Business idea: an all-water cocktail bar. You can choose from Fiji, Voss, Evian, and other premium water brands. Water can be served cold (optionally with snow), room temperature, or steamed. Steamed water enhances the water's flavors. Water is never infused - it's JUST WATER. There is a water tasting club where wealthy British men take turns taking sips of different kinds of water and going "I say!" There are water sommeliers who make a living specialized in tasting water.. but they can only find a job at The Water Bar. Actually, let's give it a French name: Bar à Eau. I think this could work.
I chilled water in a cocktail shaker and poured it into a chilled glass over a pure water ice cube. Oh my god... perfection. The ultimate cocktail.
Lightning Zaps on Nostr are of event kind 9735. This is a reference to the Lightning protocol, whose default port on nodes is TCP port 9735. This is itself a reference to the UNICODE LIGHTNING SYMBOL, which has an ID of 9735! Not the High Voltage emoji, the meteorological lightning symbol: ☇
Mostr bridge now supports setting a lightning bolt emoji ⚡ on your profile to enable zaps. Previously it was the text "lud16". That is now considered deprecated. The bolt supports both internet identifiers and LNURLs: https://gitlab.com/soapbox-pub/mostr/-/merge_requests/80/diffs
I considered it, but Nostr is necessary for the zap recipient to get a notification
Should I hack Nostr support into Pleroma just to enable zaps?
Fun fact, all tequila is mezcal but not all mezcal is tequila. You'd think its the other way around but it isn't.
I made a pomegranate mezcal cocktail
Open Source is the secret of my success. Every great opportunity I've ever had was the result of Open Source. I skipped all the job interviews. I contributed patches and they hired me on the spot. I built open source and they found me. Without it, I would be just a regular man with precious ideas. Ideas aren't precious, no matter how good they are. Even the best creations aren't precious on their own. You could die an unknown Shakespeare. OPPORTUNITIES are precious. Open Source maximizes opportunities. People are resistant to it because they're afraid. Their heads are full of doubts, of tropes like "how will artists make money?" For that reason, brave people are able to benefit from Open Source while fearful people don't. If you want to be a successful software person and you're not already a millionaire, I would highly recommend building Open Source software.
Hydrohomies rise up
Do you ever drink water and it tastes so fucking good, like you've been trapped in the desert for four days?
I'm a bartender/barista/software engineer. I made a lot of stuff for other people that I don't myself consume.
Espresso martini is very good, but it gives me a heart attack.
I made a coffee margarita because the YouTube man old me to. I can't say it was a good idea.
Fun fact, maraschino cherries are bleached, removing just about everything from them that makes them cherries except for the shape, and then re-dyed with red food coloring and sugar water. Literal candy in the corpse of a cherry.
Incredible. Thanks, makes sense
Been going back and forth on how I want to write JavaScript. And I'm enjoying writing static classes with all static methods because there's no naming clashes and you can reuse the interface. Kind of like Elixir modules.
