All processes start a bit messy, but always keep the big picture at the forefront of your goals. When we built this cabinet, we used wood we collected about two years prior, not knowing when or where we would use it. They were going to trash these 100-year-old beams. It was painful to work with, but we were so grateful for the end result. #woodworking Looking forward to start making things again, and hopefully sharing it (maybe in Olas?). A big part of selling my business in 2022 was due to the fact I became so dependant on Instagram as company for sales, I did not like that feeling at all. Nostr solve this problem. It can solve it for many people, they just dont know yet. image

#primal @primal when you restore default relays, and connect new ones, including your premiun. What is the rebrodcast feature? Should I do this to store old notes on new relays as I disconect from the others?

#asknostr Testing new relays, pls if you can give feedback if this is a good set up, should I add anything or delete anything. I will #zap any feedback. If paying for primal premiun, should I also paid for nostr wine inbox? Read Vitor guide, but in primal I can not necesarly specify what relay are for what. I am not sure what exactly to add, used to have like 19 relays connected now I have this after resetting: wss://ca.purplerelay.com/ (I guess is a public relay?) wss://premium.primal.net/ (paid) wss://purplepag.es/ (I guess is a public relay?) wss://relay.damus.io/ wss://relay.primal.net/ wss://rss.nos.social/ (I guess is a public relay?) wss://nostr.wine/ (paid) wss://filter.nostr.wine/ (paid)

I have no problem calling the good things Trump does, good. And neither have a problem calling the bad things he does, evil, why so many Christians have this problem baffles me, it's border line cult, and I belive the right is falling just as the left did, in a cult behavior. Dangerous. Want to bring back industrial progress within the U.S soil, by all means. Want to be a good nation leader, yes. Want to achieve this by populism,lies and being a bully. Evil. simple. And I do not stand by it. Free thinkers should think freely and criticism should be for good and evil. A short note from an article I wrote some weeks ago. "Blindly accepting lies is morally wrong; motives do not matter more than truth. As moral beings, we are called to follow the truth, not lies. This should be basic common ground. Unwavering support for your elected officials, when they boldly lie to your face, especially if you know it is a lie, borders on cultish behavior. Not even trying to find the truth in their claims because you "mostly agree with their policies" is not much different. "The truth will make you free" is, in fact, a biblical reality that goes beyond the immediate context of Christ making you free. Although that is the ultimate and prophetic meaning, it is also a universal moral guide that should lead us to love light and truth, not darkness and lies."

The moments you tressure...before selling my woodshop, used to take my kids and experience papa's work place, play with wood. In hopes they will start since you learning the value of working with their hands. I got it from my dad, and electrician, among many other gifts. All my other degrees pale in comparison to the reward of making something from raw materials. Hope to keep giving them these opportunities in the future from my small and humble garage. #parenting #woodworking image

GM Use your mornings to build up your faith, your body, and your mind. Let control to God and let go of the steering wheel.

Panama needs to cut ties with China, while Rubio is all happy about El Salvador. Yet, China also sponsors a bunch of programs there and has businesses operating on U.S. land. The fake and hypocritical interest-driven politics are beyond stressful, especially when they disregard the sovereignty of small countries. For now, I need to focus on the things under my control—my family, faith, work, and body.

Secondary bevel for a plane iron. I used to think sanding was relaxing… but then there was the dust. Machine #woodworking is fast, but it’s not nearly as rewarding as using hand tools. Relax and sharpen your tools. It’s not a step back; it’s learning the fundamentals.

Also testing the @Npub.pro site and cool to see that it automatically update, I have done almost no work on it yet. But the filter by tag, navigation and code injection are really cool features. https://nostr.javierfeliu.com/ Not sure yet, how not to have a duplicated site, when you self host.

@Alby just curious, is there any chance that in the future, Alby Hub could have a personal nostr relay(media and notes storage) and also an alby private relay for Alby Hub users ... or something along those lines? Is not a relay similar set up as node? Just curious, and this may be a completely nonsense question if so ignore! have a GM 🐝

#asknostr What ate the best recommendations for better discoverability on #nostr , I have the default relays when I joined about 1.5 years ago. Apart from being social, good content, and interact, what else can I do? Should I look into a pay relay? Currently I pay for albyhub for my lighting node. Use primal (not premiun) for phone and desktop, use highlighter for long content. I also want to set up a npub pro site. And ideally need some media hosting....I am a woodworker and like business and definitely want to create good content here, also my wife has great homeschool and early childhood content. I mostly zap, not much likes, actively participating in v4v. I realize things should not be free when they cost to someone else, but what would be possible combinations that I am not paying for "duplicate " services. #nostr #relays
