Nothing fancy to say this morning. Just this… Be bold in your faith! Obedience to God is better than our comfort and sacrifice.

Yep…that’s exactly the problem in the UK… 🤦‍♂️ View quoted note →

Learned a valuable lesson re: Lightning Nodes. Apparently if you travel for any duration across a couple days, resulting in your hub being offline...your channel gets forced closed. There was 19k sats down the drain. Would have been better off sticking to my original plan of just using boltz to move my sats on-chain when I hit a certain threshold. Otherwise might as well just keep my sats in a custodial Lightning wallet; which defeats the purpose of self-custody. Oh well...live and learn!

Seriously… The older I get the more I long for simplicity. I found myself saying this weekend, if I could get rid of my phone, I would. I mean technically I can…but then how would my wife and son communicate with me 🤣 View quoted note →

Welp… The day got away from me, so… Good Morning (afternoon and NIGHT) tonight ;) Spent 11 hours driving yesterday. So today I was a little wiped and aftern my morning errands, decided to nap 🥱 Woke up, took care of several important relational emails, I think I reNoted and QuoteNoted a couple people here on NOSTR, then for homeschooling this evening my son wanted to bake copycat PDQ cranapple oatmeal cookies. So we did that, skimmed the Magic game after I watered the garden, and here I am in bed again 🤣 I had one interesting personal reaction to something that happened here today. Someone, a business owner, randomly zapped one of my Notes with a marketing message. At first I was like, “whatever dude, the least you could have done was actually engage with me…” That was my knee jerk reaction becasue I’ve trained myself to be relational, not transactional (I didn’t used to be that way). But then I was like…yea it was transactional but: 1. I did click through to his profile and then his website 2. He paid ME to take that action… So essentially I sold my attention for a few pennies but I made the sats, not some corporate behemoth making money off me and my attention… I GET to choose! 🤑 Who knows, being a presence in the marketplace could become its own online business model via NOSTR! If you read to the end, thanks for being my friend and together let’s #growNOSTR And remember, if it’s worth a like, comment, follow, reNote or QuoteNote; it’s worth a #zap Heck; if you just want to advertise to me you can feel free to send #zaps my way too! Good night and God bless y’all #GN #GM #PV #business #advertising Pura Vida

This is cringe... Came across a company today whose service is "Data Monetization for Health Systems" Their copy goes on to say "...we help health systems tap into the untapped value hidden in their data." And you thought all your health data was private... HAH! So cringe worthy!
