When I say something like "a country is retarded"... I'm talking about a country's current state of subdued or hindered societal progress. It makes sense in my mind, and it makes sense linguistically; is there a better phrase that communicates the same meaning in as few words? 🤷♂️
I'd rather run backups of a matrix server, with all of their faults, than rely on Discord.
Pay some sats to join the rooms maybe?
Move to 0xchat instead?
I understand the audience, but... bad look
I've never had to migrate from their servers but moving our nostr:npub1gvmc3nvmjekx7e0qlkeaqw2cqypvtqdcg4ljuz0wfj3zxjnnauys3ngk9f from one VPS to another wasn't bad at all. It was more or less a DB and a media dir.
It's not moving the instance thats a challenge; all of the data is tightly coupled to a given homeserver domain, which AFAIK can't be migrated to a new domain without hacking things 😔
Specter has an embedded node, wouldn't say it's dummy proof, but better than core.
Yeah if onchain isn't an option and we wanna go straight to lightning, we'll have to deal with tradeoffs (or just do the work to run a real node)
Bisq or HodlHodl can help with the fiat bridge in EU for onchain. In the US, Bisq offers the usual interbank services, but also offers US money orders, basically cash in the mail 😉
It's definitely not easy, but it does work.
Lotta folks saying meat, but eggs work just as well too and are a lot more convenient sometimes 👍
The key is: little to no carbs, so no insulin release, so no fat storage, but instead with a caloric deficit you get fat burning.
Closed source + money stuff = Govt/IC scrutiny & unilateral involvement, often done silently
It's a recipe for disaster; it's why we use nostr 😎
If relai provides value, then use it, but don't lose sight of the forward risk you're assuming from those very powerful adversaries going forward 👍
I'd love to know more! Links or resources? Explanation?
"You can lead a horse to water, but at some point, you'll just need to put it out of its misery"
"self inflicted wound" as in "we're gonna suicide you now, but you brought this on yourself" 😔
I also think theres an underappreciated amount of nonverbal communication that happens amongst a developmet team, that AI can't really incorporate (yet?). Tbere's a gap between the rigor of coding & the ambiguity of english which doesn't exist as much with chatbots
The larger the team, the harder it gets to fill that gap IME. AI makes me persinally more efficient when coding, kind of, but that's it so far. I may just not be using it to it's potential
Rapeseed... I think it's the most masculine of seed oils 😉
It's an "app store" where you "search" for repos of open source projects you want, and it monitors, grabs, and installs the apk's they bundle into releases for those repo.
Tradeoff: there's no vetting of bad software, it's all on you
Benefit: there's no censorship; it's all on you
Sorry...4, not 2. Dyslexic typo!
If you're a good grandfather who's friends with another good grandfather, you'll understand how trivial this puzzle really is 😉

Weeks is a short timeframe to move fiat, and an excellent opportunitiy to study and reinforce your choice in the meantime.
This phenomenon is like mass literacy; it'll take decades & folks over 50 in 2024 will typically never truly grok what's happening today.
The kids who are 10 years old today...they're going to be the ushers of "mass adoption"
Whether someone figured this out in the runup to $12 or the runup to 1k or the runup to 20k or the runup to 69k or today...or 4 more cycles from now... something tells me in ~2045, most economic actors will be acutely aware of bitcoin.
But, 20 more years is a long time to propagandize a generation against it, and the psychological manipulators capable of that are literal professionals with access to many dimensions of social warfare, and with a far lower time preference than most bitcoiners 🤷♂️😔
Nah you're right. Better to stare at it, wait for that autorefresh you're waiting for, and then dance like a lunatic when it pops up
At least, thats how we do it 😅
She'll have a Cats in the Cradle moment with her kids in the future
...assuming we're still allowed to drive cars by that time
