I'm a photographer/filmmaker/theatre artist based out of Anchorage, Alaska. Timezone GMT-9

So, I couldn't get umbrel to work, but I did get a nostr-rs-relay going using an Ubuntu install. It's messy, and I know there has to be an easier way, but proof of concept wise it's technically possible to run a relay on your phone.

I think I may have gotten it. Using this reply to see if it gets written to the relay...

No, but it's theoretically possible with a ubuntu virtual machine. I know a few people have gotten it working to run the full bitcoin node with a large sd card.

I think I'm going to have to test this now ☺️

Rex, man. Of all the nostriches here, you’re one who has made me dig deep and think a LOT about people, politics, nuance, etc.

Sometimes the stuff you share is loving, wise, and compassionate, and I appreciate you for it.

Other times (like this one) I’m afraid it comes across as cruel and ignorant. And it’s hard, but also kind of amazing to have a digital space where one can organically appreciate that kind of complexity without algorithms and all that.

I’ve never had the experience of feeling like I’m in the wrong physical body. I can’t imagine how difficult, distracting, and complicated it must feel. But the fact that so many in our society refuse to even try to offer compassion or acceptance toward people living such a unique and often hard experience is discouraging to me. Because I love people, and seeing suffering makes me sad. It’s why I Bitcoin.

It’s of course true that tiny, extreme factions can and do act horribly, on any end of the cultural/political spectrum. And I’m not here to make excuses for anyone’s bad behavior. (It’s obvious when it occurs, ‘nuff said).

But if we get hooked by that divisive culture war rhetoric, then we’re failing - in that moment - to bring about a better world.

When a minority of people in our culture have overwhelmingly been the recipients of scorn, abuse, and violence, it feels wrong to me to take any approach other than listening. Because I just don’t know what it’s like, but keeping an open heart has never failed me before.

I didn’t read this thread in detail, but my sense is that it got pretty hostile. For my own well-being, I’m not going down that rabbit hole (and I still have to go get ready for a trip).

But since it’s nostr, where I have gotten to know the two humans having this conversation, I’m not just scrolling on. I respect you enough to say, I believe you’re a good person but I think you’re wrong about this, because if we haven’t lived it, we can’t know. I hope you’ll consider that.

Again, culture war BS is just not something I’m interested in. Red blue white black rainbow whatever, I’m in this for all the other humans and want to listen to and honor anyone willing to share their experience of this life.

Okay that’s all I got for now. Hope this note ultimately acts to bring a little more love to every side of the scale ✌️

This is why I'm on nostr. Anywhere else this would be a seething pile of vitrol and trolling. Here we can talk. Not everybody agrees but we can have actual discourse without algo baiting bullshit.

It's one of the main reason I generally stick to Amethyst. Damus had it through nostr.wine but it wasn't as easy to setup and I was always worried I'd run out of words.

I got the Phanteks (PH-F120T30_BG) T30-120. For the minor and the Noctua NF-A6x25 FLX, Premium Quiet Fan, 3-Pin (60mm, Brown) for the power supply. Sooooo much quieter. Running now at full (cause it’s fuuuucking cold) and still no louder than my regular heater.

It's -20(f), thank goodness I have this awesome underdesk heater. Time to crank it back up to 1200w.
