#Bitcoin Information wants to be free. Speak my mind but nice.

I tried using it back in 2013 for a college assignment. Was definitely not intuitive. I'll give it another crack.

Just watched a short movie called "Spring" made in Blender. Way cool! That project has come far!

Was my fault. Had it on the kitchen table when I was hanging a lamp. Lamp feel and broke the screen. You live and learn πŸ™‚

That's why I got so surprised when you said "well no lnurl?" Mooching isn't really my thing πŸ’œ

Why do sad? You're not the one who broke your ColdCard πŸ™ƒ

Ah okay... 🫣 ??

Those guys (and people like them) did so much for the space. I spend hours reading the cypherpunk mailing lists in awe. A space that was so much more than just digital currency. It was inevitable that Bitcoin would come from that world.

It looks *really cool* but I like to keep things simple with Bitcoin stuff. Not sure I need a keyboard.

Oh noes! Just crunched my ColdCard Mk4. Buying a new one with shipping is awfully close to 777777 sats πŸ˜… 772781 sats. A heavenly sign that I probably should buy it? πŸ˜‚

Yeah it's kinda neat. I used jq to grab the hex. Made it human readable. Then strings to get rid of all the junk around it. All you're left with is the message and nothing else.

If you are running core bitcoin you can easily read Satoshi's first message directly out of the blockchain. The famous "The Times 03/Jan/2009..."

I was wondering where that came from! Thanks! I'll be getting a new Google phone soon. Right now I'm using a OnePlus. Can't say I really like where OnePlus went.

Picked up a copy of Janeway's Immunobiology 10th edition when I had rona last week. Really fascinating! Would love to take some courses in this stuff. Between shit posts last night I was reading about dendritic cells, Th1/Th2 responses, CD4+ CD8+ t-cells etc. Probably should read The Cell first. This is a bit over my head πŸ˜‚
