Can we get cowboy hat on Nostr?
Did a power cycle and got my node back. Just confirms the pi is screwing up. I need a NUC, Mac mini, or meekrat
Yeah, a budget laptop is just superior IMO. The inbuilt battery and screen make a big difference.
I went with a budget Lenovo Thinkpad which is about as expensive as the RPi 4. Umbrel on Ubuntu.
🤔
The Mac Mini(even the 2020 M1 one) is a surprisingly powerful machine. It can sync the whole Blockchain overnight.
1sat=1sat This is it...
the memes are on fire today 😂
Hey hey hey people!!

Dan and a week filled with success and joy, be well my friends and stay frosty!
Still thinking about how awesome a stacker sports fork would be.
i had the great idea to register snacker.news and do a parody of stacker.news there
but turns out it is already taken ... bummer
Too bad. That would be pretty funny.
I spent 2 hour building a PR and the maintainer closed the PR in 2 minutes 😂
Worse part? The "already fixed" justification was wrong.

lmao, i hope he will reopen if he was indeed wrong
Question In the future or currently is it possible to use a lightning address e.g Chungkingexpress@stacker.news or getalby.com for actual emails too? Seems like a great next step. What would the mechanism for this be? What happens if you try to send sats to an address that does not exist?
No, but I agree that this might be slightly confusing to non-tech people
No. Email will disappear slowly. We now have better alternatives.
Same with phone numbers. Only used as a carrier for identity these days.
Not if you use Sms4Sats ;)
so we had DID all along
Big fan of running bamboo. The way they take over an ecosystem is impressive. They send roots in all directions much further than you would expect to find all water possible. Then they shoot up 5-10-15 meters high within 60 days!! Then they create a blanket of leaves to soak all the sun. And to top it off they drop the leaves to cover the ground just to make sure nothing else gets a chance to grow. Many of the variants are edible and some produce sufficiently hard material for fences, huts, tools and furniture. That is all.
How do you contain it to an area?
It depends on what kind of containment you require. If you need to contain the roots you have to install a rhizome barrier of some kind. But the rhizomes cant extend further than about 20 feet (6 meters) from a mature culm/stalk and the new shoots can be kicked or mowed so you can also contain it that way. I mean that way it can never leave its original area until you stop mowing or kicking the new shoots which only tries to come up twice a year afaik.

Fasting is great for your body, it makes your body turn into repair mode.
Intermittent fasting is a proven way to stay healthier.
Privacy is great, you can use GrapheneOS if you want to use a modern phone without being a data point for big tech
This man sounds great, but I don't see that many people giving up living in their 30s and 40s. I like the idea of no phone number. Does he have internet? Also, he speaks fluent English. What country does he live in?
Give up living as I don't see sparkles in their eyes anymore.
He has a computer at home, and he's Turkish living in Türkiye.
Do you live in Turkiye? I have a friend there who is a Turkish citizen who lived in the US for 35 years.
Yes, I have been living here for two years.
Where are you from? You need to meet and talk to more older people. Most people surely do not give up living in their 30s or 40s. i regularly see 50 and 60 year olds climbing mountains and hiking alpine trails in the U. S.
That is really cool, and yes, I enjoy hanging out with old people now and learning how to do things naturally.
I am also almost 60, but I live like I am in my 30-35. How is that possible?
Now I am building my own citadel, with my own bare hands, deep into a mountain valley. To be almost self sufficient and live in peace. And will be a Bitcoin "retreat", a monument dedicated to Bitcoin and free world.
I don't know how much time will take, it doesn't matter. I still have at least 50 years more to live and enough to build it. So I decided to dedicate my time to Bitcoin and my citadel. Not doing anything else more.
And when will be ready, maybe I will put a 24/7 webcam and people see me and/ or ask me questions about Bitcoin, live, in real time.
Just remember that no one can survive alone.
Even Bitcoin needs a peer to work.
Also you need Internet, electricity, etc, all of those require civilization.
And your mental health would be horrible if you don't talk to other humans.
Watch me. I choose that place exactly because no one can come and break my silence. I prefer to be surounded by cows not by people.
You are saying that because the fear inside you is talking. I am fearless. I trained myself to not have any fear. Fear is what makes us weak and controlable.
You're probably still going to rely on mail delivery, electricity from the grid, Internet, etc.
Not seeing another person doesn't mean you're not relying on someone else to live your life.
LOL mail delivery? For what? To bring me what? I don't need it. Electricity? From the grid? Are you out of your mind? I have 2 small rivers just on the property, that I can make a small hydro. Internet? Maybe, to connect some BTC miners to that extra hydro power I would have. Satellite is very well positioned.
As humans, we need social interaction.
Here's an article about it
I have cows. I can talk with them if I want https://streamable.com/pjowpo
Or you want me to talk with these "humans"? https://postimg.cc/f3Jb5tnb

I am 57. I suspected you and I share a generational connection.
Marked down all your secrets 🤓️
And I am moving out of big city within next month. Living in big cities is like living in an illusion; one might think he can easily get the "best" of everything, yet missing out on the real taste in life.
Highly recommend moving out of the city. Especially if you have kids. Moved out of the city 15 months ago and now my kids get to play and walk in nature instead of a jungle of concrete and steel. We hear birds and trees rustling in the breeze instead of cars and construction site noise.
And the biggest plus, I don't spend 3 hours a day in horrible traffic trying to navigate the city and construction and accidents etc. I usually walk to local shops to pick up the small things we need and my wife drives to the grocery store (5 minutes drive) once a week to pick up food for the week. My son takes Taekwondo lessons (only 15 minutes drive) and my daughter takes gymnastics and dance lessons (only 10 minutes drive). Otherwise we only drive when we have to travel back to the city for something.
What could be more relaxed than walking through a bunch of cows taking a sun bath? https://postimg.cc/NLxk59dj 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
We are converting family property in NW Mississippi back into the nearly self-sustaining farm/ranch it was back in my grandparent's day up to the 1980s. I spent 20 years in San Fran shunning that life. Now I long for it and see how short-sighted I have been.
Living the life - when will we get to read articles about the darthcoin way of living 🤓️
