Unexpected musical cross-over: Smashing Pumpkins cover U2’s Zoo Station. Works surprisingly well!
Nice to see Jimmy and James in the line-up here, too. Despite them being a staple through my college years I never actually got to a Pumpkins show, though was lucky enough to catch Corgan with Zwan in London, in 2003.
In SpaceX it would seem Elon has assembled one of the highest performing engineering teams humanity has ever seen. Everything that crops up on each flight test is ruthlessly pinned down and remediated. Just a joy to watch.
Sadly, never traded $NVDA but did catch $ARM. Beautiful move in chips.
Nancy Pelosi is of course minting it (further).
A laggard she has a bunch of is $PANW, so anticipating further ludicrous profits from corruption I did add a few September 330 calls today in the $11.40s.
Is anyone posting trades on Nostr? It’s one area X is very strong. #stockstr #trading
So would love a Futurebit but don’t really want to deal with the thing being impounded by border goons on the Northern wall (and ending up on yet another “list”).
Is there any home mining kit available from distributors in Canada?

@Coinkite (old npup) back in my Ledger days I used to factory reset periodically to prove I could rebuild from seed.
Am aware you can’t “reset” a Coldcard once PIN etc. are established but can you rebuild the signature from seed to validate?
Don’t have my device to hand to check right now, just curious.
Things that really are as bad as they’re made out to be #1: The Media.
My heart is doing what it’s designed to do in Fatherhood, thanks very much, and I am much the better for it.
Yes this is real (can Google it, but I won’t grace it with a link)
Happy Mother’s Day, mothers. Our four year old added mini-marshmallows to the pancakes this am. May your day be similarly sweet! #parentstr
Today marks the 25th anniversary of the day Gordon Brown announced he would be selling British #gold at what proved to be a market low not seen since 1971 when the US abandoned the gold standard. What on earth was he thinking?

Ipswich Town, Premier League. Well done lads!
Musicians of Nostr, what’s a good minimalist setup for just recording guitar (acoustic or electric) and vocal. Good mic enough for both into a laptop / Logic Pro? Is it necessary to record instrument and vocal separately or no? #songstr
Poured myself a good glass of red and finished The Hydrogen Sonata tonight.
I salute you, Iain M. Banks, and wish you well in the Sublime.
From the excellent @WallStreetSilv on X. How did we get here? I am glad just edged in under the current collapse with a home and a family, but it’s not pretty out there for the younger folks I work with (mostly 2nd last row). 
My eldest is ~4 years away from college and I’m curious if there’ll be any point whatsoever by then.
Seems perhaps too soon for us to be through this and out the other side.
Bought $TSLA @141 in the fiat account; long view maybe not as pie~eyed as Ms. Wood, but still great value here.

Peter Brandt, fighting the good fight against vaccine injury and Bitcoin FUD. Have always valued his charting.

Bought $OKTA at 94. I like a drop to close ~half a big earnings gap which we now have (following Feb’s pop).
Obvs down with the general market but should do well when we bounce. Favourable mentions at various tech conferences I attend.
I can’t help but presume all crisis headlines are straight fuckery at this point.
Here come the apple blossoms! Love this time of year. #flowerstr #homesteading
Mogwai magic. Had I persisted with my recording, I would have wanted to sound like this.
