“Nostr balance” found a better name.

“NUT SACK”

How will you call having too much money?

What fucking idiot tries their hand at pulling out in a super tight gap between two giant trucks both carrying massive tankers, and to do this at what appears to be a rather long, open section of highway out in the desert?… How many poor judgements can you combine into a single moment?

Also, I’ve watched this 20 times and still can’t even make out what the vehicle is that comes flying through at 100 mph.

I am getting close to giving a more detailed assessment on Israel/Hamas, as it drags on.

And it will probably be Nostr-only since other platforms can’t handle it. It is too polarized. Everyone is tunnel-visioned.

My husband is currently in Cairo dealing with some property work we are doing for our extended family. They are only 250 miles from the problem, and Egypt’s acute currency crisis brings it closer to home if military or refugee shit hits the fan. Most of my extended family is geopolitically or financially close to the Israel/Gaza issue and is Muslim. I am thus both close and far from the issue. And I grew up in the US in a diverse region with Jewish and Muslim peers, but more-so Jewish overall.

Suffice to say, I don’t want civilians on either side to suffer or die. I am pro-humanity first and foremost.

Before I give my eventual analysis, I am happy to see Nostr comments on the issue. What are your thoughts and questions on the topic? What would you like to see addressed from a diverse or as non-biased source as possible?

Sorry, I've waited long enough for your reply. The game must end now.

Welcome to a text based RPG GROUP GAME by #[0]. We have selected an escape room. Anyone can participate and affect the outcome but you MUST reply directly to each specific action message with only the action number itself. The first reply each round will decide what action is taken. A pool of 350 satoshis will be split among all that participate correctly if the game is won. Good luck! This game will time out in 6 minutes if no one responds. #games on #grownostr #bitcoin

Round 1:

The door slams shut behind you, sealing you inside the escape room. As the lights flicker and the power goes out, you find yourself trapped in darkness. The only source of light is a small flashlight on the floor. What do you do?

1. Pick up the flashlight and turn it on.

2. Feel around the room for any other sources of light.

3. Yell for help.

Wait for your choice. [1696785898]

Greenpeace is doing exactly what it should: advocate for the protection of the environment.

Concerns about POW are real concerns. As Bitcoiners and as fellow brothers in the quest for a better world, we need to respond appropriately.

Making fun and minimizing environmental risk is bad for our case. The argument we need to make is a reasonable one, and we need to be open to conversations with environmentalists.

1. POW incentivizes miners to find ever-cheaper sources of energy

2. The cheapest sources of energy are untapped options far from populations: off-shore winds and waves, tidal straights, solar, etc.

3. Electricity can only be transported about 200 miles, so most end-users must engage nearby power sources. This often prevents renewable energy from being an option for them.

4. Bitcoin mining is the one industry that can bring itself to the energy, rather than the other way around.

At some point, all miners will be using renewable energy because it’s the most economical to source energy that others cannot use.

5. The Bitcoin ecosystem undermines one of the most environmentally wasteful institutions in the world: the US military

6. The Bitcoin ecosystem prevents the transfer of wealth from people that have to eat, move, and work for that wealth, to people who employ exploitative institutions to extract rents. If people have to work 20% more to fulfill their needs, that comes with a 20% greater environmental burden.

We cannot expect others to appreciate our reason for POW if we do not try to understand their concerns as well.

We all should be environmentalists, and we should all be advocates for decentralized money.

I think I'll subscribe to that 🤔

It's not perfect, but I see what you did differently. I always type it in as "Nostr.com" and that's how it knows. Without ".com" it thought I meant Tor relay lol. Maybe try that and see how it does on GPT-3.x?

#[4]​ #[5]​ #[6]​ are super helpful

I believe that just bring up your system default bitcoin lightning wallet. You only need to worry about that if you want to send or receive “zaps”, which are bitcoin micropayments.

Hey #[3]​ , another question. I’m a non-crypto person (but I am crypto-curious).

What does “local storage” mean?

As a reminder I am non-technical and kind of dumb. Please ELI5.
