The Basics of Understanding and Using Lightning – Epi-3113 Jun 27, 2022

Show notes

Today we are going to talk about the Lightning Network which is a “Layer 2” solution for bitcoin transactions. If that sounds complicated, don’t worry I will help you make sense of it all today. There is a lot of Fud about Lightning, generally this comes from shitcoiners in general but mostly from Bitcoin Cash holdouts who chant nonsense such as, “Bitcoin Cash is the Real Bitcoin”. The reality is Lightning is exactly the type of solution bitcoin’s creator, Satoshi Nakamoto envisioned for bitcoin and its perceived shortcomings. Nakamoto wrote the following in 2010… “The nature of #Bitcoin is such … Continue reading →

Every day I bring you an item on Amazon that I personally use or has been purchased by many members of the audience and I have researched enough to recommend.

Show notes

Every day I bring you an item on Amazon that I personally use or has been purchased by many members of the audience and I have researched enough to recommend. Today’s TSP Amazon Item of the day is Dragro Electric Pruning Shears. These are not a necessity, a good pair of Felco Hand Pruners will do for most of a typical small homesteaders needs. However these have some real advantages. The first is power. Check the video at the bottom of this review, as you will see even thick black locust limbs cut like butter. A brach like that one … Continue reading →

Dealing with the Coming Hard Years – Epi-3109 Jun 21, 2022

Show notes

Today I asked the audience what they most wanted to hear about. There was a ton of typical permaculture homesteading type stuff but more of a theme of dealing with the coming problems, the ones everyone can see. While I am big on solutions over problems these questions and talking points are a great way to handle both. This won’t be a current events type episode, we won’t talk about Bidens Bike Crash or anything like that. Honestly what made me pull this topic was one specific, question comment, from “Hitem20” on our MeWe TSPC Group… I have been trying … Continue reading →

So as you guys know I do a ton with aquatics/aquaponics. Over the years I tried a lot of pumps and have settled on Danner for life expectancy. Yea you have to clean them more often than a dirty water pump but they last for years if maintained.

I recommended he look at the Danner and gave him recommendations on the … Continue reading →
