ketone urine strips are a worthless scam.

i picked up a pound of cacao, thanks! I've been on the hunt for high-quality, low-garbage chocolate for a while. Nostr, Bitcoin, and the Circle P never fail to deliver high quality products! Our children's children will live forever 😆

I could have been a lot more succinct.... > EV energy systems are more stockpilable and shelf-stable than ICE systems because they allow stockpiling productive energy capacity, whereas ICE systems only allow stockpiling consumable fuel. Assume that to be true. Given that, which EV available on the USA market maximizes all of: - the least dependent on cloud services for basic operation (this one is most important) - most user-maintainable - most user-customizeable - long-term reliable #askNostr View quoted note →

#askNostr - what would be your number one Electric Vehicle choice be if you were to suppose a full societal collapse shit hit the fan scenario? I know, I know, EVs are basically big-tech smartphones on wheels - but I'm starting from the premise that if there was little to no industrial capacity online, it would be comparatively easier to stockpile solar panels or wind turbines and batteries with longer shelf life than you could stockpile gasoline. I'm thinking about maintainable sovereignty with minimal dependencies. Simply: for EV engines, you can stockpile energy _production_ (simple solar/wind tech). for ICE, you cannot. So you're stuck with the shelf-life of however much gas you can squirrel away. A dumb, computer-less ICE is way more maintainable and reliable than a computerized EV, yes - but if you have nothing to pour into it to make it move, it's just a chunk of metal. So all that said: If you had to choose the most maintainable, least cloud-dependent, most likely to run for the longest in a mad max scenario EV, which would it be? personally, I'm not convinced ANY of them would even turn on in a grid-down scenario, but I've never done the research.

the obvious just struck me upside the head: **i should buy christmas gifts exclusively from bitcoin-only nostr vendors this year**. the old favorites i know and love, plus any that are new to me who can ship in time. if you're inclined to do the same, i humbly toss into the ring @Whitepaper Books for any avid readers (of any kind of writing) on your list! #circleP #plebmas

sats for holidays: back in the paper wallet days i printed some out for nieces and nephews as bitcoin stocking stuffers. since then i've swept them to hardware cold wallets, all the while sliding more sats in every year. each year i help their parents get a little closer to legit self-custody without my involvement. started with me as the custodian.. end goal being a self sovereign extended family (with a nice starter stack). bitcoin uncle club!

vinney here (the "v" in "v cavallo" 😆) i have a fully self-hosted lightning address at my own domain - zap@lnbits.vinneycavallo.com - that i achieve with lnbits on a public vps and a tunnel to an umbrel node on my LAN. it is a pain in the ass but it **does** work and makes me happy. the externally-reachable vps is the key. dm me on nostr if you want more details!

Has anyone had the experience of growing into adulthood with the US Dollar as their unit of account, and then moving to another country and having a different currency slowly but completely exist in their mental model as unit of account?
