Not sure if they can digitally or if part of the system is creating the noise yourself but your comment reminded me of this article. https://www.sciencealert.com/humans-can-echolocate-like-bats-and-whales-and-we-ve-finally-figured-out-how-it-works

Kansan here, can confirm but, I've never seen anyone over the age of 10 dunk it. Not being judgy just haven't seen it. In grade school most kids would dunk or break it up and put it in the chilli. as an adult everyone I've seen just alternates bites.

False, both my degrees were paid for by the Army and GI Bill. always try to use someone else's money. My Masters classmates were overall above average but most were not to the level of being called smart. Mostly they were good at concocting word salads.

Not trying to out crunch anyone but I just use my arms. It's better for the shoulders and neck and keeps me from lying in one position all night. On the odd occasion I need something else, I just roll up a shirt.

Today was my last day at my employer of 7 years. One of my favorite shenanigans was to post absurd notices to the break room bulletin board, and then listen to the plant gossip about it. Here is my favorite one.

Thanks for the advice. I had a couple of cuts to make and so I tried both with and without oil but didn't really notice a difference. I did adjust the tension before the last cut and that did make a difference. Thanks again.

I'm going to #asknostr because I don't know who else to ask.
When using a hack saw to cut steel do you oil the blade/workpiece?
I always use some sort of lubricant when drilling holes through metal but never really thought about doing the same when cutting. I was working on a small project that required cutting and then drilling a piece of 3/4" bar steel and it pictured to me that perhaps oiling the cut might prolong the life of the saw.

I tried to derive the proof myself and spent too much time on it before I realized I was late for an appt, that's when I resorted to searching for it.

You can also try nostryfied. It allows you to rebroadcast your events to major relays and keep them all on the same page. It also lets you download a backup of all your events.
https://nostryfied.online/
N.B. the backup downloads as a .js file which is flagged as potentially malicious by some browsers so you may have to go through some extra steps versus a regular download.

Can someone explain to me the argument for denominating Bitcoin in bits (.000001 BTC) vs sats (.00000001 BTC)? I can't find a logical discussion anywhere just a bombastic jerk on twitter who keeps advocating for it and want to know more.

Try Ctrl+F5 or Ctrl+Shift+R when you are on the primal.net home page that should clear your cookies for the page and trigger it to log in.

Does anyone know of a tutorial or easy to deploy method for starting a Nostr Relay? Is it possible to get one going on a Raspberry Pi? I've fiddled with it on a couple of platforms but keep hitting snags that feel like they would require more copypasta solutions than I'm comfortable with.

Yes, you can. On Iris; go to Settings, Network, and then select the relays that you want to post to. Anyone you give access to could rebroadcast the notes to a larger set of relays. So it's only as private as your trusted circle.
You could also just DM yourself and it would be encrypted.

So I spent some time today playing with how to create a python script to post events automatically. I didn't really have a goal in mind just wanted to tinker under the hood.
Other than posting temperatures or the price of Bitcoin I couldn't think of a proper use for such a bot, any ideas from the grownostr community?

Ok, Sorry it took so long to get back. I was trapped under a baby but I finally got him to sleep. I created a whole new alby and nostr account to test this out.
You need a nostr key pair set in the alby extension, you also need a nip-05 set up.
It looks like you have nip-05 setup so make sure alby is set up with the keypair
Once that is all done you need to do a hard refresh of primal.net (ctrl+shift+f5 in chromium based browsers)
that should trigger primal to check for a extension login and then off to the races.

I think I had to log in with the alby extension. I posted this reply from there. It's still in development buts seems to be update almost daily.

I wonder if anyone out there can help me identify this flower. I've lived here almost five 5 years and this is the first time I've seen it. I did move a bunch of irises and other bulbs last fall so that must have opened up enough room for it. The seek app just tells me it's in the onion family.
Thanks
