Wiki begging me relentlessly for a donation.

Sup, sure, just where is the Bitcoin?
(Directly, no intermediate payment processor, just the BTCPay server.)

Tired of extension that need to store my nsec directly on the machine, such as nox2-fox and alike.

So switched to Amber. But not every web client allow log-in with Nostr connect.

In case of such situation there is this one extension: https://github.com/dsbaars/bunker46-extension

Extension is not signed - approved by the Firefox, so to get it working:

1) In about:config, switch to False: xpinstall.signatures.required + extensions.langpacks.signatures.required

2) Then you can install the extension - manually locate the downloaded archive and confirm its installation

3) Then generate a new URI in Amber for the Bunker46 > click '+' icon, then select the option Add and nesecbunker. Amber has some default relays pre-filled here.

4) Click on the installed Bunker46 and paste the string - it's long, so forward it via Signal for example

5) Save and test the connection

It's afaik best solution. Amber still holds the key and Bunker46 does the job.

The creator's best flex is he does not have the npub tied to him on the GH so I can't even thank him here.

Interesting point. I think that it depends on your perception of previous state. If you think it’s evil, you probably want to switch it as fast as possible. Some people can find evil even diesel c...

My perception of the current state is that it's the evil one (the state of finance/monetary/taxation). Yet I don't think that the rest of society does care. As they have no problem enforcing such a system - and let us not assume it's because they are unaware of it, most are aware in some sense.
If they really come into the space even more, the BTC will inherit the bad and not gain much (except for price to the moon).

Most in transition won't change their mindset. So I definitely prefer a smooth ride and no mass adoption at all.

As they say: Bitcoin is for anyone, but not everyone.

yup, it is as you say, when set up that way. Although that caching mode is only supported on Windows. But for Linux, you have to turn it off in the bios, and then it shows up as normal nvme. I did some test. The read speed is 900MB/s, write is 150MB/s. Nothing to write home about. Latency (ping) wa...

How do you mean that?

I don't want the old system to deteriorate, crash even, and as result shift a lot of the power to the current structure of 'hodlers'.

Same as I don't want someone having the older car to experience some fatal failure and force him to jump into the Tesla-like solution. This is what for some the change may be mentally. A slower process is definitely better.

(I do not imply you are thinking like this. Just kinda also hijacking the note with my 2 cents.)
