If you’re using the Lightning Networo on Signet and want to send some sats to another node, maybe you’ll find my LNBits Signet instance useful. Just create an account, invoice and pay yourself, create Lightning Addresses, LNURLp/w and all the other LNBits magic! signet.laisee.org

I learned that when you check in for a flight, the seat map may not show all available seats. Pretty mind blown when I noticed two passengers on the same Air Canada flight were presented with entirely different seat maps

I made it to Amsterdam! It's a great pleasure being back after a long time, and while the city seems to have gotten even more beautiful, walking in...
