How about a little levity, some Friday fun?
Remember the old "You might be a redneck if..." shtick by Jeff Foxworthy from the 1990s?
Two that I remember went like this:
If you gave your wife earrings that double as fishing lures, you might be a redneck.
If you think the "Nutcracker Suite" is something you do off the diving board, you might be a redneck.
What about a bitcoin version: You might be a bitcoiner if...
If you speak fluent hodl and fud, you might be a bitcoiner.
If you think seeds do not need dirt, you might be a bitcoiner.
If "hashrate" to you doesn't mean weed-per-week, you might be a bitcoiner.
If your safe word is vByte, you might be a bitcoiner.
If you think cold is better than hot, you might be a bitcoiner.
If your family has called you a retard, you might be a bitcoiner.
If an obvious eyeroll is seen after "bitcoin" comes out of your mouth, you might be a bitcoiner.
If "back in the day" refers to any time longer than two weeks ago, you might be a bitcoiner.
If your family Thanksgiving dinner conversation includes, "Okay, here we go...," you might be a bitcoiner.
If someone threatens to zap you and you're happy, you might be a bitcoiner.
If your bedroom has purple drapes and an orange comforter, you might be a bitcoiner.
If you talk about Alice and Bob, but don't know anyone named Alice and Bob, you might be a bitcoiner.
If your food pyramid consists of protein, protein, protein, and steak, you might be a bitcoiner.
If pizza is a holiday, you might be a bitcoiner.
If you've unfriended someone when they asked, "So, how much bitcoin do you...," you might be a bitcoiner.
If you've considered "more sats" instead or "more food," you might be a bitcoiner.
If you read, "Bitcoin is dead," and begin to salivate, you might be a bitcoiner.
If you once did an hour of work to earn two sats and were thrilled when you got them, you might be a bitcoiner.
If you hear a report including CBDC, SEC, LN, UTXO, CFTC and don't miss a beat, you might be a bitcoiner.
If your scrolling has more ostriches and honey badgers than cats and dogs, you might be a bitcoiner.
If you feel that the new year starts on January 3, you might be a bitcoiner.

Schwab might move toward offering investment in #bitcoin (not just bitcoin ETF). Not sure how that would play out. I'm guessing they buy and custody it for customers, with a nice fee shaved. And not sure how that's much different than an EFT except maybe customers can redeem in BTC rather than USD. (?)
Will there ever be a reason or need to fractionation sats into smaller parts? Would that even be technically possible? #bitcoin
Legal then illegal, back and forth. Still, this sounds good.

If #bitcoin hits 100k today, I'll eat ...
... a bowl of that chili I just made!
Working on pledge #6. https://stacker.news/items/774165
Sounds like Trump might pick a #bitcoin chief to head up his crypto council. This is part of bitcoin pledge #6 below, but the leader role is a new twist.

Trump #bitcoin report card - progress report 1
Michael Saylor gave a great recap of American "Manifest Destiny" in history and outlined a future Manifest Destiny 2.0 with #bitcoin. This is realpolitik today and the window of time to "plant the flag" is now and narrow.
Trump is at 2017 in his crypto journey. He's past "it's a scam" and now he's dropping ICOs and going altcoin degen. It's a process.
Sure, I'm not too proud to ask for help. :) I made notes with screenshots at https://docs.google.com/document/d/1X4N317YETId-iAQBijfjpuY7rXRBLI6Ww1ITf68sEuY/edit?tab=t.0
Wish I knew. I tried on a Linux VPS, says running on port 8080, but that's as far as I get. The front end part I don't see. I tried on fly.io but the app won't load in browser.
I like this outside-the-box kind of thinking. Probably not perfect, but better than just doing the same old thing that's been done for decades.

Hah, made me look. My wife and I on a road trip got into a back and forth with how many words there are to describe a nitwit. There's a lot and most made us laugh.
I think I got it connected at least on nostrudel. Not sure if it's necessary to do that for each client though. Anyway, thanks for the tip...helping me learn and test.
>Weekend after next is First Advent.🕯️
Wow and yikes, time moves fast.
Nice. Now I gotta figure out how/if Coinos can do zaps. I'm looking for an Alby substitute...the Alby Hub thing is not jiving with my brain! Can't get it working and don't want to spend thousands of monthly sats. :)
Just did a bolt12 to somebody, simple and fast. Any way to connect Coinos to send/receive nostr zaps?
