I'm about three-quarters of the way through, and I think what's most striking is, besides all the Polish murders that happened earlier in the war. How he brazenly started ordering around Britain and the US's materials Dude, practically had a blank check to get whatever he wanted from the US and Britain. Well, US more so than Britain, but we had lend lease programs with both of them and due to Stalin's insane amount of materials requested, we had to divert things from Britain to be able to go to Russia. At least in the part of the book I'm in right now.


And the wildest part about it to me is that both America and Britain during World War II were completely complacent with all the bullshit that Stalin was doing because he was doing a lot of heavy lifting in the war.  the Russians did a lot of fighting but America and Britain supplied a shitload of the materials that they needed with our insane lend lease programs.


I've been listening to Stalin's War recently. And man, I gotta say, Stalin was a ruthless, shisty motherfucker. Like even if you're not a big history nerd, you generally know that Stalin was a bad person. But then you get all of this shit that's in this particular book shoved in your face. And if even a quarter of it is true, then holy fuck.


Yeah, I would like to ditch Nostream and figure out how to do a paid relay on stirfry i also want to levrage my nostrcheck server more. The noster check server has APIs for user registration and NIP-05 and I'd like to unify that a little bit more so people can actually Register as a user of the server and maybe pay for retention if they want to. And make the Nip-05 section of my services a little less clunky.

Basically I just want to unify all the shit that I host so it becomes a more seamless service.

Doooont do it.


Few reasons. First I might have read too much Anthony Bourdain when I first got into cooking. But after using one and not I have a few reasons.

Texture. If your making a smooth sauce thats gonna be Put the food processor or simmered into oblivion. It really doesn't matter what you do with the garlic. But for pasta And other dishes I prefer to have some sort of defined texture.

Flavor. It's probably the most intense garlic flavor you'll get from other methods of preparing garlic, which I guess is fine if you want hyper-intense garlic, but if you want something more mellow than using a garlic press isn't the way to go. Imo Microplains smashing it with a blade or hand chopping it,  helps you control the intensity of the garlic a little bit better.

I'm also a lazy bastard who hates cleaning the things and I also try not to keep too many one-use devices in my kitchen. Really, it does just come down to personal preferences. But I hate the fucking things. 😂


Please treat your garlic with respect. Sliver it for pastas, Smash it with a flat of a knife blade, but please don't put it through a press. And for all that is holy, do not burn it.


Happiness.

Maybe we have to break nostr first to make it better

# What Can We Get by Breaking NOSTR?

"What if we just started over? What if we took everything we have learned while building nostr and did it all again, but did it right this time?"

That is a question I've heard quite a number of times, and it is a question I have pondered quite a lot myself.

My conclusion (so far) is that I believe that we can fix all the important things without starting over. There are different levels of breakage, starting over is the most extreme of them. In this post I will describe these levels of breakage and what each one could buy us.

## Cryptography

Your key-pair is the most fundamental part of nostr. That is your portable identity.

If the cryptography changed from secp256k1 to ed25519, all current nostr identities would not be usable.

This would be a complete start over.

Every other break listed in this post could be done as well to no additional detriment (save for reuse of some existing code) because we would be starting over.

Why would anyone suggest making such a break? What does this buy us?

- [Curve25519 is a safe curve](https://safecurves.cr.yp.to/) meaning a bunch of specific cryptography things that us mortals do not understand but we are assured that it is somehow better.
- Ed25519 is more modern, said to be faster, and has more widespread code/library support than secp256k1.
- Nostr keys could be used as TLS server certificates. [TLS 1.3](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8446#section-4.4.2) using [RFC 7250 Raw Public Keys](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7250) allows raw public keys as certificates. No DNS or certification authorities required, removing several points of failure. These ed25519 keys could be used in TLS, whereas secp256k1 keys cannot as no TLS algorithm utilizes them AFAIK. Since relays currently don't have assigned nostr identities but are instead referenced by a websocket URL, this doesn't buy us much, but it is interesting. This idea is explored further below (keep reading) under a lesser level of breakage.

Besides breaking everything, another downside is that people would not be able to manage nostr keys with bitcoin hardware.

I am fairly strongly against breaking things this far. I don't think it is worth it.

## Signature Scheme and Event Structure

Event structure is the next most fundamental part of nostr. Although events can be represented in many ways (clients and relays usually parse the JSON into data structures and/or database columns), the nature of the content of an event is well defined as seven particular fields. If we changed those, that would be a hard fork.

This break is quite severe. All current nostr events wouldn't work in this hard fork. We would be preserving identities, but all content would be starting over.

It would be difficult to bridge between this fork and current nostr because the bridge couldn't create the different signature required (not having anybody's private key) and current nostr wouldn't be generating the new kind of signature. Therefore any bridge would have to do identity mapping just like bridges to entirely different protocols do (e.g. mostr to mastodon).

What could we gain by breaking things this far?

- We could have a faster event hash and id verification: the current signature scheme of nostr requires lining up 5 JSON fields into a JSON array and using that as hash input. There is a performance cost to copying this data in order to hash it.
- We could introduce a subkey field, and sign events via that subkey, while preserving the pubkey as the author everybody knows and searches by. Note however that we can already get a remarkably similar thing using something like NIP-26 where the actual author is in a tag, and the pubkey field is the signing subkey.
- We could refactor the kind integer into composable bitflags (that could apply to any application) and an application kind (that specifies the application).
- Surely there are other things I haven't thought of.

I am currently against this kind of break. I don't think the benefits even come close to outweighing the cost. But if I learned about other things that we could "fix" by restructuring the events, I could possibly change my mind.

## Replacing Relay URLs

Nostr is defined by relays that are addressed by websocket URLs. If that changed, that would be a significant break. Many (maybe even most) current event kinds would need superseding.

The most reasonable change is to define relays with nostr identities, specifying their pubkey instead of their URL.

What could we gain by this?

- We could ditch reliance on DNS. Relays could publish events under their nostr identity that advertise their current IP address(es).
- We could ditch certificates because relays could generate ed25519 keypairs for themselves (or indeed just self-signed certificates which might be much more broadly supported) and publish their public ed25519 key in the same replaceable event where they advertise their current IP address(es).

This is a gigantic break. Almost all event kinds need redefining and pretty much all nostr software will need fairly major upgrades. But it also gives us a kind of Internet liberty that many of us have dreamt of our entire lives.

I am ambivalent about this idea.

## Protocol Messaging and Transport

The protocol messages of nostr are the next level of breakage. We could preserve keypair identities, all current events, and current relay URL references, but just break the protocol of how clients and relay communicate this data.

This would not necessarily break relay and client implementations at all, so long as the new protocol were opt-in.

What could we get?

- The new protocol could transmit events in binary form for increased performance (no more JSON parsing with it's typical many small memory allocations and string escaping nightmares). I think event throughput could double (wild guess).
- It could have clear expectations of who talks first, and when and how AUTH happens, avoiding a lot of current miscommunication between clients and relays.
- We could introduce bitflags for feature support so that new features could be added later and clients would not bother trying them (and getting an error or timing out) on relays that didn't signal support. This could replace much of NIP-11.
- We could then introduce something like negentropy or negative filters (but not that... probably something else solving that same problem) without it being a breaking change.
- The new protocol could just be a few websocket-binary messages enhancing the current protocol, continuing to leverage the existing websocket-text messages we currently have, meaning newer relays would still support all the older stuff.

The downsides are just that if you want this new stuff you have to build it. It makes the protocol less simple, having now multiple protocols, multiple ways of doing the same thing.

Nonetheless, this I am in favor of. I think the trade-offs are worth it. I will be pushing a draft PR for this soon.

## The path forward

I propose then the following path forward:

1. A new nostr protocol over websockets binary (draft PR to be shared soon)
2. Subkeys brought into nostr via NIP-26 (but let's use a single letter tag instead, OK?) via a big push to get all the clients to support it (the transition will be painful - most major clients will need to support this before anybody can start using it).
3. Some kind of solution to the negative-filter-negentropy need added to the new protocol as its first optional feature.
4. We seriously consider replacing Relay URLs with nostr pubkeys assigned to the relay, and then have relays publish their IP address and TLS key or certificate.

We sacrifice these:

1. Faster event hash/verification
2. Composable event bitflags
3. Safer faster more well-supported crypto curve
4. Nostr keys themselves as TLS 1.3 RawPublicKey certificates

I landed in the libertarian box.


I think In general, I don't really care how somebody runs their company. But I tend to draw a pretty hard line when there's a company that is, for instance, dumping a bunch of toxic waste, in an irresponsible manner and harming communities around them. You would hope that people running large companies would dispose of waste in a responsible manner, but this is not always the case.

For instance, in my local area, I can think of two specific examples. One was a cabinet company who was dumping their leftover paints and staining materials down a drain that led to a river. They have been heavily fined and are now watched very close by the city. And there was a pressure-treating plant for wood that damaged the area around it so bad that if you live in a 10 mile radius from the plant, you really cant have a garden and Unfortunately, there is a fair amount of housing surrounding the plant, which I think is stupid, but whatever.

It probably does conflict with the former but at least in the specific case of irresponsible waste management that does harm to the community and envroment, there should be some form of penalty and I don't really know how else one would enforce regulations like this without some form of governance.


But I perfer firefox over a chromium browser. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯


yes. In my case I hardly do any web browsing on my phone so its not a massive issue for me. Mull also comes preinstalled with ublock i think.


Oh wow. I just found out mull browser (firefox fork for mobile) can handle extentions now and nos2x-fox works perfectly. Now all the nostr stuff that I cant get ambers bunker to work on I can just use mull + nos2x-fox. Sweeet.

Shit, now I'm curious where I land on this one.


Probably. Im probably what's referred to as socially liberal. I don't really care how people live their lives as long as they don't try to push it onto me.

My stance on corporate restrictions really depends on the circumstance and the particular regulation. Something that holds back businesses from developing, like licensing and certain other regulations that stand in our current environment seem asinine to me. But regulations on say toxic waste management for factories and production companies are probably a halfway decent idea.


This is what I got.

I answered honestly and didn't think about it too much like they suggested and got fairly accurate results despite me being annoyed with some of the vague questions. Which they said some where intentionally vague.

Unless it can achieve the same level of privacy that Matrix can, I personally would not use it.  But discord like apps are useful for group activities and community, having one that's all tied into nostr would be insane.


I use a self-hosted Kuma. Its decent-ish. But the issue is 100% on namecheaps side. Pings are slow and I can't reach anything on those servers any time this happens.


Gonna make my damned house into a data center just to not have to worry about someone else maniging a server for me. Jfc.

I thought my trash can was growling at me. Because when I went outside to throw my recycling in the bin, I started hearing growling noises. So I carefully started poking around my trash and my recycling and trying to figure out if there was like a poor animal trapped inside of one of my bins. There was not. Turns out it was just a possum in the corner who got startled. 😂

What's weird is me, too. At least with some people in my social circles. They're on myriad of medication for depression, anxiety, what have you. While I do understand that there are legitimate chemical imbalances that these medications can help out with, but when you are depressed or anxious or whatever, and even if you do have a chemical imbalance, you don't change anything about your lifestyle. You eat like shit, you don't exercise, you sit in front of a computer screen for work and to play video games once you get home And then complain about how sad and depressed and lonely you are and don't make an effort to change it. You are eating these medications, hoping that it will work. That's what's truly mind boggling to me and unfortunately there are a lot of people in this kind of position. At least according to my own observations, I don't know, I could be speaking out my ass here.


At least in today's environments in America, I would tend to agree.


Just the thought I had as I was walking around the neighborhood Finishing up a podcast. 😅 It's probably not a very original thought. I can't be the only one thinking this.


I listen to a lot of podcasts about privacy and technology and the like and a very common response I seem to hear when it comes to dealing the bad uses of AI an other neutral technologies always seems to come down to somebody preaching for more government regulation, which to me is completely asinine.

I think one of the reasons I like Nostr and Bitcoin and foss tech so much is that it's a group of people who are actively trying to out-compete the bad uses of technology for the good, if that makes any sort of sense.

I don't think that government regulations will fix people's (or goverments) proclivities to use technology in a harmful way. A seriously think the way that we win will be to out compete the bad actors.


LFG.

I might not be enjoying the heat and the extra sun, but the plants apparently do. 😅


This 100%.


I'm really excited to see how some of this stuff finishes. More than half of those plants are my co-workers genetics because it turns out one of my co-workers in the restaurant I work in is a breeder as well. And these are some of his strains that he's going to be releasing before too long.


I'm still not fully convinced on the entire story, but I think aesthetically they did an absolutely amazing job on the show.

I think Vitor explained once that when you close Amethyst, it closes the connection to all your relays. So if you're outside of Amethyst and in Citreine you won't see it connected to anything.

Condense fact from the vapor of nuance.

proper quote from Snow Crash.


Yeah, that's fair. I'm not a really big fan of Cloudflare, but I do use them to hide my home IP I use nginx for the reverse proxy. I should just move it to one of my other servers though that's not at home.


My legs feel like logs made of lead.


It's pretty simple to spin up. They have a Docker version, and if you want to have a little bit more of an involved setup, you can do it without Docker.


One of my small pleasures of working in a kitchen, especially an extremely small kitchen, is being able to tell the customer, no, they're not right and I cannot and will not do what they're asking. 😂


I prefer the self-hosted searxng. It's customizable as hell. Pretty decent search results.

I know some people trust and use kagi....Even if they're privacy oriented and you pay to use them, making them a little bit less incentivized to sell your information, it's still another company and at this point I have such a deep distrust for any fucking company with my own data that if I can self-host it, I will. That's just me though. I'm sure kagi a decent search company. At least so far they haven't done anything nefarious that I've read about.

Also, unless I haven't really found the option yet, I don't like that you can't restore an existing Monero seed in Garnet. Kind of makes it a pain in the ass if you're using more than one device.


It's definitely interesting. I'm still fiddling with it a little bit. I don't like that Garnet Reverts to the old model of handling relays. I like amethyst's relay selection now that I've gotten used to it


Meh the choice is nice. I like seeing a client that allows both instead of one or the other.


Oh nice you can zap and do the monero thing in Garnet.

Oh man, fresh coconut water is the best. Straight out of the coconut. Can't fucking be beat.

I guess in the Tweaker's case, copper is just valuable enough to where you only have to steal a small amount of it to be able to turn it in and get money for drugs. And the drugs are relatively cheap. Doesn't help that there seem to be specific metal recycling yards that cater specifically to people obviously selling stolen goods.


Yeah, I already do that. phones are off and in a Fairaday, bag if I'm discussing something important.


It's because they criddle out of their hovels to steal shit for more drugs. (There's a pretty bad meth and heroin problem where I am. Lots of copper theft.)


Ah ok. Gonna add that to my slang repertoire. I like it better than criddelr and tweeker.


Question. What is a nitty?


Sonofabitch


physical mail, not email. Damn it.


Lol. Realistically, I think the last owner of this house was really old because we still get unsolicited AARP mail. But this is probably like the third or fourth time I've gotten hearing aid related email and I've moved twice since I was with her. (We're still friends, just not together anymore.)


Damn, you date one deaf girl and then you start getting junk mail for hearing aids. 😂 how do they know.

yeah that's totally fair. But Oregon is definitely starting to feel the impact of longer term droughts and fire season seems to be getting worse every year.


Not sure where you think I am. 😅 im in oregon.


Lmao. I'm not entirely sure when I started calling it fire season. I know that firefighters call July the start of fire season, or at least some wilderness firefighters I know.

Things have been kind of getting worse though mostly due to drought. Especially in the last five years or so.


Fire season. Every year around july my whole state seems to be on fire. Fucks with backpacking plans.


Le sigh. Fire season kinda sucks.


Soon most nostrchek servers will have it.


Shit said fennal twice.


I told him it really depends on what flavors you're trying to go for.  I cook a lot of Mexican, Asian, and Italian flavors. So I typically keep interesting spices like star anise and smoked cardamom pods and green cardamom and tamarind paste, fennel, cumin seeds and powder, lots of turmeric both ground and fresh root, poppies, saffron, fenugreek, cloves, various curry powders about five different salts, couple different kinds of pepper, rock sugar....cayenne, coriander, garlic, and onion powder. Grand Masala, fennal. And that's just the dry stuff. 😅


Fixed.


Oh, mainnet worked fine for me.


Bha right need to fix that.


Friend asks me about spices I keep on deck. 😂

*Begin massive info dump.*


Yeah, I'm not sure what they're doing different, but it is definitely a bit different.


It's a bit buggy, but has potential. I sent some monero tips just to test it out. Wallet seems to be hit and miss, but it works decently when it works.


Mabey. 👉👈


I guess when you frame it like that, that's completely fair. When you're already balls deep in the Bitcoin then seeing shit like this is a little bit disheartening but More people will hopefully "get it" when they see their favorite politicians or influencers talking about it. I guess


Lool


Smash the rock.


I don't really know who I would have on that primary stage though. It's just kind of wild to me to see a bunch of Bitcoiners who are supposedly trying to fight the state snuggle up to and simp for politicians. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯


Oh, I wasn't saying meh about Snowden. I could see how that could be misconstrued.

The meh was mostly because the rest of the people on the list are...not really relevant besides Cathie Wood at least to me. I could care less what Politicians think about Bitcoin. I'm not gonna vote for them anyways. I haven't really listened to a lot of brand personally because I kind of find him annoying, but that's just personal taste.


Local corner store does the shitty little stuffed pizza, Philo dough things that are utterly delectable but are probably killing me.


I just noticed snoweden. Probably the only one I would keep on that list but meh.


actual developers instead of talking heads and politicians.


God damn it 😂


Everything is default. Let me check.


It's pretty slick. I've been doing this to sign into myself hosted Nostrudel.


Yeah, I probably need to restart something. I fat fingered and turned off my node while cleaning and usually when I turn off my node I also need to restart my other instances of lnbits so they can start talking to each other again.

Fair fair.


Also, I guess it depends on whether or not you're talking about also accepting fiat payments or just like a lightning POS type thing.


Prolly square + zeus or btcpay server. Otherwise, you have LNbits.

I know other servies are out there, but those are probably the only three that I would use.


It always takes me a little while to realize you're saying "facts". Im so slow with Hieroglyphs. 😂

fucked up part is I know that there are pictures of a younger me that is on photobucket but i never had an account


I've know I've mentioned this in posts with you before, but I think, unfortunately, for better or worse, I am so jaded about American politics that I have genuinely lost hope for any sort of political solutions, so I'm kind of just sitting here waiting for the Empire to crumble. So I intentionally do not focus on politics and just try to focus on what I can do on a daily basis to help myself and help those around me.

I still vote, even though I think it's a futile exercise, especially considering there's no way to vote for or show your discontent in the political system other than doing a pointless write-in, or I guess not voting at all, which I'm weirdly not okay with even though I understand most people's argument, saying that they don't vote out of protest.

But I definitely agree with you on the whole like what you focus on is what you see more of. When I was more concerned about the US political process, I saw more of it and I was generally a more angry person because I was so focused on what the "other side" was doing.


I apologize on behalf of America. 😅


definitely not interested in political shenanigans.


Apparently so. I usually train until my branches kind of snap a little, but that is some incredibly pliable plant material.


Proper.


I don't care how good with computers you are, there is always a pucker moment when you fat finger the wrong power switch when you're deep cleaning your house.

I didn't break anything, but I was definitely concerned for a few minutes.


Maybe her and Hawk tua girl can collaborate on something.


That is some serious training.


For some reason, part of me wants to say they're gonna put Kamala up to bat, but who knows. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯


Depends on context. I don't mind it, but there are ways that certain people say it where it sounds demeaning, that I don't like.


My only real delineation is distance and intent. Like, I can walk to the store and it's only a couple miles. I'm there and back. No problem but For whatever reason I wouldn't call that a hike. But a hike, usually taking more than a few days and Instead of going a couple miles, I'm usually going eight miles or more a day.

Maybe it's mindset because technically it's still just walking. I dunno.


Damn, hand-squeezing three pounds of lemons? Even as a cook I wouldn't want to do that. Props to him.


It's a cross between animal cookies and grape ape, I think. I haven't actually looked up the genetics, but it's one of the strains I grew last year.

tastes pretty fruity and the oil pressed from it tastes like Starburst 🥰


Grape animals.


I was just debating on what strain I wanted to smoke for this nice Sunday.


Lol yup.


He's probably a huge contributing factor to why I'm such a fucking cynic. I've read a lot of Vonnegut at a formative age.


I know my Vonnegut.

Not by default. I use syncthing for that but I already run that at home...I think Obsidian has that kind of stuff built into it. If I wasn't already using Logseq, I probably would look into Obsidian.


I do have a notebook though for when I'm working away from a computer and need to jot things down quickly.

Lol yup. Its just more free sats if you dont want the xmr.


And so far at least I'm having problems with amethyst already installed on my phone. It's wanting to update amethyst like it's the same app and Obtainium doesn't recognize it as something different yet. At least I can install it in an alternate profile on graphene.


Lol. On one hand, I'm kind of stoked to tinker with this. On the other hand, I'm like, oh yay another feaking app to install.


I know Nostr is pretty dismal when it comes to actual privacy, depending on your own personal setup. But it's pretty fucking cool to see actually private payments worked into a client


Fair point.


It's a free protocol. Everything will probably be tried.


Yeah, after I posted that, I was like, well, I hope that's not misinterpreted, whatever.


Obtainium seems to think that the app is amethyst. I can't add it to obtainium yet.

Two more shifts, and then I get a bunch of time off, including a backpacking trip. I'm so excited.

Well, time off from the restaurant at least, which means I just have more time for personal projects and nerding out on other stuff.


Has Jellyfin gotten better with dealing with multiple copies of stuff?

For instance, my roommate and I are currently using plex, but the main reason we used it is because when I spun up jellyfin, it couldn't handle that the fact that some of our hard drives had the same content. And the only way to remove it from jellyfin seeing it was to delete it off the hard drive, which we didn't want to do.


Unfortunately, my sister might have the same response. 😂

I definitely will admit that Bitcoin did change the way that I looked at a lot of things but didn't lead me to be religious.


Thankfully, Im at work and don't have anything important to say, or even any interesting brain vomit.

Continue is pretty cool. I can ask coding questions (I use Gemma for chat), it has code completion (does not work for me with deepseek-coder-v2 nor codegemma, but starcoder-v2 works). It can refactor code and has simple RAG with "@codebase" reference, as seen on the screenshot.

I have. It's an okay story I guess. I still don't get it.


What I was trying to say is I don't understand the people who come to Bitcoin from a religious angle. Or the people who try to hook religion into Bitcoin. I don't give a shit who uses Bitcoin.


Definitely seems to attract a lot of religious people. I don't understand it, but to each their own.  I'm going to save this to read for later.


I'm kind of starting to realize this for myself. I really like Nostr, but I definitely don't need to be on here as much as I probably am. 😅

Yesterday the Amethyst team released an update that allows you to select custom media servers, if you use #amethyst change the media provider to one from this list:

https://github.com/quentintaranpino/NIP96-compatible-servers

My opinion? Don't use the big 3 (nostr-buid, void-cat, nostrcheck-me) use any of the others.

By the way, all nostrcheck-server instances that upgrade to  the coming 0.6.0 version will support Blossom 🌸 and NIP96 🟣simultaneously. Allowing the user to decide which way of uploading files will be imposed in the future 😎

Good morning #nostr !! 😀🫂🥳

Some of you noticed that I tested a new custom BOLT12 powered "Lightning address" yesterday and had asked for a guide. Here it is!

How to setup a BOLT12 "Lightning address"

I used phoenixd, but you can also use Phoenix Wallet for this too.

1) Download and extract the phoenixd wallet server daemon. You can download it from their GitHub page here: https://github.com/ACINQ/phoenixd

2) You don't need to configure it. You just need to launch the daemon. It will automatically do everything else for you, generating seed words, connecting to the ACINQ LSP, providing you with 2M sats of inbound liquidity to get started, and creating your Lightning offer. You can run this on your existing Bitcoin and Lightning node, desktop computer, etc. Launch it with the command: ./phoenixd

2a) You need to decide on how to make this process always run in the background. You can be lazy and setup a screen, you also be lazy and pipe the output to /dev/null, or you can setup a systemd service.

2b) I setup a systemd service. It's easy and the best way to handle the management of the node, IMO.

3) You will need a domain that you can edit the DNS settings. You will need to enable DNSSEC. This usually requires working with the domain registrar and where your domain records are being hosted, coordinating together and copying and pasting a few fields. It's not hard.

4) Next, you need to add a new DNS record entry. Choose the TXT record type. Configure the TXT record with the following information:

NAME = yourname.user._bitcoin-payment
CONTENT = bitcoin:?lno=your_lno_offer

For example:
derek.user._bitcoin-payment

bitcoin:?lno=lno1zrxq8pjw7qjlm68mtp7e3yvxee4y5xrgjhhyf2fxhlphpckrvevh50u0qv269gw5jl4r3tzduka09pps9rufy7dw8rjl957m6g3t5d5e8gyhcqsrxaemp0q929hz2869l23tgrftggk7wry08aptcu2ccey93xhesefqqvev8d3kh0yk2m3w7xc5fn3h9pkvmj20u53rhakpzuge5e7ccy52gcq7hpf5y866vlkpculf38mn4lyrqkyvqtmrz3hy0desrnzrpvjgm6d57t5y24h97ls2xme3nwk8rrz4dqp52qqsy25a00kv770lqyd9qdj3nu7665

This would give me derek@mydomain.com as a BOLT12 Lightning address.

That's it. Good luck!


Hours of listening to random music and playlists and stopping to take notes when I find something I find cool. 😅

Odd. The ones in my area are the worst 😅. I have farmers markets for veggies (in summer months at least) and I can find most of what they sell cheaper other places. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Im glad they work for you though.


Depends. If I'm working in a kitchen, then every single day, otherwise I'll go every other day.


Maybe I'm just not a fan of that particular type of establishment. It's overpriced garbage IMO. 😅

So this is a total first world problem, but I live in an area where we have a couple different competitors for GB fiber now. But I live in a neighborhood that has buried cables, so none of these gigabit fiber places have brought their service to our neighborhood because our cables are buried underground, the way they should be.

These prices are of course $50 or more cheaper than what I'm currently paying right now for a shitty internet connection through Comcast.

run your own relay. that's it!

you can do this in a multitude of methods. here's just a few simple examples to get you started.

on Android you can run a relay on your phone: https://github.com/greenart7c3/Citrine

on Windows you can run a relay on your computer: https://github.com/CodyTseng/nostr-relay-tray

on Umbrel/Start9/Mynode you can run a relay on your own server: https://apps.umbrel.com/app/nostr-relay

if you want a DIY method, you can run a variety of relays too:

I'm hoping to have the rebuild and articles updated. Hopefully, no later than next week, depending on what my schedule looks like. 😅


Thank you. I'm actually currently rebuilding the whole site and updating the information on there and I actually noticed that today when I was going through my resources page. Thank you for the heads up though.


Man, I haven't been called a liberal in a decade or so. 😂

Meh, I'd still say it's a good day.


I'm probably due for a reread on that book.

Makes me feel like I have too many morals. Definitely would not have thought to put up a t-shirt about it in under an hour of the event happening.


Damn.

Right, you know the dad bought that shirt for him. 😂


Dude, I was at the mall the other day for the first time in probably years. This little fat kid was running around with a shirt that said, I love milfs. I was ded.

Some notes on this:

Every morning I get up and work for bitcoin, but this is a a bit more literal... 😜 As many of you know I build and sell signers as a way to get them into more people's hands, and to support my individual work on our project. The revenue from the signers and other things I sell in my online shop (https://btc-hardware-solutions.square.site; Entropia, Go Kits, SeedKeepers, etc.) is how I'm able to cover expenses related to the project, and to travel to conferences and meetups where I can share information on SeedSigner and what I've learned during my personal bitcoin journey relative to cold storage, given my unique background. Here and there I'm also able to help cover some of our family's expenses.

When we recently transitioned to a new approach to user donations at https://donate.seedsigner.com I intentionally withdrew myself as a donation recipient. I wanted our most active technical contributors to be the ones benefitting from donations, directly receiving periodic digital monetary expressions of gratitude over time as the project grows and reaches more and more bitcoiners. (As a side note -- if you're a user or otherwise receiving value from our project, I'd encourage you to send some sats their way via the above URL.)

As for myself, I've always offered to sell signers p2p for bitcoin via DMs / email, but for a long time I've been wanting to level up in that regard. Over the last weeks I've finally gotten a proper LN node set up, where I also run nostr:npub155m2k8ml8sqn8w4dhh689vdv0t2twa8dgvkpnzfggxf4wfughjsq2cdcvg and a modest (for now) web presence. I need to express a lot of gratitude to nostr:npub1l5pxvjzhw77h86tu0sml2gxg8jpwxch7fsj6d05n7vuqpq75v34syk4q0n, nostr:npub1r7psmkr4zv93xnal8un6d8hvmpsn5jvhfzn3kk38rfcel6awznks7znspg and nostr:npub126ntw5mnermmj0znhjhgdk8lh2af72sm8qfzq48umdlnhaj9kuns3le9ll for their help as I've worked to become more of a 1st class bitcoin citizen.

With planned trips to Nashville, Atlanta, and Amsterdam to represent the project on the horizon, I'm looking to stack some sats that will help me continue to spread the SeedSigner gospel of a more trustless, more self-reliant approach to saving with bitcoin. So I've set up this small online store where I'll be selling some of the items from my Square shop for sats. I'm starting with milled aluminum signers (kudos to nostr:npub1l2xfcjd8k5l3c6mkpd95uptdnxcqw5yms0pz57l7v46qzgdju0msy96ndl for his continued amazing work on these enclosures) and I'm offering a small discount and free protective case for paying with bitcoin.

If you've been looking for the right opportunity to upgrade your SeedSigner experience, or if you've been waiting for a decent deal on one, please consider supporting my work in this way -- the URL is below.

Otherwise, a big thank you all for the kindness and support that so many bitcoiners have shown me over the last couple of years -- I hope to get to shake your hand at an event soon. 🧡🙏

I have a lightweight sun shirt that I wear when I'm backpacking nowadays. At least during the heat of the day when I'm hiking in exposed areas.


Depends on where you're going to be hiking, but if you're worried about sun exposure, then a lightweight long sleeve shirt and pants with a hat is your best bet.

This is what I'm trying to do with my web business. So far, all of my clients have been word of mouth, so I'm doing okay in that regard. I just need more word of mouth. 😂


This is part of a larger quote but seth says this really well.

"We forgot that there is a human element here. And if humans are arrested or scared enough, these things fall apart very quickly, especially because the choice is made for Bitcoin as a protocol, as a piece of software, as a tool meant that all privacy had to happen at the app layer. So people had to build and run businesses that had to be centralized in some way to be able to provide privacy to people on Bitcoin......

......Because I don't see this stuff working if there's not access to personal privacy. And so it's kind of feels like we're starting at square one, trying to figure out how we'll make this actually freedom money, not just mimetically freedom money, not just something that sounds nice when we're talking on podcasts or tweeting about it, but money that actually is resistant to adversarial environments and actually is resistant to the state."

If you believe what some people have written the church originally targeted women because the church was trying to take over the religious experience. And women were the mixers of the psychedelic Eucharist that gave people an experience with God.


I'm definitely not denying the Bitcoin integration is extremely powerful.

But for a new user it might be a lot to take in and more than they're ready to absorb at the moment because Nostr is already a whole new paradigm (I kind of hate this buzzword, but I can't think of anything else right now) in and of itself. At least when compared to traditional social media.


That's actually something that irks the shit out of me as well. For at least eight months when I started using Nostr, despite already running a lightning node, I did not set up zapping. And the pushyness of people to get none Bitcoiners into using it probably drives away a large amount of people.

But whatever, I do also understand that this is a protocol built mainly by Bitcoiners. So I don't think that's going to go away anytime soon.


Card*


Yeah, at least in my experience, most car shops are pretty damn money grubby and we'll definitely try and fuck you on those kind of sales. But they also know that it's a pain in the ass to go and try to sell the rare and expensive cards on eBay or some other site.. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯


Ooof. This is why I don't fuck with card shops for sales.

Just today to test this out I posted a recipe this morning and it almost instantly showed up on the Npub Pro page which is pretty slick.


Yes, in the npub Pro page, you can specify hashtags. So technically, what it's doing is it's searching for anything that is tagged with #nostrcooking, which is a hashtag that automatically gets appended to zap cooking posts. And in my other menu tab, anything that I tag with #Foodster shows up.


The amount of websites that break because I use VPN is truly fucking frustrating.

## Chef's notes

Make sure you cook them thoroughly on the skin side first to render out as much of the fat as possible and ensure maximum crispiness.

This goes great with rice.

## Ingredients

- 6 skin-on, bone-in chicken thighs (about 2 pounds total)
- Kosher salt
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil, preferably toasted, divided
- 1 pound medium carrots, scrubbed
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Sriracha
- 2 tablespoons unseasoned rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 1-inch piece ginger
- 3 scallions
- Toasted sesame seeds (for serving)

## Directions

1. Preheat oven to 425°. Heat a large dry skillet, preferably cast iron, over medium-low.
2. Pat 6 chicken thighs dry with paper towels and season all over with salt. Rub only skin side of thighs with 1 Tbsp. oil.
3. Transfer thighs skin side down to skillet and cook until enough fat is rendered to cover bottom of skillet, about 5 minutes. Once skin starts to brown, increase heat to medium. Rotate skillet to encourage even browning. Carefully lift up thighs to allow hot fat to run underneath. If thighs are stubborn and don’t want to release, let them go a bit longer.
4. While thighs are cooking, cut 1 lb. carrots into 4" segments.
5. Cook thighs until meat is opaque all around the edges and skin is deep golden brown, 10–12 minutes total. Transfer skin side up to a plate.
6. Pour off all but about 2 Tbsp. fat from skillet (you just want enough left to form a thin layer) and heat over medium-high. Add carrots and try to arrange so all are side by side in a single layer in direct contact with skillet. Cook, undisturbed, until lightly charred on first side, about 5 minutes. Turn carrots so charred side is facing up, then season lightly with salt.
7. Cook carrots on opposite side until lightly charred, about 2 minutes. Turn off stove and transfer skillet to oven. Roast until a toothpick, skewer, or cake tester easily pierces surface of carrot but encounters resistance in the center, 8–10 minutes.
8. While carrots are roasting, stir 2 Tbsp. soy sauce, 2 Tbsp. Sriracha, 1 Tbsp. rice vinegar, 1 Tbsp. honey, and remaining 1 Tbsp. oil in a small bowl. Scrape peel off of ginger root with a spoon; discard peel. Grate ginger into bowl with microplane, then stir to combine.
9. Carefully remove skillet from oven (the handle will be hot!) and place on stove. Arrange thighs over carrots and drizzle sauce over. Return to oven and roast until chicken thighs are cooked through (an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part near the bone will register 165°), juices run clear, sauce is caramelized on chicken skin, and carrots are tender all the way through, 12–18 minutes. Remove from oven and let rest 10 minutes.
10. While skillet is resting, thinly slice 3 scallions.
11. Transfer chicken and carrots to a platter and drizzle pan juices over. Top with scallions and sesame seeds.

One-Skillet Roasted Sesame Chicken Thighs

Bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs are the dinner gods’ gift to home cooks everywhere. Each one is its own perfect portion of crispy skin and juicy meat that’s pretty impossible to overcook.

This dish is quick and simple to throw together.

I was gonna say I'm pretty sure they had a browser download for Android.


Although I would argue using tor plus a vpn is bit redundant unless you need serious privacy. As long as your proton VPN is always on and routes all of your traffic on your phone, you're generally okay. And you don't need to pile tor on top of it. Also it can cause serious latency, making a lot of apps unusable.

I use orbot for specfic apps. For instance mull allows split tunneling, meaning my apps that actually require the Tor network, I don't pass through the VPN first. Like robosats, and Samurai when I was using it.


Orbot.

Moving away from wix is your best bet if you want BTC payments. BTC payserver integrates well with Shopify and WooCommerce. Nerver got it to work right on Wix.
