In fact, I dare say I kinda like the crease (it's more of a divot than a crease) when scrolling nostr or websites. It's like a tiny bit of tactileness sorta like the bumps on your keyboard so you cam find home row without looking. I kinda like resting my finger right in the pocket the crease makes haha. It's sorta become a feature not a bug to me lol
No issues with cracking or dust. There is a crease and it's perceptible but you get used to it after a week or so and it doesn't bother me in the least. I don't really notice it is there most the time. Depending on what's on the screen, it's rarely noticeable visually, but you can feel the divot easily with your finger. But again, you get used to it and it's a nonfactor for me. I was worried about it as well when I first made the switch.
I have a flip and I love it.
I had a flip4 amd it started doing weird buggy stuff after abt 6 months so I do not recommend the older one.
Flip5 fixed all those issues and has been rock solid. I got the phone om pre-order so I've had it since it came out since Idk summer last year ish.
The screen is softer than normal glass screens and somewhat prone to scratching but the phone closes so it's less of an issue. I find the inside screen attracts dust slightly more than normal glass screens but its a nonissue. It also doesn't feel quite as nice as a normal glass screen and the resolution is not as good as a flagship but no complains here. In general the phone itself feels like a normal phone with last Gen specs but a current Gen price tag plus folding feature.
The form factor is amazing and not just a gimmic. First off, I love that it doesn't bilge out of my pocket and is easy to carrry around. I've used the folding function nearly daily for a better way to prop up the phone etc. Dual screens when taking photos is awesome and it's great for group shots as it can stand up on its own. Taking photos of things in weird angles is easy because you can hold the phone half open. The outside screen is perfect for checking notifications, opening 2fa apps, and whatever else without having to fully open my phone and get lost/distracted by everything else.
Also slapping the thing closed when im frustrated or getting off a call with some asshole has a satisfying sound. probably the best part.
Interesting how the Metallica and Moterhead tracks sounded very southern rock without the distortion!
Same to you! π€π½π€π½π€π½
I guess sometimes it's baby steps in the right direction. The further down a particular path you go the harder it is to leap across to another one. But small steps will eventually compound and add up. At least that's how I've been approaching it. I've been stuck behind a desk doing tax accounting for almost 2 decades. But over the past 5 years or so I've been slowly pivoting away with different initiatives. Some successes, many failures. But im starting to see the fruits of my labor. Slowly then suddenly as they say. It's a very slow grind since I need to keep my day job to support the family but in my spare time I do everything I can to build what I want to be doing instead.
Are you me? I feel the same way and im too far gone to pivot at this point in my life. I did basic, Vbasic, and C++ back in middle/high school and even got some AP compsci credits. Chose not to do programming because I (very incorrectly) thought if I did that I'd always be working for someone else...
Hrmm seems to make sense? Basically two sets of books... this is a very similar problem we are trying to get away from by using bitcoin in the first place. Under your assumption, Alby's books is allowing for both payments while LND is not.
Hey Alby Team.
I noticed a weird situation.
I have generate an alby account with balance A, and I have another OneKey account with balance B.
I generate an invoice of n sats by alby account. My friend with another alby account having balance C pay this invoice. and then i use OneKey pay for that invocie again. Both payment is successful, but my =alby account can only recieve first payment. and my final balance is alby : A+n, my friend: C-n, Onekey B-n.
So there is n sats just gone with the wind?

I'm no expert and this is a total guess but I would think at some point the funds will return onchain since only one payment can be made per invoice. Theres a signature handshake and so if that second pmt doesnt receive a confirmation back, it will eventually expire... maybe?
If true, in the wos instance, IDK what happens there since you don't hold the keys... I'm not sure the situation with one key. Would be interesting if you did it again but with a self custody lightning wallet. Maybe in a week those funds return onchain?
Yeah who's reading the recommended operating procedures on your butt sprayer anyways.
Fun fact... according to one of the product directors over at LG who manufactures these things... you're actually meant to wipe with TP first, then rinse, then pat dry with TP, then blow dry with the air function.
If you go straight from shit to rinse you'll risk flinging shit nuggets everywhere so a pre-wipe is recommended.
Van Wirdum's [The Genesis Book](https://amzn.to/3w2TPDS) was hard to put down--weaves the two threads of 'Austrian' economics and the cypherpunks into a nice origin story. Recommended.
Adding it to the list. Thanks!
Following both of you!
@ me when you do, I'd be very interested and appreciative!
I miss zapathon not because of the zaps (tho it was fun while it lasted) but I miss zapathon for the MEMES
nostr:npub1lhuex5pzy833ekxpvdmjz9k6rvv5763e4h2cgdfsx62egu0wk6hs7yd2ck and several of our members are starting to look into setting one up. Where would you suggest we start? We have the hardware and technical ability but a guide would be amazing!
Any pitfalls or difficulty in setting up to watch out for?
