RT Nick Szabo (@NickSzabo4)Iran now exercises veto power over shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, and it will likely retain this control for decades to come.It currently can exercise this control from the very long shoreline it has in the region. Ultimately it can exercise this control from hundreds of thousands of square miles of terrain dotted by hidden tunnels and caves, using missiles and drones endlessly resupplied by parts from China. ...

Desde que tengo memoria, los pies no se me están quietos. Bailar para mí siempre ha sido casi como una necesidad. Por eso desde que estaba muy chiquita yo entré a clases de ballet y un tiempo después quise algo diferente, así que también entré a clases de jazz y me encantaban mis clases de jazz.El maestro Eric era un maestro buena onda, algo joven, por lo tanto relajado, para nada gritón ni regañón como la maestra de Valet, ¿no. Eric era muy divertido. Eric nos dejaba jugar, nos dejaba bailar como quisiéram ...
Why visibility rarely means control | Ajinkya Deshmukh | TEDxSIUHinjewadi
TEDx Talks· 2026-03-04 16:18
I'll begin with something familiar. Suppose there is a figure in your mind whom you think is really popular whom you think appears online on TV screens everywhere that is visible to you. Someone who is big, someone who is grand and someone who you think is powerful.So is visibility really directly proportional to being powerful. And do you really think visibility actually means control. We live in a world wherein we are meant to see that if you are visible, you lead. If you are powerful, you lead.And most i ...

Loyalty cards. Everyone's got five. And I actually forget to bring mine to the supermarket half the time.I mean, if you have to create one, you have to stand in line.

And besides, how many data breaches have there been in recent years.Aren't you sick of getting thousands of spam emails because your data has end up somewhere you rather it not be.

Do you think we're becoming easier to control than any society in history. >> Yes. >> Suicide is obviously a very dark example, but there are far more normal regular examples of AI influencing behavior.I mean, I can't imagine the scale we're on now where I've got, you know, relatives that aren't very techsavvy that use chat GPT almost as a verb. So, it's influencing behavior already at a mass scale. Do you think we're becoming easier to control than any society in history.>> Yes. Two reasons. One is that th ...

RT Sama Hoole (@SamaHoole)675 AD, Japan. Emperor Tenmu bans meat consumption. Not for health. Not for religion initially. For control.The ban lasts 1,200 years. Twelve centuries of restricted animal protein in a nation that had been eating wild boar, deer, and waterfowl for millennia.The official justification evolved: Buddhism prohibits killing. Meat is impure. Consumption of four-legged animals offends the gods.The real reason was simpler: protein access creates independence. Hunting requires no landlord. ...

RT lucid.⛩️ (@lucidzk)it’s wildly easier to explain Zcash because its value is human, not necessarily just technical.people know what it feels like to be watched. people know what it feels like to want control. people understand what it feels like been powerless against predatory govts. people know the instinct to protect what’s theirs.Zcash simply meets those instincts with cryptography.owning shielded ZEC is owning something that’s actually yours, not a bank vault, not a custody agreement, but value no in ...
