anyone want to make a small purple ostrich running gif I can use as a spinner for loading?


Please. I'm doing a bit of front end work to add the ability to import your notes from other relays. It works, but it needs improvement. I don't get a success result on large imports (it still imports them though) and my spinner works now, but doesn't go away when I get the result. I'm still kind of fresh with go and front end stuff. Other stuff to-do is in the issues on GitHub.

For me, after about 10 minutes a pouch starts hitting pretty hard, I enjoy the buzz for a few minutes but right now I can't even make it through a pouch without having to take it out a bit early. And 10 minutes or so.


Hell yea brother, I got work to do.


These are a brand called smarter vitamins, I get em on Amazon.
https://i.nostr.build/2FBGYup3kvm0Mkj0.jpg


The pouch is a Nicotine pouch. On! Brand 4mg. Nicotine is VERY addicting but the benefits are huge and the downsides are... Dependence. However, other than dependnce, there are almost no other negative health detriments with nicotine. So nicotine salts (just nicotine, no tobacco) are great. If you really want to try, you can get these pouches in smaller doses. Try one and see if it's for you.

The L-Theanine pairs with caffeine and completely eliminates jitters from the caffeine and adds more focus.

Nicotine only really "works" (gives you a boost) , when ingested in a bigger dose. The gum and pouches just satisfy the dependency but aren't really strong enough to feel imo.


WAIT WAIT IM DOING SOMETHING


Caffeine and L-Theanine


This combo is way better than meth. No zombification.


No jitters from me. I've always like 2-1 the other way. These also have a bit of MCT oil in them and the oil they're coated in has a strawberry like flavor. They're awesome. Nicotine was a recent addition. Just more focus.


I don't even really like caffeine without it now. So much focus when they're paired.


Sorry #coffeechain , I take my caffeine straight to the veins.


Recently I've been beginning the day with 200mg caffeine, 100mg L-Theanine, and 4mg nicotine...

Measure the world in sats not fiat. It makes a lot more sense when you don't have any fiat. Spending is spending. A drop in fiat price is temporarily unfortunate for your net wealth measured in fiat and you have to spend more corn nominall. But this is only temporary and if you're all in, it didn't matter. This is why your time preference decreases holding corn. You should always be considering spending in terms of time, labor, energy, 🌽. Not fiat.


:This:


NGMI. Doesn't matter what the fiat price is. Spending is spending. Doesn't matter what it's denominated in. The price is irrelevant to the spending of 🌽.

Looking for a new Lightning wallet and have questions about ZEUS?

Ask us anything!


🫂 Hello Friend


Two for one!


I dm you the full draft collection after running wheat for a week. My drafts are there and I never had wheat in my private relays.


No I mean the drafts. 31234 kinds.


They were definitely sent to my general or public because I didn't have wheat in my private relays list


There are dozens of us!


I just had wheat in my public relays and general relays and it got a TON of draft events and deletion events for those drafts. How would you even stop kind 5 from going to all the general relays.


I have my own thoughts about lightning as well.


That ain't gunna happen unless you want nodes to centralize


Nip71 is interesting. Anyone use that?


It's an event just like every other event so It checking the signature. I assume the deletions are from the drafts.


yea this was my thought. I guess most general relays should really be rejecting draft events.


Drafts and deletions took nearly 1/3 of the overall storage space for all of wheat for the time that I ran it. This will be a problem at scale I think nostr:nprofile1qqsyvrp9u6p0mfur9dfdru3d853tx9mdjuhkphxuxgfwmryja7zsvhqpzamhxue69uhhv6t5daezumn0wd68yvfwvdhk6tcpz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejj7qgwwaehxw309ahx7uewd3hkctcscpyug

Have you considered drafts being only on a local relay and should there be a kind 5 for draft delete? Then the kind 5 must persist everywhere forever?

Sorry I didn't tag you to bug you, I'm just rambling on my head while looking at how wheat did.

Wheat collected 3.25mb of notes and other stuff after running for a week. I'll try to get notes stored on wheat over the last week bundled up in a zip and make a wormhole link to send out to all those that stored events there. Thanks again for testing! I'm taking a bit of a break, but I want to make a badge for all those that tried it and assemble some more metrics and a postmortem.
23 collections, (unique event kinds)
679 Kind 1 notes
761 Kind 7 Reactions
1890 Kind 5 deletion events 👀 (why so many?!)
Kind 31234 is the largest single collection at 680Kb (WTH is a 31234?)

Again, I'll post a lot more stats as I have time to examine (GRAIN has extensive whitelist functionality now, fyi, wheat may come back with one)

Grain 🌾 configuration is now separated out into its own package. If configs don't exist when running it, it will make them for you. When I release this relay, I want users to be able to start the program and be done. Now I just need some sort of hot reloading when changing the config.


Which is the same as the first floor.

Let me ask you, when you walk in your house, are you on the ground, or are you on a floor?


0 is dirt. Your 1st floor is the first floor above dirt.


Yes. I'm looking at blossom repo and thinking about how to implement sats for note storage on a relay implementation I'm working on right now.


Nostr doesn't decentralize large media storage or stop link rot. I hope blossom can though....

I think the duplicate is meaning another relay already sent that note to your client and the rate limit may be for subscriptions (requests for notes of a certain kind)

Lincoln was one of the worst presidents in American history.

No, not because he "ended slavery"

Because he grew the federal government from 2% to over 20% of the nation's overall GDP. He expanded the money supply by over 60% (more inflation, read theft, than this nation's ever seen) and he suspended habeas corpus.

Tell me you don't know a Satoshi quote when you see one without telling me.

NGU means more hodlers... More hodlers means more people have skin in the game. More people with skin in the game means more nodes. More nodes means harder to censor. It's not hard to follow.

If you humble yourself just a bit, maybe you would consider you can learn something from someone else, instead of thinking you know it all.

Tell me why you think NGU means censorship resistance goes down.

Btw, it's going up forever, because fiat is going to zero and technology decreases marginal cost of production to zero.

I don't think so but you never know until you start building it. You definitely would have to have some sort of front end or client that could build this event.

wheat.happytavern.co is my implementation


This picture looks decent from very far away. Cursed upon examination.


You can query all your relays for kind 01 without n zaps and use that to construct a kind 5. You would just need to specify all the event ids in the kind5 note. then broadcast everywhere. Probably not a terribly hard tool to make.


Hmm... Perhaps. I can get to it over ssl but whether or not that's what it's serving I'll have to look at my handler.

I was just reading these today! I'll have to make sure I'm handling NIP01 fully correctly before I can begin adding advanced improvements like this! I've already handled database interactions because the only data it accepts right now is events and I'm successfully rate limiting that. I just want to add more rate limits for requests and all types of messages. But the rate limiting is more for the websocket messages now and not the database.


Imagine you run a relay that's not censoring speech a powerful government want to suppress. You're probably a small relay. It would be easy to shut you down with a DDOS, especially if you don't have proper rate limiting for every instance but even then, they can make it unusable with enough requests. Now imagine you just make every request cost 1 sat. For an attacker, they can pay the relay runner, or not attack. No other option. Legitimate requests won't mind paying a few sats and the info would be available everywhere and the attacker cannot afford to shut it down and if they do they make you rich so you can just spin up even more instances. Game theory.

I think you misunderstand... You can just run the S17 @ 15 watts... or 20w or whatever power you have to put to it. The BitAxe and the S17 are equally affordable to run as they have the same hashing efficiency... The Bitaxe is wildly more expensive for the hash ceiling it has.

Well rn top priority is probably rate limits 😅 It's still very early, but I want a highly configurable relay that the code base is easy to maintain. So configure rate limits by kind and highly configurable black/white lists for events are probably my next steps, among explicitly handling kind 3 and 5 are probably next on the to-do.

Store it, [OK], [NOTICE] - idk wtf that kind is but it's been added to the relay database anyways 😘


Store em, fuck it! 😂


But, how to handle all unknown kinds?


I've had a lot of fun tinkering around with making my own relay implementation lately. Just getting around to the nitty gritty right now. Making a database with mongo, implemented in go and NIP 1 almost fully implemented.

After nip1 is fully done and I'm happy with the code base (could be a while) I wanted to work on a customizable black/whitelist for everything you can think of. But now I might have to change gears and try to learn some basics of making something with my lightning node. It would be really cool to set a price per sat per kind in a config for a relay with a simple front end to load relay credits with an invoice request.


Would you use a private relay that cost one sat per note?


Just gives me a pretty good relay idea. One that only stores and filters based on a political whitelist of words that include both parties and is meant to be purely political with no censorship. So the relay would whitelist, Trump, Republican, Democrat, Biden, Harris, etc and the wordlist public and open source.


It'll be interesting to see relays start filtering certain notes.


Weight the interest rate against what you expect BTC to do over the course of a loan. Then calculate your opportunity loss by not being able to buy BTC instead during that time. See how much you're really losing. I hate buying expensive things but if it's for a bigger payoff, it can be worth it. Get the one that will last the longest vs. the opportunity cost of the car. Maintanance and parts availability are also factors. Should be pretty good for both I'd imagine. Ford is probably a little cheaper, but not by much.

4. Confiscation of the property of all emigrants and rebels.
5. Centralization of credit in the hands of the state, by means of a national bank with state capital and an exclusive monopoly.
6. Centralization of the means of communication and transport in the hands of the state.
7. Extension of factories and instruments of production owned by the state; the bringing into cultivation of waste-lands, and the improvement of the soil generally in accordance with a common plan.
8. Equal liability of all to labor. Establishment of industrial armies, especially for agriculture.
9. Combination of agriculture with manufacturing industries; gradual abolition of the distinction between town and country, by a more equable distribution of the populace over the country.
10. Free education for all children in public schools. Abolition of children’s factory labor in its present form. Combination of education with industrial production

You don't need the word "blockchain" or "crypto" to describe Bitcoin. These words are red flags for people that don't understand shit but use fancy words because they think it makes them look smart.


When the $BMN launched, it offered investors a bold new way to engage with Bitcoin mining. Three years later, it's proven its value, delivering a weighted average gross cash/cash return of ~61%.
This week, the BMN1 will begin paying out 1,220+ $BTC on  nostr:npub1nyyhnqahf3cgqzcc927x7eqyd2msgplfe27ddn6hpgu2m200wh2s0s7gan. More 🧵⬇

https://image.nostr.build/a97890878439cde220f727955fba6ec1bcaf95a8f5a93afe3222579e520617b4.png

Some background: Instead of traditional investing methods in physical mining infrastructure, the $BMN offered a more liquid, flexible approach through a hashrate-backed security token that provided investors with hashrate generated at Blockstream Mining facilities.

https://image.nostr.build/284c7e759e28f166566b9fc86315783f164debe758f43a525f63b03e9acd6946.jpg

By removing the barriers of entry to enterprise-grade mining with a security token, investors could participate more easily in Bitcoin's proof of work, contributing to its security and censorship resistance.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nJ56KqzbzQI

As a security token, the $BMN comes with investor protections and allows flexible adjustment of exposure with P2P trading and secondary markets like Side Swap, Merj Exchange, and Bitfinex Securities, among qualified BMN holders.

https://image.nostr.build/8c30b56962b5371d5b92fbd15b3a5cca8a20d227274bf73da20decc1e2c3ab7e.jpg

The bitcoin mined by the $BMN has been held in cold storage and will be delivered to the final token holders beginning later this week. This provides returns without needing to manage hardware or deal with the intricacies of mining operations.

The payout from BMN1 will also have a broader impact on the Bitcoin L2 ecosystem. It will push the Liquid Bitcoin $LBTC in circulation (~5108) on par with the total BTC in Lightning, highlighting its growing significance and utility.

https://liquid.network/

BMN1's success has also paved the way for other tokenized Bitcoin mining investments, such as the Blockstream BASIC Note $BSIC, which allows investors to capitalize on undervalued mining assets.

https://blockstream.com/finance/basic/

You can read further updates on the upcoming BMN1 payout via the official Stokr site, and be sure to set a reminder to join us and members of the Liquid Federation for an ecosystem-wide discussion on $BMN and its impact later this week. ⛏ 🌊

No... Humanity survives in temporary chaos. It's just not pleasent or a world that anyone desires. There will be order, just a matter of who establishes it. Then you get "democracies" like China and Russia.


You could call that democratic, but the people have much less of a real choice. So it's useless democracy. Really there is no liberty without order.


There is no democracy without order, there is no order in revolution.

I carry a gun every specifically because I'm thinking about people around me and how I can protect my family. Pushing for more regulation you can't even specify to make yourself feel safer, even when it negatively affects law abiding citizens in practice, is actually the selfish liberal take.


You just called me a liberal? I'm confused.

And who will be the arbiter of requirements for these "safety classes" ?

How does this requirement stop criminals from misusing firearms?

It seems more to me that this regulation only makes it harder for law abiding citizens to protect themselves. It also puts potential unelected bureaucrats in charge of determining the extent of safety requirements. This does nothing to stop criminals from using guns.


How do regulations need to be "stronger". Please be precise.


Something I’m rather firm on is that if you have the ability to make children and you do not. You are in 99.99% if circumstances making a gigantic mistake.

Children make life worth living.

Children provide instant meaning to life.

They inspire planning and care about the future.

They increase joy.

They make life novel and exciting again.

They’re innovative, surprising and imaginative.

They reflexively shape us as we attempt to shape them into better versions of themselves/ourselves.

If you have children and they have children you will be increasingly surrounded by life as you grow old.

If you do not, you will be surrounded by death as everyone you know slowly dies.

You will never regret having kids.

You will certainly regret not having them.

If you have kids you are honoring the sacrifice and suffering your ancestors had to endure by passing the torch forward.

If you do not you are dishonoring them by wasting your life on the meaningless pursuit of your own pleasure.

These are very strongly held immutable beliefs for me.

I like it when you react to my posts.


Then you will acrue interest and lose credit.


If you can pay it off, then no worries mate.


Amethyst will start automatically updating relays that are sending old versions of replaceables or events that have been deleted.

This will help fix many race conditions and simply get rid of old information out there. Some pubkeys have 40 different metadata versions in separate relays.

If your relays start to receive many insertions with dates in the past related to a batch of events the relay just sent out, that's why.

Consider removing rate limits for deletions and updates of older replaceables the relay already has. You can put those in a slower processing queue, but they should be processed and not just discarded.


If leveraged properly... This looks like a big credit card debt... Bad debt.


Because you made an agreement to pay someone back for the money you spent. You have a moral obligation to do so. If I give you money, and you don't pay me back, you've not only taken advantage of me, you've stolen from me.

It's not different just because it's a large institution. You agreed to the contract. You should uphold the contracts you sign.


Being in debt is not good...

When you give someone Bitcoin and they sell some of it to stake Eth.... I know the feeling.

You don't have to go to El Salvador to do that. You can stay here and do that. Just a state of mind. Nothing geographic about it.


I think that's what it is at mine as well. I just meant I use a Credit union because it's more local than a big bank and the ledger updates immediately


Hm, not sure. I was unaware of this since I've had an account so long! Perhaps I need to check it out from a new user perspective and give some good feedback.


tailscale, openvpn, etc. There are many ways...


That's can't really ever happen. At least in my life since I'll be buying all the way down. But yes, of course I'll keep my faith. Again, it's the lesson imparted by Bitcoin as an idea. Not the "hype" of NGU. I'm not in Bitcoin for NGU. I'm in Bitcoin for PGD. Prices go down. Fiat is a disease and a tool of Satan. It's made the Government "god"


yea $35 is high no doubt. But again, they probably didn't come to that number on a whim. The legacy system is just wholly inefficient and thus inflated. That's why I use a credit union. They update their ledger like immediately. Low overhead. I used to have a bank like yours. I feel your pain.

Is  this real?!


This was like the day of next day after the bank failures. Who knows man. Wild for sure. I stopped trying to appeal after trying for a month. At one point I think I asked if they could show me the words I said to get banned and was met with something like, "we're not going to repeat it, you know what you did" kind of response. I wish the comment wasn't removed so I could prove it , but you can follow the thread, why would I say something wild and off topic? He made a comment about those banks being small regional ones and I swear my response was just something about them not being small and that they were actually the biggest failures since 2008. Boom. Perms banned from all of reddit.


https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/11r5lmo/comment/jc7n77e/

Here is the thread. What I can only assume is the now deleted account reported me for harassment. The actual comment I made is now removed but I said something along the lines of "SVB and Silvergate are the biggest banks to fail since 2008. " in response to his "So what about some small regional banks"

I've asked for clarification on why I was banned several times and just been completely stonewalled by Reddit. No appeal accepted.

Permanently banned from ALL of Reddit. Not a particular sub, no time frame. Perma banned for life. I think it s a conspiracy to get people to stop talking about it to prevent contagion at the time the discussion was taking place. It's the only reasonable explanation.

I've seen you promote other "cryptos" before. Am I mistaken?


As is yours.


Bitcoin is more than just money. But I wouldn't expect a shitcoiner to understand that.


I don't think I'll take anything you say seriously. You promote shitcoins and endorse the words of Adolph Hitler while professing Christianity. Miss me with that.


Did it occur to you that God works through Bitcoin as he works through many other mediums? I never idolized Bitcoin. It is a teacher. I feel like you're not reading or comprehending my responses...


You are focused on the possession of keys and not the lessons it provides. I don't love Bitcoin. If the Bible is responsible for bringing someone closer to God, are they actually closer to Satan because the Bible is a physical possession? No. It's about the teachings of the Bible.


Because it sheds light on the evil of fiat... It shows truth.


Wth are you talking about? I'm not worshipping money/Bitcoin...

Why Christians should stay humble and stack sats.

This is a long form article, you can read it in https://habla.news/a/naddr1qvzqqqr4gupzphtxf40yq9jr82xdd8cqtts5szqyx5tcndvaukhsvfmduetr85ceqqxnzdejxqmryvfcxser2vf3tnmpt2

## The Law Giver

In my [previous article](https://habla.news/u/laeserin@getalby.com/1720611419942), I briefly went into the topic of how contract law is holy law.

The Father of the Christians, you see, is a God of Covenants, and He sent His Son to Earth to fulfill the Law and pay a Price for our salvation. The Father also created the Natural Order to confirm His Laws through our observation of that Law in action.

That is why Christians have a deep respect for honest contracts, true prices, fair measures, natural systems, and good laws. Not merely for their own sake, but also because understanding them helps us to understand and emulate the Law Giver.

The tired *What would Jesus do?* meme is actually an attempt to capture this emulation of the Highest Judge. Jesus knows the Law, since His Father defined it and He is One with the Father, so how would He apply the Law best, in this situation?

## The Last Things

>	Working together with him, then, we entreat you not to accept the grace of God in vain. For he says,
>	“At the acceptable time I have listened to you, and helped you on the day of salvation.”
>
>	**Behold, now is the acceptable time; behold, now is the day of salvation.**

-- [2 Corinthians 6:1-2](https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=2+Corinthians+6%3A1-2&version=RSVCE) New Testament, RSV Bible

One of the things most devout Christians frequently ruminate over, is when Christ will return.

Every day, we ponder. We go for a walk, and ponder. We cook dinner, and ponder.

At the same time, we are called upon to live each day in a productive manner, and to not simply lie around, vegetating, and staring at the heavens. Not only for our own sake, but also because to do so would be to limit our ability to inform others about the Good News, so that they can take to pondering with us. We are called to ponder with as many people as we can produce, adopt, convert, or simply collect through our daily interactions.

This means that we are not *of* the world (as our eyes are watching God and baptism has made us Immortals), but we are definitely *in* the world (involved in, and effected by, the everyday dealings around us.) It is a very difficult balancing act to know when we are paying too much attention to the one or the other, or to know where to store up our treasures, if we can't put them all immediately into the Final Treasury.

So, we worked today and earned a bit of fiat cash and we have no immediate usage for it. What to do with it?

Well, some of it should go to charity or be invested in a business that provides important goods, services, and employment. Some of it will be needed to simply cover the day-to-day costs of our own life, or that of those dependent upon us. But it might be prudent to store up some of it, for the mysterious length of time between receipt of the monies and our own ascent into Heaven.

Typically, that store was the local currency, but that's being inflated away at an alarming rate. Then we all began to move to precious metals, and many of us still do, but they are so difficult to spend and can't be broken into small bits or transported over wide distances at low cost.

Enter Bitcoin.

## The Great Ledger

In our frustration, more and more Christians are turning to a new technology, to save up some treasure in a liquid asset, for the mid-term. And, once we begin using it, and begin to understand how it works, we quickly grow fond of it.

Bitcoin is a beautiful money because it is a money based upon keeping precise accounts, using a fair measure, and obeying the Laws of Nature.

In essence, Bitcoin is a debt note emitted by a universal debtor (the network) in exchange for some good or service. This frees the individual people using it from ever needing to carry debt, as the debt stays in the network, the value and enforceability of that debt note is protected by the effort used to create and maintain the network, and the eagerness with which other people wish to store their efforts up in that same network. The debt still exists, but it can be so thinly and widely spread that it no longer rests as a burden upon one particular person.

The debt, in other words, has been *disassociated* from humans and the management has been  *distributed* to machines.
This is the precise opposite process of a "fiat" (by decree) currency, which only has value so long as it is *associated* with some particularly solvent group of humans (who personally vouch for repayment of any debts denominated in the currency), and where management is *centralized* to some other group of humans.

## Have you accepted Bitcoin as your personal money and store of value?

You have invested $10 to buy the electricity to mine Bitcoin? Then you receive $10 of Bitcoin in return. The Bitcoin network now owes you the $10 purchasing power equivalent of that electricity.

If someone then gives you $5 worth of pizza, then you can then give them a $5 portion of your $10 worth of Bitcoin. You have taken a part of your Bitcoin debt note and shared it with them.

They now hold $5 worth of Bitcoin invested in the network and can spend it on some other good or service. Or they can simply hold it and wait for it to rise in value, as more people "mine" more of it (and produce more notes, paradoxically making the existing notes more useful and therefore valuable) and more people try to gain the notes in order to manage their own finances by storing their energy in the network or transporting their energy using the network.

Bitcoin, in other words, is an accounting book that needs no accountant because it stores, tracks, and controls the ledger on its own. It is a Natural Ledger that runs according to the the Laws.

It is the only human-made ledger that allows for true and immediate Final Settlement. This Final Settlement is what allows people to trade using the convenience of digital debt notes, with neither person occurring or even risking any personal debt. We Christians know that all debt is a burden, including monetary debts, which is why we are called to forgive each other's debt and to hope that our own debts are forgiven. Better still, is to avoid the accumulation of debts, altogether.

So, Final Settlement?
Final Settlement is what Jesus would do.

Not a fan of property destruction and vandalism... Also, you just like property rights when it pertains to you but not other people when it doesn't benefit you?


There's nothing complex about a VPN. Pear seems to complicate it more imo.


I understand pear is a runtime now. I'm still kind of confused how this runtime enabled a moe p2p network. Like does it run applications on a client from a server p2p? Where the server client are the same network across space? I'm trying to wrap my head around this. I'm at work and don't have time to play with it right now.


US has some of the best property rights in the world. The reason we have a population of dumb retards is because daddy government is using the hard workers tax dollars to take care of everyone else. We are devoid of responsibility and a population with no personal responsibility lacks any incentive to better themselves and lacks any sense of meaning in their lives. It's why developed nations are far unhappier than developing ones. Property rights has nothing to do with it and diet has little to do with it. Although the fact that most people are not able to afford property of their own is a large contributing factor. Which of course means they don't have any responsibility for their own dwelling.

No I know how shitty human existence was, and not that long ago. But they had a reason to keep going. People forget, the wild West was only a couple hundred years ago. We were savages. Life expectancy and suffering don't equate to happiness. I suppose when I say happiness, I really mean "meaning"

People would be a lot happier today if they had more kids. Again, people in undeveloped nations, with low life expectancy, very very hard existences, are happier than a lot of westerners that have nice cushy lives.


Nah, western developed nations certainly have a disproportionate amount of unhappy people. It's because we lack responsibility and thus, meaning in our lives.

That moment when your husband downloads scify/dystopian movies and you recognize one and grab the novel off the bookshelf. Birds of a feather...

Marriage has been a wild ride over the past 7 years (10 years together). My husband is opposite from me in so many ways. However, these differences bring us together. We fulfill something in each other that we ourselves cannot.

There's something beautiful about marriage in which you grow together, cry together, and just simply live together, as one. Nothing can replace this bond or replicate it.

This man supported me through college and watched me obtain my dream  career. This man is encouraging me to follow our new dreams (after growing our family) of wanting to homeschool. I cannot state enough how blessed I am.

I'm writing in this in hopes I can encourage a young woman (or man) to be someone's other half.  Just know that it's much easier facing the rollercoaster of life with someone by your side. ❤

I told her to get primal on my way out the door to head back to work. Naturally she downloaded and made a new account on primal because she was unaware it was even a nostr client and thought it was just a wallet. Then she transferred her sats there. Although she had to leave around 500 sats behind in ln.tips because... Lightning architecture. Then texting back and forth I explained she should have used her existing key to sign into primal. So I said just send me your sats and sign it and you can sign in with your existing nsec. She did, but again had to leave 100 sats behind.... Except now, her email is associated with a primal wallet that's not her actual account. This whole experience involves several apps, friction, pain points, terrible UI/UX , lost time, lost sats. This shit has GOT to improve. Adoption is going nowhere until it does. Can someone help associate her current email with her actual nostr account?

Water spots on your plant leaves?  Clogged mist heads?  Fertilizers don't seem to go far as you think they should?  Let's talk calcium carbonate!

I spent some time today cleaning out my Fre-Flo water conditioner and I wanted to share a bit about irrigation water and fertilizer utilization in #garden and #nursery situations.

https://m.primal.net/JHAY.jpg

This device here takes the calcium ions in our water and carbonate ions in the water and combines them back together into a form of calcium carbonate crystals called vaterite, which is like talc powder when dried.

Since the ions are combined into the crystal and remain crystalized in the water, they won't bond with other ions in the water or soil.

This helps prevent a few things for us in the garden:
- the calcium and carbonate ions from bonding with other fertilizers, helping to lessen the amount of fertilizers needed and improving the efficiency of microbes in the soil getting needed nutrients to plants
- helps us from getting water spots on our plant leaves in the nursery and clogging irrigation parts with minerals.  The vaterite will wash off in the rain rather than form crystals on the plant surfaces.

Incidentally we're using this to treat all the water in our house/farm since it's in-line with the line from the well.  So this helps with clogged shower heads and sinks and water spots as well as making soap go farther.

Inside this device is a core which is coated with a catalyst to combine the calcium and carbonate ions into crystals.  The rough surface helps add turbidity to the water to ensure the ions come in contact with the catalyst:

https://m.primal.net/JHAo.jpg

The core fits into a pipe which goes in-line with your water line, so it doesn't impeded the flow of water:

https://m.primal.net/JHAs.jpg

This gets cleaned out 2-3x per year with some CLR (Calcium-Lime-Rust) solvent just to clean up the catalyst.  There are no filters or consumables other than the CLR cleaner.

Here is the website for the company describing the science behind it:

https://freflowater.com/the-science-of-fre-flo

I learned about the effects of calcium carbonate salts especially with respect to soil science (fertilizers) from John Kempf via Matt Powers Regenerative Soil Science course.  Here's an article on the interaction of hard water specifically calcium carbonate in agriculture:
