We had a bit of fun yesterday in the garden, the sun was splitting the stones all day, so we were chilling with a bunch of nodes. Yes, mini PC server units, we put @Umbrel ☂️ and @Start9 on some of them. It's all thanks to Mr @Huxley who provided the hardware. For anyone willing to learn more about his charity project visit his profile and follow the links to plebeian website. These bad boys are highly configurable, can take up to 4TB storage and plenty of RAM, to run smoothly your Bitcoin node, Lightning node, NOSTR relay to back up all your posts, and many more apps. We will do a meetup soon, in July, showing how to do this kind of setup from the scratch and show the comparison between those two Linux based operation systems Music from @Wavlake, can you guess the name of the song? -2140 sats for the first commenting with the right answer... + 2140 sats for the best comment(s) explaining the difference between Umbrell and StartOS, we are interested in educational comments so others can learn from them. Explain why you use one not the other....

Bitchat app looks very promising.. The timing is not coincidental, massive protests are on the horizon, and "they" may want these events to impose curfews, control, and draconian laws that strip us of our remaining rights. One of the focal points right now is the ongoing genocide. It's hard to pinpoint other reasons for protests of this scale, but the magnitude is undeniable, occurring across many countries. Asia, however, seems to be less active in this regard. At the end of July, significant protests are planned in London, something to watch out for.. Nostr protocol-based media will serve as a source of truth, leveraging the social graph of Bitcoin enthusiasts. With their npubs, we can verify that messages are coming from real accounts. We have unstoppable apps without backends, driven by free marketplace dynamics. Some Nostr relays will be operated by small private groups, hidden behind Tor, other by bitcoin meetups. The more relays the better. On top of them we are building Miss Lora Nostrah project... Various communication protocols will connect with NOSTR, enabling Bitcoin transactions across multiple layers of abstraction. We possess the right tools, but the majority are not yet ready to use them. They will face challenges in the long run. For this reason, we aim to plant seeds in their minds, enticing them with events backed by great live music. Music is the key! It creates a tribal connection deeply embedded within each of us. Not in the mood? Play your favorite tune for three minutes, sing, and dance, and your entire day will improve. This is how it works —it's all about the vibration of the particles. Raise the vibration, vibe with 2140.wtf. What's in the pipeline? A free music festival in Southeast London from September 11-14, featuring a Bitcoin agenda and mainly a lot of talented musicians. The Bitcoin Culture Festival a month later, in late October will include a massive Halloween party, which will also celebrate the Bitcoin whitepaper. Many musicians from various genres will be involved, and we are currently working on the right venue for this format. All forms of support are welcome: volunteers, experts, donations with SATs, merchants willing to showcase their crafts and sell for Bitcoin, artists, and NOSTR coders—everyone is invited aboard. The 2140.wtf ship is setting sail into the deep ocean, navigating toward beautiful, uncharted waters. Awaken the pirate, the rebellious spirit within you, and let’s build a better future together.
