Did you know that ⚡️Lightning Network specifications are called BOLTs while 🥜Cashu Protocol specifications are called NUTs?

I just paid for lunch with #Cashu at a restaurant in Prague and it was amazing!

All I needed was the eNuts - Nutshell - LNbits - LND - Confirmo - Qerko stack 😅

Why Do Old Books Smell So Good?

TL;DR:

An almond scent comes from benzaldehyde in the paper. Vanillin, the main compound in vanilla, is responsible for a sweet vanilla fragrance. Ethylbenzene, used in inks and paints, has a sweet plastic smell. 2-Ethyl hexanol, found in solvents and scents, smells lightly floral.

Pi 3 can run 64-bit too

No. You want to check the whole string. Always.

So what is the current consensus to split long bitcoin addresses for visual verification?

Chunks of 4 characters separated with spaces?

Another day, another reason to say GFY to PayPal!

PayPal has locked the #GrapheneOS account with nearly $4000 worth of donations.

Let's rally together and match the frozen amount with direct donations to their hardware wallet: https://grapheneos.org/donate

Why is everyone suddenly talking about the X Window System today?

🙅‍♂️

I ordered 4 items from an e-shop, and they registered 4 separate packages with the shipping company. However, they later realized one of the items was out of stock and issued a refund for it. Interestingly, since they'd already registered 4 packages, they went ahead and shipped 4 packages...one of which was completely EMPTY! The icing on the cake? The empty package was labeled as "FRAGILE!!! Handle with care." 😂

Not entirely correct, but I guess I'll take it!

Thanks, LLaMa-2!

Quite often, the following scenario would occur (I know because I've been guilty of doing the same):

You start to write an eloquent response explaining why the tweet you're reacting to is wrong, but suddenly you hit the character limit. You spend a few minutes trying to rephrase your thoughts to fit within the limit, but now your message doesn't make any sense. Frustrated, you delete everything and just post "You are wrong" or "Screw you" instead.

Do you have any indication that factors other than the character limit might be responsible for the poor quality of discussions on Twitter?
