NEW: Bitcoin educator Andreas Antonopoulos says he will stop producing livestreams and new content due to health issues. Antonopoulos previously said he has been suffering from debilitating migraines and has tried nearly every treatment available, but nothing has successfully stopped them.

how i imagine having a sentient toothbrush

When people start being able to manually cure their own cancer with AI they’re going to start having some very big questions about why the medical establishment hasn’t been able to figure that one out And then about a week later they’re going to kill every doctor in the world

And this is how sheer coincidence and a bit of laziness end up helping my research. What you’re looking at here is nothing more than the liquid from a stone-softening batch I made back in December—basically, waterglass. The store-bought kind doesn’t do this nice, gelatinous thing. It just shrinks up and dries out. I’ve never seen it take on this kind of jelly-like form before. But this one—just look at the color—isn’t pure water glass. It’s got other minerals in it, left over from the cooking process. And check out the end of the video to see what it turned into after a month sitting in the pitcher! As for what it’s good for—don’t ask. It’s just one of those phenomena, and we’re happy it exists.

Hello everyone! It’s peer review time again! With this step-by-step “Stone Softening” video, the Peer Review period is officially open. Phew! It took me a while! Over the past few weeks, I didn’t just randomly post “CAST!” There were two reasons for that. One was that I simply didn’t have the time to post or respond to people properly because I was working full throttle on this problem. So why didn’t I just stay quiet? That’s the second reason. I couldn’t stay silent while, for the sake of the video, I went through the entire cycle—from melting stone to recasting—twenty-eight times. Sorry, but I really do have a point. CAST! In this video, you can see the full cycle—from “stone softening” to stone casting. A closed loop. I could have done it using only ancient methods and tools if I lived in intact Peru. This isn’t a “trust me bro” thing—watch the whole thing, and you’ll understand. Well, that’s the end of another mystery. That’s how it is. Peace to its ashes. Huge stones, hundreds of tons, cast, and done. The heaviest object the ancient Peruvian Indians had to lift was a bucket. Sure, I know the road toward Ollantaytambo is decorated with massive stones. There are a few on the mountainside too. Yes, that’s true. But from now on I wouldn’t ask how they carried them down from the quarry (they didn’t). Instead, I’d ask: isn’t the stone’s binder accidentally amorphous silicon dioxide (aka glass)? Because it totally is. “Stone softening” brings these feats down from a superhuman level to something easily doable. It's just masonry work, sorry. Again: this isn’t an opinion. This is a working technology—check out the video. I’m not interested in naysayers’ opinions because they’re wrong. Bye! So, who’s joining me for the peer review? Let's GO!
