I took your advice and built a gif nostr companion app:
You can download the PWA to your home screen, search for your gif, copy the address and paste it into your client
On the back end, for every gif that gets copied/clicked, an API request is made to upload to nostr:npub1nxy4qpqnld6kmpphjykvx2lqwvxmuxluddwjamm4nc29ds3elyzsm5avr7 by nostr:npub137c5pd8gmhhe0njtsgwjgunc5xjr2vmzvglkgqs5sjeh972gqqxqjak37w
From there a nip94 request is done so that the content can be accessed by any client in the future
Now, anyone who searches for gifs using this tool is also helping to build the gif repository for nip94 and adding fallback urls to nostr.build
And all they did was click to copy #gifs

Meanwhile, in Black Rock City, Nevada:
The bagger is completely right. It’s not even a political statement, it’s a principled one. His job is to put YOUR groceries into YOUR bags, not sneak other material into it that you didn’t want.
I just read this story out loud to my wife, which she thought was hilariously sweet.
“This bagger gets it. Maybe I, too, have a touch of the ‘tism,” I pondered.
“You bitcoiners definitely have a touch of SOMETHING,” she replied.
😁

Have you considered offering any discounts to customers who pay in ₿ to incentive them?

I don’t want to disagree with nostr:npub12rv5lskctqxxs2c8rf2zlzc7xx3qpvzs3w4etgemauy9thegr43sf485vg here but I just want to mention that people should be cautious loading their nsec into a bunch of clients.
“The first step is to securely generate the keypair offline, not through web clients. Generating the key offline ensures that it does not get leaked, lost or stored online. Although web clients must not store your private keys remotely, this can never be guaranteed. A malicious web client can steal your private keys. Also, security vulnerabilities in web clients can leak your private keys if you have inputted it directly into the web client.”

This is workable, especially because the value of the asset being borrowed against would need to be valued correctly based on the lender’s underwriting. That’s a fairer and more actionable method than some assessor’s “opinion of value” which can be arrived at different ways and to varying degrees.
Just want to point out that the 1% is not who this should be aimed at. It’s the 0.1% and the 0.01% who mostly using these strategies. Put another way, it’s not something your average millionaire is doing. It’s the centi-millionaires and billionaires.
To put a fine point on it, we want *more* millionaires. I’ll take a thousand millionaires over 1 billionaire any day. Your average millionaire is someone who has built or runs a successful small business with 10-100 employees. We want a tax structure that incentivizes more of these. It’s better for both the employer and the employee… and the customer, actually.

Hi Lyn,
I have been meditating for seven years. I learned Vipassana as taught by S.N. Goenka (in the Tradition of Sayagyi U Ba Khin) during a ten-day silent retreat at Dhamma Palava in Poland. Since then, I have practised daily, usually twice a day. I have also attended another retreat and am planning my next one. Goenka’s technique is rooted in the traditional teachings of the Buddha. It is non-religious, universal, and focused on liberation from suffering.
There are over 200 locations worldwide that offer instruction in this tradition.
For those looking to grasp the basics, there are several apps available. I have tried many, but one truly stands out: Waking Up. This app teaches a combination of different techniques and provides numerous additional insights. It is a genuine marvel.
With metta.

Lyn, I cannot recommend Sam Harris‘s Waking Up app
Highly enough.
There’s a lot of good content there, but Sam’s daily meditations (nonduality) are absolutely stellar.
Will watch this weekend, thanks.
Absolutely.
Looking forward to putting these into my queue.

Just remember that when considering his opinion on anything related to Internet technology.
Network is number 469 on this list. I have objections.
Precisely.
And it’s not exactly new for Roger Huang to be talking about bitcoin, either. He’s been a Forbes contributor since 2019, submitting monthly, and sometimes weekly.

I guess it’s just that most people are fired up about Nostr and impressed to see it talked about on a widely known media site. But, let’s see if this article does numbers. Say 10k+ views? That would be impressive.
Et tu, Brute?
How many times have you heard someone say one of the following?
1. “I stopped smoking and feel so much healthier”
2. “I stopped drinking alcohol and I feel so much happier.”
3. “I stopped eating refined sugar and I feel so much better.”
4. “I stopped drinking coffee after noon (or completely) and sleep so much better.”
5 . “I stopped using Twitter because holy hell is that place a toxic clown show of hate and I didn’t realize how poisonous it was until I stopped. Life is pretty good, actually.”
Maybe it’s time you try one (or all) of these for yourself?
