Yikes, that's a bad ngu. Too much travel the last few months. But pretty uneven 2025 in general. Looking forward to staying home for a while and getting back to some discipline. 12-13% is my usual comfortable target. Pretty easy to get there without doing anything extreme.

Plane landed safely in Panama City, but seeing this while boarding did give me a few doubts.

Wha...? (no, I don't actually want to know)

Chilling in a cafe in São Paulo* and just as I'm about to leave, the opening riff to Franz Ferdinand's "Take Me Out" starts playing. Had to stay the extra ~4 minutes. Of course. So f'n catchy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ijk4j-r7qPA --- *(yes, that's Japanese text; huge Japanese community here)

BREAKING: There are banana vending machines in São Paulo! 👀🤯

Laundry day for nostr:nprofile1qqstwd7k7hyv5nf94v9zchtcwe6gyak529j0ah7tgjueudwrryj2d6ck96nw5 is always kind of hilarious. When she's at home she always has a toy in her mouth. So pretty quickly they all reek of dog saliva. 🤢 --- Bonus: Kuma with her croissant overlooking Nashville last week!

Really f'n fun to watch a Chicago Bears game at a hardcore Bears bar in Nashville! Crowd thinned out a bit as, unusually for the Bears, the game was well in hand by the time the 3rd quarter ended. https://v.nostr.build/3qAn0oC2xoeGwtfp.mp4 https://v.nostr.build/proxy2JxDCnZxaZY.mp4 https://v.nostr.build/In6OUZhjSVQW3ude.mp4

Ha, ungovernable hikers in Tennessee.

I'm grateful that dog vomit doesn't smell.

The best reason to stay on twitter is to be able to name and shame bad actors. This is serious bullshit. Lightspark needs to move the fuck off of "sp1" addrs. https://v.nostr.build/Cf6ewBCvhdk5ZbLT.mp4

Because of course! Pro tip: I did the soldering with an old broken display hat, not knowing if the heat or anything else might screw it up (I think that loose pin was due to a flaw in the old hat's connector). https://v.nostr.build/RR8R1TU6SFl747Gx.mp4 --- Step 4: Inspect again, trim solder cones.

I'm in a coffee shop that somehow has an infinite remix of this song. It is NOT just the song playing on repeat. It's literally never ending. The grating, wavy, derivative chorus (it wants to be Mazzy Starr and Natalie Imbruglia's "Torn" all at once) just keeps returning and returning for like 10min so far. Absolute torture. This is hell.

Step 1: Buy a 3gb eSIM for travel to Riga. Step 2: Meet lots of European Bitcoiners and follow them on nostr. Step 3: Get warnings about data usage. Step 4: Cry. Step 5: Top up eSIM so I don't run out on my last day. wtf.

Kind of a glass half empty / glass half full situation. Was searching the house to see if I had a cooler bag to bring cold stuff with me to Bitdevs tonight.
