Imo Cyberpunk is great and the new Phantom Liberty DLC is a good addition.

the Witcher was initially a series of books which are also very good if you're looking for a read. The tv series was well done.

If you've ever read the book Brave New World, we happy few has very similar vibe to it.


:RedHeart:


The Witcher, cyberpunk and FF 7 are all great. I also really enjoyed "we happy few" as well.


No each FF game is standalone unless playing a direct sequel like FF X2


Aaaaand west coast new years hit.


I'm genuinely surprised that this game worked. I haven't plugged it in in probably a decade. 😅


Kentucky bourbon and Nintendo Starfox. Happy orbit around the sun nostr. Lookong forward to the new year.

Part of the reason I started doing therapy last year. Been working on myself for a while.


Stumbled on a "nomadnet CMS" so I'm slowly working on building out that page, but if anyone is fiddling with Reticulum this is my node's address (I think.) It also should be available on I2P. I don't think the message board is working right yet.

let me know if you can connect.

I guess full disclosure I can see the IP addresses that connect to the relay if I want to but I don't intentionally log anything.


I dont at least.


Nope.

Happy one more orbit around the Sun.

Love it 🤌


I've used Bitrefill a fair ammount and I hear the Bitcoin Co is halfway decent although I haven't used them myself so I can't vouch.


in an attempt to be more concise.

I like Bitcoin tipping but I generally think that it's a liability, at least with a way that Zaps currently work. Private and anonymous zapping is a nice feature But not perfect.

My initial hesitancy was not wanting to use custodial solutions and privacy implications.


Dear Lord, I just reread that and realized it was a bit of a word salad, but I hope that kind of makes sense.


😅 a story in 3 tweets.


Once I set up a proper page for my node, it would be interesting to see if other people can connect to it.


I don't think I would be able to walk on that carpet without stepping around the "cables".


I *think* I'm starting to wrap my head around this. Was able to make a node, and connect to it locally and send shit to myself back and forth. Gonna keep messing with it and set up a page for my node tonight for shiggles. I have an extra raspi so why not lol. Off to the FIAT mines for now.

Sloppy cable management is always stressful. 😅


🙃 I also thought the carpet was audio cables.

I obviously currently have a lightning address, but for the longest time I was very hesitant about zaps, specifically.

This is a concept I still don't really like but the idea of but Before private and anonymous zapping was a thing, I didn't like the idea (and still dont tbh) of a list of who sent who money that is open for anyone to read. I know Bitcoin is pseudonymous, and attaching any form of identity to these payments is still a little bit troublesome for me. Obviously, I've relaxed a little bit the way I feel about it, but it's still something in the back of my mind that bothers me.

Also, I refused to personally use custodial solutions and waited until I could run things myself.


Oooh cool. I like urban exploration as well.


:RedHeart:


That sick. They got a web site?


Na im in the US but just a simple case for a handheld radio thing.


So I don't have a 3D printer. Are there services out there that will 3D print things for you for a fee?


Bullish on Tech that helps people remain sovereign.


Lmao, how many functions can we fit into a seed signer. Signing device, communications device, retro gamer.


I'm not really a fan of waking up early but I definitely need to change my sleep schedule a little bit So I'm not a worthless mook in the first half of the day.


Still cool. I grew up with goats. I miss them so much.


I love goats. Dident know they had npubs. 😁


Let me know how your experiments go!


It seems really cool. Optimized for low bandwidth high latency. Plus a mess of ways to use it that that dont rely on the TCP/IP stack. LoRa, radio and so on. I'd like to figure out how to use it over radio.


I currently have sideband running on my phone and I'm kind of interested in building the handheld radio thingy.


This looks neat. Read the manual a bit before passing out last night. Has anyone used it for comunicating?

https://reticulum.network/index.html


Bookmarked that for later.


I don't have a vomit react vile enough for that.


I forgot about the steak bullshit.  😅


Lol true. Conversely, I'd be much more excited to talk to a Bitcoiner  someone from Nostr if they came into my workplace than some rando yuppie.


Lmao. I don't feel like faking it. And the real answer to how I'm doing is much more complex than a simple good or bad or whatever. I dunno. This is generally why I'm in the back of the house, but unfortunately our kitchen is just exposed enough to where people will poke in at the kitchen and like say "Oh hello there's the cook!"


:RedHeart:


Also probably the fact that I think about it as "interfacing with a client" says something.😅


I really got to get better at interfacing with restaurant customers. Everyone always thinks I'm depressed because when they ask me how I'm doing I just say I'm okay and I don't really have much more to say than that.

When really I'm juggling a bunch of shit in my head that they probably wouldn't care about. So instead of going into detail about a arbitrary topic that I'm thinking about, I just cop out and say I'm doing okay. 😅

Catching up on podcasts at work while it's really slow. Call me Uncle Enki lmao.

In all seriousness though, if you are the tech of the family, help your family get more self-sovereign by letting them use your self-hosted services, whether it's your lightning node or your password manager or whatever. I try to onboard friends and family to my instances whenever I can.

Does it work if you navigate to their profile and then hit unblock?


Well shit, I want to test it, but there's no one that I really want to block. 😅

Okay, I'll specify I only really need up to four sticks.

Specifically ordered non-low-voltage ram. They sent me fucking low-voltage ram. God damn it.


Damn. I hope it was just a one off random incident and not something targeted (like casing your place)


Na saw it on twitter. Not sure how it was made. I use sqwuaker as a "read only" twitter client.


GM. Reminder Its not freedom money if you have to give over ID, home address and a selfie to buy it.

Mine, earn or use things like robosats and bisq. Levrage local meetups to find people to buy p2p from. Use an atm (if any exist that allow no kyc buys still)

Im not a hyper guru but I have a decent understanding if no one else is available.


Mmmm damn.


So far I found nothing on antenna pod. I guess I'll keep looking.


I had to look up what Bitcoin Uncensored was. I've never listened to or heard of that podcast. 😅


That's pretty fair. It also means you can get stuff that you would never want to personally spend money on.


Yoo!


Some culty people make magical fairy statements about the attributes of bitcoin, and then put all of their ego and will behind their statements to try to force them into being true.
Its like there was a Scientology conference held next to a bitcoin conference and their event listings got swapped.

Bitcoin is a cryptograpic currency with a number of novel technological innovations which solve a number of problems inherent in fiat currency. The result being a decentralized currency which eliminates inflation, diminishes censorship, and excludes central banks and the State.
If that isn’t brilliant enough on its face, excluding the need to add magical fairy attributes, nothing will be.


I was gonna ask wtf that was from. 😅

This is probably more of a spring dish but I did a whole bird with a bed of potatoes, onions, lemons, a dash of white wine, and garlic. The bird was rubbed with olive oil, cayenne, paprika thyme and ginger. I was even able to pop in some broccoli to get it nice and roasty.

Man, I'm not even a smoker and I love those bars.


God, I heard this in a podcast a few days ago. Why in the *holyest* of fucks would anyone expose critical infrastructure to the internet.

And for whatever unholy reason they decided that it was necessary, why in the fuck would they keep a default password. Man people are stupid.

Lmao. Accidentally overdid it on the edibles, took a 4 hours nap, Woke up and ate two steaks and mess of potatos. The dangers of weed. 😂


Not gonna let the normal holiday depression get me down. 😤


Im glad you where with someone trustworthy. Getting dosed with God knows what is a violating experience. Only scum dose people. Urg.


I have an old one just collecting dust in my old tech box. 🤔


Governments want privacy too, even if they don't want their citizens to have it. 😂


I did not know that Christmas music could get worse..... and then they put on the Beach Boys Christmas playlist.


The little data hoarding goblin inside of me absolutely loves Moore's Law.


Gn sleep well.


Hmm, interesting.


Ok so full disclosure, I did some work for these guys (set up a pay server for their site so they can take bitcoin payments)

But when Bitcoiners do soap, they don't fuck around. Shout out to ordersoap.com. I got 2 bars try the soap and I dig it. The soap only has like 7 ingredients. And even though I'm not usually a person who likes a scented soap, I gotta say the black spruce and the lemon grass soaps that I got smell absolutely fantastic.

Government grants are still their largest source of funding, if I'm reading their reports right. I'm not shitting on TOR or anything the tech is solid, I still use it all the time, but it's good to know where the funding comes from.

I was I choir kid. We started practicing Christmas songs  two months before December. I *detest* christmas music now.


I already do 😅


Cant go anywhere in public now xmas music is in full force. My poor bleeding ears.


It's not really that high of a bar in the first place. Most dispo edibles suck. 😅


Yeah the wax seal was impressive af.


Grand Puba Tinkering.


Yeah I used LN when I tested the server. Ill ping them. Because fuck the recent onchain fees. 😅


Yeah, that's probably correct. I'll talk to them about adding more liquidity to the server in the next day or so.


Let me know if There are any issues. We didn't add a lot of liquidity to the server to start.


Aged like milk 🤌


Drink one for me. I'm stuck in the Fiat mines slinging cheese boards.

Cring comment of the day goes to the lady at the bar :

"Oh take your time with my check I can watch beautiful men cook all day."

Jokes on her, she has no idea we are actually deranged goblin people.


I will have to take your word for it. I was but a babe.


Bitcoin core.


Did I need to go to bed at 2am? No. Could I have woken up earlier than 9? Maybe. Lmao.


Curse having to go to work early and long compile times on tests. lmao. My poor sleep habits strike again.


Stupid late again. GN.


God speed ser. 🫡


I must have a mess of people in that thread blocked or something I only see you and one person.


At my local pub, I'm kind of staring off in the middle distance as I contemplate the day. I notice a VPN ad on the TV. I gotta say, they're extremely misleading.


Lmao yeah when im home i pop this on my studio speakers


That falsetto though.


Damn dudes got pipes.


Just popped back in Amethyst.


I like 418 "im a teapot."


Use Amethyst and you can set custom amounts.


Lmao. Proper.


I just got off work yall nuke the stream?


Gonna have to hop in a chat when I can.


Hell yeah. Need more stuff like dance safe out there.


Technically speaking, I could have a brain aneurysm and die at any moment. 😅

I have fun looking back as well but a lack of organization is a pain in the aas when your looking for something specific.


Whole ass mood.


Man, I'm starting to realize that I have 24 gigs of extremely unorganized photos and it is hard to find specific things that I'm looking for.

Nextcloud is great but I've put zero effort into organization and tagging of photos. I might need to look into a better way of doing this.


I don't know why but it really brings to mind the scene In Iron Man, where that dude is yelling at his workers being like "Tony Stark did it in a cave with a bunch of scrap!" 😅


That I can understand. I'm not really a spiritual person, But I can understand finding a balance with your inner self and your outer self.


I genuinely don't see how anything religious based helps you avoid indoctrination, but that's just me.


Yeah, it took me a long time to unlearn a lot of really bad ideas.


7-month-year-old kid. Wow, that was a dumb ass sentence. But you get the point. Kids young, not in school yet. And he's genuinely worried about sending him to public school. and wants to be able to pass on his own ideals of freedom. Yet feels like almost the entire world is against him.


was kind of just talking about this with a friend of mine who has a seventh month year old kid.


+1 to this.


The indoctrination part is going to be one of the tougher ones that overcome.


He could use lnbits as long as he has access to a browser. So maybe if the fire tablet is restricting everything then it might not be the best route. 🤔 ill think a bit.


If you're running an lnbits instance, you can set them up with a wallet there?

As admin, you would have access to his account in case he messed up or lost his device somehow. He could connect to it through Zeus or just by using the PWA.


just another reason seed signers kick ass.

People are losing their mind over this ghost address thing when I genuinely don't see how relying more on amboss (who collects and sells data about your node) is going to help you.

It dosent really remove the need for an intermediary if you're using their domain for an lnurl....or mabey im not getting it.


Holy crap, I can't believe I missed this post. I hope you're recovering quickly.


I have a mess of photos from backpacking. Ill dig up a few.


GN

Feels good when you finaly work out all the kinks in a script and it works as intended.


that was fun! peace for now.


lol yeah. not gonna risk that.


mics are nuked.


big ol' fireball every big zap. lol the stage would need to be outside


100k zaps makes the pyrotechnics go off or something.


that would be nuts lol.

If I had fresh apple filling croissant I'm not sure I would ever take a picture because I would eat them so fast. 😂


I will! I've been forgetting to take pictures of the bread I make and tag you lol. I've experimented with some non-spiral patterns recently.


yeah the audio is crisp AF. great job sound team.


its super fun to client hop. the stream is flawless on nostrudel ,Amethyst, zap stream.


Yusss.


100% freah pie and ice cream is a top combo. I might have to make my own pie now. I haven't made a pie in ages. 🤔

Oh man thinking of fresh made pie with homemade ice cream is making me salivate. 🤤

Looks great! I wish I could smell it and I would absolutely eat a piece. I'm really curious about that butter. I think I might order some to try it.....they also have some good looking cheese....

The joke is the "150$ stablecoin" at least vs usd.


Why Eclair over CLN? That's one implementation I haven't given a close look at.


Fees need to chill so I can swap 😑


Its a bit of a pain in the ass to set up but worth it imo.


The original anime was done before the manga was complete, so this is just done after the manga was complete, so the story is actually accurate.


Lol yup. >.> I'm currently brewing coffee after a lunchtime smoke.


Aka a hippy speedball.


I just drink more coffee. 😅


Definitely got to love the oops I grabbed the wrong jar problem.


Facts tho.


Basically no, the entire internet as we know it is built off of TCP/IP. To not use an IP address would take a brand new protocol.


I have a phone service that specifically fucks with scammers. If it detects a number that ranks high on spam rankings, it shunts them into a pre-recorded conversation bot And sends me the recording if they talk for more than a minute. 😂


It puts a fair amount of responsibility on your shoulders, but I do think Uncle Jiming people is a good way to get them on more private platforms. I do it where I can.


Migrating my meager collection of code to a Self-hosted Gitea.

The trade-off just never made sense to me. It would be kind of cool to know some like genetic details about myself, but that would also be giving my DNA to a corporation doing God knows what with it.


Facts. Lol.


Yeah it was mindblowing. Nostr still blows my gourd almost daily.


Thats the one! Nostr console.


Yeah running a local AI is on my list of shit to get done next year. No more hobbled AI.

I mentioned the game "cyberpunk 2077" As a style guide, and they said it violated their content policy. 😅


One of them. I was on astral but it took so long to load I prefered nostr-cli at the time. (I that thats what the tool was called)


Lol thanks. Was dicking around with dalle 3 a bit yesterday.

I hope you can get it working. The file transfer between devices is what i use most probably.


Build out my client base enough so I can quit working in restaurants and work for myself.


+1 sad but true.


Gitea is pretty cool. Up way to late though. GN.


I guess it's just frustrating to get a call at 8pm asking if you can come in tomorrow because somebody got sick when you already had a full day of work planned out for other things.


Maybe one of these days I'll get to a point in my life where I don't have to split my attention so much and work on shit that I truly love.

Don't get me wrong, I will never stop cooking. I love cooking wholeheartedly. But I am getting really sick of the service industry in particular because it is causing me to split my attention too much when I feel like I should be focusing on Building out my fledgling business. Instead, now my entire week is fucked up because a coworker got sick, which I don't blame them for, it is entirely out of their control, I understand Shit happens. But the longer I work for this restaurant, the more they lean on me in situations like this.


Lmao. Yup. Always weird being the one that generally ignores holidays.


Reeees in debian maxi. 😂


as far as I know because its using LN as a base a mint cant make any tokens not backed by a LN transaction. at least in the LNbits version of ecash. could be super wrong.


Hello fellow no good fan 🤝


hello.


Genuinely don't know how I lived my life without KDE Connect before.


Damn these are all fire.


Derp it was incompatable. i guess all my spare ram is all low voltage. 😅


Lmao. From 16 to 32 gigs cuz I found the spare RAM.


Shutting Down my Node for a RAM upgrade. LN will be down for a bit.


Ill mess with it once I clear my plate of client work and maintenance that's on my list.


I'm extremely satisfied that ive gotten better with bash script. Its kinda dumb and small but I now have a mess of scripts tied to hot keys that do a things in one click that used to take me 3 or 4 clicks. 😎


Stacker is a page that I want to keep my eyes on a little bit more. I tried plugging it into my RSS feed and it completely flooded me with a lot of articles that I didn't necessarily care about. 😅 This looks interesting though.


My kaffeir tree keeps putting all of its efforts into growing a single branch that it started growing in the middle of the summer when I got it. I need to figure out how to stimulate growth in the rest of the plant. 😅

Homie goes to all this length and yet he doesn't have a torrent server for media. What a shame. You can definitely Netflix and chill without Netflix. 😂


I might be able to move some Bitcoin around for grocery money now. Woo!


interesting quote from a fantasy novel I have on in the background while I was doing menial Maintenance tasks.

"Keep in mind that many people have died for their beliefs. In fact, it's actually quite common. The real courage is in living and suffering for what you believe."


Love the rei socks myself and A hiking buddy of mine swears by the darn tough ones.


And sadly most wont notice it until its to late.


Lmao looking at 300 sats/vB like "I guess I could move some corn around. At least its not 600+"

But still. Fuuuuuck.


I still play video games occasionally but it comes in waves. But in general I 100% agree. Time is scarce and it's better spent doing productive shit.


100% A node based on a raspberry pie is not long term sustainable. Especially if you want to do more than just run the core. If you want to do lightning, and mempool, lnbits, fulcrum and any other kind of add-on, you definitely need a better hardware.


And the citizens will be placated.


Just trying to drink a beer in peace leave me alone.


Sports bros in shock when they ask me what I think about the game on the TV and I tell them I dont give a wet slap about sports ball.

Best self hosted dashboard? I used to use dashy but nuked it. Looking into others. #asknostr


So far so good, I just have to double check the URL. Make sure it doesn't have anything before I hit delete. And if it has something, how long it's been since I've actually used it, and if I need to still be hosting it.


Lmao hoping Im not breaking things as I nuke subdomains im no longer useing.


Been wanting to swap to CLN for a bit now. 🤬


Love the NoStrudel "image only" timeline.


Thanks for mining an empty block antpool.


Yeah, in another few halving's maybe High on chain fees will be genuinely inevitable. Instead, we have fucking retards, minting jpegs, pumping up the fees again, making on-chain Bitcoin unusable for normal people.


How am I supposed to swap on chain funds onto my node in this fucking fee environment? I'm not going to spend $30 to send a hundred.

I run my own lightning node, but I don't have a shitload of liquidity And I prefer to save the spendable sats there for transacting on lightning not turning into fiat.


Mmmmm. Never used them much.


Lol i saw. 24 sat fee for a LN tx. What wallet is that from?


Like yes I have fiat but all my sidework pays in Bitcoin or stables  (yes eww I know) and when the fiat runs dry I need to use my Bitcoin to eat and pay bills. If all of this really is becasue of fucking jpeg minters then they can all get fucked with rusty rakes.


Not even gonna post what my mempool looks like right now. It would be a shame if anyone wanted to use Bitcoin as...I dunno...money right now.

As someone who has a non insignificant portion of their income in BTC when I need to actualy use the shit as money, fees like this are rather frustrating.


I guess let me know if you get it working.


While it definitely sucks not to sell out of a special that we've been pushing for a little while, The staff absolutely loves the benefit of being able to eat as much of it as we humanly can before it gets 86ed.


Still in the fiat mine. Almost done though.


I've been wanting to rethink my push notification setup. I use NextCloud's push server and it doesn't seem to be working with Amethyst but it works with other things like Molly and Matrix.


Test test.


That's what I use when I'm on Chrome.


Ded.


I know I bitch about browsers a lot, but man is this annoying.


Minor browser rant.

It is genuinely frustrating how much stuff Firefox breaks. I don't know why this is. Maybe it's because of the dominance of Chrome over the General Browser Marketplace So app developers don't take into account Firefox's quirks.

I genuinely prefer to use Firefox, but for some reason in this particular instance my audiobook shelf server will not play some audiobooks in Firefox but it will play the exact same audiobook in both the app and in a Chromium based browser.

Pretty much all of my audiobooks are .mb4 files. Some will play and some won't i do not understand why. And I always feel like a mook crawling back to Chromium. All my audiobooks work in the app though, so I guess I really shouldn't complain In the long run of things it's a super minor and ultimately a non issue.


Oh thats super cool.


1900 is an amazing movie!


+1 I Definitely agree with this considering the current state of lightning. Not to mention the hub and spoke model tends to lead to centralization. It's risky as hell for a pleb to put up multiple Bitcoin just for routing.

Granted I'm not really sure what will replace it. I'm not really a big fan of liquid I think you can run your own liquid node. But that also seems to be going down a custodial route. Should probably play with it a bit. Ark sounded interesting, but there's also no code to look at yet as far as I know.


Looks kinda like tree roots or a topo map.


Ok that one is fucking sick.


At this point in the game if you KYC your genuinely fucking up.

Sorry but also not sorry.

Not to mention 2 ish weeks of battery time if you just use it for notifications like I do.


This has been sitting in my tech that I need to deal with box for about another five-ish months. And I remembered about the marketplace update. So I'm like, oh, this is a perfect chance to test this out.

A fossil 5e smartwatch used for about six months. There's some superficial signs of wear, like some scratches on the facing, but nothing that takes away from the screen.

It's been factory reset and is good to go. Works with Google products and you need the Wear OS app to use it. Battery life on this watch is not the best. It needs to be charged every day, especially if you're using all the fancy settings. You can maybe make it last two days if you turn off things like NFC.

Beyond the battery issues it was a great watch but I moved on to something more privacy respecting.

I'm willing to ship anywhere inside the US.

Every software tutorial is bound to get outdated and fogotten eventually and that can be dagerous.

Furthermore, not only do you need to trust the software providers/maintainers, you also need to trust the tutorial author, which adds an often unnecessary 3rd party.

Make it a habbit to prefer official docs: README, man pages, wiki articles, packaged example configs, etc.

This was a really dope episode. A lot of people talk shit on I guess what's best referred to as a lottery miner In one of the biggest points I hear against devices like bitaxes, Apollo's and other smaller miners that people use for solo mining is that you'll never be able to ROI on your equipment.

But I honestly believe that it's miners like this that will keep Bitcoin running for a long time. Large pools can come and go and are subject to regulatory capture. And well, you might never ROI with an Apollo. One thing I do truly appreciate about their new unit is that it ships with the ability to form your own stratum pool with a shift of a button. Meaning you can point all of your miners into that one solo pool. Hell, you could even be a central point for a neighborhood pool where multiple neighbors pool their resources together. And if you guys hit a block, each one gets a pretty decent payout.

At the end of the day it's still lottery mining, but I do find it pretty cool that they are trying to actually decentralize the Bitcoin mining network.

I just remembered that I wanted to post the recipe as I was heating up leftovers. 😅


## Chef's notes

If you want to kick it up a notch instead of using EVOO or butter, get about 6 slices of bacon and at the first step just cook off the bacon and use that as your cooking fat.

If you want a more crispy biscuit, cook them separately instead of cooking them in the filling. If you do this, simmer the filling on low for an extra 10 ish min, or just until the potato are tender.

If you prefer to make the pot pie in a casserole dish, you can. Simply pour out the filling into a greased baking dish and top with biscuit dough and continue with the recipe as stated.

The filling tends to bubble and make a bit of a mess, so I recommend placing your skillet or baking dish over a sheet pan covered with tin foil to catch any drips and messes.

## Details

- ⏲ Prep time: 30 mins
- 🍳 Cook time: 45-50 mins
- 🍽 Servings: 4-6

## Ingredients

- roughly 1lb of chicken. (Use whatever I prefer thighs)
- 1 medium size onion, peeled and diced
- 2 medium size carrots, peeled and diced
- 2 celery stalks, diced
- 3 cloves of garlic, peeled and minced
- 2 heaping tablespoons all purpose flour
- 2 cups chicken stock/broth
- ½-1 cup whole milk
- ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme plus more for garnish
- 2 bay leafs
- 2 mid sized potatos chopped into small cubes.
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 3-4 tablespoons of olive oil or butter
- For the Drop Buttermilk Biscuits
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ¼ tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp fine sea salt
- 6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cubed
- 1¼ cups buttermilk + 2 tablespoons for brushing biscuits with

## Directions

1. For the Filling
2. Heat your cooking fat. If using uncooked chicken, add chicken pieces to the pan. (If using pre-cooked chicken, don’t add it until later) Cook sautéing chicken for 2-3 minutes per side tell golden brown
3. Add onion, celery, carrots, garlic and potatos. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring often until the veggies start to become tender. Make sure to season well with salt and pepper.
4. Sprinkle flour over the veggies and chicken and stir vigorously for 1 minute to cook the flour a bit.
5. Slowly pour in the chicken broth followed by the milk while stirring. Raise temperature up just a bit if needed and let it come to a very gentle boil. Once it reaches a boil reduce the heat to a simmer and let cook for 5-10 minutes, or until its has reduced and mixture has thickened a little
6. Add the chicken if using precooked or rotisserie, parsley and thyme. Let cook until the veggies are tender, chicken are heated through, and mixture is nice and thick or has reached your desired thickness, about 3-5 more minutes (feel free to loosen up sauce a little adding more milk, cream or broth as needed). Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat and set aside.
7. For The Buttermilk Drop Biscuits
8. Preheat the oven to 425ºF while preparing the drop biscuits
9. Add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, to a large bowl and whisk to combine or pulse to combine in a food processor. Scatter the butter over the dry ingredients and rub together with your fingertips, until it forms a sandy-looking texture with some pebble-sized pieces or use a pasty cutter. If using food processor pulse a few times to achieve the same texture.
10. Pour in the buttermilk and stir until it just comes together into a thick dough and there are no visible signs of flour. This step should only take a minute: be careful not to overmix the dough. (I usually pour out my flour and butter into a bowl from the processor and stir in the buttermilk by hand with spatula instead of pulsing it in)
11. Assembling & Baking
12. Use large cookie scoop or 2-3 heaping tablespoons (or approx ¼ cup) to scoop out dough. Drop dollops of the dough over the top of the pot pie filling to mostly cover the surface. Flatten them out a bit if you wish. Brush the tops of the biscuits with remaining 2 tablespoons of buttermilk.
13. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for about 20-25 minutes until the biscuits are golden brown and fully cooked through and the filling is bubbling. I typically loosely cover pan with foil for the last 5-10 minutes of baking so they don’t brown too much - but are fully cooked through. Feel free to broil for the last minute to get the biscuits deeply golden.

This is a classic stick to your ribs kinda comfort meal. It's savory and warm, just the kinda thing you make when it's been raining all week, and you just need a hearty meal.


Be safe.

Complacency is something that bugs me the most and yet I genuinely don't know how to shake people out of it.

I wrote a short rant called "fuck easy" a couple of days ago. I've been listening to podcasts and after the 5th person complaining that nostr is too hard (is it, really?) I was fed up and typed this out on my phone. I hope that we can return to a point, culturally, where "hard" is okay, just like the first level of the original Super Mario was hard.

Coddling everyone's mind has led us to the upside-down clown world we're currently living in, and coddling everyone's body has led to less-than-optimal health, to put it mildly. In the Bitcoin world, coddling users and making things "easy" has led to Coinbase-by-default and other stupid bullshit, and I truly am fed up with all of that.

There is a better way, but the "better" isn't necessarily "easy."

I'm definitely nowhere near an expert in cigars either. If you haven't tried this particular brand yet, look for acid cigars. I particularly like the one in the blue label. But my tastes lean on the more bold earthy side of things. I'm not really a fan of sweeter tobaccos. There also supposed to be a pretty decent beginner cigar or at least that particular brand is a nice introduction to a spectrum of tobaccos depending on the label you're able to find.


So i swoop 10 and 5 packs when I can.


Im a big fan of Jas sum kral cigars. They have a CBD infused cigar that I'm a massive fan of. Unfortunately, they are stupid expensive and I can never justify spending $200+ on a  box of cigars when I smoke like maybe one every like three months.

Capital gains taxes don’t just steal your wealth, they change the way you make bets

If you have a 70% chance of doubling your money or losing everything, a full Kelly bet is 40% of your portfolio

But if you are taxed 50% on your winnings, your true upside if win is only +50%, not a double (+100%). Based on these odds, you’d only bet 10% of your portfolio for what is otherwise the exact same bet

And if your taxes are 60%, you shouldn’t take the bet at all

This is such an important concept to understand
1) for yourself so you size correctly
2) so you understand how damaging raising taxes is to entrepreneurs and funding investments that have the chance to make the world a better place.

Alpha Rhythm Drum and Bass Podcast: Episode 286 - 'Beautiful Desire'

Episode webpage: https://alpharhythm.com/podcasts/2023/12/4/episode-286-beautiful-desire

Data breaches are also another big problem. Especially when personal information like the home address gets leaked and they see, "Oh, this person had a Binance account with 15 Bitcoin in them, and we have their home address. Let's go crack their skull until they give us their private key."


That there's a mighty fine meth pipe they missed. 😅


Lmao. Haters gonna hate. Monero will never be a store of value, but it is legitimately handy for making anon transactions without all the possibilities to shoot yourself in the foot like Bitcoin.

That's also probably a big reason why I'm such a proponent of no KYC. Just because it makes Bitcoin a lot easier to use sedonymously. If your stack doesn't have KYC to begin with, it's much easier to spend it anonymously.


💯 Would genuinely like to see more outrage at KYC.

This is probably not a reflection on the food cart but a reaction to my own poor eating habits. I'll genuinely forget to eat sometimes when I'm focused on stuff.

Lmao to dev dident read. i like that.


Although I probably should add that technically knots has had this limitation of 42 bytes Almost since it's inception, so the above image is technically wrong.


Feels relevant. OP_RETURN is configurable via bicoinds -datacarriersize flag. It is not technically a consensus rule.

Samurai uses OP_RETURN for both its bip47 paynym and Whirlpool Tx0 construction. The 46 bytes in the whirlpool OP_RETURN contains info to allow the Whirlpool server to verify that a user has paid their fees. Samurai probably does it this way because the limit was increased to 80 bytes in 2014 and hasn't really been changed since.

"IT IS FILTERING NOT CENSORSHIP"

Y'ALL GETTING YOUR DOUBLE SPEAK STYLE TALKING POINTS FROM THE US TREASURY?


MINING POOLS THAT CENSOR BITCOIN TRANSACTIONS ARE AN ATTACK ON BITCOIN. ANY SELF RESPECTING MINER SHOULD NOT MINE WITH SUCH A POOL.

ON A POSITIVE NOTE, POOLS THAT DO NOT CENSOR WILL EARN MORE IN FEES. BITCOIN WORKING AS DESIGNED.


IF A MINING POOL CENSORS COINJOIN TRANSACTIONS THEN THEY WILL NOT GET MY TRANSACTION FEES OR HASH.

If only more applications let you do it. 😅


This is why I get genuinely excited when an app lets me configure my own push server


If I was in the same area as this man, I would absolutely hire him


One interesting thing about the flipper I noticed, and I don't know if this was because I fucked something up or because this is just how it functions, but after swapping firmware, it seems like all of the stuff that I recorded before swapping firmware is no longer parsable by the new firmware. Luckily, it was only a few things, so I just re-added them fairly quickly, but just a heads up.

Also, the ESP32 Wi-Fi Marauder does not seem to notice my dev board. I don't know if that's because I have the wrong version flashed on the dev board now that I've swapped, firmware or not. But I'm still figuring this out.


Yoo


Definitely love the multiple lnbits instances I'm running.


So my cash app card is broken need a new one. Go to order a new one. See I can add some customization, spell out the words "dirty fiat" wait a day..... Customization rejected......bastards.


Glad your well!


The answer is no. Or at least I have the wrong ntag type. It needs ntag424 or something. I bought ntag215s.


Mmmm ok that gives me something to think about as I work on this page... I know that most, for lack of a better way of saying it, "normies" don't give a crap about what tech stack you use. But I've kind of subtly implied that this business relies heavily on FOSS, with an emphasis on privacy For both their customers (ie no google tracking) and their own data that they choose to host with me. (This is a web hosting comapny primaraly)


I guess that's fair. Maybe I shouldn't emphasize that I take Bitcoin and just take everything in fiat and then buy Bitcoin when I  "pay myself" or Whatever. I'm still figuring out the legal ropes of reporting income for running an above board business.


I think that would actually make me the first person in my area to publicly advertise Bitcoin related services. I don't think I would put that in the radio ad, but it would be interesting to put it on my website and see if anyone actually hits me up for something like that.


Also thinking about it a little bit more, I might add a whole Bitcoin section to my company's web page saying that I offer Bitcoin consulting and technical services. So if a business does by chance want to start accepting Bitcoin for whatever reason I can get them hooked up with a pay server or something.


So I realize I'm going to have to take fiat with the local business that I'm ramping up, but I am going to make it very obvious that my preference is getting paid in Bitcoin.

It's going to be an interesting social experiment for me when clients ask me how they can pay and I'll lead with Bitcoin and say I accept other methods as well.


Question. I can just use any NFC tag and program it via LNBITS. Correct?

I still agree with this. I also genuinely think they would be helpful inside of Reddit style communities. Or like nostr-based tech support forum but I think that goes along with the rep system that you were mentioning. (Ie A user gets a bunch of upvotes on a various number of posts for being helpful so they get a badge saying that they're not a total doofus or something.)

Don't just do backups. Think through failure modes. Here are some examples to think through:

BAD: I accidentally deleted a directory and lost several months of work.  RAID immediately mirrored the delete!  Shit I thought RAID would protect me.
GOOD: use zfs or btrfs and take snapshots.

BAD: I've been backing up to a NAS but then I got cryptolockered, and they got into the NAS and cryptolockered that too!
GOOD: disconnect your backup system from the network when it is not running backups.

BAD: I've been making offline backups, but also defying the government. They came and raided the house and took my computers AND the backups.
GOOD: take backups offsite.

BAD: I took my backups offsite to a friends house, but we got into a fight. Now I have no backups.
GOOD: I treat my friends very well.

BAD: I took my backups offsite to a friends house, but it turned out he was an FBI agent.
GOOD: I shake down all my friends, and put them through torture sessions to extract all useful information before I trust them.

Yeah the one at my mart is a coinflip


Don't mind me just on the bus lugging my heav ass CRT and computer to a LAN party.


When I run to the corner store later today, I'll double check to see if it's a coin flip ATM. I could totally be wrong. But I think that's what brand it is.


I'm pretty sure coin flip is the one by my house and they hit me with shotgun KYC and I was buying way under 900.


Also, in the US, for some reason it seems like Bitcoin ATMs are seriously ramping up their shotgun KYC. Had to stop using the one near my house because of that.


Its the *best* time. 😅


Hard to go wrong with the constant stream of good lo-fi.


i stream a lot of no good radio when working / studying.


:RedHeart:


Granted, this isn't necessarily the case on Noster. Most Bitcoiners here, at least I'm hoping, practice self-custody and have actually transacted with Bitcoin and understand how it works.


The frustrating part for me is people who get lost in the NGU. I can understand that price is important in some cases, but in general most people only focus on the price and don't focus on the tech. So you get a bunch of NGU tards who don't understand how to actually use their  Bitcoin and can only see the dollars rise in their fucking Coinbase account.


That also seems to be the consensus. 😂


I generally try not to use Discord a whole hell of a lot. I'm not the biggest fan of it, but I will say, bless small companies with Discord servers.


This seems to be the general consensus. 🫂


It's also pretty easy to shut the fuck up about the price. 😂

Damn near walked away from my fucking dj gig because they asked me to check my knife. What a bunch of retarded bullshit.


One thing I really miss about the Nostrgram app is it allowed you to reorder your badges to display them in any order that you wanted. I wish there was another service like that.

Introducing EXIT

You broke up with your ex; it wasn’t treating you well, maybe it was shadow banning you or your friends; it was manipulating you into becoming your worst possible self.

But over the years you accrued a bunch of quality shitposts, and perhaps some nuggets of wisdom.

Introducing: https://exit.pub:

The last bridge you’ll need to port over your data into the new world of decentralized freedom-tech.

1. Download your twitter archive
2. If Elon agrees, you’ll get a zip file; uncompress it and just use exit.pub to import your data into nostr

✅ original dates are used; whatever you posted in 2009 will show up as posted in nostr in 2009
✅ granular control of which tweets to import (threads, non-replies, replies)
✅ V4V, you choose how much your shitposts are worth
✅ it *should* preserve embedded images
✅ granular control of which relays you want to publish to

Try it out:

https://exit.pub


The one downside to always feeling the need to do something on stage is I end up mixing really really fast which means I need a lot of tracks on my set list. Currently, my setlist is 32 tracks long with roughly 2 hours and 26 minutes. And I'm worried that I might not have enough tracks to make an entire hour long set.


Ah. Imo it makes sense if your already running an lnbits instance. Takes a few seconds to set up so why not.


What being your own mint or the post?


Be your own mint.

One of their better works for sure.


Ngl this track is fire.


Also, I guess to be fair, it entirely depends on where you're getting your taco from. If I go to the hipster spot, it's going to cost me five to six dollars for the taco, and it's going to be full of fancy, fru fru bullshit that is unnecessary. But if I go to the rundown Mexican spot near my house, it's just going to be meat, onions, cilantro, and it's going to be fire and cheap.


I guess that makes my taco index around 5k sats.


We're the fuck are you buying 5$ tacos dear lord. My Favorite taco cart has like 2$ tacos.


I might be a massive nerd but I'm very glad that I have 5 years of construction under my belt.

You can be in my zombie team. Even got a fallback spot sused out.


I'm not going to say what I'm going to do this year because my homie is actually on nostr this year.


I wholeheartedly agree with this sentiment. I've never been a big fan of christmas. Always felt stupid and forced growing up.

But in recent years I have tried to do cool things for friends. A couple years ago I built seed signers for some bitcoin homies.


Damn.


Damn updates dident fix my mint swap issues. An Issue for after the Fiat mines I guess.


Lmao yup.


I tried zapping you for the help but your Lnurl seems to be down.


Baller that fixed it for me. Much thanks!


Ok thanks ill see if i can Figure out how to do that. Thanks for pushing me in the correct direction.


When i do a reset to head, stash, and try to pull again it says i need to fix merge conflitcs.


The only thing I changed was an environment file.


Is it because I forgot to "git stash" before a pull?


Yeah. Specifically, I wanted to update my lnbits instance and when I did a git pull, it said it failed to merge because there was a bunch of changes. When I know for a fact, I haven't touched any of these files It's claiming have merge conflicts.


I have a question for more experienced developers. Why does Git sometimes arbitrarily add HEAD >>>>>>>>>> into my files not allowing Meet a pull, a new version of LNbits, for instance.

Making it so I have to go into these files, delete the fucking head comments, save it, and then pray to God that I can fucking pull the nrw version again When I haven't touched any of these files, there's probably something that I'm missing, but I genuinely don't understand it.

I just wanted to update my version of LNbits and now I have to fix all this merge conflict shit.

Tips for Using Nostr on Tor:

Nostr has horrible Tor support as it’s very slow to connect to all of these relays.  Here’s some tips:

1) Use the Gossip Client on desktop (Linux is supported btw).  We love Whonix, but you could use any other tools such as ParrotOS, Tails, or even just command line software.

Then modify the following settings in Gossip:

a) Turn off avatars
b) Turn the refresh rate for the timeline to the slowest
c) If you’re real laggy, turn off “in-line content” which is images
d) Mute people you don't actually need to see
e) Modify the relays (see the next point)

2) Gossip is great for Tor because not only can you cut out the bullshit, but the client knows which relay to find which person.  This speeds up the process by not asking extra relays

2) If you’re doing controversial speech, consider only posting on Gossip via Tor, but then using a different account on a WireGuard VPN just for general browsing/scrolling of a timeline

3) Another possibility is Primal.net, as they aggregate all the information for you like regular social media.  They have the ability to censor you from seeing stuff just like Big Tech, I’m not saying they will do this… just be aware that they can.  Primal has both a web app and mobile app.  The web app works on Tor browser as it’s NOT behind CloudFlare.  But it is hosted by Hetzner which is the largest German host

Primal is great to look up someone's relays then follow on Gossip


:RedHeart:


GM.

Had a dream where I actualy opened my own restruant / coffee shop. It was also in the middle of a lake. Not sure what that means.


This weekend we will be adding Tor support to all our geo relays. Will not matter as much due to onion routing which choose but will have more on-ramps than our current dedicated #Tor relay.

Site will have updated list once ready. 🤙💜🫂🔒


Another option for you might be BTC payserver but that would require a website build-out. Because I don't think it does things like chat. It's specifically just a payment server for both on chain and lightning.


My childhood self was taking apart computers at a pretty young age Not putting them back together, of course, but taking them apart.. Id probably want to take it apart and wonder why it's so cool. 😅


Ngl that Thermostat looks pretty sick.


I'm a big fan of the Nostr Market plugin for LNbits. It allows for chat, multiple stores for different product types, a few things like that. You would be out of luck for credit card payments because it's a lightning focused app and If you're comfortable with self-hosting, it's something that you can do as well.

You can play around with it here. https://lnbits.com


....what is tindie? There are a lot of ways to accept Bitcoin. It just depends on how you want to go about it.


Lord forgive me but I might dual boot windows for audio work. Unless I can figure out this dumb audio issue. I can't have my audio double timing in the middle of a set.

American football, sorry. I'm in the US.

I live in a college town and apparently there's a big game today that I had no idea what was happening. And my boss just called me saying "Hey, we're going to close in about an hour so don't bother coming into work because we have had no customers all day."


I guess back to set prep after a joint. Lol.


Wow, all of a sudden I like football a little bit more. I just got the entire fucking day off.


I needed a new home screen wallpaper. Gracias.


I will always speak out against custodial lightning solutions because I care about your sovereignty.


Dont mind me. Just Reeeeing into the void.


And of course as soon as I post this I run across the post from Odell that says probably what I could TLDR that post into in a more succinct fashion. 😅


I hope what I said makes a semblance of sense. I tried to organize my thoughts a bit.


Because if somebody is onboarding through me I don't want them to get complacent. Using Bitcoin takes work. Using Nostr takes work. I'm personally not in a massive hurry to onboard a bunch of people who aren't really ready to use it. When I have onboarded people to nostr, I tell them not to even mess with zaps until they're ready to use LN in a self sovereign fasion and feel comfortable navagating nostr. Hell, I personally didn't even use zaps for the longest time until I was comfortable running it myself.

 I still don't think we're ready for primetime in either application. Lightning is hacky and janky and people lose funds all the time with it. Nostr is still very early and hacky and janky. Which is fine if you're okay with that, but a lot of people aren't. This insane hype to get everyone to try and use Bitcoin and Nostr at the same time is admirable but I think lacks A longer term outlook. Especially if we have to get other people to use it through these custodial solutions that cowtow to big tech companies that could get rugged at any point in time. Look at WoS did. Everyone in the US was so hyped about how easy it was and everyone on boarded through them and now nobody in the fucking US can use it unless they decide to use a VPN or something to access it.

In some sense, I will admit that what Primal is doing is definitely admirable. Even if I don't like what they have done in the past through censorship. They have open sourced their entire project (i think) and they are trying to make it easier for "normies" to use it. And in a sense, I definitely appreciate that. But at the same time letting people get complacent through custodial lightning solutions that can rug at any moment on the whims of regulator is bullshit.

I care very much about data sovereignty and the freedom that both Bitcoin and Nostr can bring people And I don't want that to be lost through an overreliance on custodians and KYC soultions. Again see WoS.

I don't know. I'm sorry for the long winded answer. But I won't stop calling out what I consider bullshit. And some KYC custodial lightning solution to me is fucking bullshit.


The shitting will continue until sovereignty improves.

Whats this?


So I don't know if this would be helpful to anybody, but I think this goes along with a Foss or a self-host Friday. But you may or may not be aware that there is a service called 12-foot ladder out there that bypasses paywalls and lately it has got an extremely restrictive on the sites that it will bypass for you as well as consistently being down due to legal reasons I guess.

But I just found out that there is a self-hosted version called Ladder that you can easily spin up in a Docker container and locally host. I haven't tested it super extensively, but so far I've gotten it to bypass financial times and New York Times paywalls.

And thank you for reminding me that cunninglinguists exist.


Big same.


Both statements are true. I initially didn't like it because I mostly saw trolls coming from the relay but ive had some better interactions recently that changed my opinion a bit.


I used to not like that relay but I find myself using it more and more.


There's a couple of tracks where they even pay homage to Doom, which I respect.


Weird I thought I replied but it looks like amethyst didn't post it. Yana to the rescue.

Anyways, yeah, I definitely recommend it. I'm gonna have to get a couple cases to squirrel away at some point.

I'm genuinely not sure what to call this particular genre of hip hop but I really really really love it and I don't see a lot of Americans rapping in this style. It's very heavily sample based.

Daily reminder: there is no such thing as a Bitcoin company (or a nostr company).

A Company is anchored in the State and may be called upon at any time to "comply" by acting as a branch of the State (giving up user details, banning certain users/customers/transactions, etc etc).

"Bitcoin companies" and Bitcoin can't both survive. If Bitcoin keeps growing, we enter the criminalization phase next. Bitcoin companies will comply with the State or be shut down.

"Nostr companies" and Nostr can't both survive either. If nostr becomes large enough, any "nostr company" will comply with the State or be shut down.

The biggest lie that Governments like to propagate is that humans can't spread risk and collaborate without registering a Company (or Security) of some kind. We've been collaborating and distributing risk longer than we've been human, there are indeed ways of doing this without the government stepping in to mediate our relationships.


Yuuupp.


Bitcoin's biggest problem is still privacy.


with his luscious locks and a bod like that who can deny his expertise in anything. 😂


Please forgive the Shrek reference, but it has layers like an onion. 😅
