Last Notes npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Being obsessed about health isnt' healthy. Sleep well, move a lot, fresh air and as little processed food and exposure to as much natural materials as possible. Don't work in a chemical based industry...agriculture construction, most manufacturing... And you'll probably live a while, healthy. Of course theres always the car Crash, plane Crash, trip and fall lueking on all our shoukder npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter With ever increasing officialdom overreach "to keep us safe" It was interesting taking to someone Who grew Up in former east Germany. Ask me a dumb question like "Where have you just been?" and I give them a dumbass response. Democracies don't ask questions like that, dictatorshios do." He should know. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Talked to a teenager about the days of cameras with rolls of film. Said theyd seen one in a movie. To balance the scales they asked me what riz means. Crickets. #generation-gap npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Hopefully the decisions on dealing with this are based on wisdom and not purely tech-head nous. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Double check they are actually a bitcoiner themselves and not playing straight into Fiat games relying on the system they are trying to leave npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Decentralised communication built on encrypted keypairs has to work.Ditto Bitcoin has to work. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter People need to understand the problem Bitcoin solves. Til then It is an abstract idea. Most people don't do abstract. Dabbling in bitcoin is not an option when you see just how bad Fiat is. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter I pay 10€ / month for data, so 19 for a mission control is alright 👍 npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Puede continuar. That's what the Guardia Civil say when they can't find a reason to mess with you. Cheers npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Not crazy expensive. You may continúe.😄 npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Roughly whats the cost of that tariff?. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter You can Enjoy all those vices on the internet too. ☺️ npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Isnt' wifi a bit old fashioned these days? Unlimited data and hotspots seems reliable and €15/month cheap. I only have simple needs compared to your mission control 😄. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter I used to rig up a paint pad on a stick which works a bit better than a roller. But still a Pain. Wheres a plumber when you need one! npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Crazy type 2 diabetes stats mentioned in the podcast. In practice It is self inflicted but navigating processed food in a busy busy lifestyle sounds like navigating social media. There's a lot of professionals focused on getting the public hooked on whats bad for them. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Is It a Nostr door with a secret Key? npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter A hell of a lot of beer and wine in local bars in rural Spain 🥴 npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Everyone thinks they do a good job though. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter The pressure of inflation is really starting to bite in my part of Spain. Under the pressure of Rising prices and falling real income, people are going to say and do headless things that Will make them cringe looking back. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter To the recent @nprofile…w4kf newsletter, I was harrassed by local bank into going in to a branch to confirm legal requirements. I have under 100€ in the account. They asked me a question and the teller ticked the box...nothing changed in 4 years. They are clowns, clueless and dumb box tickers. Play their game is easy when you have no stake in their stupidity. The worst case is they sanction your account. Ooooh. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Nostr, free speech unleashed, is on the correct path when you read this about attacks from anti freedom governments in bed with corporations. Nostr should end Up with all the info we need to arrive at a balanced view. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2025/sep/18/jimmy-kimmel-stephen-colbert-cancelled-free-speech npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter What? A tiler won't drill a hole in tiles? Wouldn't get a job where I worked. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Explained the limits of a machine we use, including demo, and It performed perfectly. But at the end of their session the customer was dissatisfied with the machine's performance. Not sure what to say, except, oh well, we managed their expectations and they chose to raise the bar to an unrealistic height. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Without an easy onboarding system all glittery Nostr app-ism is flawed imho npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter We are in a crazy world where anyone gives a hoot to crédit agencies Who rated the assets that nearly destroyed the global economy as AAA. It was baffling to me in the US how they use your crédit score as a lever and threat. I Guess if you are wed to the lunatic system, that works. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter So what do you reckon is going on when you "can't dance"? I have written loads of music and love music but like a woodentop on the dance floors. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Some people stack kids to be free. It used to be the way of the rural world for aeons to protect the family unit. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Controlled social media is a scourge on society. Freedom social media is wonderful. X, FB etc are just another example of how people really don't do well with a big stick. Controlling govt, controlling financial giants, controlling military, almost all of them could and should disappear and It would be a net positive, where real leaders emerge and everyone responds with all their energy and smarts, knowing It won't be sequestered npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter I wish I could dance. It's that extra spiritual dimensión just out of reach :) npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Boring is a synonym for not dramatic. It's like reading a newspaper that tells the truth and there is no reason to get uppety. Just deal with the truth. Nostr is a really good resource. Ommmmm npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Couple of observations over the weekend. National grids are extremely complex and adding Intermittent energy to the grid raises that complexity to new levels. With current thinking around tech solutions - intelligent micro grids, fancified substations and more transmisión lines, that means expensive investment which means higher prices for clean energy for consumers. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter They don't need one. Wave the Spanish tax Code at emigrants is enough for effective capital control npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter It's doing the average that keeps the average down npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter The UK tax system isnt' toobad compared to europe. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Maybe refine that to "well meaning people Who don't do their homework and cause chaos." I don't get It, we have access to so much good info. And the oldest meme I remember is" to be successful copy a successful person". It's so simple - with drugs copy Portugal. With education copy Finland...with how not to meddle with birthrates consult china, and so It goes on. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Check out Portugal. Legalising drugs properly/responsible takes more than a line of legislation. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter I think Nostr is quite boring. Which is a positive! The users on Nostr are pretty much straight Up decent folk Who go from day to day being positive without being sensationalist. In other words, this is a platform escaping most of the influences of mainstream media and shit stirrers. Marvellous. 95% of people on earth could end Up on Nostr and be Happy :) #asknostr npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Is there anything more irritating or more sad an indictment of how we have evolved, than being asked in a social setting, "What do you do?" npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter @martybent is on the money with brics and gold. Chances are BTC follows as common currency as trust fails between the parties. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Local council budget is 3.2 m in, 3.8m out, balance made Up from Who knows where to appear "balanced". Largest business in town earns 80x the council budget. Viewed as friend of the town. No shit maynard. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter I "arm wrestle" my 13 year old with my Index finger and beat her. ( Never arm wrestle a Painter!!!) She doesnt believe that one day she Will thrash me in a real arm wrestle regardless of how hard I try. It's called the Life cycle. From cradle to grave is a circle, easy to observé. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter When I started out clients made me lunch. As I got older they offered beers, and the last tip I had was a watercolour painting. At the end of the day though give me a batch of scones and I'd walk through walls for customers😄 npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter The Spanish versión of NASA have endorsed an anti emf coating. Paint, earthing techniques and a decent pitch, there is a business there. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter With the op-return debate has anyone checked history when bsv increased limit to 100kb? It didn't end well. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Perplexity ai makes research a breeze. Following Saylors advice get 90% of legalities ironed out by ai and hand over the polishing to a pro. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter https://youtube.com/shorts/LTTP31kIsxA Next level way to renovate walls for perfect #painting Fair play. Although there are some plasterers around Who can achieve a similar end result with a simpler approach, relying on great skills, there are way more painters Who can replicate this guy's approach and achieve a level 4/5 finish. Definitely a step Up for the painting and decorating trade. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Having been a Painter since early 80's, you need to prioritise indoor work year round if you want to work through the winter. It's so easy to slip into the trap of working outside when the Sun shines, but you are letting people down Who have inside Jobs to do in summer. I didn't make the rules but the sooner you become a specialist indoor worker, pick your trade, the sooner you Will solve that seasonal issue. Not blowing my own trumpet, but I went Up against dozens of good workers like yourself, hooked on painting in the summer, because that's what we were told by the old boys....Many wouldnt have It, but run the numbers and they were destined to always be on the backfoot. Miss a week of work and you know how long It takes to make that Up. It's soul destroying. Good luck be brave. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Can anyone remember Twitter 3 years in? @Rabble ? I recall it being a web developing club ie of no interest to most people. Is that a fair memory or was It more cosmopiltan? Trying to prewarn painters that they might not see much Paint material here - yet. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Is there a way to host a replit app on Nostr somehow? Nostr.build ? I know enough to be dangerous. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Hey @calle are there examples of cashu mints used at scale? Ie what size communities? Thanks #asknostr npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter This is the age where creatives make devs look good. Synergy not exploitation, at last. Sorry devs but you have been a bit like the monks in Name of the Rose for too long..... npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Hey @derekross is there a Shakespeare feed announcing new apps and sites? npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Reminds me of the early days of downhill mountainbikers Discovering stadium lights. Go for It npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter An app but on replit, BEST way to host It so It aligns with Nostr values, and loads superfast. Usability trumps all. #asknostr npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Is there such a thing as a universal lightning wallet that a complete newbie could add to their Nostr profile and be Up for business. Self custody, custodial, irrelevante, just get newbies Up and running to see they can be zapped sats as well as zap others. Thanks #asknostr npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Hope it's not another Maggie tory revisionist tale. I can remember those days, It really wasn't great and people like your guest were exposed as anything but for the people, just saying. Ultimately they have been successful though based on the mantra " there is no such thing as society". Well done chaps. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Deep driving into #bitcoinmining, what a competitive high tech interesting industry. I wonder if It is another form.of speculative dollar attack, sucking in billions in Fiat investment and converting It into BTC. #asknostr npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Got to buy a decent mobile. Android or iPhone if I mainly use Nostr and Bitcoin lightning type apps and browsers and take decent photos for 3-4 years use #asknostr npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Not my experience so far, but It feels like It may feel a little lighter midway through this second cycle. Bitcoin is a harsh mistress. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter #asknostr I can't zap sats from Amethyst. Is there something I need to do to activate my Yakihonne wallet on Amethyst? npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Unpopular opinion but the chances are the vegans in your life are literally mad. Without b12 supplements the diet was downright mental death by a thousand cuts. No Words. Gimme sardines. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter I didn't think there was anything wrong with the term sats until someone asked about the difference between sats and Bitcoin. The person isnt' thick, but when you say "sats" are like the pennies of Bitcoin. Then they ask why call them sats, and you mention satoshi, and Next thing it's a swamp of info. Bits and Bitcoin now makes more sense. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter That came out wrong. You don't need to zap me anything to ask a question on Nostr. If my answer to your question has value maybe keep the wheels turning, but the Nostr V4V approach is not pay to play. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter First they corporatized rugby, Football, trains - havent made a reservation? Sorry no can do. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter https://feeme.com/share/u/7974/72a91830-58d8-11f0-aa15-3949598a7165 I think this my account on fee me. Any questions I can Talk you through then on feeme. Or zapme some sats if you ask on Nostr npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter I was thinking today how Deep It all goes. Once you pay tax you are tied to a sector and that sector is riddled with rules and regulations that Carry threats of further payments if not abided by. The creeping depth and breadth of control exercised by people behind desks is shocking. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Everyone has a plan til you get a punch on the nose - not my Words :) npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/opportunity-cost/ this is a useful bitcoin pricing tool. https://i.nostr.build/nLjzEgTluC9K3Rba.png npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter A Big account in nostr said BTC is at 1000 exahash. Even dumb ai said that was nonsense. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Calling a spade a spade can you spell out what you do? I can't work out even what "loves Digit" means. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Said the unemployed plumber:) the "if you watch me" is spot on... npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter I'm a Painter on Nostr, not a Bitcoin influencer. I have my content mirrored on npubpro, so I dont care if YT like me or not. Come on dude, get with the program. Rumble my arse. ( I enjoy your podcasts but arent you behind the decentralised everything curve? npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Now you need a knife to match. Hair, Shoes, knife, the trifecta. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Unsolicited dms don't work on Nostr. Try sell me something, send me sats to get my attention. Im not greedy, but sending me money is a great filter. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter The world is full of opportunity. The trick is to work out the balances. Work v leisure, income v tax, pleasure v Pain. Invariably the govt is the factor creating doubt and reasons why not. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter If you play guitar, it's all in the tone. You could be the slickest shredder on earth but a less gifted technician with the right tone Will blow everyone away npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter If music doesnt touch you, you should serk out different music npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Where are they going? npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Commute implies routine to please the Man. Not a healthy concept. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Just found out that the tabby Cat I have been feeding the last few months isnt' our tom cat. I suggested we call the imposter Mr Ripley but to add insult to stupidity, it turns out he is a female. Cats really are cleverer than us. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter I was thinking of doing a series of reactions to "Painting tip" videos..but it's a cheap shot really. Having made a few demo videos for the trade, it is a lot of work to present a technique with no fluff. And so easy to find fault. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter In France there was the concept of 100 year mortgages, a home was where you live. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter I once had to act as interpreter for an agent looking for a "perfect property" in rural Spain. Looking for Minimum 80 hectares with artesian well and 1000m2 (9000 ft) buildable property. Luckily for Spain, they didn't find one :) npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter You live in a jigsaw puzzle picture 👍 nice npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter It's humbling to know people Who are Kinder than you are. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Arent most people living in cities and towns in the same dependency boat regardless of age or background? npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Not quite the Green Green grass of home, but could probably still prepare It for a Game of croquet https://i.nostr.build/NKSL74c2uJnb2i5D.jpg . npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter I understand that back in the day, English and I presume most kings used to raise money from the lords and when the gold ran out the soldiers' wages dried up and the king's participation in the war ended. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter The bicycle is a harsh mistress - until you reach the top of the hill. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Thank you kindly, I'll put that in the Xmas box npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter 11000/20 ? You Will be Up all night for weeks zapping that into the economy npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Fair play to you. Keep going! npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter I hear what you are saying but you don't need Bitcoin to have "fuck you" principles. When someone is waving money at you, trying to persuade you to do something you know is wrong or demeaning, or is playing into their power trip, being able to say no is a good feeling - especially when, on paper, you can't afford to say no. But yeah, the economic freedom that bitcoin is shaping up to bring to the masses makes for an easier path to doing the right thing. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Good always wins out else we wouldn' even be here to Write about the Monsters Who have ruined so many lives throughout history. 💪 npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter I think the main point is that time is a long line that joins Up. So we arent on a single point on a timeline heading out to Infinity. We could have been here before 😱 npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter I just added azzamo premium relay to the list in Amethyst under general relays. Is there anything else to do to make the best use of It? npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Yep. I have heard time described as a washing line. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Have you got a link to what you mean? npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter If you have damp issues affecting the internal walls of your House... npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter I believe our ancestors "worked" 15 hours a week to keep body and soul together. The first two episodes of my podcast I show how I blended work, which I actually enjoyed, with projects and travel. Until my forties I was often criticised for not sticking at anything, always off on some adventure. I never had a mortgage or nice things! but somehow I did OK and mastered my craft without chasing the buck. If you want stuff though, you have to knuckle down. But at least on a Bitcoin standard the light at the end of the tunnel should get forever closer, not further away.
