GM ☀️

Why do we say GM?

Nostr represents a radical leap toward a freer, more dynamic internet. With Nostr we get absolute free speech, open competition, and genuine user autonomy.

On Nostr, we control our identities through cryptographic keys, so we can join any community we want without losing our followers, content, or voice.

And because the network relies on many independent “relays” rather than a single central server, there’s no single gatekeeper to censor or deplatform you.

By integrating Bitcoin’s Lightning Network for micropayments, Nostr opens new possibilities for creators and entrepreneurs. Imagine zapping someone a few cents for a clever post or paying directly for valuable insights—no middleman, no hidden fees. It transforms social media into a global marketplace of ideas and services, free from the advertising-driven business models that dominate Big Tech.

Nostr offers a blueprint for disrupting entrenched monopolies in the same way open-source software upended proprietary giants. Instead of complaining about Silicon Valley’s control, we can build a world where users own their data, creators earn directly from their audience, and innovation happens in the open. It’s a rare glimpse of real progress—one that puts individual freedom and entrepreneurial spirit front and center.

We’re witnessing the reemergence of a truly open internet. If you believe that tech should empower people rather than exploit them, Nostr is where you want to be spending your time. Nostr is the most promising and disruptive idea since Bitcoin.

And on Nostr we say GM.

TL;DR: GM

Absolutely. Spoiled with the great skiing in Colorado.

Loved hearing the whole stadium sing it

A beautiful bluebird day.

I love skiing.

Anyone can read from the relay, but only white labeled npubs can write (post) to it.

Start9. Hands down.

Experience has been great with my diy machine. IIRC Umbrel doesn't always have the most up to date software. Haven't used it in a long time though.

#asknostr is there a #bitaxe variant with an ethernet connection instead of or in addition to wifi?

People are really sleeping on the sovereignty that nostr:npub126ntw5mnermmj0znhjhgdk8lh2af72sm8qfzq48umdlnhaj9kuns3le9ll, nostr:npub1qtvl2em0llpnnllffhat8zltugwwz97x79gfmxfz4qk52n6zpk3qq87dze, and a #bitaxe (or other miners) enable.

1. Buy or build a Start9 server.

2. Run Bitcoin Knots.

3. Run DATUM. Run it solo or pooled. Your choice.

4. Run a bitaxe or other miner and point it at your DATUM server.

5. Run a CLN node and open some channels (get some inbound liquidity too).

Now you're controlling your own data, running a bitcoin node, mining with block templates that you've set the rules to, earning the hardest money we have, and getting paid directly to your node. Sovereignty and network decentralization are unmatched.
