Brand is called Allet. I came across them after a long search for a thin, minimalist

wallet that still has a place to carry cash.

I haven't tried overly hard to convert farmers to Bitcoin, but I have planted seeds in several conversations. I'm a believer that you can't force someone to open their mind to Bitcoin, they have to come when they are ready.

What I have done is sold to beef to Bitcoiners (and accepted Bitcoin as payment). There are many people that did not grow up in a rural area and are just not aware that you can purchase beef directly from a farmer and bypass all the food conglomerate middlemen. Texas Slim is doing good work on that movement with The Beef Initiative.

Cool, where in Missouri is that?

Today's project.

Installing a septic system.

I really don't know. Dm me your location, and I'll see how much to cover shipping. Just make me an offer on the antlers themselves.

Pullets are growing.

It seems one of them laid their first egg today.

Sorry it took a few days, these were scattered around a few different properties. Here's what I rounded up.

There are two general types. The more standard kind is very easy to strike and throws a shower of sparks about a quarter to half inch from the rod.

Then there's a softer type that's sometimes called misch metal, and it throws off fairly large globs of red hot metal that can travel a couple feet before they burn out. But they require a sharper striker and more force to work well.

Which is better really depends on your technique. Regular ferro rods are more controllable so likely preferable for a beginner. Misch metal is a bit more difficult to strike and requires a little more practice to aim where the fire is going.

Hate losing flashlights. I lost mine for about two months. Found it again in my buddy's side by side, it was one that had a piece of netting instead of a door, and the netting caught the clip and stripped the light right out of my pocket. And there it hung until the next time I was over there.

I should have a few laying around somewhere. Let me look.

Alright Nostr, let's have a discussion about the current state of the lightning network.

My question is this: What is the threshold that you are comfortable transacting over the lightning network?

In other words, at what dollar amount do you say no to lightning and transact on-chain instead?

I send zaps and other micro-payments on a daily basis and everything works great. I'm perfectly confident using lightning for daily, mundane amounts, but how much is too much? If I sell someone a side of beef and need to accept payment over $1000 in value, does lightning have the necessary liquidity for that transaction, or should that amount be sent on-chain despite the high fees?

I'd especially like to hear from those who run their own lightning node and other vendors who use lightning for point of sale.

Agreed. Listened to it this afternoon. Basically a 4 1/2 hour crash course that could take someone from NPC to switched on.

Had some spare time this afternoon for a short ruck through the woods.

Spent the holiday weekend 95% offline, and it was glorious. Church on Sunday and Decoration at the cemetery, then had family and some friends at our pond for some fishing and outdoor cooking.

Then two busy days to get things done in this short week, so minimal down time for Nostr.

Remember, sometimes it's healthy to stop scrolling and just go play outside.

Stayed home from work today to get stuff done. Moved cows, mowed yard, mowed/cleared trails around pond,

Finished the bridge project from a few days ago

Getting ready for some fishing and outdoor cooking on Memorial Day.

Yep, pretty typical.
