Hey davide,
Not a bad set-up at all, but just wanted to let you know you can run NWC directly off your CLN node with https://github.com/gudnuf/cln_nwc
Awesome thank you. Good project to add that to my nix-bitcoin setup
Speed is the main reason with my setup. In my case I have Coinos as the default wallet for nostr:npub18m76awca3y37hkvuneavuw6pjj4525fw90necxmadrvjg0sdy6qsngq955 ( via the zap.army workaround ) via NWC. Custodial but very fast. Small amounts only.
My Zeus connects to my core lighting node over TOR. Sovereign but not as fast, not ideal for zaps.
Plus I can quickly connect to the same NWC wallet from any nostr app that supports it if I want to. 😃

At the beginning of his recent chat with nostr:nprofile1qyxhwumn8ghj7mn0wvhxcmmvqywhwumn8ghj7mn0wd68yttsw43zuam9d3kx7unyv4ezumn9wsqzp382htsmu08k277ps40wqhnfm60st89h5pvjyutghq9cjasuh38q7t6dtc , nostr:nprofile1qythwumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytnxd46zuamf0ghxy6t6qy28wumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytn00p68ytnyv4mqqgzccaq65ccv9k3454480sws2wqepz73q5z0m5kckslhyhh6d533jc25xncl makes a distinction between negative rights and positive rights. Or between innate rights and entitlements.
I find this a very useful frame to potentially understand where people are coming from when the topic of the right to free speech / financial privacy / private property comes up, and they tell me that these rights are "not absolute", "subordinated to the common good", "granted by the state", or other similar misconceptions.
They may be failing to make the distinction between rights, that are innate and absolute, with social aspirations, that aren't.
Worth listening to the full chat: https://fountain.fm/episode/NYbpu1Q0VDbbK7E1gRTl.
My loose transcription of the relevant part:
The Soviet Union and the United States fought over the definition of "Human Rights" after World War II. [... ]
What we would call "negative rights", that America pushed forward, are things the State can't do to you -- freedom from censorship, freedom from torture, freedom from arbitrary arrest, freedom from censorship. These are innate things that people are born with. The ability to gather, the ability to believe, the ability to think, the ability to have private property, the ability to own your labor: these are things that you are innately born with.
And then the Soviet Union was advancing what are called "positive rights" which are entitlements.
[...] If you read the UN Declaration of Human Rights you'll notice that the first half is all negative rights or civil liberties and the second half is entitlements (right to work, right to vacation, right to house, etc.) and these are nice things but the idea that they should be human rights forces a situation where all of a sudden someone else is forced to work from you.
[...] I disagree with positive rights as rights, I view them as social aspirations.
Oooh long pressed and it worked like magic — thank you.
You asked for it. Here it is! How to enable Zaps in nostr:npub18m76awca3y37hkvuneavuw6pjj4525fw90necxmadrvjg0sdy6qsngq955 with nostr:npub1h2qfjpnxau9k7ja9qkf50043xfpfy8j5v60xsqryef64y44puwnq28w8ch https://v.nostr.build/XrvmScgeGRGSE2TC.mp4
Excellent, thank you, my wallet was already nostr:npub1h2qfjpnxau9k7ja9qkf50043xfpfy8j5v60xsqryef64y44puwnq28w8ch ( it’s great) and I’ve just set this up as per your video
It zapped the default amount without asking , is there a way to make it ask me if I want to zap a different amount?

maybe a UBox from chuwi fits your needs? Bonus: it supports ECC RAM
I have an older model of this and it has been working fine for four years
A Bitcoin node will detect bugs in the matrix
since I'm not seeing any serious memory or disk issues, and assuming there are no bugs in bitcoin-core, I wonder if my bitcoin node is getting hit by cosmic rays and bits are getting flipped every now and then, leading to leveldb checksum errors.
I looked into ECC ram but I may need to build a home server, since it's not common in desktops motherboards.
Is this is why you’ve been going on about ecc memory nostr:npub12262qa4uhw7u8gdwlgmntqtv7aye8vdcmvszkqwgs0zchel6mz7s6cgrkj ? I found a post about it from greg maxwell 10 years ago as well, saying all his non-laptop machines use ecc memory:

The Udoo Bolt Gear mini PC supports ECC RAM , that’s why I got one 3 years ago and it’s been running non stop ever since. Silent , powerful. Not super cheap but a reasonable price for what you get

nostr is a protocol, not a platform, and not an app.
The internet did not fail because TCP/IP clients don’t incorporate routers.
