Really cool dude.

Really great interview - long as usual for a Lex Fridman’s podcast [ 3hrs ]
Rob Reid: The Existential Threat of Engineered Viruses and Lab Leaks | Lex Fridman Podcast [193]
Former Google engineer Vijay Boyapati talks inflation, the Austrian school of economics, and his new book on bitcoin. [ ~1hr interview ]
During the 2008 presidential election, Vijay Boyapati quit his job as an engineer at Google to campaign for Ron Paul in New Hampshire. A few years after that, he discovered bitcoin, and in 2018 he published an essay on Medium titled “The Bullish Case for Bitcoin,” which got widespread attention and was translated into more than 20 languages.
Boyapati, an Australian native who now lives in the Pacific Northwest, launched a fundraiser on Kickstarter to expand the essay into a book, and it was released at the star-studded 2021 Bitcoin Conference, which was held in early June in Miami.
Reason caught up with Boyapati in Miami to talk about inflation, how bitcoin fits with the Austrian school of economics, his libertarian origin story, and what he thinks has to happen for bitcoin to finally become the new global monetary standard.
They’ll need to do a video on the David Irvine and the Safe Network at some point. 
I’ve been interested in solar power towers for some time, this version looks like a winner as they are industrializing the production and set-up process.
The history of the solar neutrino problem; how it was solved; and the mystery that remains.
Really great talk between Adam Curry and Michael Malice!
Original MTV VJ, announcer, and cohost of the No Agenda podcast, Adam Curry joins Michael this week for a discussion on Michael’s pending move to Austin, what Americans get wrong most about their own country, the blue-pilled deflection of labeling something a conspiracy theory by default, the crucial importance of having a discussion about man-made viruses, how to explain the pervasive influence of the CIA to a blue-pilled person, the depths to which the corporate media sank during the Clinton administration, plus Adam’s quintessential story about meeting Prince, and so much more!
It’s certainly reasonable to hate on the actions/words of some particularly annoying billionaires … But when a State does it, the hypocrisy reaches absurd heights and has a chilling effect on entrepreneurship and innovation. Keep in mind that in 20-50 years a billion dollars is going to be a poverty level income thanks to government controlled central banks anyway.
Why China’s Billionaires are Terrified - From Jack Ma to Wang Xing, countless billionaires end up in jail, disappeared, dead and more, all because of Xi Jinping’s ultimate control on “corruption”.
Cry me a river.
“Oh noes - if I work hard, study and develop my ideas and its successful and I dont pay my taxes and totally distort the market trough my monopoly then in 20 years the nasty nasty govt might come and take a small portion of it away - think I’ll just lie n my scratcher instead and go to my dead end job as per usual”" said no innovator ever.

Other news sources may well be available but do they have the guts to tell the story? Do your own research
Co-inventor of mRNA tech is sounding the alarm. So why isn’t this headline news?
I thought about putting this in one of the covid threads, but this video is really about censorship. I’ve commented here many times about how left-wing and censorship prone Wikipedia is - What’s happened to Dr. Malone is a clear example. Wikipedia is controlled by the oligarchy, completely untrustworthy as a info source and a waste of space IMO. Of course, Wikipedia isn’t alone here. The corporate media are almost all complicit.
Alt-link if youtube takes the above video down:
Damned pesky socialists… geezzabrekfurfuxxsake.
its their turn
Nice one, Chris. Wrong, but nice
I wish there were folk who were balanced and not excited extremist sounding. It’s all too much and may be true, but put forward as an excited “I am a genius” never works for me. Also talk fast give no time to think is all way to hard to take as considered.
I guess we each have our own ways of inputting information. I listen to video’s sped up 1.3x as too slow for me [ edit: you can also slow down youtube video’s easily enough in the settings of the video ]… But I plow through a lot of things in a day - some of which isn’t so good. The point of this post was to simply to show that wikipedia is compromised (as many here trust it) and you can look up and verify what she is saying in the video easy enough.
Personally, I enjoy “whatherface’s” videos and I feel after having seen many of them that she is reasonable and balanced - but that is just my perspective of course. Ultimately if you can’t take the time or effort to verify the facts, then I think you have no reason to complain either way. I walk away from many posts of others on social media if I don’t want to go down the rabbit hole - as complaining about the info they are putting up, is a form of social shaming and hence silencing of dissent - a form of censorship all on it own.
Those that post things that repeatedly offend my ears (and there are a lot), I just block. That may seem harsh to some, but it is the one tool that we all have that doesn’t censor the individual’s speech and instead is a direct personal choice not to listen to that individual.
For sure…YouTube is clearly much more trustworthy than Wikipedia… 
Youtube censors a lot too … The difference is that youtube doesn’t edit it’s users video’s (it just deletes them). To gain balance you have to do the work yourself - so one probably needs to have a lot of various sources - I am on five video platforms and many forums and social media.
On video platforms, blogs, and social media, I can weigh (through repeated research on their work) an individual to an extent that I am satisfied. I can look up the info and verify it myself. Wikipedia though is used as a primary source by many and they re-edit everything all the time. Some trust wikipedia as they think it’s “open source” - but it’s really a top down hierarchy (as any organization is) and the people leading it, IMO, support government and corporate agendas.
It’s frustrating. I know that many just want to have an authority they can trust. But in the end if you want to get closer to real answers for yourself, then you have to do the work yourself.
Youtube is used as a primary source just as frequently as Wiki…by message board users. Anybody who knows how to do actual research knows that Wiki is not a legit primary source.
