My holiday tradition is watching really bad ‘80 movies. 🍿
Last night I watched Masters of the Universe from 1987. Oldest movie that I know of starring Courtney Cox (she’s as pretty as ever in this movie).
Also surprised to see that Tom Parris of #voyager fame also starred in this movie 😃
Today I discovered that Jeff Goldblum's greatest performance was in fact in the movie "The Adventures Of Buckaroo Banzai" from 1984 🤯
Yeah I’m reading you 😂
This is a great statistic. I’ve shared this on my free open Bitcoin only newsletter (via WhatsApp): https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va9PHyn2975Gqo9RkZ0m
😂 that would be a power move
I've remarked before that #NOSTR is the perfect protocol to base a new photo sharing platform on.
What if NaturePics is nothing more but a paid relay that only accepts and relays notes from it's own client (maybe by adding a field in the note that is basically a f=(AxB) where A=the NPUB and B a hardcoded password in the clientapp and f=the code that makes your note be allowed on the relay. B can be updated every now and then to prevent spam attacks on this relay.
In this gated NOSTR community you own your social graph (because well hidden is settings is your NSEC) but you only see nature pictures.
NaturePictues is just one example off course, but I know that the sharing-pics-between-platforms is a real hassle. What if some friends are on Android and some on Apple (and don't have a gmail account) ? Then Google Photodrive is not an option, and neither is a shared Apple-Photo-Album.
Making a cross-platform-photo sharing app is one of the many ways NOSTR can be utilised 😃 nostr:note1e3lk3zcmh5vftqxc3jqe0ng9h7h3lw002yaak0ut3adhdnuct2eqr5qxrt

If you are in Europe and want to shop new cloting with big discounts, you might be interested to try BestSecret. Here is a code that gives you even more discount (and gives me VIP points, whatever those are).
I just drove 80km in north Italy and 4 separate times I saw police cars that stopped drivers and where writing them tickets.
That’s a police stop every 20km. Italians are either doing something very wrong or something very right 🤔
Can we be real for a second? We have poisoned our food supply, engineered highly addictive chemicals that we put into our food. We spray it with pesticides that kill pests. What do you think they do to our gut lining and our microbiome? And then they come in sick. The GI tract is reacting. It's not an acute inflammatory storm. It's a low grade chronic inflammation. And it makes people feel sick, and that inflammation permeates and drives so many of our chronic diseases that we didn't see half a century ago.

We cannot keep going down this path. We have the most over-medicated, sickest population in the world. And no one is talking about the root causes. The Pima Indians are the perfect example. Here is a group where the obesity diabetes rate was less than 1%. The land in New Mexico and Arizona had its rivers supplied, diverted by ranchers and settlers, and the land and the soil was destroyed. The government, recognizing this tremendous injustice, started to send free government food, but it wasn't organic kale and fruit and vegetables, it was processed and junk food. Instantly, the Pima Indians developed an obesity, diabetes rate of 90 percent.

When we have relays that also store content (like large videos) they’ll be more value for their money.
But here in Europe using Instagram means either seeing advertisements or paying about $15 per month.
Yes, per month. Nobody pays this I think, but if that is the competition than we might have a chance against the legacy world.
BOLT-12 solves for receiver privacy, Taproot channels solve for chain analysis, and PTLCs solve for malicious routers and enable async payments for mobile devices and browser extensions. We're seeing it in use all over the world.
Is there any more Lightning FUD that hasn't been addressed by the latest developments on layers? What is Lightning missing as a fully complete alternative to shitcoins like Monero?

Argos, the revolutionary tool that makes visible the hidden patterns and cascading effects of retractions on scientific research.
Very good idea: being able to unfollow the weak link 👍

This is exactly how I expect the first wave of #AI scientific discovery to happen.
The #Apple #EarpodsPro2 have active noise canceling.
But they are unable to filter the Italian Grandpa Who’s Calling His Granddaughter On Speakerphone.
I just tried 😂
Where are the Palestinians in Gaza on Nostr that I can Zap directly if I feel like helping them out?

It makes no sense to me that an OG from the 1st era of ₿ would dox himself to Kraken like this.
Why not send the coins to Liquid first? Or to a DEX?
Sorry. Bit too late now. But you can prevent jet lag by going to sleep and waking up at certain times specific to your destination.
You can use the Time Shift app to calculate these 😅
