Sorry for troubles. If a notification about payment to lightning address / zap is delivered it means sats were received by the minibits lightning node and ecash for your wallet has been generated. It then waits on the server for the wallet to claim it.

There are unfortunately situations when wallet state gets out of order and claiming fails. There are now multiple fail safes now imolemented to resolve that on wallet side, in any case you're right it's critical to make this expereience flawless.

I sent myself ~$15 once and the wallet gave me the notification, but it wouldnt show up even after rescanning. Had to message them on X and they took care of it which is great, but wasnt the first time that happened either

Check out Holesail.io ! More like a port forwarding tool than vpn, but its p2p (pears.com) and, crucially for me, still works when I turn vpn on to torrent. Great for effortlessly connecting to something away from home, and all you need is your private key

Got my sci fi manuscript back from the editor, meaning it's ready for me to look through all the proposed edits and do another draft.

But I have so much email to catch up on and so much macro content to get to.

So all day I'll be distracted. -_-'

It feels like someone somewhere started a rumor that money laundering causes mass inflation or something.

Or maybe it's the whole "they didn't pay their taxes so you gotta pay it".

Because I don't get it otherwise.

Is this lucky or an actual problem?

Inspiring- I love your definition of the word. I’ve had the chance to “retire” for 12mo+ a couple times. Each time coming out with a new direction or a creative project. Motivated for this next one to be the third, and final, “retirement”… owning my time permanently.

I'm starting to see so much more diversity on Nostr. This thing is really happening.

I finally started it after your 3rd or 4th posting lol, on episode 5 now.

Definitely has the propaganda feel to it but everything I was skeptical of was true when I looked it up (but only after heavy digging through mainstream bs sources). AI summarizers were actually more helpful to get clear answers.

How in the hell do we teach our kids true history with so much nonsense revisionist history everywhere we look? At the end of the day the reality of these events is probably somewhere in the middle of this series and what we were fed in school. I guess we just teach kids to be skeptical and persue learning from all angles?

Will continue to watch, so thanks for that recco!

I tried to order Grubhub tonight after two attempts but they cancelled for no reason.

Robots are taking over the world I guess, but they can't deliver to suburban NJ at 9pm despite being open, so in the meantime I'll cook some ground beef, spices, and greens. It's healthier than the Indian curry I ordered on the first try and Chipotle I ordred on the second.

Somewhat relatedly; I use the word "retard" in my sci fi manuscript one time. There's one character that uses that term, while others do not.

Because decades in the future, I do think someone who is impatient will look around and be like, "this is kind of retarded."

We need all types, every point of view, and node in the network contributes to protecting the network and human liberty.

I don’t take people with mushrooms in their bio seriously.

The attached might help

I havent seem him on X in a while either
