Forgive me, Nostr, for I have sinned! 😂 😆
I only did it to try to get a quick response to see if I needed to tweak anything to get it to work. 😜
I returned your sats in case someone else needs help testing their set up or something. Greatly appreciate ya for the help!! 🤘
Awesome!!!! 👏 Thank you so much for lending me a hand in testing!!! 🙏
This is an LND instance running on LAN, but accessible via a domain by using a CloudFlare Zero Trust Tunnel to avoid exposing IP of where the machine really is. 😎 Next step for me is to see if I can route it over its tor address via cleaner wallets. I don’t know how that works. #Bitcoin #Lightning #NodeRunner #HackingAwayAtBitcoin #LearningBitcoinHandsOn
It worked!! I don’t know who sent the test amount of 21 twice or if it was from X or here, but thank you for verifying it worked!!!! So cool 😎 Can’t believe my node just received payment from a random stranger on the internet. I freakin’ love Bitcoin & Lightning!!!! And thanks again to whomever sent the test TXs!!!!!! 🤘
Hilarious! 😂

Could someone please try this lnURLpay at so I can see if I set it up correctly? I’m not sure if it will route over the internet correctly and for all wallets.
Thank you!! 🙏 🙏 🙏
Warren Buffet Apes Into Bitcoin?
Do you think the majority of people even know interest has to be paid on the money the government creates?
Guess if they don’t know that, they also don’t understand that there is no way to ever pay it off because more is owed than has been created at all times.
US Gov is playing a game of musical chairs that they are inevitably going to lose. 🤔
This sounds amazing! Nostr can grow into so many things given the developers to do it.
What does one do if they can’t help but to look at no-coiners as “complete fucking idiots?” Asking for a friend.
The new Road House movie is awesome. Really enjoyed it.
So excited to be off of 100 meg and on 2 gig. Sick of maxing out that 100 meg pipe all the time with a large household that lives on electronics. 
What a farce and ponzi scheme. #BitcoinFixesThis
LOL! PRICEOFBITCOIN IS COVERED WITH A SCROLL ARROW. Sorry! Price of Bitcoin would have to be $1,475,577,687 per coin.
Was playing around with #chatgpt4 and ran this thought experiment:
I was trying to see what price satoshis (and bitcoin) would have to be at in order to sustain the median yearly income in the US across the entire planet of 7.9 billion people. (crap, already realized I didn't account for possibly lost coins!!) but anyway... it was a fun thought experiment to do and let ChatGPT do all of the heavy lifting for me. I just kept feeding it variables and my ideas, having it look up stats on bing and set them equal to variables. It was really cool!
I had never used variables in ChatGPT before today, so that's an exciting advancement on my own part. LOL! Anyway, enjoy the nice table GPT4 put together for me!

Okay! I have Docker and Polar running and updated.
Now to figure out what projects I want to work on with an entire test bed Bitcoin network. Would be kind of cool to run Elements for Liquid alongside Lightning and Bitcoin via Polar. Having direct control over the mining and not having to wait on mining or take all the time setting up all the individual nodes to test theories is awesome and, no pun intended, lightning fast! 👏 ⚡️
What should I learn next?! I’d like to get a job in lightning engineering or dev, but either I’m suffering from imposter syndrome, or I’m just really not sure where I’d fit in when I read job descriptions. I’d have to work remotely. Having to go into IRL meetings and/or sit at a desk all day or commute for hours -isn’t for me. 🤷♂️
Getting there, slowly! MUCH faster than the SSD server I currently run my node on. Decided to check out #Start9's #StartOS for my second bitcoin+lightning node.

I actually haven't tried using loop or pool, yet. More things I want to look into once I'm satisfied that my nodes are up and running without hiccups or chance of losing funds. With the horrible iowait times I'm having with an HDD, I'm scared to do much. Just spun up a VM of Start9os and syncing a new node now. Maybe I'll play with loop and pool once it's up and running on my better server hardware. :)
At the moment, I need to figure out how to rebalance my channels, because my ACINQ channel is pretty much receive-only right now less about 18k sats.
I also have one smaller channel that I opened and it isn't being utilized during payments, so I may close that channel and open a new one with a better node. I believe it's the 1ml alpha node - it has good connectivity, but it never routes payments for some reason. Bitstamp and ACINQ seem to be working perfectly, though. Sent almost $1000USD in a lightning payment with no issues whatsoever using those two channels.
Node #2 syncing on my LAN? I think YES. :D 
If you don’t like how Bitcoin works, you can just fork off! 😉
