That's basically every other snack I was given as a child 😂

Looking at it now... 🤢


I prefer a pair of 22 inch monitors to either side of a central 24 inch screen.

This is for work though, I'm not much of a gamer anymore.

Stay humble and stack seconds.

Time is the most important asset. Do what you can to earn more of it.


I know everybody is dunking on the random governor who decided that she could just wave her hand and unilaterally suspend any right she dislikes simply by hissing the word "emergency," but the problem is that she's only wrong if another political force — the courts, politics, disobedience, or Locke's old Appeal to Heaven — proves her wrong. Enforcing the limits of official power isn't some American $currentYear problem, it's a recurring issue throughout history.

The question is why we're suddenly seeing the authoritarian instinct activating so much more openly — and frequently. In prior decades, they had to be cute in how they went about it, often requiring laws and lies. Now they're remarkably comfortable simply stating "because of the 'emergency,' you can no longer {travel | donate | engage in commerce | read | communicate | carry}," and that's the whole of it.

The next question is what you're going to do about it.


I bought my first sats in early '18.

I thought I was too late to the party to make much difference.

5 years goes by in a blink. I've never been so happy to have been proven wrong.


Love it. Hope your day is as enjoyable as it is productive!

I'm trying to force myself awake to start the day. Playing some catch-up with work, meeting a buddy for a drink, grocery shopping, and movie night with my wife.

What are your plans for the day?

Your keys can be memorized, set in paper or metal and never touch a signing device/hww, it's true.

But how would you safely sign transactions using that knowledge if not through a device like this?

I'm not going to enter my private key into an Internet connected device in order to broadcast a transaction, that's for sure.


I just botched an hour long presentation and QA session in front of 40 people. And it was recorded.

Just goes to show you can be great at your job but still stumble. Nothing left to do but identify what went wrong and make changes so that it doesn't happen again.

Sometimes progress is painful 🤙


All day every day 🤝


First season of Heroes and Lie to Me

Archer season 1 is hilarious.

The Expanse, Firefly, Battlestar Galactica, and Farscape are excellent sci-fi shows - each with their own angle on the genre.

Some older shows I used to love but I'm not sure how well they've aged:

Sliders
Babylon 5
X-files


Coldcard does, I think passport does as well, not sure about others I haven't really explored signing devices to a great extent. Coldcard is what I've used for years.


Anyone like #cloudstr?

Well, I tried to quote post and failed 🤣


I dig. I love cloudgazing.

Yeah, like you could have a seed phrase written down and stored in a safe. It may or may not have funds on it. It's a decoy that you can give up while appearing to comply with an attacker.

Similarly, you can set up a duress wallet on some hardware wallets. You would have a normal PIN, and a duress PIN that, when entered, accesses a different seed that you can have funds on to fool an attacker. You would have to determine how much to put into the duress wallet to give it an appearance of authenticity, enough to appease an attacker and make them go away none the wiser.


I would say that it protects your Bitcoin, not you. If someone is physically threatening you, you will not be able to give them your keys if the multisig is geographically separated. Multisig just creates an additional necessary access requirement. It's excellent security but it has its own risks, drawbacks, and limitations.

If the attacker doesn't know what multisig means or doesn't believe you, you might be in a bad spot.

Using a duress wallet or a decoy seed would be a complimentary risk management strategy so that you can 'give them what they want' without compromising your entire stack.


The absurdity that is the bull market is getting close. Grifters can feel it. I'm already looking forward to the next bear 😮💨


It's leftist deconstructionism at its finest. Remove the meaning from language, and it can be shaped to accommodate any fiction no matter how absurd.


Fascinating. I've been taking DHEA for a while now, this might end up replacing it. Mildly skeptical it's as beneficial as the video claims, so more research is warranted.

If I don't find any red flags I'll fuck around and find out for myself, and will report back.

How cool is it that we, the few that have discovered Bitcoin and nostr early, basically get to chill and meme and build while we wait for the rest of the world to catch on?


Right there with you. We will make it out the other side though 💪
