I wish we had a similar iPhone -> GrapheneOS for Macbooks.

Macbook -> ???

This needs to be in equal terms of battery life and hardware capability.

Aus einem Interview hab ich das

"Als Marxist zählt nur eines, die Produktionsmittel in die Hand zu bekommen, solange man das nicht hat, bleibt man Tagelöhner."

Harald Schmidt über Jan Böhmermann

I am open to recommendations on a platform to make Broken Money easily buyable with sats, either print+ebook or just ebook (since I won’t be handling physical shipping).

Let me know some of the best ways to proceed and I’ll look into them.

This first round is print books on Amazon, which is done. Next in the queue is the kindle version which should be available within a week or so.

And then the audiobook will come out. It’s in development but it takes time.

In parallel with the audiobook, I will be working to have it available in print in Barnes and Noble and other bookstores.

And I will figure out a way to make it buyable in sats. As I said, I am open to suggestions on the best way to do that. Any books I happen to sell in person will of course be buyable with cash or sats.

And then depending on sales figures, I will be looking into translation options.

All of the profits from the first thousand copies sold (about $5 per book) will go to the Human Rights Foundation Bitcoin Development Fund.

And for those for whom the book price is a burden or distribution is an issue, perhaps because they live in countries where the money is most broken, I invite them to pirate it.

Through some testing in production, all accounts I follow are now gone. Leave a "🤙" so I can follow the plebs again

Interested to hear your thoughts or successes/failures in this regard:

"I have a process that has worked really well for onboarding people to holding their own keys, and its ~3 steps. The opening is the most important because 99% of people just don't care or are interested for all of 10 seconds and then forget about it the moment you leave.

The singular reason I have used @walletofsatoshi recently is because they have Lightning Address by default. It isn't even about lightning. If I just wanted to send them a $10 tip and be done with it, then we'd use @PhoenixWallet, which is where I shift them after they have a meaningful amount & want to know what to do with it.

But that's not what I was trying to do, because that's not what *they* care about, it's what *I want them* to care about. Instead I go for something with easy lightning address (which Greenlight + @Breez_Tech might fix in the coming weeks completely non-custodially), so that people on social can tip them. Then they spend the next 2 days seeing tons of zaps flood into their wallet.

The simple fact is, it's exciting. It's interesting. It catches their attention repeatedly over the period of a few days. It keeps them engaged for longer. *Then* it becomes possible to make them care about what it is, and why they should think about it differently.

I think it's me being completely self-centered & have found it completely unsuccessful to boot, to think I can force someone to come at something with *my* perspective or to demand that they care about it the way that *I* do, instead of realizing what is relevant to them and starting from there.

I've been doing this for 12 years. If all you want to do is posture on socials that you are "more pure" or whatever, then go ahead and I hope you get something out of it. But if you want to actually succeed at changing peoples' minds, I'm happy to talk about what has or hasn't worked for me and maybe we can learn something from each other.

No hard feelings. Just trying to get us closer to a #Bitcoin future where everyone can be sovereign and more importantly, understands why they should care about it. You do it your way. I know what has worked for me and I'm always open to suggestions if you have any good ones."

The only pitfall I see with Nostr is that if/when your identity is exposed, since the data can never be deleted, you’re stuck with all of your history exposed to the world forever. Am I right? Is there a solution to this?

Friend opens #Damus. No postings. Nothing for minutes.

I have a look: only 5 from 18 relays online.

'Why should I use this #nostr thing when it doesn't work at all?'

If you somehow send the right bitcoiner or panel of bitcoiners on Rogan that vibes with him and makes him get it:

Can it be self-hosted like vaultwarden?

A little birdie told me "Telegram bad", so I use matrix instead

Get a small Lenovo thinkcentre and you are good.

Wir werden bald eine Folge zu #GrapheneOS machen — was interessiert euch? Lasst uns gerne Fragen und Anregungen da, wir werden versuchen es möglichst praxisnah zu besprechen und wollen euch den Umstieg schmackhaft und leicht machen.
