Can anyone recommend a wired headset (headphones + microphone) that doesn’t make me look like a streamer or call center employee?

Most nights I try and catch up on household chores or put in hours on actual work. It’s rare that I will give myself a break: pour a glass of wine and find something to watch or listen to. For some reason I did that tonight. I’ll forever remember that is what I was doing when bitcoin hit 100k. I was enjoying the simple things, as life should be. What were you doing when bitcoin hit 100k?! I want to know!

2½ years ago (summer 2022) @npub1dq94...2pg8 had a dream for a bitcoin tech game. While it was an exciting idea, I almost ran the other way because I knew just how big of an undertaking it would be! This the (brief) story @Saving Satoshi from where I sit.

Try Bitcoin

was my best attempt, and that was nowhere near a fraction of what this game needed to be. I couldn't build it, but I knew I wanted to help. Lucky for us, we picked up some pretty talented friends along the way - @Christoph Ono @BenAllenG @npub1mxvj...0ah8 @art assoiants , the mysterious 6 cats that run the @Spiral account, @npub12s5j...t6jr @J.T. Woodhouse, and so many more. When I had my second baby in June 2023 we were in the middle of chapter 3. I was going on 6+ months of maternity leave with no plans to return and save Satoshi (sorry!). You can imagine my shock last spring when I saw how much progress the team made while I was gone. Their continued dedication and excitement was contagious! Once my baby started sleeping through the night I seized my opportunity to jump back in. Every night after the kids went to bed I would spend a few hours helping in whatever way I could. My bandwidth was extremely limited and calls of any kind were off the table but the team was responsive and enthusiastically matched my energy. Along the way I've had the honor of doing a little bit of everything - lesson content, story writing, development, QA, marketing, workshop hosting, and project management. I even designed a (failed) plushie for the story's villian, Thomas Vanderpoole! Saving Satoshi has made me a better open source contributor in all those areas. It's wild to me that today the 10th and final chapter of @Saving Satoshi is live. This game is truly a labor of love. Give it a try, tell us what you think. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did building it.
