if the images are hosted on *your* relay, they won't be removed (until you're arrested).
many images go into nostr.build or primal, and it's completely their choice to remove them for any reason (relays wouldn't know the URL in the notes are suddenly dead though, so do your part & report the notes if you see them)
Doing absolutely nothing is economically retarded. That's why it's hard. Greatness doesn't await; it'll pass you by while you struggle living in self-imposed imbalance.
Go do something else. Do it well. Any other course of (in)action is inferior.
There are two #scifi movies that (minor spoiler) share the same weird universe.
On the surface, and taken separately, these two films aren't that impressive. They stand alone & work well enough alone, but each one adds just enough to the other one that it puts both films over the top for me, and makes the overarching story that much more satisfying

What is a thing you can push structured data into & pull structured data out of? Message Queue? Event-processing middleware?
Should we find a better word for a nostr node than "relay"? 🤔
Twitter solved this resource problem easily, their closed source client and their single central relay is usually very fast..but it does need a database.😉
It is remarkable how few quantum physicists spend their time trying to refute einsteins relativity. There's a lesson there.
We can choose to watch our movie with a red tint, or we can watch it with a blue tint. Or I dunno, maybe we can use both lenses together and watch the movie in 3D!
I watched it on mute, so I probably missed the background of this solution, but it looks super easy & secure! I'm gonna go do this to all of my yubikeys!

Damage that will be done, unburdened by the lessons of damage that was done in the past
The good, often necessary balancing forces are being twisted as "burdens" to society, so bad things can seem acceptable
Like "genocide, unburdened by morality" or "theft, unburdened by consequences" or "reserve currency monopoly, unburdened by physical constraints"
Double ratchet like Signal, but with a decentralized pool of open source relays instead of just Signal dot org really is a solid solution. That's what drew me to #simplex (the herpetic name didn't help at all). #keychat is another one that uses double ratchet; the relays are nostr relays.
I'd urge caution with newer, less studied apps. Signal has gone through a lot of due diligence so far. Still, the fact you can self host is an immediate plus
2 ways of expressing the astronomically huge **secret** number.
Binary, base 2 is another. Hexadecimal is base 16, thats another. English would be another; this is how bitcoin keys are expressed as 24 words!
Your **super super secret key number** can only ever be "seen" through some "mask"
nsec is one kind of mask, the default for nostr keys. hex is another. binary, english, etc, other possibilities. Humans in our heads default how we mask stuff to base 10, decimal, in our routine thinking & daily affairs, because of fingers I guess 😏. For nostr, nsec makes more sense for a bunch of reasons
It doesn't matter which mask someone sees the ***I can't stress how secret it is*** number through; they can always translate it once the secret is seen through any encoded form! English to binary is how computers work today after all, they can do a lot more "mask switching" than that 😉
Keep the secret, secret!
It depends how you use your account. I'd say browser extensions like #alby are fine for most. #Amber on android serves the same purpose for android apps, but is more private (no 3rd party account).
The idea is to only paste your secret key into one trusted place, and let every other app ask that app to sign your events for broadcast.
Everything in computers is encoded in binary with 1s & 0s.
But to answer, the extension doesn't give your secret to apps at all. The other way, apps will say to the extension "sarah wants to post this recipe, please 'sign' it so I can post it to the relays and they know its from the right account"
The secret never leaves the extension. Once you paste the secret into the extension to store it, you really shouldn't paste it into anything else (except another trusted thing like amber).
5,6 no, but the rest yes. See the first word in each sentence.
