You'd have to define funding and all that but I'm sure there are rough numbers. Either way, I see no reason to give them a dime. But to be clear I mean in defense terms. I don't necessarily think the federal government should give states anything (especially since it's coming from state citizens anyway, or debt), but I do think military defense is a duty.
If Israel needs us for defense, we should make it a state and run it. If not, cool. Fuck off. And this goes for every country we send aid to.

I typically go with whatever the app maker recommends. RPM is common. Flatpaks are common. AppImage is less common. Sometimes you get a tarball but that is way less common than it used to be. Flathub (as a flatpak source) has gotten a lot better, but I like to make sure a Dev is the one who actually posted software there or it was done by a trustworthy group. Of course there's some trust there. Can't escape that.
Building from source is probably the safest route but it is more time consuming.

I think the point people should take home is that if you're going to do it, don't assume 50% LTV is good enough. You better be prepared to lose the sats or go a lot higher on the collateral. And you could lose it all anyway. Risk management is key, and I don't think most people should do it. Especially if you have provable fiat income and the loan is for something like a car or house. Just let those things be the collateral in that case.

2026-02-06 12:02:32 UTC

- reply

Strike gives you a warning at 60, margin at 70, and liquidates enough to get the LTV back down.
But if it all happens too fast for you to respond you're fucked.

Having experimented with one around 100k (lol), I agree. The stress isn't worth it and you never really know where the top and bottom are. I figured we were close to the bottom when I did it. Fortunately I went in with a plan and limits. But I could easily have been rekt if I didn't way over plan. Like stupidly over planned (or so I thought).
I probably won't do it again. It isn't worth the energy for me. I don't like babysitting my finances.

But obviously there was enough data for me, hence the reason I went all in. The market ultimately decides this stuff, good fundamentals or not.

2026-02-06 01:33:12 UTC

Absolutely. For one, enough people have to understand what good fundamentals even are and whether Bitcoin meets that standard. I think that's where we are.

2026-02-06 01:30:19 UTC

- reply

What I think people mean is that Bitcoin isn't a SoV (or at least not a good one) because of it's short term volatility. THAT I think is an attribute of an emerging money.
But that's relative. To someone who paid $1 per 100M sats and held, it's the best there's ever been. I think that's true for everyone long term but who knows.

2026-02-06 01:24:02 UTC

- reply

I agree with you to a degree in the sense that I feel like I'm doing something experimental. My point is that it's arbitrary and relative for any asset. At least in my opinion. I would agree that gold is more "proven" in a time sense.

But I disagree that voluntarily funded government as a concept is wrong. Taxation, yes. The anarchist point of view is naive, in my opinion. Someone will rule. The question for me is who rules and according to which system. War lords or whichever gang has the most might? Or a structured system like a Constitutional republic in the US. I prefer the latter. I simply do not see a scenario where every human on the planet just lives in peaceful anarchy. I don't see rape, murder, theft, etc disappearing if we remove systems of law. People will just form crude governments again, and I suspect many of them would be worse than what we have now.

The cap gains taxes would be the income tax aspect, but that's just another income tax on individuals rather than a corporation. That's part of my point.
I didn't consider a company not paying out all profits to shareholders or owners. But even taxing that still is just a tax on the individuals who actually own that capital.
What I'm saying is that the entire concept of a corporation is one of government. Taxing it in any way is just a tax on the individuals who own it. I think it's a branding thing. Americans don't view companies as the sum of people who own them for some reason.

2026-02-05 23:48:38 UTC

I call them a sales tax at the consumer end. With the assumption that none of the taxes are actually in practice incurred by the business or its owners if they just pass it on to the consumers.

It's probably easier to fool people when you dehumanize business. It's becomes this faceless entity that people are more willing to destroy. It's particularly goofy when their pensions and retirements sit with the same list of companies.

2026-02-05 21:08:51 UTC

I can't figure out how corporate taxes are anything more than an illusion.
A corporation is a collection of individuals, who are each taxed on their respective gains. The concept already breaks down right here, in my opinion. Especially when you consider that many "investors" are people who have exposure for retirement purposes. But let's say investors don't want to eat that tax. Why would they? Wouldn't their next option be to pass it on to consumers somehow? Price increase, quality decrease, etc.
Unless I'm missing something, pretty much every tax is a sales tax disguised as something else to make the average idiot happier to pay more. This includes tariffs. Property taxes are the only other unique type I can think of, and that's because they're perpetual. But ultimately it's a sales tax too for living in that area.
What am I missing?

Yeah it's something I've tried to balance as I've gotten older. You of all people can probably appreciate this, but I have a mental exercise where I pretend I'm a judge. I try to be fair and just when it comes to things like this. But sometimes you do just have to make a quick decision and move on. I have what I call instant strike outs that help with this.
