Chatgpt, your 5 minutes late to work! π
so, this morning i've been busy reconfiguring my mini pc box to actually cope with a power outage again
one of the problems is that the router it was behind is horribly slow at starting up, so the pc would come back quick smart and then none of the services would be running because they couldn't bind to any network device
so i've plugged it in direct to the upstream router now, and have a usb ethernet dongle for it
irritatingly, the wireless dongle that came as a freebie with the mini pc doesn't seem to want to be recognised, so i don't have wifi to use with my mobile phone currently
but all the services now start up correctly... bitcoin requires me to initiate the RDP connection however, but meh, if it gets out of date, it gets out of date after a rare power outage
i'm not sure i cbf getting it working as a client-server arrangement, i only have it there to use the GUI to make transactions and that's the main reason why i have it at all, because it's isolated from my main daily driver which means whatever stupid shit that crashes my workstation doesn't impact my bitcoin node so most of the time it's always online
the washing machine was clearly the cause of the power outage problems to date, it simply seems to be prone to developing a ground fault, as the landlord's gopher said "that drum makes a lot of noise when it spins" - so probably it's something inside it with conductive stuff dragging near the motor or something - when the lightning strike happened yesterday (it wasn't right here, but close) a big power surge and the current found the path through this ground fault and this time it was like it fused the ground path because now if you plug the device in, it flips the safety
i just rebooted the device now, and this self-hosted version of nostrudel dutifully restarted itself when the remote service restarted, so i know everything on there is now 100% starting up properly, and it all should now start up more or less immediately if my stupid house power circuit has another ground fault device installed, hopefully this will be the last time
https://mleku.net is also hosted off that little box as well, it's nice having it all right here in the room with me yet being able to share it to everyone, and to have the http git access so it even can let people use my stuff... still gonna have to probably do some work to build a Go-friendly git interface for distributed git hosting... got some ideas about adding a Git component alongside a Blossom server that is dedicated to hosting the commits of a collection of git repositories, and making the base addresses of these into consistent npub addresses of the repo owner... then we just need a secure way to enable multi-user upload access and pull restrictions and it's game over for github
Lool your crazy to run a node and not have a UPS. What happens if your node gets corrupted during power outage lol π
$10 of material, 5 minutes of time. Maybe a few hours of 1 time education. Just sayin
Gotta wake up in 4 hours ... π΄ πͺ π© #gn for reals this time.
In Canada all non profits π have to post their breakdown of their spending in a simple format lol. Don't don't hide that 30%+ of your donation goes to fundraising companies and 20% goes to administrative and board of directors. And then the rest goes to paying the staff to run the program + whatever supplies they are supplying. It's a scam. I've board of director member of save the children Canada and she was wearing the most expensive outfit with fancy necklace and earrings. I don't trust anymore, I verify baby π
Nether did the first person to think to go fishing.
I like to think give a man a fish. He eats for a day. Teach how to fish and eats forever. The best spare change you can give someone is not monetary.
I'm born retarded.
The term crypto are usually reserved for altcoins but regardless of all that because are can breakdown to meaninglessness when its all about point of view.
My two sats, There are scams everywhere. If money to be stolen, someone will con you out of it. Just ask my niggerian prince friend. I'm still waiting for my money back.
Bitcoin and Crypto are not the same π . Bitcoin didn't have a shady illegal overseas ICO π
There are plenty. I personally don't donate to charities after working on behalf of Save The Children. Lot of charities are scams.

Imagine doing a online performance on zap.stream and your "toys" don't activate unless a bitcoin invoice is paid. Use a program like streamlabs to control the camera angles and where you would control put the QR code on the screen.
Think about all the zaps you would receive to have a bunch of horny guys trying to get you off π.
I made a bitcoin enabled claw machine and jellybean dispenser running on same concept. Anything that runs on electricity and has a switch can be hacked and modded to accept bitcoin.
I can help walk you through/lead you to some videos. All you need to obtain is a sex toy, a $3 little micro computer called a arduino and some wires for like $2-$3. I'll let you run it off my node or help you run your own π .
Idk I thought you would benefit from this idea plus its something you could sell at a bitcoin marketplace met up π

Bookmark it if you have too. The dude who wrote it is super helpful and can be found on telegram. Someone needs to bring him to nostr π
I thought about making a bitcoin atm but I don't wanna get jumped by a man wearing a dress toronto needing to go see his friend, Rob Ford at Sherborn and Dundas at 3am π.
When I go to met up yes. Most the time I need to load their wallet it up because a lot of bitcoiners don't even know how lightning works π
It's not hard to replace jolly ranchers with crack π
