Orphan blocks happen when two blocks are mined at the same time. The block that gets a further block added to it will become the legitimate chain, and the other block becomes an orphan block.

It's the reason why Satochi said to wait for 6 confirmations to be absolutely sure your transactions confirm with near zero risk of being orphaned.

Having a chain recorg after one block happens.  Having a chain recorg after 6 blocks is improbable.


Trans boxers and Chinese drug cheats. The Olympics is so corrupt.  The IOC is a criminal organization.

If you're an honest competitor, I feel sorry for you having waisted your time training, and then get beaten by drug cheats.

And they'll stay corrupt if you keep watching.


Soft and squishy.


Use Zeus or Phoenix wallet for self custody. They're free to use.

You will still need some bitcoin to setup a Zeus, or Phoenix, or any other self custody lightning wallet.  They don't charge subscription fees.  You just pay the normal on-chain fees to miners to open channels.

Use a free custodial wallet like Wallet of Satochi until you have some Bitcoin.

For ten or twenty bucks worth, or just starting out, just use a free custodial wallet.


What's this monthly subscription fee OP mentioned?

How does self custody have subscription fees?


> - Node force close channel without my explicit approval

Force closures don't ask for approval. There's nothing you can do to stop a force close. It's a function of the lightning network and nothing to do with Umbrel.

Most force closes happen because your peer (or you) becomes unresponsive while an HTLC is in flight. This HTLC then has to be 'settled', meaning the channel gets force closed so the payment can be settled on-chain.


Cloudflare has that as a service. It doesn't even cost anything.  I think it might even be on by default if you're using their file hosting services.

Includes automatic reporting to law enforcement and follow up by them so you don't have to get involved.

Sometimes, some things are best left to multinational corporations.


They're not as good at it as they used to be.  They can't control the narrative they way the could before everyone was carrying a video camera with live access to the Internet.

Cloudflare tunnel.  Add the Cloudflare app from the Umbrel store.  Create free account at Cloudflare.  Setup "Access" tunnel.  It's the "Access" option in the sidebar menu.


So true...

That's not very many people. Usually, you get millions protesting when a government is bad. A few dozen people protesting are like climate activists...just ratbags.


It's a bit quite because everyone's gone to the Bitcoin conference.


Yes.


TOR nuts to give away. I first collected these using brave browser in Tor mode. Now I use minibits with orbit and it works great.

It's worth figuring out and using CashU with TOR because it gives you some serious privacy.

That makes sense.  Lightning self custody does have a cost. Custodial wallets are free to setup and get started.


Well, see now, that's the thing about nostr. If you're a right wing MAGA nutbag, you'll be muted by most people very quickly which is way more effective than shadowbanning on Twitter.

With no algorithm like they have on Twitter that would push your conspiracy theories and racist, homophobic crazy rants on people, there's nothing like that on nostr.  Which is why you've been left all alone to yell at clouds.

I'll be muting you too now. You won't get notified that I've muted you, because it's nostr. I'll never, ever see your reply to this post.  This post will remain on your timeline forever, along with your unhinged, but ignored replies as a monument to how truly unliked you are as a human.

Maybe, just maybe some of your MAGA nutbag compadres will offer you some support, lol...who am I kidding. You MAGA nutbags hate each other as much as you hate the world.

Fun fact...88% of Trump supporters are divorced white males whose wives left them because they were losers.

Hello.

Plus, when Trump becomes president, he'll round up all the people who attended the conference, and seize their Bitcoin.


LNDg does a good job with automating fees.


I think you're attributing malace to obvious incompetence.


We have a bullion dealer where I live that you can exchange gold bullion, gold coins, silver, etc for Bitcoin with no KYC if under ten grand.


They are the only two that aren't just PWA crap.

At least with Amethyst you can use Amber signer and Citrine local relay so your drafts stay on your phone and don't get broadcast to the entire world and your nsec stays secure.

Having to enter your nsec into progressive web apps is a major secret risk.

https://github.com/greenart7c3/Amber

https://github.com/greenart7c3/Citrine


There's a cover up?


I'm fine. How are you?


The wallet in Primal is provided by Strike. You'll need to move all your sats out if you're going to use a different wallet.

If you use a different wallet but don't empty your Strike wallet, your sats are safe, you just have to turn on the Primal wallet again to get access to your sats  using the same nsec.

Technically, you can use two or more wallets with Primal by turning the Primal wallet on/off depending on which wallet you want to use. I personally wouldn't, because It'd be confusing and easy to stuff up.


#robosats


There's no algorithm. The most common complaint is lack of engagement.

People who are used to getting lots of engagement on other platforms by saying controversial things and have the algorithms do their work and push that shit out, are stunned when the same posts get no engagement here. And rage quit soon after.

Whereas, I just read a wonderful post showing how to make peach and ginger tea. It had lots of engagement.

Only posts that are interesting to real people work on nostr.

And cats. Nostr definitely loves photos of people's cats.

He used a security method called a password the spokesperson said.


Apart from pointing out the obvious risks with custodial wallets, do you have any original insights?  Do you have anything at all to add that hasn't already been said a million times before?

Do you crusade against all custodial wallets?  Do you warn people about the risks of using WoS or Alby?  What about  Primal building a custodial wallet in their nostr client that's on by default? You must have been outraged by that?  Compared to people choosing to use a mint, having a custodial solution thrust upon them must enrage you?

I'm sure you've made hundreds of posts before warning people about all of the evil custodial wallet providers waiting to rug pull everyone that dares to use them.


> We just need to make everyone aware of the custodial part.

I've already committed a whole five bucks worth of Bitcoin to CashU mints.

If I could zap that directly in Amethyst, as much as I like the minibits wallet I've been using, my lazy arse would definitely be using Amethyst CashU zaps.  Saves a click. Saves a few seconds of my time.  Instant recovery just by using my nsec, no need for seeds.  Simple. I like simple.

I still use legacy banking because paying my bills online is easier than getting in the car and driving to pay cash.

Sometimes, a little bit of custodial can more useful than the risk of losses for lazy arsed people like me that are willing to take the risk.


You can't even follow simple instructions and setup your nostr profile correctly. You shouldn't be giving any advice on technology ever.


But, that's not what centralized means though.

I guess you've never come across the concept of custodial wallets before.

Strike, Wallet of Satochi, Cash App, Alby, Primal, these are all custodial wallets that if they go down, or get seized by the government, your Bitcoin is gone

So, what exactly is the point you're trying to make?  That custodial wallets run the risk of being rug pulled or seized?

You're a bit late to the party with your ground breaking news. That fact is well understood by everyone. Well, except you it seems. You don't even know what centralized means.  Wallet of Satochi is centralized. Alby is centralized.

Liquid, Mutiny and CashU use a federated server model precisely so they are federated and not centralized like Alby, WoS, Strike etc.  By using federated severs across many countries, it greatly diminishes the risk of rug pulls and government seizures.


What does that have to do with what I asked?  I asked what you mean by centralized?


Centralized?

There's no mint to mint transfers in any way. Mints don't communicate with other mints, ever. Mints don't care if another mints tokens are valid or not.

Mints only do two things. They mint tokens after receiving a lightning payment. They melt tokens after paying a lightning invoice. The mint doesn't care where the lightning invoice has come from. And the mint isn't actually paying the invoice, the lightning node providing the collateral does. The mint only gets confirmation that the invoice has been paid, then it melts the tokens.

It doesn't matter to the mint if the lightning invoice you give it to pay is from bitrefill or another mint. It's just a lightning invoice, nothing more.

It also doesn't matter to the mint what you do with the tokens, it doesn't track them. The mint only knows if they've been redeemed, not who redeemed them.

When you redeem an ecash token, the mint just confirms that the tokens are valid, it doesn't know who they came from.  Whereas a lightning payment, always discloses the node ID where the payment came from.


Not just anonymity, no authentication system.  Ecash is the only way to transfer Bitcoin value, with no record of the transfer taking place.

You can't transfer Bitcoin on-chain if you can't connect to the network to broadcast your transactions to miners. You can't transfer Bitcoin via lightning unless your node can connect to my node either directly or routing via other nodes.

You can transfer ecash to me via nostr,  email, homing pigeon, Morse code, and I think someone has even done it using sound over a meshtastic network.


If I send you Bitcoin via lnbits, there's a record of that transaction that links my node node, to your node via a system that you had to authentic with.  The transaction may be obfuscated, but it's still recorded and logged.

If I send you Bitcoin via ecash, there's no record of any Bitcoin transfer between you and me.  The only transfers, were between mints. If you only connect to mints via Tor, there's nothing to link you to the payment.

You also don't need to create an account to use a mint. Because mints create bearer tokens only, there's no account system like in lnbits.  A mint has no way of knowing how many people posses the tokens it's minted.


Liquid is custodial. Lightning is not.

Federated, just means custody is shared. But it's still custodial.

Liquid is no different to the Mutiny wallet federated severs, or CashU federated mints.  Liquid custody is done by a bunch of exchanges that I wouldn't trust with my Bitcoin anyway.

I've put five bucks worth of Bitcoin into CashU mints which is more than I trust with Liquid.

My major concern with Liquid is the way they pretend they aren't custodial.  At least CashU mints don't pretend to be non-custodial.


Damn. I pay $5 for 10gb per week. And unused data rolls over. I have a couple of terabytes in my databank.


> All app developers must act to implement Data Saver,

Lol...never going to happen.

Data saver is garbage.

Google insisting that devs make everything compatible their amp servers so that Google can see everything you do, that's never going to happen.

Making Google the relay for everything that goes through your phone, never going to happen.

You can stop flogging that data saver dead horse.   Nostr will never be a Google data collection service.


Yeah, data saver won't help you with nostr.

When you're traveling abroad, why don't you just buy a local data only sim?  Use a cheap burner phone for your existing sim if your current phone can't use two sims but you still need to get  phone calls and SMS. Local data sims are almost always way cheaper than roaming charges.


Data saver on Android just sends all http requests to Google's AMP severs to get AMP versions of a website, which saves a little data while Google gets to see every Web page you visit.

Data saver doesn't work with web socket connections so none of the relay connectors in Amethyst will be using Google's AMP severs.


You're using a custodial wallet while making snide comments about a fee for service provider,  accusing them of wanting to be a banker?

Irony is so ironic.


I see that you use a custodial wallet. Why wouldn't you use a non-custodial wallet like Zeus?  Why would you prefer to give your Bitcoin to total strangers, rather than keep it safe yourself, in your custody?

I'm really keen to find out why you think giving your Bitcoin to total strangers is better than keeping your Bitcoin in your own possession. 😂


Eel bias is real.


Something important!


I'll bet you haven't given verita84 any Bitcoin because you don't trust him either?

Go on, prove me wrong and show everyone that you trust verita84 with your Bitcoin.  Show us a deposit before today's date.

No?  You don't trust verita84? You've never trusted him with your Bitcoin and you never will, is that correct?

If you don't trust verita84 with your Bitcoin, why should anyone else?


You just lied and tried to claim that your lnbits isn't custodial.  The difference is, your lies are easily proven to be lies.

#scammer #rugpulled


>
Its not like the bitcoin goes into my wallet you retard.

It's your lnbits. Lnbits is custodial and it goes into your node.

You are now a confirmed liar.

If you're going to try and lie and claim that lnbits isn't custodial, well, white Christian supremacy nutbags always lie.

LNBITS is custodial you lying scammer.

You can rug pull anyone that uses your lnbits at any time.


> Even though you are asshoe, I'd still welcome you on my platform

Well, that's reassuring. Like when Nazis told the Jews they were only showers and they should trust white supremacy Nazis because they never lie and can be completely trusted always.


But, you're spamming nostr trying to scam people into giving you their Bitcoin?  I guess you don't want competition?

What do you call a racist homophobic white supremacist that's spamming nostr trying to get people to give them their Bitcoin?

The answer is, well, you.


You still haven't answered my question. Would you rug pull a Satanist?

You god will cast your soul into the pits of hell for all eternity for helping a Satanist if you don't rug pull them, and you'll be a scammer if you do?

If you really believe in your god, you'll rug pull them. If you don't really believe in God or any of that superstitious nonsense, and just use Christianity as an excuse to be a racist homophobic and generally nasty person, you'll let them keep their bitcoin?

So, which is it?  Are you a true believer that will do what your god commands, or are you just another pretend Christian that doesn't believe any of that shit and commits mortal sins every day?


I guess none of them are Satan worshipers then?  Do you monitor their posts and zaps to make sure they're not gay?


MAGA is a lifestyle, and not limited to a country. We have them in my country.

Low IQ white Christian racist homophobic nutbags around the world have been emboldened and joined the MAGA experience.

To be MAGA, is to openly brag how you hate non-whites, non-christians, gays, Jews, and anyone that believes in democracy.

And then be stupid enough to beg people to give their Bitcoin to you.

The low IQ bit is definitely the defining trait of MAGA nutbags the world over.


Lol, you'd like that wouldn't you?  The last thing you want is someone like me that's going to point out that you're a white Christian racist, homophobic MAGA nutbag that's trying to scam people into giving you their Bitcoin.

You can call me all the names you want.

You can post all the memes you want.

It's never going to change the fact that you can't be trusted because you're a racist homophobic MAGA nutbag that will rug pull anyone you don't like?

After all, you would definitely rug pull me, wouldn't you?

#rugpulled #scammer


You seriously just went and created another npub just to say that?

Lol, I guess you've now realized that you've killed any chance of anyone every trusting you with their Bitcoin and you're getting desperate.

Idiot, you've also burnt the domain name. You can try and link it to a new npub, but, it's gone buddy.

You're a white supremacy MAGA nutbag that can't ever be trusted.  That's the path you're on. That's the path you've chosen.


Ahh yes, because posting a meme is definitely going to get people to trust you with their Bitcoin now.

I see you're using the Elon Musk business method he uses with Twitter by only appealing to white supremacy as the path to profitablity.

Maybe you can get all those Elon fans to trust you with their Bitcoin?

https://media.tenor.com/UvKaYaiEWtcAAAAM/haha-so.gif


Would you trust this person with your Bitcoin?

Go on, I dare you. Deposit Bitcoin with this clown, and then tell him you're a Satan worshiper and see how fast he he'll confiscate your Bitcoin.


I'm not the one trying to scam people into giving me their Bitcoin.

You don't know what rug pull means, do you?

How am I going to rug pull anyone?  I'm not trying to get people to use a scammy lnbits like you are.

You're the one telling people to trust you with their Bitcoin.

Those people need to know what sort of person you are.

You're a racist homophobic MAGA nutbag that can't be trusted. That's who you are.


> Trannies and Jews are welcome

So you can rug pull them? Lol, as if anyone would be stupid enough to trust a racist, homophobic MAGA nutbag like you with their Bitcoin.

What about Satan worshipers?  Won't your God punish you if you don't rug pull Satan worshipers?


Only MAGA white supremacists need apply. Anyone else will get #rugpulled.

verita84 finds out you're a Democrat, rug pull.

verita84 finds out you're gay, rug pull.

You say anything verita84 doesn't like, rug pull.

I dare anyone to trust this MAGA nutbag with their Bitcoin.


Irony is a white supremacist shilling their free speech relay that censors shit they don't like.

So, if you were to find out a transvestite was using your lnbits, would you rug pull them?

Why should anyone trust that you won't rug pull them because you don't like their politics, sexual orientation or skin colour?

And, the beauty of nostr over the typical white supremacy hangout, is you can't delete my post, or stop me from pointing out to everyone, the potential risk of trusting you with their Bitcoin.

#rugpulled #scammer


You can connect NWC to your node, but your entire family would be spending your Bitcoin.

You would still need lnbits to provide a separate wallet for each user.  Then use a separate NWC connection to each users lnbits wallet.

You can already do that with lnbits and it's lndhub plug-in for wallets that support lndhub connections.

There's a bounty posted for integrating NWC into lnbits currently.


To whomever posted the 100 sat #ecash #cashu token from a TOR mint...it worked.  I was able to claim the sats in my #minibits wallet.

I'm posting the same 100sat giveaway for someone else to try.

Remember, you can only claim this via Tor.  Don't use Tor Browser on Android, it won't persist the session and your tokens will disappear when you restart. Use minibits with orbit just to be sure.

Someone read The Handmaid's Tale and thought it was a good way to run a government.


It's a bearer token.  Works the same way as bearer bonds. The issuer of  the bond, a bank usually, is the custodian of the money, and will hand that money over to whomever cashes in the bond, no questions asked.

The CashU mint that minted the token, will melt it back to lightning, with no questions like KYC or email asked the way other custodial lightning wallets are required to now days.

You can't give someone lightning Bitcoin if they don't have a lightning wallet. You can give anyone Cashu Bitcoin as nothing more than a string of text.

To spend it, they go to cashu.me or nutstash.app and paste in the text, and they can immediately spend the Bitcoin via the lightning network.

Setting up a non-custodial lightning wallet, using Phoenix or Zeus and an LSP, still takes effort and a significant investment to make the setup cost worth it.

And custodial lightnings wallets are now requesting full KYC.

Cashu is an alternative to a KYC custodial lightning wallet.

Bearer tokens are just a tool that in certain situations, can be useful.

Ahh, ok. Well, there's another way using GitHub to host the file that's free. Lots of people just register a domain name then point it to GitHub. I'll dig up the instructions.


Hey Mike, for your nostr address to work, you need to create a  https://mikemonty.com/.well-known/lnurlp/nostr.json on your server that contains your npub in hex format.

The format for the file is

{
    "names": {
        "mike": "⁹9999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999"
    }
}


It doesn't solve anything.  Tools don't solve problems, people do. And #ecash is just a tool.

You can give someone that has never used bitcoin, a few pennies worth of ecash bitcoin to play with on the lightning network.

They can pay a lightning invoice. They can  send bitcoin to a lightning address. They can zap people on nostr with it. They can try out NWC using cashu.me. They can perhaps receive a zap or two and get that experience too.

They won't need to install any apps, do any KYC, or provide an email address before being allowed to use it.

And maybe, just maybe, they may think this whole Bitcoin lightning shit is pretty cool and start buying some Bitcoin themselves, set up a non-custodial lightning wallet etc, etc,etc.

It's not like anyone's talking about putting your life savings into ecash. However, it sure as hell is the easiest way for someone to use ten cents worth of bitcoin for the first time.

Your government might want that but I live in a country with a functioning democracy that has universal suffrage and preferential voting so I don't have that problem.


People who whine about stuff they get for free, never ever contribute anything.

People who appreciate stuff they get for free are the only ones that ever contribute to the improvement of stuff they get for free.

One group acts like petulant children, the other file bug reports. It's really that simple.


How about government protecting our privacy from being stolen by corporations for their profits.

Nope, because wss and ws listen on different ports the same way that http and https listen on different ports 80 and 443 respectively.

Someone would need to have intentionally setup a relay that wasn't encrypted so that anyone using the relay would have their IP address and other details available for the entire world to track.

The only way you can use a non secured socket 'ws' is with a  TOR encrypted tunnel which means the socket is still encrypted anyway.


No they won't work. The wss bit means it must be a secured socket connection the same way that https requires a secured connection or it will fail.

It has to fail. If the socket can't be encrypted because the encryption certificate isn't correct, you can't just default to having no encryption and continue working because that's more convenient.

Right wing Nazi bullshit.

If you're going to spread right wing Nazi bullshit, people should know exactly the sort of person you are before installing your software on their computers.

It's the same reason the vast majority of people will not install that other right wing Nazi Elon Musk software because he says exactly the same lies as you do.

So, anyone that doesn't trust Elon Musk, shouldn't trust you for exactly the same reasons. You both push Nazi Bullshit.


Come on, be a man an own that shit. So, you're a homophobe, so what? Just because, without exception, all homophobes are just homosexuals in denial. They hate themselves for being homosexual, and project that hatred to try and pretend that they aren't, deep down inside, queer.

And people really should know who they are dealing with before installing any software from someone like you.

That whole web of trust shit relies on trust, and honesty, which you have demonstrated that you have neither.  You're a liar. You willingly tell lies for no other reason other than to hurt people. What a piece of shit you are.

Could a gay person ever trust that you wouldn't push malware to them via your software because of your pathological hatred of gay people?

No, gay people would never ever trust you to not do something malicious to them.

And if gay people can't trust you, why should anyone?

Your web of trust rating is zero.


Building nos.social for straight people only. No gays allowed because Rabble is a homophobe.


You're a fucking liar, I wouldn't trust you with a bag of dog shit. You've already proven yourself as a liar. Nothing good has ever come from trusting a liar. Never.


Why don't you put a gay test in your software seeing as you hate gay people so much?

You are telling filthy lies about gay people, what other lies are you telling?  Got any backdoors in your software?  Liars can't ever be trusted. If you'll lie about one thing, you'll lie about everything because that's what liars do. Why should anyone trust a liar like you and install your software?  You're literally acting just like Elon Musk. You're a liar like Musk is.

Remember when MAGA kept demanding the Epstein list be released, and when it was, and Donald Trump was at the top of the list, suddenly they all STFU about the list?

Donald Trump is a convicted felon, rapist and frequent visitor to Epstein's Island. All things that every MAGA wants to do themselves, that's why they love Trump so much. He does the raping of women and children that they all want to do.


This bullshit is piled so high it rivals the best anti-vaxer conspiracy theories.

And then you get the anti-vaxer conspiracy theory nut jobs repeating this bullshit like the good little sheep they are. They cut and paste shit they don't understand then pat themselves on the back because they think that's how you become smart.

And the replies, I always love the responses because they'll immediately drop to personal attacks because they are uneducated and incapable of having a discussion about things they've never been educated about.


Anyone coughs within 30 meters of me and I start throwing rocks at them.

This entire story is a lie. There is no official government migration list that has yoga teachers on it.

No President can pardon anyone for state crimes. They can only pardon federal crimes. State crimes have to be pardoned by state Governor's and/or state Attorneys General.


All countries, societies and cultures have censorship. For instance, right wing MAGA people want all LGBTQ people silenced, rounded up and sent to conversion camps, litterly demanding all LGBTQ voices and writing be censored. Only their right wing hatred is allowed to be voiced, everything else they demand be censored and cancelled.

Hypocrisy at its finest.


The US Oligarchs don't care if it's Biden or Trump, it won't matter to them. Anyone but Bernie is all they care about. That's why the DNC rigged their selection process to favour Hillary over Bernie.

The DNC would rather lose the Presidential election,  than piss off the oligarchs that donate to the party.

And the GOP isn't any different.

As long as both parties keep selecting ineffectual puppets for their candidates, the real, unelected oligarchs that own the country can concentrate on controlling everything.

Repeating the same ideas made during the Weimar Republic is just history repeating itself.


Perhaps you misunderstood, you can't cure cancer. You can only prevent it. Cancer isn't a disease, it's the damage that's been done by, radiation, pollution, contamination, infections. You have to stop those causes of cancer, to stop cancer.

As I explained with the Cervical cancer example, cervical cancer can't be cured. If you have caught the virus, and the virus had damaged cells, those cells can never be cured.  You can only prevent the virus from infecting the cells.

There will never be a magic tablet you can take that'll cure lung cancer so that you can smoke as many cigarettes as you want.  If you don't want lung cancer, don't smoke and don't live within a hundred miles of a coal fired power generator, or near a major highway or train lines that still use diesel trains.

Ever wondered why country people have much healthier lungs than city people?


Cancers are caused by all sorts of things like radiation, heavy metals, even viruses.

For instance, it was discovered that cervical cancer was being caused by the papillomavirus (HPV) so they developed the Gardasil 9 vaccine which protects against the virus and prevents cervical cancer.

And doing things like breathing smoke, soot and all the other contaminates from smoking cigarettes dramatically increases the risk of lung cancer.  I mean, that's an easy one to prevent. Don't smoke.

Skin cancer. We know that long exposure to the the sun will dramatically increase your chances of getting skin cancer. Again, we know what causes it, the sun. We know how to prevent it. Sunscreen and cover up.

I find myself unfortunately in need of help finding a home for my flock of chickens. I'm moving from a small rural farm to a house in the city, and the arrangements I had previously made for the birds have fallen though.

The chickens are in the US in Virginia, and so I'm looking for anyone in any nearby state (including West Virginia, Maryland, North Carolina, Delaware, or even Pennsylvania, Ohio, Kentucky) who could take them in. Basically anywhere I can reasonably drive them.

There are nine hens and a rooster, and they are all 8-11 years old, well past prime laying age. They need a place where they can live out their lives in safety and comfort. One of the hens is blind but has been blind for many years now and is fine as long as she has a roost bar to perch on with nearby food and water.

I am absolutely willing to pay for their feed and care, and I could even pay for and/or personally construct a coop/run for them to live in.

I've tried contacting nearby rescue organizations but the only one who is even accepting chickens has room for just a few of the hens. If you can help please email me at: chicken (at) npgr.com

(Boosts appreciated)

Primal works with Nostr Wallet Connect on Android so you can use your own non-custodial wallet with it. Doesn't NWC work in iOS?


Well, good luck then.


Trump believes in libertarianism as much as he believes in god.


There are non-custodial wallets that automate channel management for you like Phoenix. It won't bother you with any questions about channels etc, it just assumes you know nothing about channels and does everything in the background automatically. It will deduct the channel opening fees from your balance.

There's also wallets like Zeus that are non-custodial and semi-automatic. Basically, you can choose to use an automated liquidity service provider, or manage the channels yourself.  You only need a very basic understanding of channels to use the LSP. However, you'll also have the option of full manual control over channels if you want to.

He's not even a Ukrainian, his family moved to Ukraine from Romania. That's why he is a Russian shill. He has no loyalty to Ukraine. His blood isn't Ukrainian blood. His family hasn't worked, lived and died for generations on Ukrainian soil.

Of course he's a Russian shill and a traitor to the country his family sort refuge in. It's easy to do when you don't have any blood ties to the land.

Yes.

A site like that needs accurate reader counts to sell their advertising so they employ a multitude of methods to ensure that you reading the page, when, from where, your device, and how long you were on the page is all recorded.

You can dramatically reduce the metadata they collect about you by using add blockers and cookie cleaners, but to be completely private you have to use specialized OS's like GrapheneOS.

If you are an investigive journalist or the Russian Opposition leader you'd definitely want to be using GrapheneOS.

Nah, he won't need to.

The only threat to his power is the Supreme Court, so, it'll be the first to go.

He'll start with Clarence Thomas. He'll have him arrested for corruption and the Democrats will cheer and the Republicans will remain silent.

Then he'll have Samuel Alito arrested for corruption and the Democrats will cheer while the Republicans remain silent.

And then he'll claim that these two arrests are proof absolute that the entire Supreme Court is corrupt and have them all arrested while the Democrats look on in stunned silence and the Republicans cheer.

At that point he'll appoint himself as final arbitrator of the law and his elevation to Emperor will be complete. While the Republicans cheer and Democrats are rounded up and sent to work camps.


Would the universe even exist if we were not here to contemplate it?


You'd be a very special person if you could figure that shit out beforehand.

Unfortunately, it's only hindsight that that puts things into perspective. You just have to accept that self doubt is a defense mechanism, and not a flaw. Just as impulsiveness is an opportunity mechanism, and not a flaw.

Sometimes you miss out on that tasty treat. Sometimes, you get burnt reaching for that tasty treat.  That's how life works.


Self doubt is also how you improve yourself. You need self doubt to counter impulsive behavior.

The trick is to get self doubt and impulsive behavior to balance themselves most of the time.  You need both...in moderation.

Well, the way I look at it is, if you're taking Elon's side, you're wrong. Every fucking time.


Well, you're not helping the network, you're hurting it. Why don't you do some actual research, learn some basic economics and how the modern monetary theory actually works.

Because all you're demonstrating is a complete lack of education and understanding of the systems you say you're working against, as you commit your time, equipment, money to working for them because you have no clue what you are doing.

You're literally working for, and enriching the very corporations you say you hate.  And worst still, is you're trying to convince others to do the same and give their money to greedy corporations.

How is any of that helping anyone other than corporations?  You've fallen for corporate propaganda and you are feeding the beast.

So, you're either ignorant, or a Psyop?

Ignorance can be fixed by a vist to your local library. Start with Adam Smith's book The Wealth of Nations.

If you're going to fight against a system, you absolutely must first learn in extreme detail, how that system works.


But, you'd still lose money because it'll cost you more to mine it, than to buy it.

Doesn't matter if your computer is sitting idle. You're literally just giving money to multi-national corporations that pay no taxes and are happy to kill you.

Why are you supporting multi-national corporations?  Why are you telling people to give money to them rather than buying Monero?

I don't understand your motivation here?  Do you want more people to buy Monero, or give their money to corporations, because that's all you're doing is putting money in their pockets and short changing Monero users.

It's like, you're pretending to support Monero or Crypto, but what you're really doing is just telling people to buy overpriced electricity rather than Monero.

You're 'advice' is literally bad for Monero but ensuring that Monero is not economically viable.

I think you're a Psyop shill account that's actually trying to harm Monero.

Or, just learn some maths, quantitative methods and some basic economics and stop giving people bad advice.


How long will it take to earn enough Monero to pay for the computer and the electricity to run it?

You would have more Monero if you just bought it rather than a computer. You'd never mine more Monero with that computer than you'd have by just buying Monero rather than a computer.

Unless you're paying less than seven cents a kilowatt for your electricity, you'll always be better off buying any crypto, not just Monero, than mining it, even if you already own mining equipment.

I know there are people that are mining at a loss to 'help the network', which is nothing more than giving their money to a multi-national energy corporation rather than just buying crypto for themselves. Idiots.


Coward Springs, a little oasis on the Oodnadatta Track.

We only planned to stay one night but extended it once we arrived. Shady camp sites, history, a little coffee shop run by the owners and a hot water bore spa that was amazingly refreshing after a day in the sun and dust. I can't recall being so relaxed than after a soak in that spa, minerals in the water maybe, felt great.

Gorgeous sunsets, sunrises and a little fire for lifting the spirits, even found some camel poo to burn. Totally worth a visit if you are ever out that way.

No. Today, every merchant will know about Bitcoin, even though most still don't accept it. That's significant growth from just a few years ago when most of those same merchants hadn't heard of Bitcoin.

When that single EFTPOS machine they use also accepts lightning payments, merchants will start accepting Bitcoin.

>  it seems to me that I'll need multiple channels with a million sats each before I can use my own lightning node/wallet.

Nah. Lightning has evelved. You'd only do that if you were setting up a 'public' routing node for fun and profit. Or, grey hair and ulcers, depending on who you ask.

You want a private lightning wallet and you'll use a liquidity service provider LSP, to automagically open and manage your channels.

I personally use Zeus. There's still a cost to open your channels, but you don't have to commit funds into the channel like you would with a routing node. You can just put your nostr zapping Bitcoin in it for instance and zap away, and receive zaps in to it too.

Warning! Zeus is truly non-custodial. You must backup your seed and wallet yourself. No one can help you if you don't save your backups.

Custodial lightning versus custodial e-cash, there's no real difference. However, it's getting hard to get a custodial lightning wallet that doesn't require kyc. That's the benefit of e-cash. Basically, lightning without kyc.

There is a setup cost with non-custodial lightning. So, for some people, especially first timers, a custodial wallet is at least a start. Something they can use until they can afford to fund their own lightning channels. So, for a non kyc lightning wallet, pretty much e-cash might be the only option for now.


Hello!!


That's a very good question.

The Dan bot pumping out the hello world spam under a new npub each cycle is a good example.  It's easy to block because it reuses the same text.  What if it used a new npub each time with random text but flooded a hashtag or tagged a person to harass them? That gets tough to block.

Is it possible to flood nostr with bots so as to make it unusable?

Federated servers can block offending accounts, and federated servers can block another server that's not proactively blocking offensive accounts.

But, federated servers can also block or delete any account using their server that's saying things they don't personally like.

Which to me, just replaces one Elon, with a couple of dozen Elon's. Censorship by a committee.

Sooo, how long until we get a bot swarm attack on nostr?


Harassment, is not free speech.

Anyone harassing someone else and calling it free speech, is a coward that's too scared to say the exact same thing to a person's face.

And, they are an ignorant fool, because freedom of speech only applies to what you say about the government without fear of reprisal.

You must be new here 😉.

There's always going to be people exploiting other people. Nothing you say or do will ever change that. If you keep stressing over it, you'll just get ulcers and, still,  nothing will change.

Some people will use custodial wallets. And some people will lose money using custodial wallets.

Some people lose money using non-custodial wallets and are still searching a rubbish tip looking for their hard drive.

If you want to follow every post about e-cash and post a disclaimer about the risks of custodial wallets, knock yourself out. It won't change anything.


Nothing. You seem to fully understand the risks.

There's no single solution for everyone. Some people will use Bitcoin banks. Even though they fully understand the risks and all. So what? If it works for them, It's none of my business why they've chosen to use, well, whatever they want to use.


It's not available where I live. Looking forward to your review. I'm kinda curious if it can work.


Because the peasants were so poor, they had to make things stretch. To make mustard last, they make it so hot, that even the tiniest amount will take your breath away. So, it forces you to use it sparingly.

You must be raging so badly, I bet you wish you had a woman you could bash right about now. You definitely have anger management issues, and every single male on the planet with anger management issues is always a woman basher.

Just as you've become enraged at me, but you have no way of venting your rage. You're way to cowardly to ever fight a man. You've taken shit from your boss and every other male you deal with, all your life, so it's bashing women and children, or bashing your rage into the keyboard. That's all you've got.

There's no hate like the hate that sprews from the mouth of Christians like you.

I look forward to your repartee.


Poor snowflake got triggered. 🤣


You came at me and tried to insult me with your uneducated ranting, then resort to name calling, because that's the limit of your intelligence.

I'm surprised you didn't just start with the racial abuse. Because I never seen an anti-vaxer that wasn't also a raging racist as well, so, good for you for limiting your insults just to people dealing with mental health issues.

That's right, cruelty is also one of the defining traits of anti-vaxes, to go along with the racism, misogyny, homophobia, and ignorance.

So, do you know any insults that don't rely on racism, homophobia, ignorance, or being cruel to those people less fortunate than you?


What part of science don't you understand?

Oh, that's right, you don't understand science at all because you can't do the math that's needed when using the scientific method. Your education level is atrocious.

So, you copy/paste some crap you found on a blog, and pretend that it makes you look smart so you can claim you're owning the libs to all your followers.

A blog post is not the same as The Lancet.  But, I bet you have no idea what The Lancet even is.

Believe me when I say that I truly am laughing at your education level.  Why is it always the undedicated that think they are smarter than everyone else that did pay attention in school, did their homework, passed their exams and went on to college.

The lazy arsed dummies that just fucked around at school, never listened, never studied, now spend their days copy/pasting QAnon, flat earth, 5G nanobot, anti-science conspiracy crap and think it makes them look smart.

Yes, that's right, I laughed at you lot at school, and I'm still laughing at you.

No you can't. It's built into the engine management system if all ICE cars.

No car made this century works without a computer controlled engine management system. And that computer can be controlled remotely via the cars OBD port and a WiFi dongle.

If you uninstall it, your car won't start.

It's only the law, and the need for a warrant that prevents law enforcement from abusing this.

Electric or petrol, doesn't matter. Once computers were added to cars, owners lost their transportation independence.


Nostr Wallet Connect added to #lnbits would be awesome.

Have you ever noticed how all anti-vaxes are always homophobic racists.

Here's a typical anti-vaxer response.

Notice how they just use abusive language because their education level is so low, that's really all they have. Their base instinct is to fear what they don't understand, and their lack of education means they don't understand much.

They copy/paste random shit they 'research' on they Internet, and racist, homophobic abuse.  That's it. That's their life. Hating everyone that's not an uneducated white person.

They're not even allowed to watch football anymore since Kaepernick took a knee. They'd be ostirisised by their 'friends' if they did.

Their racism was more important to them than the sport they once loved. How pathetic is that?

Ah yes, and here the anti-vaxers reveal themselves as racist, homophobic, uneducated morons.

It is a common trait.

Oh, and Trump lost the election too. Bet that gets you really riled up 🤣.


Yeah, but, you're opinion isn't worth shit because you're an uneducated moron.

It's hilarious how uneducated morons think their opinions carry the same weight as educated opinions.

And when you cut and paste the same garbage you 'researched' on the Internet and pretend that somehow copying other people's crap proves how smart you are, it just demonstrates why you're uneducated.

I don't engage with uneducated morons. I just make fun of them.

I see your on mobile and, you don't have any Bitcoin.

That address stuff is for your Bitcoin lightning wallet. If you already had one, you'd have the information to put into the nostr client.

So, change your nostr client to Primal.

Why?  Because Primal has a built in Bitcoin wallet. So the Primal nostr client can set up all that NiP-05 and lightning address for you. You'll be able to start receiving zaps immediately.  It's the only nostr client with a built in Bitcoin wallet that I know of.

You'll no doubt move to your own personal Bitcoin wallet one day, but for a total Bitcoin noob, Primal is an easy starting point. You won't need to learn anything about Bitcoin, to use it with Primal. It'll just work automagically. Primal is very popular for this reason.

Better to run your VPN at your router/gateway and protect your entire network.


Welcome...to the purple side.  I would have zapped ⚡ you, but you haven't set that up yet.


Ahh...well... there's sort of moderation though.

Anyone can tag something as say, hate speech or nudity.  Some nostr clients, like the one I use, will automatically block stuff that people I follow have already tagged as <whatever>, but still give me the option to reveal the offending post if I really want to see it.

And tags like spammers, are automatically added to the client so they get ignored by default.

It's not perfect, but it does reduce the noise down to an acceptable minimum.


Nostr is a protocol, not a platform.  So, there's no rules or server admins deciding what can and can't be used on the network.

There's a heap of things on nostr that can't be bridged to the fediverse. Only basic notes get bridged. That's the only nostr stuff that's compatible with the fediverse.

Long form notes, streaming, communities (reddit clone with moderated subreddits), the marketplace, chat (discord clone), encrypted messages and Bitcoin, lots of Bitcoin getting zapped around on nostr.


VC money doesn't care about jurisdictions. They're only for us peasants to abide by. Money chases profits. Doesn't care who or where, just how much.


Absolutely. Apart from the no servers bit and getting zapped Bitcoin rather than likes, it's the same.

Do you mind if I ask how you started with relays?

The reason I ask is, new users shouldn't be getting directed to relays. They are specialized software that most users don't ever need to know anything about. You wouldn't want to start one on an AWS instance. Could get a nasty bill shock even on a free tier. Relays can blow through a lot of data.

A nostr client is what new users should be directed too.

If your first view of nostr was snort.social rather than relay software, I wonder what your first impressions would have been.


Most nostr users will assign a free NIP-05 name to their npub key.

Mine is mananguri@lnwallet.app.

You can use this address for find me on nostr rather than the npub key.


Oh... that's hilarious. 😂 That's a relay you're running. Thank you for helping the network.

Relays by default just blindly relay everything with no censorship. Other than that, they're pretty boring to watch.

You can probably shut it down.

You just need a nostr client to use nostr.

It should just look like Twitter when you start it up.

For mobile:

Primal is very popular because it has a built in lightning wallet so it's ready to accept zaps out of the box. It's available for iOS and Android.

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/damus/id1628663131

Desktop clients are mostly persistent web apps.  And there's lots. There's one that makes everything on nostr look like reddit.

Which ever client you use first and create your account with, remember to save the nsec key, it's your account. You use that one nsec key no matter which client you are using.

Nostr is a permissionless protocol, not a client/server system.

No one can ever seize your account or stop you from using the network.


#Nostr doesn't have this problem because it doesn't have servers where some rando owns your account.

Public/private key encryption rather than servers hosting your account is the only way to really be in control.

And then there's zaps⚡😉.

Entitled are we?

Expecting other people to host your shit for free and screaming censorship when someone removes a video from their personally owned server.

Host your own shit.

WTF is all this entitled shit, expecting other people to do your bidding and screaming censorship when you don't get what you want like a four year old child?


Run your own video server and host whatever offensive shit you want.

Demanding other people host your videos for free, and getting butthurt because the owner of a private server removed your video just makes you come across as an entitled pratt.


Ok, so, what's the problem?  I'm no expert but I have used it. I may be able to help.

I should point out that your personal relay app isn't really a relay, it's just a filter between relays and your client that reads from, and publishers too whatever relays you set it up to use.

It doesn't act as a relay, it's a personal proxy to relays that you can apply your own personal filters too.

Basically, the legislation is so vague, LEO can point to any transaction of any type, and claim it's illegal under the act. And they'd be technically correct.

To beat such a charge, you'll need very expensive lawyers, and political support.

#hashtags allow you to follow topics or say hello to everyone using the #introductions hashtag.

You can follow #news or #sports or #nature too. Follow topics and people that interest you.


I reckon that relays should be removed from clients completely.

A dedicated relay app on your device that can concentrate on filtering, retrieval and publishing will do a better job than trying to squeeze all that into the UI. That work doesn't need to be done by the UI at all.

You can then get more complex filtering and user control, and build tor into a dedicated app.  It can become the gateway to nostr that all your nostr clients use. You can then build a trust network of relay apps that can share blacklist, whitelist, keyword lists, etc. Getting your UI client to do that is just too much to ask.

Then, no matter which client you use on your computer or phone, you have it use your local relay gateway app.

Client devs can concentrate on working on the UI. Relay devs concentrate on relaying, spam and filtering.


There's legal money laundering through registered banks that pay bribes to politicians. Drug cartels and international sex traffickers give them 5 stars for service, but two stars for fees.

And, there's illegal money laundering by any method that doesn't pay bribes to politicians.

The legal ones pay the bribes so that the politicians will shutdown their competition.

It's just business, nothing personal.


Geo-blocking 330 million Yanks is better than sharing a cell with Julian Assange or living next door to Edward Snowden. The weather in Russia sucks.


Sure. Still, it's no one else's problem. All the abuse that Phoenix has received is absolutely wrong. Americans need to focus that anger where it belongs, with themselves for choosing the government they have.


The Internet was way more fun before http, when there was only telnet, ftp and gopher that you accessed it with a VT220 DEC terminal.


To be fair though, this is a fight the Americans have to do themselves. It's not up to foreign companies to resist and face prison to fight against laws the American people have voted for, and continue to vote for.

It's entirely up to the American people to change their government themselves, and very cowardly of them to demand foreign companies fight a fight they're not willing to fight themselves.

If Americans aren't going to stand up for themselves, wtf should anyone else?

All these people abusing Phoenix, calling them cowards, why aren't they abusing their government?  Is it because their government will do to them what they are doing to children protesting at universities if they dare complain?


Me, I'm not the calling for other people to risk jail time. Why call me a tough keyboard warrior, that doesn't even make sense? Kinda sucks as an insult.

Why don't you do what you're demanding other people do? It's a simple question?

I guess it's because you're to much of a coward to risk jail time yourself.


The ACINQ software is open source, why don't you host a version of Phoenix wallet yourself?

Then, you can pay for the lawyers and beg for help from the Bitcoin legal defense fund, Opensats etc.

Don't ask other people to risk jail time if you're not willing to either. Instead of demanding other people place themselves at risk of arrest, why don't you put up, or shut up.

You wouldn't cave on day one?  Yeah, right.  Talks pretty cheap. So is hosting your own ACINQ node. You can have that up and running in just a couple of hours. Hell, I'll even set it up for you for free, provided you record the day the FBI kicks down your door and arrests you for daring to do what you're demanding other people so.

I could spin up a Cashu mint and all I have to do is geo-block Americans and the US government won't give a shit. It's what companies like Wallet of Satochi do. And billions of people all over the planet could use it. Just, not you Yanks

The rest of the  people on the planet don't care that that the USA is a repressive regime that forbids its peasants and serfs from anonymously using Bitcoin. Like...HaHa 🤣.

Perhaps you Americans should change your government if you actually want the freedoms you pretend you have. Although, there's that old saying that you always get the government that you deserve.


A friendly reminder from Flowers by Irene that USD is the only currency that criminals should ever use. They can legally launder their criminal profits through a multitude of Banks which all pay the appropriate bribes to US politicians so they can operate with impunity.

Remember, if you're a criminal drug cartel or sex trafficking ring using USD, Uncle Sam has your back.

IBM released it's Unix based AIX in 1986. I know, because I was there.

Long before linux was released, Unix System V was already well established and used by IBM, HP, DEC, Data General, Wang.

Linus Torvalds didn't invent anything. He ported already existing systems using Microsofts' x86 version of Unix they called Xenix as the basis for his Linux.

IBM has never tried to extinguish Linux. IBM have exclusively used and supported *nix based open operating systems longer than you've been born.

Linux, would not exist if not for IBM. It would not have grown to what it is today without IBM fully supporting and funding Linux development since the 90's.

Yeah, it's a real shit hole, if you're a right wing nutcase that's into conspiracy theories. Otherwise, great climate, lots of high paying jobs, one of the lowest tax rates in the OECD, free medical and hospitals, and we stop #Incells and crazy people from owning guns. And we don't let anyone own an assault rifle under any circumstances.

We stop voter fraud and rigged elections because we have universal suffrage and voter ID. Even criminals get to vote. Criminals have to vote or they go to jail 😱.

Their are exemptions for medical reasons. Including mental health issues. And criminals serving more than five years can apply to be exempt from voting.

We don't have voter suppression or gerrymandering.  We also have preferential voting rather than first past the post.

I'm sure there are a lot of relays that aren't being monitored. And too many are just set to relay everything, so easily abused by spammers.

As spam increases on the network, relay operators will need to implement rate limiting for instance, or they'll just get flooded with spammers until their relay just dies under load.


I wonder how much Markdown^™^ can Amethyst render?


Australians have to vote, it's the law. You can put a line through the ballot paper if you don't want to vote for anyone. But you do have to turn up and get your ballot and drop it in the box, even if it's blank, or has a penis drawn on it.

Incorrectly filled out ballots obviously don't count, but they are tallied and the total numbers published along with the votes.

Anyone that's ever participated in the vote count will have stories to tell of some of them. People can get very creative with a pencil and can turn the ballot into some fine artwork.

github.com is a software development site.

When people say GitHub, they are talking about GitHub.com

If I say 'GitHub Amethyst' what I mean is go to GitHub.com and download Amethyst.


None of the notes, images or videos people post are stored on relays, they're not servers. They do cache notes for awhile, but also do purge their caches.

However, there are relay operators that will store your posts permanently on their relay, for a fee.

Or...

You can spin up your own personal relay that runs in your system tray in just a few seconds.  If you're an influencer or important person, you may run your own personal beefy relay if you're producing your own video content etc and you want to make it available permanently.

You can even spin up a relay as a cloudflare worker app in less than a minute. A relay is a pretty simple piece of software, it's not doing much other than relaying tiny strings of json text.

Otherwise, if you're a nobody like me, happy to use the default relays my nostr client chooses. I don't care if my posts vanish after a time. It's not like I'll ever say anything profound, or world changing statements needing to be preserved for future generations 🤷. I certainly don't think I'm saying anything worth me even running a small private relay.

There's also a lot of people offering filtered relays that people can use so you can watch the Global feed at work 😜.

Because nostr is a protocol and not a company or service, you have to store anything you want to keep permanently yourself. That has to be better than relying on Twitter a federated server admin to store your data for you. For free. Because that makes you the product they're selling


No, not at all. Your account is still just a data file on someone's else's federated server. If the server gets turned off before you move your account to another server, it's still gone forever.

Your nostr 'account' is just a private key which is nothing more than a text string;

nsec123456789example987654321abc

It's not a data file. You can literally just write it down on a piece of paper. You can't do that with any other social network.

And that's all you need.  Because nostr is a protocol, and not a company there's no one that owns or controls anything on nostr. There's no federated servers to store anyone's user accounts because there are no accounts, just public/private key encryption.

You enter that private key string into any nostr client, and boom, there's your account. Ready to use. And there are dozens of open source nostr counts to choose from.

#nostr #fediverse


Or, treat energy as an essential national security requirement and have regulated prices. Rather than letting a few multi-national fossil fuel industries that pay no taxes extort and cripple industries in the west so the Saudi's can fund religious terrorism around world.


If you create your account on the #nostr network, you'll always own and control it because your account is a public/private encryption key, and not owned by a federated server administrator or anyone else. Just don't lose or ever share your private key with anyone.

The #nostr network is bridged to the #fediverse which is how you can see this post that I've done using the #Amethest mobile app and nostr.

By doing this, it's your nostr account that's keeping a record of all your posts, followers and following, history, etc. You'll keep them forever. No one can ever take them, seize them, lose them because a server crashed, or just deletes them for fun.

True freedom is personally owning your own account data. Only #nostr has that benefit.


After protesting about the Chinese government doing this, the US government decided it would be a good idea for themselves. Because irony, is so ironic.

They look so delicious 😋.


That feeling you get when your new toy finally works properly.

This is happening because your VPN provider only has a virtual server in your state.  Very common for providers to do that if the state has the legal power to just seize and search physical severs. Or legally requires server operators to install spyware, logging software,etc. It's how they give their (limited) guarantee of privacy but still offer a gateway that will at least fool a streaming service for instance.

Switzerland has the world best privacy laws, so VPN providers based there are your first step to a reasonably private VPN.


Oui.


The problem with the federated server model and the #fediverse is on display here. #Nostr fixes this.

There's no federated server admins that can be harassed into banning people's accounts for expressing opinions.

That's interesting 🤔.


You're right, it did bring tears to my eyes. 😦
