wake on lan is one of those things that usually works when you test it and never works when you need it

impossible not to send some sats to this good boy!

you can have 100 separated wallets if you're gonna open that veracrypt drive and keepass on the same computer you use to argue with stranger over the internet it doesn't help you much

clearly there is deniability and at rest security in mind with veracrypt+keepass but accessing that is problematic and the author glances over a large part of a threat model for self custody with everything missing (or omitted) in the post. so i don't think i'm missing anything, i completely understand and see the missing parts of his setup

trusting the machine you are using is a big assumption and should generally be avoided as much as possible (just look at the recent bybit hack). having separate machine only for bitcoin wallet stuff and not connecting it to the internet is basic opsec for setups like this.

Something being a mess doesnt mean that a lesser solution is better by default.

Nostr ux is a mess but its still better than twitter in other aspects.

Self custody is messy, its complex and complicated, theres no great solutions to many problems. There is a lot of handwaving and assumed "you only need to do this 100 things and it works". Unlikely that in 100y we are still using the same concepts or that we onboard a billion people the same way. It gets better over time but thats besides the point.

Solution in original post is crap hence my warning. You decided to hang on the messy self custody cpmment part of that comment.

You've clearly misunderstood my comment on several levels.

I never said people should use custodial solutions instead. But given how you managed to misunderstand my simple comment its not a stretch to think that self custody might be quite a complicated process for people even without some half baked ideas on hpw to roll your own setup like the original post.

i'm not sure i follow what should be tied into awesome nostr? you mean porting the repo to gitcitadel?

haha I reserved a GX10 tho tbh I didn't even find much info about it besides the storage diff

lets see if i'm on the right continent to get it when they become available

I'm gonna wait for nvidia digits first, while much smaller vram if the original price point will be roughly on point you could get 128gb vram for around $3k (obviously it will be more) but i'm curious to see how price/performance will compare, specially if you could get multiple Digits for the same amount
