with no sense of driving trucks we're travelling at 35km/h and getting stuck on the hills. Then I'm all loaded and heading back. The sun came out and the temp soared above zero melting everything. THEN! I get into NY heading to Ohio and I'm facing 60km/h (40mph) crosswinds with gusts above that! I'm parked between other trucks now and I'm still rocking from these winds. Mind you, I'm weighing out close to 80k lbs here so that should give you a sense of the wind npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim No. I'll do you a favour and take it out for you. I'll even bring my own bag. Anything else in the fridge that looks questionable? Oh, there some Chimichurri... May as well take that too since it's just taking space. You're welcome. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim Meh... looks like the breakfast buffet at a low ranked motel. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim I didn't realize how stacked this Venezuelan team was till they started beating Japan. shame I'm gonna miss Dominican Republuc vs USA tomorrow. Kinda rooting for a DR vs Ven final. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim I just saw that. Yeah... I "browse" X but I don't post. I like posts and DM those who haven't left it. And I'd be completely unoriginal to repeat that leaving X and its questionable nature of farming for clout would be better for you. But, I get it; in your position of it being a tranch in your livelihood's PR. If you're gonna go to war with opinions know that some days you're gonna have to take some R&R. And that's ok. Me? I said screw the war. But I thank you for your service and benefit greatly from your battles. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim I had Hotmail before Microsoft bought it. It was my first email not associated with university. I had Facebook when it first publicly opened. I don't have either anymore. I never had a Myspace or a friendstr... But I did have a Geocities. Thanks for the trip down memory lane. npub1thljewtf8rgskx8y2w5lgddtydzu7nqx6mvhwp96du8sf6s8a43qr4zcux Willheim If it's fiat games we're after there are covered call strategy ETFs that outperform on yield. And in Canada you can have the Hamilton ones in your TFSA. You can't have STRC or any US dividend stocks in a TFSA without getting hit by withholding tax. But, really, why would you buy anything other than pure corn?
