#LNMETA Fucking hell I need to get on Rick to write that AI project for me to automagically adjust fees based on activity. Managing nodes that connect to you, and then start draining liquidity at default rates are becoming a minor annoyance; the script should be able to start cranking fees as it starts seeing more activity on the channels, but, well, this ranch isn't gonna build itself, and Rick becoming a bee-keeper and wildlife manager is becoming time-consuming, so... RTL could use so much work on the UI front. Wish I could select a whole bunch of channels, and set the fee rates on 'em in one go, but, it's either Change All Fees to New Defaults, or hand-management of each channel. I really can't stand it. It's becoming a job and stress. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FKxvPeW0.png&t=665&c=KmmtovFIqXEC9Q) I totally get you. And I think your fees strategy is one way towards a more healthy thing. Another thing is realizing some channels are going to be vampires in one way or another... I have been pruning those channels and leaving the ones that mostly self balance... or choosing not to care. Anyway.. I get the frustration.

At the moment there is about 5.4eh of profitable gear off line. It is going to be liquidated by a major player over the next 90 days.
It represents about 2.5% market increase in hash. It does not take into account what the largest builder of btc gear (bitmain) will produce in the next 90 days.
I estimate that the 200eh we are at will be over 240eh by June 15th. Lets see what it does to prices. Should be fun.

I have opened 4 channels so far, but no-one has opened a channel to me yet, so I have no inbound liquidity. This made me play around with Loop Out. I'm sorry if my actions are considered bad node etiquette, I'm still learning.

75% of Canada approves of what the Trudeau administration is doing? God, I hope not.
Most Canadians do not approve of invoking the Emergency Act. Most I've talked to think they went too far. That's good to hear. Because it is worse than going too far, in my opinion it is a horrifying precedent. 75% of Canadians think the idiot truckers should go home.
They made their point. Sure they had some public sympathy at the start when it was still a peaceful protest. After they disrupted a major city making thousands of people's lives miserable, then blocked international trade costing billions of dollars, support quickly dwindled.
Once you've gotten the message (or given it), hang up the phone.
This, however is a place you and I will disagree. I do not think there is any evidence that they have been heard. Trudeau has seemed to ignore them entirely. Calling them fringe extremists, white supremacists, confederates (lol?) etc. There has been no dialogue, so there is no reason for the protesters to believe they have been heard. But ultimately I think it is even more than that. I think ultimately they are standing for more than just repealing mandates. They are there to stand against the tyrannical government that is exemplified by Trudeau's actions. Declaring Martial Law (which is what the Emergency Act is) and planning to seize money without court orders, and shut down protesters forcibly. So, since we disagree, I will not belabor my point as I have no desire to argue. But here is the ultimate litmus test on whether my opinion is justified, or should be filed under the "shut up and go back to Texas" category. I believe this is all part of an organized plan that transcends just Canada (or New Zealand). We are seeing a coordinated effort to destroy western democracies and place most of the world under a "New World Order". I know you are old enough (like me) to recognize that lingo. Daddy Bush used to say it a LOT. Well, it's the same plan. But they are calling it different things now. "The Great Reset" for example. Or maybe you might recognize the marketing slogan (which is clearly on the way out): The term "build back better" was first introduced to UN at the United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) in July 2005 by former United States President Bill Clinton, the Secretary-General's Special Envoy for Tsunami Recovery. -from wikipedia somewhere... They are restricting our movement, our money, our speech, and most of the other rights we Americans like to cite as "inalienable rights". One last question before I bow and walk backwards out of the room... How did they know we would have to "build back" from anything?

There is (was?) large leverage in the system (if i recall correctly, Lehman was levered at least 30:1, same for others). The destruction (temporary?) of value becomes inevitable at some point. Imagine short term interest rates being 8% (as they should with current inflation number at 7.5%). Quite a few companies would NGMI in this case.

I am also having to do a little maintainence on the node so it will be down to 20m or so.

No. That's not how revolutions work. You don't go home when you are told. You are fighting to make your home a better place due to the tyrants running the place. If you are listening to, and doing the will of the tyrants, you are a part of the problem. Have my last merit ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif)

Good one (ran out of merits again), and it's not just WW3, thinking about nuclear war. I grew up during the cold war, so had to do a lot of ABC (Atomic, Biological, Chemical) training, most likely know more than the younger generations, perhaps too much to feel comfortable right now. For those who think nuclear war can be "won", or have no idea about the difference between 15 kiloton (Hiroshima, Nagasaki) and >50 megaton (modern) yield. I present to you one of the worst ideas ever implemented in human history: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutual_assured_destructionThis literally is MAD.
