Here's another thing that came out of this crisis: most of you aren't Nostr maximalists. You've still got one foot on X. To each their own, but this way mass adoption is never going to happen when the important Bitcoin topics aren't primarily discussed here. And no, not even if you say "but I want to pull people from over there to here." Not as long as screenshots of tweets are being shared here instead of the other way around. Don't kid yourselves about that.

Today was a tough day. I replaced the sink, the whole sink unit with the basin in the kitchen. Old one out to the bulk trash, new one in. What a filthy job. But I noticed while doing it that the industry really uses all kinds of different formats for the connections. An inlet pipe is a few millimeters bigger than the old one, screw fittings are all different sizes and lengths... and they expect us IT folks to deliver standards and universal compatibility. But in the real world they haven't managed to standardize the connections for decades and still produce slop.

The people running this npub are absolutely no Bitcoiners and have no clue what Bitcoin is. View quoted note →

That happens when you completely lose touch with reality. It starts with not knowing how much a loaf of bread costs in your country and then just keeps going unchecked. View quoted note →

I've got a suggestion for all those streaming service providers, HBO, Netflix, Paramount, or whatever they're all called. How about this: if a user rates a movie with a thumbs down, you just never show them that movie again? Not in the recommendations, not in "For You," maybe you could even take it out of the trending charts for that user. Those are all manipulated anyway, nobody believes that stuff anyway. Basically like a mute, like a "never bother me with this shitty movie again." Would that be doable for you big product owners and devs?

We should never have a "Bitcoin establishment". That's not SAIF, lol. View quoted note →

Indeed. If you can't sketch out your project idea in 5 minutes, don't even bother starting. View quoted note →

Quite concerning news about Buzz. Would have to audit it myself if I had any interest in using tools like that. View quoted note →

Gotta get rid of this 💩. Really. Won't get better any time soon. View quoted note →

Aleppo soap and a miswak. That's all a man needs for a grooming kit. Good perfumes are an extra. View quoted note →
