I'm a geek dev'ing on the ops at LTN Global. Former Puppet employee & current community member.

YO nostr:npub1cn4t4cd78nm900qc2hhqte5aa8c9njm6qkfzw95tszufwcwtcnsq7g3vle and nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm I am working with an oprhanage in El Salvador called "The House of Life" - they help pregnant girls who have been sex trafficked and abandoned by their families deliver healthy babies and get back on their feet and live meaningful, productive lives.

Rayn Matta did a documentary called "Operation Amber Alert" and the last 20 minutes focuses on the orphanage.

I am moderating a panel with Bob McDonnel and Ryan in Vegas at the conference to share their story.

They are all Bitcoiners 🧡

One of the goals is to help the girls understand financial literacy (John and Reyna at Mi Primer Bitcoin will help get the diploma going there)

2nd is job and life skills (We will have volunteer vacations for Bitcoiners to support the girls with education and skill dev)

3rd is of course saving in Bitcoin

That's where Strike and Alby come in - is it possible to get something set up for them so the founder- Bob is the guardian and the girls can start to earn and spend in sats safely?

Thanks and Big LOVE 💜

(no sarcasm, honest question) Why do they need a guardian for their bitcoin/sats? Why not teach self custody?

I have found this analogy between a yardstick and #Scouting to be very true. Take 3 minutes and have a watch - it’s thought provoking even if not a Scout.

Truth within #comedy is pretty grand.

I really appreciate hearing other’s take on the #BitBox that I saw nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm mention the other day.

We went to see the Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey #circus last night… it was so disappointing. It had no storyline and didn’t hold a candle to before the 2017 hiatus. There was too much downtime and no continuity.

I’ve been trying out the #Fold debit card and am kinda liking getting #sats for the things I’m buying anyhow. Check it out for yourself and get 20,000 sats for free at the same time by using my referral link. #bitcoin

It seems there is a very important #security update for all #Apple devices (computers, phones, & tablets) - I suggest you update them all as soon as you have time.

Testing out posting with #Openvibe to #Mastodon, #Threads, #Bluesky, & #Nostr simultaneously. To test better, here’s what we worked on at our #CubScout den meeting last night:

Noted! nostr:npub1mwsk3ly4lk7efdqqjm62dkc699kqapwyyvdley3xljjm0lxruh9qzvu46p nostr:npub177fz5zkm87jdmf0we2nz7mm7uc2e7l64uzqrv6rvdrsg8qkrg7yqx0aaq7 . "Hide payments below 1000 sats" would make sense?

We're gonna do something about it, for now perhaps it's better If you turn them off in settings

That would work, but better would be a separate setting for send and receive and the ability to set the number myself.

Alby Go 1.9 is here 👩‍🚀

What's new?👇

🔔 Real-time push notifications of sent and received payments

0️⃣ Support of paying 0-amount invoices

🧹 Lots of fixes and minor improvements

🔔 Your Alby Go can now display notifications about payments sent and received connected nostr:npub19hg5pj5qmd3teumh6ld7drfz49d65sw3n3d5jud8sgz27avkq5dqm7yv9p wallet.

Have you ever zap from nostr:npub12vkcxr0luzwp8e673v29eqjhrr7p9vqq8asav85swaepclllj09sylpugg damusapp and wasn't sure If the zap went through? Alby Go will notify you immediately that payment was successful

0️⃣ Want to pay for a coffee with your sats, but the invoice you've been shown was without amount, so you needed to ask the merchant to input the amount in order to pay?

No more of this friction! Simply scan the amountless invoice and type the amount you ought to pay, confirm and voilà.

🧹 Some minor fixes and improvements in this release:

⚡ Updated setting up LN address flow to avoid confusion

🐘 Increased button touch area in header for ease of use

🐛 Fixed alert titles being truncated and updated transaction icon colors

Alby Go is completely free and open-source.

You can verify the app, contribute to the code, send tip to contributors, fork and make your version

See the full change log here: https://github.com/getAlby/go/releases/tag/v1.9.0

The notifications in general are nice, but they are annoying when streaming sats to a podcast… can we please have a setting to limit when notifications are shown based on sending or receiving amount? For example? I don’t want to see any sends under 1,000 sats but want to see all received sats.

Hey everyone, the very first release of #OpenVox has been released! It’s a drop in replacement for #Puppet and is ready for initial evaluation. Here’s a link to the blog post with more details via #HackerNews in hopes you’ll help vote it is so that even more people know what #VoxPupili has accomplished 😁

Oh. My. Goodness… I have wasted so much time over the last two days, and some additional time on a previous project, because of what I now know to be a failed USB enclosure for a m.2 NVMe drive! I never imagined that the enclosure itself was the failed partition 🤯
