Amazon Kindle 4th generation (not the backlit, touchscreen one, rather the old version). You can buy a used one for about $25 - https://www.ebay.com/itm/134613535149. I've had about 4 of them, they last forever but you will ding the screen up if you drop something hard like keys on the screen. I don't connect the wifi, I just transfer books via cable (easy with Calibre). With no connection, it's like a book and not a distraction device. And practically speaking you really can't browse the web even if you're connected, it's so painfully slow and awkward, without a touch screen

I should probably say "no highly processed foods". Pasta, cheese, cottage cheese, raisins, things like that, are processed. But I still buy them. Sometimes it's a fuzzy line. But if it existed 100 years ago, I'll usually consider it fine.

My diet is a no processed food diet. And that means as close to zero processed foods as possible, no purchased snacks or junk food unless the circumstances are extreme. I almost always buy foods that are at a very low level of processing - for me that means fruits, veggies, nuts, grains, milk, cheese, eggs, meat, fish, all are okay. Single ingredient canned or frozen foods are okay. It's amazing how few of the foods in the grocery store pass this criteria. You might call it a "buy ingredients" diet.

And the "no processed foods" is a strict limit for me, it's not a "processed foods in moderation is fine". I find that moderation is far more difficult. Having a line in the sand that you don't cross is much, much easier than one would think.

This means cooking a lot. I do go out to restaurants occasionally, I guess technically that's processed foods, but mostly it's cooking at home.

I don't try to buy organic. I honestly think organic is a bit of a scam.

I do have treats and "junk food". The thing is, I make all of them. I bake my own cookies, etc. I'm under no illusion that my snacks are healthier than purchased snacks. They probably are, but the real benefit is that it takes effort and time. You can also get into some interesting food related hobbies. For instance, candy making, and making fancy popsicles (which are lots easier than ice cream and just as good, and also limited in portion).

I grind my own wheat. It's quite fun, and pre-ground whole wheat flour goes bad quickly, whereas the actual wheat kernels keep forever. I bake my own bread, because it's easy and tasty, and you get picky once you've had your own bread.

It's a process. The first step for me was to say an absolute no to french fries, which I always had problems with. Next was - no fried foods (unless I fry it myself). Now I'm at "no processed foods", and it works very well for me.

The other thing I do that's a little different is extended water fasting. Extended, for me, is 3 days or so. I never got further than 4. There are some very powerful, astonishing benefits, even if you're not trying to lose weight. You will lose weight, of course, but it'll come back quickly unless you're trying to keep it off, which means changing habits.

I just searched for this on Google, Brave and DuckDuckGo.

wasabi wallet

My first result everywhere was wasabiwallet.io, which I assume is the correct site.

But on DuckDuckGo, the 6th result was wasabiwallet.in. I assume that's the fake wallet. Looks pretty plausible.

It would be interesting to know why, for you, it was the first result. Scary.

Could you explain more about searching the "galaxy"?

Very interesting. Are you planning on incorporating anything from Where There Is No Doctor? There's interesting info on the https://covid19criticalcare.com/ site as well.

+1 for sure. There's a health related topic I really want to bring up.

Switching from a Ledger to a SeedSigner would greatly LOWER the security? Would you mind explaining a little further, I don't understand.

Right, I got that. So it sounds like you're saying - replacing a ledger (or the like) with SeedSigner is great, even better would be to set up a multisig wallet.

Why ideally in a multisig? Would it not initially be good to just replace your, say, Ledger wallet with a Seedsigner?

I love this. Great idea.

Question - Regarding the SeedSigner. The concept seems great. I have one that somebody gave me.

What do I need to be worried about when using it?

One more thing. On my main browser, I run an extension called Domain Whitelist. So, instead of blacklisting certain sites, you have to whitelist them. It works pretty well. But one thing you learn is just what an INSANE number of sites you're accessing when you access a regular webpage. For instance, you can't just whitelist gmail.com, there's dozens if not hundreds of accessory sites that are also used, and need to be white listed.

Great question. I have similar issues. I think the key is to make these addictive apps more difficult to access and less convenient, without making them impossible to access. Though I did just delete my podcast app... I would love a launcher app for my phone that would replace my (android) home screen. It would give easy access to a few select applications, that I choose. For instance, phone, calendar, etc. It would also allow me to open other apps that I want to limit (say a browswer, email, social media, etc). But I would only be able to open these apps after a challenge. The challenge would be something tedious like, "solve a 2 digit multiplication problem". The level of tedium could be adjusted. There's a phone app called Slim Launcher that is somewhat similar to this, except it's really easy to circumvent (just click on settings). I've also edited my hosts file to block access to certain websites. I have a trashy slow old unrestricted laptop that I use to access those sites on occasion. Here's a subreddit that https://old.reddit.com/r/nosurf/ that addresses some of these issues. It's a difficult question, for sure. Looking forward to hearing more ideas.

Somehow, can't remember how, I ran into the article (not the book) The Bullish Case For Bitcoin by Vijay Boyapati. That got me very interested, and I then started looking for the best book I could find. Based on some research, I figure that book was The Bitcoin Standard. I read The Bitcoin Standard. That was a revelation, I loved it. Then I went further down the rabbit hole with podcasts and bitcoin twitter. Bitcoiners are my people.

I decided I wasn't going to continue using Paypal after last year, but I'd been using that to pay a tutor (in another country) for music lessons. I tried a few alternatives that were supposed to work in the target country (Revolut and Wise), but my teacher was able to download the app, but was not able to get verified with either system. We were able to make payments work on bitcoin via BlueWallet.

I really enjoyed Nick Szabos "Shelling Out: The Origins of Money"

It's more about the precursors of money, but it's absolutely fascinating. After that was The Bitcoin Standard.

I like it. Thanks. I'm trying to figure out how to make Nostr useful to me again, it's been overwhelmed in the past couple days with new users. Knowing who to follow is good.
