Cold hard life truth in a few seconds that anyone can appreciate.

I quiet-quit LinkedIn a few years ago. My next step will be to announce that I no longer engage there, and will post where folks can find me (Nostr, my websites, etc.). LinkedIn will do that for free for me.

I don't yet see why I need to delete my account, but maybe that will come to me later. On the other hand, I may continue to use such systems for more B2B engagement while not treating those systems as "the system".

I consider Twitter/X to be in the same category and am now moving my attention to #Nostr.

Someday, ideally sooner than later, #bitcoin will truly become recognizable money throughout the vast majority of the world.

This day is not today, but its coming is inevitable.

I have now pinpointed your location to be in the heart of redneck America ;-)

If a system can be gamed, then it shall be gamed.

GM, happy what is supposed to be a week off. “Fiat mines”, I’m going to steal that ;-)

I didn’t mean to take anything away from the substance, and just wanted to make it perfect for your next iteration.

I tried to give you 2 fucks but I have not yet figured out how to zap using the Primal web client and I'm not about to pull up my mobile app just to give 2 fucks. In the end, I couldn't give 2 fucks.

nice, thanks. my jade thanks you!

"The problem with subscription besides forgetting to cancel..."

Come on, if you can deal with Nostr you can figure out how to set a reminder for yourself to cancel. Still, I agree with the sentiment that it should be much more common to select 'do not auto-renew'.

"...is that it assumes you’re getting continuous value out of the product. When in reality you may want to use something here and there a few times when needed."

This is exactly the case for subscribing for just 1 month! I do this all the time and end up saving money over the long-term.

"One time with paid upgrades is better."

No, not for all scenarios as I mentioned. Spending less is better.

Imagine wishing the same for your electric bill. It would be prohibitively expensive.

The same applies for most customers of paid apps. Charging a reasonable subscription allows the app to reach a broader audience and establishes a sustainable path for the creator.

I am happy to pay a monthly fee so that I remain a customer and not a product. This is far more important IMO.

Whoops, looks like the time parameter wasn't included in the link I copied (or it was dropped)?

Oh Man, this is my first *real* week on Nostr and saw that video just today.

I was scared, especially after I heard a hint of Boston in there.

Peace, freedom, money, and time to pursue happiness with loved ones.

Takes more work than I'd like at the moment, although the Strike Billpay announcement/capability is a step forward. Still trying to extricate myself from my personal checking account...

This has inspired me to work on a new Nostr feature: negative zaps

Beautiful! Jack Mallers getting emotional... I'm not crying, you're crying!

I just sent to my father and others.
