Sleepy gave everyone in this hellthread a badge but me. So petty, i love it LOL

Gm nostr,

I learned something yesterday while trying to orange pill a couple college students.

There are a lot of people who are ok with theft if it's in their favor.

This seems to be the reason so many people stop at shitcoins, they don't think they will be the loser, and as long as they win they don't care who suffers.

It's only when someone isn't ok with theft in either direction do they look further to Bitcoin.

I could be wrong about this but it's come up quite a few times now.

*sigh* 🤷‍♂️😄

Sport requires people watching or it doesn't work as intended.

Deserve is a funny word.

I think it is the strongest form of honesty that we have available… notifying others of your actions.

Then we can see and decide with our own understanding.

Nice note.

Is anybody here successfully running Bitcoin Core v28 on a machine with 8GB of RAM or less? Trying to figure out if this issue is just me: have a machine that gets stuck while opening the chainstate DB due to running out of memory.

Good morning Nostr!

Say hello to my friend, 2J. Some of y’all met at Nostrville. Gonna lurk for a while, but would like to follow and get to know some good peeps.

Come for the freedom.

Stay for the friends. 💜

How's everyone's cooking going?

I realized my Slow Cooker Mashed Potatoes recipes needs some adjustment and working on that now

Found this pattern for a crochet corn mask, I have a green shirt. Maybe I'll make it and be corn for Halloween 🌽😂🤷‍♀️. #nostrween #crochet #crochetstr #halloween #corn

Welp. That’s a solid 222,000 sats I’ll never see again 😥⚡️💸

Never been scammed before, but it feels kinda shitty. In hindsight, the high hashrate and final-settlement-only payment methods should have tipped me off. Seeing the .org website, I assumed maybe it was the foundation behind the company, or something. But should have dug deeper.

On the other hand, I get so many scam calls and social engineering attempts, I think I felt a false sense of security around knowing what to expect or look for. But that stuff is all “outbound” scamming, rather than standing up a WooCommerce site to take payment for something they never deliver.

Definite bummer. Definitely glad it wasn’t more money. Expensive lesson learned 😔🫡 nostr:note1m4y6fudyeevzw8wm88dwyxzklsy8m2sz8d0ym29ts4zcu82yzdqsq2vacp

I'll tell you this one.

Just think that once it happened to me that a painting arrived from my art buyer many days late so I apologized for it, I was really sorry for what happened.

However, the buyer was of infinite kindness and responded to me:

“No worries, art is timeless not timely. The painting is beautiful.”

It was one of the nicest compliments received.

My art buyers are one better than the other.

I must admit that so far I have been very lucky.
