Last Notes
@nprofile…av09 I wanted to migrate from signal to radar on my GrapheneOS phone but there isn't a real path.
When I click the button to launch signal, signal wants to scan a QR code.
Is there something I'm missing or a missing feature?
BTC price usually rallies over bad news. I was hoping for a lil omega candle on the "bad" news. 🤷
Blockchain can grow faster, they said. They will just get cheaper so they'll always just be cheap, they said.
Here's a great idea... How about don't have an opinion and just enjoy your retirement.

It's very custom... Not really useful for anyone else. That's the point.
Like... Do you have a homelab with ssh access and bitwarden with ssh keys and nvpn setup and all of your servers running on a custom subnet etc.
I designed it for me, not for anyone who is using nvpn..
But I spent basically no time making a plugin, ensuring it themed properly, I didn't even ask for those shortcuts.
Coming from macos it's probably not anything special... Apart from the tiling desktop stuff.
I was already on Arch with gnome. I tried tiling plugins and then I even tried to follow a tutorial on setting up Hyprland and just gave up out of frustration.
I still have my old setup on a separate partition, but I've migrated everything over, continued projects, filed some taxes last week and didn't have to jump back to the old installation once. That's mad to me. Connected headphones, casted to TV, taken screenshots...
It works better than gnome IMO. I mean, I guess it's closer to a Linux distro like Ubuntu than what I had before: arch with gnome and everything installed by me. But theming works better, I set up some gestures like three finger swipe across workspaces too.
My laptop would often crash after memory pressure... Probably because I don't know how to set up swap memory properly, but here I have no issues.
I think the ctrl+k shortcut was the absolute key to this whole thing. I would have never learned the key commands without a tutorial mode there the whole time.
Oh and touch wood.... I've not experienced that issue where I shut the laptop lid and when I open it again, it stays blank and won't wake up. Forcing me to restart it.
@nprofile…hl9c just sayin' I would never have something as elegant as this without omarchy 🫨 https://blossom.primal.net/c421ca4f5b8b7dbb3f46439e7d6cb46f9d8034e48879f6f9426bbae965c1dfab.png
A tailscale-like setup using NVPN but with toggles so I can turn it on and off or restart it if it doesn't seem to be working.
Opened a Claude session and typed:
```
/omarchy make me a plugin that looks like the wifi dropdown that lets me turn nvpn on and off and also some toggles to turn on ssh port forwarding for this and that...
```
Then a little back and forth and boom!
21bitcoin.app
I barely remember what I downloaded it for.
Let's fight fire with fire, let's promote and normalize privacy tech like coin joins.
We need to work on the narrative. We need an ad agency like Coinbase used to help remove the fear factor from privacy.
I would have loved to hear the whole thing through but I was driving and they said they were going to send me a code by email or something.
Would have loved to know where that code was gonna come from.
Because your employees are all protected by employee laws and they keep disobeying you so you need to get the government to stop them.
/jk
Its because you want to squash the competition.
Does anyone know if 21bitcoin had a data breach recently?
I got a call from "the police" today, I was driving so couldn't figure out if it was a scam or not yet, but they asked about an email that I've used exclusively with 21bitcoin in 2025.
I forget what their business was already. 😂
But they had my name phone number and email alias.
Guys, I think we're all just gonna need to whine to futo about it when it breaks and hope they'll make their keyboard compatible...
After testing out the stock first of course ☝️
Definition of suspicious: "sometime who knows what's up and doesn't allow us to secretly surveil them and extort them for money"
Tbf, if they detected this and offered us a paid service without the trackers, that would be fine by me.
I think it would be hard to hit the market simply because the cost would be high at first.
Fix it in 8 hours Claude!
Yeah, sort of. I'd use key splitting like seedXOR and Shamir's secret sharing scheme for distributed backups and recovery solutions.
Like as part of an inheritance thing where multiple people or locations can have part of the puzzle, so it is practically impossible to steal, but when your heir needs to use it, they do some treasure hunt and then never need to learn the nuances of collaborative signing or signing a transaction multiple times with different devices -- why force your inheritors straight into the deep end when they will probably just distribute funds to their own setups immediately anyway.
(Actually describing it as signing it multiple times sounds pretty good and easy to grasp).
Did you promote a liquid based wallet? Were any of them affected (e.g. wallet not working)
I don't get it
The readme has a lot of "how to install it" and very little "what it does and how it works"
The only thing you lose is the deniability that a nostr post was sent to a relay by its author.
Isn't this the bitcoin that is owned by Liquid as collateral? No need to deal with customers directly, just find a way to return the collateral safely so that peg outs can work again no?
To be fair, I don't really know how the sidechain works so this is really me probing to learn more.
Lightning is still 10x more complex.
I'm actually surprised there hasn't been a flurry of attacks and bug finds constantly coming out for lightning non stop.
Reservedly impressed honestly.
Its a compromise. You trust a nostr relay to keep something from others on your behalf.
Best case, you only auth on your own server. That is pretty good privacy.
Encryption is obviously the peak, but some things can't be encrypted: metadata, access logs, maybe private messages that can't be encrypted for some reason.
That's the stuff you want auth for.
To be fair, most nostriches treat a relay's ability to perform AUTH as a signal that it is trustworthy. We should probably use some other metric for trustworthiness and culturally make it popular.
I think that people who blindly recommend Multisig give it too much credit and possibly underestimate the security that a single private key already gives you.
It's not a silver bullet, it's a trade off. There are so many ways to take shortcuts like keeping all the keys together or not properly thinking about your realistic attack surfaces.
If you can do Multisig properly, you can probably do single sig properly with more ease.
Imo Multisig is for collaborative custody.
So a bug fix would be a consensus change and a fork right?
Shame about the licensing issue 😢
It's "rental". Rental has existed for many things forever. Housing is a classic example. We don't pretend that because you pay rent that you have the right to stay at a property once the contract term ends.
The issue is that the option to buy a song died in the digital realm.
Weighted Squats. Because you deserve to die.
This is interesting... But I'm sure it is going to duck up my experience using the FUTO keyboard and that's sad, because it is the best keyboard I've used in a long time and it is open source afaik.
Is another "stock" keyboard really gonna be as good?
WHERE ARE THE OPEN SOURCE MODELS ON THIS?
I JUST CANT WAIT FOR THE OPEN MODELS TO BE OFFICIALLY BETTER AND CHEAPER 😇
I spent time streamlining it and learning what was and wasn't in it.
I think I can call it running arch now.
But honestly, yes you are running arch... Imo the only difference between all distros is the package manager. That's it.
They never do. That's why they're a crime syndicate. They rule by fear. Action through fear is not a real choice.
Welcome! And I hope to hear your honest opinions. It is definitely a new paradigm, but one worth fighting for imo.
Yet at the same time, you really want them to learn it and explain it back to you asap because you know it is in their best interest.
At the end of the day, we are being actively stolen from but it is only now starting to hurt more than the thought of doing something about it.
Why are all the pictures from above?
I tried to use it through nvpn as a tailscale like mesh network and between my private home server and my mobile phone, it just wouldn't connect.
My router doesn't allow any sort of port forwarding since they use GNAT so any port forwarding I do would open to another shared NAT that the ISP controls before the internet making it useless.
My phone doesn't port forward either obviously.
Not sure why holepunching is so hard, but I thought that was the whole point of FIPS, to "just work" like magic.
