Basically a loophole for supplying raw unpasteurised milk by selling it as “bath milk”.

Saturday afternoon walk

It’s getting closer to spring weather here too. Supposed to get up to 24° today although with some showers..

Spent the evening yesterday troubleshooting issues at work. It was DNS. Except it was IPv6 DNS, for only some ranges of IPv6 addresses and only impacting specific devices that don’t fall back correctly to IPv4 DNS.. Day off work today though!

It seems I just missed the really high fees.. the FC looks like it went through in the last block at 31 sats/vB. Agreed though that there are a lot of things that suck about LN..

The TX is published at 5sats V/b so probably OK, but I lost my channel with nostr:npub1ex7mdykw786qxvmtuls208uyxmn0hse95rfwsarvfde5yg6wy7jq6qvyt9 and I am not sure I’ll ever get one back. This is just madness and all this fee predictions bullshit is pissing me off

How is the fee difference prediction calculated in Eclair that it gets a force close..? And just as I started writing this reply I got a notification that I had a FC… 😭😭

Lunch time walk

I’m sure I could find the lightning address again… 🤣🤣

Probably not if it is genuine but I’ve started buying celtic sea salt and personally prefer the taste of that. Both potentially have health benefits compared with regular salt but I doubt they are that significant with the relatively small amounts of salt consumed.

Dinner. Steak with shiitake mushroom sauce. #proofofsteak

Started to build a new home lab recently, mainly with the intention to be able to run up a good number of virtual routers for learning purposes and experimenting with different technologies.

Currently it has:

- 2 x Cisco UCS C240 M4 servers running Proxmox

- Cisco 2911 router and 2960 switch used to provide management connectivity. The 2911 has a UCS E140S server module also running Proxmox for a couple of management VMs.

- Brocade ICX 7250 switch

- Fortigate 70F firewall

It is all sitting in my garage on an old IKEA coffee table at the moment although I should get a rack to mount it properly.
