@Damus notifications load fast AF now, and I can scroll waaaay back without freezing. Haven’t tried in a while, so maybe it’s not new, but it sure is nice. Great work, friends 🤝

“Bitcoin + Nostr Fixes This” Perhaps unintentional, but this is an excellent example of how we’re going to win, because this system is simply BETTER. Nostr fixes* eCommerce friction. All the “see product, add to cart, search next item, add to cart, repeat, view cart, edit cart, go to checkout, enter billing address, enter shipping address, enter payment method, accept terms, decline marketing, checkout, correct errors, re-enter credit card, checkout….” You get the idea. All of these clicks adds friction, or frustration, and makes it less likely that your customer actually buys the thing. Compare all that nonsense to “see photo, pay invoice”… this is bullish!! *in general, I don’t advocate for consumerism, and a lot of eCom is gross, wasteful, and blatantly manipulative. But like any tool, there’s a light and a dark side, and there’s a middle way. Obviously, Carlo’s beautiful works the farthest thing from “fiat” consumer culture. They’re proof-of-work-on-paper (or canvas 😉), paid for with hard-earned sound money. In any case, modern shopping, (whether for art, groceries, or whatever) is often done online. Nearly every business has the internet as a sales channel, because it expands their customer base exponentially. And just like being strategic about where you display t-shirts versus cargo pants, there are best-practices for online sales, and reducing friction is arguably the most important thing after discoverability and a functional platform. Anyway, I’m stoked to see the impact that these protocols have on businesses being able to sell (and save) in a new, better way. It’s already happening. Feeling bullish. /rant #grownostr #ecommerce View quoted note →

GM PV 🤙 Winter is so beautiful in the city

GN nostr… big week ahead 😴 (From the look of the last few notes in my feed, it might have already begun). Maintain humility and accumulate freedom funds 🫡 Love y’all.

This is one of my favorite photos I’ve seen on Nostr in 2+ years 🤩 View quoted note →

GM & PV, nostriches! Happy Sunday to all of you 🫂🙏🤙 Coffee’s brewing, come and get it while it’s hot ☕️ Nostr pro tip: be liberal with that “follow” button. It can be easy to forget, once you’ve been here a while and have your “familiar faces”. Try to follow a new npub at least every day. Nostr is growing all the time. I recommend following the majority of people that you interact with. (This is a reminder to myself as much as anything, btw). It will make your experience here richer, and of course you can always undo it if you don’t vibe later. Generally speaking, nostriches are kind, thoughtful, funny, intelligent, and cool. If you’re reading this, I bet you are, too. So you’ll probably vibe. #grownostr #plebchain #introductions #coffeechain

Anyone have experience with Kingston industrial microSD cards? I’m seeing 16GB around $20. Looking for a couple backups (for something like a ColdCard) and $40 for the ones sold by CoinKite just seems like a lot. I do recognize these cards aren’t cheap and it can be tough to find good ones, so if the advice is “just go with CoinKite”, I will. Also trying to gauge what sort of storage space I’d need for a rarely-used cold storage signer. Thoughts? #asknostr
