I'm in your Bluetooth, looking at your device ID. GM.

Ԍood morning and pura vida, Nostr! It's time to create notes and send zaps! 🫂🤙🏻💜

I see you there, building that app, analysing your promt, debugging that code, grinding away. It's impressive. Keep it up.

Now that outbox is (mostly) out of the way, here are the next major tasks we have ahead of us:

- New text parser/renderer

- Add Pokey, kill our push notification server

- Add local DB for long term storage

- Add support for NostrNests with join

- Add support for bitchat, MLS and pollerama

- Add full NWC wallet

- Add support for Nostr Cashu wallets

- Add post scheduling

- Add Contact Cards with private follows

- Add Follow List management

- Add Algo relay support

- Add local WoT support

- Rebuild the profile screen

- Rebuild the thread screen

- Migrate Quartz to Multiplatform KMP with a separate project per NIP

Did I miss anything?

The Bitaxe never sleeps. Always hashing, always decentralizing the hardest money ever!

#Bitaxe #Mining #Bitcoin #BTC #SoundMoney #GN #HardMoney

Good to know, I was going to get it for monero, since I use dedicated bitcoin wallets for bitcoin.

Good to hear! Glad you got it figured out!

How about trying a different wallet, but using that seed phrase?

you can just lurk

If Bitcoin was real there would be a banner at the top of coinmarketcap saying "ALERT: Bitcoin network currently impacted by an unresolved transaction issue - see asknostr thread for details"

I think BTC will change people, at least it has changed my life, changed my values and focus.

Bitcoin fixes money.

Nostr fixes communication.

Don’t let centralized apps hijack Bitcoin culture.

Build parallel structures—or we’ll repeat fiat’s mistakes.

I lived this lesson through my OrangePillApp ban, and I’m sharing it in Brick by Brick. TwentyOneLife is where we take these lessons forward and build the tools that align with Bitcoin values.

You know I was just kidding. Never send your seed phrase!

Send me your seed phrase and I'll download cake and see if it's there. Looks to be on the block inspection though.

Got my 30 minute in house walk in. Critters and poultry tended. Just finished harvesting and watered. Found a couple worms on the tomatoes. A few aphids, also. A good mess of green beans, some peppers and Indigo Rose tomatoes. Kale and chard underneath.

Wine and whiskey both contain alcohol.

But your body does not respond to them the same way.

From a health perspective, here is what actually matters🍷🥃🧵

What They’re Made From

Whiskey starts with fermented grains like corn, rye, wheat, or barley.

Different styles use different blends. Bourbon is mostly corn. Scotch is malted barley. Rye and Irish whiskey follow their own rules.

Once distilled, those differences mostly disappear.

Distillation strips away nearly everything except ethanol and water.

Red Wine starts with grapes and grapes naturally contain compounds that survive fermentation and end up in your glass. These include polyphenols, which have been studied for their ability to reduce inflammation, support blood vessels, and protect cells from oxidative stress.

Barrel Aging

Both wine and whiskey usually spend time in oak.

Whiskey can age for decades. Wine typically ages for a few years.

Barrel aging affects taste. It does not affect how your body processes the alcohol.

Sugar and Blood Sugar

Alcohol interferes with your liver’s ability to regulate blood sugar.

That is why drinking on an empty stomach can leave you shaky or foggy.

This effect is made worse when alcohol is paired with sugar.

Whiskey is often mixed with soda, syrup, or bottled cocktail blends and even unflavored whiskeys may contain added sugar or glycerin to smooth the taste. This spikes your blood sugar and crashes it fast.

To avoid the worst affects of whiskey:

- Skip flavored whiskeys and sweet mixers

- Look for "straight" or "bottled in bond" on the label

- Drink it neat or with water

Dry red wine has less than one gram of sugar per glass.

It will only produce a small rise with less of a crash.

Additives

There is no ingredients list required for wine or whiskey in the United States.

When you feel bad after drinking, that lack of transparency makes it hard to know what you are reacting to.

Wine can include Mega Purple, acidity regulators, gums, and excessive sulfites.

Whiskey can include caramel coloring, sugar, artificial flavorings, or texture enhancers like glycerol or glycol.

You cannot really avoid one single additive and ignore the rest.

These things tend to come together.

Tips to avoid them:

For wine, look for low-intervention producers. French and Italian bottles are often less manipulated and not hard to find.

For whiskey, get to know the producer if you can, but other than that, there's not much you can do.

Sourcing and Contaminants

Glyphosate has been found in many conventional wines, even some labeled organic.

Grapes are often heavily sprayed, and glyphosate is not routinely tested for.

Whiskey is distilled.

Distillation removes nearly all chemical residues, including glyphosate.

From a contamination standpoint, whiskey comes out ahead.

But it is not that hard to avoid glyphosate in wine.

My vineyard has never seen glyphosate.

The land has been farmed organically for over 100 years.

Tips:

Either verify that your producer has a similar commitment, or default to French or Italian wines where these chemicals are banned.

Whiskey gives you the downsides of alcohol, and very little else.

But at least you can drink it without a ton of sugar.

Red wine, especially low-intervention red, brings more to the table.

It retains polyphenols, organic acids, and fermentation byproducts.

It also contains quercetin, a compound that slows the breakdown of testosterone in your body.

If you are already drinking and want to choose the lesser of the evils, drink low-intervention red wine.

If you are focusing your business in creator tools, you don't need to code clients to display that content. Just work with the available clients to display whatever your tool creates in the best way possible. Win-win.

WoS's new sending animation is rad.

Good job on keeping things fun.

All 25. Still occasionally write checks; never wrote a cheque. Never removed my CD player, still have that and a tape cassette player in my ride.

All of them. Didn't use MSN messenger. Used ICQ !!!!!

Nostr, what is your score? 😂

Are you old, or not? 🫢

A short shot?

Sarracenia leucophylla has finally started putting out some very small pitchers, and yet a Daddy Longlegs spider has managed to cram itself into one of them.
