Imagine using Google (Chrome) to share your passwords across devices. And of course, it’s a great idea to use Gemini to enquire about specific passwords. 😄

My ISP has been down for 6 hours, and I'm browsing on my mobile hotspot through Obscura which reminds me again that websites need to be much smaller and more optimized. It's terrible how much bandwidth waste we've come back to these days, just because customers want cheap websites and therefore let amateurs create them.

Holy shit, I just got a Bit Axe today, downloaded datum onto my Start 9 and now I'm mining on Ocean using my own block templates. Amazingly easy to set up.

Good morning nostr 👑
Do not underestimate the KNOWLEDGE you obtain from being in bitcoin
Just as powerful (maybe even more) as the financial gains IMO

The bad news is: the NIP repo has become more of a public humiliation ritual than a useful collaboration tool. The good news is: nobody follows those specs, anyway, so you don't need to waste your time reading them.

"A quarter of all Muslims today exist as a minority - they are overlooked by many. However, they are an important part of the ummah. [...]
The oldest community outside Mecca, that in Ethiopia, accounts for 36 percent of all inhabitants in this African country. Other leading, and in some cases historical, minorities include those of China (28 million), Tanzania (21 million), Russia (16 million), Côte d'Ivoire (9 million) and the Philippines (6 million). [...]
India is the second largest community in the world with an estimated 213 million members (as of 2020). It is estimated that it will overtake Indonesia in terms of size in the next 50 years.
What many people are not aware of is that some of the population groups listed in a minority situation are larger than those of OIC states. For example, there are more people living in India than in Nigeria and Egypt combined. There are more Muslims in Ethiopia than in Saudi Arabia, more in China than in Syria, more in Tanzania than in Somalia and more in Russia than in Tunisia.
In the Euro-American region, there were around 29 million members in 2020. This is a comparatively new development, as most communities emerged after 1945. [...] According to some estimates, there will be a total of 45 million Muslims in the “western nine” countries.
Today, more Muslims live in France, Germany, Great Britain and Italy than in the only Muslim countries in Europe, Albania and Kosovo."

I just saw Kendrik Lemar's performance at SB. I didn't even know he was popular. Man, the performance, the rap ... everything about it was so bad. You can really see the decline since Michael Jackson.

I had to think today of a passage from "The Bitcoin Standard," where Ammous explained the influence of the fiat system on art, alongside family and technological innovations. In earlier times, artists needed years of honed craftsmanship to create masterpieces that survived for centuries. They bled and sweated for it under the gold standard.
And how today we produce a pile of crap in comparison. Our music is crap, our paintings are crap, our buildings are ugly and our texts are crap. And what we spew out on the internet is the crap of crap. Texts with as much depth as a puddle. Art that has degenerated into memes. Just take a look at the "artists" presenting their primitive drawings here in their introduction notes. My 10-year-old makes better pictures in 10 minutes.
Shouldn't we Bitcoiners adopt a different attitude, in line with our low time preference? Or does this mindset only return when we fully embrace the Bitcoin standard? In any case, simply hodling Bitcoin in an otherwise fiat-surrounded life is not enough. The low time preference must lead to our family relationships being fixed, the number of 0-to-1 innovations increasing, and our artworks outliving us. Otherwise, we haven't truly felt Bitcoin at all. We have only hoarded it greedily.

You think it would make people mad to make a public Nostr archive that doesn't respect delete requests?

Any recommendations for onboarding newbies?
Recently I have convinced one friend to join nostr and give a it try, however he does not want to pay for any relays unless he is confident it will be actually useful for him. Unfortunately, he struggles to find interesting content (he is not in Bitcoin). Besides hashtags, what would be your recommendations?
#asknostr
Maybe #asknostr?
Running pruned Bitcoin node for Lightning was one of the biggest mistake I have made
