 Did @strike send out e-mails to customers saying they can set up 2FA now?
Or were those from scammers? @jack mallers 
#asknostr 
 I did check and it wasn’t there. But the weird thing about the email is that when I first clicked the link it asked me to enter my code for the app, which I didn’t. Then I went to the app to check if the 2FA thingy was there, but it wasn’t. Then, out of curiosity I went back to the email, clicked the link again and then it opened the app. 
And the mail address is a weird one too. Smells fishy, but it is opening the app. That’s why I am asking 
 Cool! Thanks 
 Cool! Thank you 
 Cool. I don’t

 Oh, I love 2FA. 
 Alright. Thanks 
 But it does make it more safe. Or would you disagree with that? 
 You are right. It was the update. Thanks

 “A world run by large machinery is not for dreamers.” - @salazarthur 
That’s what I call a quote 🎩 nostr:note17swux0xasxfkuug57tythsahyjp40dnjhv2732d36hxnuuc9dfdq4tfeze 
 So I haven't eaten any processed sugar (just fruit and honey, but no sweets, chocolate or the like) since the bitcoin halving.
That's a little over 4 months now.
I am experiencing something I didn't expect AT ALL.
I started to DREAM again.
Almost every night.
I asked ChatGPT if this is common and they said there are anecdotal reports about it but nothing scientific.
But it is real, I am the proof.
So I asked ChatGPT if dreaming was important for psychological and emotional wellbeing. It turns out that it's not only important for that, but also for cognitive function.
Following basic logic, we can conclude that populations with high sugar consumption are being emotionally and psychologically destabilised and even dumbed down by the food industry.
That's the real TERRORISM.
It's not just hypothetical.
This is real.
What do you think?
#asknostr 
 Thanks. It was hard because I love chocolate and was a heavy sugar consumer. 
 I really missed remembering my dreams and I never knew why I don’t do anymore 
 Cool. Thanks. I’ll check it out. I started to make my own “chocolate“ with coconut oil, cacao powder 100%, raisins, milk powder and nuts.
It’s actually good. 
 Only if you are allergic to almond 😉

 I’m back on Damus now because Primal is a bit buggy right now and I am very happy to see the progress Damus made in the last months. I like the new view of comments and the status thingy is cool too.

 Of the 10 outfield players starting for Real Madrid today, 8 are black.
That's racist.
We should definitely demand a 50/50 quota of black and white starting players.
Or we could just change their name from Los Blancos to Los Blackos.

 The YT algorithm must be the most stupid algorithm of any social media platform.
Seriously, how can it be that stupid in 2024?

I just want it to learn my behaviour to show me relevant stuff. But it seems it just takes the last thing I was interested and then shows me 80% of that stuff.
I immediately click “don’t recommend channel” when the title says “scary truth” or shit like that, but somehow it is too stupid to realise that…
