Had the entire weekend off socials, and pretty much the internet. Just spent time with the family and friends, got drunk, played games, went to the pub, ate nice food, went for walks, spoke to strangers, watched some football. It's refreshing to step away, but it's also refreshing to "login" again. Other peoples voices, other situations, random encounters can spur new ideas - not in my case, haha, just a freshness, as we can all become a bit narrow minded/ultra focused or stale sometimes. And it's fun and nice. Fun is good.

Wow. This is the best article I've read in the couple of months I've been on nostr, and it's very much made me change my zapping. I didn't really have a gauge or think about what I was zapping (usually just 10s and 100s), showing very little consideration for the value or the person behind it. This article elevates the conversation (and my understanding) towards appreciating longer term "culture" and true value. Even to the extent that I will consider putting down some longer form notes/articles rather than just short form throw away comments. Please note: I am proper skint (I mean proper skint). Zaps are not at my whimsical disposal. Thank you for writing this.

Yo yo yo lovely @YakiHonne - how does an ejit 🙋‍♂️ connect their already created yaki wallet on desktop? I created it on mobile (works a treat), then all I get on desktop is "create new Yaki wallet or connect NWC or connect Alby". Am I missing something?

The feeling of 'almost' closure is refreshing. I'm getting on it.

The hardest workers get the least. Your time and energy are precious. Don't do it to yourself. Work smart, you'll be rewarded.

Don't do what you don't have to do (yes be selfish). Close the loops you've opened (do that job, pay that bill, learn that thing). Get creative (a 1000 times over if necessary).

Hey ##nostr #plebchain - somebody please school me on relays. Specifically: • Why do they drop in and out so often? • Why would I see a reaction to a post (e.g. replies, likes), but not recieve them (or they come through hrs later)? • Which are considered the best relays? • Is there any good practices to improve performance? This is not shitting on this place or the tech, I love it here. I'm keen to understand the architecture and improve my experience. Cheers.

Hey @AQSTR where do you fetch 'Eligibility Requirements' from? Mine are all wrong. I want to take part in tasks but can't cos of false numbers.

A chilly, mildly spooky drive home tonight. I love pulling over for 5 mins, to feel the emptiness, freedom, stillness and to look at the stars.

Hey @YakiHonne - how come my dashboard and wallet show 0 zaps sent, when ive definitely zapped (profiles and notes), also the 'points system' shows I have. I appreciate this might not be a client based issue, but you guys were brill with my previous query, so you're my go to now 🙏✌️

Newb take: the best way to learn about crypto(both), blockchains, privacy, and web3 in general is to jump in and learn on the job. Ideally, with small amounts of money, careful with your ID and what you connect to. But, make mistakes, inefficiencies, go down the wrong path, play, have fun. The community will help and in a fee month what seemed unfathomable will become everyday, the next step. I'm really enjoying the 'space' and community, making mistakes and the learning. Then repeat. Fuck knows where/what I'll be doing in a year. Peace.
