I will start with umbrel. It seems more complete with more apps.

This is ​#[1]​ at Les Grandes Bergeronnes, Québec, Canada. Taken on New Year’s Day 2015.

This place is my favourite place on earth thus far. This is is where roughness and softness meet. The vibe, in winter just as in summer transports you in a state of inner peace that I have never felt elsewhere before. There is something about this place. I don’t know what it is. It gives you instant inner calm.

In summer, we get spoiled with a ballet of whales, a few hundred feet from this granit shore. No need to get on noisy polluting speedboats to watch them. This is a time of peaceful communion between wildlife and mankind.

On clear nights, you can sleep on the rocks and see the Milky Way so clearly while listening to a concert of whales blows spread miles apart.

In winter, the grand spectacle of ices dancing on the St Lawrence hypnotizes you and if you are watching close enough, a curious seal will point its head out in between two plates of ice. You can walk on a multitude paths of snow within forests of spruce in a complete silence.

Going there every year in both those seasons is a resourceful moment to look forward to. Hopefully this year I will go with #[2]​ and his sister. My dear children.

For a sys-admin / dev wanting to run his own nodes (#nostr relay, #bitcoin & #lightning node), would you recommend using something like umbrel or eos, or go raw and install things from source to really learn and understand what’s under the hood?

And, would you recommend going on self hosted hardware or a is a VPS sovereign enough?

Gradually moving my sats out of exchange into non custodial wallet. I love this new journey I got into. First #nostr, then #bitcoin and #lightning. This got me to a wonderful space time in my life at #nostrica. Where will I go next? Write #nostr apps? Set up my own relay? Run my own BTC and LN nodes? Build BTC and LN into my business model? Oh yeah 🤙. All of it!

Haha no. Not banned from

Anywhere yet 😅

Just not in budget: got other plans for my money this year. Van build, road trips to Magdalena islands, Nova Scotia, flight Brazil for a month, kids to help out, can’t do it all!

Jab jab cross! Stay focused and bon appétit!

Bonne nuit nautruche!

Because I cannot go 🥺😭

Bear with me I have not yet read the good books. I will. But some questions just crossed my mind.

What’s going to happen once all 21M BTC are mined?

People are just going to exchange #bitcoin between themselves and exchange value for value using lightning and do swaps?

What [factors] is going to make the BTC price fluctuate then?

Will the blockchain system consume as much energy at that time?

3 months into the rabbit hole. Looking forward to my first #bitcoin meetup next week 🥹
