Notes by finch ☦️ | export

 It’s in reference to Matthew 6:19-22, where Christ teaches us to not worry about storing up earthly treasures that will eventually pass, but store up treasures in heaven.

It is a call to not live in comfort and earthly riches, but to give back what we can to God, His Church, missions, and the poor; to give alms.

By doing this you are laying up for yourself treasures in heaven that will last for all eternity. 

Conversely, if you do not do this at all, you are setting yourself up for failure and will be eternally poor. 
 It took me a while to develop my orange pillers meme but it sunk in now 😂 other ppl see it too... 
 I remember when you first came up with it. I proudly shilled it right away because it was hilarious 
 Go to Divine Liturgy tomorrow ☦️ 
 Awesome. Are you Orthodox? 
 Glory to God! 
 Meanwhile on X, people are willingly doxing their IDs to an Israeli Identity Intelligence Agency to get their bluechecks. https://image.nostr.build/b3fbc227750c759adfaf9fdbcad077a04829ca2a2133a814091f7db132904ed0.jpg  
 Welcome! 
 Pretty much, yeah. You dox your ID to pay with card for the subscription. I’m not sure exactly where the actual ID verification comes in; my guess is when you want to start making money. 

Don’t have a blue check so not sure. 
 Inb4 price goes back up and he gets all cocky like he was bullish the whole time 
 The orange piller way 
 Thankful for Jim, who will pump our bags with his negativity around bitcoin

 Sparrow + Fulcrum is a pleasure to work with. So freaking fast! Thanks nostr:npub1hea99yd4xt5tjx8... 
 The best 
 We have a long way to go. 
 i fucking hate hardware wallets

except seedsigner 
 I love my Foundation Passport tbh 
 no way that was a hack 
 likely a scheduled tweet set to the wrong day 
 Unbelievably hilarious 
 THE ETFS HAVE BEEN APPROVED BY THE SEC. 
 probably nothing 
 That is really freaking cool. Actual innovation in a difficult market segment. Price is good. Might have to order one and see if it lives up to the hype. 
 Learning vocabulary from Sponge Bob SquarePants is high signal.

 Only a 3k candle today? Rookie numbers. 
 200k by conference day? 
 @primal @miljan some feedback on latest version of Primal iOS:

- note editor experience feels off. I can't double tap space bar to insert a period, and sentences do not start with caps enabled

- would be great to have push notifs for zaps

- i should be able to paste an LN invoice to pay out of my LN wallet without scanning a QR code. Might want to consider being able to also upload an image of a QR LN invoice to be able to pay as well 
 anyone here familiar with the Samourai Wallet? I have some questions

#asknostr #privacy #freedom... 
 100%. Dojo ftw. I use RoninDojo

 Let me know if you have questions along the way. Spent many hours down that rabbit hole. Pretty familiar with the tools. 
 Watch this entire series, slowly, and in order.. digest the information.

 10k off MSRP plus free charging for 6 months was wayyyy too good to pass up.  Not getting anywher... 
 Yep exactly 😂 we just did a 2,000 mile road trip home in it. We were visiting family for Christmas half way across the country and decided to pull the trigger. 

And that road trip was basically free minus food and hotel lol 
 Bought a Tesla for our family car. Ngl it’s epic. 

~4 second 0-60; a true mommy missle lol 
 Those year end deals were insane. That’s why we picked one up. Went with a Long Range Y w/ 7 seats. 

Probably would have went Performance if they had a 7 seat option. 
 While I have sent sats to the Primal wallet lightning address from Phoenix and Stacker News, I ha... 
 The scan QR code feature should work. Scan an LN invoice. They'll be adding the ability to paste a LN invoice soon is what I've heard. 
 Why isn't there a simple website that converts satoshis to dollars for me easily? 
 https://xsats.net/SAT/USD/ 

is pretty good, maintained by @djbooth007 
 Inb4 they pivot to shilling the extremely outdated joinmarket over the obvious best choice on the market - Whirlpool 
 hopefully the ability to send directly to lnurl  will come in a future update with out invoices. 
 Little birdie told me that pasting ln invoices is coming in the next update. 
 Ngl the Primal Lightning wallet UX is straight fire. Gonna continue using it moving forward. 
 I only play a few times a year these days, not consistent enough to establish a handicap. Probably around a 5 based on how I've played the last couple of days. 
 Goal for 2024 is to play a couple times a month and get a handicap. 
 Haha I do play a lot but not as much as the internet thinks. 

I used to be more serious about it...

 I think it’s safe to say I lost the bet @ODELL 

On the plus side, my golf game is looking good, I may get some of those sats back 
 What’s your handicap? 
 It seems you play enough to be tracking every round for a legit handicap. 
 Taking a golf trip to Bandon soon. 

IYKYK 
 Random guy in the elevator told me bitcoin will be $750k by end of next year 

What a fucking bear 
 Must have been rand0mguest3 
 @ODELL 9 days left, there’s a still a chance 
 Now just need a 4th, preferably someone pro-clear 
 Is weird to be checking the fee rates everyday? I need some cheap blockspace god damn it 
 Need a tool that notifies us when it drops below anchor set threshold 
 Pretty hard not to be bullish right now. 
 100 MB max file size? Pretty small in the era of 4k. Plans to increase? 
 Cool, thank you! 
 I created a iOS Shortcut that enhances a YouTube share link with a timestamp that you provide. It also trims off the tracking part of the share link. 

You can:
- Activate right from share sheet
- Copy to clipboard and manually run the shortcut
- Use the shortcut in any automation you want (action button?)

 Wow I really messed that up. Let me fix. 

“Share > More” works with recorded live streams (which is what I was testing) but not regular videos. 
 Fixed, use this new one: https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/1fad7b3bc154402f9b210b26d7b7a542

Thanks for finding that bug! 
 Please use this link, as I corrected a bug and had to reshare it: https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/1fad7b3bc154402f9b210b26d7b7a542 
 🤙🏾…is the TestFlight Version being updated also or just AppStore ? 
 It would be great if I could use the App Store version and not require the built in wallet for zaps. 

This is only possible in the TestFlight version currently.

 So if a fan above your head appears to be rotating, is it the fan that is moving, or the ground beneath your feet?
