My DCA strategy is working pretty well. I'm down to about $3.19 for a gallon of gas.

Crap, I thought the functionality was similar. With how many times I blocked, I think it had to make its way through the relays. Still not totally getting how relays communicate back and forth with events like that.

Same. I will never be an employee again. I missed most of 6 years with my son, and the money was absolutely not worth it. Live smaller. Be free.

Good enough for me. Ignorance is bliss.

Who the hell is this guy? I keep seeing it everywhere and I am way out of the loop. Probably for the best...

My zaps don't go through when I'm using Tor. nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm on desktop and nostr:npub1xnf02f60r9v0e5kty33a404dm79zr7z2eepyrk5gsq3m7pwvsz2sazlpr5/Alby on mobile. This makes sense to me in an abstract way because, well, it's Tor and not the usual connection. Is there a way to get full functionality, though? I'd like to use Tor so I'm connected to my private relay.

Today's new thing: Add SimpleX server to StartOS on my old laptop.

The Nostr private relay seems to work and hasn't exploded in my face. The laptop keeps running when I shut the lid. I now know how to get my Nostr clients using Tor on PC and Android/GOS. All very new stuff for me.

Learning has occurred.

My brain hurts. It's time for coffee and a cigar.

Last test, hopefully. Start9 private relay looks like it's up. Sending this note now from Amethyst using Orbot with my relay added. If anybody knows any pitfalls I may run into here, feel free to chime in.

Using Amethyst I blocked/reported for spam multiple times. It finally took.

Both of them hate you and everything you believe in. Why would you use a platform that hates you? I bailed on that dumb shit a long time ago, so I'm always confused that it's taking some exceedingly brilliant people so long to figure this out.

nostr:npub1unyzyaz6eq7kuff5sq73s4tea5n0srz969drq73mneck5qnqakuslzpkx2 even more reason to get this book and some kettlebells. I ordered it just for grins, and my wife keeps flagging me down to show me all the neat woman-oriented stuff. She was pretty glad to see the anti-crunch stuff.

I finally got it blocked. Ugh.

Today's new thing: I installed StartOS on an old laptop. It's an i3-3310 with 4GB RAM, so probably underpowered a bit. Downloading a Nostr relay now to see what it does.

Holy crap. I've never used WOS before, so I tried it myself. Yeah, pretty literally 10 seconds. That's powerful.

Just curious, how long did it take to get them set up?

I'd be down for some physical one-off art pieces with accompanying NFT. NFT by itself I'm just not interested in.

Yes. Out in the boonies 100 down, 15 up, 100ms ping. It gets a little sketchy in a bad rainstorm, but it's up most of the time.

For the #coffeechain I have nearly spilled coffee on my phone and floor.

Trying some of the Brazil dry process stuff I roasted yesterday. I think it needs another day to really wake up, but it is damn fine.

Today's new thing: moved a little BTC to #Blixt wallet.

I'm having a little trouble getting my head around private channels and that they may be refused, etc.

Also wondering how this compares to the coming #Zeus features.

Learning has occurred.

I'm guilty of not asking the question I actually wanted the answer to. My real question is this: Would a slightly-above-normie-level person be able to interpret and use the results to fix any vulnerabilities found, or is it better suited for someone with a lot of experience in that area?
