I run monthly supper clubs with my wife. We accept Bitcoin as payment. Come join us www.henryherbert.co.uk

Have been having a go with Jam on nostr:npub126ntw5mnermmj0znhjhgdk8lh2af72sm8qfzq48umdlnhaj9kuns3le9ll seems pretty straight forward. How long (on average) should I leave the sats in the “earn” jar to get the privacy gains? Any advice would be great. Thank you

Just installed nostr:npub1yfg0d955c2jrj2080ew7pa4xrtj7x7s7umt28wh0zurwmxgpyj9shwv6vg nice to hear some new music and discover artists. I can’t work out how to link to a blue tooth speaker though? Is that just me or is it not obvious?

Assuming that’s to buy more Bitcoin. As long as you can make the loan repayments and you won’t need another loan in the next few years.

Had a long conversation with my wife about this this morning.

X has been a life suck for me recently. So, I’m deleting it off my phone. I’ve felt the need to be connected to it to get out more diverse content and messaging around Bitcoin. But it’s severely impacting my mental health.

My next step is to delete my personal X account and take a step back from engaging with the community there. We’ll still have nostr:npub1fpcd25q2zg09rp65fglxuhp0acws5qlphpg88un7mdcskygdvgyqfv4sld account everywhere. I used to tell myself it’s letting Elon’s echo-chamber win if I take a step back, that I want people to see a different perspective with my account being visible there. But none of it fucking matters, nor is worth the negative impact it’s having on my mental health. It’s gotten pretty bad recently.

Thankfully nostr, whether it’s size, lack of rage algorithm, etc doesn’t make me feel that way at all. And also, I’ll have more time and attention to devote to real interactions, working on a nonprofit idea for bitcoin publishing, expanding more pods and supporting projects/communities with nostr:npub18jgxqshg38cgzcv43zvqhnc7hjn223psy2kkmkpqt2azd9thyy4sxjc5gt and more.

I came to the same conclusion yesterday. I’m on holiday with the fam and we try and not use our phones to much and be present in the holiday/company. I kept getting drawn back to twitter and doom scrolling. I decided to delete the app and have a break. So instead of complete cold turkey, I thought why not give Nostr another go and so far it’s been way more engaging and positive, also after a few mins I’m board and not dragged into all the mire of twitter. So all good.

I’m on your side.

Have a good day 😎

One of my brothers just sent me a video of someone comparing their shopping bill from 2021 and if they bought in 2024. It was a significant increase. He just sent me a note under saying “…….=Bitcoin”

Hopefully this is another step for him grasping that while we are in the fiat world we will continue to be stollen from. Until we start holding some (or all 🤪) of our wealth in Bitcoin we will continue to see our wealth be diluted like the video he shared with me.

He is so close now! I just need to be patient and remember how it was for me starting on this journey and all the touch points along the way that lead me to Bitcoin.

People are stating to realise and when they do it will be like a snowball growing and gaining momentum. I just hope and pray that my family will get it sooner rather than later.

So I understand that on Nostr you can’t be censored or removed. That’s good. But in the UK people have been arrested and convicted for saying things the state doesn’t like “hate speech”. If you identity is known on your nostr account. I know they can’t take it down but they could still come to your door and arrest you. Have I got that right?

Not a bad view for the next 7days.

Sorry just seen your reply. Need to spend more time on nostr!

Thanks for the Yes.

Also very please rabbit hole is still going.

Just deleted twitter (again🤦🏻‍♂️) it’s become a doom scroll and minimal signal.

Like wise. Need to spend more time on it. Getting there

I have a few spaces left for my July 26th Feast. Really excited about this menu. Think the crab beignet is going to be 😝. Also you can pay in #bitcoin
