It was in need of a facelift. #DYNO npub1t4mkysr62f90n5ntq8wa9vfpk0q9a2y532url7vactmpx4vc3g5qph24sy Smitty Dirty hands lately: npub1t4mkysr62f90n5ntq8wa9vfpk0q9a2y532url7vactmpx4vc3g5qph24sy Smitty Missed my Birthday. Looks like I'm 2str. npub1t4mkysr62f90n5ntq8wa9vfpk0q9a2y532url7vactmpx4vc3g5qph24sy Smitty June 2023 - Hurghada, Egypt. npub1t4mkysr62f90n5ntq8wa9vfpk0q9a2y532url7vactmpx4vc3g5qph24sy Smitty Look what I found at Chernobyl! npub1t4mkysr62f90n5ntq8wa9vfpk0q9a2y532url7vactmpx4vc3g5qph24sy Smitty Surface tension npub1t4mkysr62f90n5ntq8wa9vfpk0q9a2y532url7vactmpx4vc3g5qph24sy Smitty Phoenix Wallet up and running as I migrate from Alby. Got phoenixd and phoenixd-lnurl humming along on the VPS too. npub1t4mkysr62f90n5ntq8wa9vfpk0q9a2y532url7vactmpx4vc3g5qph24sy Smitty Today, I set up a #Phoenix wallet and took the Alby address down from my profile. I replaced with a self-hosted BIP-353 Lightning Address I configured on the zapstr.net domain. This address is resolved via a DNS TXT record that contains a BOLT-12 offer. Zaps ⚡ should, in theory and if the client supports Bip-353 addresses, should be routed to my Phoenix Wallet Lightning through the BOLT-12 settlement address. We shall see. npub1t4mkysr62f90n5ntq8wa9vfpk0q9a2y532url7vactmpx4vc3g5qph24sy Smitty I had *Zeus* running but I'm not certain about running a light node on my phone. I just don't use Bitcoin exchanges that much. The overall complexity of lightening for the self-custody user I believe is it's biggest challenge. The user has to do the work and until something exists to make that easy .... And to make it where one doesn't have to commit significant reserves just to open two way channels, self-custody lightening, for the day to day non tech user, is a long way from being practical.[email protected] npub1t4mkysr62f90n5ntq8wa9vfpk0q9a2y532url7vactmpx4vc3g5qph24sy Smitty Thank you. I have been on and off here for a while. I was excited about it but the Bitcoincentric content and some of the content that is beyond my moral threshold pushes me away. npub1t4mkysr62f90n5ntq8wa9vfpk0q9a2y532url7vactmpx4vc3g5qph24sy Smitty Thanks for the thoughtful response and suggestions! npub1t4mkysr62f90n5ntq8wa9vfpk0q9a2y532url7vactmpx4vc3g5qph24sy Smitty I guess #getalby dropped the free wallet so what the best option now #asknostr? I tried building a lightening node once. The remote liquidity is what killed my ambition.. needing to bolster connections with multiple nodes and exchanges. Anyway, what's the new #getalby here? I need to find a new lightening wallet. npub1t4mkysr62f90n5ntq8wa9vfpk0q9a2y532url7vactmpx4vc3g5qph24sy Smitty Checking back in after a long hiatus .... with an observation/question: npub1t4mkysr62f90n5ntq8wa9vfpk0q9a2y532url7vactmpx4vc3g5qph24sy Smitty Checking back in .... I found #Lemmy and am exploring it as a platform .... It is a Reddit alt and seems to have a small group of active followers disenfranchised with Reddit.

I have some old Phillips led bulbs I've had for 10years. A-type with the heat fins. They were designed to last unlike the bulbs today. Leds will last forever, it's the LED power supply that breaks down from heat and poor quality components. They are truly designed to fail as my two bulbs prove. They were making them decade bulbs but now the don't last as long as an incandescent and that generally defeats the purpose of their existence. npub1t4mkysr62f90n5ntq8wa9vfpk0q9a2y532url7vactmpx4vc3g5qph24sy Smitty So we are on a road trip headed to Greenbay .. For some reason all the hotels were sold out .. Checking around I find a place in this town called Manitowoc that I've never been to nor heard of, heck I couldn't even pronounce it. Stay for the night. It's rainy so we don't get to do much there but walk down to the port/pier. Get to see the Badger and learn some about it .. and see the Maritime Museum and the USS Cobia sub display. And, I think the best part was the Manitowoc Coffee house .. nice place. Anyway, my late point .... this happens an annoying amount of time. I've never heard of something, then once I hear or see a thing ... it's like it's been hiding in plain sight .. and I see the thing I'd never seen before time and again. So Manitowoc ... never heard of you before .. now I know about your beer drinking children.
