Breaking free of the programming will eventually make you a Person Of Interest, don't be mad or frustrated about it. It simply doesn't matter. We are simply pilgrims/sojourners in a world that isn't ours in the first place. It doesn't mean you don't have to care, please do! But use the energy in a positive way, because the system is nothing but a feedback loop. It will feed you back whatever you put in (^2). Don't let it, it will consume you alive and distracts us from our real objectives. Eventually you'll realise it has taken more precious time from you to learn/grow. This world is not what you think of it, it is lead by a trickster. PGP: C3CD7A0E50516ECF

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

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

I'd love to use #AlbyHub do I need an invite code to get that set up?

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

23 years ago today, the CIA orchestrated 9/11 under the guise of a large-scale coordinated terrorist attack. This false-flag event was then used as justification to expand domestic government overreach resulting in:

• widespread invasive surveillance of all communication platforms

• heightened restrictions on access to and use of financial services

• and among many other abuses of power, expanded federal authority over many things like what songs could be played on the radio to how many ounces of peanut butter one is allowed to carry on an airplane.

Not to mention the international implications from the resulting Global War on Terrorism but I digress.

If you're old enough to remember the way life was prior to 9/11 then I think you will agree that the world you were born into no longer exists. The systematic erosion of basic human rights has radically changed the way humans think, act, & communicate.

On this day, I think it is important to remember what life was like in a world before invasive government surveillance, crippling financial restrictions, & hypnotizing fear campaigns. I think it is important to highlight tools like Bitcoin, e2ee comms, & Nostr. They are especially fascinating to me specifically because they are anchored to the free world I came from where my financial transactions were my business and no one else's, where my communications were private, and where I could express my ideas without looming consequences.

If you're reading this then you are already clearly on the path and I encourage you to continue pushing forward and fighting for your freedoms, it is worth all the effort.

The world you thought existed did in fact not exist either, never has. Things have never been different, except for the way we observe and process our surroundings

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
