FreeSchool=Co-Op+Friendship🔁? @freeschool@qoto.org

So I want to apologise because the name or system Bitcoin (or whatever) can be a good/bad/mixed thing but 100% I like some of the educational messages which unites many things even as separate components (usually indicating it's well made)... this also includes growing people (growing educational thinking) which is in line with my main goals of getting people to realise some basic components needed in life and without them almost death or starvation...

I've put some picture attached to this message...

THE REST BELOW IS THE LONG VERSION
DO NOT READ UNLESS YOU LOVE HEARING MY POINTS! DISCLAIMER DONE!

So even if it's only 'notions' of these 'Bitcoin' things and if aren't perfect (or whatever problem or misconception make it imperfect) still nothing is perfect and what has been achieved in 12+ years (and even last 1 year saving protest after protest and people in wars etc) is nothing short of amazing... AND BATTLE-TESTED.
There's real metric in that away from the main matrix!
... but yes I still leave thought it's not 100% and I'm not gagga for it... but sometimes <100% is enough maybe and the thinking gives good signal of that... (at least I'm getting used to this idea if results are consistent then it's good and governments that passive-aggressively attack, take oxygen out of rooms, leave people to freeze in -40 conditions, arrange for disable bank accounts of #TruckersForFreedom2022 peaceful protests really deserve to go for all their immorality for simple peaceful stuff)

Some of the use-cases during war, and for holding value between people have been nothing short of BATTLE-tested vs. whole governments and have happened in real life just this yea and on-going...

SO is it just hype... all hype....?

AND THEN sometimes does hype matter if people unite with similar mentality...medium-long term? 12 years of botcoin people snowballing... and anyway all is going to hell pretty much fast, so no need speed it up but also feels we had 0 reply until bitcoin and were letting things go anyway due to the other teams speeding up without our checks...- FEEL FREE TO SAY WHAT ELSE YOU THINK IS HITTING HARD LIKE BITCOIN
AND NOT GOV'S THAT WILL MOVE GOAL POSTS AGAIN BECAUSE ***THEY CONTROL IT AND CAN EVEN EACH THING / SIDE !!!!****
....BUT NOT #BITCOIN !)

Is there another bad trick in store for us later - possible by the roots might have been the purest in Bitcoin .... We all will learn again I'm sure but sticking to stuff not in man's control exactly 100% could be good when tested like this!
(feel free to answer!)

The main reason to post was NOTHING ELSE seems to have given the quality of education (judging on what I have seen from everyone non-bitcoin included)... some nice sentiments of what not to do (which is good) but not practical solutions unless it's software (mostly am writing this fast)... but also please send me anyone else that has seen such a crowd for this kind of specific education / message frequency or quality in basic text and picture, audio, just lots of things...

So I'm not all in, well I'm all-in life more than anything but maybe Bitcoin has displaced already the mainstream and can do more whether it's sea shells or whatever people believe in... which I personally think Bit and coin is misleading with but then as more of a store of value I can see it... and ANY real money will take energy to store (or make) so it can be better to 'waste' in electricity instead of physical coins IF... IF... government can't get their hands on it so much... which is worth it x10000% in many ways as it gets less hijacked (this is a very basic version and perhaps controversial thing and too short to mention more but just starting I think helps to explore money overall too which Bitcoin does naturally as many people don't know :( )

Even if it was the solution would you be too much in 'hating' mode to go for it with 2 hands and try or always pot-shot from distance?

I'm still on the learning journey so no apology for 'looking into Bitcoin' and to be honest if your advertising message / phrases / real-use cases were like Bitcoin crowd or their videos then also I would listen but nothing is as compelling for education, for replacing money though doesn't mean I don't listen or watch other stuff... all is needed

Lots of concrete things, transparent ideas and people checking at least....

Bitcoin's sub-points has BOOSTED learning and mentality and even THE practical hope (not just hope or staying in depression or waiting for the next corporate evil using our cry for their new plans)...

so for that I'm enjoying Bitcoin...
There are lots of pictures but these are my best attached (not pics of the speakers or talks, mostly the principles, sayings or component parts to what think works in general too or even separately to bitcoin)

For example the 'Self-fulfilling prophecy' in the picture... YES people can do that if they repeat bad or good enough...
Same as just being inside doom and gloom cycle this can be exactly with people hyping up something else and not remaining in crying mode,,, bitcoin or anything anyone believes in as something can be self-fulfilling by continuing that line... and with others could be also that way.. and in another respect like "fake it until you make it" also can have surprising effect as a lots of exceptions or nuances in +/- spectrum exists.

Generally for me, where believing in people is the road to success (and Bitcoiners are doing that tangibly...) then overall that is perhaps my ideal EVEN without money or Bitcoin actually, BUT WE MAYBE NEED a bridge to my 'goodwill for all' ideal by getting rid of (bankrupting) bastard governments spinning their own business and for then to go down in shoes sizes or 20 first for a small boot to have on our faces... (when we stop funding them)
So tactically when everyone else getting off money we can get on something else /// releasing next stages of life! Because until people need to change or have less fake money, likely chances are most won't (why do something you don't need to right now?)

Hasn't it been enough that #banks support the wars and Governments with it?!
BOOST IF IT'S TIME FOR CHANGE!

Anyway my best pictures so far filtered from this Mastodon account:
https://bitcoinhackers.org/@bitcoinmagazine/media

1. Free and Free Software story (how it regularly might not work)

2. ADVERTISING SOLUTION AWARENESS EDUCATIONAL WEBRING FOR FREE SOFTWARE!

1. 1. Free and Free Software story
My thoughts on what I thought about for a while + copy and paste of the main point from another discussion which reminded me of the dynamic and says it fairly well

So I am thinking in realm of doing "Free" which hasn't worked well for a lot of us or scraps the barrel often enough too close (as input or finances) and since FREE also in my ethos and even my name then it's good for me to study it too with others doing things free and unhappy.... recently someone else WHILE ALSO knowing that is our ethos to almost die from our own freedom efforts and eventually I hope people can do things more from love not money... so I'm not thinking about charging either but here is one real story / testimony specific to a website with similar-enough dynamics to show what I was thinking basically that things even increase in cost at the same time if you become popular so it's less manageable often if growing...

" This is a reminder to pay for services you depend on. Per the Pinboard founder's post:

> I love free software and could not have built my site without it.
But free web services are not like free software. If your free software project suddenly gets popular, you gain resources: testers, developers and people willing to pitch in. If your free website takes off, you lose resources. Your time is spent firefighting and your money all goes to the nice people at Linode.

> Like a service? Make them charge you or show you ads. If they won't do it, clone them and do it yourself. Soon you'll be the only game in town! "

https://blog.pinboard.in/2011/12/don_t_be_a_free_user/

So as an equation I think it captured something true there that I was thinking about for a while and although I don't advocate the opposite either... just the middle is often not clear or non-existent probably you've seen that some of world most popular json and other stuff is held up by 2 people often or lots of stories of how it's not working (perhaps they don't know how to ask also)
AND THEN it's also political anyway (i.e. money = political so people don't give because they don't agree with money / often costs to pay/ generally we all don't want to give for what we are forced to pay governments back to with others as less priority
AND we like the advantages of what is replicable (similar to what copy & paste is) although still not escaping paying bills for other stuff which also is extortion in cities and stupid to pay for (sorry people in the country simply don't have to pay stupid prices based on leveraging each others human needs as a demand - RENT PAYING IS A TERRIBLE THING FOR WHAT IS USUALLY PAID ALREADY) - we try our best without money and eventually gets lower and lower IF NOT HAVING RICH DADDIES AND MOMMIES OR RICH KIDS THEMSELVES PAYING US AS PHILANTHROPY or something balancing the money injustice at the fat cat level instead of expecting small cats to constantly pay... and pay even more if it gets popular! (not always this true or dramatic, and can stay small but it's tempting is to blow money when you have since that's the system... and American company size is from vulture capitalism / venture capitalism
etc)

2. ADVERTISING SOLUTION

AWARENESS EDUCATIONAL WEBRING FOR FREE SOFTWARE!

I actually like the idea of optional ads done in the right way if there was a simple list for me to click (nothing even in software needed)
I could choose when I fancied to pick from their list of stuff and anyway I probably am only 10 years later... so to give eyeballs to what I already liked as keywords or even / train / filter keywords is not much of an ethical problem unless you *bozos* put it on youtube / google
*just wanted to say bozos that for some reason* and keep this fun... yes unless you bozos put it youtube then peertube would be part of it but like I said even a list is ok and you'll see the view count shoot up and even some sales!

I feel humanly I could give peopel now using this way by adding contact back, feedback, even things that could go into advertising content!
DIDN'T PLAN TO WRITE THIS BUT UNITES THE FACT THAT PLEBS / NON-DEVS ARE LACKING PLACE IN FREESOFT SO THIS COULD SOLVE THAT BY GIVING TO THE ADVERTISING PART AT LEAST... oh yeah finally I got some idea to relate to you people!

If people could unite people at the same time using those keywords, ads, work or connecting other free people using as Adverts then I'd click all day and it doesn't have to be 100% related to the soft either!

Enough to have the same principles as the usual FSF stuff and use Free Soft's own advertising ring policy or own disclaimer. With you policiing and members policing the ring or badge of quality (or some other way pictured) it will show things in a more organised way ?

Like back in the say when people were just clicking rock music websites or whatever on a webring (was powerful discovery) so imagine if similar with a good button picture or even better a page of banner pictures to click on simple list in Mastodon... well consider me a customer / consumer of such things and even able to give my excellent ideas.... excuse me just spilt my milk)

MY ADVERTISING EQUATION IS BASICALLY
Advertising = useful info + a ton of options what to watch
= education ....yes?
(and dare I say more money / click-throughs and other forms of kudos? Even if I was buying I could type "I saw the Mastodon advert" so you don't need to so click through scam-looking urls- we're mostly honest here)

3. GRANTS AND EU TANGENT - BASICALLY TAKING MONEY FROM WRONG PEOPLE AGAIN

Grants and European Union are not always going to keep you guys a float and there is a reason why they are are paying you like hire guns / hands (and not keeping you a float in the first place)
Always about giving $ and then TAKING back more from others or for nasty reasons later in the end of getting control / research / using the bods and geeks they buy like any others... and then shut the poor artists out... forgive the digression

IN SUMMARY - Do a advertising webring yourselves and dance in the % cuts of Freedom hardware and software
Give 99% to me and I'll give 100% back :)
WE WANT TO BUY BUT MOST OF US HAVE NO IDEA WHERE OR WHAT IS WORTH INVESTING IN.
AND THIS TIES IN BETTER PAYMENT PLATFORMS (please list as it's not so popular here according to my feed, probably one called Librepay or something... LINKS!?!)

HAPPY TO TALK TO SOMEONE
LOL THIS GUY DOESN'T SOUND TRUSTABLE WANTING TO TALK....

*Ahem* This is my mastodon account, do not contact me or give me things to do for free as all free people are questionable in not playing the fiat ponzi scheme
(this reverse psychology but also why free doesn't work in the fiat dominated mindset)

Let's play best we can and accept each other more than our governing establishments.... you frankly don't care as much as I do!

#freesoftware #advertising #fsf #FOSS #FLOSS #Libre #FreeSoftware #OpenSource

#education #awareness #voluntary watching! #webring #affiliation #federation #money
More education, purchases, setups etc within ourselves mostly (+ while steady reaching others)

SOMETHING WITH A BIT MORE TEETH PEOPLE AND ACTIVELY SHOWING IT!

Cult and Culture - A Topic you can listen or speak about for those interested in audio conversation together... (listening also ok and nothing too long or EXIT anytime!)... :)

I'd love to hear anyone who feels there are in a Cult or what it means to be part of Culture!

When it's 5 / 6 of us will decide a day and time to chat and do a 'go-around' format (chatting in a circle one at a time and then together)
Maybe doing it regularly for those who want with different people each week / month

( whenever there is 'feeling' for it just message! )

The idea is to practice hearing and speaking with other people's version or vision and lightly discussing together with mixed people from all around the world!! Casual fun thinking of the topics and words - in this topic what Cult and Culture means to you!! :D

Thanks for your interest and reply.

How to improve people's reading length without looking down upon them by suggesting a technique or two?

THE REST IS FOR THOSE WHO WON'T FORGET THE ABOVE IS THE MAIN QUESTION OR MANAGE THEMSELF IN READING

So I'm not expecting 1000 pages to be read magically after giving anyone a tip... but something they can stick to... even by doing a few paragraphs at a time and revisiting it the same day etc?
Just not to ditch things?

How to not make them feel bad that other people can literally FLY THROUGH reading things from a conversation perspective even if it's a few pages like someone was speaking...

I can image reading text on a mobile maybe isn't suited (reading on a desktop is super-easy so maybe reading is hard for those people, scrolling perhaps humiliating them?)

I can read like someone in front of me speaking... lots of talk, easy... and then I just take it from there ? AND I find it easy to ask and expect it to be left or right of the target (can't expect 100%)...

Text is not heavy for me or I'm 100% able to engage and be interested.. as long as it's a fairly real original person talking themselves... it's amazing for me someone is writing (not always amazing but usually!)

How to show others this - that it's just text but from a human and while might have emotions it doesn't have to get to boiling point or head hurting it you can just see it as a puzzle or taking the order of points / etc... re-arranging things etc... then re-order them or saying points what didn't work for you...
Acting much like a puzzle? and not a headache?

Just needs a bit of time and will for the right ambience... and puzzling it.

Seems to help if people who might be called TLDR-syndrome people can read more... especially when the 'new' concepts or 'other human' interactions can actually motivate people and build upon it

The pressure of using money-only ways and getting it exclusively from the top of Governments with Private Banks creates a downwards pressure which then goes into all the things we love to do, a bit like a syringe sucking the life out of it as for survival...

But if we are using it to profit from people by pushing it eventually to our kids to use it - it seems slightly immoral / misaligned / maligned before teens or during and even as adults!.... Something like soft-trafficking people by those above us or in control of the money / decisions which doesn't sit well for future children who don't know what's going or the existing 'adults' (still unknowing what's going on) being bought and sold. #HumanTrafficking I guess...

Somehow to make for dogs nice places or find them nice 'owners' (caretakers) where they / we can live and do our thing.

Humans are much the same. But being owned isn't great for us... and managing harmony is the tough part which maybe being owned skips.

Probably having nice basic earthly things to do for humans (to maintain our own habitat and all inside it) and then learning new things and having options can allow us to build our mind too while always having nature in mind... nature is more closer to us at the beginning and at the end.

Not really a gender-based question - as Hero has multi-meaning so I mean it mostly for these definitions just to make it more obvious:

- someone who fights for a cause
- ANY principal character in a play, movie, novel or poem
- a being of great strength and courage celebrated for bold exploits; often the offspring of a mortal and a god

!!!! 1 Word Many Meanings !!!!

Feel free to add pictures for answers...

So THE KEY is how far do you see the beauty? and can you keep that in focus more than the distractions?

Can you switch back into thinking the world is amazing again by seeing beauty in your work or others instead of digging into the same scars or problem people and many eyesores from far away?

Being aware of bad while still trying to dance positively around it I think is a way to deal with it... naturally hard as everything has to degrade / decompose eventually... hard to accept that but part of composting can be nice growth too ! Combating things while ideally still with appreciation going out smiling at each other somewhat lovingly...

I think we need more caring people and that involves teaching them, holding their hand to go to places of thought... probably the hard stuff nobody wants to do and is not doing! Or is too hard in text so human voice / 2 way presentation does better.
-------------------------------
THAT'S IT NO NEED TO READ IF YOU CAN'T STAND IT,
-------------------------------
The title doesn't mean I hate everything else... but that priority is more caring people and warmer interaction 1 by 1 r group-work INSIDE whatever work you're doing as there is little point making something but more having more caring people at the end...

Again ----- no need read more.
Rest is just for me and some that like / can read.

I PROMOTE growing brains more than many other work... because eventually things like communication and caring is included in everything and within people's thinking. So in everything that is worth more than anything and everything else will be anyway improved after that.

But just being a sniper in pure-maths or computing + low ability / low practice in communication / not managing anger and emotions / not having sapience / compassion / understanding eliminates a lot of skills = less of a caring / human-transferable skill.

Things in the list above I feel / see as really underestimated / untaught institutionally but what is actually part of bridges to all things more human. (Human rights etc which needs humans to be part of the justice - it's not going to be only computer software needed for going out and enforcing rights or going out to stop it physically!)

Without brains everything starts to fall apart or get abuse. Users or developers are lop-sided in tech and also abusing it at the same time / not looking AND social improvement during their work. A lot is computer repetition.

Everything developed for people with less brains (methodology in learning) is at risk of breaking themselves or just handing more stuff for people to do things recklessly or faster.
More ammo to those BigBoys BigTech that simply print the money or have the guns... and you don't.

----------------------------------------
SO 2 BIG DIVIDES IN THIS CONTEXT:
----------------------------------------

1st divide = user brains including - anyone ignoring the social improvement side and calling others 'stupid' (that you are not educating yourself or part of the program) means more of the same / people that don't care enough about much.

2nd divide is monetary resources etc. So users innocently will just focus on money (not understanding it) and fat cats will rake in the cash and further divides / cause more wars (fotware and enforcement HARDware)

If you have neither these 2... and you're not educating

BE VERY CAREFUL HOW MANY CATS YOU LET OUT OF THE BAG!

My thinking is really to improve people's ability to communicate and improve those lines connecting to everything else, AND then quality in work also comes... otherwise it's more of the same careless use / people not switching and hijacking of good ideas by fat cats toward what you see in the videos attached!...
