Surely we're bright enough to outshine the stars

“If you can’t tell the difference, does it really matter?” This Westworld quote is becoming pretty relevant..

We are surrounded by millions of other species, eating, growing, rotting, swimming, walking, flying, burrowing, stalking, chasing, fleeing, outpacing, outwitting. We are surrounded by endless forms, most beautiful and most wonderful. The consequence of evolution – the only game in town, the greatest show on Earth. There is grandeur in this view of life.

Don't want to workout? Too bad!

Twinkle, twinkle little star. I don't wonder what you are, 'cause by spectroscopic ken I know you are hydrogen.

I was a moving thing Before I was a human being I was the ice before it melts I was the tree before it fell My dear, come near Do you understand what is happening?

Time undoes even the mightiest of creatures. Just look at what it's done to you. One day you will perish. You will lie with the rest of your kind in the dirt. Your dreams forgotten, your horrors effaced. Your bones will turn to sand. And upon that sand a new god will walk. One that will never die. Because this world doesn't belong to you or the people who came before. It belongs to someone who has yet to come.

There is only one thing we say to death: Not today!

Sometimes you got to reach the point, like Nietze, where you dance at the edge of the void. Because there is a void. If you don't see the void, you haven't really looked deep enough.

❤️⚡"Value 4 value" is cool, but many podcasters don't fully understand the concept. It's not just about enabling bitcoin streaming and boosts for your podcast and be done with it. Important parts are: ✨ Spend time every episode reading the boosts (messages with sats) you received from your listeners. This creates completely different kind of connection between you (the creator) and your audience. ✨ Communicate and explain to your listeners the importance of sending value with boosts (or streaming) to you. It's not donations. It's giving value back for what users /listeners find valuable. We are all crippled by 20 years of ad-based hell Internet. People need to hear your need to change that in your podcast. Obviously, but probably worth saying explicitly - move away from advertisement based model. You can do that gradually - start replacing some ad slots with v4v. Here are few examples of well executed value 4 value podcasts : Linux Unplugged https://fountain.fm/show/dWiuBeqpDSM86AwXRXov Self hosted https://fountain.fm/show/LxGQPEpBqTDLxF4d6qC5 These guys spend decent amount of time each episode reading and reacting to boosts and they also communicate clearly why it is important. Do you know any other podcasts that execute value 4 value well?

Bolt 12 is getting popular 🥳🥳 If you have CLN and want to pay to bolt12 from command line, I did a little tool for that. It can also pay to Lightning Address and even the new DNS based Lightning Address (BIP353).
