Well, I now have two "980's" in my PC!!! π π€£π
Seriously though, this new SSD drive is going to be sweet! π

That's one of the main reasons I still buy physical media: if there are charts and figures. It would be great if audiobooks described diagram better, but that's sadly rarely done well. I'm looking forward to your book Lyn!

I'm just going to post this cool chemical structure here because I can and doing so on other social apps might get me banned... π
My collection of Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) really saved my electronics last night! Crazy storm moved over us dropping 2 inches of rain in under two hours. Power flickered several times, but everything important (PC, nodes, TV, fishtank) was all on battery backup! πhttps://nostrcheck.me/media/public/nostrcheck.me_1705194392608841201690046141.webp
Plebster was a better on-boarding experience. I like Amethyst's UI a bit better.
I'm having fun doing some new analytical chemistry today! βοΈ It's great to be back in my lab! π§βπ¬

Swan says "Bitcoin is a religion".
I ask if that is a good idea.
Bitcoiners now seem reluctant to answer.
What are your thoughts?
I'm inclined to see lack of engagement as a confirmation of my suspicion that many Bitcoiners don't like the idea that bitcoin is a religion, or that normies think of bitcoin as a religion.
I see myself as a Bitcoiner newbie. And I'll state my view about this question later, in some more detail.

No, Bitcoin is not and should not be thought of as a religion. Bitcoin is for everyone regardless of religious beliefs and cultural values. It should never be thought of as belonging to any particular group or requiring any belief structures. This is for all.
4th of July BBQ party we were planning on going to was canceled because of rain. Good thing I have my own grill and fireworks π!

OK this is very cool. I just switched into Amethyst from Plebster. Just copy-paste my nsec key, and bam: new app, new interface and all of my content, friends, and followers are all here already instantly.
I GET IT NOW!!!
I used to mine BTC, but I haven't for a few years. Each time I think about getting back into mining I convince myself it's a bad idea. Been through that cycle three times now! π ππ€¦
I might give #Amethyst another try now that I've figured out nostr a bit more. Currently using #plebstr which for me was a better on-boarding experience.
