 Bitcoin conferences during bull market is gonna be... Yeah... No thanks 
 nostr conferences will be where the signal is at. 
 i tried to run this the other day, but i was getting an error. i saw the requests coming into knox. i was able to login with to nostrudel with a brand new generated set of keys and the generated uri. however, i could not publish any events. the error on nostrudel was something along the lines of incorrect pubkey or invalid pubkey. i saw the request in the knox console coming in though. i didn't test with my nsec, only the newly generated one. i will test with another set of existing keys later today when i have some more time.

 I wish we had a more mature and viable solution built in Nostr, but we don't. We're close with 0xchat, but it can't compete with Signal just yet. 
 Different key management tools automatically makes apps performance increase?

 Finish the outbox model! 😏🔥 
 These last such a long time. My first bar is finally just about kicked and I'll be moving to the second bar next week.

 Heads up! We're rebranding zap.store to Zapstore.

 GM buddy. 💜🫂🤙🏻 
 now that we're experiencing "number go up" in bitcoin, we may start to see more people joining nostr as they go down their bitcoin rabbit hole journey.

this was me 4 years ago.

show them the way. 
 I'm just a guy that loves freedom technology and what these tools such as Bitcoin and Nostr can mean for the world. 
 NOSTR HAS TOO MANY BITCOIN NOTES AND NOT ENOUGH BITCOIN NOTES AT THE SAME TIME. 
 Good morning, Ewelina 💜🫂🤙🏻 I hope you are doing amazing. Truly. Miss you 🤙🏻🫂💜 
 Brand new npub?
Has a Lightning address?
Bitcoin in bio? 
Uses popular hashtags?

C'mon man.

We need better scammers. 
 We do. These low effort scams are exhausting. 
 Brother this doesn't apply to you. Or does it? 😂 
 Npub activity. 
 I feel attacked. 
 No. It's low effort Zap farming. 
 You're about two years too late for that 🥹 
 Ugh. One red flag is no biggie, but all of them? C'mon. 
 probably not 😉  
 Stays on Nostr are essentially made up numbers that don't matter. I remember when the BTC Zapped jumped like 100 in a few days because of people spamming 😂 
 Anyone else have this amethyst ui bug? When I click on a note that has like 10ish replies, and sc... 
 It's a known issue 😭

 gm, good people. ☕ 🌅  
 GM Shawn. How are you? 💜🤙🏻🫂 
 I'm good. I had some leftover sausage gravy and biscuits for breakfast, am finishing a cup of coffee, and awaiting this SQL import to finish. Life is good. 
 Hmm. I can't remember what I was thinking about earlier and it's going to bug me for a very long time. Good morning 🌄

 GM. Good work. Once the seed has been planted you'll have to revisit her and help it grow. 
 Good morning and pura vida, Nostr! It's time to create notes and send zaps! 🤙🏻💜🫂

I thought of a great one liner to add to my GM and PV note this morning while still in bed. However, after starting at the fiat mines, my highly inspirational and motivational thoughts have escaped me. You'll have to use your imagination on this one. You know, maybe that will work. Keep your imagination going strong. Keep dreaming. Also, keep rambling. Good thoughts may come, given enough time. 
 Good morning 🌄 
 Pura vida 🫂🤙🏻💜 
 Good morning, Constantin 💜🤙🏻🫂 
 Yes, I sung the chorus from Blondie - Maria as soon as I saw your reply 🥹 Good morning! 🫂🤙🏻💜 
 Good morning sir! 🫂🤙🏻💜 
 Similar to meditation, I would guess? Good morning 🌄

 GM! Doc I need some #DocChain advice. I haven't ran a 5K in over two weeks 😭😭😭 I hurt my knee somehow. I don't remember twisting it or doing anything that hurt it. Two+ weeks ago it felt different laying in bed and the next morning it hurt bit. I ran a 5K that day. It hurt more that night. Next morning it was still not feeling 100%, but after moving around it was fine I thought. I could run without issue so I ran another 5K. That afternoon my knee really hurt and became really stiff. It was noticably bad. I haven't ran since. It doesn't hurt now, but it's a bit uncomfortable and gets stiff if I don't move it. It's odd. It feels like there's something stuck or pressure under the knee cap or on the side of my knee. Katie wants me to go get X-rays. I assumed I'm old and somehow hurt myself and it would be fine in a couple weeks. Thoughts? 😂👀 
 maybe? i didn't have any swelling that i noticed though. 
 I've been running for about a year and a half. The only thing different is I went on two long hikes in a two week period that included walking up and down 1000+ large steps each time. But again the next day after doing these I felt fine with zero pain. The people I went with had leg issues the next day. I felt great and ran as I normally would have without issue. Then a week later the knee issues started. 
 Thanks!

The pain hasn't been bad. It's more uncomfortable than anything. I don't need to take any pain medicine since it's not bad. I thought about taking ibuprofen for potential inflammation, but I would think two weeks without running any inflammation would be done by now?

If I didn't twist or remember doing anything that hurt my knee could that still be an injured meniscus?  
 Yeah I have none of that. It's not overly painful. It's more of an annoyance.

I can feel the difference between my knees. The one I basically can't feel because there's nothing wrong or touching it, the other feels more of a pressure or uncomfortableness which makes me want to adjust and move/bend and straighten it.

Normally I wouldn't think anything about it, but it's been this way for two weeks without improvement. 
 Randomly made myself smile and get that good brain chemicals just by having a memory.

 Absolutely. A smile because of your life partner fixes most things in life 🥹

 Disregard most of these as the correct things to do. There is no correct path. Find your own path. Everyone is different and has their own values. Have zero regrets. 
 Goodnight and wabi sabi, Nostr! 🫂💜🤙🏻

Today was wild. Let's do it again tomorrow. Memes. GIFs. All of it. 
 So since we got engaged on 11/11, should we get married on 12/12, nostr:npub1el3mgvtdjpfntdkwq446... 
 I can share. 
 1M sat zaps were rare, but not out of the ordinary nearly 2 years ago. 100K zaps were very common too. it almost seems wild to think about it now...

nostr:note1enav8ju56hg3jr2398pcuyd6dspwwc6jlkyy50wex4ekpd6d8nhskm48q4  
 Maybe some of them 😂 but we had a lot of whale zaps from other people too  
 Always the Queen. 
 Were you around when we essentially did a Lightning "trust" torch of 1M sats back and forth? nostr:nprofile1qqsp4lsvwn3aw7zwh2f6tcl6249xa6cpj2x3yuu6azaysvncdqywxmgprpmhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuumwdae8gtnnda3kjctvq9n8wumn8ghj7enfd36x2u3wdehhxarj9emkjmn99ah8qatzx9e8gmr3vdsnsu3kv96hjcthx4hr26pnds6ngv3jv3kngumj0y6kg7nxv4jngd3exen8zefcwvm8zem4v34hxdmydf6xvuelvfex7ctyvdshxapaw3e82egpzpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejs5mzk3a started it. It went to 20+ people I think? Fun times. 
 Thank you sir. 
 noStrudel lets you use multiple accounts! 
 Yep! So does Amethyst and Nostur. 
 Lauren Schiff is kinda hot.

 The 88K gang is a blessing, because we get to post more Back to the Future memes and GIFs.

 Thanks for clearing that up 😂 
 turns out building zaps on a monetary network backed by the laws of physics was a good idea
