Swearing always helps me.


💯 I have been arguing this point for what seems forever.


Thank you for providing a counterweight. In a world of polarized opinions, holding the middle becomes the hardest position to take and the most trying story to “sell”.


I agree wholeheartedly. If the world was cleansed, as you say, of one of the world’s superpowers, whom would assume that role? A small group of anarcho-capitalists, or the thug with the largest stick?


If you’re right and systemic collapse is inevitable, then we are headed into a dark age of humanity or extinction. The modern Leviathan of the current global order is not something you just let spiral, and hope that bitcoin acts as a safety net which arrests the fall. Money just isn’t going to matter that much, when the power competition starts on a global scale, and the Long Peace comes to its end.

The idea that the “bad money” being used to fuel the armies and weapons will blunt the ability of states to prosecute World War III is pretty much, to me, one of the most naive hopes that I see in these conversations. It requires a real failure of imagination and ignores the real ways in which our tribal instincts cause us to close ranks around external threats.

In World War II, the American public and most of its allies, were able to sustain extreme economic hardship, while maintaining support for war, for instance. Rationing. Soup lines. High inflation. Germany’s currency had literally completely collapsed nearly 10 years earlier, and Hitler still managed to nearly take over the world within a decade of that event.

If people really think we need to write-off the current “system” and prepare for “what’s next”, and abandon the principle of stability and trying to hold the center, then I actually think humanity is likely careening towards extinction. I don’t say that lightly.


Maybe, or it’s just a career that provides me with a lot of time to play on the land 😜


People need to look at some pictures of the Great Depression, or read a few books.

1. I spent a lot of time coaching and working in camps with children when I was young. Children still believe anything is possible, that the world contains magic, and that they can make a difference. They aren’t jaded and pessimistic. It’s nice to be around this type of energy.

2. I really enjoy designing lessons and having my students access information and knowledge that they may not have been able to do before. I like being a strong male figure and a safe place for some children who don’t have that at home. I like connecting with people and playing a role in their lives.

3. I have taught in a town of 2000 people at a school on the reserve, in the suburbs, and at a top academic private school with multi millionaire and a few billionaire families. I have worked in three different provinces, under four different provincial governments. I have been part of unions (because I had to be), and I have been on 1 year contracts.

4. I teach my students to always question everything. To challenge authority, to challenge the people who seek to teach then their ways of knowing and understanding the world. Obviously, always in the most respectful way. I have anarchist tendencies and believe in the sanctity of the individual. I love for time spent in the outdoors but also understand the power of technology and the power that these children will have to utilize in the future, and what they are currently up against.

There’s more. It’s hard to narrow it down. Thanks for asking. 🤙😁


“For land, the mixing of one’s effort to improve and live on it is called homesteading. Rothbard’s homestead principle is that whoever uses/improves/lives on otherwise unowned land becomes its owner. No one else has authority over that land.”

This was the same argument presented in two treatises and was used by colonizers to “claim” what Locke defined as “unused” or vacant land from AmerIndians.

Others have argued that hunting and land-clearing certainly consti- tute use and occupation and, therefore, Amerindians have title to their traditional lands: they 'hunted all the country over ‘and for the expedition of their hunting voyages, they burnt up all underwoods in the country once or twice a year.

To circumvent this defence,  opponents deployed the argument that only sedentary agriculture and improvement constitute the kind of use that gives rise to property rights and, therefore, hunting and gathering lands may be looked on as vacant wasteland.

It seems Rothbard believes the same thing and takes it another step beyond that and justifies the continuation of these claims. Which is convenient when dealing with a population without any written record of ownership, or who did not in anyway need to use the same institutions for record keeping.

I point out these things to highlight that these men whom many point out as heros for the sovereignty of the individual and personal freedoms, in fact used their definitions property  to do the opposite of what they claimed to be doing. If we are to use their very definitions, one’s they used to asset their freedoms in Europe, then it’s difficult to see how they could justify their actions in the colonies.


So you can steal someone’s property and your heirs can inherit it, as long as the the person you stole it from is dead, along with all of their relatives? This doesn’t make any sense to me, but I think I need to read the entire thing.


This is a better strategy.


Yeah you’re probably right. The urge has passed 😜😁.


This is normal?


No, that’s not what I meant.


Seems too easy to just say, everyone is wrong to a degree, so I won’t stand for anything. It’s the same with the people who say, don’t worry about things you can’t control. That’s like telling me not to wear a jacket when it’s raining.

I saw some notes today about some clients using “scores” to their users. I don’t really understand it, and probably will never look into it, or learn about it, but I thought it would be funny to change my “status” on the hot new social client noodity on the nostr 😂🤷♂


You’ll have to ask the developers of the client 😂


I’m not sure 😂


One caveat. Before this, the Law (as you’ve called it) was used to plunder the land. Then I would agree with the rest of what you’ve said.


It was.


I oppose everything!

But I’ve just seen two of your notes bringing it up? 😂

I can’t say I’ve seen any others. Must be when I’m asleep 😂


Who cares about your mute list? Did I miss something?


I find it impossible to have an opinion. How can I? I have not spent a day in either’s shoes. I know what I am capable of. Of what all humans are capable of and to say I would choose different fails to acknowledge what drives a person to hatred and to commit acts of violence. I think of the children and the trauma. There is no post traumatic stress, because there is no post. There is just trauma. It will take generations for these children to heal, but they will.


I’m not sure which client you’re using, but in the few I’ve used you can change this in settings. Appearance etc. and have it show all images.

The Northern Cheyenne were known for their height, striking facial features and muscular stature. At the time, they were called the Giants of the Plains.


By the 1800s, the Cheyenne averaged 5’10 and most of the plains tribes averaged between 5’6 - 5’9, while their European counterparts averaged between 5’5 - 5’6.

Yes


Nailed it


Why would people be less likely to care for it, if no one owns it? If that were true all public land, crown land, BLM land would be completely destroyed? Which it is not? People’s have used, cared for, and sustained land for thousands of year without “owning” it, in the western sense, based upon Locke’s two treatises.


Have a good day Marie. See you tomorrow!

No problem! We all got help when we first arrived and most are willing to lend a hand.


Find a user you trust and copy their relay list. You can fine tune it later. Try a few clients (apps) and see which one works for you. Post notes and engage with people. Ask lots of questions and revel in the fact that you are the curator of your experience. You are in full control! Welcome!

This would be killer


I really like the gallery feed in nostur


Maybe we need a “gateway” client? 🤷♂


Awesome pics! You haven’t changed much!


13 years! It’s a part of you. Kind of like a piece of art or tattoo? Takes you to a place, reminds you of a memory, or time in your life.


That’s awesome! All of our kids struggled with # 2. They would go days and we’d have to feed them prunes and then there would be a poo - nami! We finally figured out that if they are naked they would hate pooing on the floor. Pooing in their clothes was too close to feeling like a diaper. So for the last two, we’ve just kept them naked for two weeks and it’s worked!


Don’t forget nihilism. 😂

I've been playing around with the content settings in the latest Coracle update. WOT settings, muted words, control of replies/no replies in main feed, etc. It's really great how an individual's preferences are taken into account, so that anyone can create and curate the feed they want. Awesome work nostr:nprofile1qqsf03c2gsmx5ef4c9zmxvlew04gdh7u94afnknp33qvv3c94kvwxgspz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduq3xamnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7tpvfkx2tn0wfnszxmhwden5te0vd58y6tnw3cxjmrv9ehx7um5wgcjucm0d5w28rcn  !

Good morning fellow plebs, a new version of coracle awaits. Lots of quality-of-life improvements, mostly centered around a re-write of routing. The result is that you can share deep links and coracle will automatically convert the modal content to a page. Let me know if this is too confusing, but I think it'll work well in practice.

Also in this release: performance improvements, WoT threshold, an option to show muted/hidden replies, an option to hide replies on feeds, and more music in the player.

One of the best things is that nevent/nprofile is now used whenever possible, making links you share more likely to load for someone with different relay selections than you.

# 0.3.11

- [x] Re-write routing to make modal links persistent and handle history better
- [x] Handle a tag replies
- [x] Fix feed search
- [x] Simplify card theme using css
- [x] Fix notification badge for non-accepted conversations
- [x] Add WoT help information
- [x] Add WoT threshold setting
- [x] Show relays in feed controls
- [x] Exclude angle brackets from url regex
- [x] Fix double modal close bug on double click/esc
- [x] Show local relay dot if note is loaded from cache
- [x] Tighten up note actions on mobile
- [x] Don't show cached notes on relay-specific feeds
- [x] Allow copying note text without opening the note
- [x] Support cmd+click of certain links
- [x] Add show/hide replies toggle to feeds
- [x] Don't ruin gifs and webp uploads
- [x] Normalize urls more robustly
- [x] Add back button to onboarding steps
- [x] Fix load grouping to split limited loads out
- [x] Fix load to actually return events
- [x] Allow showing hidden replies
- [x] Add 32123 support to notes and music player
- [x] Add support for zap splits (wavlake version only)
- [x] Encode relays into urls when possible
- [x] Opt-in to local relay only when it's actually useful
- [x] Fix link overflow when media previews are off
- [x] Speed things up by using animations more sparingly
- [x] Fix DM view scrolling and formatting of messages with links

But they will come back. On both sides. The children will get of the wheel. They will find a way. They have to. I still believe in the beauty of humanity.


The trauma will last generations. Until the children find peace, something to love and something to live for. It will be a long road back, from a very dark place.


Yes, I’m afraid it is.


And the world watches and asks questions to one another about “proportional response”. Human beings are once again being portrayed as animals and savages. Most will be killed, until there are only a few left. Just enough to say we care, but not enough to be a threat. Then the world will feel sorry for them. They will be given plots of land, that are worthless to them and to the rest of the world. And their lives will be forgotten. I know this story well. It has been written before.


I second that sentiment.

I’ve got a few articles and notes to retrieve, which may bring some of your thoughts into question. It will take me a little bit of time to gather them and present them in a coherent manner. I look forward to continuing this discussion further.


Blocking your pores. This reminds me of a story my father in law told me. He lived in Saudi for five years and many of the expats would drive out into the desert on excursions and adventures. The story goes that a couple of English expats drove out into the desert and got lost and broke down.  They attempted to make the trek back to safety, but were worried about the sun. They used the oil from the vehicle as a form of sunscreen. The oil blocked their pores and they succumbed to the heat of the desert.


Maybe he didn't intend for his words to be used in such a way, but I believe the interpretation of his work was used as such.


I enjoy hijacking threads. Samecat is usually my brother in arms.


Yes, some argue that the famous chapter on property, which contains most of the references to Amerindians in the Two Treatises, was written to justify the 17th-century dispossession of the aboriginal peoples of their land, through a vigorous defence of England's ‘superior’ claims to proprietorship.


I was raised Christian and still consider myself Christian with an *sterisk

(I went to Christian school from 1st grade to 12th) after going to college I took a bunch of mythology classes because I liked that shit in highschool. And I really latched on to the teacher and took every one of his classes. Myth of all sorts of different cultures and different aspects of those cultures. The food! I had a class all about food. I had a class all about the underworld and hell in different cultures.

Separately, I took a few native American studies classes, I didn't know it and I can probably still go back and take it and get it, but I was 1 class away from getting a whole certificate in native American studies.

But the more I learned about other cultures, and what they thing about heaven, hell, and how we came to be, the more I realized that literally every culture has all the same stories just people's names are different🤷🏽

Kind of like if you and me grew up very differently, but we're on opposite sides of the street and saw a car accident, we would have the same stories but very different details just based on how our different minds work and the different angle. 🤷🏽

So I'm Christian. I believe in God it a higher being than me. But I also believe that maybe God used to fuck around a lot, maybe he was throwing lightning bolts at people. Or maybe he popped his own eye out for knowledge. And that the coyote loved the moon so much that he threw hummingbirds poking holes in her velvet cape to convince her to come down because it wasn't so dark anymore. And when she didn't he learned to howl. I believe that the first Chumash people on Catalina island were given a rainbow bridge to cross to the mainland. And that those who feel into the ocean became dolphins.

Most of all I know that I don't know. But if I live as a good person and encourage good around me good seems to come back but ultimately between me and the one up there it's a nuanced thing we're going to have to discuss in the end. And I look forward to that.


I’m trying to grow nostr! 😂🫂💜


SOB write! 😂

Exactly. Names define what is. And what is, is always changing.


The Name of the Wind. My favourite series.

The only name that is valid is the one I currently have. It is not written anywhere, and it changes, and it resides in the hearts of my family.

The rest are utilitarian and used for a variety of purposes.


And what of the peoples who did not work the land, but instead used the land in a way that sustained it? They did not till the soil, build structures, or modify it in anyway. They did however understand which berries to use andin which season. Which nuts to gather and which buffalo to kill. How would one define their claims to such “property”?


You're arguing semantics here. Providing a "name" is not KYC.


Sorry Mountain Lion, I'm not going to argue further about this. If you think this is KYC, so be it. Not a hill I'm going to spend my time on. Have a good one :) PV.


No. I mean I have multiple names. I have a name for Nostr. I have a name for the governemnt. I have a name in my community. I have a name for Bullbitcoin.

You must only have one name? The one that the government uses?


No. I do it without any KYC information. It is KYC free.


Because I have done it without providing any KYC information. Hence, why it is KYC free.

"As the tale goes, one evening Red Cloud attended a White House reception giveny by President Ulysses S. Grant, and found himself in conversation with the bitter officer.

"Horseshit," the officer replied. "Your people have been there no more than a couple of generations. They come from Minnesota, and you were born in Nebraska. You took that land from the Crows. And do you know why took that land from the Crows? Because you could.

Guys, I fixed global

https://v.nostr.build/ZlKP.mov

 Of course, I also made it impossible for new people to find followers for people who use this feature. What should the default be for new users? I'm thinking 1 — enough to keep people safe, but a low enough bar to allow for discoverability.


One of the things that makes WoT so challenging is that there is no end to the tweaks that could be implemented; but what may be great for one group of users may not work at all for another. In the short run, simple algos like this one can be very powerful and have wide appeal, so I’m glad to see this WoT implementation in coracle! But I imagine it could be tempting for a dev to try to add too many improvements. Where to draw the line is a judgement call. In the long run, we want our WoT to help us decide which filtering algorithms to use, including how to tweak them and in what context. All decisions, the simple ones and the complex, the little ones and the big ones, ultimately will be farmed out to your WoT (at your discretion, of course). How to build this? Not an easy problem!

Most importantly (to me), the fact that YOUR WoT is anchored to YOU (it’s clearly YOUR WoT, not “the” WoT) is of tremendous importance. We want the user to get used to the fact that ultimately, the heavy lifting for all data curation - whether it’s for “safety” or otherwise - must be handled by your WoT, not by the state or The Coracle Corporation or whomever.


I like to just listen sometimes too.

Beautiful.


It’s liberating.


You can put a house on it, build a fence around, and rent it, with the permission of your government. Then when someone wants it, they will rip down your fence, burn your house, and then remove you from it. Or they will take it back with inflation and taxes when you die, because your kids will not be able to afford the taxes on it. In this regard, I don’t own my house, or my land. I’m simply the caretaker of it. Paper promises don’t mean anything to me.


Good night.


It’s always been about land. That’s why I’ll never own it. Because I can’t. No one can.


Mine died last week. Just ordered another. Glad you all are okay!


Good night Node.


When the US government began its campaign west, there was a lot of support in congress and in the major cities of the east for a “Great Indian Nation” on the northwestern plains. However, this did not last. Fantastical stories of the savages, heathens, and rapers of the great plains made their way back to the cities and a scorched earth campaign began. The war mongers found their justification for the annihilation of a people.

Did some terrible things happen? Of course, the idea of the noble savage is wrought with misplaced nostalgia and fairy dust. But what stories are we to believe?


I’m left wondering whether the Indians of the plains would have conceded their territory when they did, if they had been receiving support from another nations. Money, weapons, food, etc. from other nations that would have sought to undermine the US.

I don’t believe it would have changed the outcome but I guarantee there would have been a lot more death and destruction.

When we look to the past for lessons, we realize it’s not that much different than the present.

You’re hanging around with the wrong old people


Yes, I would believe so. You?


Which I think may also come back to their lack of confidence or feelings of self worth. It’s much easier to form a bond if you don’t have to hide parts of yourself. To be open, to speak freely, and not play a “game”. My best friends know every part of me, because I’m willing to expose it, because I’ve learned that this is the only thing that forms a bond that lasts. I expect the same in return, or I move on. It’s reduced my number of acquaintances over the years, but have made the relationships I’ve kept far more valuable.


Yes. I wonder how much of it has to do with confidence as well. I would assume that a good looking man wouldn’t need to “prove” anything by sleeping around and same with the opposite sex. Speaking from personal experience and that of my male friends, it seemed to be the ones with low confidence that would be promiscuous.

I’m just left wondering where they will show up next. It gives me a leak behind the curtain 😜


It truly is.


I’m here for everyone’s obsessions 😂


Ridiculous!


“A popular belief is that all men would be extremely promiscuous if they could. Also popular is the belief that the only thing holding individual men back from high levels of promiscuity is low physical attractiveness.”

This is why it’s not good to ascribe to “popular beliefs” 🤙

Very nice. I love field watches. The nato strap looks great!


Nice! They’ve done such a good job with their “5” line.


It is. Thanks! Just bought the spb121 yesterday but won’t be in until November.

Good night Karnage!


I understand the desire for change, but the belief in a total collapse and that somehow life will be better in that case, is a non starter for me.


Me too, but I gave up on that a while ago.


I agree with this. From the perspective of a teacher, we can’t expect people to be able to do everything from the get go. Many people will be approaching nostr from a variety of positions. I think about my bitcoin journey.

KYC custodial exchange—> cold wallet —> node running, non kyc btc—> coinjoining robosats—> lightning. If someone were teaching me and would have gone straight to the last step I would have been overwhelmed.

I think it really comes down to choice and having a multitude of clients that one can choose from and making the transition from each “level” as seemless as possible, with the caveat that keys should be the first thing that everyone understands and the tradeoffs they are making, just like buying btc from a custodial exchange or etf.


It won’t.

I think this is part of the beauty of bitcoin. Once you understand it, do you really need to watch anymore podcasts? Sure, there will be minor tweaks and what not, but believing in bitcoin allows one to focus on other interests and endeavours outside of the financial realm.

With that being said, I think if one is interested in the technical side podcasts can valuable. Wallets, mixing, privacy etc are all things that are constantly evolving.


If I were to sit down with a group of people where I live, I would reckon that the majority would be supporting Israel, as that is the narrative that they have been fed.

Yes, definitely!  The 2 year old will learn eventually :)


This has always been my technique. However, when my oldest (9) is sharing with my youngest (2) she will choose to cute the shares unequally and then place them in different sized bowls. It tricks the youngest and I let it go. Lessons learned. :)

Depends on where you live, what community you are in and who your neighbours are.

Whenever I find myself saying “this is obviously the right side” I ask, is this true or does this side have better propaganda?


Or maybe fear of retribution for having the “wrong” flag in your window?


You’ve saved many relationships, I’m sure 😂

That it does.


😁 mixed in with all of that is the crazy bits 😜


Best to just ignore them and keep posting notes! 😂


I’m not sure what we’re talking about anymore?


Because words are defined this way?


That I can expose the darkest parts of me and know that I will be loved without conditions. That I want to shower my wife with affection, protect her with my life, grow old and wrinkly, and never stop wanting to devour her. That her ideas and intelligence fuels my drive to better myself. That I’m never tired of waking up, dreaming, and building a future full of experiences with her. This is crazy in love to me.


When trending lists first came on the scene I zapped a friends GM post 329 times. It was above Snowden’s and Jack’s posts for 24 hours. 😂


I’ve been around long enough. The world was supposed to end many times before. I don’t wait anymore.


A lot of work for little reward?


Trending has always been, and always will be, shite 😂🤷♂🤙


It’s not nearly as bad, as you presume it to be.


Sounds like a recipe for disaster.


Hello!


The reason they are dead. Did they die because they had property the others wanted, or did they die because of who they were, why they believed, what values they had?


I believe this is the difference between war and genocide.


If a band of twenty men go to another bands village to steal their horses, get in a fight and kill the other twenty men vs the twenty men go to the other men’s village because they are crows and want to kill them all because they hate crows and want to eradicate every single one of them, man woman and child.


The size of the population doesn’t matter. Take the US army and North American Indians as an example. If the army walked into a camp and massacred 150 individuals that wouldn’t be genocide, unless it was part of a systemic approach to wipe out all Indians. This is how I understand the term. The village could be a 100 people, or a city of 1000 000. I believe it relates to the intent of the killing.


I believe it is along the lines of deliberately targeting a group based on ethnicity or nationhood in the attempt of destroying it. Not taking over a piece of land, property or territory, but wiping their existence from the earth.


I would agree with massacre. Genocide has a different meaning, as far as I know.


Really? You’d be interested in such a story?


Yes, and we’re crazy in love.


I’ll take crazy


Yes, I see what you mean. They used to be in the replies section. Maybe put the naked reposts in replies and quoted notes in main feed?


😂😂 sounds much better!


Which they will?


Gn Dan!


Yes, but it will not stop the propagation of sensationalism just because people are being reward from millions of individuals vs a platform.


How does it stop people from desiring sensationalism? There will always be those that seek it out and those that will provide it. Yes, it’s easier to avoid it on Nostr because we aren’t being force fed it, but it will not stop humans from being human.


They’re


With that being said, there will be those who seek out sensationalism and will reward those who provide it (through zaps). I don’t think nostr will stop that, but it will be easier for one to avoid it in nostr if that’s not what their into.


Thanks 😁🤙


It’s not the quality of my follows or my follow feed. Take Snowden’s speech as an example. I appreciate the person/people who have reposted it today, because I missed it and then watched it. Now, I have to continue to scroll past that same repost from 50-100 other people I follow that repost it. The other people who repost it aren’t doing anything wrong, and they are still high quality follows, but it would be nice to see the post only once. It seems like this is what this feature would do in nostur.


I do both.


That’s not a problem I have.


Didn’t say it sucked. It’s the only mobile client I’ve ever used and have donated many sats to. Just pointing out that it’s a nice feature that nostur has.


This is huge! I’ve had a hard time continuing to use Damus for this reason. I spend so much of my time scrolling past the same reposts. It’s very frustrating.


I dressed up as one and walked through the forest for hours. I’m sure there are many like me.

And I’ll zap you back! More probably. I have a problem.


Okay, he’s over at the neighbour’s. I’ll be back.


That’s a good idea!


I wouldn’t get one for that reason. If it comes to that, and I don’t think it will, there aren’t enough gun owners or the firepower necessary in Canada. However, having a few does give one a little peace of mind when living in a rural area or playing in the backcountry. Maybe do your safety course, go to a range and see if you like it? No harm, other than a bit of your time. The safety course can be done online and the test should be easy to coordinate in person.

Where can I place my bet?


For me, I don’t bother watering the rocks. I focus on what I can do, on what I can change. As I moved into into the next stage of my life, which you are currently embarking on, I surrounded myself with a few key people and few important things. I pour 100 percent of my life into these things, and whatever storm is happening around me I try to ignore it. The world is not as bad as it seems, or as dire as those who are selling the solutions claim it to be, when you surround yourself with what truly matters.

Nope, you can’t. It’s not everywhere. A few provinces. I’m not sure if Ontario has it?


I bake it. Hot for 20 mins and then low and slow. Stuffing, mashed potatoes, kale salad, and then my wife will make a couple of pies.

School cafeteria has Turkey dinner today too. Will be crop dusting Turkey farts all day and will blame it on the students as I walk up and down the aisle 😂

Maybe I’ll take a nap in the forest too. I strung up a hammock yesterday in a discreet spot. I feel like I’m winning. 😂

I don’t even know how many there are now? 😂 Do they have a luxury tax? Harmonized? Wtf?

Beautiful. Time stands still but everything moves.


It is the only way for incompetent people to gain power. I believe it is why so many were so quick to follow COVID mandates. All of a sudden they got to sit at desks at the hockey rink, deciding who could and could not enter. They got to play “spy” on their neighbours and report their whereabouts. They got to peek over fences to see if there were too many people in their neighbour’s backyards.

The scary thing is, the world is rife with incompetent individuals who crave power over others.

Tough when your zapper is flaccid


Yep!


I too work in education and I don’t disagree. 60% is a big number and I wasn’t questioning your expertise, or what can obviously be observed to be abuse or neglect. I was more referring to the little things we do as parents, that we all as parents do sometimes to “survive” hard or difficult moments. I’m not proud of some the things I’ve done or said, but when deciding between two bad things, I’ve had to choose the lesser of two evils. Before kids, I would have watched a parent and said to myself, I will never do that. He’s not fit to be a dad. Now, with some years of experience, four kids later, 15 years of teaching, some parents get a pass for some things because I have a different perspective.


No story 😜 😂


😂 it is fun!


yes.....:)


I don’t like being told what to do. So……..


Morning Marie!


I don't disagree, but I think one's perspective changes once they have kids. A lot of what parents do, makes a lot more sense when you have fledglings of your own. Sometimes it's just about surviving the moment.


Hasn't failed me yet.


Find a few important things and people, show them every part of you and give them the world.


There’s a bit of us in everyone. I like that. Sometimes, it’s really hard to see it.


Didn’t know you were a gamer?


Hi


That's a very important role.


We had a good laugh and it was so nice to share some time with him. IMO, our world does not show enough reverence for our elders.


I had a conversation with a 94 year old man.


The tress are their uncles and aunts. The mountains their grandparents and the streams their babysitter. My children will be raised by the land. Free range, and forever free.


Fish, it’s the opposite.
Haven’t I told you the story about the music festival, the stump, and the scrotum?
Can someone be ‘too naked’?


For once😜 don’t tell anyone 🤫


Hello 😁🤷♂


We need more people willing to make love with the lights on.


I don’t think it does 😂 I didn’t realize you have four kids! We do too!


Cool. We don’t raise anything either, other than children, but we go in on a cow and pig with our friends with a local rancher.


Switching to goats? Chickens?


Gorgeous!


If people don’t look at you the same because you have struggled or hit rock bottom, those people don’t matter. They haven’t lived, or have nothing interesting to add.


As I get older, I want to do everything.


I agree with your sentiment. Most people don't care or don't want what nostr offers them. The core tenets of freedom are not what most people seek. I also agree that for nostr to become the most popular "social" network it has to be better, or even significanlty better on what people care about. People don't seem to care about freedom of speech, freedom, individual responsibility, or having control over their data. Maybe, this shouldn't be the goal becuase it's not realistic. Maybe, nostr will just a be a place for freedom loving individualist, that look for an authentic digital space to communicate? I don't really know.


Maybe “winning” social doesn’t matter?


😂 brilliant


No, they are really, just that dumb.


You can tell a lot about a man, by observing how he sets up a tarp. 😁


Damn. That’s a nice setup!


I agree.


Looking like someone who can fight, often allows one to avoid having to fight.

If you aren’t going to carry a weapon, look like someone who might, kind of a thing.


Yes, when people should acknowledge and embrace that which has allowed their genes to survive until now. If we understand those dark parts they are much easier to control.


The key is to be able to display the capacity for violence, in an instant, when necessary.  Otherwise, I just want my belly rubbed.


Yes, grizz are not very common. Yeah, most times a dog would scare it off, but it sounds like this bear was especially agressive. Witout any cubs too? I'm not sure why?


“You can’t truly call yourself “peaceful” unless you’re capable of great violence, if you’re not capable of violence you’re not peaceful, you’re harmless” - Jordan Peterson


I haven't seen any grizzlies out there. Black bear, but never a grizz. Dogs will usually stay and defend their owners. Usually the dog is enough to spook the bear. I think the dog probably died first.

I worked in forestry in the summers to put myself through university and I had a grizzly stalking one of my crewmembers when we were out on a cutblock. I chased it off with a quad twice, but it kept coming back. It would just walk along the treeline where she was working. Finally, I had to call the foreman on the sat phone and he came out with his rifle. He shot twice, really close to it and then it didn't come back.


Yes, for sure. It is very unusual for a bear to kill two people and a dog, then remain in the area. Very strange. We spend a lot of time camping close to Ya Ha Tinda Ranch. There is public land, wild horses, and a few backcountry horse outfitters that have camps in  and around the area they were attacked.


At first it is very basic. We talk about saving, delayed gratification, using it for experiences vs stuff. We talk about my wife and I exchange our time for money and then we can use that money to do the things we enjoy. Putting time into yourself, teaching yourself, gaining skills, so that you can charge more for your time, and then use that to pay for the things you enjoy. It kind of just fits in with the rest of our conversations about what we prioritize for ourselves and our family.


Very rare, but just happened:

We have been talking to ours about money since they were four.

We take wood from slash piles on cut blocks. When a forestry company is done harvesting, they will drag all of the “scraps” with skidders to the front of the block and put them in a big pile. They’ll be there for the fall, and then they usually burn them in the winter.

We get up there with the chain saws and buck up a bunch of wood for the winter. Free of charge!

Trappers tent is just a large canvas tent, usually with a front opening and hole for a wood stove.


The time off is treating you well!

It feels like it’s coming. We have a camp in the hills, where we setup a trapping tent. We were getting wood for it, for when we go up there in the winter. No we don’t trap, it’s just the name of the type of tent 😜


Spring break? Gathering wood today. Snows coming.


Other than my wife? No.


Good morning! Enjoy the holiday!

Well, no. Air France didn’t give back the money. My bank did, and then their fraud department went after the money.

I see the creation of nostr the same way I see the American founding: based on incoherent, problematic ideas from a heterogenous group of founders; full of structural flaws; a hasty response to abuse of authority - but the seed of a movement that could change the course of history.

Bitcoin, in contrast, I think is much more pure, both technically and ideologically, and has the chance not only to change the course of history, but to define an epoch.


Make new friends and start your own family? 😁


Ah, I thought it was deeper than a house. You’ve mentioned it a couple of times, so I thought there was more that was telling you to leave Toronto.

There’s only a small line between something beautiful and something destructive. Often that line can’t be seen. But it runs through each of us. Sometimes it takes a madman to show us where it is.

All this positivity is toxic, fish.


Definitely. It’s a lot like the hippies of the 60s. All the dead heads knew of the places to swim, find women, and frolic. Then the suits, developers, yuppies came and built their “lives” around what the hippies always knew was there.

I don’t feel like songs have changed my life. They are more like time machines that transport me back to moments in my life. It’s like they resurrect the ghosts of the lives I have lived. The people and places I have shared experiences with. The experiences that have changed and shaped me.


it was! I never feel like the camera does what my eyes are seeing justice……this time maybe 🫂


Fine! You’re right!

You’re probably right. That would annoy me more 😂.


Yeah, now that I’ve had a chance to think about it, maybe it is 🤷♂😂

Goes to show how much I like Coracle, that I can’t find anything annoying.


Takes two fingers….instead of one….


Works pretty well!


I was struggling to find something that annoyed me……


If I’m actively using coracle in a tab the feed updates in real time. If I open another tab to do other things and come back to the tab with coracle, it is there but it hasn’t updated the feed. I just refresh the tab, and it continues to be updated.


Also om Damus, when I’m reading a reply, it’s hard to click on the thread. Often I can’t avoid clicking on the music that the person is playing. I have a small phone, so maybe that’s it.


Mobile - Damus - don’t like reposts in the main feed.


Coracle. If I leave the tab it’s open in, when I come back I have to refresh the page.


I’ve got some spots.

This is not a bounty per-se, I do not want to create competition, I simply want to further strfry development.  If anyone is interested in working on strfry, join the strfry telegram.  🌱


I thought this way before. Now, it’s just much worste.


How about quoted notes in main feed and reposts in replies?

I spend most of my time scrolling past the same “boost”.


Maybe an unpopular opinion, but reposts need to be removed from the main feed on Damus.


If you want it, expect it and don’t settle for anything less.

Awesome! All of ours were late. Good luck Zach!


There is an archeology site in Alberta, Head Smashed in Buffalo Jump. For 9000 years, independent bands of plains people would gather for the annual buffalo hunt. They knew that they had to put aside their differences so that they could work together to hunt the buffalo. If they did not, they would starve over the winter months, when game was not plentiful.

We live in such a fractured world of distrust, I am afraid that we have lost the capacity to see the need to support one another.

What is our Buffalo Hunt?


And then it’s gone.


I have been thinking about this a lot lately. One question I keep asking myself is, can you have a community, when the survival of the individuals of that community are not easily observed to be dependent on one another?

In our modern world, our interdependencies are hidden. People believe they are independent, going it alone, and can survive without anyone, when in fact they are dependent on the institutions and supply chains that are just hidden from their view. So, how do we teach people that they "need" their community to survive, when they have been taught the opposite?


Good night Fichcake!


Ignore them. You do you.


Some days, I have my doubts


Same old bullshit.  How about we all just agree to pay for stuff we use? Keep the advertisers elsewhere. Pay to play.


Nah.


Gn!


Why? If people are getting “free” sats for boosting why would it slow down? If it slows down, doesn’t that mean it’s not serving its purpose?


They can’t 😂

Can you explain to me why this isn’t a horrible idea?


Well now I can use it as a double entendres


I always thought it meant stealing a car


Thank god coracle doesn’t show boosts.


How about we just learn to pay for shit we use?


Before I bury my phone, climb a tree, and never come down, I want to make sure I understand this correctly.

Prism = zaps for boosting someone’s note?


Thanks!


So my feed would be absolutely slaughtered by people boosting a note? Like today?


So everyone who boosts that notewould receive part of the zaps your note received?

Me either :)


We are taught to be honourable, when they have none. We are asked to follow rules, which they break. We are told that we are all in this together, when they hide behind their gates. We are told to accept each other, when they in fact teach us to exclude.

Work hard they said, plan, follow us, and you will build a life for yourself and your family. I will not be measured by a stick that is broken. By a formula that has never existed. Let each man who meets me, judge me by what he knows to be right. What he knows is in his heart.


Still don’t know 😂. This too shall pass.


No idea what this and too afraid to ask 😂


If you have wondered how a narcissist apologizes, they don't. Pay close attention to what he says. He doesn't ever take responsibility for leading a government that made a mistake. He apologizes on "behalf" of all Canadians. I don't need him to apologize. I need him to acknowledge his role as a "leader" of Canada.

I spend most of my day teaching children to own their misakes, take responsibility for themselves, and to try to wake up and be a little better than they were the day before. Then this man walks up to a microphone, and in one act, teaches the world that his mistakes don't matter.

I was denied entry in my 20s and they still ask me about it.


I think so. They will scan your eyeball upon entry. Fly to Canada and then cross the land border.


Morning!


Hahaha. Yep, it's a cult.


i think egg coffee is already a cult?


True.


How do you do that?


A quote forces you to make a statement about the note. Add your point of view, which adds another layer. Personally, I like it when someone quotes a note more than just a repost. I should do it more often 😂


Nothing we are doing is “that’s how we have always done it” I’m not sure why you’re angry? I don’t agree with your opinion, and I am sure this feature will be a choice. Have at it.


Not at all. Read my notes above. Choice is the most important aspect and I encourage you, and everyone else, to choose whatever you want. I was simply providing a perspective of somebody who would not use these features. For me, lists and choosing who to follow are enough.


When Jack or lyn posts a note it gets amplified by the community. It gets boosted. My feed becomes inundated by reposts of their notes. I don’t need to turn up the volume anymore than it is.

I skim, or ignore posts that are repetitive. The great thing is that you can turn these filters on and off.

I was simply adding my opinion to this thread to provide feedback to the developer of my favourite client.


Gn!


😜 yes, yes we do!

yes they did! The cutthroats are voracious eaters, so even an inexperienced dolt like myself felt like a legend. It was pretty amazing throwing out a fly and watching the fish gobble it up. The kids were spin casting and were able to land a few too!

Did my son shit his pants in the first two hours of our day? Sure. Did my daughter get a boot soaker and did I make her a fire to warm her feet instead of fishing the river? Yep. Did my boys spend most of their time throwing rocks into the pools I was fishing? For sure. Would  I go through all the work and pain to do it again. Hell yes!


I see it from your point of view and you bring up valid points. For me, I follow someone because they’re human. Some days they’re angry, some days happy. Some days they don’t post anything, some days they can’t stop posting. To me this human, and if I’m following you, I want to feel human and connected to a human. I don’t follow bots (knowingly 😜). Lists and the explore filter on Coracle are good enough filters for me.


I don’t think I would ever use this. It would be very hard for me to categorize and place people into neat little categories. Influencoors and product promoters are low hanging fruit, but I just don’t follow them.


So hard to ignore

Coracle 0.3.7 is out! If I've been quiet lately, it's because I've been busy. This release has a whole lot of really useful stuff in it, so I'll be doing some videos over the course of this week to highlight certain things.

For example:

You can now listen to music published to nostr from stemstr while you browse.

Coracle now has a local relay that you can export or import to from your "Database" settings page.

Lots of content filtering features, including word muting and content warning support.

The notifications page has been overhauled, and now has much more context.

And, of course, as usual I completely re-wrote the backend to squash some annoying bugs related to whether or not you've read a notification, deleted a list, or joined a chat room.

Here's the full list:

- [x] Add local relay
- [x] Reduce wait time for person feeds
- [x] Add global music player
- [x] Support bech32 entities in long form content
- [x] Add support for profile website
- [x] Speed up reaction/reply loading
- [x] Add content-warning support
- [x] Link to github for feedback
- [x] Fix chat room joined status
- [x] Fix list deletion
- [x] Reduce repeated notes in feeds
- [x] Add database import/export
- [x] Use a bloom filter for deletes
- [x] Remember reply drafts
- [x] Topic/keyword mutes
- [x] Add person mute list to settings
- [x] Split out content settings into its own page
- [x] Improve quote loading
- [x] Show quotes even when media previews are off
- [x] Stop cursor events when menu is open
- [x] Restore document title on back

🤙

It's a total grab bag of personalities, moods and conversations at any random time of day 😆 Its like if I was schizophrenic but managed to capture all those voices and shove them into a little rectangle that I can tap tap on. Luckily this loony bin is usually well behaved.

No matter what my mood, I can find someone ready to laugh or nerd out or overthrow a parasitic global monetary financial system or coffee pics.

Though sometimes it's really interesting to see the entire community come together, whether it's to help a nostrich or a meme or some tech/freedom debacle or a typo.

I don't really see it as "following" personalities. To me it's more like this big ass room where all my quirky friends from around the world show up at when they have some time throughout their day.

If I see ya, I see ya. If I don't, I dont. Ya'll know where to find me! ✌🏽


If this doesn’t  wake up Canadians to the ineptitude of their government, I’m afraid nothing will. They wonder why I don’t follow a single one of their “recommendations”. Trust you with my health? No. Trust you with my money? Hell no. Trust you with the education of my children? Never.

Some thoughts while reading John Locke's "Two treatises of government". Let's dive in.

".. it being reasonable and just I should have a right to destroy that which threatens me with destruction." (Chapter 3.16)

Here Locke identifies the practical necessity of evaluating and responding to  threats. He is primarily considering the threats of an abusive government.

".. and hence it is that he who attempts to get another man under his power does thereby put himself into a state of war with him." (3.17)

This is real talk. Locke is using logic to identify when a person or government is at war with a person. The moment this happens is when one the aggressor seeks to make another person dependent and place then under their power.

Locke continues:

"For I have reason to conclude that he who would get me into his power without my consent would use me as he pleased when he had got me there, and destroy me too when he had a fancy to it; for nobody can desire to have me in his absolute power unless it be to compel me by force to that which is against the right of my freedom -- i.e. make me a slave." (3.18)

Locke brings pure dynamite here by invoking only his reasoning. Why would a voluntarist want complete control over you? He wouldn't. A voluntarist leaves you alone, except if you abuse children, but that's a violation of consent - only adults can fully consent.

The voluntarist therefore is not a threat to any honest, moral man. But the authoritarian, he that seeks "absolut kontroll",, that is a man who is not going to respect your liberties.

Let's return to Locke:

".. so that he who makes an attempt to enslave me thereby puts himself into a state of war with me." (3.18)

Locke expands:

"This makes it lawful for a man to kill a thief who has not in the least hurt him, nor declared any design upon his life, any farther than by the use of force, so to get him in his power as to take away his money, or what he pleases, from him;

Because using force, where he has no right to get me into his power, let his pretense be what it will, I have no reason to suppose that he who would take away my liberty would not, when he had me in his power, take away everything else.

And, therefore, it is lawful for me to treat him as one who has put himself into a state of war with me -- i.e. kill him if I can; for that hazard does he justly expose himself whoever introduces a state of war, and is aggressor in it." (3.19)

My reflections.

Lockes logic is extraordinarily true when applied to Agenda 21 and Agenda 2030. These policies requires the State to implement CBDC's, digital ID and social credit scores. When these are implemented, that regime is, following Lockes reasoning,  in a state of war against every individual, since it seeks absolute power over every individual. Logic together with history informs us that such power will be abused -- it is at most a matter of time until it is abused.

The worst criminals are expert at gaining a high rank in a totalitarian society: they have no values and can therefore parrot every official doctrine of a regime with the convincing belief of a trained actor,  regardless how immoral or absurd that doctrine is. We know therefore that the worst humans will always end up leading a totalitarian society. Therefore, a totalitarian society is by its own essence of absolute control, at war with liberty.


Thank you Leo. To add, the totalitarian will always justify their control over individuals behind the guise of “truth” “justice” and the “greater good”. For they, and only they, are the arbiters of truth, justice, and the betterment of the common man.


Invigorating, isn’t it?


Wonderful idea!


Truth is alignment to that which is. When you are attacked for standing up for the truth, the Universe is firmly grounded on your side and it is merely a matter of time until your stance is vindicated.

Definitely worth it.

Soooooooooooooooo good


Fucking Canada Post.


Yes!


I often encounter people who reject everything that the "mainstream" is telling them.  They do this because humans are partly pattern machines.  We see a pattern and extrapolate it.  So if the "mainstream" lies over and over, it's tempting to just believe everything they say is a lie.

But the reason all you hear from mainstream are the lies and the evil is primarily that your input feed is curated to bias for such things. You are being focused onto things that are not representative. Making statistical inferences like "it's all lies" is actually a bad inference because it is only your feed that is all lies.

Sure, there is enough data to day that Biden is probably guilty of corruption. But you should also leave room for doubt.  Maybe Ray Epps wasn't an FBI agent.

Case in point is global warming. IIn fact, that is my litmus test. People who say the whole thing is a scam to have an excuse for world government socialism... they have this thinking problem. They are the ones who cannot actually find truth because they are relying on simple statistical patterns that don't represent reality, rather than going and looking for themselves at actual evidence.    They are also the most confident and comfortable in their ignorance, which makes total sense.  If they weren't comfortable in their ignorance, they might have discovered the truth.  This is probably the underlying cause of the Dunning-Krueger effect.

The world is complex. Simple answers are probably wrong. Epstein might have killed himself. Steel does soften and lose structural holding ability well below it's melting point. The UFO pictures are probably reflections or other artifacts. Most people are not malicious. But many people are highly deluded. And the global mean temperature is increasing primarily due to more CO2 being in the atmosphere than ever before.

Feel free to disagree but this is not a thread I want to have arguments in. This is just a thought I wanted to put out there. And agree or disagree, I'll keep working to make gossip the best nostr client I can make it.


Sounds scandalous! Have fun!


Yes! I still have Friday night to enjoy too!


You?


Morning!


Good morning :)


Thank you.


Thanks, you too!


Good morning! Lovely picture 🫂


Good morning!


Hello and good morning!


Thanks!


Yeah, building that immune system. 🫂💜


Good night! See you tomorrow!


Good night!


Maybe in the morning 😂 good night!


🤷♂ I should be in bed…..


I’m not sure 😂


That’s what she said


Good morning and good night!


No


Me too!


Proof of work!


BlackRock will swoop in and buy them up.


We love you too 🫂💜


Good night Purple Cat


Hello and welcome!


Gn!


Wow, that’s salty.


I like my eggs, upside down and facing the sun.


You need to marinade it, before you skewer it.


Good night Damien.


It’s on our list. I will be asking you for info!


Good night


Did you have a good trip? Were you able to get some rest?


Chasing sunsets with my girls 😁💜

What time are you playing?


If it doesn’t grow anymore than this, I don’t care. I love it just the way it is. If the world goes to shit, we will be here waiting for the digital refugees.


I like walking in the rain too. Put on same base layers, good jacket, cup of tea. No one is ever around and it usually feels like the world is mine 😁.


Fresh bread and cheese…….🤤


We have a wood stove, so if the kids are down, we love to make a fire, bake some bread and have fondue.


I started the Dungeon Synth community and then super models started joining nostr. Coincidence? I think not.

Thanks. Im searching through my head, looking at their name…….🤷♂


TITE?


Thanks Fish!


Good night!


Ah, I have never seen a puzzle like this!


What am I looking at? Is that jello?


Pencil.


I am aware. I dislike that equally 😁.


I don’t like it, but I guess it’s one way to attract mainstream journalists and those people who can’t be human and accept their mistakes.


They’ve just become smarter.


Like a baby’s arm holding an apple?


If it meant you could walk again?


Eat


I used to think I could them 😂. Mums the word!


Love the gourd arrangements!


Good morning!


Fantastic!


maybe, just skip that whole part of martha's story arc :)

Time by Shel Silverstein

Ain’t the snow fallin’ just a bit deeper these days
Aren’t they building the stairs a bit steeper these days
And the town’s really changin’ in so many ways time time time

The young folks they’re growin’ exceptionally tall
And the newspaper print it’s becomin’ quite small
And folks speak so softly you can hardly hear at all time time time

The jokes don’t seem as witty as the old jokes once were
And the girls are half as pretty as I remember her
And today you know in the park a young man called me sir time time time

Yeah I’m not quite as anxious for fame or success
And my eye finds the girl in the plain quiet dress
And I cling a bit longer to each warm caress time time time

So I breathe a bit heavy when I climb a hill
What of it my life now is really much more fulfilled
But they’re tearin’ down the building that I watched them build
Time time time time time time


Pretty close 😜🤫


Good morning and welcome to Nostr!


The scariest part is that they can come right out into the open and say it.


Are you going to prison, or growing weed with snoop?


I wouldn’t mute someone for it, but I know what they’re doing. I don’t think it’s “best pracfice.”


Desk!


Damn. That’s a deal!


Wtf! That’s beautiful! Have you been taking a dessert making course?


Our wives are angels 😂


😂😂 wow, you look a lot like your dad


Make sure you say, “You always do this…..” and then not have any evidence or examples of when she did “this” to back up your claim.


Godspeed my friend 😂


Don’t forget to give her a solution to problem she doesn’t have, when she just wants you to listen and give her a hug.


Without the culture, and the bonds we are forming, I don’t think we would be ready for the storm that is approaching.


I’m worried about this hill you’re about to die on 😂


I don’t get it either 🤷♂


😂 I did something similar five minutes ago. Replied to a note but didn’t read the thread. I was way off topic 😂


I haven’t.


I agree with this and I think one of the main reasons for this is that most people understand that the  success of nostr is far more important than anyone’s individual opinion on a topic. We can debate, question, state our opinions, but we have a shared goal. A higher purpose that drives us all.


Don’t tell anyone. I’m not actually a wolf. 🤫


An “army” to “slow the spread” of dis, mis, and mal information. “Information War”

Wow!


Ignire my note I didn’t see the thread and just responded to your note. Totally different topic 😂


Write notes for yourself and no one else. Respond to notes and engage.    If they are patient and put in the work, they will never leave.


A brigade of bum sniffing buffoons!


People are encouraged to be human. There aren’t any rewards for being a cardboard cutout of another person’s ideal.


See you tomorrow nostr:npub1rzg96zjavgatsx5ch2vvtq4atatly5rvdwqgjp0utxw45zeznvyqfdkxve

😂 done!


Done. Now what?


Why would I have sex with a q tip?


Sheer determination


Me too.


Yes, exactly. I'm a simple man and I desire simple things. It shouldn't be this "hard", or I shouldn't have to "struggle" so hard to achieve the life I want. WIth all of the conveniences and progress we have made, we all should be much "wealthier" (not talking about material possessions).


I doubt Putin is anyone's useful idiot. I'm no expert, though.


Russia is aligned with China?


India is aligned with Russia and opposed to China? That doesn’t make sense to me.


To promote disdain in Canadafor India? The narrative that they are now our enemies. Is that what you believe to be the goal?


To be clear, I wasn’t suggesting that we return to a hunter gathering existence. I was trying to point out that we do not need much to “survive” and that what some people are “struggling” for are not the necessities of life. That being said, there are many in North America and around the world who are. Also, our system jn NA doesn’t make it easy to find a place somewhere in the middle, where I think true happiness resides. For me anyway.


Thanks!


Thank you! I’ll take a look.


Morning! Beautiful!


Top of the morning


Nostr made me love people again.


I’m curios about what the Indian media and government are saying about Trudeau’s allegations regarding the killing of a Canadian citizen?

Can anyone fill me in?


I still regret that day, I fed a seagull a wasabi pea.


I would doxx myself for that after party.
