Why did they blow it up 3 places? Its like they wanted to know it was delibarate or were they hoping to cause more damage than it did?

Yet another invisible enemy. The climate, a virus, and now unknown sabotours going around in the sea destabilizing infrastructure. hurray for invisible enemies

Ever since I focus my energy on Bitcoin only ( no more shitcoin, which brings me more peace ), I am having more time to test things out on myself too:
-
No sugar
-
No alcohol
-
No junk food
-
No shampoo
-
No face wash
FUN to question everything and find the truth.

IME no shampoo, aka nopoo, is hard without spending a lot of time mechanically cleaning your hair, ie submerging in water and massaging the scalp. wrt cleaning it's mechanical vs chemical, ie less mechanical requires more chemicals, less chemicals more mechanical. After a long trial of not shampooing, I went back to shampoo.

I am def feeling the mechanical part! But it's alright for me,as I do not spending lots of time on washing it 👀 did you try egg wash?
Also curious can you tell are your hair prefer nopoo or shampoo？ Mine is def loving the egg part so far.

I didn't try egg wash! I only went the mechanical route.
My hair seemed to prefer nopoo but it would get sooooo dirty and was hard to clean.

A bit ago, I came up with an idea for self-verifying domain names:
Create the domain:
- Generate a keypair
- Hash the pubkey
- Convert that hash to a list of words (e.g. BIP-39) separated by dashes (e.g. word1-word2-...)
- Register that word-list as your domain name (e.g. word1-word2-...-word-23-word24.com). [0]
- Self-sign an TLS certificate with the above generated keypair for that domain name.
Connect to the domain:
- Client connects to the domain name.
- Server provides it's self-signed TLS certificate.
- Client verifies the certificate by comparing the pubkey, the domain name (which is a hash of that pubkey), and the signature in the TLS certificate.
- If everything matches, then the TLS connection proceeds as normal.
This protocol would be added to the certificate verification process of TLS. It would be used in situations where a short/memorable domain name is not needed (e.g. backend servers, Nostr nodes, etc).
One big flaw is that a change to the certificate would require a change of domain name. That would happen in the event of a private key leak or when you decide to upgrade the security of your certificate (e.g. going from a 2048 bit key to a 4096 bit key).
[0] The maximum length for domain names is 253 ASCII characters. The words in the English BIP-39 wordlist are all =<8 characters (and shorter on average), so length shouldn't be an issue.

The weekend shocks my circadian rhythms. As I did a few weeks ago I awoke Monday at 2am, today at 5am. Likely around 5am for the rest of the week. I don't mind it, but I just need to go the next step of convincing myself to workout when I get out of bed.

Hello SN!
Messing around with my side project at UselessShit.co while learning React. I'm nearly done with implementing bulk gift cards creation feature to the generator. The next thing on my plate is adding sticker format with an ability to include a QR code for receiving payments, so perhaps pubs/restaurants could use these stickers to receive tips, as suggested by @ShareblockHolmes
Have a great Bitcoin Tuesday ahead!
