All right, I'm feeling like doing a stream today I'm kind of taking the day off, but I will say that the what I want to accomplish next week This is what I want to do I've talked a long time about starting a webbering So what I don't know people probably don't even know what a webbering. I don't know Maybe if you watch my channel, you know what a webbering is Because we talk about it on live streams every once in a while, but I really want to you know I've been complaining all the time about how sucky Search engines are nowadays, right? So I mean we have a couple problems with the modern internet, right?  Oh, how do I fix? Oh Like actually a problem that I'm having right now. I got to replace my head gasket, which I'm not gonna do I'm gonna get a mechanic to do it because it's a little involved If you want to look up something car related online What are you gonna get you're gonna get a bunch of AI generated sites that are just randomly taking text and they're just putting them in a Website like oh, this is the kind of stuff that people search for right if you I mean even this this week Okay, let me talk about how annoying it is I'm actually using void Linux right now and the reason is someone I'm gonna talk about this in a video Well, when I feel like I can review it But someone actually sent me one of the guys who works on Libreboot sent me a think pad right a Librebooted think pad Which was very nice it had void Linux on it So I've been figuring some things out with void Linux So occasionally I'll look something up like how do I do this that or the other on void and Nowadays all you get is AI generated sites where it's like oh What is void Linux void Linux is it like takes the first paragraph of Wikipedia and then it like creates another section It's just like word association. That is all the internet is nowadays. So what we need is a way of Taking sites that are made by humans and putting them together right and so that's what a web ring is So what a web ring is back in the 90s before search engines, okay? They had you know, you you didn't have search engines So what you do is you link to every one site that you liked right and you join a web ring Where it's basically just a ring of different sites like let's say there are a hundred different sites in the ring And each one of them at the bottom of their page will have a link. Oh go to the next site go to the previous site in the in the ring So Anyway, that's something I want to think about next week next week. I want to make a video on that I've actually already forked some software that does it and I've been getting it working with my software But and I also kind of want to do you know what I really should do some Hugo tutorials Yeah, that's what I need to do next week as well So I need to do Hugo tutorials first and then I'll do the web ring thing as well because you know I'll have a little plug-in or a little shortcode thing that'll add my you know If you join the web ring you can use so the idea there is It is you know people can make contentful sites You know you can have personal sites with your own personal stuff on it And I'm not just talking about the thing that sucky about personal sites nowadays is that it's basically just a link to some Idiots github. That's your average like Soydev personal website like they don't put anything on them It used to be people would have it. Oh, this is all the stuff I've I've like written and done and all this like more interesting stuff We need to get that we need to get back to that kind of stuff Anyway, the onus is on me to do it because I know that you know if I if I tell people to do this that or the other There will be a segment of people who will do that right and that's not necessarily because you're stupid followers In fact, usually it's the smarter ones that do that because they're like, oh, I want to you know I want to figure stuff out right So anyway, yeah, that's what I think I'll do next week. Those are kind of the plans So my donation portal my normal donation portal is broken or like I basically quit it I don't know if I want to go back to it. You can still donate XMR. That should work And it should give a super chat Chris says I'm going to see Curtis Yavin in New York City today. Oh, that's interesting. Does he like do come public events now? I don't know So I actually saw this week I haven't been working on that much been mostly well, I've had some things to do IRL But when I've actually watched more YouTube In like videos on the internet this week that I haven't a long time and I actually saw a recent apparently like Curtis Yavin aka mentions bull bull bug Did like an event with like Louis Rossman of all people and it was freaking one of the funniest things I've seen in my life Because it's like it was like it was like Curtis Yavin and then like four other dudes like basically normie Political dudes, you know, one was like kind of libertarian I mean basically normies and like Curtis is just like running circles intellectually around all these guys It was I think it was framed as a debate I'm not quite sure but it was really just here is like mold bug saying his typical spiel And like these normies like trying to keep up intellectually and it's just it was one of the funniest things I wait, you know one thing I think one thing that tells you a whole lot Gain on the mic is too high. Oh, yeah, it probably is actually No, I actually my Volume on this thing is too high. Let me turn this down a little bit. Okay. Yeah, so Yeah, what one one thing that is Was I gonna say yeah one thing I really like That tells you a lot about people and this this is gonna sound like kind of a weird almost psychopathic thing to say But like I mean it unironically it actually tells you a lot about a person like when you see someone in When you when they're in a position of being flustered like when you when you put them in an awkward situation That actually tells you a lot about the kind of stuff that you know the kind of person that they are right So I found it interesting just to see these people like engaging with Mold bug because he was like just on a different level. I thought I thought it was really funny I just to see how people respond and they were all like I don't know It's not they didn't really say anything interesting. It wasn't actually worth watching, but it was just kind of funny Yeah, so like the last part of that was kind of funny Someone said something about this the XMR super chat thing working. I mean it should be I haven't changed it since Let me check the logs on the server. See if there's anything weird. I mean it should be working right now if someone has donated on the XMR thing and you haven't had a donation go through just tell me and Yeah, you just email me Don't say it in the chat. Just email me or you can say it in the chat, but like I'm less likely to see that But yeah, the XMR thing should be working. Let me just let me just Let's see if the see if the alert thing is working. Okay. Yeah, so the alert is working. That's just the test If someone else problems with it, tell me so Zach says hello Luke. I met you at Linux West with my temple. Oh, sir. Yeah, I remember you having that.  That was pretty funny like I woke up the other day and I just had all these comments on this video for like three years ago that I recorded at the Georgia guide stones and it's just like Normie's rejoicing it like they're there is this demographic of people. I don't know if they're all AI people I don't know if they exist in real life, but like barely literate boomers just like Clumsy conspiracy boomers. We're not talking about anyone's that have like hot takes on anything I'm just talking about like they're just in every conspiracy. It doesn't matter what it is That that I think is anyway this kind of people like I got a whole bunch of comments from them all of a sudden on this Old video apparently like someone blew up the Georgia guide stones, which is pretty funny Trying to think what else so in other well, I don't talk about that Okay, so I Don't know so when I do tutorials on go. I'm gonna start basically from a I don't know Start from the bare minimum, you don't have to know anything and go from there So if anyone has any specific I mean the nice thing about go that I like about it and I'll talk about it in the video So I don't like burn through Content here or whatever is that it's it's a nice combination and this is true of other static site generators You know so a lot of you know the thing is if you say X good thing about one thing online everyone else will I don't know just assume you had everything else But I like go because or if you go because it's written and go and the thing is it has all the benefits of like a really minimalistic Static site generator, but you can also add this kind of script ability to it, which is pretty nice David says There's conspiracy boomers live in the zero-hedge comment section. I've never actually checked the zero-hedge comments I don't actually read zero-hedge that much unless I'm directed to it. I don't really read any news I basically have not read any news since like regularly since I Want to say 2012 is around the time I stopped that like the last thing I used to read Which I was like, oh, this is like the one okay periodical was the economist Now I look back at that and I was like, oh my goodness. They were just as bad The thing is like if in in I guess the social strata that I was in at that period You know, I was kind of like a very normie like I don't know how to describe it like there's not a good word for it, but it's basically the Aspirational opinion molding class like oh, you know, I'm gonna be you know I was living in the city like I was doing a degree in economics and you know like basically my smart takes was like Oh, I'm like slightly libertarian compared to everyone else, right?  We use it for work and it's awesome. Yeah, it is nice and the other thing about it is there are There are ways I think you can set up that I saw a guy who You can check him up. Well, he's nearly certainly a subscriber of mine.  He'll probably come up He'll have like chads in the thumbnail or whatever But I think he also did a video. I'm gonna feel bad. I'm gonna look it up I'm gonna the least I could do this guy's like look up his name Because I did like I did like his videos But he did one on like you can set up a CMS for go like a content management system Which is basically you can set that up with like a normie like set up a website for a normie And they don't even have to use like the command line or mark down or scary things like that to make their website You can like give them this kind of graphical front-end Let me see this. I don't find that guys name because these videos were pretty useful Someone might be just like saying it in the comment section Yeah, I don't know why can I not find it now. I'm like looking for all this good Hugo stuff Oh Eric Murphy is his name. Yeah, so he made some good tutorials So you guys can check him He had three or four that are on Hugo Which I found I found helpful because it's like my style of tutorial where it's like actually explaining things like Explaining how to do things as opposed to like reading the Wikipedia page, which is you know, anyway I'm working at the World Trade Center from 3,000 a month from a 3,000 a month pod am I a cock? You basically answered that yourself. I don't know what you do. I hope you're making a million dollars a month So let's see Yeah, I don't know Let me check the X more thing. I'm a little worried that no one is a That the X more thing is not working. I should probably like go there myself. I would send myself money I don't have any Hot wallets as they say right now, let's see test See if this site is broken or something Okay, whatever. I'll figure it out later. I'll figure it out later I guess I haven't I think I've made a change since last year it might be broken But I can deal without getting XMR for I don't know Eric Murphy Eric Murphy is his name How do you find friends? Do you care if they are based or normie spelled normie with a Y? That's kind of normie What do you mean how you find you just go out there and high friend have fine friends or whatever? Do you care if you're like people are not based based like that is not a real thing like I don't I don't I don't know like people people are freaking weird the other one thing is You know they take these concepts on the internet and they try to put them in a real life And they realize how unactionable they are, you know what I mean? The same thing true is true one thing that I've noticed and I should like call people out in a video about this But I'll probably get a bunch of see-thers one thing if I in a video mention Women in any way shape or form like in the last I did a video last week where I talked about Oh when you get married do blah blah blah this or like, you know You want to have property for your children or something like that and they're they're the usual suspects in the comments section saying like There are these people out there. I don't even understand I Don't know. I don't know like that psychology. I'm not just talking about like when talking about women I'm talking about like we're like people have an excuse. Here's my actual diagnosis. Here's my psycho analysis, right? I'm gonna psychoanalyze all these people not just about women, but about everything else, right? There's this certain type of internet person, okay? and what they do is they have Like their view of the world is like basically they are sitting on their computer doing nothing Okay, you know what I mean and they're not accomplishing anything. They know they don't have a job They don't want to have a job these are the kind of people when I did those videos last week about oh, you know You should try to be self-employed. They would always make excuses.  You know what I mean? It's like oh, it's they're not really Um, I don't know it's hard to explain. It's the same thing with women So like guys who desperately want women, okay?  Oh, let me tell you about how I feel about women and then they have this whole idea that oh Yeah, I don't care. I don't care about them. You know what I mean?     It's about everything There's some people who like They're in if you follow their advice and if you take them seriously the greatest thing You could possibly achieve is complaining about things on the internet like that is what these people basically are saying, right? How did my question lead to women and migtail raffle? Yeah, I don't know oh You asked about like finding friends or something like that I think yeah, but I will say on that like I don't I don't know How that led to that? I think the thing I kind of think how Nietzsche writes. That's the only way Like the things I say are very related, but like I don't spell out the way that they're related in my head You know what I mean? Black pill people. Yeah, sore losers. Yeah Autistic bro bug man.  Yeah, that's good.  That's the big difference between I mean really we're talking about like a kind of a 4chan audience Like not not all people on 4chan like are like that, but I think like the most aggressive ones That there are they're like these militant losers. It's like they have to You know and they're very loud wherever they are So it feels like they're a bigger portion of the population than they think but like they're not Is Vim dead with the new update, I don't know what the new update is I think I saw an XMR donation came in. Okay, mr. Based Sinsen some XMR. Okay, so the XMR thing is working. You can't donate Monero. It's not broken I'm getting yeah, whatever getting the messages. Do you think the Rogers network Internet and phones being down is a foreign attack on Canada Communists are complaining that monopolization caught caused this I Don't know anything about what's going on in Canada It's pretty funny if that is the case, but yeah, I honestly just have no clue um Simone duh sins like a dollar dollar $2 says Sorry, you got cucked with the conferences audio bet they were running pottering well Oh, yeah, I haven't even publicly complained about that so earlier in the year I went to Minerotopia and it was like literally their first time Putting on a conference and it was a great conference. It went went really well But then the recordings came came out and they were you know, it's again It's their first time doing the conference, but it's like, you know, they were kind of messy Like I think they said their AVI like missed this plane And they had to make things up like in the in the in the day of or something like that Which is fine, but they got you know, they got the conference folks out there and it was all good, right? But then I go to Linux Fests, which has been Linux Fests has been Has been in existence for like ten years or something more than that and they released my talk The other day now firstly the first time I went there. They screwed it up like they like didn't record like They couldn't record for my screen because they didn't have like adapters and stuff now They didn't have adapters this time, but they released my talk without any audio whatsoever They just didn't record anything which I did. I literally was carrying a microphone So that was very disappointing now that does mean that what I'm probably gonna want to do I I should have done this in the past week, but now maybe I'll find some time for it next week I should just go through my talk from Linux Fests and Represent it actually the same thing I did with Monerotopia except for it was less necessary here because I did actually, you know, basically Yeah, what I did I gave like a a kind of shell script Illustration of like how proof-of-work actually works like how you can do it like basically in your own home and stuff like that And just some just some little things to get people to understand like cryptocurrencies And like why they're important in the world of free software That said most of people I talked to afterward like there were a lot of people asking questions You know a lot of good questions like we had questions for like I think mine was like the only talk that I saw that was like longer than the That was that like actually filled up the whole time because like I don't know well I did also like a little arrived like a minute late, but you know, that doesn't count So there's a lot to say there are a lot of people who are interested, but we honestly afterwards we just talked about other stuff not really relevant cryptocurrency All right, so Looks like we got some XMR stuff great. I heck and love Monero. I actually at Linux Fests I was worried I I'd wiped a computer before I left and like I was worried I like accidentally deleted my Private key for like my shadow chat like the XMR donation site was like oh my goodness that I accidentally delete that which no I didn't so it would have only been like a loss of like 50 bucks that people had sent me Anyway, so She meets you Since in $3. I don't think there's a message on this But thank you Anonymous Since in some XMR. Do you think you'll ever do a not related episode of Graham Hancock or Atlantis? Yeah, I plan to honestly some of my episodes have kind of been Let's see. Did I cover? Honestly at this point all the not related episodes kind of go to get like they merged together in my mind And they also merged together with stuff. I've already talked about did I do one? I'm like talking about forbidden archaeology and all that kind of stuff Have I done that maybe I was saving that for the Graham Hancock episode I know there have been many times I've like eluded the Graham Hancock stuff I did the thing is about his his stuff is I don't know if it warrants like a full Episode well, maybe it does it's popular stuff But like one thing with not related that I tried to do is that I try to do things that other people aren't talking about Like that's very deliberate. I mean if you look at the episodes, you know by-cameral mind, you know Joseph Schumpeter like that. I'm not quite sure Yeah, I'm sent in some XMR any plans on participating in the next Monero cone Monero, Monero, why did I read it like that Monero cone Monero con or interviews in the new future? I mean, I wasn't out Monero con. I was at you know, Monero topia Monero con Like I think that's nearly always held in Europe and like I'm not gonna travel like I'm not gonna travel that far It was like even hard for me to get to Miami like It was like, you know, they basically have to do it in my backyard to really do I mean if they if Monero topia happens again, and it happens in Miami, I will go Then I don't know they might want to I know it's it's pot Well, I would say they should do it in another city But like I know that Miami is kind of the place for cryptocurrency stuff Like a lot of the people there were kind of conference hopping to different places So, you know, I understand if they want to keep doing it there But yeah, I've no like interviews like the thing is people ask me less about like cryptocurrency in the past month or two I mean, I'm still in I'm still open to doing stuff about it But I think people are less interested because the price is lower, which is ironically this is the time when like it when you're thinking about Financial excuse me financial reasons. This is the time to be interested, right? But yeah, I'm open to it. I'll go to Monero topia next year. If you know If they have it Eric sends in some XMR, thanks for getting me back into Vim and GNU slash Linux Well, thank you for thanks for the XMR and thanks for calling it GNU slash Linux as it properly is So Anonymous since it's an XMR since you and Monero Mateo our buddies when will we see him coming back with Linux installed? Well, I haven't been around. I've only met him once and we've talked a little bit The funny is a funny coincidence, right? Because when I was I don't know. Maybe this is doxing him Maybe I shouldn't say nevermind. I won't say that but we'll just say I don't know. I assume he said that Okay, you can piece this together from things that he said. So it's okay Well, anyway, so I had gone to this this orthodox church in Atlanta Okay to talk to these people about setting up a parish or whatever, which I've spoken about and I got an email from him later And it just so happened that he went there. Okay It like goes there regularly or something like that. So he had contacted me and then I was like, hey The the tail emission day is coming up and I'm gonna be driving through there for Linux fast You want to do something and that's when we did so and yeah We had a thing there a couple guys there most of them were orthodox like You know if you're using Monero like you have to be orthodox that that's a that's a that's true But I haven't been around him enough to like I guess to get him into that kind of stuff now He obviously needs to get into that kind of stuff Like Linux and free software and stuff like that like it's I said this at Monero Topia And I've said it a million times since like it's embarrassing. It's physically embarrassing for me when I see people who are Like nominally. Oh wow, I care so much about like, you know user privacy and freedom And I use like Monero and all this kind of stuff and then they're using Windows and I'm like, what what are you doing, buddy? so it is kind of an unnatural place to be in Okay, Gareesh since in $1 Via Zell, okay, I don't think Zell shows the comments Okay, well, it's it's $1 only okay I should the annoying thing about Zell is well actually Zell is really great as far as like proprietary services go Maybe I should explain what Zell is. I think on my donate page It says you can donate via Zell and Zell is this really nice. It's basically a payment processor like You know stripe or PayPal and stuff for Zell is managed by banks directly So they don't like they just let you transfer money without any kind of fees or anything Which is infinitely better than paper. I wish more people would use Zell but the annoying thing about it is that like there's no like How your you receive money in your bank and your bank in my case the bank account It's going to like they don't give you messages unless you have their stupid mobile app, which obviously I don't have Maybe I should get that if I'm going to do it for lifestreams, but Alex says this is probably very unrelated to everything else being discussed But how do I learn to use CSS to make really good front-ends? Well, so maybe I'm the wrong one to ask well, I'll give you my opinion So like I'm not a big designer like I'm not a big maybe he's asking that this is someone in the comment section I don't know. I just looked in it was it was there I would say One thing I've learned a lot of CSS with like when you have a crazy idea of what kind of things you want to do like the night The way I look at CSS and I said this in a video a while ago Like a lot of people do stupid things with JavaScript because they don't know how to do it with CSS And I think with anything else in computing you have to like have a vision and then you have to think Oh like step-by-step. How do I implement this?  Like how can I simplify things? How can I like I mean it's a good example if you go to bait What is it? No, lanshed.net. Okay, go right now pull up your browser go to lanshed.net Okay Now here's a funny thing about lanshed.net. Maybe I'll show it to you. Let me take that off my you don't need to see that Okay, this is gonna be the most boomer thing in the world once it loads. Okay, so Here is what lanshed.net looks like right now. So you see You have all these like icons and stuff like this right and then you have like lists of you know You got a list of articles and up here. This is really you know So this is a list of services you can click on now syntactically if we go to how do you go to page source? Yeah, so we go to the page source that list or like all these Icons like this right all this stuff Syntactically, this is just a list right CSS is the only thing like you might say oh wow that takes a lot of like I don't know fancy-looking stuff here.  So that's the kind of stuff you got to have a vision So, you know, I just did this like one afternoon right and it's not even fancy-looking like you could make this look way better So like I would just start you know asking.  You got to do the thinking all right so It's gonna flex is no GAS dark theme selector again Wait chart dark theme selector. I don't actually know I Will I will flex any lack of JavaScript or anything of those Well, you know what one of my vices, you know greed of course greed pride. These are all vices One of my ways, you know, one of my vices is not necessarily being greedy about money It's being greedy about how little I spend on things or it's not about greed being greedy about my accomplishments It's being greedy about how efficiently I did or like being prideful about accomplishments. It's being prideful about like You know just the little optimizations You know what I mean?  No, I mean it's it's it's HTML like HTML is It is a list in HTML right you I mean you can look at the page source right now and see what it is Every item is just a list item and you just use CSS to transform that and what oh so I should explain What is the point of doing that? Why don't you just make divs and all this kind of stuff? The reason I don't do that is because if you pull it up in a terminal browser If you pull it up in links or w3m, and it's not like I really care about you know the the five you know terminally autistic people who use links or W3m but just in terms of like oh, it's easier to parse for a script. It's easier. I mean just everything is cleaner I mean it'll work if it works good in terminal browsers now I don't care about terminal browsers, but if it works well in them. That's a good thing okay anonymous says Did boomers really ruin the economy or is it overblown? I wouldn't call I wouldn't say that boomers ruined anything like boomers They got a good yeah people complain about boomer. Oh boomers destroyed everything. No The worst thing I can say about boomers like it is kind of like a spiritual Complacence right so this is the kind of stuff that I've complained about. Oh, yeah, what I called the boomer economy, right? so it was this period around you know the Second World War and afterwards where Like the norm became just to get a job with a company, right? Because it was easy because it's it's it's an easy thing to do You don't have to you don't have to have initiative You don't have to like be responsible for your own stuff like there are benefits for all that kind of stuff You know what I mean? But the thing is and the benefits paid off right boomers have lived affluent lives Right, but the thing is now we are dealing with the issues, right? So now people are so mind-cucked by having jobs all the time like working, you know being a good Corporate employee and stuff like that. They've lost like traditional skills like these kind of things like all these little things that like if you Complained about 50 years ago.  It's this is the way of the future, right? You know people just took the path of least resistance and I can't really fault them for doing that because I think most people still will But you know I don't think that I don't think there's any generation that's especially at fault for anything like people mostly Like yeah, well you really got to look at it in terms of like who is the normie like who is the like MPC people of each generation? Who's just going along with the program? Oh, this is like most convenient like you know If you want to blame someone blame people like that, but I wouldn't I wouldn't single out the boomer generation for your contempt at all Boomers are very entitled says ghost of dry. Yeah, but everyone is entitled like Millennials are entitled Generation Z is entitled Generation X which no one talks about is entitled like everyone is entitled. I mean it's the same thing It's the same It's it's one of those things that you see in everyone else, but you never see in yourself like that I don't know any plans for any hermetic texts on Lindy press.net. I will probably release the alchemy reader But like the thing is I don't I don't know if I'll release the hermetic corpus. I'm just gonna keep that to myself Like I'm not a big fan. I mean I Thought about it, but I don't really want to commercialize and like popularize like kind of pagan fellow philosophical works Like you know, I think weirdly enough the hermetic corpus was instrumental in me returning to Christianity, right?  Did Lulu mark those? Yeah, maybe they did.   Tell me about how Let me state my case. Okay. Here's what actually happened And I thought about posting a blog post about this because I think it's important so I'm a firm proponent of You know intellectual property is absolutely fake. Okay, it's not a real thing and it's illegitimate to complain about Okay, like there's no such like there's no sense in which You know like anyway, I'm not gonna believe at this point.   I mean in this isn't like benefiting you you're not making money off of this And it's not like I'm gonna be making some significant amount of money off of that either it like it's part of a compilation Like no one cares about maybe someone cares about this one particular work But a lot of people do that and it's just annoying so like my question for if anyone knows anything about like an American IP law Is that actual Actually a legitimate claim of his because it's not the work is in the public domain the translation is in the public domain But he's tried to you know put a copyright on a transcription Does that actually count? Is that like legitimately a new work? I don't know. I don't know how it works now if it isn't I You know, I'm just gonna be able to print it. Wow, that's great Okay And I was gonna say something else Starting a business and selling to boomers is once up of a above complaining about boomers teaching boomers to use Monero and Bitcoin cash, too Yeah, what was I gonna say about IP? Yeah, it's just so like as more time has gone on, you know, obviously all the software I put out I put out in the GPL Okay, and last like I've forked it from an MIT thing. Okay, I'll put it out, you know under MIT because I have to or whatever or like it's ambiguous, but most everything else I put out under like unlicensed like, you know, the landshad.net and and Based out cooking like all that kind of stuff. It's basically in the public domain Okay, what that means and that my my reason for thinking about that is like I Mean, I don't like I'm doing this for a reason like I don't I just think it's so annoying to have information out there and someone I don't know restricting it Just because they like want to make some amount of money. I don't know like maybe I'm I don't have enough of a shill Like here. I am you can happily donate me Monero.  You know what? I mean I can't do that like the digital world is a world where scarcity doesn't exist, you know what? I mean, it just seems like an abomination to do anyway I'm not being very coherent in my complaints, but it just annoys me and weirdly enough today I mean just as an example actually a funny thing Someone directed me someone sent me this email of this like Want to be Linux distribution? Okay, that basically what they've done is is they've taken my dot files some of you might may already know about this They've taken my dot files. They've taken like all my DWM Like the DWM block scripts and stuff like that And they forked everything and they made it look very pretty. Okay, I forget the name of this But there's this distribution that is basically beautified larbs. Okay, that's that's all it is and it's Really small distribution or whatever. No, of course, you know, I'm happy for that if they're using myself I would I would appreciate if they you know said, oh, this is Luke stuff, but you know, whatever It's not like I I put any kind of I mean, that's an issue of honor It's not an issue of like IP or something like that Although technically some of that stuff is licensed under the GPL and they re-released it under the MIT license Which I'm gonna contact my lawyers about that But no seriously though like if you if you get insulted by stuff like that That's just incredibly stupid. Like if someone takes based on cooking Right, which is all in the public domain and like makes it better and makes it a better website and like mirrors it I mean all the more power to them like the purpose of the site is not for me to you know, I'll happily You know put a Bitcoin donation address on it But like the goal in making those sites and doing stuff in the open source world is like to make things better Right and it's easy to make things better just in a little way Oh What's the name of the distro? I it wasn't a member. It started. I want to say it started with like pH something I mean, it's not a big distro. I don't think they even had like a a website.  It was like a really minor thing. It was just like half a dozen guys on a github probably run by one guy Um so a nonsense in some manero I'm an ex fedora tipper who's basically culturally Christian at this point But I can't convince myself that God exists or that the incarnation occurred in history any recommendations of how to convince myself Of Christian metaphysics. Well, the question is are you going to church? Are you like going to an orthodox church? Like are you? Are you going through the I mean Years ago on my website, right my original website before my e-celebrity website my personal website I just have this really good Essay that maybe I should bring back and it's like why people do and don't leave religion Okay, and I actually wrote this as an atheist Right and it basically the argument was that and this is something that on ex that has probably held the test of time Like I've changed my mind about many things, but this is something, you know I still agree with like if you think that you know when you become an atheist from a Christian the Cope that your brain produces is that you've convinced yourself logically that God doesn't exist and You know, I don't know like I'm back in my period. This is like during the period of like new atheism You know Christopher Hitchens Richard Dawkins these kind of people like you you you turned on YouTube And this was all there was right now used to watch lots of that stuff Okay hitch slaps remember those wow only 30 year old boomers will remember that But like, you know, so like there's this rational side to it I know it's not like those guys were making super good arguments But they're very I mean Christopher Hitchens is rhetorically persuasive like I mean he would get in debates on people He would argue that the Iraq war was justified and he would win debates because like he was rhetorically just you know I don't know gifted. Yeah, he's just good at winning arguments But even if he's arguing for something absurd But my point is like, you know, when I was going through that period, right?  And of course, oh, I have look at all my like great arguments.   Oh, wow, they're so they're cringe. Wow. These like services are cringe You know all that kind of stuff, right? So people underestimate like they want to they want to think that they're super rational people and That oh like these ideas are convincing me, but that's not the case like I you know I look at that period. I was like, oh, yeah Now I've been like logically convinced of this But it was really just my brain making excuses and all that is to say is all that, you know That is to say the reverse is true the reverse is true Like if you're an atheist who's like, oh, how do I convince myself of this?  You know, I feel called be be truthful. I'm an atheist I feel called to the church like I think maybe I don't even believe in this stuff yet, right? But like I feel I feel maybe it's the Holy Spirit even if I don't believe in that right or that there's some maybe there's some like Need for religion like start be honest like be honest about where you are and start participating in that, right? When I started when I was in Arizona, there's a brief period I even started going back to church, right? And I didn't believe in any of that But it's your actions and once once you're kind of in You know once you understand a an emotional way back you a rational way will also appeal appear so that is my Like I think a lot of people They look at this they look at this as being like an all of a rational battle Which is it which it isn't and as I said just a second ago, you know the way that I got Rationally back. I don't know maybe I can do a prolonged video on like, you know Well how that happened, but I think the wider point is that that's like kind of details But as I said earlier, you know, I actually started reading, you know Neoplatonic and hermetic stuff and like the weird thing is Theologically it's basically similar.  It didn't dump that stuff out It was like oh, this is an interesting philosophical viewpoint and then you realize oh well It actually like Christianity is the consummation of these things like it's the perfect like it's it's these things done, right? You know, I mean like Trinitarian theology. That's what that is So but that rational don't seek the read like don't seek human reason first because you cannot like I Mean this is a point in the Orthodox Church But it's also something it's a point that I was making years before I was a Christian again, right? It was you know human reason is not a reliable standard It is something like the inputs to the system the premises you're based on are Are so shaky and they're so subjective and you don't even realize it Okay, so anyway, that's that's what I would say. I've talked enough about that And on sense and some an error and says we lad I wonder what that's in reference to maybe that I think that was around the time I did the intellectual property stuff She means who since in three dollars Random and normie question. Why do some web websites look so good, but others don't what makes the difference?  That's probably why you feel like bit shoot is a crappier looking site But like web design is so subjective There are like standard the weird thing is it's it's so it's such a like a mode that changes over the year like you know Three years past and what web devs are doing are totally different.  I want it to look like it I'm on a desktop computer I want it to look like the 1990s and you know, I really appreciate and of course I make my sites kind of like this I really appreciate using built-in things in HTML You know what I mean? Like I don't like block. I don't like diffs new diffs I just I just want to page with stuff on it. You know, I just I don't know I want it to look like my websites Even though my websites I think are are ugly in the sense that I don't really care that much about like styling or whatever The functionality like I don't try and add weird functionality, right?   So I don't I don't even know where you can get a media goblin instant media Goblin okay, so media goblin is kind of like this. It's it's like a self-hosted You can host videos and images and stuff like that and it's still very much like a Let's see. Let's see if they have Yeah, you can put stuff on it But the thing is they keep it really simple they keep it in simple html But you can style yourself, but it actually looks really freaking good just because like it's simple. It doesn't Let's see, let's search media goblin instances I'm gonna pull one up. I'm gonna pull one up. So I mean this is a media goblin instance. It's not so this is like What is it? Oh? Man I'm such a boom. It's media dot Libra planet dot org Okay, and all it is right. Let me get rid of my freaking screen over here All it is is just like simple you click on this. Oh my goodness. Wow. It actually works. These are dope.  So it's it's super simple like it notice that it's not like taking a million years to load Right because like the thing is they're using They're using like basic HTML and stuff like that. They're not doing all this fancy JavaScript stuff To it keeps the exposure on this webcam keeps like changing every time I um move it understandably so Sprinkle knight says people were shitting on me because I didn't like the motivation behind it odyssey Yeah, the thing about odyssey. I mean, I'm fine with odyssey. I put stuff up on it I've even done one or two streams like a year ago like years ago I'm gonna change the exposure on this freaking webcam But like the thing about them is they try and do this cryptocurrency stuff where I don't think it's necessary For them to do it like and it's not really very decent.  I just why did Mike? Why did this freeze? Why did it? Hold on kids. Hold on kiddos. Let's get rid of this. Let's get rid of this for one second remove add video capture webcam Oh, come on. It's not hold on give me give me one second Okay, okay, I'm back. I'm back. I'm a lot bigger now I'm a lot bigger now I'm not gonna play with that because I don't want to mess it up again. Yeah, the weird I'm using so I'm running void Linux right now and The annoying thing I will just say that the more I use other distributions I realized like arches like such arch really needs I Don't credit for how good of a distribution it is Because Doing everything on other stuff like void Linux like it's fine like I'm using it on this machine And it works well, but like installing other stuff like that's not I mean in arts You have the a you are that's all I have to say and in void to have this annoying stuff called xbps Source which is totally trap. I mean it's basically the same as you just compiling a program yourself because it literally is that And like they there's a lot they don't have and one thing they didn't have I had to build my own version of OBS So I could get like the the Monero Notifications and stuff So all right, so anyway, what else are we gonna do? Let me check the Okay, I think I lost the internet connection for a second. Okay, okay, so anyway So the laptop internet is Kind of broken So did I read the yeah, I read that one read that one need to refresh my emails Yeah, I know the lighting is weird It's because like This room is totally Underexposed or something like that or you know that I like I have to have I have to record everything at super low Exposure because it's like if I didn't like everything would be so bright in here And that's what I tried to do a second ago like change the exposure and a broke Yeah, but that that's the annoyance of like compiling your own OBS because you have to use some idiots like patches Thoughts on the Georgia guy people Again a lot of boomer people who think it's like part of some serious conspiracy. We're celebrating but like it's just kind of cringe It's weird to do it because in real life like my internet is totally conking off Okay, yeah, sorry internet's back No, I got rid of that like temporarily I might bring it back so people can donate with credit cards, but like Like I don't need it that much like it's just kind of a Geez this thing is like totally broken. I really wanted to write my own donation portal portal But yeah, that's Starlink it goes off.   That's why Depends on what you mean by peaked I guess it began its decline there, but I wouldn't even say that that is I mean that that was the zenith of American power and maybe Technology, but you know now we can't even go go to the moon Now go into the moon. I will say that in terms of conspiracy theories.  That's so crazy In real life like of all the conspiracies the easiest one to have actually been fake was the moon landing Because if you compare it to all of America's other like achievements in space It is so far beyond it and like even the things that NASA says now It's like, oh, yeah, we can't pass the radiation belt and all this kind of stuff It's very suspicious. I thought we passed this in the like the late 60s, right? um So yeah, I think that now I have no actual opinion on the moon landing Although I do know some of the things that conspiratars say about it. It's very questionable But I think it's funny that that is the thing like it's honestly in terms of conspiracy theories It is one of them easy like it's one of the ones that's easiest to be true And in fact for it not to be true a whole lot of things have to have happened And then like when you really get into the conspiracy, you know There are all these people who like died in testing who were like saying that the moon landing wasn't possible and stuff like that So it's kind of interesting, but you know, I don't have a real opinion on it I'm not I'm not telling you don't don't be that don't make the takeaway. Oh Luke doesn't believe in the moon landing I just think it's pretty unlikely that I mean, I don't trust the American government about that What is important is we can't land on the moon nowadays because I don't know something went wrong or I don't know Luke what's your opinion on ad blocking?  I get is there's so many ads on this video Turn on an ad block.    No, don't do that.  I mean most most of the ad money is literally just going to YouTube Yeah, there's some like trickle Amount that I get which is like so like Ned negligible, you know in the grand scheme of things and I'm just not interested like who cares who cares You should everyone should be using an ad blocker.  He he well you turn off your TV. That's the actual Yeah, if you're watching something that forces you to watch ads like that's your own problem Andres since in $7 and he tips on how to best save your money for a house Golds over Bitcoin, etc. using a bank Well, I mean it depends on your time horizon so Putting money in like gold or Bitcoin or so while Bitcoin especially right I would think of it this way like when you want to buy a house Like if you if you're thinking about things in the way that I've been think about building a house or buying a house Right, that's something that I want to get like in the next couple years Right. Okay. I'm gonna save I'm gonna sit I'm gonna put away, you know, 20,000 bucks a year 30,000 bucks a year 40 I'd like however much you can and I'm gonna buy a house a house and cash after that Right. So if you're doing that putting that putting that money and anything aside from cash Can come with big risks. So if you put that in Bitcoin, yeah, there's a good chance like over five years Bitcoin is proud. I mean chances are Bitcoin is gonna be way up, but there's a chance that right when you want to You want to get it like it could be down so I Like in terms of like Bitcoin the way I look at Bitcoin is that is money That I don't have any intention of needing for like 10-20 years That's how I would think about like Bitcoin II stuff Silver and gold like they're not very liquid like Bitcoin is more liquid than silver and gold frankly Silver and gold are more like if you're serious if you really think the world's gonna end And like the internet's gonna end that that's really the only I Don't know that that's the only situation where I would seriously think and putting lots of money in silver and gold I Think the thing that I recommend people to do us you Internet's out internet's out. It's coming back. I guarantee you eventually. Okay. Yeah, it's coming back So, um, no it's going away All right, it's green again. I Mean I Would so I would view anything like putting money in stocks or Bitcoin or any of that kind of stuff to save for a house That you're gonna be using in the next like five years that I would view as questionable Basically, the best you have is just storing it in cash because even though that's gonna be eaten I mean at least that's the way it seems right now if you think that inflation is really gonna be bad like hyper inflation stuff, right? Maybe you can think about something else, but I will say the best case scenario. What is the actual best case scenario? This is what I manage to get working out and if you do this you have to You have to kind of plan in advance. You have to have a good contract and you have to like know I mean you have to trust the person here if you don't have a contract the person you're buying land from right? So what I did is I said, okay, I'm gonna pay X amount of money For this house, which I don't have right now. Okay, I had I think what I was looking to get a house I had like maybe twenty thousand dollars. Okay, that's all I had saved up from like graduate school Which is kind of sad, right? And I said, okay, I'll buy this thing in like two years like maybe two and a half I'm not quite sure You know how much it was and we did basically a rent to own thing We had a contract for that where every month I was paying rent, but that was going to Own part of the house, right? And so that's kind of the best case scenario where the money you have is going directly into your house All right, now it's not the same as a mortgage, right? A mortgage is you go in debt massively at the beginning So you're on the hook for all this money Whereas and you paid off gradually over time where in my case I was basically Okay, I'm paying this debt, you know, I'm paying into this and at the very end I'll pay a lump sum to finish it off, right? So that's what I did and it was great great because there are less financial risks the only thing is the thing that you might want to think about is If you're you want to make sure that you can trust like you have a good contract and like the other guy isn't gonna like Screw you over in some way like oh, well, you know the equity only count it Expires after this point or you don't own this portion, you know that kind of stuff So you want to be sure that you're doing it good But that's a good way of you know, that was my way of I didn't have enough cash to buy a house But maybe I will in a couple years. I'm not gonna get a mortgage and actually even to get a mortgage, right? I didn't need that much, right? Okay. I said that I had 20,000 I was I was a little further along than that And but like the amount that I needed was not like mortgage, you know to get a mortgage You've got to basically be barring like a hundred thousand bucks or something like that depending on who you're getting it from So I did basically what ended up being I think the best-case scenario And I would recommend it to people if you can trust the The contract that you're signing with someone so it's a good way of avoiding debt avoiding liabilities But still paying into your stuff and you don't have to worry about like Bitcoin going down or anything like that Now once you have a house I Would think more seriously about putting savings on like Bitcoin and stuff like that that you expect to be You know much higher in 20 years But you know whatever Okay, um Kind of got a pee, but I can probably hold it So Jogger, I think we already read yeah, I read that Hold on. I think I gotta check my phone on something. Okay. Yeah, so Think if Vin Moe is annoying they don't send me messages in like email they send it to me in text David says Do you recommend sites like code? Code catamy and you Demi to learn how to code and that's something you pay for don't do it absolute waste If you ever pay for something like I feel like I've heard those I don't know if they're like general tutorial sites I I think I've complained about like CSS and like web dev tutorial sites in the past because they're like really bad But I mean you could learn off of those things But if that's anything you have to pay for absolutely zero percent do that Other waste because all that like all that monetized content is just like it's just someone Taking stuff that's out there for free and like making it seem official by putting prices on it, which is stupid Keith Since the $5 and says hi I keep ads on I Keep ads on to see what the algorithms think of me Right now it thinks I'm going to die soon And I need to plan my funeral at a Jewish funeral home also thinks I speak Spanish every once in a while I'll use a computer like I'll log into my account without Without like ad blocking and I will get some yeah, I will get weird stuff like that too And also like a lot of my digital footprint like In terms of like especially like cross-referencing sites because I basically don't have any I will just get weird recommendations Marcio since and now five bucks. I don't see a donation message with that. Oh wow sad Well, I'm looking at something well done.  I pulled up All right, I'm not using a t400. I'm well I am I have a t400 right in front of me But it's what I actually have three computers now Usually I'm a one computer person and it it frazzles my brain ever having to but this is my old one and That I used to stream on and I started streaming off this old desktop that I found Which works better, but then I said like that leave a good guy. He sent me a another computer this stuff This is actually oh shoot. I shouldn't have moved that Okay, it's still loading I'm actually just transferring data off this before I get rid of it And it's like super broken like everything about my old think pad like I keep these things for like years because I you know I hate buying stuff Like it does it plugged up right now. Yeah, like it doesn't Plug up properly. You have to plug it in through a dock You can't use like the the plug-in thing like the AC adapter like it's in the machine like that's broken Like all the stuff on it's broken like it's I don't know Anyway, that's me like I hate I hate spending money Oops Let's go here. I don't have a Google account. So let me comment on your stream using proton meme. Oh Yeah, proton males Me and proton male are not on good terms Is my question is have you ever used the Larisa? web browser I think it suits most of your requirements in your blog post about you made about browsers only thing It does not have a config file, but it's configured like suckless software. I've never heard of that. I'll pull it up Larisa I've never heard of that. Now you that's probably like people would email me very stoop after seeing that Blog post people would email me very stupid things Like oh, have you ever heard of water flocks? It's like no does that match any of the stuff that I just talked anyway, I'm not gonna complain about it Wait Larisa, I'm looking it up. I don't see it Okay arch wiki. There's an article here. Okay, so it's in the AUR I Will I would install it right now if this was running arch But it's running void which takes a million years I don't even know why void has like the xbps source thing Because it's like just as hard to use that as it is just you basically have to compile the software yourself Like there's no point in it. It's no point in it Yeah, what are fox isn't me 103 requests on startup. Oh, is that is that actually what water fox does or is that what furry fox does? I mean, I just started using firefox once I finally bothered to configure the arch and fox js Which I should have done like five years ago Do you think that any site Should have some kind of DDoS attack protection. It's usually really annoying, but I don't see any good solution If such threat is real any thoughts For most people it's probably a massive waste And I think DDoS attacks are a little more Caught like you you have to someone has to be like really interested in wasting their money to DDoS Like some random dude Even meet like people will DDoS me every once in a while And it's like it's like an hour later. Okay. Thanks for wasting your money It's like, you know, it doesn't I mean, I just have like personal websites and stuff So I don't like for most people it's kind of a waste now Maybe if you have like a big company that you can't lose anything like any time you can't have any down time I don't know But in general, I think it's kind of just something that people sell to you That's what I would usually say Yeah, brave.   I don't want this crap That's the annoying thing about brave now I still haven't installed by larbs Just because it's like the easiest to just set up like I need it I need to be able to like deploy firefox with archon fox j s and some sensible plugins But the reason I have brave still installed by larbs by default is just because it's the only one that like okay It has an ad blocker and sensible stuff in it. So like I feel less bad about starting off on that Um, but yeah, if I get the time like if I get a free day theoretically today is a free day But I'm wasting it like streaming Um, I should um Yeah, I should do that Brave since telemetry. Yeah, literally every browser since telemetry Like firefox since telemetry like unless you're running with archon fox's j s or like some other If unless you've changed like the hundred different settings you need to in firefox Your firefox is sending telemetry like waterfox is sending telemetry all of those things. They're sending telemetry There's no said I mean maybe ungoogled chromium Um, because ungoogled chromium is basically like bare bones Uh, but even the every once in a while they'll find something there that they forgot to turn off turn off from like google's upstream But Yeah, they're they all suck. That's why I wrote that that blog post like all browsers like there is not I mean It's insane that there's no browser out there that's like sensible You know, maybe I'll I'll check out this Larisa thing I'll go ahead and install it in this thing I'll go ahead and install it See that's all you have to do to install something on arch what I just did in front of you meanwhile to do the same thing on Void linux actually I'm probably gonna have to press yes here. Okay. No, they didn't solve. All right. Let's let's pull it out Does it block ads by default? No, it's taking a long time to load Maybe it's not loading. Oh, maybe it's broke Maybe it's broke. Maybe it's a bad package build Yeah, there's some dependency that's not cold. I'm not going to deal with it right now. I'll I'll look at it later Yeah, but that's whoever Did the a u r package build they did something wrong okay, um Luke, do you think it's possible to build a cpu that is private but has the speed of a i5 or could the cost be impossible to overcome? Why don't more people try and get into these kind of ventures you're talking about like making a cpu I Mean you need a lot of like that's not something you can just like do in your backyard, you know that that I mean to Make a processor like you need a lot of machinery that can do very minimal like very small-scale work Luke, what about Libra both same same stuff? Anonymous sends in some xmr Actually saw that on the screen Uh says, uh, what do you think about lauren bobert Saying the church should run the united states government Also, thank you for your tutorial on websites and the email server Uh, if you want to check it out, uh, it's his site. I guess his reboot cyber dot x y z I will pull that up I can I can see the resemblance between this and my previous site Uh, let's see. Let's see how he's doing things. Yeah Yeah, it looks like he's using my lb script or whatever or at least something like it um What was I gonna say? Uh, so I don't who's lauren bobert. Have I heard of that person? Is that is that a boy or girl? I know that I know that that can be a boy's name. I've probably seen this person Oh, I have seen that person. That's a politician So I don't know anything about the context of that but saying oh the church should run the united states government is like saying I mean, it's it's a larp. Like it doesn't matter. Like, you know what?   Let's see Uh from colorado Yeah, I don't know about this girl um Looks like a total millennial It's probably just the glasses Um, all right, where's my where's my chat window? Here we are Some kind of says I should run the united states government. Yeah, I mean, that's that's equally a larp I mean, I don't know or maybe he's asking in in theory like Uh You know, what which side of the dante debate am I on? Is the church supposed to be secular authority or is it not? And I think the the orthodox I answer is that it's separate from secular authority You know, I mean the the idea that uh um I mean the the idea that like ecclesial and secular power are the same. That's very that's very catholic.   Yes, it would because it would just be a bunch of needs watching me like click on things and like fix problems and like misunderstand Issues and like fix things and respond to emails Like there are people who do that kind of stuff But I think it's kind of like freaking degenerate to have hours and hours and hours of stuff Like I feel guilty enough doing a live stream every two weeks. You know what I mean And at least in the live stream we're talking about more acute things where those videos I recorded them And I even they're actually uploaded to youtube. They're just not released Um, and then like around wednesday the videos started being corrupted and I was like, uh, this is annoying This is not worth watching Bosco says hasn't the u.s. Always been secular with multiple Protestant sex and so no unified church I mean, there's never been a state church in the united states, but there was always until like the 1950s You know, you you prayed in schools and you did religious stuff in schools and like Uh, there was religious stuff all over like federal land and stuff like that and then in the 1950s or so certain people People who aren't christian will just say that Started to have like a more marked impact on the legal structure And they tried to like get all of this out, you know, basically secularized schools made it illegal to To like read the bible in school. I mean you can't at an individual level, but it used to be basically you had um, you know, you had like this, uh, I don't know Like it was taught, you know what I mean So like now I actually at our school our school Weirdly enough was like super degenerate, but they did have some church that was like, oh Let's let's have like let's offer a bible class And the thing is it's literally illegal to do that stuff in the united states So what the kids had to do it was like a sixth period last period of the day thing Where the kids had to physically leave the the school and walk to a church to go to this class Right because it was like illegal to do that stuff and all that happened during the 1950s So when people say oh america has like separated church and state, that's in the constitution Uh, yeah, it's true the united states has never Uh, officially had an official Like church But it was always like there was always this You know very in fact some state governments and it's important to remember Some state governments started out as being officially affiliated with churches Originally this only applied to the federal government. Okay. And again these certain people, you know During the 1950s and so they started, you know agitating and actually a little before that too But you know basically the the supreme court came out with all these absurd rulings saying that The constitution like this restraint on the federal government for some reason applies to the state governments as well, right So in the way the constitution was originally You know written and interpreted for you know, a hundred something years Uh, the state of like georgia or the state of rhoda island was state of rhoda island church Right, or I want to say rhoda island. Maybe it was connecticut now because rhoda island rhoda island was like Kind of and kind of congregational or something. I forget exactly the history of rhoda island rhoda island people can tell me But there were definitely people Yeah aliens. Yeah, people are talking about aliens in the chat. I think it was the aliens or something um Yeah, I'm not quite sure who it is. Oh the stream is going down. I wonder what that's about. It must be the aliens Um anonymous says, uh, I'm traveling to it's sitting here waiting for the my internet to come back I like I like Okay, is it coming back? It's it's yellow Yeah, the thing is we talked about the aliens.  Yeah, that must be it Yeah, I told them I didn't care about DDoS attacks and now they're DDoS attacking me Oh, you give alt is that like an alien? Is that a sentence in an alien language? I don't know about that. Um Oh, look, I got fired after nine months from a tech remote position. Should I reinstall my os to remove all the spine? Yeah, you definitely should Yeah, I mean, there's no reason to have windows installed on your computer unless you're like waging If you're wage cooking and you're doing windows stuff like I guess you have to have it But even then I would contemplate being in I mean you guys know me I'm very intransigent Like I'm the kind I will make a fuss like if I'm in a business and they're like, oh, you have to use zoom I will make a fuss. I will be absolutely like Richard Stallman. I'm not doing that. Like I'm I'm absolutely You know, that's like basically my job history. I'm like, you know, dude screw it I'm not because the thing is people underestimate the extent to which you can make a difference in the job You're in. Okay.  I'm saying like Hey, be real be real like like this is why we shouldn't be using this stuff We should be using I don't know jitsi instead of zoom or something like that, right? It is like people like the thing is it's not like You just have to do this like in fact your employee your employer Will honestly probably look oh wow But wow he wow he came to me with a business suggestion and it was very wow He wanted to use this new software, but we don't have to pay for it and we can host it ourselves and wow We can build it into blah blah blah.  Anyway, you might as well lose your job eventually like who cares?  It is a good thing. It is a Uh internet's out again internet is out again Uh Bosco says luke is the vanguard of the wage atariate. Yeah, that is I I want the wages to to rise up No, really like I don't know people Just gotta make a difference. Yeah, thanks. Thanks for watching my slideshow guys Um, let me check a donation. So I haven't done that in a while Oh Oh another email, but that's not important um Chaman or shaman. I don't know what language that is so I don't know how to pronounce it I'm luke my employer is based and we have a we have shared accounts and a word doc where we store passwords So that sounds good We'll have fun with your base employer Luke you mentioned having key rollover issues with your Lolo with your lenovo keyboard. Have you experienced such issues with your unicomp and the caps lock key? Uh, have an original model m with no super keys. Uh, no, I've never had that I've never had any kind of key rollover issues with, um Unicomp What third world country are you living in in the united states? Probably never heard of it. It's like the third world country to end all third world countries Luke is buying minero with cash the best way to get started. I don't really know where to use it yet.  It doesn't like unlike bitcoin and unlike everything else It doesn't really matter where you get minero as far as I'm concerned because it's like private So if you buy, you know, even if you're using a kyc exchange Occasionally people come to me like an internet user KYC exchange occasionally people come to me like in real life Like I remember at minaretopia like some boomers came up to me and they were kind of like, hey Uh, we want to buy minero like, um, what should we do to buy it? Like here's what we have to do like, um And like for mo for a lot of people using a know your customer exchange isn't that bad like Yes, that's going to be on paper. You bought this amount of minero But once you take it off that platform, they have no freaking clue where it goes or like if it's actually for you Or for other people or all this kind of stuff. So Um, I would be less worried like if you're if you're familiar with bitcoin and you're getting into minero I would be less concerned where you get minero from because it's private Um, so you could get it like you could do cash on local minero or like bisk or something like that or you could um I mean you could get it off a kycs kyc exchange is not that bad caps mod shift To won't work on larbs build But it works with any other tab Well, it works fine with me Or well, I don't know maybe I'm probably like listening to a conversation um Anyway, I'm not gonna scroll back up Uh David was asking me what country I live in I live in Uruguay, which is quite bad. I'm sure I'm sure it's going to be better than the united states pretty soon Yeah, I mean that is you know someone asked early on the stream like Oh, is everything in the united states like always that bad and I will just say it's been so sad to watch this country like decline it's like so pathetic just everything like the place I grew up in uh in um Um, you know like Atlanta Just like see oh not just that also my my parents generations Right like the earlier generation, you know the stories I used to hear from people in living in like downtown Atlanta Like back when white people used to live there Like it's hard to even like understand, you know what? I mean, but it's like just the stories that they would tell of like the transition To how it is now and how terrible it is and like just how painful that was like growing up there Or like even where I was which like where I grew up like where I was first born I lived in what became a pretty bad neighborhood like it was a you know there was like crime and gangs and and like Graffiti all over some signs eventually I actually went back recently and it's not that bad like my neighborhood Was like kind of okay in that but like the school nearby and everything it was just like total trash Like gangs and stuff It was like a nightmare just but just to see that transformation because it wasn't like that when I was born You know what? I mean like it was weird like the the middle school I went to too. I mean we're just to see like the immigration Happen like you know if you want to quantify if you want to quantify it like the the middle school I went to When I went to it, um It was proud like I looked it up like A little bit ago like when I went there it was something like maybe 20 white and it was like Biggest population was mexicans more blacks than whites. There's some amount of whites They're actually a good amount of like koreans in that area Um and you look at it now and it's like zero percent white They're like literally like three white kids in the whole school But in the 90s Like when I was born it was something it was basically 99 percent white You know what?  They're not even from you might think Oh, it's like Atlanta area black people are in the south right? No These are like people moving from new york too, right? So Anyway, like uh fizz up into that area now. It's very commercial now.  You know what I mean You know that that's how a lot of like suburban quasi suburban areas You know, uh like the process they're now going through right it just happened to be a little earlier Luke living in the project No, I mean the thing is I wasn't living in the projects like the the place that I grew up like A normal person would describe it as suburban because it was suburban or even like boondoxy It was a little further out than suburbia, right? So I wouldn't call it the hood if I showed you pictures from my neighborhood like you wouldn't think I mean you wouldn't think of it as the hood just kind of a normal unmarked neighborhood Like it's not a rich place There are a couple there were a couple rich houses in the area but like um, it's just like the Like the schools around there and like the surrounding area was so bad Like it wasn't it wasn't the project like I didn't grow up. I'm not a hood rat I didn't grow up in the projects like I'm not saying I grew up from in like a bank head or something Which I didn't but you know that that's the weird thing of it, you know And it was funny when I when I when we moved We moved to a high school that had a reputation of being like a super white high school And that means like being 50 white like that is a lot of white people in that region, you know And when I when I graduated it was 25 white just to tell you like how quick the demographics have changed so Not gonna says our soldiers wage ease. Oh soldiers are like the king of wage cuts Any advice for young people thinking about joining the military do not I cannot what I know How could you even ask me that I'm not even gonna I don't feel like I need a just that's it It's I can't even imagine Joining the military in the current year Well, you want you want to go die for like Ukraine or Israel or something like I can't even Like it's one thing to work in a business Where you're made to do things every once in a while that go against your principles. I can't imagine Oh, no, if you're saying, oh, I'm gonna join the military in um I don't know if I'm assuming you're American if you're not American You know, maybe joining a military. Maybe if you're in I don't know Poland or something or I don't know even even Maybe some places in Europe, you know joining the military, whatever. Maybe it's fine. Okay, but I can't imagine Do not join the American military. Oh my goodness. That would be crazy. It would just be insane.  So I can't even That's just beyond I can't believe someone asked that um Not someone said Luke. I just found out. Uh, I'm in the early stages of mpb And it's really taken a hole in my mental health. How should I cope should I try and what is mpb? Mississippi public broadcasting pattern baldness and it's really taken a toll on my mental health.  Okay. Yeah People do say mpb for male pattern baldness.  Okay, so let's You know, I've thought about doing a video on like being bald Uh, so let's let's be realistic. Firstly Holding on to your hair is you should see Like photos of me when I was like in my I don't know maybe mid-20s where I still I hadn't shaved before and I was like, uh Um You know, I was still trying to hold on to my hair even though I was like losing it That is like the lowest energy thing you could possibly do. It's like reddit tier Okay, once you it was so once I finally shaved it and by the way also when I first shaved Okay, notice I have side hair. I've I've been doing side hair for the past like two years That is another good thing that again if you're a young guy, I don't know Maybe if you're super young, maybe if you're super young, it might be weird like this But for my age, I guarantee you like this is totally. Oh, this is like I'm happy with this because the thing if if you shave the whole thing off It looks It's just I mean you can look at freaking videos of me Like two or three years ago, right and you will you will be like, okay Yeah, Luke looks best now Then he did before because like back then I was like basically come all I can say is like If you're losing your hair, you're losing your hair get over it If that affecting your mental health, you shouldn't even be talking like that. Oh, yeah Do you feel bad about yourself? Maybe you do because guess what? Here's what's going to happen. You're going to look different You're going to look different. I I still Uh when I look in the mirror, I'm still like getting used to how I look now You know what I mean? It's not how I looked when I was younger once you shave your head You are going to look like a different person You can view that as a superpower now you can blend in you can find people you know You used to know in the past and like they're not going to recognize you. I view it as a superpower, right? um But yeah people I don't know if you're if you're thinking about I'll just say once you Finally shave it off or like get over it. You're just not going to be thinking about it anymore So I don't know. I don't have anything coherent I like I have thought about doing a video about this because occasionally I get like questions about it But like dude, it doesn't matter like it doesn't matter like it's something beyond your control Um, I wouldn't I wouldn't take any kind of supplements or any that kind of crap like don't don't even bother I don't know. Maybe something works. Maybe something will slow it down. I just don't care Like it doesn't matter enough to to care. Just like go ahead and embrace it. Um That's my that's that's my view on it. Um RC says female brain my appearance dramatically impacts my mental health go lift weights, dude Uh, yeah, that's kind of my view Of course, you know Yeah, if if you like feel bad about that, it's just not You got other things to do. There are a million other things Yeah, yeah, just go ahead and come with the grip, you know, come to grips with the fact you're going to look different Okay, uh, and I will say I look better now than you know, many periods when I had hair now Could I have done could I have been way more attractive? You know and by actually doing stuff with my hair other than just like letting it go crazy like I did when I was younger Yeah, I could have done something like that. Um, but you just got to get over it Like it's not it's not it's like saying. Oh, I was I you know, I was born without the ability to walk Should I live my entire life like wondering what it's like to like walk and stuff like or I was born colorblind or something Like it's like you're you don't have control over it. So why would you why would you care, you know Sointess since then uh, so Maximar, what are your thoughts on evolution? The evolutionary worldview is a is dominant domineering a lot of red pill circle Domineering that's not really a proper maybe you mean dominating dominating a lot of red pill circles But it's also a huge justification for man's sin and atheism Uh, I don't really think that much about evolution. I mean like obviously I've done podcasts and stuff that assume that like evolution is true Uh, probably when I was like less Like I you know, I was I was kind of christian then but I was like not so much I mean, I was sort of like getting back getting back now as it comes to evolution itself I don't really think about it that much. Like I think uh, it's really important for like internet Atheists and stuff and like a lot of people care, but I just don't think about it that much Um, so and I also am not like super Decided, you know, I don't really feel like it's it's it's um, you know, this is not my official You know, I'm not an orthodox priest or something like that But like I don't really feel like it's like a a fundamental issue. You know what I mean Um, like it could be possible that evolution is like true Um, it could also be possible that it's not.  Kent ham or like all these like Baptist apologists who are like really kind of cringe and they're making all these really Sophistic arguments for creationism that are bad, but like I don't know I don't really think about it to be honest. Like I don't have a strong opinion um Either way, so I don't know. I probably should think more about that but I don't know. I think it's okay not to be opinionated about it Um, I mean obviously my view of science. I will say this my view of science has is basically negative like You know, I mean you guys know from my podcast episodes and stuff like that Uh, I have a lot of criticisms criticisms of the misuse of statistics the like over reliance on like Scientific consensus and like how flimsy it is and all that kind of stuff Um, and you could probably apply those arguments to evolution. I've just never really like look through it To such a degree that I don't know. I like so I'm not going to be this anti-evolution Apologist, uh, without some further reading.  Yeah, that yeah, that's the guy I'm thinking about someone said it in the chat Yeah, there's kin ham and kent hoven. I think Bible story when we're bald man sends a bear after children for taunting him opinion Well-based Squats are the original fos for your mental health gem not required. I think that's a guy who told that guy to lift What made you go to orthodoxy instead of catholicism? Uh Oh internet's conking out. Okay. Why orthodoxy not catholicism? Well because um Catholicism is I mean, well, I'll say this. Okay. So catholicism was important in my development like You know starting out as a Protestant If you start catholicism is like the next closest thing, right? So you look into that and you guys know like I was big into Aquinas I was big into to catholic writings and and and papal stuff and like the middle ages and stuff You know, I read latin very well. Um, so I was very much invested in that kind of stuff So why why did I go for the orthodox church over the catholic church? Well, the simple reason is, you know The catholics are wrong on basically everything they agree with the orthodox on firstly. I mean the biggest thing is You know, if you look at the dividing point in east and west A lot of it a lot of people will attribute it quite properly to the rise of scholasticism Now I like scholasticism as an academic discipline But the west has due to it it places this like extremely high Uh an undeserved value on human reason and we've already talked about this in this stream And I feel like we talk about this in other streams, but yeah human reason is not to be Overvalued right and so catholics what they try to do is they they take christian tradition And they try to systematize things and when you systematize things that means you're going to be adding to it You're going to be you're going to be saying okay. Well, we've now logically derived, uh, you know these new things And of course, you know the big the the big development in the the west of course is the idea and this is a totally absurd idea that Again to a protestant who's never heard anything like You know catholic or anything based on traditional historical christianity, right? This is going to sound a little You know, what do they mean by this? But when you really start to hear the arguments for like You know the the the authority the the history You know, I guess the seat of the pope the idea that like there is this Bishop of rome that has this eternal power and it's basic You know you read a couple passages in the bible, you know the the uh on this foundation I'll build my church and all this kind of stuff and it kind of there's this just so story and a protestant Will hear stuff like oh my goodness. Wow. Maybe there is like this this like traditional Um, you know, there is some historical basis for the papacy and all this kind of stuff Well, the thing is when you look further at it, you realize like the papacy was basically invented I mean it well systematized around the period of the gregorian reform Okay, and around the time of the schism And before that you'll hear people you'll hear bishops of rome Like around maybe 500 or something purport to have this like universal jurisdiction But it's totally absent from the early church. I mean even if you look at even if you look at like, uh, so called western Church fathers like augustin Now augustin has a commentary on like, you know the passage where jesus is talking about. Oh, you're peter and on this rock I'll build my church Does augustin think that that means like a papacy? No because no one believed that at that period It's it's this idea that developed as time went on That has no I mean it like the thing is catholics their view of tradition They view tradition basically in the same way that like ruth bader ginsburg views the constitution Like tradition is stuff that we inherit and then we add to it Okay, so they'll say, oh, well, you know, we so-called developed doctrine in the newman's sense, right? Uh, honestly if they were honest about themselves They would say the papacy is also one of these developed doctrine because it isn't like it is just absent from the early church Right, there's there's no idea of it there, right? um And you know like what catholic apologists will do is they'll like look at a couple. Oh, here's a passage Of a guy saying that rom is really important Or here's like the roman bishop telling someone to do something that means people, you know, I mean listen popes Popes have have endorsed contradictory teachings in the past. They have been anathematized by the church In councils. They have done they are not some universal authority Uh, it shouldn't even I don't know the word pope is kind of even using that as like It should be saying the bishop of rome because that's all it is Right and the term pope mind you was used for other people aside from the bishop of rome It was eventually just you know taken on it's just associated with the, you know, roman catholic church now, but Anyway, so catholicism, I mean they have a lot of problems Uh, and I think like it was appealing to me like, you know Learning about catholic doctrine was important for me getting back to orthodoxy Just because like it it made it it made orthodoxy less alien to the Protestantism I was familiar with But it still is Like how like I find it really hard to justify Basically everything catholic, you know or roman catholic, you know all this kind of stuff.  They're based on adding true tradition They're based on this absurd doctrine that like the papacy is something that Has a history in the early like the early church was secretly they secretly had a papacy. They just never talked about it You know, it was just nuts, you know So yeah, that's that's what I mean You know people occasionally would email me and say hey luke you inspired me to get back into christianity and I became a catholic and I'm not saying I'm I I would say that's a Pareto improvement, but um I over atheism, I guess But uh, yeah, I don't um, I'm not a catholic. I I don't uh Yeah, I I don't want to say it's all bad, but I all mind you I will say this You've asked me how I feel about the catholic church notice I haven't even said anything about vatican too or pope francis or the fact that the modern day catholic church is literally just preaching heresy like Oh, yeah, all that stuff about divorce. Yeah, just kidding about that all that stuff about like Oh, there's only one church, you know, no salvation outside of it. Oh, we're just kidding about that now the modern day catholic church It's not even in the running.  I mean that that's why if you if I during the period I was like Contemplating Catholicism you basically I mean the only game in town is a kind of set of vacantism because the modern catholic church is so Heretical and so disconnected from its own past You can't even you can't even process it unless you say, okay This is not the catholic church that it used to be and of course when you look further into that That's how it's been like the whole time like, you know Popes have you know, there have been uh, you know Popes that have been uh, basically heretical and stuff like the whole I'm not not talking about anti-popes. I'm talking about Anyway, I'm talking about this for too long Okay, so Anonymous says do you have any books? Uh, any book recommend books recommended for people who liked Pandora's seed the unforeseen cost of civilization um You can look at that. I'm trying to think what else what's that guy's name Spencer Spit what's the guy who read it Wells I want to say Uh, I should know his name. Yeah, he did he does stuff with ruseb khan Uh works with him. I think but um Yeah, I can't off the top of my head. I don't know that book is more like compared to other books I talk about and not related that was like probably one of the most normie books that I've ever done. So I don't know Anonymous sends in some x more and says but I strongly prefer catholic architecture. Nothing comes close It may be right. Yeah, one thing I have heard orthodox priests complain about is like, you know, one big artistic difference Is like orthodox christians, you know, they use this kind of otherworldly like Byzantine style of art Whereas catholics during the you know during the high middle ages You have catholics making this gothic stuff and stuff that like looks more realistic, you know, I mean now it's great art It's fantastic art But I think I have heard orthodox priests be like And well it shouldn't be realistic like it should be this kind of rarified like kind of otherworldly feel which I kind of understand But yeah, I mean art art like in terms of realism kind of reached its zenith in that kind of Gothic and then later Baroque periods Which you know Baroque Baroque art is basically Baroque art was like hated by people at the period like critics I know it's good art compared to stuff now.  Oh my goodness. Wow. This is so amazing But Baroque art at the period was actually like kind of controversial because it was like viewed as sort of indulgent And it was like it was like there was always so much in every frame It was like it was like george lucas art It was like it was like ben garrison art where he labels everything That was how people perceived Baroque art because it was just like scenes of like a million different people And they're all oh, they have highly reactive faces and stuff like that But you know nowadays we look back at that and we're like, oh man the good old days back when art was art, you know Baldness can be caused by high testosterone levels. I mean, yeah, that's definitely true That's probably partially true in my case, but I will also say a lot of my male relatives are also bald as well I I will say my family I would say, uh I don't know it's hard to describe how my family is mentally I would say we probably have higher testosterone than most people, but it's more it's more like an intellectual testosterone You know what I mean like few of us are like I don't know Few of us are like working out kind of people you you guys tell me I don't really work out other than throwing around the rock and doing yard work, right Which I probably should I probably should, you know, I would be setting a good example for people if I did that, right? um, but most of people in my family, they're more like, um intellectually intransigent that's probably how I describe it like They all have their own they're they're I would say they're similar to me like they In a medicine, they're similar to me, but they're not like if you met them you'd be like, oh, this person is like nothing like luke and that that is true Did you bald from the creatine? What is cre is creatine like a working out like a steroid thing? I don't even know um Yeah, I'm roiden. I'm super roiden actually right now I got veiny arms my my super small arms are very veiny um Copium detected was it my copium or someone else? The thing is I read the the comments or the the chat and I never know who people are talking about um Maybe they're talking about the orthodox art thing Orthodox art has muted faces as to try to fit how you are feeling And not uh be an in-between your feelings and thoughts and gone. Yeah, that's another yeah orthodox or all orthodox icons and paintings will be like Well, actually that looks too boring. It's more like totally neutral face, you know Uh, that's a there's a cool reason behind so much orthodox stuff Great david says, uh, you're already going go mad Just need to start strength. What is go mad? I I don't I don't know. This is like lifting stuff I think people are what what is go mad? Oh Gallon of milk a day. Okay. I've heard that I've heard that I actually have not been drinking milk that much Just because I'm been trying to like spend less money on food I know that's kind of a weird reason milk is kind of expensive as far as I'm concerned I mean if I eat at my house more than five dollars in food a day, I feel like oh my goodness I've just wasted so much money, you know, which is kind of hard because I basically don't eat anything but me Especially nowadays thinks the president brand and making everything expensive um Okay, I gotta pee I really need like a commercial What should I do for like a commercial break here? I don't know. Um, maybe I should just walk out of the room enjoy it. Okay, uh I don't know think of something funny when I come back There better be something funny in the chat for me to respond to not I mean it has to be insightful like breed breed stuff worth talking about What's the diploma?  I mean it's just like different awards and stuff from from my earlier life um But then I needed room for the bookcases so I moved all that stuff and my degrees have been like sitting actually over there On the floor. I had to move them. I might maybe I should put them. I have this space clean. Maybe I should put them up there um okay Did you wash my hands? No, no, I didn't wash what I didn't touch my wiener Why would why would you wash it? That's the most neurotic thing ever People wash their hands in the bathroom without having touched anything Showing off degrees of cringe. Yeah, basically a degree in the cringe department right there Uh, yeah, that's my gender studies major. Uh, I got I got a um BA in gender studies a ma in um, I don't know what I get it in I don't know. I'm trying to think something.  I mean, yeah I mean, that's that's how the world is Um, that's what you got to do like what else are you going to do to get money like Yeah, a lot of people well one one thing about making videos is when you do a video If you want if you want to get things down talk about things in like 10 minutes You have to be Hyperbolic sometimes right so a lot of people will see my videos and they think oh well Luke is just like against working at all or something like they say he's talking about how sucky it is to be a wage-cuck So he must he must want me to quit my job or something. Well, I don't think anyone actually thinks that but I will say like People who want to be critics will be like awesome your time. You're saying people aren't supposed to have dropped no Clearly not. I'm saying that clearly clearly not. I'm saying that um No, I mean like yeah, you got a wage. I like what do you think I was doing for my 20s like I was wage-cucking Like I you know, I I wasn't grad school for a period and I was getting paid there And I wouldn't consider that wage-cucking because basically you're not doing any important work It's amazing graduate school is like if you're in graduate school for anything academic you now because like it's so it's so like subverted like everything so You know politicized and stuff It's like if you're a morally normal person It should be difficult for you to even go to grad school nowadays But it was a cheap way like it was a way, you know, I when I graduated This was during the financial crisis and like finding jobs was actually like so hard, you know This is like back in like 2012 or whenever um So yeah, I was like, oh, I'll just go to grad school and I'll just work there and that worked fine But I don't necessarily recommend that to other people just because even even in the post trump era era like Like like the universities are just so much more psychotic than they were before like it's so much worse Like even than what it was like two years ago and that's like so much worse than it was like two years before that Right, you know What was I saying about wage-cucking? Oh, yeah. Yeah. So someone asked about a wage. Yeah. So yeah, you definitely need a wage-cuck You definitely need to wake you have to get money somehow like how do you think you're gonna get money, you know? Right There is no easy way out like unless you just get extremely lucky, right?  I'll actually streams. I I mean you can count up I wonder how much I've made here, but like If you do if you do the math, I want to say I have my tax I was hold on I moved it earlier today because I was like oh when I moved the webcam. I don't want them to see that I'm like contemplating showing you how much I make for my No, I'm not I'm not gonna show you There are other reasons not to show you that but I will just say that it is significantly It is significant. It's like half what a minimum wage job makes Basically, that's the stipend that I get from youtube now. Can I monitor? I will happily, you know Have my book selling site and other things to make money, but like Anyone there are a lot of people who will post things on my videos that are like, well, you've got it easy because you're making money online Yeah, I'm making like, you know a pittance online Which is fine It's great as a stipend and for a minimalist lifestyle on me like me Like you can get by with something like that if I needed to but yeah Don't assume what people do is they they look at me or they look at someone else and they're like Oh, well, he's on the internet. He must be making it easy which is like nonsense It's like not only did you have to put a lot of work into do even to get even to get the assets I have now like in terms of oh, I can do a stream and people will watch me And I can like tell them to go to my website or like even even attaining that took like years of like You know, you know, and I mean it takes a lot of work to took years of me doing it for free, right? um So anyway, all of this is to say like a lot of people will count themselves out because they feel like they don't have anything Right. Oh, I don't have like this easy way to advertise my business on a youtube channel or instagram page or something like that You don't need that like the thing is start doing what you want to do start doing what you know You need to do and then opportunities will open up, right? um That that's what I think and then other people will be looking at you like oh, well, you're you're just successful Because you got this one client this one way and you got lucky, you know, I mean that that's that that's how it works All in the views of other people it always seems like oh, it just came for free, right? David says how long do you think clown world can Uh sustain itself five years ten uh probably a lot longer than that because it's been going for like hundreds of years So, I mean I I never bet on clown world collapsing I bet on living in the best case like I I bet on living in a place You know physically and spiritually where whether clown world Falls or survives Makes as little difference as possible. Okay, that's that's basically what I preach So I'm not I'm not opinionated on when things will collapse or not not very opinionated Freddie says uh, george holts Uh recommends learning assembly language first You won't understand what a computer is doing if you don't learn it. He says do you agree? Well, I don't know assembly So, you know, maybe um Maybe I'm not qualified to answer this but I do think there is a sense In which that general intuition now he's probably knows way more about it than me But I will say one thing that I've noticed is it's always better to understand how lower I mean, let's put it this way. So if you learn python first Okay, as a language there's going to be all this You know garbage collection all all this kind of stuff like different typing and stuff that you're not aware of Right if you if you learn python and when you learn a language that does explicitly do that kind of stuff with which python does you just don't see it, right? um If if you learn another language, you're always Like you you kind of went very early on to understand how things work at the core And I think um, that's probably what he's saying Like if you understand assembly now, I I understand some principles of how assembly works I don't know if you ask me how to do anything in assembly. I can't tell you But I do think uh, that's definitely true and that's uh true of a lot of things that I complain about Let's say like in the systems administrations realm Right where it pisses me off where someone is like writing a program to do something that some Core unix utility does you know what I mean that that upsets me it upsets me when I see like a python program That does something that awk can do way more effectively. It pisses me off, right? um I I think I I did a video talking about um A while ago. I I saw someone who made A python script to do what in l does Okay, what is in l does it what does in l do it numbers line? So you like give it a file and it like outputs It it just puts a number increment a number in front of those lines, you know what I mean It's it's like not knowing core utility. So you're gonna use some I don't know that same concept Similar concept at least Yeah Yeah, you remember that video. Yeah, it's pretty old. It's like three years. You know, I've actually so I was I was talking um Talking with one of my acquaintances Who cares about super officials like I actually a female acquaintance and uh, we were looking at some of my old videos And we were cringing at them, of course Mostly just like how weird I looked three years ago I know I was talking about like I looked ridiculous three years ago in terms of like just my hair My my like, uh, the way I had my hair or lack of hair Like my facial hair.   I should be like my blackface channel. Um, and uh, get really fit Then I'll redo the videos actually. No, I shouldn't make excuses. I should do those now Um, all right, let me check, uh, donations Oops Okay, I gotta check that later. Um Carl Lubermensch says, um thoughts on Moscow, third Rome thoughts on nuclear power Thoughts on the fact that your taxes financed brandon Do you think that quitting porn is enough? It's literally conspiracy against christians to develop I'd send you a speech, uh, it's french. You can send me that speech if you want I know enough french to like understand people and they're speaking french usually Actually subtitles will help like french subtitles will help, but you know Every time I listen to french like I kind of have to get back into the motive it because I very rarely use it Uh, so Moscow, third Rome. That's an interesting theory. I I guess I guess some orthodox people You know, maybe I'm gonna turn on the light here because, um, the explosion now it's getting dark in here. Um Yeah, so that's the idea that like the legitimate air of Rome Uh You know pass from of course, Rome to constantanople And then when constantanople was taken over because Moscow took over a lot of the orthodox stuff and a lot of other things Uh, Moscow is actually the legitimate third Rome. Uh, there's a theory behind that. Um, I don't really Think that much about it. Don't really think about who's real realm. Who's the real I mean, you know I guess I guess russia has the most solid church kind of right now At least in terms of uh adherence to tradition, but I've actually I actually went um, so now I've been to Rokor Oca and uh Greek churches um The great church is definitely like I don't want to like some people will use the term liberal to describe the Greek churches Which I don't think is fair because like they're so They're so more conservative than than every other, you know christian sect Like the most modern thing the Greek church I went to they appease That that's like the most modern thing. It's like, uh, it's weird. Like I'm already so set on like more traditional churches that I'm like Puse that's a little I don't know. That's a little liberal to like, you know, it's weird. Of course, they're not sitting down in the pews It's up for like maybe two seconds, but anyway nuclear power, uh I don't really think that much about it. I'm not I'm not into um I'm more in favor of deindustrialization, but if we're going to have industrial technology, it'll be nice to use nuclear power um Thoughts on the fact that your taxes financed brandon. Yeah, that's why you should pay like as few taxes as like legally possible for you to do Obviously, um And like I don't uh varg used to say this as well Like it's actually I don't know. I don't I won't say I agree with this But varg would say stuff like you basically should earn as little as possible that you can get by with That way you have to pay as little as possible in taxes Which I don't think I mean considering really the way they make money is inflation Like I don't think that's really making a difference and I think it is better for people to make money And take that financial power for themselves. Like even if it means paying a little bit more taxes Um, I think that's a good idea. But you know, what are you gonna do? Like you don't have a choice It's it's like it's like the guy who is going bald, right?  It's literally I mean, is it enough?  Um, but yeah, everyone should do it I am or Ian whichever he prefers says Since an XMR and he says, uh, how could a loving god send people that act morally but don't believe in them to hell? Um seems to me like bitcoin are saying Uh, have funds staying poor for not believing in their surveillance coins Also, the fact that some religions have probably existed longer than christianity is odd So well a couple things about that firstly, I mean in the orthodox faith, right? Like orthodox do not think of like heaven and hell In exactly the same way that the west does. Okay. So firstly, um Like how We ultimately do not have the knowledge of who god is You know going to have conjoined to him, right? So how the orthodox? Well, actually, let's put it this way. Okay There's an old orthodox parable, right? I'll go ahead and I've probably said this on a live soon But people like it because it illustrates. I think how the orthodox actually look at heaven and hell and all this kind of stuff, right?   But they can't eat the food because they have like Forks and knives and spoons that are massive like they can't they can't take the the food and then like fit it into their mouth Okay Then it goes to heaven and in heaven materially.  They have these massive, you know spoons and forks and knives and whatever Right, so you can't you can't feed yourself with these things But the people in heaven they use them to feed other people So they they they feed the guy that's further away easy to do that.  There's a sense in in in which that happens The what is the condition of your soul that is have you purified yourself of sin or have you not Right have because if if someone is living If uh, sorry the internet is going down a little bit. I'm gonna wait just a second. Um I don't know if you're even getting this Okay, so so the um So the the orthodox view would be basically have you purged yourself of sin so if You're someone who still has sin if you're living in sin if you're tethered to cooming and and uh fornication and adultery and like You know greed and you're prideful and all the stuff if you are brought back in union and god That is hell like that is suffering for you because you have not removed the sinful nature from you. Okay, so Um, the the whole question this is predicated on this that he's asking this is predicated in western christianity where it's like Oh, divine punishment and blah blah blah. No, that's not how it works. It's we have to pur Purify ourselves of sin because after life We're going to be unified with god in a way and we in order to be around with that purity We can't have these these these imperfections, right? So that that is that's what the church is doing It's helping us to uh remove our sins, you know, and of course that's what god's grace is doing and all this kind of stuff Right, so it's not it's not like the sadistic now and of course there is a justice in that right if someone if someone persists in their sins um Yeah, that it will be a painful experience for them But you know that that's kind of how it is like I think when bitcoiners say have fun being poor or something like that um It's mostly like screw it like if you want that life if you've chosen that life Of rejecting this like easy fix, you know what I mean that when bitcoiners say that it's It is like an arrogant thing to say, but it's actually the people who are also being arrogant or really more arrogant people who are being Indignorant, you know how they say who are ignorant, but they're also indignant about it. Um And it's it's sort of similar like there are a lot if you look at atheists nowadays They don't want to be like cured from their sin Or if they are they're like the person who asked earlier in the stream who was like, oh, how do I get out of atheism, right? um So yeah, that's why I I don't really think I mean we should also pray for the salvation of everyone um, but uh, it is divine justice if if someone you know if if they die in sin and they You know despite being given of these opportunities to repent, right? It's not I mean that's the life that they chose, right? um So hopefully that clears things up. The perspective is just different. It's not like I don't know That's one of the reasons even the metaphors the western church uses to describe salvation and the afterlife are kind of screwy Because they're they're kind of this like oh god is going to like condemn you for not believing No, that's not how it works like the church like Uh, the church came to to remove sins from the world, right? Oh, and by the way, he does also say oh religions have existed longer than christianity I mean that doesn't mean anything like yeah, that's that's the whole the point like Yeah, there are many false religions, right? That doesn't mean I don't I don't really get the point of that one. Um, but um Hi luke, uh, I get consumed with anything I get into obsessed How do you deal with balance in life? I seem to always just be able to do one thing at a time And I always want to learn more the deeper I get into it. Well, depends on what position you are in life I will say when I was younger. I was very much like that Okay, I was very I was very much like that when I was younger Um, and I will say as I got older it wasn't something I tried to do But I just kind of snapped out of that like as I had more life responsibilities I was able like I was much more autistic like in terms of oh, I'm devoted to this I'm gonna study this and learn this, you know, that's much more how I was gonna Get rid of some of that white in the background. So maybe it'll re-expose to like a different On how that looks funny That looks really funny. I don't like how that looks Anyway, yeah, I mean, so I think there is a part Where it depends on where you are in life. Like if you're just like learning how to do things That's actually a really good mental state to be in Um, like if you're if you're starting out early 20s If you're like a college kid, if you don't really have anything else to do with your time That's a totally fine thing to do or a totally fine position to be in In fact, it's and most people who like ask me questions Like I would recommend for them to be like that like be obsessive in terms of what they get into Well, I also it depends on what you're getting into if it's like freaking anime.  Um Oh, that's rain. It's sort of raining all of a sudden So You'd have to give me more specific For me to tell you more than that, you'd have to give me like more specific information like what what what's going wrong SIG uh says I hope you have the chance to visit an FSSP church luke. Thanks for all you do and god bless. So yeah, that's that's a catholic thing. That's um Fraternity of saint wait FSSP Maybe i'm confusing it with the sfpx or whatever it is Um, oh priestly fraternity of saint peter. Okay Yeah, yeah, that's a catholic thing David says One thing I noticed about western theology versus orthodox theology is the western emphasis on the mind and belief in christ Rather than the demonstrable faithfulness to christ god be merciful on us. I mean, that's also kind of like specifically a Protestant thing um Yeah, because you know Protestants, they're all like, you know, they say this stuff that they call faith alone But it's it is kind of like more like epistemic belief alone um Okay, let's see Let's see here. Um Some kind of monastic living which is very few people like most guys nowadays. They're just uh um Well, the other thing is like guys who are 22 I don't know even guys like who haven't like had a real girlfriend Like they think that like that's their whole life. That's good. Okay. Are we streaming? Are we streaming? Hello? Maybe if I scream louder, you'll be able to hear me. Can you hear me? I don't know why I wanted to yell Man right when I was about to simp I was about to simp for womankind and they cut me off um Is it is it back? Yeah, it started raining whenever it starts raining like I lose internet connection briefly Yeah Oh, oh man.  Is it loaded? Is it is it going? Is it going? Am I back? Am I actually back? Oh, wow I just like 500 comments that I hadn't seen just reappeared All right. Yeah So when we talked about aliens the stream went down and then when I Okay, is it back back again? I don't even know. I don't even know may I I should just I should get in a habit of just recording myself Talking to the screen for several hours and just upload that and we can pretend that it's a live stream We can pretend Yeah, aliens are at fault Okay Uh thoughts on graphing at uh os Not really that many um I don't really think that much about the uh Phones I mean I have I happen to have lineage on my phone and the only thing about lineage is uh I I want to say they signed the like anti stallman petition And so once they did that I was like, yes grew that like I'm not a big fan of them I don't know if graphing did but next time I install something on a phone. I don't want to have that Yeah, female aliens. Yeah, simp aliens Talk about girls now. I already talked about girls.  It's just talking about like Guys who are mad at girls like My opinion on women is the same thing that every normie has a Has on women, you know what I mean? It's like They're part of the universe. They're part of your universe and people pretending that like they're not I don't know They're just gonna live without them and pretend that they don't care like I mean a good point of comparison like people on 4chan um Used to make fun of that girl. Um What's her name like lani mulnar or something like that?    You missed that one. Oh, well Okay, so andre says, uh, I would like to read your critique of reason paper, but the link is dead. Could you please share it again? Uh, maybe I should put that up on my blog Yeah, I'll I'll remember to do that. I need to redo some stuff on my website Welcome to the two people still watching Uh Yeah Let's see how long this one lasts. Why do I even do that? Um Well, it's it's like been green for like 10 seconds now.  So I tried installing it twice on my x2 20 yesterday with half success Well, won't we're wrong if something went wrong. Tell me about it. Email it to me Don't say it here because I won't see it. There are too many comments um Turn down quality. I mean, it's not going to make a difference when it it it goes out entirely. It's not that it's loading uh low Uh, and my my chat here isn't downloading. I like I'm just losing total connection All right. Why do I even bother?  Um, I'll just check last donations and Call it quits call it quits because I'm sick of uh dealing with this. Yeah, I didn't I didn't think that internet got this bad during the rain Uh Can you put what you're currently reading on your website? I'm not reading anything right now Uh Okay, five dollars from annie says can you explain erbit to a moron or just your thoughts on it? I don't get it Um, I don't use erbit. I've been like I'm always I've always been meaning to get one Um, but I think the general idea is like the internet is so freaking complicated and stupid and sub ideal And like people don't have their own internet property That erbit is basically building like a new layer on top of it that eventually replaces all the other stupid stuff because it can operate on its own Uh setting and like the idea like I don't know fully how everything works But it's supposed to put more individual control in people's Like it's kind of the equivalent of hosting your own website. You actually have a time It's not like social media when you're on someone else's platform Urban is supposed to make it more peer-to-peer now I don't know everything about how erbit works and again, I haven't gotten into it, but that's I mean that's like the the elevator speech that they will usually give um So Uh, so let me check, um donations Uh, yeah, I don't have any more
