Can somebody explain for the uncool people like me as to why there are a bunch of rats on nostr today. Help increase my cool level from 1 to 2.

Microsoft, and Windows, and Teams in this case, is so frustrating. Just trying to login, is that too much to ask?

I despise fonts where you can distinguish l from l or even from 1; or distinguishing 0 from O. Coder-friendly monospace, please. Not even for coding, just for reading and especially for trying to enter data somewhere. It kind of matters.

It still kind of blows me away that this "website" exists on #Bitcoin itself (not the ordiscan site, but the orange site shown on the ordiscan page). Though you're likely looking at it on the web, orange site is not on the www, it's on Bitcoin. No www, no DNS. So, as long as Bitcoin runs, it'll be there.

Is the Trump bridge @Donald J. Trump from Truth Social no longer working? I see nothing new in 5 days. Or is Trump taking a break from socials? (The latter would be hard to believe.)

Shapeflation I'm coining a new term right here and now: shapeflation We all know inflation all too well. Since COVID especially, we've been hearing the spinoff term shrinkflation...keep the price the same, just shrink the size of the product. Well, here's a variation of shrinkflation. "Shapeflation" is essentially shrinkflation,... Bridged via Hostr at

Every bitcoiner ought to read Teddy Roosevelt's "Strenuous Life" speech, if for no other reason than paragraph [3] about effort. Essentially, #bitcoin proof-of-work. [3] We do not admire the man of timid peace. We admire the man who embodies victorious effort; the man who never wrongs his neighbor, who is prompt to help a friend, but who has those virile qualities necessary to win in the stern strife of actual life. It is hard to fail, but it is worse never to have tried to succeed. In this life we get nothing save by effort. Full speech:

It occurred to me that when Joe Biden stops interviews and such altogether, Hunter will become the Biden family patriarch and spokesperson.

Rise before sunrise.

I've been futzing with small engines the past two days. My brother is much better than me at this, he said the trilemma with working on mechanical stuff is time, money, and skill. All 3 must be present, else it fails. I asked, "What if someone has a bit of all three?" The jury is out.

I just watched a YouTube video to help me with lawnmower repair. I've gotta say, I get a kick out of Canadians. To me, it's a mix of British wry humor and American wild west. Pretty good mix.

Dealing with VPSs is a hassle and is discouraging. It' s time to quit on that and to work on something less frustrating: broken lawnmowers and clogged carburetors.

I want a novel-to-movie AI generator sooner rather than later. Input text of the novel, AI outputs a movie version.

Is the word "coldplay" going to replace "dox"? Instead of, "You got doxxed," it'll be, "You got coldplayed."

Somehow I simultaneously have a broken bolt on a snow thrower carburetor (requiring a whole new carb) and a broken bolt holding a lawnmower gas tank (requiring removal of the carb). They just don't make bolts like they used to.

Two weeks after berries everywhere, a scouted out mulberry tree now has zero. What's up with that? 😞

@LNVPS.net having issues? I see word of DoS attack a few days ago, still going on?
