I am running a pruned Monero node on my GrapheneOS pixel phone. Cake Wallet connects directly to that local node with background sync and notifications enabled. Everything is proxied through Tor via InviZible Pro. This is freedom money. 
Crunched the numbers for December's Cake Pay transactions....drum roll please 🥁

I guess I'm not the only one getting some Starbucks sugar cookie almondmilk lattes during the holiday ☕️

Monero is real money, that is actually used.
I was stranded in a car in a storm. The storm took out all the cell towers. With nothing to do, I decided to do some biohacking, chill out, use some Near Infrared Light, and do some vagal stimulation to remove the stress of the freaking wind that was shaking my car and throwing over reusable bathrooms around me.
I turned the device on, but it needed to log in and go to the internet. Which was, of course, not working because of the storm.
Why does an electric nerve stimulator need an account and access to the Internet? I sighed. A few moments later, I wanted to learn about BLE hacking and reverse engineering. The code was written mostly by ChatGPT anyway, but I did some nice reverse engineering of the protocol. The result is this micro app. Have fun.

I even did a not so perfect icon:
I love coding.
What A nice story! Only nerds like us understand this 😉
#Monero was mentioned in the German #Tatort TV series. It is produced by the public broadcaster ARD, which are not neutral.
Of course, Monero is mention in a bad way: used for a darknet crime.

Not sure, but I think it's when the phohe is X hours locked. I have never experienced an unattended restart, when I was using my phone.
GrapheneOS has this feature: auto reboot 😊
Raycast Notes enhance note-taking on macOS with Markdown formatting, export options, and AI tools. It offers five free notes, with unlimited notes via Pro subscription, and integrates deeply into Raycast's ecosystem.

I wish Raycast was fully open source.
Wow I said the same to my friends this morning: I can't wait until Ross Ulbricht is on Joe Rogans Podcast 😄
Hey nostr:nprofile1qqsrnnzne83l04ycpvsmaf0tezjmnn0hlfjnjsctt2pxazk4yutgv4spr9mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuumwdae8gtnnda3kjctv9uq32amnwvaz7tmjv4skc7fwv3sk6atn9e5k7tcpzamhxue69uhhsmtj9e6hxetwdaehgu3wdaexwtch5wdjr, I have tried to reach you via DM a few month ago but no reply was received. So I am asking you publicly if it is possible to correct our listing (https://kycnot.me/service/skhron) to include Bitcoin #Lightning? We use BTCPay Server to receive it for a while already using own node.

I use AnyType as well and can recommend it as an alternative to Notion. But also AppFlowy is worth a try.
Should I try it with Monero Suite?
Is there a good way to use it together with Tor? Vanadium + Tor? I want only the PWA to use Tor, not Vanadium in general.
Switched back from garnet to Amethyst. Amethyst is much faster, has less connectivity issues and has more features. I wish the maintainer of garnet would sync the project with upstream.
I am testing a new #Monero Wallet from https://xmruw.net
It has no name yet, but I really like it on my GrapheneOS so far. It reminds me of FeatherWallet, but for mobile. Check out the screenshots!
