A new pleb (well, Nostr user at least) to welcome. Not that it should make a difference but this one is a reporter, and hence can amplify the effect of a warm welcome! View quoted note →

I LOVED this interview. It's so inspiring to hear about freedom tech projects advancing in the shadows. I had the pleasure/opportunity to test fedimint at a workshop at Bitcoin Atlantis. The Fedi team impressed me there & this interview revealed how hard they've been working. I'm feeling really bullish about community custody (& I don't service my car beyond screen wash, wiper blades & an occasional oil change!), particularly in the under-banked / unbanked communities. https://fountain.fm/episode/b3wgP0vWQqWvihzUF77J View quoted note →

Haven't listened to this site yet, but I'm sure it'll be a good one. Here's a little value, thank you for your work. https://fountain.fm/episode/wrzyNXJmhLRjcnyf8ZoP View quoted note →

You sir, are on fire at the moment. Show after high content show. Here's a little value, you deserve more. I'm now exploring bull wallet thanks to your interview. 🫡 https://fountain.fm/episode/EbMc3RgmnFzx6S5UXbns View quoted note →

Thanks for the high signal, here's a small amount of value in return. I'm a few shows out but PLEASE stay audio focussed. Visuals (e.g. notes on your nostr account) as an add-on would be a bonus but I'm finding I have to stop, dry/clean my hands multiple times per show where they've leaned more heavily into video. It's frustrating, when I've hit a rhythm in some tedious chore, and am successfully transported to realms of self-sovereign contemplation / education, to have to stop what I'm doing and drop back into reality to work out what on earth they're talking about! It makes the task seem longer and I enjoy the show a bit less. Anyway that's my view. Thanks for all the work you put in.

Dear Nostr, Testing. About to try another vibe coding project.

Delighted by these two calendars from @Jeppesenphotography. One stays, the other's a gift. The beauty of nature brought into two homes. Thank you. Find more of his work by following @Jeppesenphotography

Just back from the @Northants Bitcoin Network mini sats market & pleb meet. Where else can you learn about minimal-intrusion Zambian organic honey farming; self-hosted, permissionless NOSTR shops and (of course) chew the knots vs core fat a bit. Happy to have a learnt a thing. Delighted to have spent an evening with the best tribe. Kudos to @Yojimble for pulling it together, and the polished pumpkin carving.

Roasting chicken, being efficient and multitasking. Doing admin in parallel, like signing up the local pleb meet for the Blockstream beginners educational pack. Have alarms set for key times. Feeling like a capable adult. Alarm goes off. Head downstairs. Discover the chicken's been in for 1hr longer than expected, but at the lower heat. Find meat thermometer. Probe chicken. It's definitely cooked. Leave to rest. Head upstairs feeling grateful but less capable. Go complete sign up. Check phone. Time's reversed, it's now only 20 mins since the chicken was meant to be turned up. Head downstairs, realise it's clock change day & the oven is airgapped 🙃. Lose all sense of capability. Put oven back on. Twice-baked chicken's fine, right?🙄

Looking forward to tasting this... 😋
