Ok, I'm tired and ready to relax for the evening. We finished putting the netting around the chicken tractor, so they have alot more room to run around and forage for bugs and stuff. I'm waiting to make sure they go back in the tractor before dark. And then our freezer on the back porch quit working, so we found a used one on craigslist and picked it up. Those things are heavy, but we got it done. The thing is, after we got that one set up, the old one started working again, so we put that one in the shop for now. My husband says he can use the extra space for our meat rabbits. Speaking of craigslist, I wish we had a nostr craigslist. Anyway, I'm done for the day. Yall have a good night nostr friends, and dont forget to give thanks for all the good things in your life.😊 #grownostr #countryliving #chickens

Another busy day in the country! Sounds productive.

Years ago, my landlord kindly replaced my refrigerator that was a 1950's (I think) model with no brand name (the kind that you had to "defrost" the freezer periodically. This coincided with "mop the kitchen floor day" for reasons that you may probably imagine). More importantly, it was the kind with a door that covered both the freezer on top and the refrigerator on the bottom, and the freezer door was lost to history, so setting the temperature was quite a balancing act.

Anyway, when the brand new thing arrived, I had the delivery people help me take the old one to the curb (we can still do that in New Orleans, or at least we could then). Literally before it hit the sidewalk, some dude pulled up and asked "does that work?" I told him that it did, kinda, and he told us to hold on while he got his truck and took it away.

I like to think that the old refrigerator is still pumping away, maybe 70+ years old, keeping someone's meat frozen or someone's beer cold (but not likely both at the same time). Recycling didn't start in the 21st century after all..:)

Older appliances really do last longer than modern ones.

+1! I was just thinking about how a craigslist running on Nostr would be epic.

Dang you got a lot done...I got a list a mile long for my days off from work.

Nostr Craigslist is a great idea. You should start writing the code for it. Can't be too difficult. It's better than Craig's list cause everyone's already got a satoshi wallet. Transactions are built into the protocol.

Apple pulling Damus has been a big hit though. Is there viability without Apple?

I'm not a coder, so have cant help there, but it would be a great idea.
