We have long been working on testing desktop wallets but it's really tricky as there is just so many binaries floating around for what claims to be the same product. Even Bitcoin Core is showing 8 download options depending on your operating system or distribution channel preference:

With snapcraft obviously being tricky:

Either way, for desktop wallets, most of the time people have download links and want to verify those downloads, so Chris is working on a binary checker. It's still only a draft merge request and clearly needs a design but what it will enable is actually pretty cool:

WalletScrutiny calculates the hash of the file dropped onto it and if it's an apk, it also determines the appId which allows finding the right product. If the hash is known, the verdict is immediately displayed. If not, the page invites the user to upload the file for analysis.
The attestations for artifacts will live on nostr as signed events and nostr will also be used to advertise the existance of new binaries for reviewers.
Understandable! It would be nice, when funding allows it of course, to see a small selection being reviewed like Bitcoin Core, #Sparrowwallet and #Electrum for instance.
Imagine picking up a Sears Roebuck and Co. Catalogue from 1897, the amount of stuff that were produced, processed and shipped does raise some questions. Cool stuff regardless

Charged with petrol powered charging stations?
Still kinda new to Lightning. Yesterday I setup #AlbyHub on my Start9. After opening my first channel it appears my megalith LSP channel keeps showing "offline". Is there something I need to do or is this out of my hands? The result is that I can't rebalance my channel. I did open a second channel to Olympus.
LSPs basically take the hassle of channel management over, if I do start to add peers and connections how will this impact the usage of LSPs? Secondly I reckon I will have to start backing up channels as well right? This can't be done within AlbyHub how do others do this? Via LND watchtowers? Or simply using Thunderhub additionally?

There's more to this world then one could perhaps imagine 
Is someone willing to share an invite code for Alby? Would love to get my hands dirty with the new #AlbyHub :D
#AskNostr #getAlby
The latter ;)
I'd love to use #AlbyHub do I need an invite code to get that set up?
ANY HELICOPTER NERDS?? 🚁
Had at least two of these helicopters fly over the house last night
Does anyone recognize this chopper?
They look like military to me

From this distance difficult to determine, if you're near area where naval/marines operate this could also be a ch-46 Sea Knight. They are smaller (shorter/less wide) compared to the ch-47 chinook
Looking at how the EU operates this won't be an isolated case. Exchanges have little tools at the moment for classifying Lightning Network transactions. Blockchain Analysis companies might want to bolster they can, the reality is that most are avoiding the subject (when talking to/educating their clients). I can only imagine that this will expand among more countries/jurisdictions
follow up, when I check the details it shows the "token is pending", clicked on the "claim" button. Yet the pop-up shows "the token has already been spent"
I was playing with #0xchat and #minibits,ansd expierenced multiple errors when creating #ecash #cashu tokens. The moment I tried to claim them in #minibits it showed me they were already spent... Sats are indeed gone from my 0xchat wallet.Question is where did they go? #asknostr
