 Alexander the Great!

Over the span of a decade, he led around 40,000 soldiers on a campaign that left an indelible mark on the world, shaping its course for centuries, if not eternity.

I think this documentary captures it pretty well.

 I still remember the trauma from Dark Souls, making games that difficult should be a crime.

 Welcome, let us know if you need any help navigating this place. 
 This was the one of the most magnificent fight. 

On one side was Khamzat, one of the most feared fighters, and on the other side was Gilbert, who fears no one. It was a war!

Now it's also freely available on YT, "sensitive content warning"

 Unpopular opinion: the nostr apps that become sustainable, will likely be funded with boring old ... 
 Lightning-based subscriptions can work more efficiently than our traditional system. 

Just like one-click Zap, you should be able to create subscriptions in one click using Nostr wallet connect. 

But still Bitcoin is very neche for most of the people. So I get your point.

 They suddenly realize that there is a very large and influential space they don't really control much, so they have started capturing it.

The problem with states everywhere is that they want to control every single aspect of your life.

 For some completely stupid reason, he lost his entire livelihood in seconds. Very scary when you think about it.

Nostr fixes this!

 Yes, but it keeps your contacts. So, even if some third-party CDN refuses to provide your services, you can change to another one and still have your audience.

Personally, I like this model. Hosting videos on 'distributed' relays is a nightmare.

 The integration of Habla with a highlighter is quite cool. I'm wondering if it's possible to integrate this feature with NostrNet so that we can have the highlight option available across all Nostr WebApps. πŸ€”

First I will give it a try with my current inbuilt note extension.

This guy is going to single-handedly destroy his local ecosystem & recreate the plague of frogs from the Book of Exodus. He isn't a menace, he's an outright villain. πŸ˜‘

Seriously, how is this even legal, isn't this bio-terrorism. Millions of frogs are going to get killed on roads. He does this every year. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

 He breeds millions of frogs in his backyard pool and then releases them in the neighborhood every year.

 In every civilized society, this should be illegal. He is getting paid for this, as it's his content. It's very disturbing when you think about it. 
 I love this kind of content. Btw 2nd part is really good but don't skip the first one.

 I made two changes to NostrNet.work, one of the change was philosophically very important for me:

First: I replaced my previous backup service with a new one and also added OddBean.

Second: From now on, as you start adding new links to NostrNet, I can't add any new apps to your dashboard. Even if I keep new app as default, you won't see them unless you click "reset" or add them manually. 

This change prioritizes user control, I can't randomly add any web app to your custom dashboard. 
 Shortlinks are very unsafe; you never know where they are going to take you. I always stay away from them. 
 Jingles has done absolutely amazing job with his service.  Linkshorters are Inherently unsafe. 
 I concur, the user bears the ultimate responsibility. By the way it's not something specific to your service. I really think you have done a great job. If used with responsibility it can be a great tool. 
 That will solve a lot of problems. 
 K2 is the second-highest mountain, but it is also the most difficult and deadly one. 

Summiting it is considered the highest badge of honor for any mountaineer across the world. It's majestic. 

These are the kinds of mountains I grew up with. It's in my home state.

 One of the most brutal bear fights I have seen. Serious power on display.

 True, it's hard for us to even comprehend the sheer power and speed they possess.

 There can be so many reasons territorial or even to just established the dominance. They are fascinating creatures. 
 It's very intense πŸ˜… 
 You get it, bears are highly intelligent fighters and grapplers. Some people in Russia, especially in Dagestan, use small bears to practice their Sambo fighting style.

 Next update, NostrSync backup service will come with custom relays option, along with the capability to store backups obtained from external sources. 

This app allows you to fetch, download, manage, update, and broadcast your Nostr data across all existing relays without any external servers. More to come! πŸ€™

 After this update you will be able to broadcast notes to selected relays. Custom broadcast is also coming soon you will be able to specify particular kinds of events. And I will see if it's possible to also provide simple way to broadcast selected events.

 I'm fine, thanks for asking. It's very beautiful btw. 
 Art truly brings new meaning to our lives. Our ancestors fought against evils and totalitarians through art. Art is incredibly powerful.

 Couldn't agree more! 🀣🀣 
 This looks unreal, ngl. 🀣🀣 
 I have seen these stats. I think many factors contributed to this, from the economy to culture. 

Not to mention, for a long period of time, they were disenfranchised in society and terrorized by every single institution. No one disagrees with that. Those things shaped their culture and their societies around them. 

Does it justify the crime someone is doing today? Absolutely not. But blaming everything on race is just not right.

Personally, I can't hate or judge a person just based on how they look. 
 The problem with generalization is that there are many young Black youths contributing to society, both in the military and in the fight against this unfair financial system along with us. 

Saying that a person is inherently violent or a bad element just because of the color of their skin is very disrespectful towards our fellow members, imo. And I think it's also very lazy. 
 Generalization works great with less complex objects, but when it comes to humans, we are very complex. Even my brother has a completely different experience and understanding of life than I do.
