 Every now and then I’m like “ah man you’re killing me with the lag in refreshing” but ove... 
 Same, I prefer Primal over the other apps I have installed (Nostur & Damus) 
 Llama 405B is insane. Best of all, it’s open source. Never thought I’d be cheering for Zucky #AI 
 Oddly enough, I was recently searching for portable generators. Does anyone know how this compares to more popular generators (Honda seems to be the most popular, but curious for companies) 
 I still post on other socials, but I treat it like a small gamble. Very risky with limited reward...

 Any valid alternatives to Wallet of Satoshi? #Lightning
