  I see. Thanks. Lately I’ve started to realize just how expensive health and education are in the us.

  I went to see a neurologist and paid 0 cents My brother is considering a biology PhD and he’s broke. A 3 bedroom house costs like 60k usd

  Oh. I hadn’t read it like that. I thought the brother was a hypocrite because if he has a PhD he SHOULD be able to pay his debts and get a hose (I’m not from the us so I’m guessing that part) but I stead seems to not ba able to manage his own money while criticizing OP

  It is not. Nostr is based on public key cryptography. A lot of features are linked with a layber on top of bitcoin (lightning, which by my understanding makes absolutely no sense), but its nowhere near required

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨coping⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve been an ass to assholes on nostr and would t want that linked up to my Lemmy account. So if you want someone to interact with or test things, I can generate a new account

  Join nostr. Is a decentralized social network where no one can stop you from saying what ever you want.

  I’ve not seen any kind of porn (adult or child). No gore.

  What you do get is all the anarchist liberals, trump supporters, homophobes, racists, and AY TO MANY conversations about bitcoin (I recommend adding a filter to remove any posts that mention bitcoin just to actually find something different)

  Yes. But there is nothing we can do about it more than party that whenever it turns to shit their open source contributions are able to stand on their own

  Bitcoin hasn’t made much progress. There are some layers on top of it that let you send instantly and cheaply, but they are at best impractical (for lightning, of you want to be able to receive money you have to create a channel with a “server” node and them spend bitcoin which buy you liquidity to receive money. Utterly worthless)

  The two I have my sights right now are monero and ltc. Both of those let you send pretty fast and with less than a cent fee

  There is a tech that is called proof of stake that means that mining is waaaay more energy efficient but none of those are implementing it. I’ve heard it has drawbacks but I’m not sure I understand them

  Also momero is mined in a way that buying GPUs or ASIC (mining specialized hardware) is not worth it. You get better results on a CPU, making mining more accessible for everyone

  Both of those have confidential transactions so no one know who sends who how much money nor how much money each part has. Which is pretty cool

  Not to that extent, but crypto. I think its an amazing and really interesting technology. But now it’s tainted by scammers and when people hear the term, they get defensive because they are ready for you to scam them

  You would still be interrupted as soon as you said “my last name is”

  The beauty is that you can make the mental gymnastics to make it work both ways.

  If they are opposite, the magnet attracts the car which moves the magnet away creating infinite motion

  If they are the same, the magnet is repelled by the car, moving it away, moving the car forward creating infinite motion

  You can even do mental tricks to make the contraption go backwards: Opposites: car attacks magnet which moves the car backwards Same: magnet reppels the car which moves the contraption backwards

  Beeds to be smaller. That is just empty space that need to be cleaned. Also it being so large seems like it would be cold on lonely winter nights
