As I’m sitting down at Bare Bottle brewery in Santa Clara, Pump it Up starts to play…..than I check the Bitcoin price …..
And then I wonder is there a bitcoiner running this Bare Bottle location? https://image.nostr.build/1e3831c0a848a91a3dfe393462eaa6248fb278988844876f846a57e609abee26.jpg

Yes. Showing meaningful “touch points” in public about the “Why of Bitcoin” is great.
Bitcoin is for ALL cultures and society because of it’s Why (and How). Some bitcoiners still don’t understand this point.

Yep. The rock singer’s voice often goes through painfully bad decline after many years.
Notable vocal declines that come to my mind and are unbearable:
James Hetfield - Metallica
Geddy Lee - Rush
David Lee Roth - VH
Axl Rose - GnR (yes, already stated)
Geoff Tate - Queensrÿche (but to a less cringey amount)

“…the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis lists these properties in the teachers’ resources section of their website and uses them to argue - correctly - that US dollars are better money than a cow. A cos seems like a low bar, but maybe they only want to make the arguments they can win.” A Progressive’s Case for Bitcoin, Chapter 1 “Why Bitcoin?” by #[0]
I plan on sharing passages from the Bitcoin books that I read more often.
This passage made me laugh, and thus, it is the first one I’m noting. So far, so good Jason. I like the inclusion of the trillion dollar coin.

This update summary from the apple App Store is confusing me.
I thought Damus was either removing zaps or getting kicked off the App Store.
Is the new wallet connection a way for apple to scrap their 30% from zaps? https://nostr.build/i/dec473be172492201f945fb8e626a96ed20b6ebb99640b592610618b2a88cd29.jpg

If it had to be bitcoin related, then probably front end.
However, my intent is to prepare myself for whatever may be needed to navigate apps/computers in the future. It seems like a good idea to know at least some basics of a code as opposed to relying on other people. I want to be at least a little more self-sufficient.

(2) chug it and ask for a Jäegermeister chaser.

For our future please understand bitcoin.

2023-03-06 00:01:59 UTC

#[0] best use after a quick run through is that it makes a nice client to transition from Twitter to nostr, and it is very obvious with tracking zapped sats.
Other than those two things, I would like to see its post and replies stream interface improve.
Finally, it automatically controls relays. This aspect seems problematic for people who want to micromanage their relays.
Thoughts?
