Say what you will about algorithms Sometimes that shit just straight up delivers Since the embed is blocked, short overview: "Kant You Handle the Truth?

I dare you to tell your wife that she "gets to do this".
reply
My wife is not to pleased right now. She just cleaned all the bedding a couple days ago and my daughter didn't want to lay in her own bed so she was watching a movie in our bed and threw up all over it.
I was actually out walking the dog when it happened and I came back and my wife is scrambling to get the kid in the bath and rip the sheets off the bed. She just looks at me "you need to clean the bathroom floor".
I figured it wasn't a good time for questions. "Ok honey".

Hey @k00b why can't you edit the options on a poll after you post the way you can a regular post or comment. Not a big deal but realized I had a typo after I posted and couldn't correct it. Not a big priority but would be a nice to have.
reply
I thought you can edit poll options within 10 minutes of posting?
reply
No you can edit the post but not the poll options.
reply
Oh, hmm. Can you delete options and add new ones?
I seem to recall considering this when I made the change to make poll votes anonymous, but I could be misremembering. It also could have changed since then
reply
There is a delete option but I thought was to delete the entire post.

When they say "people won't run nodes," I hear "people won't own computers and run modems." If the apparent benefit greatly exceeds the cost, people will do the thing. The apparent benefit of running a node are low and the costs are high, but will that always be the case?

the dictator's regime continues to attack, now they have just restricted access to Binance for users in Venezuela... I know that bitcoin is the solution to this because they cannot censor it, but there are still people who do not handle bitcoin, and their way of entering cryptocurrencies was through Binance's p2p, this is a big problem, blocking of funds, delay in payments, loss of financing from relatives abroad, among other things...

#Ph-SN020 No shoes allowed 👞🚫
Today I share this photo, taken in a magical place located in Ecuador. A place full of Peace, during this trip and being in this hostel made me think that maybe in the future I would like to dedicate myself to a business of this style in some equally peaceful place near the sea.
It was a fun surprise, when we saw that shoes were literally prohibited inside the place. But it was certainly a fascinating and liberating experience.
I continue to publish my photo every day, to meet my personal challenge until I reach 100, 1000. The first level was easy (10) But from there it gets better and more difficult. 💪🤠⚡🍊

Let's talk about beers. Instead of using a territory for this, I think the best place to talk about beers is in a Saloon.
So which beer do you like more and WHY?
My favorite one is Leffe (belgian), mostly blonde (6.6º) , but also the Rituel (9º). In my whole life, I've tasted a lot of beers, from many different places.
I am still open to suggestions. So please send me opinions and links if you have about other good beers. I am not impressed by the price or fancy things, just the taste. Not always the most expensive beer is the best. For example in the "normal" range, I also like the San Miguel beer (5.5º). Is very good for the summer time. But beers under 4º or no alcohol are a shitcoin for me.
reply
I only like to drink beer whenever watching movie and with chips / fried chicken 😌

ever tried Raki? not beer tho.
reply
Raki is something else, it have 40º alc.
reply
yes, but normally I just grab the Efes beer in Turkey. 👀

and another non-beer drinks I like is mixing lemon juice, salt, and mineral water, amazing for summe! ( hahah, or ignore this if all you want is beer )
reply
You like documentaries too. Here, watch this documentary about how beer saved the world... accompanied with a beer
reply
I always found miller high life pretty easy to drink. Its just a bit smoother than some of the other beer. Not saying it is the best or anything.
reply
Due to the bacteria and other enzymes and stuff that a beer contain, not everybody can drink a beer or many beers. I have a friend that cannot drink any beer, due to his low tolerance to beer in his stomach. No problem... more beer for me :) and he's a nocoiner that still do not believe in Bitcoin too. So more sats and more beer for me.
reply
It might not be the beer itself. He might just have an allergy to the type. I have a friend that cant drink it because of the type of grain, but can drink other types.
reply
Have you tried Rochefort 10? It’s one of my favourites. Strong but very tasty. 11º
reply
YES! Very good one! Thanks for mentioning. Is not so easy to find it. Is not a "premium" beer, not a cheap regular beer, but is really nice, really tasty ! For the 11º is not so expensive too.
reply
And I leave you one I tried first time last year in Belgium. This one is harder to find away from Belgium. 10º.

Oh once I had the opportunity to drink one, ♀the old fezziwig. A friend of mine bring it to me and I was really nice surprised by the taste. The 5.9º with a nice color and taste, I like it. The 5.9º is quite attractive.

I wonder, if there is a way to set it up, so that we can automatically transfer sats we stack here to other external wallets?
It would be cool to be able to allocate percentages in the same way we can with posts. I’d like to be able to send royalties to people in my family and to various wallets (savings for different purposes and whatnot)
I wonder what you all think of this idea? I’m always wondering how we can automate wallet transfers and I love the royalty per post concept but I know my mom and my daughters aren’t ready for nostr/sn. And if something ever happened to me I wouldn’t want my sats to be stranded here.
reply
You can attach wallets and set an autowithdraw for flat amounts, I don't think it has the functionality for your royalty idea yet though.

“A poet is somebody who feels, and who expresses his feelings through words.
This may sound easy. It isn’t.
A lot of people think or believe or know they feel — but that’s thinking or believing or knowing; not feeling. And poetry is feeling — not knowing or believing or thinking.
Almost anybody can learn to think or believe or know, but not a single human being can be taught to feel. Why? Because whenever you think or you believe or you know, you’re a lot of other people: but the moment you feel, you’re nobody-but-yourself.
To be nobody-but-yourself — in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else — means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting.”

Day #35 POD (Proof of Donation)

I set myself a goal of reducing my photos to 2300 this long weekend.
Attained that and set the bar higher - gonna reduce it to 2200 photos.
Now, I have 2218 photos on my phone. This explains why I’m on fire busily converting my photos into zaps here ⚡️.
Actually, I think I’m gonna make losses for some of my posts because uploading photos costs a lot of money.
But I frame it as supporting the territory founders whom I consider my friends.
Most importantly, I feel alive because endorphins just rush over me every time I manage to post a photo and delete it on my phone.
reply
Good exercise! I have already checked after you mentioned. Almost 3000 in my phone only. I have to try reducing them, especially those which are rubbish.

Disobedience

The word disobedience means the failure, refusal or neglect to obey rules imposed by someone in authority.
However you can only disobey a rule if you had already accepted the obligation of the contract from where the rule is stipulated, and therefore the authority from the person issuing said rule.
Many people make the mistake of “disobeying” a baseless order, which inadvertently places them under obligation to follow, when they should have just questioned the obligation all along.
