Typography nerds: I want a compact font for annotations like in this figure. The one used here is "Humanst521 Cn BT", but it's non-free. Can someone suggest a free alternative, that's ~equally good looking.

Thought I'd try the ebook landscape and bought a Kobo. It's depressing. Store silos, cloud-only, DRM. What a complete mess. How can people put up with this bullshit?

Bitcoin scales *inwards*, by doing more with less. It's progress is absolutely astonishing. From @bitcoinoptech newletter.

The local malls are now required to "screen" people. So an elderly security guard sits in a chair by the door with an ill-fitting masks, and asks you if you have any covid symptoms or have been travelling. They have no way of verifying any of that.

Something tells me this is getting more elderly security guards infected than anything else...

Public health is a scam. I mean that quite literally: they know this nonsense is harmful. But theatre fools the voting public into paying their salary.

Lol, BitPay is so hilariously useless.

For research purposes I actually went through that nonsense. They wanted a photo of my passport (NOT a scan!), a selfie which had to be taken on my phone (uploading a photo was NOT good enough), and of course my address and date of birth.

...and after all that nonsense, the invoice timed out, so I couldn't pay anyway. So I don't know if they still do the payment protocol nonsense - BitPay is such a joke that they probably do. 😂

I can't be the only I've thinking that corporations putting some of their liquidity into #Bitcoin because it helps their stock price means they will panic and dump hard as stockholders scream in the next bear market? IOW, they'll behave just like retail before them, and we're still very much boom & bust cycles

(Hodlers don't care, ofc)
