0 sats \ 0 replies \ @alevu 21 Apr \ on: Sunday Survey: What were you doing at halving block 840,000? bitcoin
I was at a comedy show with gf, unable to watch mempool.space at the exact moment block 840 000 was mined :(
Indirect quote, cannot find any direct quote of Hanna Nohynek, which is mentionned everywhere in that article as THE smoking gun.
I can't find any quote of that person that "Covid mRNA shots were ineffective but still pushed for the general public to be pressured into taking the experimental injections"
Neither for this one :
"However, Nohynek says she was ignored, despite explaining that the Covid vaccines were essentially “fake” because they did not stop virus transmission."
This is not journalism, this is just conspiracy nut jobs spreading misinformation.
It's sad that peoples that seems smart don't challenge what they read.
No source, no context, no conclusion and posted by someone who did not record the video.
That's a bait.
All of them are construct if you really want to go that way.
I don't have a place in mind without strong institution that have sufficient infrastructure to develop the economy. Government is just the mechanism how we find compromise between public and private interest. Does not mean the mechanism cannot be changed.
We can also see what happen when the institution fail in country like Haiti.
Are you more free if you are in a place without strong institution to ensure infrastructure and basic services for everyone ?
If you are financially well off and can develop your own infrastructure and pay for the services you need maybe. But you still most likely rely on existing infrastructure and require workers to be healthy and educated.
Not sure this would be an improvement for the happiness of most peoples if you have freedom but no opportunities.
I have to admin that I heard more about his rhetorics like the Justinflation or the foreign probe than his view on bitcoin or finances. Thanks for taking the time :)
Genuine question, what's appealing to him ? Seeing him talking in the parliament didn't gave me a super good vibe about him
Really cool concept, I get a invalid bolt11: Bad bech32 string when scanning the withdrawal link, but otherwise really nice idea !
EDIT: Nevermind, tried with Alby instead of Zeus, and Alby could successfully withdraw the sats.
The Mandibles is a compelling novel that explores the devastating impact of economic collapse on a single family, revealing the stark realities of a world in which the economy has completely collapsed. Lionel Shriver, the author of the book, skillfully portrays the struggles and triumphs of the Mandible family as they adapt to a new reality in which the luxuries and conveniences they once took for granted no longer exist.
The story begins in the year 2029, at the 97th birthday party of Enola Mandible, the matriarch of the family. The Mandibles are a formerly wealthy family from Brooklyn, consisting of three generations: Enola, her son Douglas, his children Florence and Carter, Douglas's second wife Luella, and their children Avery and Savannah. As the party progresses, the family learns that the U.S. government has defaulted on its debt, sending the economy into a downward spiral.
Shriver masterfully depicts the economic collapse, painting a vivid picture of a world in which the dollar is devalued, inflation skyrockets, and the country is plunged into an economic depression that makes the Great Depression of the 1930s seem like a minor blip. The government is unable to provide basic services, healthcare and education are non-existent, and crime rates soar. The Mandibles are forced to rely on each other and their own resourcefulness to survive, growing food in their backyards, bartering for goods and services, and even resorting to stealing and scavenging.
As the years go by, the Mandibles confront their own mortality and the fragility of their relationships. The economic collapse takes a heavy toll on the family, forcing them to sell their possessions, move out of their homes, and downsize their lifestyles. Avery, the youngest member of the family, dies of an infection that could have been easily treated in a normal economy, while Florence and her husband Esteban lose their jobs and are forced to move in with her parents. Carter, who had been a successful novelist, is unable to get his books published in a market that no longer values literature.
Despite their hardships, the Mandibles remain resilient, determined to survive in a world that has been turned upside down. However, as the novel comes to a close, the family is forced to confront the possibility that the economic collapse may be permanent. The world they once knew is gone, and they must learn to adapt to a new reality.
Shriver's novel is a cautionary tale about the dangers of economic inequality and the need for societies to build resilience in the face of uncertainty. The Mandibles is a powerful and thought-provoking book, and Shriver's masterful writing transports the reader into a world that is at once familiar and terrifying. The Mandibles is a must-read for anyone interested in economics, politics, or social issues, and it is sure to leave a lasting impression on all who read it.
