 Despite Orange pilling my builder, he still insists on filthy fiat, so going to sell off some of my legacy shitcoins as I spent all my wife's filthy fiat on luxury cruises and boozy beach lunches just to satisfy the vicarious whims of  @bitcoinsandy 
 GM Nostr! 🔥

 Hey  @primal could you replace the random number generator with a date / time operator to sequence notifications please 😂 

 
 Psst: Bitcoin is still not at an all-time-high in Gold 
 Getting a few messages from friends of 2 types:

1 - "loving this, I want to take profits, double... 
 All Bitcoiners right now 😂 
 Hey #devs if I zap myself, due to old age and senility, does anything actually happen?

Is there a round trip for the Sats, or do they just stay in the wallet? 
 Hey  @damus the app still thinks I'm zapping myself every time I send a zap.

Now sometimes, due to old age and senility I do zap myself by mistake, but most of the time I am zapping somebody else 😂  
 I got 1,000 Sats 4 mins ago 
 Did Damus notify you that you’d zapped yourself? 
 🧐 
 Ah, I can help a little.

 @damus doesn’t allow in note zapping by default (Apple store restrictions).

To turn it on, follow these instructions:

https://nostr.com/nevent1qqsdvlns9wwufqeyvt4yy9yrm6xdt0q0h9s69055r28qh55u7l95sqqzyqduwzspfzelx9k6x0lrez0j8cl8rtz0lxvqylk8z2ustnfy76jpzuaf9rk

You can then in-note zap.

Once you do, you get this issue when you zap in-note:

nostr:note19ng6zh74zavzl867x29d3d4dlqpfk5f2gzxqwdcgsvhya63ge7gqcs9c85

 
 I’m also getting @damus  iPhone notifications when I use desktop @primal to zap 😂 https://i.nostr.build/IdYAEwxXufi2trNY.jpg  
 Interesting, I only zapped you a single 42 Sats, yet you got the notification twice and I get the same notification once 🧐 
 Yep, got 69 Sats 27 mins ago 
 Yes you’re seeing the same issue now, notifying that you’ve sent a zap is great, it just has the wrong recipient. It has the sender, not the receiver. 
 Sorry should be to: mike not to: Nick Lewis 
 Yes 
 Let's keep  the Christmas stuff for December please 😂  
 GM

With the promise of Uptober coming, back in June we sold the Tesla. 

We recently replaced it with a filthy Fiat until the pump finishes.

 Yes, yes it is 😂 

It's not really filthy, we wash it often. 
 This one was imported from Japan, so all the manuals are in Japanese.

Let's just say we had to watch a lot of YouTube videos to find out how configure it 😂  
 My wife really loves it 😁  
 Yes, I’ve warmed to it 🇮🇹 
 Thanks 🫂

We like it 💜 
 Thanks 🫂

 We're only giving 50K Sats per nibling, per Birthday / Christmas!

We are tight 😂  
 Ok,  we can re trace any time now bitcoin. This up only shit is giving me anxiety. I'm not ready ...

 I am done with posting #Bitcoin ATH price updates. It’s just pumping too fucking hard. 
 Come on, you've waited for this moment for years.

Keep posting, you know you want to 😂  
 And for supersonic airline fans, the Concorde lounge at Barbados Airport:

https://v.nostr.build/b8Ac0nGpTy278vRp.mp4
 
 Oh Sats 😔 
 I flew on one in 1997, my claim to fame is I couldn’t wait for it to break the sound barrier so I went to the toilet and pissed through Mach 1 
 There are several companies building new supersonic planes and of course Elon believes that Starship heavy will one day whisk people from London to Sydney in around 45 minutes.

Having flown Concorde, in some definitions, I am an astronaut having reached a cruising altitude of 60,000 ft 
 Elon and Bitcoin will probably fix that for you! 
 True 😂  
 More Cruise ship life, especially for  @bitcoinsandy

 If we want Nostr to win we need to up our game, the competition is not static. 
 Arm less I suppose 
 Catsup 😂 
 What about Curry Sauce? 
 This is the way 
 A classic 😁 
 Best film trailer ever “Sausage Party”

Worst film ever “Sausage Party” 😂 
 You could argue quantum entanglement happened and blame Schrödinger

 But I don’t even have 1 University degree 🥹

 I can't zap you (send you a Bitcoin payment by Lightning), which is the preferred method to show appreciation on here.

When your ready, you'll want to link a Bitcoin Lightning Wallet to your profile, this gives a basic explanation:

 Also, you might want to follow our mutual friend  @josswilbraham  
 Be kind 🫂, he’s new here 😂 
 😂😂😂😂 
 I’m meeting him in a weeks time for the first time, but he lives near me and we don’t let any old riff raff live here, so yes, yes he is 😂 
 Is that all you think I’m good for 🥹

In that case, I’m leaving you, go get your own cruise pics and liquid lunches 😂 
 😂😂😂😂😂😂

The above emojis do not convey enough the laughter I am laughing right now.

Also the laughing is increasing the intense pain I sustained from lifting heaving suitcases because my Butler stayed on the ship and is now serving another master. 
 Where did the "price doesn't matter" guys go?
😂 
 He went and f**ked himself after his girlfriend told him to buy a Lambo 😂 
 Summary:

He's too busy partying with his new wealth and new girlfriend to post anything. 
 Shall we have a friendly daily competition on how many messages we each receive daily about Bitcoin from F&F? 😂 

I'll start, I've had 5 today 🤣  
 Bitcoin is for anyone, but not for everyone. 
 You’ve probably orange pilled them already John 😂 
 I’m not convinced 😂 
 just found some moldy head cheese in the fridge and nearly projectile vomited

happy ATH!! 
 We call that blue cheese and pay a premium for it 😂  
 Me: holy fuck 84K
Katie: are you selling?
Me: no.
Katie: then why do you care?

I love her. 
 Orangepill harder 😂  
 100k by the end of the day. 
 On Venus or Earth? 
 Nostr clients, what’s your plan to comply with the newly proposed Trump’s revision of section... 
 Whats the scariest travel thing you’ve ever done? 

#asknostr
