I like coinos as an external wallet but getting a lot more failed zaps than I expected. Might need a backup plan.

I think if cashu.me could run the NWC stuff on a server so you don't have to have the wallet open in a tab to send+recv would make it a very nice wallet for SN if one doesn't mind not one but two layers of custody.

I added a PR for receives today. Let's see where this goes.

10 sats \ 2 replies \ @Rothbardian_fanatic 24 Oct

Some of the best times come when your kid is old enough to understand what is going on around him or her. I once made a demonstration of how long you get to interact with a kid with quality time. I took a 72 inch string to represent the full life of your child. Then I cut about 51 inches off of it, to represent when your child becomes an adult. Then I cut off 5 more inches to represent your child getting a driver, license. On the other end, I cut off 5 inches to represent them being too young to do a lot with as a father. That left 11 inches, representing the eleven years you have a chance to have quality time with you child that can never be replaced. Those are the years you get to turn your child from a kid into an adult in the image you would like him or her to be. Only those 11 years!!

10 sats \ 1 reply \ @TheWildHustle 24 Oct

Not sure what type of parent I'll be. I'm assuming I'd be the hands off type....hopefully not neglectful. I'd be happy as long as they are a truth seeker, wouldn't want to shape them into something that they end up regretting, although I'm not sure what direction or how much hand holding/shaping is necessary. I really should focus on spending quality time with the kid, 11 years seems like a lot but out of 72 it seems extremely short. Thanks for the advice and story.

CNN: "Under Donald Trump, you criticized the wall more than 50 times. You called it stupid, useless and a medieval vanity project. Is a border wall stupid?"

Kamala: "Let's talk about Trump."

CNN: But you approved a project to continue building the wall, is that stupid or not?

Kamala: What Donald Trump did is stupid, but I support good ideas.

CNN: So you support the wall.

2. Never answer to your Name

You must get into the habit of not answering to your name; either in person, or over the phone.

You will already know what these people are trying to do; they wish to contract with your legal identity, and not you as a living breathing man or woman.

This will become evident when they use the word Mr or Mrs before your name.

You can respond to this in a couple of ways:

Option 1

First simply reply that “MR [your name]” isn’t you, and therefore offer declined, and end the conversation there and then.

If they try and insist, ask if they have any evidence that you are indeed your legal title i.e. “MR [your name]”, which of course they do not have.

Note: This is where your affidavit of status comes into play, but do not tip your hand yet, you want them to incriminate themselves first.

Option 2

You take the offensive route and not answer their question, but instead return a question back at them requiring them to identify themselves first.

They made the first move in this game, now it’s your turn, and you’re not backing down.
