thrifted this beautiful analog calculator from the goodwill bins last weekend. cost me maybe 150 sats.
analog computing is so wild.
makes me wish i lived through this era, where this thing felt hi-tech.
I still havent figured out how to work it.
Remembering the early twitter days (for me) like 2009-11.
My 50ish friend circle would post like crazy and b-list comedians would drop occasional bangers that got RT'd a bunch.
This filled the timeline.
It was great.
A friend would live-tweet a slow-brewing homeless fight going on outside his apartment window, or their mother-in-law getting drunk at a family game night.
This action punctuated by slogans, evangelistic one-liners, quirky quotes, occasional hot political takes.
It really didnt feel like an attention machine.
It felt like overheard mall-chatter from some coming-of-age 90s movie.
You could jump in and usually were delighted when the box poked back.
Nostr can be so much more than that, but I do hope it keeps hitting these notes.
dude, i just tried to write the same article (before i saw yours) but got totally off track.
I ordered a PC last week, parts wont all come in until may, but have been watching 100 videos on Linux, so this is all ive been thinking about for a week.
Great post.
Planting a pecan tree because i was insecure about not having any nut trees on the homestead.
Now i gotta scoop a shit ton of mulch before the rain comes this weekend.
I have heard so many people who want to patent or copyright lame and bad ideas that the concept of IP law became kind of retarded to me a few years ago.
If it's a good idea, someone will figure out how to steal it anyway.
But it's probably not.
I bought my wife some flowers at this roadside stand last weekend.
I first asked if she took bitcoin, but when she said no I paid in venmo.
Always fun to put it out there, I'll ask again next time, too.
Much like how people get Bitcoin once they see it in action, I believe people will get Jesus when they see Jesus’ Church in action. One of the best ways today the Church can display that action may be through Bitcoin.
