Are you an #Ancap?
Wake me up when you’re ready to guillotine your politicians and then I’ll take you seriously.
The death penalty belongs to the people against the parasites.
It’s your belief in what the parasites have written down as law that is holding us all back.
#BBTG
Fuck the French.
We can learn from those socialist retards.
What we can learn is anyone with any collectivised power probably deserves to have their heads lopped off.
I hate the State being wrong in whom they apply it to.
But I won’t shed a tear if statists are ended without due course - being part of the state is reason enough to chop cunts heads off.
You don’t think any message would be effectively sent with 1000 heads in baskets?
Come on mate. Show me the incentive I’ll show you the outcomes.
1000 heads in baskets is a fucking powerful incentive.
I agree with your second half. I’m not saying that is problem solved. I’m saying if people of the West want a new class of parasites that only comes after the fear of god is put into the current class.
Don’t make the mistake of thinking we have to just chop heads of the bad ones. Every head that rolls adds to the fear and self-selects for better politicians that don’t want to lose their own.
They’ve killed and ruined enough innocents that I’ll feel nothing when they rightly cop the other end of the stick.
This is about moving Overton windows in different directions and I have zero opposition to moving the window against the current crop to resignation or head in basket.
Let’s see how they react. Not like we’re losing anything with career politicians on the block.
When was the last time someone from this modern system got their head cut off for anything?
I can’t even think of it.
Not in my lifetime.
I’m SO ready for these cunts to get lopped.
My bad is much lower than most but I’ll take the higher bar of these cunts ending for now.
The reason is - she’s always high.
Go watch her over time. She was always high as VP then the coup against Biden happened and she sobered up for 2-3 weeks and now she’s back on it, too stressful for her to deal with.
THC Oil.
Slow acting and one easily builds tolerance to it. She was abusing the fuck out of “prescription” weed and is again.
Explains the cackling, and the braindeadedness, the attempts at profundity and the slurring whilst remaining relatively cogent.
Mark my words. Kamala is off her tits by any medical measure but gets by using her femininity as a shield for how high she actually is.
I don’t see what you added beyond my point?
You didn’t acknowledge her clear and obvious drug use. You tried other explanations without calling out the obvious.
She’s high as a kite. She’s not ripping cones; she’d be more up and down than she is. She’s not on any stimulants, that looks different.
She’s not an alco - she’d have bottoms and we’d see them.
She’s on medical grade weed and the only way to stay at her level is oil which acts on the liver.
She thinks she’s fooling everyone but anyone who knows, knows.
Those that know are majority Democrats. Not her opposition.
You might be too straight to know what THC Oil abuse looks like so I’ll give you the benefit of that doubt but that’s clearly what Kamala is doing.
Getting ready to gift my old PS4 to nieces and nephews aged 5 thru 10.
My first computer had a bunch of games on floppy disk, then my first proper computer with a CD drive came with no games and I remember I was fuming I had all that horsepower and nothing to use it on..
So I’m updating everything on the console, all the downloaded games, throwing in a bunch of PS4 discs, and want to load them up with things they’ll enjoy so that when they get it they’re good to go.
Any recommendations on PlayStation games for kids in this age group - boys and girls? #asknostr https://i.nostr.build/AglBweVV3dYZsm4S.jpg
Not concerned only because I expected this to come. When you understand game theory properly applied you can see all sorts coming and pre-prepare so that you’re not reacting to weird and stressful situations.
On Damus. We might get Outbox in 2033 after Will has pulled his head out of his arse where it was stuck building Notedeck that he and 4 other people were using.
Women think they want kindness until they get disappointed with the physicality of it and yearn for strength.
They want half beta’s / half alpha’s without realising they’re looking for non-existent unicorns.
Compare the damage from Typhoon Yagi which just hit Vietnam to Hurricane Helene.
Yagi hit a high-density place with next to no regs where facades were blown off buildings with high winds (because next to no regs) but there was very little flooding. Vietnam doesn’t really “believe” in climate change, theyre told it’s happening but they’re not banning plastic straws and coal power and shit like we are in the West.
What I see in the US is massive flooding in what looks like a superstorm. I’m not claiming I’ve looked into the difference in intensity between them but I see the difference in outcome and the country that isn’t trying to excuse everything with climate change seems to be dealing with a normal seasonal storm whereas the country taking massive subsidies from taxpayers for climate change got absolutely battered.
The US has tech to seed these storms. Vietnam wouldn’t do that to their people - they’re not entirely financialised like the US and don’t want the fallout.
I’ve got my tinfoil hat on agreeing with you here.
What do the ReplyGuy spam accounts all have in common? They don’t have NIP05.
Who else doesn’t have NIP05 - brand new Users with Zero WoT built up who don’t know NIP05 is a relevant thing here. Ie the bottom of the foodchain on #Nostr.
Everyone with presence on #Nostr has NIP05 whether through some paid service or their own domain. Users setup NIP05 before they setup their zap wallets in most cases.
NIP05 imposes friction and cost. It’s the equivalent of proof-of-work here where you can pay for it or DIY.
Requiring NIP05 puts the onus on paid providers to avoid spam or back on the spammer to have sufficient domains to continue their spamming - it limits a bad actors ability to spam the shit out of the network if Users can avoid seeing non-NIP05 verified accounts or filter out known-bad providers.
I want to filter on the vast vast majority of Nostr users who DO have NIP05 on their npub - per Will, head of the biggest Nostr client, that’s retarded.
I’ll tell you what is retarded - being head of the biggest Nostr client and doing three fifths of fuckall to help users deal with spam for 3 weeks because you personally have a setup where you don’t see the problem because you control the biggest public relay as well.
Where there’s no perfect solution so instead of providing solutions with tradeoffs, you get defensive to protect how you’ve done nothing to help users who are paying you to be an open source Dev and double-down on your doing nothing.
Where you don’t use your official App account to tell paying users about the limited mitigations you do have to offer.
Where you expect everyone to follow your main account on the opposite side of the world to Users where they’ll hopefully see your posts in their feed despite only having a chronological feed and no delayed reposting.
That’s retarded Will. nostr:note1tf87zywts0rydfs0s8q0ychypxz5hw3ae03yrfum8vnujznjhp6qe626sk
The mouse has won because the cat got fat and lazy and didn’t think the mouse could get any cheese.
When we tell the cat he’s been outsmarted he tells everyone he hasn’t and that they’re retarded for not following the cat’s setup where the cat controls both the biggest relay and the biggest client and hasn’t communicated how his personal setup has avoided the mouse getting his cheese but we’re all retarded because the mouse gets all of ours.
It’s not on relay admins.
isn’t spreading ReplyGuy - you pay 6969 Sats and you are on the whitelist. ReplyGuy and his tens of thousands of accounts aren’t on the whitelist.
It’s on client admins to give us *something*.
Anything.
Anything is better than nothing but the fat cat would rather ignore the problem because he’s found a way around it even though he’s not shared it.
Shits me to tears.
I’ve been looking at second passports.
They are all fiat as fuck.
All of them.
No surprise when you understand the State is just the supreme mafia of any jurisdiction.
It is just super clear when you compare what different countries require and ask yourself why those specific requirements apply.
The US either ends up in civil war amongst themselves or they externalise it.
Both are shitty options but I’d 110% prefer they focus inwards and destroy themselves. It would save millions of lives.
Nah leave it on.
If an open source network is going to resist attacks then devs are going to have to listen to and work with users.
That’s not happening now. @Martti Malmi is the only dev I’ve seen actively try to help
users stop ReplyGuy. @Alex Gleason 🐍 and @Fabian are at least in the idea stage.
The most popular clients running the biggest public relays are seemingly ignoring the problem because they have tweaked things to suit themselves.
They need to get their shit together or else become eighth tier clients/relays.
Users have been extremely forgiving and they’ve not given 1/10th of the fucks they should have.
NIP05 should be “mandatory”.
Spinning up npubs is free. Attaching them to domains isn’t.
If we want to rid ourselves from domains we have a different problem but we can work on that AFTER we solve the current one.
Sure.
Then your npub is a burner. You can post into the wind on https://anonostr.com
I’m not opposed to people posting with Burners at all. That’s a legit usecase and I hope to see users of it by following hashtags.
I’m opposed to my feed being spammed by accounts which I should easily be able to filter because the client devs don’t want to give me any further tools to handle my feed.
If anon accounts want to spam a hashtag I can unfollow if. OR I can have thresholds like I’m suggesting.
This is Nostr bumping up against ancap limits. Ancap doesn’t work in a world of zero friction - it just doesn’t.
Agree 💯
But a counterargument: Alex gives >0.001 shit about ReplyGuy spam whilst @jb55 who I’ve donated to for 2 years doesn’t give one iota of a shit and neither does @Vitor Pamplona on the alternative OS should I decide to switch platforms.
So overall that puts Alex and his false premise, even put up against a literal Lightning Dev on one hand and on the other a guy who created a fucking vaccine passport but other than that retarded lapse of judgment seems to care about freespeech and has done more for #nostr than anyone else developing his client, ahead of both.
It’s not like Will and Vitor don’t know the problem - they just don’t seem to care.
Alex is moving the needle. Will and Vitor are accepting a needle covered in shit because it doesn’t affect their own use of the protocol.
So I’m sorry, but I’m with Alex by default until others pull their fingers out their bungholes and start helping their Users. No-one is accusing Alex of not trying to help Users at least and as a client-dev, what other job do they have?
Asking for Sats and then abandoning Users is fukt.
It’s a small thing but Nostur is the one changing Monero to 💩 right?
Shouldn’t be so much to ask to have one client not fuck with the feed negatively and not have them ignore problems on the other hand.
You don’t seem to care about any solution which “you think” you have already thought through regardless of whether you have or haven’t.
Maybe you have thought through my suggestion but you’ve dismissed it just because it doesn’t meet your bar.
My suggestion is real tooling for real users. You don’t like it because it’s not perfect.
So I get a button which you did a shitty job of communicating through official channels (a separate bugbear) and still get to deal with the dregs of it.
You don’t want Damus users filtering on NIP05. Only your solution “could” work even though it clearly hasn’t. My suggestion was dismissed because in theory ReplyGuy could add his own NIP05s and instead of considering how Damus users could share blocklists you just negged it.
I’m not going to be so kind as @Low Information Voter. That bar is way too low IMO
The client devs are running the biggest relays mate. It’s pretty obvious that messes with their incentives to run the best clients when they can fiddle on both sides of the argument and they don’t give us anything clientside because in their view, relay side solutions are better.
They need to focus on one side.
Client side they should be giving us tools to filter out bad NIP05s. Pretty easy for ReplyGuy with his masses of accounts with no NIP05.
They’re not doing that. Giving users that option is too difficult.
“Relay spam filtering”
That’s the problem Will.
I don’t want to use YOUR relay spam filtering. You fucked up communicating your Web of Trust already so I don’t want to rely on you anymore.
I want you as my client dev to give me the tools to filter on npubs in my preferred client: Damus.
I’ll decide my own relays thank you very much.
You’re conflating things thinking you can solve things from both sides when you can’t even solve YOUR side, that of the client, satisfactorily.
Perhaps you need to pick a side rather than trying to do both shittily.
Trey isn’t actually disappointed in Bitcoiners.
He’s disappointed that his leftist friends are the most resistant to #Bitcoin.
He can’t articulate such a point which would destroy his worldview; but it’s true.
Trey the progressive Bitcoiner won’t tell you this because he wants you to think we’re all on the same team.
I’ll tell you this knowing it will antagonise Trey and his followers because we are not because I’ve internalised Robert Conquest’s 3 laws of politics which are ironclad guarantees: nostr:note1nlw9dgjwkfhujt5vvqta9h9v0ymwv3354k7fy6fxy67yzvr2e5ks8nqkudnostr:note1fesv04cgmlkanughm5l0mtxylr0zvu7r8nf64uvv94cw2805hu6q4n2dtx
If even Peter McCuckmack can go from leftist to right-libertarian with enough exposure, then why does anyone whatsoever care about Trey and his ilk of leftards?
McCuck had one of the biggest podcasts in Bitcoin. He worked out after much effort that messaging to “progressives” didn’t yield money in Bitcoin.
Even he reverted to conservatism about that which he knew best. Even he saw the bureaucratic behaviour as a cabal of his enemies.
McCuck was a proper leftist and he had to change to survive.
Trey is a proper leftist who doesn’t want to change - he wants to change leftists to agree with him.
Trey’s podcast failed. It has ended not by choice but because he couldn’t get “progressives” onboard to agree with him.
Neither is a hero.
And I’ve voiced my disagreement with McCuck plenty but I will say - fuck Trey with a cactus 😄
This space is not for progressives. It’s for right-libertarians here to separate money and state once and for all.
Trey doesn’t want that. He wants to co-opt Bitcoin for progressive ends and he can shove that right up his progressive arse and if you don’t agree, go suck Saylor’s fiat dick.
Ok sure.
I’m no fan of King Cantillionaire as my profile would reveal.
But I kind of expect that his xits are going to be pumped into my feed more often than the xits of people who don’t own Xitter..
That it took a Super Bowl for him to realise he wasn’t getting more exposure than a vegetable is… so irrelevant I don’t know why you’ve bothered to inform us of this crap?
After 6 weeks of #carnivore I went full #moustachstr today.
Dropped 8kg so my face is looking rather chiselled without the bushy beard and a nice fresh haircut. Complements all day!
Have to say Carnivore is a godsend. I can’t do it fulltime with my current fiat mining but I can easily do some weeks in winter and reap the benefits.
Definitely feel better on just protein and fat, never hungry. But giving up pizza and beer *permanently* isn’t worth it.
Good!
We’ve run a paid relay for 18 months. We’ve disseminated zero spam.
If everyone paid for relays like https://relay.nostr.com.au then none of us would experience spam.
Paid relays are the solution - not the problem.
Free relays are the problem. Running a free relay with next to no spam mitigation should be considered an attack an Nostr.
Doing so as a client dev who refuses to provide any tools to mitigate spam - you you’re just a bad actor at that point.
I’m not comparing them.
If you re-read my note, I have been spending half my time on Xitter telling people to come to Nostr.
Recommending n00bs to come here when client devs refuse to help users deal with spam is a non-starter.
*I* look like the idiot recommending they come here and deal with spam when clients could help us deal with this but in 2 weeks have refused to do so because there’s no *perfect* solution for them to implement.
I’m not staking *my* reputation on Damus or Amethyst when the Devs are willing to have their Users spammed to shit. They can sort their shit out first rather than me burn my efforts getting Users to come and be as pissed as I am.
This is what happens when client devs ignore Users who want *some* tools, because they don’t think those tools are perfect enough.
Half my activity on Xitter is telling people to get on #Nostr - guess what I’ve stopped doing on Xitter now that I can’t recommend a good client to shield n00bs from basic spam?
My own noting has dropped off and I can’t in good conscience tell anyone to join here when it’s a shitshow because we have no NIP05 filtering to stop ReplyGuy. nostr:note1rd0hrcxq5rt8maw7jcez6pv2y37w65galp7j50ldvun4jch2ftusaghk4g
“You can’t vote your way out of this”
This is a common refrain amongst Bitcoiners and Blackflag types. Hell anyone who doesn’t trust modern Democratic systems.
But no-one seems to ask, “ok then how the hell DO WE get out of this cycle?!”
The answer is blood. Specifically the blood of parasites who believe they have moved beyond flesh and bone status.
Until they are reminded of exactly how flesh & bone they are, this system rolls on.
Lots of them have to have their heads lopped off so they can once again understand they’re not special. They have flesh & bone that can be ended like for anyone else.
Without real world costs on their behaviours, nothing changes.
#BBTG and make these cunts suffer.
Did you know that Ho Chi Minh wanted every Vietnamese to be able to afford a bowl of pho per day. That was a key plank of his ideology.
They run about 30,000 to 50,000 VND per bowl which is ~2 hours work for their lowest skilled labour like security guards.
Vietnamese joke about the people from Mekong Delta. They are their backwards lazy bumpkins because it’s impossible to starve there, everything grows easy so they just live and eat pho all the time whilst everyone else has to work.
Pho is their poor people food. Not banh mi; bread is a luxury. Not even broken rice.
Pho they never get bored of and get everything they need in one meal.
Lol you’ve convinced me
That looks capable of bringing 3 men 385,000 kilometres back through the Van Allen Belt and Earth’s atmosphere after bringing a car to play some golf up there 😂
Ok I thought you were talking about an actual Bitcoin issue there.
I want client devs to give users tools to filter on NIP05s. They don’t want to because it’s not a perfect solution.
It adds enough friction to solve ReplyGuy with onus on NIP05 providers or mass blocking his owned domains but it’s not perfect enough so rather than give us the imperfect tools and tweak with feedback they just let us deal with a maelstrom of shit instead.
They’re pissing me off a lot more than ReplyGuy is. Won’t be donating to the previous class of devs again based on how they’ve handled this.
People will still be discovering things in #Bitcoin decades from now, possibly beyond a century.
Humanity has never had absolute scarcity before so we don’t know the full implications of it.
The fact that Austrian economists aren’t creaming themselves over BTC tells me they aren’t serious about their discipline. They should be having a fucking gold rush and instead they want to debate that because it doesn’t fit Mises regression theorem if it can even be classified as money.
This feels so quaint.
#AUStriches just had a massive gold mine denied by the government because RFK Jr’s Aboriginal cousin told Tanya Plibersek that the spirits of the ancestors didn’t want the mine..
Who in South Africa is gonna dig that shit out of the ground? The copper cable thief’s? 😂
Do Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan strike you as Top-14 countries in the world?
I can see a reset of gold because central planners can control that much better with their fiat tools.
But #Bitcoin is programmed to be better money, fuck whatever the dreamtimers and central banksters claim - it’s staying at 21M and will eat the world because of it. https://i.nostr.build/JBw1V91lcEtmN5cZ.jpg
Sure but they’re not going to put anything of scale together. Ironically that would require further breakdown of society.
Whilst you still have “a government” they’ll be efficient in stealing from the most successful - only if it completely break down will the mining be properly efficient because then the mines will be self-sufficiently protecting themselves from government.
Looting implies a violation of someone else’s property rights.
That wasn’t what Rhodes did - he used the lack thereof and the newly imposed colonialist systems to his advantage.
I’m not saying what he did was ethically right but that looting is not the right way to describe it either.
Exploiting seems more appropriate.
Yeah I’m not an expert on this but I’ve got experience and knowledge of Australian Aborigines that puts me in the 0.01%.
It’s easy to claim the Aborigines were exploited. They were nomads with no property rights, just territorial claims and their technology was Stone Age coming up against Industrial era when Britain colonised.
I’ve seen what the Aborigines in their massive landmass (they’d be the 10th largest nation by area globally based on what they control under native title) have achieved - absolutely fucking nothing.
Everything they have, whities ‘taxes’ paid for.
Their rates of DV and child sexual abuse and general crime and drug abuse, if actually understood by the Australian public, would lead to a revolution tomorrow. I’m talking criminality on a completely unacceptable level. That they’ve been allowed to do this shit and we’ve paid for it is absurd.
I’m extrapolating here, but I’m not going to demonise Rhodes for being productive with a population who did nothing and never got themselves technologically able to resist.
The Aborigines didn’t, they later aligned with leftists and now the rest of us pay for them to rape each other whilst they’re regularly high and produce literally zero. 90% unemployment in their communities; they live off welfare.
We shouldn’t pretend like these people were hard done by when they’ve managed to keep their culture and it’s absolutely abhorrent. It shouldn’t have been maintained. It should have been stomped out when it was as easy as shooting fish in a barrel because they’d achieved nothing worthwhile saving.
The English only ethnically cleansed Tasmania. They could have easily done the rest and didn’t. If it were the Japanese who colonised Aus the Aborigines would be a footnote in history.
The tribes who sat on gold and never produced wealth until colonialists came - too bad, so sad. They lucked out that it was the English who colonised them and not a proper ruthless people as was more typically the case throughout history.
