Honestly, I feel for you. I'm not gonna get into specifics here but there's better ways. I've been known to be somewhat self destructive to put it mildly. I'm probably not gonna be able to tell you something that would make a difference for you, even if we were best friends. You're not alone man and probably don't fuck up as much as you think.

Too bad about the chicken, fuck em. Family can be poison, fuck em.

Use that money to make your life better.

Something something insert life changing fantastic advice here.

Everybody's suggesting some great bbq sauce, I say come join us on the rock bottom!

LoL, I thought he was promoting communism. 😅

I'm afraid that for a place like Iceland this does not mean warm and sunny, but more extremes in weather.

The number of extreme storms are increasing :

I believe it's here.

I've found that ChatGPT4 is an excellent tutor and can create a good learning plan based on your specific level, almost any subject (including English).

Often you can explain stuff in your native language to it, if you don't know the English word for it. 🙂

We'll so far it's been quite US centric so far, but I feel he has some solid arguments for most of his points. What's been intriguing to me is his economic history. It's presented in an engaging way.

Absolutely agree!

I'm currently midway trough Peter Zeihans The End of the World Is Just the Beginning and just started Yuval Noah Hararis Homo Deus: A History of Tomorrow, he even cites a statistics which is that more people die from obesity than starvation each year, so we have that going for us. So far these two books are a nice contrast. I'm painfully aware of our currently novel situation and hoping things are gonna keep heading in the right direction. Actually would really want them to, trying my best to make them: https://sturlabragason.github.io/blog/2023/07/04/Decentralized-Autonomous-Communities.html

The possibility that things might one day get better for humankind. We're long overdue.

I don't think he is talking about importing it. 😅

You're not allowed to for a bunch of stuff anyway.

I'm suggesting a gradual shift towards a society that would have time to do exactly this ❤️

Yeah I agree with, the essence is how the technology is used. There exist currently better ways technologically to achieve this. My point isn't entirely to change decision making by making the data available to the public. Every modern politician and is absolutely shameless and hides in plain sight so any exposure wouldn't do a damn thing.

I am more about using algocracy to replace as much as we can of government and decision making, continually improving the process and then conviction voting as another layer.

Can you expand on your answer? Why do you say that using blockchain (and I mean blockchain and not cryptocurrency) would be no good?

Also I love the colorful imagery of "fertilizing your garden with powdered uranium" 😄

I had Midjourney draw it up for us:
