GM. Parents are here still, wonderful.

GM, parents in town to visit for the week. Hug your parents if you still have them.

GM, Ill be posting a few videos from a friend of mine who has a YT channel who has had a few videos taken down.

https://youtu.be/dhjXdCyuN0U Some of you know that I have one foot in the Bitcoin world and one in the Tesla world. Farzad (the channel owner here) worked for Tesla and is now a content creator around Tesla in Austin. He has been dipping his toe in the Bitcoin world over the last few years. Here, he discusses the "What's the problem?" video with its creator Joe Bryan, with Joe clearly and articulately explaining inflation, the big red button, money printing, and why Bitcoin is the only solution to the problem. GM, by the way:)

Take those boots off the shelf Wipe that dust of yourself Even if you've been through hell; you're back It's time to separate the men from the boys And the women from the girls And the tools from the toys Even if you're freaking out: just relax Hey, before it gets too late Before the night is over, before the world's awake Everything will change Hey, I feel it coming on Starting like a fire, tonight you lit the flame Now everything will change Back when it used to hurt Took you a little while just to find the words Losing, well, it sometimes burns, but you keep moving on You've got to grow strong like you're leading the nation Got to make the best out of this situation Get your hands up like it's a celebration And you keep moving on Singing hey, before it gets too late Before the night is over, before the world's awake Everything will change Hey, I feel it coming on Starting like a fire, tonight you lit the flame Now everything will change Now everything will change (Ooooooh) Everything will change (You can talk the talk-talk, but you can't walk the walk-walk) Take those boots off the shelf Wipe that dust of yourself Even if you've been through hell; you're back Hey, before it gets too late Before the night is over, before the world's awake Everything will change Hey, I feel it coming on Starting like a fire, tonight you lit the flame Now everything will change

What does "adjust" mean though. Topics?

Amazing how even simple incentives work. I teach a Senior-level marketing class at a large state school. Over the weekend, my six teams of 4 apiece were tasked with coming up with business ideas based on SpaceX's 75$/Kg to orbit data. They are allowed to send anything they want to orbit for 75$/Kg. I have a bag of dollar-store toys that I use for prizes in class. Once they knew there was a prize for first place (judged by their peers) they went from competitive to ruthless. Covering their mouths when talking, hiding in the corners of the classroom, taunting the other teams, etc. Their final deliverable (along with their content and slide deck) was a 2 minute pitch video that they had to create. I gave no guidance other than what needed to be in it, but they had to figure out how to make it. The winning team was space-based pharmaceuticals, but that wasn't the funniest. The second place team, "SpaceDeath" would launch your remains into low-Earth orbit and have you burn up in the atmosphere for the price of a traditional cremation. Their presentation was hilarious. Anyway, the winning students got to pick from the prize bag without looking. One got a keychain laser pointer, one got a Tesla Matchbox car, and one got a glowing bracelet. The envy in the classroom was palpable:)

GM, just got to the part of the year where it's pitch black in the morning.

Ugh, I dont have any liquidity in my channel, fixing tomorrow.

Try again, I want to see if it works.

Were you trying to zap me? Ill fix this weekend.

I might have GMed already, but I want to ask a question: I have about 100 short clips of me doing guitar lessons from the dark times that I made for my students and friends when they had questions. They are all short (1-3 mins). Should I just post them to Nostr and just stream them? Would you check them out?

Oh, I have multiple nodes. I had this Pi laying around, and wanted to sell it with a full node sync on PM, the Nostr marketplace for a few sats.

GM. I have a used Raspberry Pi 4 running Umbrel and a fully synced Bitcoin node. It has a cooling fan/heat sink and a 1 TB external drive that the node is on On this older hardware, a full sync took about eight days. Core 29, Electrs, and mempool.space installed and fully working. The fan sometimes makes a bit of a buzzing noise, but if you lightly tap the fan it stops. I'd like to get .0017 BTC (approximately 200$ USD) shipped anywhere in the US. You are paying to not have to wait for a week+ to sync. You should be able to plug in and go (after a short sync to catch up the chain during shipping).

GM, I'm syncing a Pi 4 and it's been 9 days:) If you understand this post, I want to follow you.
