I'm surprised how functional nostr, lightning and ecash are. Successfully sent some zaps, converted to ecash, send some free ecash without fees, converted back to lightning.
Only problem is the whole thing is so damn complicated, not sure how the Normie's are ever gonna grok whats going on.
Ridiculous on so many levels. As someone dealing with kids and tech I can tell you the problem is not social media, its readily accessible tech in general, and the biggest problem is the schools demanding kids need a laptop, ipad, phone and açcounts with Microsoft , google, gmail etc. The tech is so woven into the system its impossible to stop kids from getting sucked in to all sorts of tech related addictions.
Yup, western governments are too large, and are too tempting for large groups to form in an attempt to wield its emence power. Small government, decentralized governance is the solution.
Agreed about email decentralization, it certainly has failed. However 50 years of global adoption is pretty impressive, I'm surprized it survived as long as it did. Seems to be the natural cycle of things
I be sending zaps, but how to receive? Is it possible with self custodial wallets like pheonix? nostr:nprofile1qqsyvrp9u6p0mfur9dfdru3d853tx9mdjuhkphxuxgfwmryja7zsvhqpz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejj7qghwaehxw309amxjar0wghxummnw3erztnrdakj7qgwwaehxw309ahx7uewd3hkctc6ljg69
If you ONLY paid attention to criminals and had no other moral framework to compare against you would most likely copy them. Its the exposure to ALL ideas he is promoting, not just the curated.
Well he may or may not deliver on those promises, but Biden definitely wont and i dont see any other viable contenders! Vote him in for now and challenge him once he's in.
I dont like Telegram or Signal that much, however its good to have a diversified software ideology, Signal being western aligned, Telegram being eastern even if the founder had to flee russia. I dont mind simple-x, but no one outside of tech nerds use it.
In what way? The efficiency of the DHT and gosssip protocols need a little improvement but the standards for making interoperable hashed content seem to be a good foundation to build from
Its a good plan except for one major problem, communism is bourne out of the feminine psyche rooting for equality. It will rise again in your segregated utopia unfortunately.
