Q: how can a small #business go about accepting #bitcoin / #lightning along side fiat in the US? I’ve got a few friends and acquaintances who are not a techies who I’d like to pitch this idea to.

I want someone to integrate #Bitchat bridging into the #Meshtastic firmware so you can optionally have people on both chattting away, say at a camp out or conference. Each participating Meshtastic radio would be able to support nearby people in my theoretical world.

After trying #Fedora, I jumped over to #Ubuntu yesterday because a few commercial apps I really want are only packaged for it. I again added #Hyprland tricked out via

and like it for the most part, but am not sure it'll stick... we shall see. I still want to make some adjustments based on #Omarchy and integrate what I can from my #NixOS setup.

I spent some time tonight distro hopping and decided to roll with #Fedora Workstation #KDE, and to supplement it with #Hyprland tricked out via

I'm also taking inspiration from some other places such as #Omarchy and combining it all with what I can from my #NixOS setup.

Wes: how do you deal with the fact that #ESPHome in #nix is always way behind? I have tried going that route for building updates but it lags behind HAOS and the associated add in too much. So far for me, I’ve resorted to using a virtual environment on macOS to do builds so that the versions match and builds are fast.

I stumbled across #Shopstr tonight and wanted to get your take on it. It talks about using both #Lightning & #Cashu and I was hoping maybe you could explain Cashu and its place in the ecosystem as I don’t get why you wouldn’t just use lightning.

Stumbled across this tonight and thought it might fit into LUP or TWIB… or maybe a little of both. The tech seems vey LUP but Cashu sounds very TWIB. They seem to have recently refactored around Nostr too, so Cashu may not be part of it any longer… I can’t tell.
