On desktop, is it possible to set up Coracle for one-click zapping? I can zap via the lightning QR code, but that requires me to pick up my phone, login, then zap. It works, but I'm lazy, so this is a hindrance. One (or two) click zaps would be awesome. (I use coinos.io as my "zap wallet" by the way.) @ hodlbod

Over the summer I decided I needed to read Neal Stephenson fiction. I read "Snow Crash", and liked it. Certain parts of it I thought were a little silly, yet fun, but I was amazed at how far ahead he was with regard to the metaverse and, literally, is credited with coining the term in that book. Being fascinated by bitcoin, I started reading Cryptonomicon and so far am liking it even more. The history or mix of history and fiction is terrific. A couple of years ago I'd heard of some "sci-fi author" possibly being Satoshi. As a non sci-fi reader, I didn't think much of it. But, I'm certain he was the one that was being referred to. I don't think he is Satoshi, but it's fun to pretend. For now, I'll just keep reading and enjoying, and learning. I've found that I learn a bunch of history by reading fiction where the main characters and storyline are mixed and merged into a true history. Sometimes it's hard to tell what's real and what's not, kind of schizophrenically, but that's okay too. Anyway, that's not even why I started writing this! I wrote this because I recently came across this article by Arkinox. He's building out "Cyberspace" or the metaverse using bitcoin's proof-of-work (cryptography, math, physics) and nostr. I've got to dig in deeper, but my gut tells me there's something to this. See article:

I just saw commercial that said, "This is 100% real," and I immediately thought, "So, this is 100% fake." Does that make me a bad person?

Evidently, trees are racist. Or, at least banyan trees are racist.

I saw somebody thankful for the "cheap sats" recently. #Bitcoin was at $113K and we're seeing it as a discount. We've come a long, long way!

For somebody who lives a rather boring and normal life, I get more interaction from "everyday life posts" than bitcoin or tech posts. Not sure what that means exactly, I guess either (a) my bitcoin/tech takes are ho-hum, (b) I'm not as boring as I think, or (c) we need more non-bitcoin, non-tech posts. I'm ruling out (b) and lean toward (c).

Aneighbir gave me one of these floating bulb thermometer things. I'm enough of a nerd to put it outside/inside/places just to wait watch and watch it do something. Pretty much a slow, thermometer lava lamp.

Can somebody explain for the uncool people like me as to why there are a bunch of rats on nostr today. Help increase my cool level from 1 to 2.

Shapeflation I'm coining a new term right here and now: shapeflation We all know inflation all too well.
