new feature just dropped so collaborators can hide from the shame

In the making! ☕ #coffeechain

We're proud to be launching Nostr+, a paid service for power Nostr users who want to get the most out of their Nostr community experiences. Nostr+ subscribers will get:

- increased uptime: redundancy in relay infrastructure gets you an expected 99.999% liveliness

- enhanced reach: if someone is following you they are very likely to see your notes

- revenue sharing: every time someone zaps you you'll get a percent of it

Hey nostr. Been a while 👋

Been suffering through a rough patch for quite a while now– but felt the need to pop in to say that Bitcoin, and by extension Bitcoiners, and Nostriches are some of the few things that still give me hope and positivity to hang on to.

Honestly wish I knew more of you in the ‘real world’ cause I could use some of that positivity in meatspace right now. Feeling surrounded and suffocated by fiat-minded people all around me. Lots of ‘friends’ have shown their true nature lately… but a select few others have come out to lend a hand right when it matters most.

Just want to say thanks for giving me some belief that things can still get better. 🤝 Keep building.

Instead of doing it randomly, maybe I should think about doing a handful of heart-to-heart notes on Nostr. Like when I’m annoyed by something, I put it in my Nostr category and write about it here. All my articles, books, interviews, and tweets can talk about my macro stuff, and here I can talk about human stuff. That is so far how I find myself using it.

People need a reason to be on Nostr. For some power users, they have good technical discussions here. For others, the inverse network effect can be hard. Plenty of people join, look around, and leave.

So I wonder, what content can I post only on Nostr that would be useful for helping Nostr adoption? The more I think about it, there are some thoughts I would share to a smaller group on Nostr and not to 600k followers on Twitter.

Even though notes can become kind of immortalized, sharing to a smaller and more selected group feels better. And if it’s a tech protocol I want to succeed, what can I put here to encourage people to come? Should I post my same macro stuff here as an afterthought? Or should I use it to post unique content that somehow feels better expressed here, for now? Seems like that’s a better option.

Thanks for helping me learn

That seems easy

Robosats + strike? Where I do all my DCA.

How does that work?

Do you think he has a chance?

Appreciate the heck out of both Peter and Odell. WTD was probably the first podcast that I listened to about bitcoin. After some time, I moved on to RHR and Dispatch. Opened my eyes to both self custody and privacy. Matt was one of the main reasons that I got my stack off of BlockFi. Just in time too!!!

What’s the oldest floppy disk you held in your hands?

• 8 inch

• 5.25 inch

• 3.5 inch

• Floppy disk?

I used 3.5” floppies back in the 90s a lot!

I remember that once I was copying NHL’97 from a friend on 100 FD only to realize it won’t work on my 486 machine (it required Pentium instructions to run).

In the early 90s I used 5.25” but it was not on my computer, it was friend’s.

End of 90s my dad brought me a couple of 8” FD, so I held them in my hands, but never used them with a computer, because there was none to use these around me at that time.

Boiler Up! #Purdue

Perhaps. I think Kaboomracks has a 30 day warranty? Can your miners get to the outside world? Do they connect to Braiins Pool?

ssh into it and check.

Launch terminal.

Type ssh root@ip.address

Enter your password

Type ping google.com

See if it gets success responses.

Control-C to stop.

Would definitely like to hear nostr talked about on podcasts in the future… I’d particularly like to hear a little bit of technical information about how the relays work.

As nostr grows in popularity does the number of relays decline due to increased cost/resource requirements to operate a relay? Or will some relays start pruning older content so they don’t grow into hundreds of terabytes and billions of messages? Does nostr become a paid service in the future with users paying sats for relays to broadcast events, otherwise I’m not sure I get the economic incentive for people to run a relay? So many questions about the economics of this system! But I’m totally here for it - screw Facebook and Twitter!

The goal is to make twitter unusable if you do not verify your identity.
