 Por isso que mulheres não devem ser tomadoras de decisões. 
 Lembrou aquela frase do Ford sobre cores de carros, e como  todos poderiam escolher a sua, desde que fosse preto.

 KEEP NOSTR SIMPLE

VOTE “NO” ON THE EDITS REFERENDUM 
 Maybe clients can just implement a post type that paraes a link to some hosted url where the user can edit its content. Relays could sell the hosting space for the editable/deletable posts feature to be stored on the relay. Advantage is there’s no need to change the basics of nostr protocol, only clients need to agree on a new post type. 
 *post type that ‘parses’ a link 
 🙏🏻 
 Maybe if you exercised your own “shitty mind” you would understand that a link is not centralization. I’ll let you figure out the details.

Both are us... 
 I think he means the torrent protocol has been already validated in the wild, so it’s verifiable in the historical sense?

 Another idea is to have relays that congregate around local communities, that is, they accept only posts from people that verify their location at least once.

Ephemeral location filtering seems like it matches only with dating apps usage… 
 If abortion is good, why do politicans keep calling it "reproductive health"?

 Bitcoin promises sound too good to be true. 
 It’s a dig on your “common sense” argument. The “common sense” is driven by mass media, and what is common today is absolutely bonkers for someone a few years ago. Common sense is not a measuring stick. 
 What most people refer as common sense is the Christian world view that has built the World. But that is going out the window nowadays, mate. 
 Nothing that will last for too long, hopefully.

 These stupid nostr links don’t work. They are not even complete URIs, why is everything here like reinventing wheels?

 Is using nostr really about reinventing all the wheels?

 All big websites now are “application platforms” that spin up databases in the browser and run object code with justintime compiling. Hardly any “text and images” websites anymore.

 The expectation for a technology to be the source of truth seems to be wholly misplaced. 
 An idea would be to host am “offline” community relay, with connectivity to meshtastic devices in remote places, such that people can communicate with each other. Would work great in _emergency_ situations too.
