Peter Thiel..on gerontocracy aka Buffett, etc.

I like the term, but I still don't know if it is worth it to use the fighting words..or simply absorb all assets in bitcoin...mostly silently.

OT..a depressing read. Feeling unhappy about the long term meaning of it.
Hoped that once COVID is past (at least from the collective conscience), brighter future might ensue...and now this.
Not sure what is the place of bitcoin in potentially decade(s) long struggle.

TL;DR it might not stay only in Ukraine..and Russia will become linked to China as a minor partner/satellite.

We might be seeing the beginning of the end of the old imperial style Russia now, change can come about very quickly when the foundations start to crumble.

There's just a small problem i see:
Putin grew powerful in the shadow of the fall of the Sovjet Union. He, among many others in his back, experienced the fade of the SU as unjustified and cruel, and now it's perfectly reasonable that he (believes) is fighting for a good thing, the reestablishment of the good, old Union. Golden times will come again (and so on)...

Now imagine Russia under Putin ending as an imperial force, all the people under sanctions and poverty, without future visions, a whole nation in misery, just like North Korea, but on a higher scale. A nation's young generation, growing up under grief, with no future, because of the "bad western nazi imperium".
These times might create much more dangerous dictators than Putin.
And don't let us forget about China! Can Europe afford to lose Russia, as the "whore of Bejing"? I don't think so.

Imho, if Putin's regime finally fallls, Europe and the EU should embrace Russia as a part of europe, tear down ideological walls, bring more evenly distributed wealth to the country. As unrealistic as it might seem, it's the only long term solution to the Eurasian conflict. Of course, the EU has to adress their problems with corruption and become a way more serious government than they tried to put up so far. Otherwise the EU will start to crumble. That's why i think Russia should not be isolated after Putins regime ends. Otherwise when will they recover and start another war? 2030-2040?

Interesting opinion, but most likely not a majority one.
I am actually amazed that there might be a meet in Turkey.
I thought it would continue for longer but, hopefully, not.

If bitcoin gets into million(s) and most of WO regulars are still around, i think the best bang for the money would be to seek life extension procedures.

More years = more chances to develop Alzheimer's.

No thanks.


They really need to solve that one first.

You don't need to fight Alzheimer's if it never develops.
In other words-organs and tissues that are rejuvenated (less age functionally than the clock shows) are less prone to disease.
Aging is a fundamental condition, Alzheimer's is a consequence of an aged brain tissue (typically).

When I was talking about fighting aging, I was not talking about being 80 perpetually. That would be nonsensical.
How about 40 or even earlier?

Its feasible for a 20 year old rich person to age slower. and I would say it is worthwhile.

But at 65 I am looking to age backwards not slower.


Of course, but this is what would make such potential treatment insanely valuable.

As far as bitcoin is concerned, I am a bit alarmed that M. Saylor keeps getting deeper in debt to buy bitcoin.
He should have done it earlier, imho.
Leverage would make his ownership more tenuous and potentially prone to margin calls at the inopportune time.

Extension already exists. But it is costly and not very moral.

your filters wear out.

Ie kidneys are in the 70% range for a very healthy 65 year old.

Dialysis  extends your system quite well. Fairly cheap.

So what do our mad scientists do. Splice your dna into a pigs kidneys and create perfect transplant organs.

Not too nice for the pig but better than someone grabbing people of the street and tossing him into a meat grinder once you grabbed the good organs.

So a rich guy could replace kidneys at 20 40 60 and so on.

Would work well if you have the coins to pay. You can donate the bacon 🥓 leftover to the poor.

you are talking about this, right?

Interesting, but in 10 years, well, it is a long time.

This (more healthy time) is major, everything else could be secondary.

I am not privy to all current efforts, but there are many "serious" people involved.
Big money is being spent on the best and brightest toward these goals (attacking the longevity problem from the multiple angles).
I am not sure if there is some kind of hard barrier that we cannot break through, but if it is a purely biological/engineering problem, then I don't think that you can call it insurmountable.
Mind you, Musk is firmly against life extension because he believes that it would cause less societal progress.

I don't have links handy, but there was a lot of recruitment in life-extension area by at least a couple of companies and/or foundations.
The main problem would probably be tissue re-vitalization without carcinogenicity.
Apart from helping the loved ones, personally, I see no goal more interesting than this.
It is entirely possible that initial treatments would be VERY expensive and hush-hush as you cannot dangle longevity in front of "regular" people, but then say that it is not affordable, unless you have a multitude of $ seven or even eight digit accounts. All kinds of problems may ensue. Will the society then split into "ancients" and "normals"? Very well may be.

The f-bomb tirade was way out of line.  A jackass putting his anger management issues on display.
Albeit, Will is now gonna get that hummerjob he'd been begging for, for the past week....

Fake ass staged event for the dumb masses is fake af

That’s your opinion bro. I don’t think it was staged. That’s my opinion. I guess I must be a member
of the “dumb masses”


Yeah, I mean it makes total sense that as Chris Rock watches Will S. approach him on the stage, he grins a shit eating grin at him, puts his hands behind his back, and stands perfectly still...waiting for him. /s   Chris even leans his head in, as if to give Will S. a better target. Roll Eyes

Open your eyes, dude. It was all a staged publicity stunt. They planned that backstage. The Oscars are dying. Roll Eyes

I did open my eyes and watched, including Will’s f-bomb outburst, and I stand by my opinion that it wasn’t
staged. You may want to read up on the circumstances and aftermath.
Let’s just agree to disagree as we obviously see the world through different lenses.

Not a stunt..and pretty pathetic, actually.
Even in my middle school it was considered to be uncool for a bigger boy to slap a clearly smaller one.
When the latter happened (infrequently), boys, who were even bigger, acted as the 'justice league' and pummel the offender to 'even the score' (and sometime later everyone fought, lol).
I wish Shaq or LeBron would bitchslap pathetic Will Smith (unless it was all staged-less than 10% probability, imho).
Can someone be C. Rocks' champion? Obviously there were none among the Academy.
The "King" slapped the "Jester", right?

Russia's deadline for unfriendly countries to pay in rubles coming on Monday. More drama in the fiat world, i see a lot of people panicking about inflation, food shortages etc... But oddly i'm somehow at peace, wondering why that might be  Grin


Not going to happen, imho.
They were saying that they would pay bonds in rubles too, then paid in $ and euro.

I am not sure why their contracts stipulated ONLY $ and euros, apparently, but they are valid contract nevertheless.
You can't just ask to be paid in rubles when the contract says: euros (for example).
There might be willing intermediaries, though (for the low low 5% or something).

Saylor live. Nothing new so far, but hearing him speak about BTC is exciting, as always.

Is this a real video ? or fake ? i saw similar video with mr. Saylor on some other hacked youtube channel
not claiming mr Saylor hacked someone, but i though some people used his video and added the shit with "send x, get double x back"
i am really suprised to see such thing (send x, get 2x back) being promoted here, by person with more then 1000 post

hm

the talk looks real, all the other stuff is layered on, which should be illegal.

During Chinese Warring States period, a man named Chuang-tzu had a dream that he was a butterfly flying from flower to flower, feeling free, blown about by the breeze.
Upon waking, he wondered, “Am I a man, dreaming I am a butterfly; or a butterfly, dreaming I am a man?”

Dreams often do not mean anything and when they do, we usually cannot immediately discern the meaning.

Contrary to prior bitcoin "species" classifications...in 2022, 616 btc tx makes you a 'whale'...probably 60 btc in 2025, then 6 in 2030-35.
