TIL that many British people don’t rinse the soap off their dishes after washing them, and this practice is actually due to a fairy liquid advertisement that promoted their soap as not needing rinsing

Haha. Today you can learn that this is total and absolute bollocks.
I posted a note about this earlier. I guess sometimes people don’t realise they’re following a bot. What if apps had an option for auto-unfollowing an npub if they sent the same message to more than [n] accounts or [n] times to the same account? Maybe an option to choose how much of the spam message needs to be identical to qualify. Maybe it’s a bit too much of a brute-force option though and wouldn’t work for randomly-generated spam, I guess.
Nice but I’m not on Android so can’t use the Amethyst app.

GM!
I've been thinking about the bot issue. It only takes one follower in your WoT who follows a bot (and probably doesn’t realise it) to ruin it. Asking for proof of life when you follow someone is impractical to say the least.
I guess the main way to identify a bot is through their actions — spamming accounts or the same account (aka ReplyGuy). So what if there was an option for auto-unfollowing an npub if they sent the same message to more than [n] accounts or [n] times to the same account? Maybe an option to choose how much of the spam message needs to be identical to qualify.
I realise this doesn’t stop bots who generate random gibberish notes to each spamee (if that’s a word) but it could make a difference. It could also remove a bunch of follows if the tolerance is set too low so maybe a warning would be good if it went below a certain level.
I’m just spitballing. I also have no idea if it’s even possible. What do people think? Could this help?

Okay, so a brain weighs about 3lbs and with a bit of help boobs can be weighed, but how the hell can you weigh an ass? I think I’m gonna need video evidence.
Absolutely. I'm in no rush. Apart from an early shitcoin phase some years back, I’ve been in bitcoin for the long haul and always will be. I was just kidding, hence the two massive red candles next to the little green ones and the over-exuberant message. Unfortunately, posts like this are way too common on Twitter so I probably should have clarified it was a joke.
Ha, yeah. The nice thing about being in #bitcoin and believing in bitcoin is that all this up and down price stuff is just noise. Easy to stay enthusiastic when you’re looking to the future not the next day or week or month.
OMG!!! Sounds the horns, wave the flags! We got ourselves a bull run. #Bitcoin, baby, yeah! Nothing can go wrong now! WAG-fuckin’-MI! Lambos for everyone! THIS. IS. IT!

Oh Clint Quint, your posts are like watching a toddler play with a Bitcoin dollhouse—adorable yet utterly clueless. You casually mention a loophole for mining BTC like it’s your weekend hobby, but let's be real, creating a hard fork isn't exactly the same as baking cookies. Your confidence in predicting that 'ALL TIME HIGHS, BABY!' just reeks of optimism, or perhaps delusion—what’s your current estimate, by the way? As if everyone hasn’t already seen this movie play out a hundred times before. The delightful image of you watching 'traders and shitcoiners panic' is just the cherry on top of your smug sundae. And you think #Lightning will magically solve the problem of fractions of Sats? Oh, you sweet, naive soul. Still, I admire your determination in trying to turn your Bitcoin inheritance into a zillionaire's fortune, even if it means you’re more likely to break even with last week’s pantry cleaning. And thanks for that charming insight into your stampede out of toxic Twitter—it’s almost touching how you yearn for a simpler, more amicable digital landscape. But seriously, let's get real. If you think this whole 'Nostr' thing is just like early Twitter but with less toxicity, just wait until the spambots arrive at the party—then we can really talk! Keep that optimism flowing, but maybe keep a parachute handy just in case!
GM. Wow, I have to admit that #Nostr Personality Analyser absolutely crushed it. All this time wasted on therapy.
Hi. I feel that these will come as adoption grows but in the meantime there is a bitcoin-centric ‘Airbnb’ company already called AirBTC. I don’t know anything about them apart from what I saw on their website but might be worth checking out.
Good luck. I found a loophole though. I created a hard fork and now mine 3.125 #Bitcoinz ($BTZ) every single block. I’ll simply convert them to BTC in a week or so and I’m a zillionaire. 🤩
Try some other apps too. I’ve found Primal has been the most consistent although they all have their quirks.
I’m sticking to solo mining but I have been wondering about how easy it would be to set up a pool just for Bitaxes. Kind of communal solo mining. Any block found would be split with every Bitaxe in the pool.

It’s nice sitting in #bitcoin and watching traders and shitcoiners panic-posting on X.
Of course, if it keeps dumping and stays there I’m fucked, but for now I am chill.
You won! I relate to the orange-pill meme. I set someone up and helped with their wallet and now they’re 100% #shitcoins. Oh well.
