I like nostr because it doesn't have all the bullshit from mainstream social media. So if it growth to this point, that I start loosing hours of my life scrolling endless marketing and not generated content, I will stop using it as well.
I don't care that Trump, Elon, Kardashian or the pope are not posting on nostr. I follow what I think relevant for me and ignore the rest. I can already follow Mastodon and Bluesky account from nostr if I need to and I can add RSS feed for topics I like.
I don't need everyone to post on it natively and I don't want everyone, family, IRL friends and boss to be around here either.

Impressive. Would be fine with that if quality is good enough. My Hermes agent using TEE cloud model llama 120B is not really clever, I cannot afford such setup right now but could consider it if I could increase my productivity enough to justify the cost, especially on private informations and documents (like giving a local model acces to all my paperless documents and my accounting, which I would never do with a cloud model, even TEE one.

I really hope you can survive this but this was to be expected, retail adoption bring institutions in, institutions bring regulations, which bring more institutional adoption but also higher cost of compliance and more restriction on individual freedom in the end.

Sure, we are paying the price for it now and probably ever, as it will surely slow down Bitcoin growth, someone (person or company) opting to get an ETF (or worst a MSTR and co) will not do any effort to own Bitcoin on-chain properly and thus will not push scarcity as much as it would be.

I know someone working at the national movies preservation institute (local name is different but it cannot be translated), anf he showed me the rooms full of old films recorded on cellulose nitrate, highly inflatable film that they have to keep in cooled, anti spark, fire proof rooms anf still deteriorate with time. They have equipements to digitalize these but only limited ressources and time to do it, so it's a matter of deciding which one to copy in priority.
The cool stuff is that they also store 35mm movies and project them regularly in the oldest theater in the city (if not country). It was magical to see some old movies in that format on a big screen, like Lost In Translation, Gremlins and soon will be E.T.

Not confirmed by Umbrel or BTCPay dev yet but here is what I did and it looks like it worked on my Umbrel:
PLEASE CONFIRM THAT IT'S CORRECT BEFORE DOING IT BLINDLY
Open Umbrel WebUI, stop BTCPay (right click on icon -> stop).
Update BTCPay to version 2.4.2 if not done already. After update, stop it again as it will start automatically.
Stop Lightning (right click, stop)
SSH into your umbrel from a terminal on your machine (or from the terminal in Umbrel settings).
ssh umbrel@your_umbrel_ip
First I did backup the macaroon just in case, but I guess it's not needed, up to you:
cp /home/umbrel/umbrel/app-data/lightning/data/lnd/data/chain/bitcoin/mainnet/admin.macaroon ~/admin.macaroon.backup
cp /home/umbrel/umbrel/app-data/lightning/data/lnd/data/chain/bitcoin/mainnet/invoice.macaroon ~/invoice.macaroon.backup
cp /home/umbrel/umbrel/app-data/lightning/data/lnd/data/chain/bitcoin/mainnet/invoices.macaroon ~/invoices.macaroon.backup
cp /home/umbrel/umbrel/app-data/lightning/data/lnd/data/chain/bitcoin/mainnet/readonly.macaroon ~/readonly.macaroon.backup
cp /home/umbrel/umbrel/app-data/lightning/data/lnd/data/chain/bitcoin/mainnet/chainnotifier.macaroon ~/chainnotifier.macaroon.backup
cp /home/umbrel/umbrel/app-data/lightning/data/lnd/data/chain/bitcoin/mainnet/router.macaroon ~/router.macaroon.backup
cp /home/umbrel/umbrel/app-data/lightning/data/lnd/data/chain/bitcoin/mainnet/signer.macaroon ~/signer.macaroon.backup
cp /home/umbrel/umbrel/app-data/lightning/data/lnd/data/chain/bitcoin/mainnet/walletkit.macaroon ~/walletkit.macaroon.backup
cp /home/umbrel/umbrel/app-data/lightning/data/lnd/data/chain/bitcoin/mainnet/macaroons.db ~/macaroon.db.backup
Now is the important part, to remove all macaroon files:
rm -f /home/umbrel/umbrel/app-data/lightning/data/lnd/data/chain/bitcoin/mainnet/macaroons.db
rm -f /home/umbrel/umbrel/app-data/lightning/data/lnd/data/chain/bitcoin/mainnet/*.macaroons
You can check that all .macaroon and the macaroons.db are gone
ls -la /home/umbrel/umbrel/app-data/lightning/data/lnd/data/chain/bitcoin/mainnet/
Return into Umbrel WebUI (you can do it with a command, but I like WebUI to see when it's done and because I'm not nerdy enough):
Start Lightning (wait that it starts, check that it works)
Start BTCPay Server (wait that it starts, check that it works).
Done. I my case everything worked after that. (i tested RTL, worked without restart. If other apps are not working, try to restart the app first).

They fucked up with the wrong Bitcoiner.
It's too late for him, her, they. Even if they would decide to return the money, they could not do it. Sending back to the original address would just let someone else steal it, and as anyone is able to get the private keys eventually, it would be very hard to prove that you were the original owner of the key. If you control the previous address in the chain you would still have to prove that you didn't sell the bigcoins to the owner of the hacked address. Ironically, those who withdrew directly from a KYC exchange to the leaked address could claim it somehow. But anyone unless it happens, there is no reason to talk about it.
Is there any insurance cover Bitcoin thief in self custody ? I think I have seen such service once, wondering if they had a close in case of massive "bug" or hack like this to exclude it from the coverage.

You better use Sparrow, Electrum or a reputable signing device than a shell scripts prompt to mistake that you figure out year later you didn't use standard derivation or worst use a bigger script and end up stacking sats in limbo for year. Still better to check the setup with multiple softwor hardware thus, chances a random Bitcoiner doing is own script do a mistake is still way higher than chances of a (formerly) reputable company with many engineers and open source code checked by anyone did a mistake, let's be realistic.

You can generate your mnemonic phrase of 12 words by hand with dice but you still need a signing device or a "wallet" like Sparrow or Electrum (Tails OS booted on an old offline PC is a good option for that) to derive a private key and address to get an utxo. Then yes you don't need anything else to just keep the bitcoin, make sure your backup your mnemonic phrase and passphrase somewhere safe from thief or destruction.

I stopped my OpenClaw due to API token cost that was unbearable. Do you have several hundred $ of monthly budget or you manage to get it work with a fixed subscription ?
Or maybe it's working find now with lower cost model like kimi K2 or similar. Ideal an encrypted model would be better, waiting to see if Proton offer an API within the base subscription (not per token, even with a cap per day or 6 hours, still better to keep the cost controllable).
What about security ? Is it somewhat safe to run OpenClaw ? Isn't it better alternative ad good in usage and better in security ?
That's the 2 points the block me to use it again.
