 GM #nostr #coffeechain start you Sunday with a delicious #latte https://image.nostr.build/f007fa02f96eb8692e11fdcf80d5d2bad3b9affe1d8960fcb968ac185754ee43.jpg  
 Thanks! Still need more consistency, I get them all over the place. Some ugly ones, some come out pretty. 

Thank you for the sats btw. 
 Damn it I just realized that mass adoption means that a bunch of folks that I don’t like will b... 
 Right. And scammers and advertising spammers and you name it…. We’ll see how manageable it will be by then. 

Spawning an unlimited amount of bots that to spam every account in sight  seems quite easy to do programmatically. I hope the #nostr  will be able to allows us to protect ourselves from that.  
 So, Biden is out of the race.  
 Are there any Spanish speaking folks here who like reading and bitcoin and want to help me out fo... 
 I can help you out with that.  
 What's the point of not reusing #bitcoin 's addresses if we also need to consolidate #utxo s from... 
 We actually don't need to consolidate utxos. It only makes sense to consolidate when you have lots of small utxos which are not likely to be spent separately.

UTXOs are like dollar bills and coins. If you have a jar full of pennies, it makes sense to consolidate them to a $50 bill so you can spend it easier. In Bitcoin terms, that would mean that you might want to consolidate small UTXOs when network fees are low, so you have big UTXOs available to spend when fees are high.

But if you have a bag full of $100 bills, or a bunch of UTXOs worth $100 each, it makes no sense to consolidate them, unless you plan to spend a lot more than $100 in one transaction. 

So as long as you don’t plan to buy your house or your yacht and pay in Bitcoin, keep those $100 UTXOs separate, as it helps keeping your total balance more private.

 Good morning. That’s a beauty! 
 I wanna bake a cake this afternoon. 
I am trying to choose between lemon cake with coconut frosti... 
 If it’s for desert, I vote for lemon cake because it sounds lighter. 

Carrot cake with chocolate frosting sounds like it would fill you up for the day and you wouldn’t want to eat it after a meal.  
 WHO NEEDS nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm INVITE CODES!? 
 I would like one please  
 That’s running the test directly in the router. WiFi speed is much lower. Not sure if I’m connected to the main router or a repeater though.

 Not at all. It’s residencial fiber and it costs about $30 per month. 
 Uploading latte art vey fast.  
 Seems like it, according to the speed test. But I’m not sure, because I’m paying less. They change the speeds and the prices all the time and the one I have might not be available for purchasing anymore.  
 My tarot website is already complete and working,however I don’t know how to make the button th... 
 https://www.appointlet.com/ is a better alternative to Calendly. The free version has more features than the free Calendly and the paid version is also cheaper.  
 That depends on how your webpage was made. If you don’t know, then you probably have to contact the person that made the webpage for you.  
 Thanks! I think I was adding too much air lately and the milk was getting too foamy. Less bubbles -> better latte art. 
 If #nostr is pretending to be really censorship resistant, why are multimedia files stored on servers? Servers can be tracked down and shut down. Wouldn’t it be better to encode and include multimedia attachments into the notes themselves? #asknostr #nostrprotocol

I get it that it would be harder on the relays, but I think the benefits would make up for it. 
 That’s an interesting approach. Are those multiple upload locations all referenced in the note as so clients can loop through them and download whichever is available?
