Bitcoin and Nostr only, everything else is ...... just fine

God damn it, an entire generation pumping gas, waiting tables; slaves with white collars.

Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy shit we don't need.

We're the middle children of history, man. No purpose or place.

We have no Great War. No Great Depression. Our Great War's a spiritual war... our Great Depression is our lives.

We've all been raised on television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars.

But we won't. And we're slowly learning that fact.

And we're very, very pissed off

Daydream, I fell asleep amid the flowers

For a couple of hours on a beautiful day

Daydream, I dreamed of you amid the flowers

For a couple of hours, such a beautiful day!

I'm broke, but I'm happy

I'm poor, but I'm kind

I'm short, but I'm healthy, yeah

I'm high, but I'm grounded

I'm sane, but I'm overwhelmed

I'm lost, but I'm hopeful, baby

And what it all comes down to

Is that everything's gonna be fine, fine, fine

You can say what you want about this guy, and I don't always agree with him today either. But this is an interview from 2000, at least nine years before the Genesis block. He has vision and conviction, you can say that, even now. We were in the dotcom bubble back then

To the centre of the city where all roads meet Waiting for you

To the depths of the ocean where all hopes sank Searching for you

I was moving through the silence without motion Waiting for you

In a room with a window in the corner

I found truth

Do you have to set up something for that in your node, or does that happen automatically? Do you have a good article on that?

If you send (or receive) a Lightning payment that is greater than your send (or receive) limit of 1 channel, is/can that payment be split across multiple channels? And does this also count for all nodes in between? #asknostr

Oh man, I love V-shaped recoveries

gm, strange times, again 😒

Catching up on the #OP_RETURN change the #bitcoin core devs seem to want to shove down on our nodes.

Easy answer seems to be a switch to #knots by nostr:nprofile1qqs0m40g76hqmwqhhc9hrk3qfxxpsp5k3k9xgk24nsjf7v305u6xffcppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp00qjrgs.

An even easier solution would be if Luke or someone else with a reputation would just fork the Core github to remove the changes affecting OP_RETURN like he already successfully did with the UASF fork that give us segwit.

My only questions are:

1) can I keep running my Lnd node without loosing my channels

2) Can I keep the same blockchain data without having to resync all of it from scratch

3) Does Electrs run with #knots

Seems feasible and I'm willing to try it out.

Any guidance would be highly appreciated 🐸

I switched to Knots last weekend.

1) My Lightning node still works perfectly with all channels; other than pointing it to Knots, I didn’t have to do anything.

2) I re-synced the whole chain. I did see an article explaining how you can reuse the existing chain, but I didn’t try that – although it should be possible.

3) Yes, Electrs works with Knots

I synced the blockchain from scratch while my Core node was still running. Then I stopped Core and had my apps point to Knots. Easy to do on Umbrel: just change the node setting inside each app.

Weird. With the web app i can log in through Alby. Can't you log in with Amber on phone?

It worked like a charm. No problem with Lightning indeed. Thanks!

Running Knots...

Ok, thanks for your reply, I'll take a look at it all and make my decision soon. Strange times again
