After being off Twitter since May 2023, I created a burner account to follow news leading up to the US election that wasn’t covered elsewhere. In the few weeks that I’ve had it, I’ve received a few new followers each day, all clearly bots/catfishers. It’s so refreshing coming back to nostr. Twitter is a dump.

I’m loving running my own nostr relay on @Umbrel ☂️. I don’t write a lot of notes, but I like knowing that they’re always there on my personal server.

I’m strongly considering a guided multisig like Nunchuk or Casa. My main rationale is that I want my family to have a better chance of success at using our bitcoin if I’m not around. Does this make sense? I know multisig can increase risk without much security benefit unless you want more than one person to hold keys. I don’t want to overthink things here.

Thanks @Mags. As a fellow Canadian, I agree. I also feel strongly that Canada should make better use of its excellent nuclear industry and become a leader in clean power generation. This lends itself to bitcoin mining and AI data centres. Ontario is doing well embracing nuclear. The Darlington plan is undergoing refurbishment. I think they’re doing more in Pickering and Bruce. The uranium mines near Lake Athabasca in SK are some of the best in the world. I hope the rest of Canada can get on board too.

A letter to the editor by RFK Jr was published in The Economist this week. The topic: bitcoin’s positive impact on energy supply and renewable production. @Daniel Batten

I’ve purchased two paintings from @🟠 isolabellart. Amazing art and he’s a pleasure to work with. View quoted note →

I love seeing this stuff on nostr. I hope we can bring @npub198aw...sv40 over here someday. View quoted note →

Does anyone have experience with bitcoin-friendly web hosting? I am looking to set up a small personal website. I've heard of OrangeWebsite and BitLaunch, but I'm sure there are others. I'm willing to pay a bit extra for simplicity/convenience.

When you’re losing weight, the excess fat is metabolized. The primary metabolites are CO2 and water. A lot of this is breathed out. Using this model, it may be helpful think “keep moving, keep breathing” if you’re on a weight loss journey.

Another @🟠 isolabellart original to add to the collection. These will be going on the walls of my new office soon!
