They absolutely should not be! I'm 100% with you on that. But try telling that to the idiots and predators of the internet and you might find they don't agree with us, and they are so underdeveloped that I fear some will never learn. Therefore we need to protect ourselves against them.

Know your enemy, that is my point.

I had a Rage Against the Machine t-shirt with this on it as a teen and I wore that thing into dust! 😆 by end of life it was a wife beater and super faded. Best T-shirt ever, RIP 🥲🪦🕯


You know... this has been running around in my mind recently, and I honestly think we're on the cusp between the bottom situation and the top... I mean times honestly are tougher right now than they have been for like the past 70 years... at least economically speaking.

The #Bloomer is the strong man resulting from hard times 💪🏼😄 or maybe i'm too optimistic

Staying humble... stacking the dip.


I'm a bit concerned over the centralisation of great minds and the potential for a boating accident 😬🤣


Only after studying bitcoin it became clear to me why schools avoid the topic of money like it’s the plague, once people start questioning the money they're using i'ts game over for the state very quick.  #bitcoin

I was under the impression coinjoining somehow didn't fully absolve you from the coins? Am I mistaken, is it a clean slate?


Do you have a link for an instructional on how to de-KYC some sats? I know someone with an old, compromised HODL who might like it cleaned 😆


You know, before I had really put my time in with Bitcoin there was a little while where I was really concerned it was a manifestation of the antichrist, precisely for the fact that it seemed so many people worshipped it along with materialistic thinking.
I can happily say nowadays that I think it is much more likely a gift from God to help fight the corrupt and demonic fiat system which has reigned over us for far too long, bring back #GodsMoney!

You create a seperate entity which provides an "essential service" to the non-profit and then pay the seperate entity for that service? 😅


Exactly, it takes both luck and knowledge.

Thank you for the info 👌🏼 sounds good 😊


As a father of a daughter I find this a very compelling topic. I want very badly for her to grow up in a world where everybody respects everybody, and I will fight for her in that regard unceasingly, but I believe that the actual, total, global attainment of this to be a delusion of the modern age, the best we can hope for is to attain this within our local communities, certainly not in the world wide web. So perhaps consider this private node model for a similar effect?

When interacting with the wider world, modesty is a completely reasonable solution if you are apprehensive of the consequences. You cannot lay bait in the wild and subsequently be surprised at the arrival of a predator. Not all people are Human, too many are closer to animals.

Do not go to sea without navigational aids... do not go to the northern forests without protection from bears.
This is Earth, not Heaven. We must temper our expectations and act accordingly.

I do agree with your suggestions around 2-way mutes if it is possible, although a good point is made about silent observers, you might not even know they are there but this relay specific posting developed by nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s looks like it will be very helpful to your cause.

I wish you the utmost best in your struggles truely 🙏🏼


(On mobile web app)
I like the concept, but currently it is quite confusing:

- The very first thing I had to do was go to the learn more link, this should not be the first point of call for any website, the home page should already lay the foundation with the learn more page there for those wishing to go deeper. Consider a slightly more informative welcome screen.

- I have no idea what will happen when I press links, but I should already have some expectation of what will happen when a link is selected. Small descriptions below the most important links would help this.

-The big button on the right which says dealer, I suppose it should say trader?

- The navigation bar at the bottom provides too few insights to this effect also. It appears one of the buttons will take me to information about Sega dreamcast? 😆 I think emoticons as hyperlinks may not be the best solution. Perhaps custom designed images could serve your purpose better? Or just good old fashion plain text with some aesthetically designed buttons.

- Seems as though the Auto-scaling is off, I need to scroll a small step left and right in order to see the whole page, also the bottom navigation bar is off centre
centre.

- When I select links from the bottom navigation bar, they open as layers instead of redirecting to a new page. This means when I select the X to close that layer I should go back to home screen but instead it appears that all the layers are stacked below and I have to X them all. Perhaps one layer at a time would be better (closing the previous layer when opening the new).

- Engineer seems to be the only role which does anything, there are no modules under creator or dealer.

- I see that an LLM is being used "behind the scenes" however I think it should either be more behind the scenes or less behind the scenes. Prompts appear for a moment and dissappear before I can actually read them, they should either remain visible or else not be visible at all if they are unimportant. If LLM is being utilised there should perhaps be a seperate chat function where questions can be asked about the subject being studied.

To summarise, I think you have a great idea here, but the UX needs a lot of work, don't try to reinvent the wheel at the same time as designing a new car.

As an afterthought, could there be some way to log in with our Nostr account and upon completion of modules badges could be gifted to our npubs?


I have never been a fan of that guy. Though i can appreciate the technological acomplishments of his company, I do not agree with their motives or goals.
However, I've heard plenty of prominent Nostr figures talking about the future of Nostr potentially being in premium nodes, partly for the same reason to curb the bot problem... so really, what's the difference.


If someone can only tolerate those who agree with them, they aught to check how much of a tyrant they are... before the world does the checking for them, painfully.


Amen brother ✌🏼 keep up the good fight


What's the power consumption on use of this app? I feel like it could be quite a drain?


If you’ve ever been to the beach and looked out over the vastness of the ocean, or to a mountain range and gazed below at a grand valley vista, you’ve likely experienced the sensation of being “small” by comparison.

This very powerful and nearly universal human response (it crosses cultures, political ideologies, ages, races, etc) to the scale of the natural world tends to put a lot into perspective. It seems for many to cause empathy for one’s fellow man, who appear equally as small when viewed in such light.

This is why governments and many others who seek to control you don’t want you to go outside. They want you to live in cities, consume their propaganda, and produce yield for them. They want to destroy and limit the natural world because it brings out the best in us and tends to make us realize that we don’t need others telling us what to do (and watching us) all the time.

They want us to bring more and more people into the world to squeeze us into ever smaller spaces so that our perspectives become equally as narrow.

A narrow perspective lets “leaders”convince us that it is okay to hurt others who are more like us than we are like our leaders.

What a shame.

My shitposting is not yet profitable... clearly I need to up my game 😆


Yup, agreed. And considering the current state of economics... 😅

Though I think I can keep my zap pot filled by just helping out friends and getting them to zap me as recompense. Little things like helping with their car or repairing/refurbing their tech, then they can tip me on lightning i can pay it forward V4V. That's my zap model 😊


🤷🏻♂ Definitely not rich, 😅 looong way from that. Just trying to promote a new model of interaction. But I do think Only zaps is a bit too far, i'm more in the camp of more zaps.


Oh no, 😅 apologies if my words mislead. I'm not actually noderunning yet, but it was certainly higher on my to do list than the secured seedphrase! I'm planning to set up a node this month with some old hardware and depending on the success of that experement work towards migrating it into some newer, more long-life hardware, but i've been stupidly apathetic with the idea of securing my seedphrase 😅 so i'm going to flip the script on that one now and secure the seed phrase first. (I guess it's such a simple task my brain just focused on the more complex idea of node running 😅)


Tried to zap... couldn't zap 🤔


Yo damn, you're absolutely right and I've been prioritising the wrong thing! 😅 thank you sincerely for this reminder!


Or there's NIP05 wallet connect with other apps (such as Amethyst)


And a zap is only two 🤓


I am setting myself a new goal: rare reacts. Any time I want to tap for a react, I will instead either zap or leave a comment.

Maybe reacts have a purpose, but i'm going to try this way for a bit and see how it feels.

I'm so bad at social media I might not come on here for days at a time, but it's always a nice experience when I come back.
Before the NOSTR I had been absent from any social media for about five years...
Maybe I need to set myself a challenge or something to help personally #grownostr


Sometimes I fall into old Social Media habits of just reacting to notes. When I catch myself I slap myself and start zapping again 😅 habits take time to form and even longer to break.

What is Plebchain?

#Plebchain is a concept that emerged on the #Nostr platform, inspired by the idea of value for value. Basically, you follow someone and they follow you back. This creates a community of people who support each other regardless of social status or influence. It's a way of breaking the communication hierarchy of traditional social networks, where big influencers dictate trends.

For example, if you follow someone using the hashtag #plebchain, they will likely follow you back, creating a mutual exchange of followers and voice on the platform.

Furthermore, #plebchain is associated with Bitcoin and decentralization. Just as #Bitcoin is decentralized and community-based, #plebchain on Nostr also seeks to promote the idea of a decentralized and egalitarian community.

In short, #plebchain is about building a community where everyone has a voice and value, regardless of their position in society.

I just read every comment here and I really respect this healthy and open discussion between Christians of different denominations 🥲 it's so beautiful.

I was raised methodist and it was a very humble and sober experience. I'm grateful for the foundation it gave me and it has absolutely, positively shaped my faith, but I was always a bit jealous of the catholic rituals 🤣 I remember getting a giddy mystical feeling from all the incense, exotic language and illustrious-ness.

About 5 years ago I spent 3 months on board the ship Africa Mercy, an American christian charity which provide free surgeries and health care to African nations. The work the ship does is amazing but I found the American style of worship totally overwhelming with people speaking in tongues and hollering "HANDS IN THE AIR FOR JESUS!" and the like... It was a real culture shock! I have to admit it felt uncomfortable for me! 🤷🏻♂

A few years back I made friends with a guy right around the time he was converting to Orthodoxy. He's now the caretaker of the local orthodox church and he offered to give me a tour and explain a bit about the church. I got that same giddy feeling as when I was visiting Catholic Mass as a kid. All the gold, the incense, the iconography. It was a lot for the senses, due to my sober roots it's all still alot for me to take in 😆 I respect it though and I see the appeal. This "mystical" feeling is not unique to my Catholic and Orthodox experiences however. It is a feeling I often achieve through consistent prayer and meditation, and when stood atop a mountain, or under a clear vast starry night sky. It's a feeling I associate with deep awe of God.

I have become quite ascetic/mystic (in the traditional sense, not new age) in my practice because I have struggled to find a community I truely click with, too many zealots and too many hipocrites, not enough moderates aiming for the middle path. I recognise my own deep flaws in faith too... and that is an issue for others. I don't wish to create any image of myself on a high horse, repentance is a big part of my practice, I feel often that I am something of a heretic, but I am also OK with that because it's between me and God and many Saints and Prophet's were actually heretics in their own time. 😅

I have also developed a deep respect for the Sufi's of Islam, they carry a lot of beauty and wisdom and I have a connection with a sufi sheikh who has taught me so much 😊 this did so much to revivify my faith, bring inner peace and put my trust back in God.

Apologies if this is all an "over-share" but this fealt like a nice space to open my religious story and this is the short version... 🤣

I hope you find the spiritual community you are looking for! It's a great feeling when you do! 🤗

If maximum profit is the motive then you're absolutely correct and it's definitely something to think about long n hard.

It takes a certain amount of thick skin to be on a decentralized free-speech platform, especially for women and other marginalized communities.

Free speech says you can say whatever you feel. I fight for this right everyday...for everyone.

Those with high EQ know, most of the time, just because you can, doesn't mean you should.

You could spew sexist-racist-phobic bullshit, but all you're doing is hurting the growth of #Nostr.

Our community is strong. We can do something about it if we look out for each other. If you see BS, CALL IT OUT. Be an ally to friends and plebs. It won't stop the trolls, but it will let them know what they are up against. We love #Nostr and #Nostr takes care of its own.

Look, genetics are not responsible for culturally learned behaviour. If you don't even know this then I am not surprised you hold the views that you do... wealthy,  well raised and well educated black people don't have some inherent itch to be criminals. Poor,  underprivileged, undereducated white people are more likely to commit crimes than their more priveledged counterparts... you're looking at genes when you should be looking at social status, culture, education and inequality.

I won't be continuing this conversation as we're obviously not changing each others minds but I hope I might have at least given you something to think about.

I wish you both all the best and I hope you one day become friends with someone racially different to you who might help to change your mind ✌🏼 Peace and God bless.

You just showed a bunch of goons being goons on their own private property. I have witnessed goons from all walks of life being goons on their own private property and I withold the right to be a goon on my own private property, I have done way more stupid shit than this and I have an above average IQ.

TL;DR - I aim to judge individuals on a case by case bases. By their actions, their choices, their history and their future plans.


No, I don't believe that. I am aware of deeper differences, but I don't believe these differences (at least on the macro) have a bearing on the ability to positively contribute towards the progression of the human race. Are you aware that your genetics are different from whoever lives accross the road from you, even if they appear similar to you? Of course... at least I hope so, Humans have been migrating for all of history.

I believe in meritocracy and cooperation. IQ (Even IF the correlation WAS causation in this above infographic, which as I highlighted previously, I don't believe) is not the sole indicator of an individuals ability to positively contribute to humanity.

I could never render an entire group of people as useless due to genetic differences. Nature is not everything, we must also consider nurture and the balance of the two.

Intelligence in itself does not equate good. It was Satans pride in his superiority over man which caused him to fall from heaven, iwhether you're religious or not the wisdom holds true. What you do with intelligence (high or low) and how you benefit your fellow humans defines your moral standing.


Fair enough, I don't know too much about him tbh, only the viral clips 🤷🏻♂


Well if you want something clever you should call it Sha, because SHA256 is the Anchor which holds down the Bitcoin network.


If you were served food you didnt order, would you submissively eat it or complain and request the food you ordered?


Anchor McAnkh face


We hit the gringas vibe more 🤤


As far as I have experienced this has no bearing on an individuals ability to contribute well to society. I can sympathise with the idea that mass migration is not good for a country when it goes to the extremes, but that is mostly due to the clash of culture, not DNA. I grew up in a western mixed race environment and I saw no difference in the performance, potential or ability of any individual based on their "race". I did see a huge difference however coming from their "social status" and how much parents could afford extra tuition. Heck, the picture you posted even mentions in the small print that these results are largely attributed to malnutrition, poverty and lack of possible education. Not to mention that correlation doesn't equal causality.

I think you need to get out of your bubble and experience the real world bro ✌🏼

I pray God show's you the way.


Ok... interesting, how would you back up that idea?


It's simple... they're ngmi


Tell me... do you honestly believe that the colour of someone's skin makes a difference in their ability to contribute to society?


Hey #plebs, listen.

This isn't the first post I've seen goading suspicion. Bare in mind, TPTB never miss an opportunity to stir up paranoia, it puts us in the frame of mind where they need us, contantly wondering if the enemy is behind the corner.

I know the world is a scary place right now and there is definitely some real suspicious stuff going on around the globe but not everything is a conspiracy. Sometimes real big shit happens. Life can be chaotic.

As someone who works on ships and know's the industry very well, this event, despite being tragic, doesn't appear suspicious to me yet. Tragic and ultimately avoidable, yes, but not suspicious. If some evidence to the contrary surfaces I will be willing to change my mind but currently the most likely cause is improper fuel containing too high qauntity of biofuel additive causing the fuel injectors to froth up and choke the engines. This would explain the blackout in both main engine and auxiliary generators. As the industry is being forced to transition to "greener" fuels, issues like this are surfacing. The engines on these older ships generally weren't designed for these newer grades of fuel. This is just a running theory. The reality in these situations is that there is never one single cause but a chain of events that leads up to the failure.

There will be a very thorough investigation and we will know more when the report is released. If there is some conspiracy in all this it will be hard to hide it from the seafaring community, so I will reserve judgment until we know more. ✌🏼

Keep it real, remember occams razor and thanks for reading!

# "Free" is Slavery

Thae Young Ho is the highest ranking defector to ever have come out of North Korea. He was an ambassador to Sweden and then to England. At the Oslo Freedom Forum back in 2019, I got to talk to him for a few hours, and it's a conversation I'll never forget.

It's rare that we get such a high ranking official to come out of the country to tell us how they operate, but Mr. Thae is one of those people. He was able to enlighten many of us what North Korea's process for the currency revaluation was and why they backtracked. He also told us about how they had to execute someone so that the regime wouldn't get blamed. If you read any works of Rene Girard, that shouldn't surprise you, especially given that it's an atheist country.

## Kim's Rise to Power

But the story that struck me the most was about Kim Il Sung's rise to power. Mr. Thae explained that after being installed as the hand-picked leader of North Korea in 1945, he wasn't that popular. His Korean was marginal as he had grown up mostly in China. His education was a scant 8 years, all of it in Chinese and communist guerrilla tactics weren't exactly beloved by the people. Yet if we look at how he's looked at in North Korea today, he's essentially viewed as a divinity. Somehow, this poorly educated, barely comprehensible puppet of the Soviet Union became the god of North Korea.

So what happened? How did he gain all that power? What did he do to take control? You would think that given what we're generally told about communism that it would be based completely on fear and ruthlessness that consolidated his power. And certainly, there was plenty of that. But according to Mr. Thae, Kim Il Sung relied on something else: free stuff.

## The Cult of Free

Everyone loves free stuff. Think about how popular the free stuff section on your local craigslist is. I'll bet you anything it's the most visited and monitored part of the site and rarely will you find stuff that's that valuable that someone hasn't taken already. It's part of the human instinct to try to get something for nothing and Kim Il Sung exploited it.

As with most socialist/communist programs, the way he won over the North Korean people was with lots of entitlements. They got free health care, free food, free housing, a guaranteed job. They got everything they needed. And with Soviet subsidization, it worked great. People supported him and for a time, a lot of international observers thought that North Korea was doing better than the South.

But there's a darker side to "free stuff." What happens when they run out of a scarce resource? How do you determine who gets it? Say there's medicine that will help two different people, but there's only enough for one. Who gets it?

In a free market, prices help you decide that, and a high price spurs greater production of the scarce resource so that the prices come down. But if it's free, what do you do? When you have a central controller of everything, the answer is obvious. You reward those that are loyal and punish those that are not. Instead of money being your currency, it was loyalty to the regime that was your currency.

## Markets Build Community

Soon, the only people that really got the free stuff were near the top of the ideological hierarchy. Instead of prices determining what you got, it was your perceived compliance and loyalty to the regime that determined it.

In the absence of a market, compliance was what determined who got what. Mr. Thae's point of the story was that there's something sacred about market transactions. Market transactions cause both parties to have obligations to the other. There's a mutual desire to satisfy the other party and it binds us together in a community. That's precisely what they lacked in North Korea and why the regime was so powerful.

It's easy to listen to these stories and think of it as "out" there, that it's got nothing to do with us. But after listening to this story, I started thinking about what stuff I got for free from centralized entities. I get GMail for free. I get Facebook for free. I get YouTube for free. I realized that the cost of getting these things was indeed compliance. In these walled gardens, they can kick you out at any time and that is indeed what they do. The reason why these companies have so much power is because they give you this stuff in exchange for compliance. They give you this stuff to *enslave* you.

## Western Governments

Fact is, there's way more of the communist/socialist system of free embedded in our supposed democracies than we think. Remember during the pandemic how you had to get a vax to keep your job, visit your sick relatives or travel? There were people in the US suggesting that unvaxxed people should be denied health care services. Such tactics really only work when the service is "free." The central controller of the resource extracts its pound of flesh, just not in money. Many governments have gone down this route. We're much closer to communism in western societies than we'd like to believe.

Prices and paying for things are a good thing. They obligate both parties to the trade to satisfy the other. The instinct to get something for nothing is not one that builds civilization. The reason communism has led to tyranny every single time is because the central government ends up with all the resources and wields absolute power through "free" stuff.

Reject free. Pay for value.https://m.primal.net/HpeW.jpg

LFG! BULLISH ON NOSTR 👏🏻


Why nostr:
- You own your identity
- Your speech stands on its own
- You can run your own everything
- You own and control your social graph
- You are free to say and do anything, but you are not free from consequences (non-repudiation of cryptographic signatures)
- You can proof realness via proof-of-work, either directly or indirectly
- Proof-of-work is what allows you to successfully combat bots, spam, and trolls, as it brings real cost to destructive actions
- Ownership and realness allows you to build and curate webs of trust, which allows for canonicality without central authority


I live in Europe and I am angry about what's going on... at the same time I don't see how they can inforce it 🤷🏻♂ kinda sounds like hot air.
If there is something we can do about it though... I would be interested to hear.

Question for people involved in writing.

My wife wants to write a series of childrens books based on her fathers stories. Her father is a wonderful story teller and illustrator (he will illustrate the books) but not so good at writing, my wife is a very good writer.

If it comes to fruition, what would you consider a fair split on profits from this project? Obviously he is the creative source but my wife is the driving force and is doing all the grunt work. She seems to think she should get a very small % due to love for her father (kind of fair enough, very noble and ultimately her choice) but I think she deserves a fair share due to the fact this would never happen without her driving force, and there will be a lot of work involved on her part, it is afterall a collaboration. I think at least 25% for herself would be reasonable, but I know nothing about the publishing industry.

Curious to see if anyone here has an opinion or any experience. What do you think? Is 25% too much or too little? She will effectively be writer/manager/publicist her dad will be illustrator/creative director

People often have the misconception that the Free in FOSS is a reference to money, it's not. Anyone deeper in the FOSS ethos has heard the saying "free as in freedom". FOSS companies are absolutely within their right to charge for there services, the business model is simply different to proprietary models. It requires some creativity.

Such a great book*!!

I think that mindfully reflecting is more important, I also gave up on the journalling at some point but the lucid dreaming continued long after. Basically until I stopped trying due to worldy distractions. I am a very lazy writer, better to give 5-15 minutes of reflection time or meditation when you wake up.


I think the meditation, prayer and mindfulness really helped me through a heckin lot of stuff! 😅 I've been through two deep waves of spiritual practice in my adult life and I feel I need to be on the cusp of a third. In between the waves I always get way deep in the "mundane" world, dunja/samsara/material plane however you want to call it. That's where I am now. But I feel the potential energy of the pendulum getting ready to swing back into higher purpose. Fiat mine only sustains the body, the spirit needs different soil to bloom.

Sorry for the divergent over-share 😅 ...fuckin hippy 🤣


I did a couple years of practice on Lucid dreaming in my early twenties, got real good at it too. Did some journalling for that, but personally I think it was the meditation and mindfulness practice which helped the most. I never went back and read them but the act of journeling them solidified the memory better.


This is very bullshit


Big improvement! Must have put in some serious hours at the gym 💪🏼


For those that are new to Nostr, hello!

What’s cool about it is that Nostr it is an open source protocol. It is not a centralized company, but rather is a protocol that individuals and companies can build upon.

This means that you can use many different applications to access it, or even build your own. And it means that there is no central authority that can take down posts or delete accounts; there are different servers operated by different entities that are storing the data. And there is no central algorithm for determining what posts people see or don’t see.

You can hook up a bitcoin lightning wallet to send and receive tips (“zaps”) on posts. Nostr itself is not a blockchain or crypto and has no token, but the Bitcoin blockchain does complement it well via zaps.

Nostr is still relatively small, and a bit rough around the edges. But the community here is great, and familiarizing yourself with the technology and concept is useful in a world of centralized social media. It is a new method of decentralization that balances various trade-offs in a novel way, and the protocol can be used for a lot more than just social media.

Welcome!


Really... so be mindful of what you say and stay humble 😊🙏🏼


I finally got around to watching this one and it's so well made! So hopeful! I really look forward to more content from nostr:npub1h882a66p0zj5n69s2u8nfzev4f97lzfnlcej84z78p6uqxge5tpqlupz20 keep up the incredible work dude!

Perfect! #grownostr


It's worth looking around. Each specialises in something a bit different from what I understand. I haven't tried all yet either but I've dipped my toes into a few of them. Mostly I've used Iris, Primal and Amethyst


Correct, I already understand this about Bitcoin network. But now I see the difference of the relay... because NOSTR is not a block chain network, it's a different beast. I've been in Bitcoin a while so I understand that well... it's the NOSTR stuff I'm still learning. (Well... let's be honest, the BTC learning also never ends, the rabbit hole just gets deeper at every turn 😂)


We are all Satoshi except Craig Wright who's the only person in the planet proven not to be lmao https://image.nostr.build/45433e76ab02e64463c9f8926042afe7a1a2e42f5b2c9add3b68b57bccda171d.jpg


Well... it's a good point but i'm under the impression nostr notes only allow for "simple text" i'm clearly out of my depth here and need to RTFM 😂


LFG!!! 🚀🌚🍊


Seems to me that node/relay is somewhat arbitrary and they do the same thing, both can send/receive/verify data. BTC nodes also relay block chain data to other nodes right?


This is why I understand there is no media hosting on nostr, only links to externally hosted media, only the text is stored on the network relays because the text takes little space... but I clearly have a lot to learn before I fully understand how this all works 😂


This is too true 😂 I've met all these archetypes!


I've had this feeling also, I love reading but feel that I retain very little of the knowledge. I've heard active reading is more beneficial such as making notes and highlighting phrases as you read. But for me reading is as much about enjoyment as harvesting knowledge, and the active reading disturbs the flow and enjoyment 🤷🏻♂


Apologies for my interchanging use of relay/node 😅 maybe someone could clarify the difference for me? #asknostr


I would say that none of the clients are perfect yet, some are more polished than others and they all have differing bugs, #Amethyst is not the most polished, not free of bugs, but it is so far my favourite! 💜


I am quite new here also (only a few months in) but maybe I can try to answer some of your questions and if I'm wrong I hope someone more experienced can step in and correct me. #nostrnoob

You struggle to understand why someone would run their own relay but same time question where media and posts are hosted and what if the node/relay goes offline... well, that is the incentive for running your own node, piece of mind and personal security/stability in the network. One example for simplicity is to run an umbrel node, costs a few hundred dollars and comes with a Linux based operating system that allows you to install apps to run BTC node, LN node, NOSTR relay and personal cloud server (and more) all in one device, though I think an external NAS/drive system would be required to make the cloud server fully functional 🤔 you could also build your own device and install the OS.

As to monetisation, there are already premium nodes you can subscribe to, they tend to improve the speed of your feed when loading and perhaps some of them might provide some curation of content? Or creatives might hide some of their content behind a pay wall in this way (I think)

You could argue that the cost for using NOSTR in the long run is not so much in subscription fees (although as mentioned it is kind of possible with the premium nodes) but running your own relay is the cost of doing it "properly" (i'm not there yet, but I hope to be), or you can just trust that there will always be enthusiasts out there willing to pay for others to use the protocol I.e. #noderunners, just be sure to tip with a fat #zap if you ever come across a dev or node runner, they do us all a great service out of pocket!

I hope I can be corrected on any inaccuracies here... #asknostr


On #Amethyst I see the comment with the notification, but I don't think it is possible for me to add a comment to a zap I make... am I wrong? #asknostr


I think Nostr is a place for grown ups... and grown ups need to pull their socks up and understand the world and the people in it, trying to come to terms with those different people.

That being said... blocking specific posters is also an option. 🤷🏻♂


Well, supposedly the Finnish government solved homelessness so maybe we should give them all our money to save the environment? 😂

Hot take, but unfortunately true for now... WoS and Alby have never failed me. But I only keep a tiny amount on them which I would survive getting rugged. I basically use them like my pocket, assuming money could fall out of my pocket.

Which client are you using?


True 😊 and there's no harm in a bit more security for the network. The more, the merrier. 😊


That's a very noble goal and I am fully on board for it, but how many Bitaxes would be required to compete with a mega mining farms if they're captured? Hundreds of thousands likely, (I understand bitaxe isn't the only option out there of course)

I 100% back the concept of decentralised mining for at least your above mentioned reason, i'm just sceptical enough people are taking it that seriously to make a meaningful difference yet... what are your thoughts on that?
I think we have a long way to go


Yo, now it worked, i zapped you successfully 👌🏼 yeah so there's something else going on though because other people i tried zapping weren't on minibits

*just keep note this is a highly compressed version, unfortunately there is no native video hosting on NOSTR in a decentralized way, so it is better for me to just self-host through a paid service like nostr.build

**this also means I get no ad Rev or impressions on my YouTube which is what allows my videos to reach a wider audience, so zaps are appreciated if you enjoyed the film!

Is anyone else having #zaps fail regularly?
The message reads that LN invoice cant be generated or something to that effect, seems to be a wallet agnostic issue, so I was wondering if it's an #amethyst bug? nostr:npub1gcxzte5zlkncx26j68ez60fzkvtkm9e0vrwdcvsjakxf9mu9qewqlfnj5z

Good luck, I've been thinking of getting into micro greens. I've been sprouting for quite a while to add to meals and salads, micro greens seems like the logical next step. Involves a bit more equipment though...


LFG 👌🏼


I love this website! Haven't used it in years but I love the interface! Such a fun idea!


Where could I watch uncompressed version? Do you have it on YouTube, Odysee or other?


I've been thinking about getting one of these. Main reason being that it's cool af and a little bit of the network's security in my home, but i'm curious... has anyone ever won a block with one of these? And if so how many?


These were my exact thoughts on seeing this post from Relai... 🤣

I mean to be fair, as far as i'm aware. Eurozone regulations make it almost impossible to have a truely KYC free exchange (P2P excluded of course) so at least Relai's "KYC light" model isn't full doxx out the gate.

But I did lose respect for Relai when one of my good friends got his account locked with a Full KYC request even though he had not surpassed the trade limits and Relai would not give him a good reason for the block and request... 🤔


Well done for keeping sober 👌🏼 more power to you! 💪🏼


Have you tried the sea worms? 🤣 I don't know what they're actually called but they're long, thin, battered and taste like squid, very salty and great with beer most bars seemed to serve them. The local honey rum is also fantastic.


I've been there when I spent some time in the Las Palmas shipyard. There are some beautiful spots, one bar near that square makes a really good Black Paella (the local way) and serves a great selection of beers. There is also one street in the city (Taxi drive away) where on Thursday evenings all the bars in the street give away free snacks and sell really cheap mojitos and sangria. Start at one end of the street and you'll be equally stuffed and wasted by the time you get to the other end. Highly recommend.

Unfortunately I don't remember any names 😂 but if you ask around people will probably tell you the places 👍🏻

I personally recommend stock Fedora for beginners. That being said Ubuntu or Linux Mint are also good places to start. My best recommendation is to just do your own research because that will be a big part of your Linux journey. No one can tell you what is right for you so your just going to have  to "fuck around and find out" and considering it's a macbook that you're not currently using you don't have anything to lose. Just go for it.


Have you installed linux on anything before?

What year/model is it?


Have you tried OsmAnd ?


Where there is will there is a way. From what I understand some macbooks are easier than others but you can find tutorials on YouTube.


Legit 💯

I don't personally collect any more, but my kid had a phase a while back and we're still playing from time to time, it was nostalgic and good fun, though there were so many new pokemon I have never heard of 😂

I used to collect when I was a kid, I had quite a stacked collection, well preserved in a binder with protective sleaves. I had plans to hold onto them a long time as I already then recognised the collectable value of them, some cards being very early editions and rare iterations. In my late teans I moved away from home and left a bunch of stuff as storage in my parents attic. Some time later I went looking for the cards, they were gone... my parents had sold them on ebay for like 50 bucks when they cleared out a bunch of our old kids stuff 😭 I was so mad as I knew the value was at least 4 times that at the time and today probably way way more but of course I learned a valuable lesson in humility and communication that day 😆


Personally, I like privacy respecting services which you can use without having to log in or connect... as mempool.space is presented. I don't think everything needs to be nostr-fied.
If you find some reason that nostr creates a value add to your service then I guess there is good reason but otherwise no need to add just for the sake of it (may be an unpopular opinion).


I am one who wishes to maintain a degree of anonimity and privacy, yet simultaneously has regular urges to over share and unintentionally doxx myself.

Ok that's interesting. I suppose the process makes it clearer as to what's happening? And perhaps becomes more intuitive that way?

There's no "secrets" regarding the process.


There's an open source program called FunkWhale, I haven't tried it personally but it looks interesting. Also non Open source Noom is worth a look, it specialises in high res music, it's a bit on the expensive side though.

Yeah I get that, I think the brain wallet concept is very cool, but I've heard the argument that brain wallets are only really a good idea if you're fleeing a country and no one knows that you know the keys. Otherwise geographically dispersed multi-sig is the gold standard for security of your main HODL. There's no easy way for you to surrender your coins that way.

If you know your 12 words, and an attacker knows that you know them, a gun or knife could coerce you to surrender the 12 words.


But your biggest mistake was letting the world know that you know those twelve words... now you are potential prey for the wrench attack 😬

Not likely to greenlight. There is a reason why seaplanes and "wing in ground effect" vehicles dissappeared from the seas. I'll be very surprised if this continues to receive funding.


Everyone needs to see this! This is so well produced! They guy who made this needs a medal!

I considered having two channels, one fully doxxed and open and the second one as Suedonymous. But I am mega lazy when it comes to socials management... 😂 i don't think i have the attention to switch between two channels... maybe one day if i think it's really worth it.


I'm glad i'm not alone in navigating this fine line 😅


GM GD GA GN fellow plebians,

Does anyone else here struggle with the balance between maintaining nostr anonimity and yet wanting to be your true self and discuss topics that could eventually end up doxxing you? 😅

I guess it's not a trade, but it's certainly one of the most essential and forgotten about blue collar jobs out there: Seafarer


Only way that i know how to do it is by having the gif saved on my device and then uploading it as an image. If someone knows a better way. I would love to hear it


That's a solid purchase right there! I've been doing the same thing with music, In my twenties I had hundreds of CD's but sold them all in bulk for like a dollar each when I moved out of the country. Now i'm regularly going to my local flee market and restocking on all my favourites. Physical media is true ownership. I still stream music for convenience, but there's a peace of mind that comes in owning your favourites and the sound quality is much better.


😅 It's an interesting thought huh? I wouldn't mind moving to Lat-Am, there's some really beautiful places down there.


I would recommend getting a refurbished Lenovo thinkpad, Dell Latitude or HP Elite book. These "professional grade" laptops are usually the easiest when it comes to compatability with Linux and they're cheap compared to new laptops and easy to repair yourself. Perfectly capable of doing most work based tasks.

However if you're doing anything graphics intensive for your work you'll need something newer and more powerful.


Depends largely on your use case and where in the world you are. What will you be using it for?

Perhaps you shouldn't think so lowly of those capable of contemplating mysteries. Yes, prepackaged religions are often farcicle and used as a means of control and placation. But they hint at a core perrenial truth and the true spiritual practices do not teach copium but immersion by fire, "drowning in the seas of the unknown" essentially true spiritual practice teaches full awareness of all good and all bad "yin and the yang". No ignorance should be allowed. Granted you likely wont find this by going to your local house of worship, but there are those who have existed through time who have explored these concepts to great detail. I recommend starting with the works of Carl Jung and Aldous Huxley if you want the acedemic view. Alan watts is good for a bit more of an entertaining delivery.

You are pulling the right strings. Godspeed on your journey of life.


If you like Garuda, have you considered Nobara?


If you want to learn Arch, check out a distro called Arcos. It's very interesting to play around and learn.

If you want something that just works I recommend Fedora or a spin known as Nobara which is geared towards gaming and content creation.

All can easily be run with KDE 👍🏻


I hear you. It's easy to fall into this way of thinking when looking out at the world. Inevitably the majority of people will be "mid" people and if you have niche interests it is going to feel a bit lonely at times. But from my experience most people are good people with good intentions, it's just the "bad ones" are often the noisiest.

I recommend looking for social clubs or IRL meetups for the things that interest you. Once you have a good community of people with shared interests the world doesnt seem so dark.

Also, consider developing some form of spiritual practice, for example starting with meditation. Read spiritual/religious/philosophical books and develop a curiosity for the mysteries of life 😊 this is my strongest recommendation


I've stayed away from Ubuntu on desktop for many years. About five years ago it seemed really buggy and kept breaking on me, it could've also been my own failings at that time, but i've heard Ubuntu has got a lot better in the past year or two 👌🏼 but along with Debian, they're of course solid server setups


It's amazing what a bit of linux bootstrapping can do to old hardware 😎 i think that if more people realised this, and how user friendly Linux actually is these days, we would be able to massively reduce e-waste


No, I think there is a culling season on the rise.


Well well, anon thinks quite highly of themselves... I suppose you have it all figured out. Good luck to you, I hope you find the light 😅


I've heard about whonix but never actually tried it. I'll have to look deeper, thanks.


If you wanted something lighter than Mint you could also try Lubuntu or Linux Lite, all three are good options for older hardware though 👍🏻 in my experience something usually breaks with Manjaro after a while... might just be me though 😂 your personal set-up sounds solid and practical 👌🏼


Yeah, I never got the hype around MX Linux 🤔  but I guess it works for many, so more power to them 😊


Mint is a solid choice for a "just works"/"beginner" distro 👌🏼 have you considered trying other distros or are you content with Mint?


As a privacy forward individual, which gnu/linux distribution do you prefer to use and why?

Nothing says "Broken Money" quite like a central bank that is operating at structural losses now and has negative capital.

For the first time in modern history, the central bank of the world reserve currency is just structurally unprofitable.

GM gentle plebs and people of Nostr.

I'm always trying to decondition my imbedded fiat mindset and i've made much progress but there is much work still to do.

The newest challenge is making the switch to P2P KYC-FREE HODL'ing.

I know it's the way that Satoshi intended it. But ~10% mark up is a big difference from the current KYC-light 1% fee i'm currently getting with Relai... that's a tough pill to swallow but I guess it's the price of security and pseudonimity? And I guess the market is deciding that is what it's worth if people are paying that premium...?

What's your opinion?

On a side note... is KYC-light even a thing or is it just regulatory capture waiting to happen.

Isn't the solution usually a head shot? I think you have to destroy the brains...

Yes, more or less... let's see how the next few month go 😊💜


Nah man it's all cool. I just get a bit sassy from time to time and forget that text based communication doesnt convey the humour in my words.

Keep up the good fight and I hope you get through to someone who needs to hear it! 💪🏼


Inflated cost of living, stagnated wages. A family to support from a single income... I'll be ok though, I have hope in the future... just going through a really rough patch. On top of everything the car died today... 🤦🏻♂ day before christmas... impeccable timing.

Feels wierd to vent this here but I guess the anonymity aspect takes the shame away (until i manage to doxx myself) 😆


Thank you for being so receptive!

If you are interested in more, this guy has a good youtube channel and does quite a good job of describing various faiths. Here is his take on Ibn Arabi's philosophies. It's long, over an hour, but worth a watch if you are interested. 🙏🏼

You're very welcome,

I would say all three of those are solid choices. In my opinion the seed signer ismarginally superior because you can totally DIY build, order components independently for minimal traceability and market censorship.


Correct, don't they ship to states though? I guess it's an added complication either way.


This man is asking the questions we were too afraid to ask! 😆👌🏼


LFG!
FOSS OR GTFO!

Hey Nostrs. Can you help? I'm an Instagram boating education content creator, and I'd love to bring my content to Nostr, I know its still a small niche audience but I thought I'd test it out to see if there's potential for influencers on this platform.

I'm having difficulty though, I don't understand the relays and if incorrect selection of relays reduces reach. I also don't know how to get my content to be pushed out to people, so can I ask a big favour of the Nostr community please?

Can you help me reach anyone interested in boating and a bit of humour to repost, the crap out of this note? I wanna see if I can grow through reshares, as its not working as it does in insta. (I even have non boaters enjoy my content on insta, so don't let that be a hurdle😉)

I'm giving away my boating IP for free here on Nostr, and I'm old enough to have acquired quite a bit, so I'd really appreciate your support to see if we can get traction for influencers (the good kind😆) on this platform.

Thank You


I've noticed that Nostr is more about quality over quantity. You wont find the same level of clout as on other social media. But the interactions you get will hopefully be more meaningful and with a few zaps, more lucrative. Consider the "1000 good fans" concept and it can really work on this V4V model, it would never work on the others.

As paradigms shift so too should our approach and expectations.

Keep up the great work, I am a seafarer and very grateful for your content on here!


Solid choice 👌🏼 did you considered framework? Or tuxedo computers?


So damn cool! I am very bullshit on V4V music model. It just needs a Ton of development. I hope some strong investments come into the space to push it forward!


Despite my view that their is no "one true religion" i do believe that for personal development it is wise to choose a path, choose the religion that strikes a chord with you personally, then start exploring the mystical/esoteric aspects of that religion once you are comfortable with the exoteric. Think of the exoteric as the religion and the esoteric as the related spirituality. This doesnt mean you shouldn't read or be interested about other paths, seek knowledge. But the tree with shallow roots is easily blown by the wind, like this... development is stunted.
An holistic and dedicated approach on a path is necessary for spiritual development. Preferably with a trustworthy teacher. But be very careful of false prophet's and scam artists. Maulana Jallaladin Rumi lays out good rules for a sincere spiritual guide. But to your actual question:

God is the absolute perfect emanator of everything, in everything but not of anything and essentially unattainable, beyond space, time, and concepts of good and evil. We can only grasp and glimpse beyond the veil and words will always fall short of a complete explanation. I really like the works of the sufi masters and especially ibn al-Arabi's take on God.

Personally I resonate towards the Abrahamic faiths and the path I choose is Islam focused on Sufism. But as Muhammad (pbuh) instructed i also take lessons from the "peoples of the book" i.e. all those which align with an Abrahamic concept of god: jews, christians etc.

I also read a lot about all the religions of the world as wisdom can be found in many places. But if I have contradicting ideas then i root myself in Abrahamic ideology.

Apologies for the info dump 😅✌🏼💜🕯


Ooooooh! 🤣 thanks! I cant keep up with all the acronyms sometimes... 🧓🏼


Don't get me wrong... I absolutely agree with what you're saying. I was being cheeky and flippant 😅 I kind of assume everyone here by now should know these things already but I guess there are still those who don't... you're allowed to voice you're frustrations ✌🏼 ignore my sass if you prefer 😄


Please enlighten a fellow pleb... what is the meaning of HFSP?


Nailed it


Amen! I am taking zero chances!


So sick 😎


Only option. After a life of searching and denying... I accepted the rationality of God's existence.
I don't have enough faith to be an athiest. However I do not believe in "one true religion" i believe that all religions are humanities attempts to grasp at the truth which is always beyond the veil.


Absolute diamond hands... what a chad 😎


But the real question is... who are you talking to over here?
Where i'm from we call this preaching to the choir 😅
