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?

Just pilled one restaurant to accept BTC because I didn’t have enough cash with me, fun 😂

wait, could it be a new trick?! go out to eat or drink and pretend you don't have enough cash to pay, thus " forcing" the owners to accept BTC? 😂😂😂

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

31 sats \ 4 replies \ @bitcointerest 23 Oct 2023

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.

strangers typically love when you experiment on them lmao

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.!

21 sats \ 1 reply \ @bitcointerest 23 Oct 2023

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.

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

76 sats \ 6 replies \ @DarthCoin 23 Oct 2023

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

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 😆

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

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!

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

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.

5 sats \ 2 replies \ @Michelson_Morley 24 Oct 2023

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.

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.

Nomad hack of today:

Having one home base close to nature, far from civilizations and poisons, where you can enjoy and focus on learning and building. Ideally, a place where you can be self-sufficient or easily assess the things you need to maintain a healthy life, things directly from makers or farmers.
