 @gsovereignty ‘s talk surprised me- it was great.

 i think this is really cool. getwired.app global feed is now sorted by TOTAL energy wasted on a thread. it adds up all the work contributed by OP and replies. https://image.nostr.build/05a465774c3f662124c86175a782c9f13bc0633c385da2a2d1b7ca45945f8f25.jpg

 small world. i found a bloke that teaches aero eng at a uni near me, and he’s got a whole ass doco abt him building manned airships by WERNER HERZOG himself 🫨

id ask him for advice on Lufta, but he seems kinda nuts. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=CyRfJmac9a0

 my next flight in a couple days is probs gonna be at night. maybe i’ll recreate the scarface scene, but write ‘kill yourself’ in phosphorescent paint https://i.pinimg.com/originals/97/29/ce/9729ceecddbf61f4cf75d2018443a93a.gif 
 3 next objectives for getwired.app
- stop being a shit dev and get @Wired working properly 
- steal @fiatjaf ‘s PoW relay and make Wired really easy to deploy as a client/relay combo w docker 
- make it more fun

(also, maybe NIP 60/61 if i can get wallets working well for anons) 
 yea i renamed it 
 a fair few ppl are making PoW notes on nostr now, which cool but is kinda making the global feed on wired noisy. need a different approach. 
 that’s what i wanna know too haha. i really like their company, and don’t think i ever interacted with them. 

maybe they saw me tell jack to kill himself or something 
 Zaps are counterfeit-resistant engagement. 
 it’s v easy to fake zaps no? remember when @benthecarman did the >21M bitcoin worth of zaps on a note or sum shit

 do you believe in free markets? 
 pls shill getwired.app at nostriga for me if you’re there 
 running powstr.vercel.app 
 someone needs to make the equivalent of nostr for flight controller software. i’m gonna kill myself if i have to keep using px4/ardupikot. 
 i work on nostr because it let’s me feel like a cypherpunk even tho i have down syndrome https://video.nostr.build/f20a95cfabb0a9e49b930df3ff9bb9695fce3bfa18561317a7e8cbe81d310d42.mp4  
 the tension between US and China is like one of those ‘history doesn’t repeat, but it rhymes’ moments. feels like US is Carthage and China is Rome on more levels than you’d think. 
 Thucydides Trap is bullshit tho 
 - mercenaries are the defence companies. Chinese conscripts have a very strong sense of national identity. 
- US’s power is primarily derived from commerce, whereas China has immense man-power
- China is a rising superpower, while the US is established 
- China just copies everything the US does in defence lol 
 that’s kinda the sicilian wars lol 
 yes i think the funny thing abt central planning is that one bad policy decision can fuck everything 
 auto-following on account creation is a mistake. especially for nostr clients. takes a bunch of a... 
 it is just a hack, so i disagree unless we actually achieve functioning algo feeds.
- trending doesn’t work. until we have functions algo feeds ^ trending is just bitcoin and ‘how good is nostr’ circlejerk threads, which imo doesn’t lead to follows for new users
- search is too much work if you assume a new user is initially indifferent to nostr 
- topics (hashtags?) aren’t active, and id argue never will be if most of nostr is twitter clones, as that’s a remnant of old twitter. 
 yeah that’s what i’m doing. still gonna absolutely suck if new relays have no good way to filter for PoW notes. 
 so sad to see that the Brazilian communists finally got to him nostr:note1kq8q568qn4wxypmn2n9ua9u8yrpawm0cd0z5mlkjm9q3h9m360csgfjhgl

 @Felix your tracking link bot must be using gigawatts of power with all the PoW notes it puts out 😂 
 Nostr Twitter Feed style clients aren't doing it for me anymore.

 getwired.app 
 why doesn’t the ids:[“0000”] filter work with nostr-tools anymore https://image.nostr.build/6f484635c42697b90fb490e82853f0f930b8d67ec80f9d51e30dd618fe470f80.jpg

 gonna tell all my retarded twitter friends to come over here and tell @fiatjaf that nostr should use a blockchain until he disappears 
 are you sure this means X is not accessible, and that they’re not just shutting down their offices? 
 gonna grind out a self-made emote picker for Wired 🫡 no better way to waste a saturday night than this 
 i wonder what’s the most amount of hashrate i could juice out of an iphone running the getwired.app PWA if i really optimised it 
 i’m glad ppl are fixing their priors about scientists and only giving their respect to those doing the ‘hard’ sciences 
 any science made up mostly of statisticians is complete bullshit and noise 
 3.5hrs of Peter Thiel yapping let’s go
