I’m reckless using @White Noise v0.2.0 together with my nsec. Thanks to @ODELL for going all‑in on White Noise from the start, I wrapped my head around this new trade‑off mix. Just DM me or add me to groups in White Noise. I’m happy to collaborate in testing v0.2.0. PV 🫂 View quoted note →

@Vitor Pamplona: Deleting drafts by right‑swiping without any confirmation makes using drafts feel reckless and unreliable. It’s sad because the feature is otherwise smooth. At least add an option to disable swipe‑delete in the app settings if you don’t want (optional?) confirmations.

The Laptop‑Living‑Room Miner In a tiny apartment above his parents' kitchen, a self‑declared "pleb" named @_ stared at his battered laptop. He didn’t have a fancy office, a grant from Jack, or a shiny badge from OS. All he had were a half‑filled coffee mug, a squeaky chair, and a stack of bounty listings that promised satoshis for fixing little bugs. One rainy afternoon, @_ spotted a bounty titled "Patch the fee‑calculation edge case." The reward was modest - just enough for a week's worth of groceries - but the description read like a riddle. He cracked his knuckles, typed furiously, and after a few cups of instant coffee, he submitted a pull request that actually fixed the problem. The next morning, a notification pinged: "Bounty paid: 120,000 sats." He grinned. He'd earned his first "food money" straight from the Bitcoin network, no middleman, no paperwork. He transferred the satoshis to his Lightning wallet, bought a fresh loaf of bread, and even treated himself to a slice of pizza. Word spread among the shitcoiners. They started calling him "the Laptop‑Living‑Room Miner", because he proved that you don't need a corporate lab to contribute to the ecosystem. He taught newcomers three simple lessons: * Permissionless participation - Anyone with a computer can improve the code, no matter where they live. * Economic sovereignty - Earn satoshis directly for genuine work; the timechain records every payment transparently. * Humility wins - Let the code speak for itself; bragging rights come later, if at all. Soon @_ was invited to virtual meet‑ups, where he shared his story while munching on the very pizza he'd bought with his bounty. He joked, "I may be a pleb, but my laptop’s louder than any corporate hype!" The crowd laughed, learned, and felt inspired to dust off their own laptops. In the end, he realized that the real treasure wasn't the satoshis alone - it was the community, the learning, and the fact that even a random guy in his parents' house could leave a lasting mark on the Bitcoin world. And every time he heard the familiar hum of his laptop fans, he reminded himself: "Keep coding, keep earning, and keep having fun - because the timechain loves a good story." View quoted note →

And all of a sudden, we all just do things we never imagined doing, even in our wildest dreams. LFG, which stands for “Looking for Group” as well as “Let’s Fucking Go”, is not accidental; the two meanings belong together. 🥹 PV 🫂 View quoted note →
