Missed the news, CalxyOS no longer supports the Pixel 3 and 4a

Along with GrapheneOS's woes, it's getting harder to have good private custom ROMs

I don’t remember when things went downhill, but it had to be when we starting cutting pizza with scissors

Nostr is not down, but I expect many relays are :)

These e-ink displays with open-source plugin capability seem awesome. Seem like you could put some great nostr and Bitcoin plugins

Would have loved to join, but flying back today -- give my best to all!

Hello to all you Plebs from Cape Town

Bitcoiners don't like debt, but we'd like the option to use Bitcoin one day as collateral for home loans. That's a positive change for bitcoin policy.

Bill Pulte, as the director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency can do it now with a stroke of the pen, amending the Fannie Mae selling guide to set the guidelines allowing citizens to use bitcoin as collateral.

Yes, I'm the shill making the case for letting people use bitcoin as collateral for home loans with one small public policy change

I just love random TV mentions of large bitcoin payments, this time on a popular French Canadian show about a private dective' firm in Montreal (Dumas)

Arrive in Cape Town on Monday!

Time to spend some sats and see the sights. First trip back since 2015. Ready for some loadshedding!
