How I made over $300K from a simple open-source side project using dual licensing.

In the last three years, I made over $300K from a simple JavaScript library called lightGallery using dual licensing. Here is everything you need to know about monetizing your open-source project using dual licensing.

The above recording by #SustainablePopulationAustralia (SPA) helicopters over topics and goes deep. It talks about the need to support greater #equality, a #circularEconomy, the need for #RightToRepair and to fight #stateCapture and the #MilitaryIndustrialComplex and #weaponsIndustry, especailly out of the #USA.

Rodney does suggest a govt can #printMoney as a way to solve problems, which is fundamentally flawed.

Embracing #bitcoin can *trigger* the change we need!

Having said all that, there is no bitcoin or monero without secure and ethical computing systems, and people who can think.

As we speak very corrupt fascists #printMoney to work on methods of undermining even #computers. They seem adament in making #GeneralComputing a radical, fringe act, while producing daily #FUDD (an added 'd' for distraction).

We must all strive to educate, while securing and maintaining general computing and the software running on the general computer.

SBF white house meetings 2 months before FTX collapse exposed | Cryptopolitan

At least four times in 2022, former FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried visited with government representatives at the White House, including one meeting that apparently took place only two months before his crypto company collapsed. Most of the encounters were made public in visitor logs, which the White House posts every month. According to the records,

Here's a salient:

"You see the #UnitedStates, for example. They decided to get into two new #wars just in the last couple of months. Of course, that is because they can just #printMoney. If they actually had to pay for #theWars they would never get in these wars, but they just print their way in."

It seems that people who just want to ensure decent #housing today are, at every opportunity (ie. opportunistically), out-competed by #rentseekers that pile multiple #dwellings on a block with no #restorative, private outdoor space.

Our #Australian govt and #legacyMedia have been active #perpetrators of this #sociopathy

It needs to stop. We thought covid would bring these issues into focus but they are doubling-down on #distraction as they #printMoney for themselves.

That's okay.

We retooted it for a minute but then remembered that there is a lot of #misinformation being pumped out at the moment. So we removed the toot until we had something concrete.

We've come across false under-reported statistics on deaths by #USpolice and thought it was legitimate until #LeeCamp set things straight.

We all need to be vigilant.

The debates are being framed so people don't question the #corporatists/#owningClass who #printMoney for themselves during #COVID19.
