Last Notes npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Awesome. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Is this your project? npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat I tried choosing a model that's more humble than Claud Opus, but couldn't do it on my phone. I can try again when I get home. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat I like Vibram. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat I was talking to my brother about AI at the DMV and some random dude asked me if Claude was a good tool for his ClawBot to build websites. 👀 npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Welcome to Internet in a closed society where neither free speech nor privacy is permitted. 🫤 npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat 😂 npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Thanks for clarifying. Is this a video game reference, or something else? npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat I'm here because I'm against the fractional reserve banking governments use to rob our children and send them to war. That's the freedom I want. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat I agree, but Cake doesn't collect KYC information though. This is why I am willing to test it, but I am not willing to test the Wallet in Rumble. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat I feel like I have a better than average depth of knowledge in regards to Bitcoin, but to be honest, I have no idea what the hell these laws are. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Cool. If the Internet ever dies, maybe we can use it to mine Bitcoin by hand over meshtastic and sending messages with pigeons. 🤠npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat That's what I thought. I could just run an old version of Linux if I needed to. This ID hysteria is concerning. It seems more likely to put more people into Gulags and concentration camps than it is to protect the children. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat What's the best way to break this law as an act of Civil Disobedience? npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat We're getting more people. Most of them don't know anything about Bitcoin. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Oh wait, I don't think they have an API. I think BTCpayServer does and I'm pretty sure zaprite does too. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat This is an awesome find. I tried the Cashu extension on LNBits when it was a thing and accidentally double spent like 30,000 sats. It wasn't a big deal. I was the only one using it and I knew I didn't have those sata anymore, but it taught me fractional reserve banking can happen by accident. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Cool stage. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat I also wrote some code with cards that highlight the features, but it's not ready. I thought about throwing it on my GirHub, but I think it would be better if I made a pull request to Bitcoin Rocks site, specifically this page: npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat I wanr to promote Square by making a testamonial video. The idea is to go over Bitcoin Rocks Bitcoin vs. Visa website and then show actual footage of me buying a cup of coffee and highlightibg the fact that merchants can save fees. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat True. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat I found some books by Seth Godin at the thrift store. I'm reading The Dip. It's making me re-think marketing. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat My son is taking guitar lessons and is into Nirvana now. It's kind of weird for two reasons: npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat #Bitcoin is not a currency created by fiat, nor an investment to be held in an exchange to be captured by executive order. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Interesting. I didn't even know this was a thing. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Of course, we are assuming you followed best practices and didn't play any miney more with the buttons on your Cold Card. You should be concerned about bad entropy. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat True. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat It's true. The crowd wants ads for "the next Internet." npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat I do. I made one of the original nostr videos, but it's outdated now. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat I'm not surprised. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Gross. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Does anyone remember the name of the wallet that let you receive lightning tips on Twitter circa 2019? npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat https://blossom.primal.net/9dff1fc129736880808057df9a8fab9cf9eabc992f8045b95a538921bffc63be.jpg https://blossom.primal.net/9dff1fc129736880808057df9a8fab9cf9eabc992f8045b95a538921bffc63be.jpg npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat It could totally be like the Four Hour Workweek by Tim Ferris, but I using an AI assistant to manage stuff from you instead. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Have you seen this nostr client? npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat That's what I use for my BTCpayServer. It's one of the main reasons I think it's better than Aqua. 😀 npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Thanks. I'll check it out. Anarko has a great voice. I hope he reads his poetry out loud. 😀 npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Been a long time since I read it. Sometimes, I listen to Jack Kerouac poetry on Spotify. We need more poetry. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat I can help. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Wow, that sucks. Let me know if you need some help posting your blogs on nostr or with adding photos or using Markdown. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat I didn't know you could import Substack posts. I tried to build that a few years ago, but I don't write code well enough. 🤣 npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Here's the thing, in the early days people accused Bitcoin of being useful to terrorists, drug dealers, and child pornographers. Andreas used to argue against this, but most people thought Bitcoin was only for criminals back then. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat I forgot all about this wallet because I use Bull Bitcoin's wallet instead. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat I saw this at a restaurant yesterday and now I want to make my own, but with a different sign. 😉 npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Metal working, but I already have too many hobbies. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Seriously. I find women younger than 35 unattractive. I'm a happily married man, so I 'm not on the market, but dudes in their 40's dating women younger than my daughter are repulsive. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat #Bitcoin is dead once again, but the penny is dead for good. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Thanks. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Oof. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Yeah, I understand most people still don't want to scrap the government for some reason, but can we get at least get a Constitutional Convention? npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat I've been writing about the Bitcoin for sats on the lightning network since 2019. I've spent the last two days working on my cover letter for open sats, but am scared to death of missing a typo. 😳 npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Time is more scarce than Bitcoin. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat I'm definitely listening to this one. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat It just means we need better education. If people think bitcoin is a CrYpTo entrusted to a financial institution that gives them permission to buy dollars and fund the bankrupt nation state, why would they buy Bitcoin to pay taxes to a nation state that can do nothing to protect them? npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat And by stack, I mean "BTC ETF." npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Imagine panic selling your stack because Bitcoin has no bailouts from the perspective of a fiat maxi who has never heard of the secret message hidden inside the scriptsig hex patt of the Genesis block. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat https://www.pcmag.com/news/substack-newsletter-platform-data-breach-saw-phone-numbers-emails-exposed?test_uuid=04IpBmWGZleS0I0J3epvMrC&test_variant=A npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Good thing that Iranian currency is quantum resistant. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Hopefully it's 58k till payday.🤞 npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Me too. One guy asked me if I think it's possible for him to buy a whole coin for each one of his kids. I said I don't know, but he has an opportunity now. Here's the thing, if you don't understand #bitcoin, you will probably panic sell all your sats. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Sorry I haven't posted much lately. I'm trying to get a second job. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat I don't remember exactly when I made my first nostr key, but I'm? going through some old YouTube videos. I made my first note tutorial on December 16th, 2022. I remember making a key after hearing about it on Citadel Dispatch, but there were only dozens of us. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Look on the bright side. 😀 npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat It's true npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat 😂 npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Yeah, there was some non-nostr login in one of the earliest versions, but I don't remember what it was. The problem is most non-technical people want to hit the Google button. 😔 npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat I thought it was some scam. I think I got it confused with another post. 😂 npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Damn! npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Wait, this is not what I thought it was. 😳 npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Thanks. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat I wish these donations made the news instead of the stuff I read on Bitbo yesterday. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat I don't know who that guy is, but he's on my team. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat That's what I think. I also heard Cyan Banister say this on a podcast too. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Seems so simple, but so hard for so many people to understand. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat What's Simon Dixon's npub? He says he has one, but he doesn't use it much. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Nice npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat @nprofile…wrn5 Thanks again. 😉 npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat https://image.nostr.build/f7d6690549ae8aaaa7769225db3c90cdb7944c0d8fdcfc691e4fe59dfed1a943.jpg npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat I listened to Ross Stephens' newsletter on #Bitcoin Audible last month and realized I was one of the people who did not present himself well. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat https://wavlake.com/track/17e0d37c-8841-42dc-999e-38e47cc21368 npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat It's why I don't like watching videos. I know it's possible to disable ads on YouTube, but Rumble has KYC crypto wallets. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Is it possible to turn ads off in Rumble? npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat I never used silk road, but I did try Open Bazaar a couple times. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Lol. I just noticed my typo.😂 npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat 👀 npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat It's about education. I think the main issue is that the quantity of money theory is not taught in schools. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat That's hilarious. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat I tried it yesterday. I didn't realize I could create permanent rooms. That's super cool. I also like the screen sharing functionality. I could totally use this for a workshop. I just need to teach people how to use nostr. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Thank you very much. I need to fix my zap button. 😳 npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat This is obvious I retrospect. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Food morning. Does Rizful require KYC info? npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat I'll listen to the next one. Then I'll share my thoughts. You're a great interviewer though. You also sound like the cab driver in Pulp Fiction, but I'm sure you get that a lot. 😅 npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Are you married? I'm on a Bitcoin standard, but my wife still gets paid in fiat. It's the hardest part for me. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Does he accept sats over the lightning network. I donated ten bucks to Gary Johnson and some dude from the New York Times asked me about it. I would prefer to use lightning now. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat I think pull ups help, but have nothing to prove it aside from anecdotal evidence. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat I hate this so much. Always have, always will. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Great interview. I began listening to WBD on episode 2. I tried his crypto trading course for a month and got lucky with a small amount of money. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Agreed. I wish I could set up a lightning address for all of my bills. I know it's possible. You must know it too. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat I noticed my relays were not working. Sorry. I had no idea. npub1marc26z8nh3xkj5rcx7ufkatvx6ueqhp5vfw9v5teq26z254renshtf3g0 Marc Kat Never thought of it that way, but you're totally right.
