Friends, #nostriches , lend me your notes!

My wife and I own a #smallbusiness and are going to be in the first ever #WichitaDiecastShow

If you are in Midwest, USA and love diecast, come on out! https://image.nostr.build/bf77d03796e69d75ce2a2a72d689ac1c991f8729bf18a8ba5a3215eecb22acf9.jpg


Prototyping new products before sale!

My wife and I run a #smallbiz making #custom products. Not pictured is the final product thanks to my roomies input

This is the start of the Kitterman Speed Shop lineup for the Biz. I love cars, JDM, Initial D, etc. Hopefully this can bring us to life!

If you'd like to support a growing biz (and a biz that will have BTC support), or would like something similar, hit me up and we can talk Brass SATs! https://image.nostr.build/81cf9fedf3208affd0e23a1f9dc738e0918d571487e937e68592d3c6e05272c7.jpg


Happy 4th of July.

Always remember that Americans rebeled because of 2% tax.

We should kick those leeches into space the way they tax us now.

Our political system is in shambles. You've got a guy that can't even and you have a guy that points at everyone but himself. I'm opting out.

It appears to look to make a more autocratic government than we already have

In #TheBitcoinMag , I just read nostr:npub1kpc36kmttp0whcxcq05wmzqndsmprkrhcd8gxsp5ln9nkaxvr0nqdtytxp s article on "The Blue Check Manifesto"

My current questions are as such:

I have a small business that my wife and I own. She is frustratingly hard to move the needle on freedom tech. She is hooked on digital slavery tech. I'd love to get some traction in Freedom Tech for it, but, traction anywhere else has been rough. Any suggestions?

How would I accept both FreedomBux (BTC) AND FiatFun bux for this biz?


Haters in shambles. They stay pickin the corn outta my shit

Been in a funk the last couple weeks. End of next week I'll be in the seattle/bham area for the weekend attending LFNW Minifest.

Something needs to change in me but I'm unsure what.

Really loved how this turned out! Glowing eyes and everything. Bitcoins turned out better than expected. Wonder if I could get this with any other coin like monero.

Hmm, big weird


I think I started on the way down from the top and got serious a few months ago


I'm of the opinion that as long as you get in below the top


Oh, good. Another booster I'm skippin!


Well, what in the absolute FUCK. I haven't had this yet, however, I have had TX fail for timeouts and my sats came back after a few min


Well sumbitch. I forget how I subbed in the first place, but, I could have sworn it was from here


The best and truest eff you to the gubment


Have some sats cause I stole the hell out that meme

# The Golden Tech Stack

## Welcome
Time is lovely, isn't it? It just flows on like a river. Anyway, some stuff has changed and an update is due! I hope you are well and excited for another edition of my blog.

This edition of the blog, I asked a simple question to my bitcoiner pals over at the [Jupiter Broadcasting Matrix channel](https://www.jupiterbroadcasting.com/community/matrix):
"What would you like to see me write about or have my opinion on?" HAL9000 answered with: "I'd love to know your tech stack" (I am simplifying a bit, but, that is the jist), so, thank you for that!

Before I get to that, here are some

### Updates

Since we last chatted over the blog, I have been trying (and failing) to get comments on here. I will be trying to make a small python app for that as a learning tool for developing python.
Shouldn't be too hard, I hope. Do you think it will be?

I have also joined up with the Nostriches and have both a Nostr Blog on Habla.News and a regular twitter style nostr account (one in the same, really. Just different front ends and relays)
My npub for seeking me out is: npub1x4fue7jz3y4gjjce6le9qkawapnrjkq92za78wr8qp36m4czggtshxdfxs

**DISCLAIMER**
*We should all have hope and look toward the day where a man realizes the sounds*
-ahem-
sorry

Actual disclaimer: This blog will be mirrored over on Habla.News, so I may have to take some liberties for that ie photos will be linked for your viewing pleasure!

## The Stack

I am surrounded by technology. Probably some tech debt, if I am honest. Just at this desk alone, I sit amongst four computers of varying scopes.
"But, Dragon, why couldnt this be condensed down?"
I did. This desk was full of monitors and the like, and I may still condense down to just one and make the rest headless, minus the laptop.

Here is the top level overview of what I use on a regular basis and (if i can remember) some specs:

### It's GNOME, its XFCE, Its..!

[Just a Mac Mini](https://pxscdn.com/public/m/_v2/596519729843998294/c51ea9690-856390/kna2yH6EfPBf/pIHGCEdthDMrajAGlvZvOautrJgNjgDZaTN1zibP.jpg)

The last gen of Intel-based Mac Mini computers. This is my daily driver and will soon become my dev machine. What I am considering is this:

Linux
Hugo
NGINX or Caddy (havent decided on the web server yet)
MySQL
Python

As for specs, this thing is **Spec'ed OUT** my dudes. And was given to me as a gift. My donor can let me know if they would like credit for this. Its been alluded to for sure, though!
In it's current state, I am able to help my wife design stuff for our business, which won't change. I will just not be able to use her software (Cricut Design Space). If anybody out there has any luck running this in a VM, let me know.

### The Blog Writer
[This one is a little MicroMini Node, Lenovo style](https://pxscdn.com/public/m/_v2/596519729843998294/c51ea9690-856390/aLqrMnpyFNiH/zmtSIKOtXv9AIHYV3xkrHi8ojlRBjiim9TBz7iKF.jpg)
While not very powerful, like my Mac is, this tiny pc site behind my curved monitor and lets me write my blog with ease. Currently running Debian 12 Stable XFCE ([email me that hate](mailto:tgdhaku@proton.me)), it gets out of my way and just goes.
Initially intended as a Monero rig, I realized that I wouldnt really get much out of that except the memes and I am (mostly) serious about my work. My blog stack is pretty simple:

Markdown files parsed by > Hugo sent to > GitHub hosted by > Netlify > to your lovely face.

### The Server
Ahh, yes. [My good ol' Dell](https://pxscdn.com/public/m/_v2/596519729843998294/c51ea9690-856390/5gwwlAMjijTX/OxrszHmAUZf9swnvqUEBlJ8PGPfJAKEfxZq9g30w.jpg)
This server is mainly a Nextcloud rig. Did host Jellyfin and ripped Anime, but, need to set up the latter again. Big fan of Serial Experiments Lain.

### My Nodes
Did I mention I am a new Bitcoin Maxi? I have two nodes now.
I have an [Ancient eMachines with built-in Nvidia GPU and AMD Sempron CPU](https://pxscdn.com/public/m/_v2/596519729843998294/c51ea9690-856390/jBlux5yA5d1Z/WIxy2kjqnlpjijPiBDCRXh9RWUcE17YuyNGAsG0n.jpg) as well as a
[Kamrui Mini PC that I picked up second hand that somehow works](https://pxscdn.com/public/m/_v2/596519729843998294/c51ea9690-856390/OAlYgYACgFQh/3SPTtdOTqZa1xoypK3nenp45H8FAVu7X8KDORasj.jpg)

The top one is my Umbrel node and the Kamrui is my new Start9 Node. The Start9 node will be the one where my Blog sats will be (we will get to that in a moment!) As of now, Start9 cannot connect with Tailscale, but, I will see if I can change that. Probably not.

### Misc
In addition to that, the boost button is proxied on a Nanode over on Linode and the Python Comments app I hope to develop will be over there as well. Once I learn how boosts work and how to work with API's, this will all just be peachy keen.

## Future-sim aka Where this all goes
Eventually, I have a feeling I will be back to just a computer and a laptop, with headless nodes running in a 3d printed, fan cooled cabinet. What I would really enjoy would be my Mac being my base system, probably Arch or Debian.
I would like to figure out exit nodes as well so that I can cut back on 5g data perhaps and just use my home internet.

The stack is nothing really golden, I just have a lot of extra tech that I wanted to put to use.

## Support time!
This week, we (and by we I mean ThothLoki) blew my mind and sent over a whopping 5000 satoshis! I really appreciate it and that will be here on my Start9 node very soon with the other 300 satoshis from last blog post.

If you would like to support the blog, you too can send your value over by using the button below. If you are on Habla, you can Zap me and that will go directly to my node and I will send that over to the blog node as well.

Alternatively, you can send me directly via your wallet if it supports LNURL addresses! You can fund me directly with a send to TGDHaku@boost.goldenblogathon.com

It is night as I write this. When I wake, I hope the sun is warm. I hope that *you* are warm when the sun rises, too.

I was asked what tech I use on the daily and I gave up the sauce.


no one seems to be talking about the dip down to just above 25k.
any news why? #btc #bitcoin #smij
