Bitcoin is dancing and now so am I!

been a while since we had a god candle.

Have you noticed that every time that someone writes something like "love it or hate it" it's always mostly referring to the hate part?

reply

I think they're trying to say they hate it in a nice way

Backlog grooming, I like it

I’ve had to much fun on Stacker News this week. Is that possible?

This is the way.

Living in Bitcoin standard teaches you many things:

  • never do things at the last minute, because most likely you will end up paying more fees when you're in a rush
  • only being able to spend what you have, you would be more mindful about spending; not like using credit cards - you can even spend what you don't have or pay little attention to the price
  • always prepare, think one step extra - you're the captain of your ship!
  • build long-term relationships, especially with people whom you trade things with

What else did you learn?

reply
  • patience
  • test before run / use
  • simplify

Hey Stackers,

Today the 3d printer is up and running, I'm printing upgrades for the ender 3: Cable chains and Fan shrouds, I'll print an attachable basket for tools and an enclosure for the screen section next.

I'm working on a bitcoin app with the help of the plebdev course called Hustle5 (my fifth attempt...) So far I've got a screen on local:3000 which displays "Welcome to TheWildHustle's fifth attempt anon! Proceed at your own risk!" The screen also has a login and logout button (Login with Github). I'm using a serverless mongo db setup and it works just fine......but I'm attempting to use the lnbits API to create user wallets and LNbits refuses to do so.......

I'm buying the cryptocloaks recommended main fan for one of my s9 heaters, for the other heater I'm buying https://image.nostr.build/0d8e3bc5107983d666a9b08fbbe0f55662c56c825ac0249c2988fefa442c5a78.png I've already printed the adapter I'm attaching to the front for the connection. I'll test to see which is quieter and cooler. I'm running the S9's at 900 watts each, it would be cool to run them a little hotter while reducing the noise.

I need to watch tutorials on BTC pay server/Github. I need to continue the Replit 100 days of python and the Nostr Dev course (got distracted with the Pleb Dev course......was worth it though). I really need to finish Praxeology -Knut Svansholm (40 pages left) so that I can move on to cryptosovereignty, broken money, and bitcoin is venice. I need to organize my files between nextcloud/a 1 TB external hard drive and my comp. I still want to give writing content a shot, and I'd like to learn korean as well (duolingo is pretty cool).

My main job is steady but the side job search is still ongoing, I have 2 side job and 1 full time job application pending. 2 of those are bitcoin companies, one of them is stupid fiat stuff that im probably more qualified for....I haven't heard back from them in a while so I'm thinking that the search will need to intensify. I'll probably need to apply to more fiat nonsense. Whatever the case, I really need to increase my productivity.

With all that said,

I'm looking forward to Nostrville and hope to see some of you guys down there. Seems like the bull run approaches, winter is coming freaks!

What's up! Oh Bitcoin is up! 😍Happy Monday Everyone! I wanna make a cowboy hat, metal cowboy hat, Bitcoin metal cowboy hat/ Sculpture 🙌

I made this short concept/trailer/film of what Satoshi moved onto https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9bkz0xzFzAk

reply
I made this short

no you don't... some AI shit did it.

reply

The AI didn't edit it together, clean up the music, add sounds effects, add video effects, add video timing elements, or come up with the prompts to get the visuals.

reply

Good morning gang!!! Monday is here and the beginning of the week has begun, time to give it our best and show this week who's boss, hope you recharged your energy this last weekend so we can get this done on this one, I wish you lots of success on your endeavors my friend, you've got this!!

Howdy partners! Back to me Fiat job, but excited for a big Bitcoin week!

Last night I watched this G. Edward Griffin talk about the Federal Reserve System Private Fiat Cartel

Stablecoins, aka shicoins, have never made sense to me. Why would you trust shitty shit minted on shit networks that are not supply-capped or decentralized?

reply

the only positive I can say about stablecoins is that the sooner people onboard them, the sooner we get over the "wait this is idiotic" stage and dive into hyperbitcoinization

reply

nope. Who is using today stablecoins doesn't have enough brains for tomorrow... those people will always be retarded.

reply

exactly why stablecoins are *likely an inevitable part of the hyperbitcoinization process

the people are idiots

Winter is coming... and I don't like it lol

I'm swedish though and love winter. Darkness, silence. Muffled world. A cold pain all strangers around you share, giving you all a shared sympathy of being in it together.

This has to be one of my all-time favorite compositions: Erik Satie - Gymnopédie No.1

I can't describe how this sound makes me feel. All I know is it evokes a sense of peace and calm. It's almost like everything will be alright.

view on www.youtube.com
reply

I'm sad because when I was young, I used to take MDMA and had a tradition of listening to this for a mood setting.

Now I can't listen to it without feeling anxious. It's like my brain associates Satie with intense harmony and love, so when I hear it without that chemically induced feeling, my brain feels like I'm out of balance.

reply

That's really sad my friend. I'm really at a loss for words. I hope you're doing better now, compared to when you were younger.

reply

Oh for sure! Doing very well :)

reply

I've been listening to that and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=po_a1SmZKLs for the last couple of weeks, pretty wild.

reply

Listening with my wife while waiting for a Dr. appointment. Perfect.

reply

I've had a listen. I like it! It evokes a sense of excitement and wonder.

reply

Thanks for sharing. I will have a listen.

One of the greatest contributions of muslim society, the art and mathematics of Girih, and their description in the Topkapı Scroll.

reply

Imagine how much it would cost to build one of these nowadays!

reply

But aren't they printing money out of thin air? 😆

I think what makes it really hard to build more nowsdays is 1. having masters who still have the skills, patience and taste to build, and 2. people appreciate the aesthetic and beauty instead of how much profit the building can generate.

Time to go increase the network hashrate! Just doing the lord's work...

Would Bitcoin world of the future help? (Serious question)

reply

It's a good far north to see, but I need to solve some urgent and not important issues before focus on that. Maybe a week of help, loose the hat but gain more focus, Thanks!

reply

No shortage of hats here for the right type of cowboy… work towards that brighter future and get it back when you can.

reply

Windy as hell but no rain. Got a long morning drive ahead.

reply

Enjoy the drive.

Probably the spicy food last night…. How’s the weather? lol

We don't use that euphemism as much in these parts any more. The U.S. isn't big on subtlety.

Makes me think of Sam Elliott

reply

When I think of Sam Elliott, I think of Ghost Rider.

reply

He was good in a pretty mediocre film. Have you seen Roadhouse?

reply

I haven't seen that one before.

reply

He is awesome on that - not the lead but steals the show

A fine actor who is still doing some great work.. SgtMaj Plumley from ‘Once were soldiers’ being a particular favourite.

reply

AND... He's been married to Katherine Ross since the early 80s.

reply

What!?! I didn't know that. Going to have to rewatch Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid now!

reply

Now that’s an SN snail!

You know it ;)

Nice I convinced my friend to download blue wallet and accept BTC for his birthday gift today!! One person at a time!

reply

I like that idea. If he doesn't accept, then you can always explain that you had the fiat. You just wanted to conduct an experiment to see if its possible to pay with BTC.

reply

strangers typically love when you experiment on them lmao

reply

hahha! yeah, all win in the end.

Imagine more people started asking if could pay in Bitcoin, business owners would eventually be smart enough to add it as a payment method.!

reply

Win win, indeed!

I think from now on, before I pay for something I will ask if I can pay with BTC. I might be able to orange pill a few businesses this way.

reply

Maybe sometimes all it takes is to ask - do you accept Bitcoin? 🤓

reply

could be a good strategy too, but depends of the level of intelligence of the owners. Well done! One at the time...

reply
but depends of the level of intelligence of the owners.

and openness to try new things!

he was quite uninterested at first, but then I said it takes less than 1 minute to create a BTC address, and with all the inflation now, accepting Bitcoin is way better; he then started to be curious 😆

reply

don't forget to send them the link to my guides....

reply

you might need to translate them into Turkish 🤓 I would see what I can do more too.

reply

I can make you contributor to my substack and you can start translating them. But I am sure many merchants in Turkey can speak /read English.

reply
But I am sure many merchants in Turkey can speak /read English.

maybe a few merchants in istanbul can speak English, outside of istanbul, not much 😂

calling @oraltosun how's adoption in izmir?

reply

I see a lot of people aware of crypto money. But they've no sense and knowledge about Bitcoin. Unfortunately, Bitcoin ownership is behind the altcoin ownership. @Natalia
