OMG my account is locked and all my cryptos have been stolen and erased ... How Tragically Lost My Life Savings in Crypto And Why It's Everyone Else's Fault
Recently, made the sound financial decision to invest my entire life savings into crypto, and what happened next will shock you it was everyone's fault but mine that lost it all.
It all started when got my cold wallet, fresh out of the box. There was this piece of paper inside with some random words on it. figured it was just a packing list or something, but then this very professional guy from CoinBrass called and asked for those exact words. How was supposed to know they were my seed phrase? thought he was helping me!
Later, I double-checked - nowhere in the instructions did it say, "Don't give your seed phrase to friendly strangers on the phone." That's on them, not me.
Fast forward a week, and I'm on a boat I mean, who doesn't bring their cold wallet on vacation, right? had it in my pocket because, you know, secure storage. Anyway, jumped into the ocean for a quick swim, completely forgetting my crypto fortune was literaly attached to me. When I got back into the boat, my wallet was gone, as if the entire blockchain was washed away by the tide. Completely unfair, if you ask me.
It didn't stop there. A while later, I was driving with my cold wallet carefully balanced on the dashboard (like you do), when it somehow flew out the window and landed on a newly-paved freeway. As luck would have it, a vibratory roller was right there, flattening it into oblivion. I tried to retrieve it, but apparently, interrupting road construction isn't "legal" and now can't even look at an asphalt roller without tearing up.
But the true heartbreak? The tattoo. I had my seed phrase permanently inked on my leg a foolproof method to secure my crypto, right? Well, apparently two-toothed tattoo artists aren't as discreet as thought, and now someone (or, let's be real, the entire dark web) must've copied it while was passed out from the pain. Betrayed. Again.
I've tried everything to reclaim my fortune. I even changed my name to Stantoshi Nokamoto to sue people who claim didn't write the original proof-of-work paper while on a pineapple pizza binge back when worked at the N(Not)SA. They laughed, but know the truth.
So, in conclusion, it's clear that the system is rigged, the world is unfair, and absolutely none of this is my fault. I just wanted to be rich with no effort, and now look at me a victim of circumstance, bad luck, and asphalt rollers. Let this be a lesson to all of you: always blame everyone else, especially when it comes to your financial decisions. #grownostr

Right, a good led light is hard to distinguish. 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.

Here's an update on my situation on Android 14
1) open Amethyst and scroll down until a video plays.
2) swipe down from top to check media badge in android system tray -- present
3) close amethyst. And recheck. -- absent
4) restart amethyst and immediately check system tray before scrolling to a video -- present
5) close amethyst and recheck -- still present. Note: sometimes this notification can be swiped off and sometimes it seems to be hung
6) force close amethyst and recheck. Media badge is either gone or present but it's dead and can be swiped away.

I have a media badge stuck now. Amethyst was not running. Swiping did not kill it. Long press in badge and an android control popped asking to "remove this notification from Amethyst".

For my situation, It does not go away. Just retested. Opened amethyst, scrolled through until an MP4 started. Checked the media badge was present. Killed app. Media badge remains.
I have an issue where the content is unavailable and the media badge appears to be trying to load, but is unresponsive to a "kill" swipe (i.e. swipe right/left)

Excerpt from a Q&A w/ ChatGPT.. for entertainment only....
When was Stonehenge thought to be constructed?
Stonehenge is thought to have been constructed over a period of several centuries, with its earliest elements dating back to around 3100 BCE and the final phases completed around 1600 BCE. It's believed that Stonehenge served various purposes over time, including as a burial site and a ceremonial or religious monument. The exact reasons for its construction and the methods used are still the subject of archaeological research and speculation.
When was the area called pot belly hill in turkey active?
"Potbelly Hill," also known as Göbekli Tepe, is an archaeological site in southeastern Turkey. It dates back to the Neolithic period and is estimated to have been active and constructed by hunter-gatherer communities around 9600 BCE to 7300 BCE. Göbekli Tepe is notable for its large stone pillars, some of which are adorned with intricate carvings, and it is considered one of the earliest known examples of monumental architecture and possibly a site for religious or ceremonial purposes.
When were the sumaríans active?
The Sumerians were active in ancient Mesopotamia, which is in present-day Iraq, from around 4500 BCE to about 1900 BCE. They are known for their contributions to early civilization, including the development of cuneiform writing, complex city-states, and various aspects of culture, such as literature and mathematics. Sumer is often regarded as one of the earliest cradles of civilization, and their influence had a lasting impact on the ancient world.
When was Abraham alive?
The exact dates of Abraham's life are not known with certainty, but scholars estimate that he lived sometime around 2000 to 1800 BCE. Abraham is a significant figure in the religious traditions of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. According to the Bible, he is considered the father of the Israelites and a central figure in the Abrahamic covenant. However, due to the lack of detailed historical records from that period, his precise birth and death dates are a matter of religious and historical debate.
When were the Babylonians active?
The Babylonians were active during various periods in ancient Mesopotamia. The Old Babylonian period, which is often associated with the height of the Babylonian Empire, began around 1894 BCE and lasted until about 1595 BCE. This period saw the famous Code of Hammurabi, one of the earliest known legal codes.
Babylon continued to be an influential city throughout various periods of Mesopotamian history, including the Neo-Babylonian Empire, which was founded by King Nabopolassar in 626 BCE and lasted until the empire's fall to the Persian Empire in 539 BCE. During this time, King Nebuchadnezzar II was known for his construction projects, including the Hanging Gardens of Babylon.
So, the Babylonians were active in Mesopotamia from the 19th century BCE through the 6th century BCE, with different periods of prominence and influence.
What happened to the Babylonians?
The Babylonians, specifically the Neo-Babylonian Empire, faced several significant historical events that led to their decline and eventual disappearance as a major power:
1. Conquest by the Persians: In 539 BCE, the Neo-Babylonian Empire, under the rule of King Nabonidus, was conquered by the Persian Achaemenid Empire, led by King Cyrus the Great. The Babylonian Empire fell to the Persians without much resistance, marking the end of the Neo-Babylonian rule.
2. Integration into the Persian Empire: After the conquest, Babylon and the surrounding region became part of the Persian Empire. The Persians allowed a degree of local autonomy but ruled the region from their capital, Persepolis.
3. Decline of Babylon: While Babylon remained an important city, it lost its status as the capital and political center of an independent empire. The city faced challenges like declining population and significance over time.
4. Gradual decline: The influence of Babylon waned over the centuries, and the city faced further setbacks during the Hellenistic and Parthian periods. By the time of the Roman Empire, it was no longer a major center.
In summary, the Babylonians were absorbed into the Persian Empire in the 6th century BCE, and Babylon itself gradually lost its prominence as a political and cultural center over time. The region continued to have historical importance but under the rule of various empires and states.
When were the akkadians active?
The Akkadian Empire, considered one of the first known empires in human history, was active during the 24th and 22nd centuries BCE. It was founded by Sargon of Akkad, who is often referred to as the world's first conqueror and empire builder. The Akkadian Empire was located in the region of Mesopotamia, encompassing parts of modern-day Iraq, Syria, and Iran. Its influence extended over various city-states and territories, making it a significant and early imperial power in ancient history.
List the groups mentioned above from oldest to youngest along with the dates of their major activity.
Here are the groups mentioned, listed from oldest to youngest, along with the dates of their major activity:
1. Sumerians - Around 4500 BCE to about 1900 BCE (ancient Mesopotamia).
2. Akkadians - Approximately 24th to 22nd centuries BCE (Akkadian Empire).
3. Babylonians - Various periods of influence, with the Neo-Babylonian Empire from 626 BCE to 539 BCE (Neo-Babylonian Empire).
4. Persians - Various periods of rule, with the Achaemenid Empire from the 6th to 4th centuries BCE (Achaemenid Empire).
5. Macedonians (under Alexander the Great) - Late 4th century BCE (conquests of Alexander the Great).
These groups represent a historical sequence in the ancient Near East, with each one succeeding the previous in different regions and time periods.
What is the Code of Hammurabi?
The Code of Hammurabi is one of the most well-known and earliest written legal codes in human history. It was created during the rule of King Hammurabi of Babylon, who reigned from around 1792 BCE to 1750 BCE. The code consists of a collection of laws and regulations that were inscribed on a large stele (a stone monument) for public display. It is significant for several reasons:
1. Legal System: The Code of Hammurabi represents one of the earliest attempts to establish a comprehensive legal system. It covers a wide range of subjects, including family law, property law, and criminal law.
2. Eye for an Eye: The code is known for its principle of "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth," which means that punishments were designed to be proportional to the offenses committed. This principle is a fundamental concept in the code.
3. Social Hierarchies: The code reflects the social hierarchies of ancient Babylon, with different punishments for different classes of people. It sought to maintain order and stability in the society of its time.
Who were the hitites and what happened to them?
The Hittites were an ancient Anatolian people who established the Hittite Empire in the region of Anatolia (modern-day Turkey) around the 17th century BCE. They are known for their advanced civilization, including a system of writing called Hittite hieroglyphs.
The Hittite Empire was a major power in the ancient Near East, but it declined over time due to various factors, including invasions, internal conflicts, and the Sea Peoples' migrations. By the 12th century BCE, the Hittite Empire had largely disintegrated. Their capital, Hattusa, was abandoned, and the Hittites faded from historical records.
The exact reasons for their downfall remain a subject of scholarly debate, but the collapse of the Hittite Empire left a significant impact on the history of the ancient Near East.
4. Historical Significance: The Code of Hammurabi provides valuable insights into the legal, social, and economic conditions of ancient Mesopotamia. It's considered a crucial historical document for understanding early human civilization.
While the code is famous for its legal principles, it's important to note that it was specific to its time and place and does not represent modern legal systems. It's a testament to the advancement of legal thought and governance in ancient Babylon.

I tried, it died. Didn't overcome hurdle of inbound liquidity and a separate but related issue of SSL certs and redirection with the web/file server.
So close .. but in the end, spent way too much time cobbling pieces together.

You can create a new private/public key pair but I know of no way to migrate your data from the old 'profile' to the new 'profile'.
The foundation of your identity is that public / private key pair.

Watching the leaves change and rustle in the wind. Cold fronts and preparing for freezing rain. Car heaters and the cold bite of wind. Absorbing the warm sun on my skin, because it feels so good. I enjoy the poetry nature writes. She has no motive, no bias, no care, but the cycles and systems that feed our being feed my soul more than any other thing. Robins filling the sky and the migration of the monarch butterfly, those sites are the sites that catch my eye.
#plebchain, fall is my favorite time of year.

Interesting. How do you feel the field of physics is being repressed or suppressed?

eUTXO.org is such an awesome graphical representation of #Cardano blocks being minted. DYNO pool minted one today and here's what it looks like.
On the site you can expand the individual components and explore what each contains. Link to the block:

Interesting. Question could be phrased how often are you disconnected ... as even if not directly consuming information we indirectly monitor connected devices and listen for notifications .... with that said ... the answer is rarely.

Yes, I tried running an #LND, #LNDHUB, #REDIS, #ELECTRS, #BITCOIND patchwork node system to be able to implement #BTC / #Bitcoin Lightning in "self-custody" fashion. Proved too time consuming for me. Shutting down and moving on.
What were the final hurdles? Inbound liquidity and oddly enough implementation of SSL certificates on a system that also includes a #nostr relay and webserver.
I have discovered that not only are the systems patchwork, the documentation of each component of the system is also patchwork.
For those that have conquered their own true self-bank lightning system, congratulations. For me.. I will move onto another project.
I wonder how #Mithril is coming along over on #Cardano?
Happy October everyone..

You like Bitcoin, weed, zaps and #nostr ... #plebchain, tell me something I don't know about you and #grownostr.
I can get all the Bitcoin Confirmation Bias I need here in 20 seconds but what I want is variety, inspiration, challenge, enlightenment .... not just amplification of a common set of ideals.
Be different.

Gen-X 👊
In the US as we grew up, we wore Moon Boots, high tops, Jams, and Z-Cavaricci pants. Swatch Watches, jelly bracelets and acid wash jeans. Drove Internationals, AMCs, Pontiacs, Mercuries, and Oldsmobiles. God bless Rockies and Ropers. We lived off "Classic Country", "Classic Rock" and Rock and Roll (of which was killed by Grunge and the internet). We watched Speedracer and Battle of the Planets on UHF and had to turn an antenna vs switching apps. And we learned ethics from a Rabbit.
We didn't have cell phones or the Internet and had to learn sex education from dictionaries and encyclopedias. We actually used thesauruses and phone books for businesses and non-family members. And we shared this planet with only 4.4 Billion other knuckleheads.
We knew the world before 9-11, when global warming and climate change was referred to as "greenhouse effect" and we watched Haley's Comment fly by.
Just here on #noster #tonight , #reminiscing #plebchain . What are you doing out there with you 7.8 Billion cousins?

Linux Command Library is an interesting little app for folks new and old to Linux. Interesting to peruse through the content it contains.
Good job Simon Schubert 🤘

And discover Linux.
Good luck.

Depends on the version but product keys are not always necessary. You just need a boot disk (or thumb drive) ..

I have not specifically had that problem and I have never used windows media creator before. There are many variables to a disk swap and your actions will depend on whether you need information from your existing disk, specifications of the computer, version and type of operating system you wish to install, etc. Remember to back up any important files before experimenting too much if you are unsure.
I would ask myself ... Will the machine take the OS I want to install? Do I have any files, settings, bookmarks, programs I wish to keep or record from the existing installation? Can I perform a fresh install (do I have the installation media, drivers, and software key if needed)? Can I transfer any personal files from the old drive after the fresh install on the new drive? .... among other things
Bottom line, if you have files you value and this is new to you, proceed with caution and follow guidance from reputable resources.

Your hard disk was full right? Maybe the error is because the hard disk is full and isn't referencing the USB size. You might try making some space on the hard drive and trying again.
