Use you ISP router only as a modem/bridge and have your own router handle all the traffic. I prefer pfSense View quoted note →

You can not become influencer on Nostr and that is so refreshing
Just came back from Spain
I am stunned with how bad they are with english - it’s embarrassing
People working in hospitality not only do not speak any english but the level of arrogance and how unwelcoming they are is just ridiculous
On the other hand - people not working in hospitality are so friendly
I don’t think I will be coming back
Very good post on challenges of lightning ⚡️
Go read it if you care about scaling #Bitcoin

Stacker News
Rethinking Lightning \ stacker news
Over the last few months it feels the bitcoin community has gotten more and more jaded on lightning. To be honest, this is for good reason, back in...
If you come at the King, you best not miss
There’s literally nothing in this world that you can own as you can own #Bitcoin
It takes a bit of understanding of cryptography to fully grasp this fact but it is THE FACT
I’m old enough to remember - my first #Bitcoin wallet was paper wallet
On one side I printed private key and on the other side the address
By today’s standards it is as reckless as crossing the highway with eyes closed
I held #Bitcoin from 1.000 to 300
I held it from 20.000 to 3.000
I held it from 69.000 to 15.000
I will hodl it from 1.000.000 to 400.000
Because I know what I hold
In reality there are only two ways one can beat corrupt and incompetent political system.
1. With fire and violence
2. Choosing not to fight but instead build new and better system that will organically overcome the old one
First way is faster, requires greater energy density and comes with much more risk
Second way is slow, painstakingly slow, perhaps requiring more energy but spread across much larger space and time which makes it needing lower energy density and much less risk
The problem is - we all jump to the first solution because we are emotionally driven in the moment and for us to come to the second solution requires contemplation, greater ideals, great ideas and indestructible will
For me, because I have no intention go down in the mud and fight with pigs, #Bitcoin is the best weapon to beat them and change the system
But it comes with realization that not every man deserves to be saved nor will be saved because stupidity and egocentric incompetence deserve to be left to starve
Bitcoin is for anyone but not for everyone
The incompetence of political elites is brain damaging
Travel with toddlers they said. It will be fun they said.
LOL
The worst idea possible
Happy Genesis Block day plebs
We are riding on an unstoppable train
#Bitcoin
Happy New Year everyone, hope you all have a great 2024
If you get to taste Bulgarian wine don’t miss this one. It’s combination of Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot.
Very rich bouquet, complex and deep but smooth enough to leave long lasting pleasant finish on the tongue 

Hear me out.
What if this nonsense with inscriptions and BRC20 tokens and all this BS goes many levels up.
What if it attracts stupid number of stupid people who start inscribing stupidity en masse and the fees go beyond thousands of sats per vByte and transactions start costing 100s and 1000s of $$
Do we have any ideas? Is anybody thinking about it?
Soft fork? Kill OP_RETURN completely?
If I am not mistaken OP_RETURN was invented to discourage spam but I’m sure no one could anticipate this level of stupidity.
Or is not anticipating this level of stupidity the stupidity itself?
Don’t really care if the world adopts #Bitcoin as reserve currency
It already IS reserve currency for me and my businesses
When did you get really lost the last time? Or did you ever?
I remember few tears ago I got lost in a forest with my wife while hiking. The worst part is when you get lost in a dense forest every direction looks the same and it was a dawn so no sun to guide. Off corse no phone sognal. And the fear of the night 🥶
I can relate. Running businesses and having kids leaves so little spare time View quoted note →
Every time I go to the bank I leave with the same impression
THEY ARE SO FUCKED
#Bitcoin is gonna make them obsolete
Bring more diversity to Nostr because people are ignorant sheep and we need to lure them with sweet treats before we shove an orange pill down their throat View quoted note →
