Viva Gibb studied at the National Gallery School under John Brack, and was awarded a Diploma in Painting, and a Postgraduate Diploma in Printmaking.
From her student days, she was involved in radical left-wing politics, as well as social and feminist causes. She designed dozens of political posters in the 1970s and 1980s, which were made in direct response to specific events and debates. Gibb printed the posters at home in editions of around 100, and cycled around Melbourne at night to attach them to walls near newsagents.
The following day, when Melburnians would read the newspaper headlines, they would notice the nearby posters that presented a critical commentary on current political issues. The design of the posters is simple, and the message immediate, to make the point as effectively as possible.

It was a great read. Found it interesting how tight-knit the IC really is.

Also found it interesting that Ed never found evidence of UFO/UAPs. You'd think if these objects flying around might be adversaries, the leading spy agency would want to be as informed as possible.

Unless... #ProjectBlueBeam 😅

When did you visit Australia? 😂

As an expat... The US used to have insanely cheap prices compared to Australia. Now, it sounds like you've caught up.

I've seen some as high as $12-14 here. It's mental.


nostr:npub1ej493cmun8y9h3082spg5uvt63jgtewneve526g7e2urca2afrxqm3ndrm does make some good points. There needs to be a better sync between relays. Otherwise, the "big relay" scenario can occur and the smaller relays are less useful. Less redundancy of the network as a result.

Nice, making your way to Adelaide at all? If so, check out two-bit villains


They're sorta doing that with NIP-95 I think, where the relays would store the media uploads. But certainly a torrent style could be better like you mentioned 👍


This is third-hand info, but apparently the Optus situation is kinda heaps cooked.

Every one of their devices have been deregistered and need to essentially “register” with their servers, i.e., a tower.

A similar thing happened with Telstra a while ago that impacted only Vic and Tas, but it took them ages because they had to take a bunch of towers offline and slowly bring them on so that all the devices constantly trying to re-register didn’t brute-force them and take things offline again

Multiply that by a few hundred thousand/million devices and that’s what Optus is dealing with right now... Oof

Thinking on this more, it's actually pretty funny that someone would be mad at a client for having a varying degree of algorithmically decided feed when the concept of a normal feed is itself based on a sorting algorithm.

Very nice! Thanks. Any chance of a merged notification timeline? An "All" view or something. Sometimes when the client syncs, it doesn't show a notification badge and I miss some notifications. Cheers


Saw there was some drama lately with that one client again.

I'm not really sure I understand the fascination with the repeat criticism of them tbh. Isn't this part of what makes Nostr as protocol quite amazing?

If you don't like the approach or ethos of a project....... Don't use it.

There are many other clients out there that don't want to algorithmically decide visible content on feeds.

The fixation of having elbows out, constantly being aggressive and potentially dishonest, doesn't help the community, it hinders it.

Or, use it for harassment. You'd basically need to never turn on notifications or open the app as it'd be like a DDoS lol

The process from start to attack is far easier to employ with Nostr than traditional social media with having to register a throwaway email, check activation email, send a few responses, rotate IPs, before getting banned. Rinse, repeat.

Curious, what our mitigation options will be to thwart say tens of thousands of spam comments from destroying one's experience. Or, straight filling up a relay's disk and bringing it down.

Some form of rate-limiting? #AskNostr

I use hardened FF on Linux and GOS.

But, I must use macOS for work. The past few years I had been hoping this one browser would one day be somewhat usable.

If you're on a Mac or iPhone, I definitely recommend checking out the #Orion browser. In my opinion, it's finally usable most days and both Firefox/Chrome extensions mostly work on it now, both on Mac and iPhone.

They're also slowly beginning to open-source it as well. It is very good at blocking ads/trackers, has zero telemetry, and is quite fast, as a WebKit fork.

New animated episode: SimpleX vs Session

These are both partially decentralized privacy messengers that separate identity from IP addresses using encryption.  However, there are huge differences between them both in their design goals and flaws.  In our brand new animated episode, we discuss important considerations with some tips on using SimpleX or Session:
https://video.simplifiedprivacy.com/simplexsession/


Nice video! Should probably also mention that Session founders/devs reside within Australia, which passed a law allowing the police to forcibly compell people to mole/backdoor for the gov. As well as the fact that they force you to buy their monero fork in order to stake a node in the Lokinet (allegedly to help thwart Sybil attacks).


Hello my dears, what a joy to share with you a little bit #hope and of what the event was, the result of the affection of everyone here #grownostr, who, in their own way, made it possible for this to happen. I'm going to call this post #heaventread because I'm going to mention each of the people who, through direct work like these heroes who appear in the photos and donated, made this idea of Children's Day come true!

https://m.primal.net/HNXw.jpg

We can say that through our #union to support, in the way we #believe, through donations and sharing that it is possible to live in a world without these invisible and imposed barriers. Today we can say that all of us, regardless of where we are in the world, can do our part and make a total difference!

This is exactly what I would like to share with each of you.

https://m.primal.net/HNXy.jpg

The post I made about this project last week, which took place yesterday, managed to raise 293,801 satoshis and this corresponded to 39.21% of the total donations sent to color and sweeten the days of these socially fragile children in Campina Grande - Paraíba / Brazil .

The children had a bounce house, popcorn, cotton candy, a toy raffle, face painting, a bag filled with goodies, a bag race and cupcakes filled with two flavors.

https://m.primal.net/HNXz.mp4

This is the action power of #bitcoin and #nostr in practice, enabling many children to have a different, more colorful and sweeter day from yesterday.

https://m.primal.net/HNYA.jpg

A hope coming from #attitude, #peace and #solidarity, a perfect combination just like NOSTR and BITCOIN. This unpretentious attitude in a movement by Oranged and Purpled Pilling nostr:npub1cxwz4c30ntqrhpu46rx0006qtj4feemcz54rsl3a4p7zyelh38yqmn8xfu   (my friend participating in the project) was precisely for this, practical application of the potential of these protocols that we admire so much #plebchain #plebs #pleb

Also thanks to Davi, Natália, Lidya, Itamara, Ingrid, Meire, Vitória, Maria José, Michelle, Leninha, Cladson e André!

Here are some of the unforgettable moments for these children and adults. And this moment certainly becomes special for everyone we contribute to.

https://m.primal.net/HNYB.jpg

A special thank you to everyone I managed to register here, plus those I couldn't!!! From the bottom of my heart, don't be sad if it doesn't appear on the list, as it may have been an unidentifiable direct donation.

Many on Nostr are genuinely passionate about humanity. Yet, as I've been developing features for content warnings, moderation, and user filtering, I've had to immerse myself in the less pleasant side of the platform. For testing, I set up an account that follows a spectrum of voices, some of which constantly spill hate and trollish remarks. Regardless of their true intent, their aim seems clear: to turn the platform into a hostile environment for certain users.

Now, there's a significant difference between censorship and personal autonomy. Censorship restricts expression, while personal autonomy is about choosing who we invite into our intimate spaces, like our living rooms. Social media is a paradox; it's both a bustling town square and our private living room. It has the power to connect us to the masses or bridge a conversation with someone miles away. This duality makes it even more imperative to equip users with tools to shape their online environments and manage their digital communities. It's not about stifling voices, but ensuring our living rooms remain our sanctuaries.

In essence, and to misquote Clint Eastwood, while the world is vast, when it comes to my online living room, I demand the right to tell trolls to "get off my front lawn," and I desire the mechanisms to uphold that boundary.

I published my first nostr-centric package 📦 yesterday. It takes large (or any sized) file(s) and splits them into small base64-encoded kind 5391 "BLOB" chunks. It lets you retrieve and reassemble these files super easily. This is the 80 IQ files-on-nostr solution. I needed it for a hackathon project, so I built it. Enjoy:

https://github.com/arkin0x/nostr-chunkey-monkey

This package needs more testing and might be rough around the edges because I've never published a TypeScript package before. PRs welcome as always! #chunkeymonkey


Consider my relay to be the one for APAC. Already being leveraged by Mostr and Gossip.


Marketing for Nostr isn't necessary when you have a provable mission. Does HTTPS have a marketing team? Any marketing needed will be as a by-product for microservices. And tbh they don't even need to mention Nostr at all. The same way no website today markets any of its various protocols or languages used. I think we need to start decoupling the protocol from the end products if we want Nostr to succeed.

The future of #anon chat with #Nostr:

- Spin up a throwaway #relay using sats
- Download https://0xChat.com mobile app
- Send contact(s) the relay address
- Remove default relays, add throwaway
- Burn the relay when done


btw, feel free to add my relay as a default on 0xChat for all users if you like. It's also used by other projects such as Gossip client and Mostr (mastodon bridge).

wss://nostr.coinfundit.com


Thank you to everyone for providing testing and feedback. The #0xchat v1.2.1 beta version has been updated with the following:

1.Fixed several bugs, including:

-Optimized startup animation loading.
-Improved app startup performance.
-Resolved issues related to disappearing messages.
-Fixed certain bugs in voice & video calls.
-Addressed DNS setup failure.
-Rectified problems with self-sent messages and secret chats.

2.Voice & video calls now include ICE services from five additional continents by default. Users have the flexibility to add or remove custom ICE services as needed.

3.Introduced profile and channel QR code sharing, complemented by a new H5 UI.

True. From an SEO perspective, it'll get beat out by high DA results for just "Nostr" I imagine. Have any ideas for new name?

HTTPS has fully replaced HTTP. Most web traffic nowadays is encrypted but still not yet signed.

Nostr is just the beginning of a new signed web. Once we get going, people won't just trust servers anymore.

 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.

Unfortunately, there exists propaganda from both sides. This one is being used incorrectly by Pro-Palestinian supporters to falsely portray as if that’s the portion of land only left for Palestinian people.

Instead, what it actually represents on the map is the historical development of Palestinian/Arab political control in the region. It wasn’t even until 1994 that a Palestinian actually ruled over any of the land.

That’s what it’s showing. Also, the “today” period depicted here is actually showing from 2007. You can use Google maps or any other map online and it correctly shows it as the map originally used by OP in this thread.

Hoping for peace one day for all involved 🙏🤙

The Pirate Bay is probably one of the best examples.


If a project is simply using BTC/LN as a payment mechanism, it is not decentralized.

The entirety of the project must be decentralized, even down to who deploys its code.

Using centralized infra like AWS, is a weak link. Using a singular domain name is a weak link. The list goes on.

Most of what we have today is still faux decentralization.


It's funny, now they care about Terrorists using Twitter. Before they were let free to spout their nonsense while others who weren't on the political left were silenced for simply trying to find out "what is a woman". This is probably just optics to win virtue signalling brownie points.

Nice. Does each element have a unique ID like IPFS and it's CIDs? If so, can an element be updated while keeping the same ID? That's been one annoyance with IPFS is the ID change on every push.

Freedom is a state of mind, not a material or financial condition. You know nothing of my consciousness, nor could you. Look into your own self and ask if you are free.


For the record, I am against the Russian invasion of Ukraine. But, I am cognizant of the pressure placed on Russia by the US and Ukraine as a pawn in the proxy war.

So, I can see from the perspective of Russia for the invasion. Similarly, Iran using Hamas as a pawn to proxy war against Israel. But I am saddened by how many innocent lives have/will be taken in the offensive against Gaza.


The mental gymnastics to think "Israel had it coming", but not applying the same logic to Ukraine, is pretty interesting to watch.

I try to remain as unbiased as possible, despite one group who'd want to kill me. Whereas the other, would allow my secular lifestyle.

With that prefaced, we're dealing with religious ideology, making an already tough situation (disputed land) even more difficult.

The Israelites were mostly a nomadic tribe within the region until conquering and building up the kingdom of Israel through David, Solomon, etc.

The land was later conquered by the Romans and much granted to the neighboring Arabs as time passed. The Israelites dreamed of a Messiah to take them to the new kingdom of Israel ("the promised land"), free from the Roman occupation.

Did you know the word Messiah, to Jews, doesn't mean "God"? There were many Messianic people before and after Jesus. Most Jews had hoped Jesus was the militaristic Messiah they wanted, to fight the Romans. You should look up it's definition if you're curious.

Fast track to a few decades ago and the British had laid siege to much of the land and decided to grant a portion of it to the Ashkenazi Jews fleeing Europe. This was part of the Zionist movement, seeing a new Israel created (to help fulfill alleged prophecy).

As you'd expect, the current occupants of the land couldn't have cared whether or not the ancestors of the newly arrived Jews had once lived there. As such, there began a war, and ironically in the first war even more land was conquered for Israel than would otherwise have been given to them from the beginning.

Now today, you have two parts of Palestine; the smaller Gaza (controlled by Hamas) and the West Bank (controlled by PLO). Hamas are a terrorist organisation, who've supposedly been selected by the people to lead them. They have decided to ignore any possibility for peace. The PLO on the other hand have claimed to want to seek peaceful relationships and remain with the current territories.

Hamas are much like that of any urban combatant and will seek shelter in hospitals, schools, homes, etc in order for maximum collateral damage of innocent lives. Not very good people. They also happen to be financed through Iran. In the way the US is in a proxy war with Russia, you have Iran now in a proxy war with Israel.

I sort have breezed through a lot of the history, but this is essentially the TL;DR on centuries of details and why it likely won't end until one side wins 😪 (because religion).

I keep saying it, because it's true and needs to happen, #Amethyst is the best #Nostr client

Wos mate wos


Piped the features of GOS and ios lockdown mode to GPT and asked which is more secure. Interestingly, it gave a solid answer at the end.

------

When comparing the security of GrapheneOS and iOS with Lockdown Mode, it's important to consider that both platforms use different approaches to enhance user privacy and security.

**GrapheneOS** is an open source, privacy- and security-focused mobile OS based on Android. It offers features like hardened memory allocator, app sandboxing, secure network and GPS handling, and regular security updates. It also avoids including services that could compromise privacy and allows users granular control over permissions. However, its effectiveness also relies on the user's ability to manage these controls and maintain the system properly.

On the other hand, **iOS with Lockdown Mode** is a proprietary system that introduces extreme security measures to protect against highly targeted and sophisticated attacks. Lockdown Mode limits the functionality of certain apps and device features to reduce the potential attack surface. This includes restrictions on message attachments, website technologies, FaceTime calls, photo sharing, device connections, and more.

When Lockdown Mode is enabled, an iOS device provides a strong level of protection against cyber threats, especially for individuals at high risk of being targeted. However, it also significantly changes the way the device functions and limits its usability for everyday tasks.

In terms of security, both GrapheneOS and iOS with Lockdown Mode provide robust protections. However, which one is "more secure" can depend on the specific use case, threat model, and user's technical expertise:

- If the user is a high-profile target facing sophisticated, targeted threats and needs the device mainly for basic communication and tasks, iOS with Lockdown Mode may provide stronger protections due to its extreme security measures.

- If the user requires more control over their device, values open-source principles, and is technically capable of managing the system, GrapheneOS might be more suitable.

It's also important to remember that no system can provide perfect security. The user's behavior and practices play a significant role in maintaining the security of their device.

Education for good OpSec


Good point. Could stop form submission if an entry field includes a anything prefixed with "nsec". The only problem is some folks have also submitted the hex version of their nsec 😂 and that's nearly impossible to block


Helpstr when


Who did the Nostr Design site? It’s great. We should make sure more people see it.

https://nostrdesign.org


You could run a relay on a RasPi if you wanted. It just needs a basic webserver (nginx, caddy, apache) and a domain with SSL cert installed so connections over websocket secure (WSS) can be made.

Disk space and resources can depend on a couple factors including the lang that it was written in and the database. I’ve found the relay written in Rust with SQLite to be more performant and low-resource consumption than one written in Typescript and using Postgres.

And then it also depends on the type of NIPs the relay allows, which will dictate the sort of content stored on the relay. Also factor in number of connections using the relay, if it’s mirroring another relay, and/or if it supports hosted media like NIP-95.


This? https://github.com/greenart7c3/Amber


No worries! I recommend checking out this part on “bare keys”

https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/blob/master/19.md


The sheer number of people who have submitted their privkey/nsec for verification on https://verified-nostr.com is quite staggering. And that’s despite a bold, red message to only send the pubkey in hex.

Fortunately for them, I ensure those submissions are discarded. That said, there really should be a better way for key management and/or training for new folks to realize the privkey/nsec is basically their password.


Imagine a full sanction from the US government. Microsoft and GitLab takes down all Nostr related repos. Apple/Google pull client apps from their stores. Relays hosted in "14+ eyes" countries forced to shutdown.

We didn't think the US or allies would target Tornado Cash like it did. The way that developer was arrested for writing code should be a wake up call to everyone.

Israel has just approved formal declaration of war. The attack by Hamas is strategically unlike any they've done before; more precise, organized, and sophisticated.

Some are speculating the attack by Hamas is being funded by Iran due to recent Biden admin releasing $6 billion.

Either way, my thoughts are with the innocents caught in the mess.

Not sure yet. Interested?


Yes, if done right. Since amethyst was built in Kotlin, a dev can use Android studio to build from the repo and then use the Kotlin cross-platform module to prep for iOS

New Bounty alert! 1M SATs to whoever can port our code to Compose Multiplatform first and then prepare the version for iOS.

I am happy to help if somebody wants to take the lead on this.

Amethyst is a leading Nostr client for Android. It has robust features and is open source: https://github.com/vitorpamplona/amethyst

iOS users are missing out on this amazing Nostr client. Other clients on iOS do not even come close to the number of features available in Amethyst.

This client must exist on iOS. I have an Apple developer account, but need to have Amethyst's Kotlin code ported to support cross-platform and ensure feature parity with the iOS framework.

The app's .IPA file must also be provided so that side-loading can be done by end-users. This way, zaps can remain within the app and subvert Apple's ban.

One possibility. The native Americans have tales of the "ant people" who were exactly like that.


There are some mental gymnastics that people go through for the sake of seeing a dollar amount sent and it remaining the same figure when received


The reason they all look humanoid, and the partial reason JFK was killed, is that it's humans from the future. There's nothing else out there but us and ourselves from the future, creating paradoxes and influencing history. Free will doesn't exist in our timeline.


Supposedly, they're rebuilding from scratch and will have some big changes coming soon

Lmao I thought Dylan had looked familiar before. Now i see why 😂


Ah I found it, hmm

https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/05/15/gun-show-customers-fear-society/


The fact that Bitcoin isn't yet accepted everywheree and for everything really underlines for me how few people have actually used Lightning. Whenever I show somebody how it works, there's always that "wow" moment. But why was it a surprise?

The problem is that normal people still understand BTC from the one half-remembered opinion piece they read in 2017, and are operating under the belief that transactions still take an hour to settle, rather than being instantaneous and irreversible — money transmission without the Paypal Problem. The public mind needs a cache refresh.


what’s the word?


https://www.techmeme.com/230908/p26 #a230908p26


But, I think this is telling of the overall UX for Nostr clients. If we want to have the Nostr protocol attain mainstream success and attract normies, we’ll need to oversimplify things. Part of that will make the pub/priv keygen, etc almost invisible to the end-user.


The number of folks who have submitted their privkey for NIP-05 verification is astounding…

This looks awesome. So the benefit is your Nostr client only needs to poll the single websocket, which should reduce bandwidth (as the node.js server does the heavy lifting) and maybe even saves some battery life?

Let's talk #phishing on #nostr

The art of the catch is in being as deceitful as possible and mimicking something familiar that your target takes the bait.

Nostr clients (at least the web ones) allow you to login to someone else's account as read-only mode.

You can see their notifications and even see who has messaged them. It's even possible to know who the target replied back to, as standard message bubbles give it away.

https://imgur.com/a/uraDw64

Of course, the contents of messages cannot be read, as they're encrypted.

But, if you're farming for victims to pwn, and you see they DM'd an "influencer", it'd be easy to create a clone account of the influencer, register a near-match domain, get it NIP-05'd and then send your targets a DM.

I'd venture to guess not many (at least not many of the technologically inept) would take the time to validate the pubkey.

It would be great if there could be some sort of secondary auth for viewing notifications/messages when in read-only mode. Not the privkey, but a password or something else only the account owner would know.

This way, the account can remain in read-only mode without the ability to sign messages, but the things that should remain private, stay private and less susceptible to being used as phish bait.

As the saying goes, "trust, but verify". Stay vigilant #nostriches and ensure whoever DMs or replies to you is really who you think it is. There will always be malicious actors, but you can prep to combat them!


KYC Bitcoin: Individuals are on Lists

-----------------------------

What is KYC/AML?
	•	The acronym stands for Know Your Customer / Anti Money Laundering.
	•	In practice it stands for the surveillance measures companies are often compelled to take against their customers by financial regulators.
	•	Methods differ but often include: Passport Scans, Driver License Uploads, Social Security Numbers, Home Address, Phone Number, Face Scans.
	•	Bitcoin companies will also store all withdrawal and deposit addresses which can then be used to track bitcoin transactions on the bitcoin block chain.
	•	This data is then stored and shared. Regulations often require companies to hold this information for a set number of years but in practice users should assume this data will be held indefinitely. Data is often stored insecurely, which results in frequent hacks and leaks.
	•	KYC/AML data collection puts all honest users at risk of theft, extortion, and persecution while being ineffective at stopping crime. Criminals often use counterfeit, bought, or stolen credentials to get around the requirements. Criminals can buy "verified" accounts for as little as $200.

During the early days of bitcoin most services did not require this sensitive user data, but as adoption increased so did the surveillance measures. At this point, most large bitcoin companies are collecting and storing massive lists of bitcoiners, our sensitive personal information, and our transaction history.

Lists of Bitcoiners

KYC/AML policies are a direct attack on bitcoiners. Lists of bitcoiners and our transaction history will inevitably be used against us.

Once you are on a list with your bitcoin transaction history that record will always exist. Generally speaking, tracking bitcoin is based on probability analysis of ownership change. Surveillance firms use various heuristics to determine if you are sending bitcoin to yourself or if ownership is actually changing hands.  You can obtain better privacy going forward by using collaborative transactions such as coinjoin to break this probability analysis.

Fortunately, you can buy bitcoin without providing intimate personal information. Tools such as peach, hodlhodl, robosats, and bisq help; mining is also a solid option: anyone can plug a miner into power and internet and earn bitcoin by mining privately.

You can also earn bitcoin by providing goods and/or services that can be purchased with bitcoin. Long term, circular economies will mitigate this threat: most people will not buy bitcoin - they will earn bitcoin - most people will not sell bitcoin - they will spend bitcoin.

There is no such thing as KYC or No KYC bitcoin, there are bitcoiners on lists and those that are not on lists. 🤙
