 What's the best way to support #noagenda by paying with bitcoin? 🤔
Seems to be only via paypal at the moment...

 Without Apology
🚨 It's the “Paul Rosenberg” reminder of the month.
Take 15 minutes of your life to listen and re-listen to at least this podcast...

 In my discussion with normies lately I have been trying to get to the real root of our difference... 
 What you say is so true, it's like a constant fight against their own insecurities and lack of life meaning, pushing them to the all-knowing authority or credentialized bureaucrats.

When drifting outside of banal conversations with normies, I usually stick to passing nuggets of personal responsibility and critical thinking examples. 
What seems to wake them up is:
- I personally don't care if I change their point of view
- It's coming from someone who has "his shit together," in a loving relationship, with well-behaved smart kids and a meaningful job

 > Au cœur du libéralisme, il y a cette affirmation fondamentale que le droit n’est pas une création politique mais une institution antérieure à l’État, attachée à notre condition d’être humain et qui s’impose à lui. Nos droits ne sont pas accordés par la loi, selon le bon vouloir des gouvernants. Ils sont naturels et inaliénables.

 Welcome to #Nostr  @nishapet 🫂  
 Prebunking, trying to preemptively protect people before [the] damage occurs, is much more effective than debunking. So what the media described as a psychological vaccine against fake news is really based on the psychological theory of inoculation. So just as injecting yourself with a weakened dose of a virus triggers the production of antibodies to help protect you from future infection you can do the same with information by preemptively injecting people with a severely weakened dose of fake news.

 Question for  @OCEAN
How can I find out if a BOLT12 lightning payout is working?
I've setup my offer following your instructions, but never received any payments. And if it is not set up properly, how can I remove the offer from the dashboard?

My dashboard just says: "Estimated Time Until Minimum Payout
Lightning ⚡"

Thanks! 
 😄 
 Thanks for replying!
1. yes
2. yes
3. it's not!?
4. just connected it

So it looks like my channel with ACINQ have been silently failing for a while 😟

Lightning node management is exhausting 😭 

I am going to try to find out what it is... 
  
 I already got some onchain payment ;)
I just really want to make lightning payouts work. 
 after opening a new public channel, it worked! got my lightning payout this morning, thanks! 🤝 
 also: 
- blink twice to accept cookies.
- or blink five times, squeeze your left hand, look up for 3 seconds, and bend your right leg to opt-out 
 thanks for reminding me of this!

how did you pay with lightning? Their btcpayserver only offered onchain and monero. 
 oh, I see... geyser.fund 🤦‍♂️
