If you think bitcoin is the only way to beat inflation, you might want to do your own research. If you're running around telling everyone bitcoin is the only way to beat inflation... please stop, for everyone's sake, but most of all, for yours.

@npub1n7pc...9qu4 I got your DM and replied, but I'm not sure if it made it to you. I'll hit you up again on our other comms system.

I'm glad I have a backup wallet for when my self-hosted one fails while I'm out and about. (I'll check the logs tomorrow to see if I can figure out why). I also had cash money on me in case both failed. Can't have too many backups.

TL;DR This doesn't affect self-hosters unless you have an AWS data source. View quoted note → This type of vulnerability is also why you might want to use the blackbox exporter instead of running an agent on every machine that your grafana server can access. It limits the damage in the event grafana ever does get compromised.

Apples were on sale today, so our monthly grocery budget is now completely shot. The upside is that if I get these all washed cored, sliced, seasoned and dried, we should be set on cinnamon apple chips for the year. 10 lbs down, another 20 lbs to go

PSA: 1/4 tsp of @kidwarp's bitpaste is too much for 24 fl oz of cola. It was tasty, but wow, what a kick in the face (you know, in a good way) Maybe an 1/8th tsp would be suitable. Will try that recipe next.

Why can't I find a site that lets me enter a lightning address and get: 1. a QR code with a lightning bolt on it, 2. text below the QR code and some text that says something like "pay using the lightning network" or "donate via lightning" In an appropriate format to download and print out on glossy 4x6" photo paper and attach to the wall or desk. Has nobody thought of this before? Do people not have the art skills to make this happen? These are the types of practical things that lightning advocates should be making easy.

I'm getting bored with nostr. Maybe I'm just following the wrong people, but it seems to be an echo chamber about how great the protocol is and platitudes about bitcoin. Interesting content outside of those two topic areas doesn't get many boosts, so when people do post it, it frequently doesn't get discovered. I've found maybe 8 people on here who post that kind of stuff. That's a pretty small social network. Combine that with the bots and technical issues DMs no longer being reliable and it's no wonder so many people bounce off and then tell all their friends not to bother with nostr. Since I delivered these bitter truths about my experience here, I'm already bracing for the reply guys who are going to tell me that I am the problem, or that it's not that bad. Probably at least one insinuation that I oppose freedom of speech or I'm using the wrong client. You know, the usual beratement and gaslighting.

Who can answer this without looking it up? What state are the New England Patriots from? Bonus points, what city?
