so strange seeing you post all this bonsai stuff recently. i was talking to my wife last weekend about my getting into bonsai so there's definitely something in the air. love to see it, keep it up. there is DEFINITELY a correlation to Bitcoin here.

We can be idealistic as long as we remain realistic. The average person is not going to be using chaumian mints. There's plenty of bitcoiners who barely even understand them much less normies.

Bitcoin is the best money but the reality of the world, especially the third world, is that people need access to dollars. If this is true, who cares? By the way, I write this as someone who holds only Bitcoin and 0 of anything else.

Nice and simple

Caught Plur1bus last night, pretty interesting premise and well executed. If the rest of the season can keep the momentum, it could end up a great series.

Promising first couple of episodes, let's see how it goes.

There is no greater freedom than just creating software you need. Just released Waypoint, a Btrfs snapshot creation and management tool for Void Linux: https://github.com/Letdown2491/waypoint-gtk Everything should theoretically work on other distros except the snapshot scheduling system since I only wrote a runit service. Systemd service next, sysvinit and others maybe less likley.

They have $170b sitting in cash and they can't afford to compete? Crazy

😂😂 There is so much to be said about this that I won't say anything at all. Ignore the noise and carry on.

it's true. i try every new client but always end up coming back to primal. even better now that they've fix a lot of the nitpicks i had. still more work to do of course.

Love the alpinist, hadn't seen a snowflake before.

Awesome, looking forward to it 😎

Unlike arch, you won't ever break your system though 😂😂😂

It's funny seeing some people's reactions to software or services you develop. It's no wonder normal people are afraid to use open source alternatives. 1. "Uuugh, Rust? I only use C." You do you, boomer. 2. "Uuugh, X toolkit? What if I don't use X desktop environment?" Tell me you just parrot other people's thoughts in fewer words next time. 3. "Why do we need Y? I can do X in the terminal!" And I bet you jerk off to "I use Arch BTW" memes as well. Not everyone is a super leet ubermensch like yourself 😃 4. "But why use Y instead of X?" I don't have have time write a book on why you're an idiot, so you do you, boomer. We'd have no alternatives if everyone thought this way. 5. "But I want this to do/work like X." Cool, you CAN just do things, you know. Submit a PR or fork it, but better question is, why didn't you already do it yourself? 6. "X is not for newbies." You're an elitist idiot, got it. Free software is free for everyone, not just for people in their mom's basements. Rant over, back to building stuff 🥳

you know what would be great? a client just like Dear Nostr that let's users post anonymous confessions to the app's npub. Spam prevention might be an issue, but I'm sure some good use of WoT tools could mitigate a lot of that.

still doing Qubes?
