I enjoy both of these things. Skipping leg day is a soy-boy move.


Why wouldn't someone be happy when their chosen method of savings is becoming worth more food on the table or a goes further to keeping the roof over their head? 1 sat = 1 sat, but what about the goods and services I need to survive and thrive? It's not irrelevant.


Yes it is. I did this last year. I believe there is a Bitcoin Sessions tutorial on it as well.

Saylor thinks you are a paranoid crypto anarchist if you hold your own keys and don't trust the government.

He has always been a bad actor, I will repeat it as many times as necessary.

Got my answer. Thanks!


It seems like when fees go up, my miner you guys have in Paraguay goes down. It has been at a 0 hash rate for days now and I can't get an answer. What's going on?

Just read this. Great book and a solid reminder. I'm constantly having to remind myself that if I can't control it, accept it and stop needlessly stressing.


Looking forward to getting the Gamma!

Classic Bayshore 😆


High enough for me to give it a go! Sometimes I stare at my BitAxe trying to will it to win a block 🤣


Not a dumbass at all! All these zeros are a lot, lol. You had the balls to put information out there and risk being wrong. That's not nothing!


To be fair, the odds are still shit even when compared to winning the jackpot in a lottery. My math shows that currently with a single 625 GH/s Bitaxe and 580 EH/s network hashrate, odds are something around 1 in 928,000,000.


I'm not sure about your numbers. I'm not smart enough to know these things off the top of my head, but it looks like your conversion from EH/s to H/s is off by a lot of zeros. According to a couple of hashrate converters, the current 581 EH/s is 581,000,000,000,000,000,000 H/s. Six commas vs the 18 you used. Am I missing something? I'm probably wrong.


Looking forward to getting one from you!

I was a bitcoiner when I showed up, but I must say that the food influence was unexpected (but very welcomed) lol


With all the amazing work you've done, I'd be very interested to see the implementation.


Awesome explanation. Thanks for taking the time to put it all into writing with support.


I need to try this!


Yes sir! You gave me the intro some time ago.


Thank you! I wouldn't say it would be impossible for me to start a business, but I don't have any particular expertise in a product or service area that I can think of providing. I was an aircraft mechanic in the military and just started working in government contract compliance as a civilian with a lot to learn.


Good on you for prioritizing balance and taking action. That takes a lot of courage. I'm struggling with that now and feel like I'm missing out on my kid's childhood. But I also need to provide.

Probably option 3


Almost as if it could have been planned that way.


Thinking the same thing.


Looks like they came from one of the sides, so my suspicions could very well be unsubstantiated. We'll see what comes of it.


Politicians do shady shit. Why fake it? Attention and headlines. Is it fake? I have no idea. But like I said, missed shots hit something and there was a crowd of people behind him.


That's what I mean. I would expect missed shots to hit something behind the target... But it grabs headlines.


I'm suspicious. Nobody in the crowd behind or around him got hit?


Also carbs


I did this during my time there too. It's a beautiful view at the top!


I found something online that has worked for me. Put bacon on baking sheet (optionally on a rack on the baking sheet for extra crispness). Put in oven. Set to 425. By the time it is heated to the temperature, the bacon should be done depending on thickness.


I thought this was set up to only go to the relay(s) you have set in "private relays." Am I mistaken?


Me. I needed this. Thank you for the reminder.


It's a beautiful area. One of my favorite places in the state.


I'm sorry for your loss, sir.


I'm not knowledgeable in this area at all (yet), but I'm in Central Florida as well and just put in a mango and a tangerine tree. Apparently they both grow well in our climate.


Agreed


Finally graduated college today. Even though I'm in my mid-thirties, it feels good to have that done.

I use umbrel for non-bitcoin things and Start9 for my node. I like the quantity that Umbrel has for an easy home server and the security that Start9 has for Bitcoin software.


Strike tracks and reports to the govt as required, but we have to compile everything from any other sources, come with with the cost basis and calculate gains using the FIFO method. It's a huge pain.


If you don't give a basis, I believe they assume it to be $0. I've tried the automated software, but a good old fashioned spreadsheet does the job better.


Well damn. This was my backup wallet in case my node messed up.


Code is speech.


Yes.


Accountants need to stay in their lane! Investment advice is not it.


Yes. Drives me nuts.


I use Boltz exchnage for this. You put in the address you want the btc to go to and pay the swap lightning invoice so the swap only involves one on chain transaction. Can be done the other way around as well.


I think I'm partial to HODL DIAMOND DICK


I run a node. I believe your tutorials helped me in my lightning journey. Are you saying that the insane fees are a result of the halving and not degens and their shitcoin scams? The fees are already falling compared to last night.


It's not about NGU. It's about quantity goods and services go up. Thinking purely about number of sats you receive is missing the point of a noninflationary asset IMO.


Perfect phrasing, lol


Working for time freedom


Robosats?


Same. "The books are better" crowds will always try to ruin book-based shows and movies. They CAN both be good.


For real. Gotta replace my roof pretty soon. All those potential sats going to the literal roof over my head.

1. Taiwan earthquake – latest news: Death toll rises to 10 as island rocked by over 300 ‘terrifying’ aftershocks: More than 1,000 people have sustained injuries in the biggest earthquake recorded on the island in 25 years, while over 40 people remained trapped on Thursday. Over 300 aftershocks since Wednesday morning have forced “terrified” people on the island to sleep in tents outside their houses or in emergency shelters. (IndependentUK)

2. Taiwan condemns 'shameless' China's thanks for global sympathy on quake: China's Deputy Permanent Representative to the U.N., Geng Shuang told the UN, "We thank the international community for its expressions of sympathy and concern,", which immediately angered Taiwan. This shows China has no goodwill towards Taiwan, the Taiwan ministry added. (Reuters)

2. Israel is using artificial intelligence to help pick bombing targets in Gaza, report says: The Israeli military has been using artificial intelligence to help identify bombing targets in Gaza, according to an investigation by +972 Magazine and Local Call, citing six Israeli intelligence officials involved in the alleged program – who also allege that human review of the suggested targets was cursory at best. The officials said that the AI-based tool was called “Lavender” and was known to have a 10% error rate. (CNN)

-US Events-
1. Deadly storms and tornadoes leave a path of destruction from Georgia to Illinois: At least three people were killed and several were injured after a powerful storm system spawned tornadoes and damaging storms from the South to the Ohio Valley. (CNN)

2. Man who used megaphone to lead attack on Capitol police sentenced to more than 7 years in prison: A Washington state man who used a megaphone to orchestrate a mob's attack on police officers guarding the U.S. Capitol during the Jan. 6, 2021, riot was sentenced on Wednesday to more than seven years in prison. Johnatakis led other rioters on a charge against a police line, "barked commands" over his megaphone and shouted step-by-step directions for overpowering officers, the judge said. (CBS)

-Regulatory and Legal-

-Institutional Concerns-
1. Morgan Stanley wants to beat UBS to become first Bitcoin ETF bank: Morgan Stanley is hoping to beat UBS in becoming the first wirehouse to fully approve the Bitcoin ETF. “Several sources confirm that Morgan Stanley is set to approve Bitcoin ETFs on its platform in the next two weeks,” an insider wrote on March 26. (Cointelegraph) (AC-Although this report is speculative, the groundwork is laid for such a move, and banks have publicly stated that it is their desire to offer BTC ETFs)

2. Hedge Funds Hold Record Bearish Bitcoin Bets, Data Show: Hedge funds boosted their net short positions in the Chicago Mercantile Exchange's (CME) standard bitcoin futures contracts to 16,102. That's the most since the futures began trading in late 2017, according to CFTC figures published last week. The record buildup in short positions likely reflects hedge funds' renewed interest in the carry trade. (CoinDesk) (AC-Common among many investment funds, carry trade is a counter-trade to protect investments from downside action acting as a type of insurance)

-Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDC)-
1. Seven central banks in BIS Project Agora to tokenize cross border payments: Today, the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) Innovation Hub unveiled Project Agorá, to tokenize cross border payments. This is the first project in line with its concept of a Unified Ledger. It seeks to unite seven central banks and commercial banks on a shared, programmable infrastructure to facilitate cross-border transactions. The project will encompass most of the major currencies, including the USD, Euro, GBP, and Yen. Consequently, the participating central banks are the Bank of France, Bank of Japan, Bank of Korea, Bank of Mexico, Swiss National Bank, Bank of England, and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.

It really sucks getting turned down for a job because I have "too much experience". 😮💨

I'm trying to move forward in my career. If you need an expert web developer who thinks outside the box and can make amazing things happen, hit me up and I'll send over my CV/résumé.

Friends boost friends 🫂🔄


That makes total sense. Very logical.


By your logic, it would be the road builder's fault.

Well this is fucked


100%! I love my life. I'm just looking forward to having ample time to enjoy it with my family.


Air Force here too, man. The VA is a dumpster fire. Definitely reach out to Bitcoin Veterans. They are full if resources. Have you tried to work with a VA lawyer? I'm in the process of doing that now since my first round didn't go as well as it should have.


I worked for the state once. I was in the Air Force.

In 2012, They took my appendix when they didn't need to.

In 2016, they vaccine injured me with a round of shots my doc recommended. I got a letter in the mail saying it was a bad batch, but it was completely safe and I should come get another round. Nah, doc.

 I got automimmune issues from that, and they worsened from the poisoned food. I left the military in 2017. The VA ignored me repeatedly because they don't believe in vaccine injuries.

I can't eat gluten, dairy, rice, or seed oils without heart palpitations and reactions that feel like im dying these days

Anyways, I began contracting for that same Air Force again in 2018. They tried to poke everyone again in 2020. I said no and I lost my job from saying no in December 2021. I haven't worked in 2.5 years.

This whole time I've been spending $900-1200 cuckbucks a month on meat and fruit alone to avoid inflammation and heal my body. All from my savings. I sold my house in late 2022 and my stack is down immensely in the last two years.

They poisoned me... They poisoned 19 out of 20 aisles of the grocery store for an autoimmune person like me. They poisoned my health. They've drained my wealth. They've taken my livelihood and my normalcy.

When I view the big picture, it all seems so deeply personal. They wanna ban and control meat consumption when it is my only food... They want to stop us from saving in Bitcoin when it has been my literal saving grace... They say they want to close the "escape hatches".

When I tell you that this is the hill I will die on, I fucking mean it. There is no choice for me anymore. I've crossed the Rubicon. I will live free or die.


For now just for my lightning address. I'm not overly paranoid, but I do appreciate privacy from the general public.


I haven't had any luck finding a tutorial on setting up the webserver. I'm kinda learning as I go. At the moment I have an address that uses Fiatjaf's server with my domain. Do you know of any "easy to follow" resources?


Easy! Go online, order a Pixel, flash GrapheneOS (or one of the other ironically non-google systems for the google phone), download Amethyst with Obtainium from Github, and lose the Apple slave tech 😆

Mostly joking. I know it's a hard ecosystem to get out of once you're in. I don't know anything about the Apple clients, though.


Amethyst does a good job of this.


To connect to your node, I like Zeus. Their integrated node seems to work well too. Mutiny is popular, but I had my channel force close for seemingly no reason and got rugged (never got those sats back). Otherwise, I've had no issues with Phoenix wallet as a backup to my personal node.

But seeing as how popular they are, I'd guess you've tried them and don't like them.

Pye was convicted of murdering his ex-girlfriend, Alicia Yarbrough, in 1993. His execution is the first execution since 2020. (WSB-Atlanta)

2. 3 corrections officers wounded after ambush at Boise hospital springs inmate from custody: Corrections officers were preparing to take Skylar Meade back to the Idaho Maximum Security Institution – about 11 miles away – when “an unknown suspect attacked and fired at the officers, striking two of them,” Winegar said. Meade and the suspected shooter got into a gray four-door sedan, a 2020 Honda Civic, and fled the area just before police officers arrived, according to the chief. (CNN)

3. FBI: ‘Little rascals’ trio, ages 11, 12 and 16, arrested for robbing a Houston bank: The FBI’s Houston office says they were wanted for robbing a Wells Fargo bank in the Greenspoint area of north Houston on March 14. The FBI posted an image of the trio on X, showing all three of them wearing hoodies inside the bank’s lobby. The boys passed a threatening note to a teller before fleeing on foot with an undisclosed amount of cash. The parents of two of the boys identified them after their photos were released, while a third boy was recognized by a law enforcement officer following a fight. (AP)

-Regulatory and Legal-

They accuse him of laundering $1.2 billion. Pertsev’s attorney confirmed the prosecutors’ intent to charge his client. According to Dutch prosecutors, while a crypto-mixing service is not “inherently illegal,” using it to launder criminal assets is punishable. (BitcoinCom)

-Institutional Concerns-
1. Grayscale CEO Confirms Fees Will Reduce As Outflows Cross $12 Billion: In a recent interview, Grayscale’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Michael Sonnenshein, disclosed to CNBC that the fees for the company’s Spot Bitcoin ETF (GBTC) will decrease over time. (Bitcoinist) (AC-There is certainly a reason for Grayscale to have left their fees almost a full point higher than other competitors and the resultant exodus from GBTC. The dumping of GBTC and selling of underlying bitcoin have kept the price relatively stable while institutions and whales have been buying bitcoin or the ETFs. The reason for the policy may be as benign as to capture high fees for a little longer or as nefarious as cooperation with other institutions to allow key clients to buy before the halving and supply drive the bitcoin price much higher.)

-Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDC)-
1. Sweden’s central bank says ‘problems may arise’ in offline CBDC payments: Sweden’s central bank, Riksbank, cautioned in its recent research note on CBDCs about the potential risks associated with unsynchronized data in offline payments.

There are certainly pockets of optimism and hope, and tribes are uniting globally to fight for freedom and common sense. This year the election cycle will unveil much of this 5GW war and its effect on all of us. In the meantime, changes can be made locally, networks built globally, and defense of rational freedoms fought wherever we can.

Lurking can be eye opening too! The people of nostr have exposed me to a lot. Books, programs, companies, groups, events, etc that I would never have known otherwise. I generally don't have a lot to say, but I enjoy learning from smart people.


I might be missing it, but where would I pick it up from? And could I just pay you sats in person instead of filling out my address info on the website?


Maybe I'm looking at it wrong and missing the connection.


Is that really a fair comparison? A version of the protocol itself vs one of many methods of self custody security?


Amethyst plus Amber for signing. Then you can keep your nsec in one place and out of the client. More native apps should use it. I'm not sure why they don't.


Sorry I missed this. I use Amethyst almost exclusively. I try Primal occasionally, but never see a reason to switch.

I see ya. I doubt any actual Bitcoiner would go along with that scenario. But what do I know?

Took the little one to a farm, swam in the pool, and Stacked more Sats today. It was a good day for future Devin.


Used to be a shitty excuse to get sloppy drunk. Now it's my kid's birthday. Much more wholesome these days.


I would think you can, though it isn't something I've looked into, so I'd do a little digging on that. Maybe someone here can answer that question with more certainty.


Honestly, if you are considering moving back to Apple anyway, you may as well give it a shot first. Try for a few weeks or so and if it's not your thing, no harm done.


Its my daily driver and works without issue.


I use a Pixel with GrapheneOS and love it. You don't really need to change the way you use it if you are just looking for a way to keep big brother Goog off your back.


The judge just ruled from the bench.

Further findings of fraud etc will come in the written judgment.

Welcome to law.

1. Binance.US Slashed Two-Thirds of Its Workforce as Revenue Plunged After SEC Lawsuit: The SEC's effort last year to freeze BinanceUS’ operations via a Temporary Restraining Order led to mass layoffs at the company as revenue imploded and it struggled with market trust, one of its executives said during a court deposition. (Coindesk)

2. SEC Bolsters Coinbase Lawsuit with Insider Trading Ruling: As Coinbase awaits a ruling on motions to dismiss the SEC lawsuit against it, the agency is attempting to wield a default judgment in an insider trading case involving a former Coinbase employee.

US healthcare hack creates hard choices: Nearly two weeks after the ransomware attack on UnitedHealth's Change Healthcare unit that has disrupted claims processing across the U.S., doctors are beginning to face a no win choice - stop treating patients or stop paying staff. The attack, which was disclosed on Feb. 21, shut down the system that many doctors depend on to verify insurance coverage, file claims and get paid, sparking a campaign by hospitals and doctors for the U.S. government to provide financial relief as it did during the COVID-19 pandemic. (Reuters) (AC-News of the hack was spread quickly following the hack but the effects are still very real for healthcare in the US.

1. Fear(0)/Greed(100) Index: 75/100 (Down 15 pts)

Analyst Comments (AC): Following the recent runup on BTC price action, a 15% retracement while touching the former ATH yesterday is a reminder that many are still playing the buy low/sell high strategy of investing. As many HODLers have maintained a paradigm shift of investing by looking at Bitcoin a new hard asset, there are still those who affect price by manipulation or frequent buying and selling. It's a reminder that not all price action is fundamental demand/supply-based and many are still in the 'trader' or arbitrage mindset.

Man, I'd love to BTFD but I blew my load on a miner last week.


My opinion: When the opportunity cost of not spending is greater than that of spending. It depends on the individual, their situation, and their opportunities.


GM #gm


Slept right through it!


This man's face lights an unreasonable level of anger in me. Fuck Dimon and his corrupt crew of pedophiles.


I thought I was following, but just had to refollow. I've enjoyed the podcast but haven't had any real involvement. I'd love to change that, though.


#plebdads and #plebvets here


Sorry, bad wording on my part. I meant it doesn't help you much since you run a node.


You don't need the extra step. But for people who only know and use custodial lightning solutions, it's pretty cool and simple. I can appreciate the privacy add, too. I like the idea of a cheap "tumbler" between my purchase from Robosats and my node.


My first time interacting with enuts/cashu. It's pretty slick. Are there any mints that are more established/reliable than others?


Any plans for Amber support or something along those lines?


I saved this to get back and give it a go. The only issue I'm having is that in the LND Properties in Start9 the LND Connect REST URL goes straight from "...onion:8080" to the "macaroon=..." With the cert hex nowhere to be seen. Do you know where else I could find that hex?


You guys are awesome. Thank you for the free resource!


I'm glad to see https and backups are coming. Any ideas on when those will be released?


Why do you insist on using iPhones? Apple is denying your #bitcoin / #nostr app on their App Store and killing home screen web apps.

By purchasing their overpriced spyware devices, you are supporting an authoritarian company that does not respect your privacy or freedoms.

The choice to remain in the devil prison ecosystem is yours, so stop bitching and exit – switch to a GrapheneOS phone.

Thank you. I stacked more after seeing this 🫡


Sweet! I've got some more learning to do, lol. Bitcoin has really caused me to up my tech knowledge game. I had never assembeled a computer or touched CLI before I decided to run a node.


I used your YouTube tutorials to set up a full lightning node and they were extremely helpful. Thanks for putting in the time and effort to make those!


I've been running my lightning node on a NUC with relative reliability, but I'm definitely looking for ways to upgrade to prevent issues in the future.

As a starting point for my research, what does your Lightning Node setup look like as far as hardware is concerned?


I was very interested. But apparently I'm not welcome. I quit smoking over 10 years ago, but since I am still a *former* smoker, I guess I'm ruled out?


It's unfortunate that it needs to be one extreme or the other. Without insurance, a single significant incident would bankrupt most people because hospitals charge a shitload of money for a couple of Advil.


You may think this is only a small detail. We believe it's a big detail.

9 Dangers of Google’s Power

1) The government is their data customer, so you’ve lost your civil liberties.  Google can now act on the government’s behalf to do things that otherwise would be illegal

2) Supposedly you have a choice in this, but the more powerful they are, the harder it is to avoid.  How many reCaptchas are on essential websites?  Do a DNS lookup on employers’ emails, and you’ll find that you will truly struggle to get a job without it going to a Gmail server.  The employer having a vanity domain doesn’t change it being Gmail.

3) Google profited from covid’s stay-at-home work, so they are motivated to (and did) help politicians promote lockdowns by suppressing contrary information with the goal of preventing you from going outside.  For example, they literally took down Google docs from physicians presenting research critical of the government’s policies. [1]

4) Google search is the largest and most influential source of research for many, but also a US military cloud contractor.  That’s a conflict of interest for them to promote endless war.  As Julian Assange points out, during the Syrian civil war, they put John Kerry’s pro-intervention propaganda right below the front page’s search bar. [2] Why even wait till they search for Syria?  Get em now!  But no mention of Wikileaks cables showing the US encouraged ethnic violence to do regime change despite Assad making reforms.

5) While we’re on the subject of Wikileaks, guess what company John Podesta’s leaked emails were?  So people mouth off about Google cloud’s supposed security, but these are the same Democrats that insist that Wikileaks was a Russian hack and not an organic inside leak like Assange says it is.  So either Gmail is insecure or your political worldview is wrong.  Which is it?

6) Having your data stored with Google is a huge risk you’ll lose it.  For example a father uploaded a picture to send to a physician of his son’s groin medical issue.  Google’s AI labeled it child porn, froze his accounts, and notified the police. [3] Even after the police and physician both cleared him of wrong-doing and wrote letters, Google still refused to give his accounts back to him.  “He was cut off not only from his Google email but also his mobile provider and Google Fi – and he also lost all of his emails, contacts, photos and even his phone number.” [3] Even if we ignore the Orwellian automated notification of the police based on your private data, why can’t he get it back after the police completely clear him of wrong-doing?

7) You don’t really own things.  As our previous article on this issue covered, Google can see ALL activity on stock Androids, such as 2FA or passwords.  This means that often Google can access accounts off their platforms.  Not your keys, not your coins.  Remember the World Economic forum saying?  “You will own nothing and be happy... because we have your 2FA and passwords”

8) Google isn’t even really a fully private company.  It openly had one of the largest revolving doors of staff with the White House in history. [4]  And as journalist James Corrbett points out, there are deep-rooted connections between the CIA’s money and Google. [5]  Corbett’s article points to a 2006 interview, with ex-CIA agent Robert David Steele, who said “I think Google took money from the CIA when it was poor and it was starting up,” Steele said in the interview. “They’ve been together for quite a while.” [5]

Many companies SELL to government.  But Google is one of the few that get favors FROM the NSA.  According to the Washington Post, Google enlisted the NSA to help it ward off cyberattacks. [6] Since when is the NSA supposed to be the IT department for a PRIVATE company?!

9)  Given the massive bias, conservatives and libertarians can’t even functionally communicate on top of a corrupt infrastructure. Youtube, organic search, paid advertising, Email, docs, maps, and more.

And what benefit do you get in return for using Gmail over other providers?  Nothing, email can cross communicate.  You’re a bitch slave to the empire for free

I see. My addressiss getalby because I am moving and my node is going offline. But I never used the integrated node/wallet as my zap address, so I can't speak to that.


I'm curious too. Zeus has been working great for me.


Thanks! Thats what I was look into. I've seen that some are compatible with Gadgetbridge. Do you know if the Garmin Connect app is overly invasive for the newer watches? Or can any of them work relatively well with Gadgetbridge? I've looked online to see the permissions, etc, but I'm not sure which ones are absolutely needed for intended functionality. I appreciate the tips!


Just pulled the trigger on it today. Once you said Android Auto is coming, I knew it was time. Now I just need to figure out my watch situation.


I've tested it on the pixel tablet and like it a lot. I've been back and forth on buying the Pixel 8 with some of my sats while they have holiday discounts to get all the way out of the Google ecosystem.


I have been pretty agnostic to ordinals. But if they are in fact paying 1/4 of the price for the block space they take compared to other transactions, it seems like an issue.


This seems like the most logical response. When exploits are discovered, they get corrected. It doesn't mean the entire system is fundamentally broken. Exploits have been discovered and corrected in the protocol many times over the years. Why is this one so different?


It looks like one of my peers closed a channel on me with a 11.2 sat/vB fee rate for the closing transaction. Currently mempools are purging <12.9 sat/vB. I don't see a way to bump the fee. What comes next?

Awesome! Last time I tried that was a no-go if I recall correctly. Time to get sovereign while tx fees are less ridiculous.


I would love to use my zeuspay lnurl on my external node for zaps, but ran into routing issues that hung them up. I thought that strange since I have large channels open to well connected nodes with plenty of inbound liquidity. But that aside, I want to bypass that issue all together by having a channel open directly to Olympus. Is there any way to make that happen?


This is a great take. I've had fun learning and building my node(s), but there is definitely a level of crazy needed lol


Why is robosats an issue for us the the US? I use it regularly without issue and the premiums are actually fairly competitive relative to other non-kyc options. But I believe you can also purchase on Strike and Kraken via LN as well if you need to add outbound liquidity. I may very well be missing something that you're seeing, though.


Would watch for sure. I've dabbled in mixers a small amount but haven't used them regularly because of the fees.

My favorite episode so far. I hadn't heard of Paul before but have since started listening to his content and have been moving toward an animal based diet. Plus started buying meat, organs, and dairy my from local farms.

The crazy thing is that most of my life I have avoided real dairy because I thought I was lactose intolerant. Those problems started when I was a young teenager and I'm 35 now. But I thought, "why not give the raw stuff a shot? Maybe I'll have a rough day, but at least I'll know I tried." Dude... Zero stomach issues.

Changed my life. Thank you.


Running away to Costa Rica forever sounds pretty nice right now.


I use Start9 for my Bitcoin needs and Umbrel for my other home server needs including the Nostr relay. I have them running on separate always on machines, though. I accidentally gained a collection of mini PCs because I like experimenting with stuff 😅 I'm also running a self-compiled node to compare reliability and ease of use.


GM! I am trying to open a 2.1m sat private channel to Olympus to make sure my zaps make it to my personal node. For some reason I have one sitting that can't find a route even though I'm connected to some solid nodes. But I'm getting a rejection. Is there a minimum channel size or some other restriction preventing it?


Thank you for this! I used ChatGPT to paraphrase and submitted a comment as well.


100% down when I can take a fiat mining break. Still stuck in the hampster wheel for a while longer.


I love everything you just said, lol. My wife and I have had serious conversations about taking the steps to get out from under it. I've traveled quite a bit and the mentality that "we have it better than anyone else" is utter nonsense.


I'll dig into the IRC Section to be sure, but my understanding is that the $600 rule targets businesses. Not the general public sending money to each other. As for the $10k with banks, its pretty easy to stay below that number. I'm not talking about tax evasion, so if I convert $10k+ to fiat for some reason, I'm not concerned with reporting the income. But my holdings until that point are my business.


Do you ever run into issues with pihole breaking sites? I've been hesitant because there are times when I have to turn off my ad blocker to access something (for school or something unavoidable).


The bank knows you sent someone money. But they don't know why. Either way, Zelle sucks.


I send cash from strike and get KYC free bitcoin. Unless, of course, someone cared enough and had the authority to get my transaction details from Strike and match it to the transaction.


Banks flag it as potential fraud and lock the account until you confirm your details over the phone.


This happened to me often. Super annoying. Now I only use Strike as my payment method and don't have those issues.


Maybe that's what I need for my slicing problem 😅


I'm listening to The New Confessions of an Economic Hitman right now (seemingly similar topic) and it is amazing. I'll have to add this one to my list.


The world lost the goodest boy yesterday. I've had Brody since he was a little pup 15 years ago. He was happy and unconditionally loving all the way through the end. He seemed like an immortal ball of energy until the last few days, and even then he kept bouncing back. We would joke that he would live forever and nothing could take him down. My regret is that my wife and daughter witnessed him in his final moments (unexpected) while I was in class and I wasn't there to say goodbye. We're crushed, but that's the price we pay for being so blessed to have these amazing creatures in our lives.

But here I am, 35 years old with a wife and kid and 2 semesters away from graduating with a degree in accounting.

Well, friends. Today it was my turn in the barrel. I got laid off from my fiat job along with most of my coworkers.

I’m not interested in returning to that world again, and want to build the next phase of my career in bitcoin.

Is this a thing we can do now? I have 8.0 as well.


As it stands now (not accounting for future innovations) the issues you mention are definitely roadblocks. Additionally, if everyone self-custodies (as one should) and creates their own channels, it would take too long for all of the on-chain channel opening transactions to be confirmed.

But there are very smart people working on solutions for these problems. I haven't looked into this BIP at all yet, though I will be doing some research on it now, but it could be a possible answer based on what I see here.


Something I need to look into. My liquid cooler just crapped out on me.

From a fellow sober pleb, I agree 100%. I almost ruined my life with that stuff. Addiction is a bitch.
