Even Pewds is using GIMP and Linux. At this point, I have to admit, I’m just being lazy. Today, I’m changing that. I’ll be running it on Apple Silicon hardware. If you have any suggestions, let me know.

For me, Covid was the breaking point. The government wasn’t just restricting our freedom of movement, they were actively punishing anyone who didn’t take that rushed vaccine. I still remember not being allowed to board a flight unless I had tested negative a few hours earlier. I was only 20, and it shaped the way I see everything now.

The worst part? Watch any video about this on YouTube. All these “experts” are basically gaslighting you, pretending it’s absurd to even question it. And they all use that same spectrum chart as their trump card, gamma rays way over here, wireless stuff way down there. Like that automatically proves it’s harmless. It’s infuriating.

This won’t sit well with everyone, but Lightning isn’t pleasant to work with if you’re not running your own node. You hit walls quickly. And the wallet inconsistencies just make it worse. It’s not a design flaw. it’s just a different philosophy. At one point, there was even a spec for a “verify” URL to check payment status, but it got shut down for encouraging what they called lazy programming. View quoted note →

Cashu is seriously impressive. If you’re building anything Lightning-related, definitely consider using Cashu. It’s super versatile & really easy to work with. Minting and melting are literally just two simple API calls each, that’s it. You can even send payments directly to Nostr public keys, nutstash.app already supports that & NWC with budget limits. It’s genuinely solid work. There’s so much potential here, and I think we’re just scratching the surface.
