Trying to get good at online lessons so I can eventually have a full day of them to be able to go see places. Stacking sats is my number 2 priority, after family, until the halving, but I do need to get out of the city more often to keep the soul healthy.
Using an AKG Lyra here for a simple setup.
Any musicians on #nostr who wanna connect?

Don’t they ask for 3 btc for citizenship 😮
That’s inspiring. I can see how that event would trigger something in your brain. Just a gut feeling about accounting? I’m torn between engineering and programming.
I'm wondering if adding a reaction to a post could autozap a customisable amount. 🤔
Reactions are good as they convey meaning, zaps are good as they convey value.
reaction + zap = rezaption
How about it nostr:npub1gcxzte5zlkncx26j68ez60fzkvtkm9e0vrwdcvsjakxf9mu9qewqlfnj5z?
nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s, you probably have enough on your plate now. 😂 Or maybe this is a way out for nostr:npub18m76awca3y37hkvuneavuw6pjj4525fw90necxmadrvjg0sdy6qsngq955? Damus users can like a post and the app auto tips a profile a set amount in an entirely unrelated action. 👀

#notonlyzaps
I like this idea. Not urgent but definitely something to keep in mind. The connection of value and meaning is interesting too. Every user could decide how much their reactions are worth to them.
Right on. Thanks for taking the time to share.
Are you looking to switch to Android for the very first time? I'm here to help. Just ask!
Over the years, I've been heavily embedded in the Android ecosystem. I purchased the HTC Droid Incredible in 2010 and never looked back. Since then, I've owned phones from HTC, Motorola, and Google, always using phones that allowed me to run custom ROMs or a stock Android or stock Google experience. I've compiled my own Android OS from source using AOSP and I've compiled and ran my own kernels. I'm also a former Android blogger, writing dozens of reviews of phones, tablets, watches, apps, and other services surrounding Android. I've traveled the world, attending various smartphone launches, attended conference, and Android meetups.
Before we get started, I'd like to say that Apple's current situations with Damus or Zeus is nothing new. Apple does this every year or so and is always involved in these sorts of scenarios with apps, banning and censoring them. Apple is one of the richest companies in the world. You can fight them all you want, but in the end, they always win. Look at the battle that Epic Games had with Apple over Fortnite as an example.
So, you've decided to give Android a try, but don't know where to start or you've heard bad things over the years and you're not sure about making the switch? Switching ecosystems is incredibly hard and a daunting task. I will not sugar coat that. I would not want to do it and I would not look forward to it. However, I hope this makes it easier for you.
**Buy a Google Pixel.**
Not all Android phones are equal. Not all Android phones are completely open. Not all Android phones have unlockable bootloaders. If you go the Pixel route, you'll have the most open phone with the most options available to you.
If you want to run a custom ROM such as Graphene OS, a Google Pixel phone will give you the best options. Graphene OS allows you to run a "De-Googled" phone. You can read more about Graphene here: https://grapheneos.org
Every Android phone allows you to install a third party app store. Every Android phone allows you to install apps that do not come from Google Play. This is by design. You do not need to do anything overly special to just install an app from Github or F-Droid, etc.
What's F-Droid? F-Droid is a FOSS (Free and Open Source Software) app store. You can check it out here: https://f-droid.org
Where should you get a Google Pixel phone? If you're looking to buy a new phone, I'd recommend buying directly from Google as you'll get the best support. I've had to return devices over the years and the times I've had to do so, it's been incredibly easy.
If you you're on a budget or don't want to buy a brand new phone, I highly recommend that you use Swappa. I've met the owner and many of the developers. They are great people. Any time I'e sold a used phone or purchased a used phone, I've only used Swappa. https://swappa.com
Which Pixel phone should you get? Well, that's up to you. The latest version is the Pixel 7 line. This includes Pixel 7a, Pixel 7, and Pixel 7 Pro. The "a" line is the cheaper or budge line that doesn't have all of the bells and whistles that the other ones have. It's similar to the "SE" line with iPhone. Normally, the "a" line is the best bang for your buck phone. My kids always get the "a" line. The "Pro" version, just like iPhone would be your Pixel with the largest screen, largest battery, and has extra camera zooming features. I always buy the "Pro" version. My wife normally gets he standard version, but this year, she wanted the "Pro" version because she was jealous of my 30X zoom.
I'm going to run an "office hours" Nostr Nest today at https://nostrnests.com/android to help answer you Android questions. If you have them, come ask. If you want to help people make the switch, feel free to join and join the conversation.
What would be the cheapest pixel phone that is viable for degoogling?
Wow, that sounds like a trip. What brought your decision about? Physical strain, options?
Actually sounds like a great idea.
Randall Carlson, John Anthony West and Graham Hancock if you enjoy a nice excursion down the river of history…they talk about cataclysmic events and the potential age of the pyramids being a lot older than we’re being told. Good points made on rain erosion on the sphinx enclosure when at the time it is dated there hadn’t been any rain to create such erosion.
Ever went through a hole workout and still felt half asleep after?
My body is riddled with injuries and for some time I thought it’s gonna stay that way. I’m a young man still but doctors told me it couldn’t be fixed and suggested all sorts of pain killers and surgeries which I denied. In the past two years I’ve been slowly crawling back to health. My wrists, elbows, shoulder, neck and back couldn’t move the way they are supposed to move and I’m still struggling doing basic exercises like pushups due to these injuries but it’s been a steady progress and the floodgates are open now. So even though today was a weak workout, it’s ok. I’d rather have a bad workout than no workout at all. Nostr shows me daily that social media can be a positive thing.
Once you believe you can achieve!

That sounds lovely. Have you been doing something related to that type of work or just diving in?
I’ve made mostly bad decisions but a few key ones I got right. Feels odd to be nearing thirty and considering a complete 180 in terms of career. So much changed and the entertainment industry is eating my soul. Whatever it produces is unhealthy and I don’t want to be part of feeding the next generations this poison.
Any of you started a career at thirty or later? I’d love to hear from this community.

Famous last words to a game of hide and seek.
Come on…if this wasn’t pre halving id chuck this phone and go graphene OS right away.
Stacking sats like mad man and looking to save on small stuff? Try spaghetti with German sausage fried in a pan and tomato sauce. Haters gonna hate but it’s tasty and cheap.

Anyone else see the connection between sacrifices from the Bible to Bitcoin mining?
We take something from the physical world and burn it up, dedicate it to an idea that is in heaven. Keeping in mind the ancient world view of earth being everything that is matter and heaven being everything that is concept and idea.
Let me know what y’all think!
