Anyone have a cool workshop setup they want to share? Converting my barn into a wood shop, had to take down the existing walls covered in horse poop. Starting with insulation and OSB. Maybe we need a #woodstr

I run an umbrel node on Rasberry Pi, but was considering buying their hardware. Anyone use it and have thoughts? Worth saving money and just building one for cheaper and installing umbrel? Seems to be what Reddit suggests.

2024-08-17 05:35:56 UTC

Who here has connected their lightning wallet to a custom domain. What was your experience? Pros, cons? It seems like it’s pretty limited to people running their own node, so that alone creates a pretty big hurdle. Alby hub seems to offer it as a feature, but only read about it.

Love the exposure, but like always a party is taking the great technology and making it political. I think it’s a huge mistake for the adoption of Bitcoin in USA. It shouldn’t be a red vs blue thing, like all the other bullshit out there.

Any help on successfully composting in a chicken run would be awesome.

2024-06-14 00:08:52 UTC

I’ve begun my chicken and compost journey at the same time. Eggs and then being able to return that back with other food/yard waste to then get more eggs. Gotta love a mostly closed system that generates real food and soil. Listened to @npub1s5y…6q7z talk to writer of Fiat Food today, and couldn’t help think about how excited I am to eat even more eggs. Oh also next winter their heating solution will be mining me some bitcoin at the same time. Anyone who is way ahead of me here would love any and all suggestions! https://image.nostr.build/cf86ffda9714bb22f07a21857a0c3e51ba3d1a97092ec84ff4d53a8db22068e5.jpg https://image.nostr.build/f2e60464ba2897278a04eb8959f7078a500809461ed9d4ad9154702b2152b085.jpg

It’s nice to refresh and read a bit about MLK today. One thing that they really don’t teach in school is his focus economic equality regardless of race. Bitcoin has the potential to bring more balance and equality to our broken financial system. I really don’t think it’s a stretch to think that he would have been a #bitcoiner in today’s world.

Charlie Munger continues to detach further and further from reality. Downplaying the importance of AI is the next thing on his list of things that makes it clear to me that he has lost “it”. Warren and Charlie were pioneers in value investing, and I have learned a lot from them, but it’s clear to me that they are very wrong about where we are heading. Fortunately for them, they don’t have to be right at 90+ years old.
Can’t wait to hear #[0] take on what comes out of that world. Having lived so deeply in both worlds of traditional value investing and now Bitcoin, his insights are usually spot on.

#[0] is fighting the good fight over on BS today. Not going to lie it is hard to watch, the amount of ignorance and hate really about nothing that should be controversial. It’s funny the difference between nostr and BS. He is getting attacked for spreading hate on an “app” he owns 🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️ Clearly most people over there don’t understand what a protocol is. Also the ignorance around Bitcoin reminds me where most of the world still stands on the subject: misinformed and lied to.
But through all that, it almost makes me think there is an opportunity on BS that nostr doesn’t have. The AT protocol can be a Trojan horse for decentralization, and expose people to the value of an open protocol and hopefully Bitcoin (pray for zaps). I think nostr is about a year ahead, if not more, but at least it’s something to get more people out of the walled gardens that are Twitter and instagram. Nostr is relaxing, BS is not, but I feel a responsibility to try to be on both. And it seems like #[1] might be doing the same…at least today he is haha

Technology makes it really hard for dictators to lie about their economic growth and production. Using satellites that measure pollution shows that Russia’s economy has been struggling contrary to the propaganda the Russian state continues to put out.
My take: Open source tech like Bitcoin and nostr will accomplish the same against banks and walled off/censored communication

I asked ChatGPT why domains are good for verification:
Using domains for verification services can provide a number of benefits, including increased security, authenticity, and reliability. Here are a few reasons why:
1. Ownership verification: By verifying your social media handle with a domain, you can prove that you are the legitimate owner of that handle and that you have control over the associated website. This can help prevent fraud, impersonation, and other malicious activities.
2. Improved branding: By linking your social media handle to a domain that is related to your brand or personal identity, you can create a more consistent and recognizable online presence. This can also make it easier for others to find and connect with you online.
3. Increased trust: Using a verified domain can help establish trust with your audience and followers, as it signals that you have taken steps to verify your identity and protect your online presence.
I then asked it why it is better than a blue checkmark:
A verified blue checkmark on Twitter is a useful way to verify the authenticity of a Twitter account, but it has some limitations. Here are a few reasons why using a domain for verification services may be a better option:
Ownership verification: While a blue checkmark can confirm that an account is authentic, it doesn't necessarily confirm ownership. By verifying your social media handle with a domain, you can provide additional proof that you are the legitimate owner of that handle.
Branding: A blue checkmark does not provide any branding benefits, whereas using a verified domain can help establish your brand identity and create a more consistent online presence.
Cross-platform verification: A verified domain can be used across multiple social media platforms and websites, whereas a blue checkmark is specific to Twitter.
Increased security: Verifying your social media handle with a domain can help prevent fraud and impersonation, as it provides an additional layer of verification and security.
Overall, both a verified blue checkmark and a verified domain can be useful tools for establishing authenticity and trust online, but a verified domain provides additional benefits such as ownership verification and branding.

So what are people’s thoughts on NIP5 vs. bluesky verification? I don’t have an invite yet to bluesky but from what I’ve seen they have made it pretty easy by just applying a TXT record to your domain that they supply inside the app UI. I don’t have a super informed opinion here, so asking the room.

#[0] started one of his talks at #nostrica with a joke about a cow's tongue represents what we have uncovered with the NOSTR protocol. We still have the whole cow left to discover.

This feels a bit like gmail undo, and I never have used it. I could see it being useful for some, but like some said at #nostrica, there is beauty in the mistakes.
I do think there is some value in ephemeral notes. Unlike conversation, notes can live forever. Even today we see that be used against people who may learn, change opinion, and grow as people. I would love to find a way to promote that type of growth on nostr instead of continue the trend of canceling people for what they may have posted about a decade ago. Maybe they needed to learn, grow, or found themselves in a bad place at the time. Social media today promotes judgement, would love to see nostr promote understanding.

Don’t you think DNS is fairly decentralized already? I don’t really get the concern to be honest. The internet is decentralized. Root servers around the world, not centrally managed.
https://bitcoinmagazine.com/technical/simplifying-bitcoin-addresses-dns
“It’s true that DNS has an inverted tree structure that terminates at the root “.”. But even that root is fairly decentralized, comprising thousands of servers operated by at least 13 disparate operators. The legacy DNS may be logically centralized but in reality functions more like a decentralized federation of sorts.”

Even saying it is “low confidence” is a political move. Sam Harris had Matt Ridley and Alina Chan on his podcast this past week and it is pretty clear that this occurred because of poor safety practices and in general sketchy gain of functional SARS virus research in Wuhan. Apparently they outline it in their book “Viral”. News sources continue to be scared to give them/this book any media attention. Not surprising that the media/government is scared to speak the truth which we all deserve.

So let’s try to do what Munger so blatantly couldn’t do at looking at both sides of the Bitcoin argument. I think 99% of the people on this platform are pro-Bitcoin and believe in the long term vision, but what are the best arguments against it you have seen? And resources would be great.

I grew up playing the sax but just got a piano in the house. Thinking about trying to learn a new musical skill. Any recs/tips on learning the piano as an adult?
