   @timo21 You absolutely did make a negative blanket statement about all rich people in the USA:

   The USA rich have dissociated themselves from the common good. A country is a shared endeavor of which they are have withdrawn themselves.

   Trades people still can afford a boat, assuming its a skilled trade. highly trained welders for example make 6 figures in the USA, more than enough for a boat.

   The current environment is because the rich have dissociated themselves from the USA, are no longer interested in the common good. They want to get rid of social security, for instance.

   Some rich want to get rid of social security, some dont, there you go making blanked statements again about the rich.

   No the problem arent “the rich”, the problem is trying to lump everyone into a group that isnt you and blame them.

   No matter how much you want to reduce the world to us vs them it just isnt the reality and the world is far more nuanced than the picture your trying to paint, and its not a healthy perspective IMO.

   To be clear I have nothing against you personally, I think you mean well. But this is a harmful take, and a bad one.

   ah, OMG. ICE.
   Well, every profession has different uses of acronyms, LOL.

   I'm not an engineer. Still, I understand and concur.
   Windpower for big ships is also a (niche) solution.

   How much: every 10th of a degree counts IMO.

   To be sure:
   I believe even the rate of the change ist presently still accelerating.
   We need an emergency break.

   >Baking crypto so deeply into your protocol and its culture does not end well IMO.

   To be fair, it's not baked into the protocol. Some protocol extensions provide support for Lightning payments, but as far as I can tell they are optional.
   Still, community is very pro-Bitcoin and that definitely has big impact on protocol and ecosystem development.

   >I am curious what you mean with your fundamental flaw \#1. Doesn't any good UX design hide protocol details from the user? Like, grandma doesn't need to know how TCP/IP works.

   In federated systems (APub, Email, Matrix, XMPP...) user is forced to choose an instance. Perhaps counter-intuitively, this inconvenience increases decentralization. The problem of mega-instances still exists, but it is not as severe as it could be. Even email remains somewhat decentralized after many years of GMail domination.
   In blockchain-inspired social networks servers/nodes are usually second-class citizens, and I think Nostr belongs to the same category. Most of the development happens at the client side, and developers who want to provide the best UX can even create a client that completely hides the existence of servers/nodes/relays. Client with best UX wins, and invariably it's just a website (see https://iris.to/ for example).
