Nice! I’m at 98

Just gave someone from the other side of the world permission to update my WordPress website! Gave them some limited permissions, and took backups, but fingers crossed!!!

#business #ecommerce #wordpress #website

Crazy how each client has a cool feature that I miss when using other clients. They all have their uses.

But I don’t get tons of engagement either lol! Come on people even if you don’t zap them, give them a ❤️or something so we don’t think we are speaking to the wind

Some proof-of-work today mixing substrate bags with nostr:npub100rse6q23xxvfvlp05ye97shyexlrz8peqrtvrk4gsjw3dql26rqxu63y7 learning so much from him. Also good to get paid in hard assets!

It even says in the text if you read it, the reasoning is because it was non-consensual. Even if it is an iconic photo when you actually know the story behind it, you might agree it’s not so great to glorify.

The blockchain knows UTXOs and locks (locking scripts). An address ~= a public key.

When you sign a transaction with your hww you give your wallet a PSBT which contains the UTXOs you want to spend, and the UTXOs you want to create.

Something which does have a view of the network is what creates the PSBT, so it knows what UTXOs are yours.

Both the hww and the thing that makes the PSBT knows your public key (xpub) and using that info can determine 1. What UTXOs are yours, and 2. That it can sign for the UTXOs

You prove that you own it by signing for it

Hopefully that helps

This is a test of nostr.land relay postage

You could do it with pen and paper and complex math that nobody but 0.00001% of people understand.

or you can hire a computer to do the complex math for you using libraries which are well tested.

But if you use a computer connected to the internet, then you seed is no longer "cold"

So that is why we employ "hardware wallets", which are minimalist special purpose computers to do the math on a cold seed, and have the confidence that the seed hasnt accidentally "gotten hot".

Collected some scrub oak acorns back in September. I put them in a moist verm/coir mix about 6 months ago, and placed in the fridge. When I checked today they all had sprouted. Transferred them to individual solo cup pots for further growth!

Rate my node hardware setup:

This Celeron board from SeeedStudio.

DIY UPS using a lead-acid battery

64gb internal storage for the OS

2TB nvme m.2 SSD for blockchain, node, bitcoin stuff

NEW today: 256GB SATA m.2 SSD. I just mounted /var and /opt onto this drive so I don’t run out of room on my tiny OS drive

#bitcoin

So my paid relay didn't respond. And the porn relay rejected my note!

Help me daddy I am being censored!

Still playing around with relay. Got around to paying for the nostr.land relay.

Kind of frustrating, connected to 18 relays but most of my notes are visible on 2. test test test test

I only zap using Primal Website connected via Alby, and Alby has an integration with LNBits, which is then connected to my node.

My wife sent me a picture of our cat on a bed last night and I was wearing my AirPods and Siri told me “someone sent you a picture of a cat on a bed”.

SUPER CREEPY! I didn’t turn that AI on!!!

Tried some additional pictures and it didn’t read it out to me, but just putting that PSA out there.
