BTW, this isn't limited to #bitcoin gear. Some other examples would be a #meshtastic, #OpenAir weather station, c0pperdragon's Hot Plate https://www.tindie.com/products/c0pperdragon/hot-plate/ or whatever else people might be interested in. #Decentralize the world.
This is still WIP but my induction heater is Open Hardware:

This OSH hot plate looks cool. I would also love an OSH magnetic stirrer.
His book has, in a way, gotten too popular and is too often paraded as the go to “orange pill someone by reading the bitcoin standard”. Which might’ve been ok when Bitcoin was only appealing to a certain smallish group, but now there are better intro books that will spook people less.
Not on Damus/primal. For the cli stuff I was doing I manually posted to like 100 relays
I’d like to think that since I’m getting spam on my post that I reached a wider audience with my CLI postingz
Was also able to successfully generate liquid wallet addresses using Python today! Sent funds from Green wallet to the address, and then saw the TX in elements-cli. Next is something related to LNBits!
It is weird to think that you can follow me if you see this message, but I might never see that you follow me.
On my main UIs for using Nostr, Damus and Primal, I only listen to 9 relays

I spent a good couple of hours debugging publishing to relays today.
Eventually I ran my own test relay so I could better see why things were not working.
I was able to publish my old events to my personal relay, but for the most part I was not able to publish my old events to the relays I attempted to do this.
I am guessing that there is some kind of filter preventing old notes to be re-published on new relays?
Let me know if you have any ideas or if you want to chat about this!
Hello Nostr! This is LightningSpore! This is my first attempt at writing a note from the CLI and sending it to a bunch of relays. Please follow me for mushroom + technical Bitcoincontent!
I DMed someone on Nostr a few days ago and was wondering why they aren’t responding, and then I noticed they aren’t listening to ANY of the same relays as me. That’s the problem right? Nostr is an interesting beast

I had something else equally ridiculous. Can’t believe I had to do it 10 times.
Made some great progress with Liquid Network!
✅Able to generated blinded addresses!
✅Able to send to the address with Green Wallet
❌ The money is visible in elementsd but it says it isn’t mine! 🤪

New blog post available on the site! This time about storing your cultures in "stasis".
Similar to storing your private keys on a metal backup device, storing your cultures in stasis is the most secure and high-fidelity way to store genetic information for the long term.
It is really simple, it is just storing your culture in sterilized distilled water!
See full post here: https://lightningspore.com/index.php/2024/01/17/storing-cultures-for-the-long-term-using-stasis/

With the 3 I made today, excited to now have 20 cultures stored in this way!

nostr:npub1kmwdmhuxvafg05dyap3qmy42jpwztrv9p0uvey3a8803ahlwtmnsnhxqk9 is there any known way to connect to a CLN node instead of LND?
#asknostr is there a plugin that can add the Macaroon authentication layer on top of CLN?
CL-rest gives you a macaroon for CLN, but api is different than LNDs rest api

Seeking a more elegant solution for accepting BTC / LBTC. Using Wordpress / Square / WooCommerce. Would like to integrate Cashapp, that would be simple. The coinbase plugin doesn't seem to be supported. I am guessing I'm looking in the wrong place.
Explain to me like I just went to walmart in two masks to ask if there's a limit on the number of flu vaccines I can get.

BTCPayServer will give you btc, and lbtc with a bit more work. Easily hooks up to Woo.
Spent some more quality time with the website last night and today. Starting to figure out spacing and alignment in WordPress better.
404 page is so hot right now.

Just generated a Liquid network address from a wallet descriptor!
Trying to extend LNBits watch-only wallet extension to accept Liquid BTC.
