 Lol.

Now show us hybrid.  
 OK is this real, or satire?

I'm good with either answer.  
 Forget The President, look at the backup.

Its Elon Musk, Vivek, Ron Paul and JD Vance 

Vs

Ushe... 
 It isn't a competition for who should run the country. Its all an elaborate show for debt slavery entertainment. 

What is going to happen is predetermined. All we can do is sit back and watch the show. 

Nothing is real. The world has gone insane.  
 The funny thing is we have all become so desperate and reached the fuck it point. It wouldn't matter if they made it illegal. We would still use it without skippinh a beat. The occurances of boating accidents involving bitcoin wallets would become more common than car accidents overnight.  
 They haven't changed. They are just desperate now and will say anything to save their own asses from going out of business, or being in jail. For when they are no longer able to hide the truth with their constant lies. We see them for who they are right along with the rest of the mainstream legacy media. 

Enemies of we the people. No longer deserving of trust. Only justice and karma for their crimes.  
 Vitor. Creator of Amethyst. 

For fucks sake man fix this persistent bug. Make it a mother fucking priority. It is beyond  maddening. I'm going to wind up chucking my phone at the fucking wall, because of it. 

When you are responding to someone's posts and you are already scrolled way down on the timeline. You will get booted out of typing a response if you take too long, because the timeline loads more posts instead. Then you can't go back to finish your response either. 

Holy fuck this happens almost every day. Have mercy and make this madness stop. Please I beg of you man.  

#Amethyst 
 I am on version 0.91.0-Fdroid. 
 The issue there is that while it will return to the draft. The post becomes a fresh note and not a response to someone when I press the back button. 

One possible coding solution to this bug would be to implement this condition. That if a person is opening up a note, pause the incoming feed, and resume it once the note has been posted, saved as a draft, or exited completely. Not sure how to do this in kotlin, but it should be easy enough to accomplish.

There is no reason for posts to be loading anyway when you are already focused on responding to someone. This should resolve the issue gracefully.  
 What is the most up to date version of Amethyst that is currently available on Fdroid?

I updated my standard fdroid repositories and there are no updates currently available.  
 Thank you for letting me know that. Any clue why fdroid is always so behind on the updates?

I try to be diligent with updating my software. Ive added obtanium and used it to update Amethyst to the latest version. 

I will report back to you if updating resolves the bug issue ive been experiencing. Thank you so much for your promptness and willingness to help me resolve this matter. Take care, stay excellent, and have a wonderful day.  
 The mental illness known as liberalism is incompatible with your determination of reality.  For it is one of the main root causes of why bureaucracy and state insufficiency exist in the first place. This post reads like a proud vegan advodacting for us to eat meat. Perplexing and hypocritical. 

Leave the mental illness known as liberalism behind. It will only handicap your attempts to better yourself. You are on the right path, but it is time to wash off all that liberalism shit, because it all stinks to high heaven. 

No more brainwashing. Time to think for yourself now. Dare to ask questions, use logic, and reason daily. Live a virtuous life.  
 What is this? 
 Meh. I am genuinely interested in what this post is. Not judging the one who posted it.  
 I cannot wait to drink coffee. 
 Me too.  
 Holy fuck. That kid is awesome.  
 Honestly, would they even listen?

If you can tell her in a caring compassionate way go for it. If you are planning an I told you so response, don't. They are already suffering the consequences of their actions enough.  
 When you learned to count, did you start at 0 or 1?

#askstr #asknostr 
 1.

0 is actually an abstract concept. For how can you count nothing when it doesn't exist? 
 You may be able to calculate a fraction of something. However calculation any fraction of zero is impossible. For there is nothing that can be divided up into smaller parts when there is nothing which exists in the first place.  
 I'm just sick of all the pathetic attempts at promoting propaganda on Nostr.

Y'all suck at it. We know what you are doing. That is why many of us are here in the first place. Please kindly fuck off to where you came from. You're wasting your time here. 
 I think Genrative AI was invented so that people can waste more time on front of their phones, ta... 
 I think it was invented for nefarious purposes a long time ago. A technology in use for potentially decades to pull the wool over our eyes so completely. That we would believe anything and react to it as if it were real. The public was just allowed to have access to it recently. For the purpose of allowing we the people to see first hand what this is capable of. 

Only then could we start to ask more questions and believe how this technology has been used as the ultimate propaganda. To create, control, and maintain many agendas. 

Why did all this happen? I have theories, but there is so much misinformation. I couldn't begin to conclude any of them are true yet.

 My response would have been you are grounded.  
 Cool. I have superpowers.  
 How do you remain kind when your default modes is anger, self loathing, and melancholy?

Life in the Greater Depression is rough for me right now. I decided today that I can't keep my job for health reasons.

Sometimes I come on Nostr looking to vent and fight with polar opposites to me. I hate it. Don't know how to change myself, or my attitude during these dark times in my life.  
 It was good. There was of course a couple obligatory woke catchphrases, propaganda, and bullshit. Even the actors looked like they were bored and tired of being forced to say the lines.

Other than that I found it enjoyable, hilarious, a little traumatic, and horrifying. Very much a good successor to the original. 

8/10 Personal Rating. 

P:S: The minus 2 points was for the 2 minutes of woke shit we all had to suffer through. If it wasn't for that I would say it was as good as the original. Very surprised.  
 Different strokes for different folks. 
 Kinda don’t want to sleep, I don’t know where I go when I dream #dreamstr 
 You go into a reality created by the imagination of your mind. Where anything is possible.  
 Can someone explain why I start a project, go full steam, lose focus, lose direction, lose self confidence, and then the universe tries to keep me from completing my goals?

I feel like either I am afraid of success, or something else is afraid of me becoming successful? I dunno this is me venting into the Nostr void. 

I just want to create something meaningful that helps many people. Then if those people found value in my help they would help me too. 

If you have any advice for a lost soul asking tough questions like this and you have some advice. Please reach out to me. I could use some help right about now.  
 Dude... This is horrible. Don't post this kind of shit please.

 We see through your propaganda post. We've built up a natural immunity to this bullshit. Stop. 
 We need to see more closures on that list. Lol 
 I think Ive reached the fuck it point.  
 No idea what that is. Why do you want me to use it and connect with you on it?

 Lmao!!!

Guess they don't want to freeze to death this winter. Fastest folding bluff of the week.  
 Just please stop posting non stop propaganda all day long. Try something different and more meaningful with your life. Have a wonderful day.  
 Many times I am reminded of my perpetually drunk aunt when I read this ex hookers headlines.

 That's not screaming. Its the sound of the money printers going full throttle with a loose bearing.

 I use it daily. What is wrong with it?

As far as donations go. It really depends on the individuals. Many times they don't want the money due to tax and legal implications. Other times it may be due to privacy and security violation related issues. Some dont want to feel like coder whores for hire, because this is a passion project developed at a self pace. Every project has their reasons. Not all of them make sense.  
 My life is perfect!!

 Sarcasm?

 Pandering yes, but if a bitcoin is mined here in the USA. Then couldn't you say it was made in the USA too?  
 Statist..... I don't think I fit into that category.

It is my firm belief that humanity has not figured out any system which actually works yet. When that is finally invented I may become that. What it is, who the fuck knows. Until then I'm on the sidelines waiting for everyone else to figure their shit out. 

For now I am just a debt slave hoping one day to become truly free from any system that seeks to keep enslaving us all. Trying to become fully free in my mind so that one day I may also be in body too. Just trying to survive now until i can discover how to thrive. 

My response was more of a pondering of if he is actually right purely on a technicality. Nothing more and nothing less implied.  
 Holy shit... The moon really is artificial... 
 Oh I agree that it is a lot to unpack. Its just what the fuck is it then?
