nah, but i think i should seriously consider finding a VoIP service that gives me a portuguese number and sms

meh, probably better for now just the no-internet 2g voice only, internet over ethernet so it can do the banking crap

i almost never use the phone... only ever used phones a lot in my life to talk to girls anyhow 

 i love reading your homestead journal, so can't wait until i can do my own thing 

 yeah, that's how small the elites want our sovereignty to be, and even there they are rugging everyone 

 it probably is an electrolyte imbalance... i get these nasty cramps and finally figured out with all the kidney stuff i got going on it is potassium deficiency... they also make it so i get a lot of soreness after hard exercise, if i can even do it at all

got potassium chloride salt, and i'm back on the potatoes and now also with bananas, probably other things i can add that have a lot of potassium

it could be also calcium, magnesium or sodium deficiency... unrefined grey sea salt is thte best for sodium (also with bonus traces) and magnesium and calcium are a bit harder... dolomite lime is good, as is spinach and milk/cheese/yogurt

i am fairly sure i have low levels of everything, i also have slow healing on tendon injuries, which makes cycling a lot less fun than it could be

and of course to not forget, also dehydration can cause these imbalances alone, or exacerbate them... first line of treatment for my cramp/muscle problems is drinking more water, and less coffee 

 haha at the wine cooler panniers 

 readme now updated with clear detailed instructions on how to use this tool, it's turning into quite the swiss army knife for nostr/bitcoin/dev selfhosting reverse proxy, domains and TLS 

 client devs need to pull their focus back to what they got rather than what they are gonna get

it's a very common behaviour with young developers, or early in the career to be all about features, and not enough focus on polish 

 even a prepaid model would be better than a subscription, so your credit persists if you don't use it 

 what was the cause?

i also have started turning my situation around, realising that i have severe potassium deficiency... now eating banana and taters and i've got potassium chloride salt coming in the post 

 i knew it would be bad but not shitcoining bad 

 between the amethyst and coracle devs, relating to reporting protocols... amethyst tags the reported posts with a reaction, which makes counting reactions a bit ugly if for example the post contained a link to kiddie porn 

 yeah... vitor is not taking it well 

 yeah, he's not considering his market at all IMO, just like you, gonna make people just that bit more skeptical towards the app 

 https://github.com/mleku/nodl/tree/master/cmd/vainstr

this is the fastest vanity miner but you have to build and install the bitcoin secp256k1 library to get that benefit (and go)

it lets you search for prefixes, suffixes and anywhere in the key string

it can mine a 5 character suffix key in about 10 minutes on a 12 core Ryzen 5

i'd build a binary if someone would pay me to *wink* 

 haha... it took me about 1 week in total work to make that thing, putting the secp256k1 library in it was complicated 

 that would be because a crafty, bitchy little cunt is behind them, like all AIs 

 all linuxes are prejudiced against X and Radeon, fuck them all

pop is one of the better ubuntu derivatives for GPU support

i want to use BSD

if BSD had a good AMD driver i'd not be using windows right now

so frickin annoying

gnome 4 was the worst version of a major linux DE ever, i hate it so much, it's like it's trying to be Cocoa but it's fuckin bullshit that breaks every linux GTK-3 app ever 

 it's really messed up innit

whatthefuck.gif

i'm running windows actually, because of how braindamaged linux has got... and my video card is a new one, just released late last year 

 this is why i have built a relay data store that deletes stuff with the longest time ago being asked for

i don't have no grant so i can't finish that code and make it work except in my free time when i don't get paid

also, i think overall that paywalling is more powerful than WoT, WoT filtering is just like leverage on top of the protection provided by charging for publishing 

 seems kinda ironic in some way tho

i seen this new thing called VanillaOS, it's basically like turning your whole system into a stack of docker images, cool, but doesn't play nice with my AMD video

are y'all really running shitty intel and nvidia on linux these days? or is the linux project literally being prejudiced against AMD or what? cos since version 6 kernel it has looked a lot like you only have hardware problems if you use a

OPEN FUCKING SOURCE

AMD driver

i mean black screans, flickering, crashes... it's fucking pathetic 

 stop following her

it's not that i don't like her but  the noise ratio is high 

 yeah, it's a thing 

 nip81 is also not visible or easily found on the nips repo tho, wen merge? 

 the same as every other release 

 the general observation of internet social networks is 10% produce content and the other 90% some of them occasionally reply "agreed" and that's that

so whatever figures we have about active, reasonably human-looking npub post records, then we can 10x to estimate how many people are watching this shitshow 

 i remember some figure around 30k a few months ago, seemed reasonable, which means there's probably another 270k lurkers at least 

 "tit" is a british expression meaning an idiot 

 nah, i meant the spambot, it was replyguy for the last few days, it looks like they are switching it up to amuse themselves more 

 especially not with their indigestible vegan protein 

 also, honestly, after some decade of even just in-ear earphones, i don't want them anymore, for the last 4 years i have cheap dual driver studio monitors and a condenser on my desk

and yeah, the same for laptops, those are going to go back to being niche in the near future

ain't nobody got time for that shit... computer should stay where it has been installed goddammit 

 did you see what that text actually encodes? interesting lol

 hodlbod is right in this case

these other clowns don't even think about liability, or have common decency, it seems to me, and this reflects in their actions

15 “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. 16 You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles? 17 Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. 19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 Therefore by their fruits you will know them." -- Matthew 7: 15-20 

 oh wow i didn't know Jim Henson made a ... the original ... version

The Dark Crystal was one of the most important movies in my childhood, next to Labyrinth, which was produced by mister star wars.

there was some really nice movies made around the time i was born... soylent green, thx1138, stalker, solaris, the andromeda strain, and now this, the original Cube escape movie, oh and not to forget Network! between 1972 and 1986 was a golden age of cinema, there's so many more in there too, Terminator, Nightmare on Elms Street, The Fly, They Live, The Lost Boys

hollywood produces nothing of substance anymore 

 yeah, i never heard of it, and Jim Henson is a master of narrative and myth 

 yeah, that thing about likes is a problem

the solution would be a negative/positive tag added to kind 7s i think?

no point in bothering with changing what is passed i think, but perhaps to give some clear guidance for client devs... having a negative/positive sense to reactions makes a lot of sense

but also, at the same time, i think amethyst should consider at least asking first time about this and letting teh user disable this part of the report, or just expose the whole thing in the modal

btw, composing this post, coracle froze up on me, and i had to dig around in the console to root out the actual text and remove the automatically added html tags inside it

it was because for whatever reason, alby signer had locked my key and refused to sign it 

 yeah, i think the thing about putting a weight on the reaction would mean that if the reaction has no weight assigned you don't count it, that's the point

i mean, you can't expect everyone else to search for 1984s as well for every single event you fetch???

as always, the most conservative response is usually the best... this is why many of these younger devs especially these javascript ninjas with their woke programming are so irritating, they are so prone to overreacting schemes of logic 

 well, ok, i think that works

same for labels i guess

it's just more features... gotta be systematic about adding them, or they turn your code into spaghetti 

 yeah, that's the point... it should have a polarity extra to the decoration... but then we run into issues with clients picking their own mappings... and client complications and user cognitive burden...

probably the most practical way is [+][-] and each, if enabled, pops up an emoji board, and adds a sign indicator tag 

 hah, yeah, that's my point, it's rate limited, and if i want to spawn infinity subdomains, i answer to nobody else if i own a wildcard certificate outright, rather than a freebie from some NGO

the prices are extortion but obviously low enough that i can justify it for a domain i plan on continuing to use well beyond then, and for which i require to be able to make infinity subdomains

i suppose if there was an actually decentralised name resolution protocol it would cost something, and spammy registrations would probably be part of that cost, in mitigation, so it's probably not that far from what it really is worth

i has it now so i can uses it 

 but you are supposed to sacrifice virgins up there, with a nasty sharp piece of flint, and display their gutropes to the sun who will bless your crops in the coming year 

 ah, there is customs around this climb

the pyramid mountain in Serbia is a bit like that, someone even built a little chapel at the top, i forget what the motivation was, but i'm pretty sure that people believed even back then that it was clearly a pyramid and the reason was to sanctify the sin of the place

the town nearby has signs and advertising relating to UFO sightings and there is at least one hotel, the one i stayed at, anyway, that is right nearby, only an hour's round trip from that hotel to the peak

the weather at the top of the mountain is also very interesting, i think, and indicative of something - when i climbed it, at the bottom it was clear and sunny, and there was no clouds over the mountain, but by the 45 minutes or so that passed while ascending, a dense cloudmass formed around the peak and at the very top everything was shrouded in mist, it was very cool

now that i know that cloud formation requires electrons (to negatively charge dust) i'm of the opinion that the pyramid still concentrates some kind of electromagnetic energy

i was told by several people that the mountain is famous for its crazy sudden weather changes and frequent heavy cloud cover right at the top 

 yeah, it is quite extraordinary... my experience of rtanj was probably relatively common, and it's simple enough to envisage that the sharp flat slopes cause wind currents that concentrate wet air above them but the actual condensation shows there is something deeper going on

rtanj was way too steep to ride a bicycle up... i mean, yeah, you could, it was mostly an open pathway but none of it paved, all gravel and dirt, but going directly up? no way, way too steep, was close to 40 degrees, you'd even struggle to get a 4wd or motocross bike to go up it without following a shallow approach 

 the pyramids are the red flag

bosnia has them too, and they are also found in other places, and i don't mean only the ones that are obvious man made edifices but the ones that have decayed so much they look like natural mountains, kinda... there is ones in china too, and i believe in several places in africa, west asia, and north america

it's because the people who were behind the pyramids are also behind the power structure of our society

they were mostly dispersed about 6000 years ago but in that time they gradually built up empires again and enslaved people and made memes and have been slowly working towards knitting together a single global government

the fact that the USD$1 note has this pyramid on it is also red flag

the fun part is, though, that these people don't have the knowledge of how to use this pyramid technology, even with their monopoly on information, it's not in the vatican library, it's nowhere

that is probably intentional by another group who knew of these people

the evidence of these dynasties of crime families all across the world is unquestionable, as is the fact that something isolated them from each other a long time ago, there is at least two of them as a major grouping, some refer to them as the East and West factions, and they have some kind of a plan that they are executing, and it's my opinion that the designer of the plan is none other than the diablo himself

and the reason why they are getting more and more frantic and heavy handed is because in the next 50 years, the same kind of massive global catastrophe that dispersed them in the times of Babel and the Flood are going to happen again, and they don't even have their stupid pyramids anymore

idk how to say it any better... the bad guys are being pushed into a corner by isolation and deliberate destruction of their knowledge, it won't be long, we will probably both live to see it play out 

 yeah, this puzzle has been on my horizon for a while but then i read The Apocalypse of Yajnavalkya and everything came together in a big way

i don't think that book has completely got it right, but it's very very close to right

i have the idea in my head if i get the free time and i'm able to manage that time i will do a heap of research, collect quotations and write a whole book on it myself

there's more to this story, and i think that the whole thing is all of the old prophecies literally say that when the time is close, everything will become visible to whoever cares to look

also, yeah, my connection to serbia was mainly through a guy who was at one time a bit of a techno DJ in Novi Sad of some notoriety and of course he had connections to those people as well, and he was absolutely obsessed with this stuff, i mean, he showed me so many things that left so many questions in my mind i was ready to learn more

ah yeah, https://parallelcoin.info is what i know of as his most notable bit of work as a web developer, it's a hilarious and witty little web page and animation

he caused me so much consternation with his stupidity but his fascination with these apocryphal subjects left a big mark on me, and it was thanks to him i got enough experience to call myself a competent Go programmer... and he was a total golang maxi, he would rant for hours on end about how Go was the best haha 

 yeah, i'm sure i'm gonna go visit more of them

that reminds me, there is one in Australia too, up around Rockhampton i think 

yeah, here it is:

https://www.ancientpages.com/2020/02/13/mysterious-gympie-pyramid-evidence-of-an-ancient-lost-civilization-in-australia/

i remember driving past it, i didn't climb it

i'm of the opinion that there definitely is some structures that due to the climate of the region got weathered to hell and are deeply collapsed to the point where you'd have to burrow through the entire structure to find parts that are still remnant

it's hot up there in north queensland, i can't imagine that a giant pile of bricks stacked in a pyramid made out of synthetic stone would not look like a mountain after 8000+ years 

 yeah, i think it could be verified too, if they let you tunnel into it

if the stone is not fused together in chunks bigger than about the size of an egyptian pyramid chunk, or signs of having fragments of that size or greater, then obviously it's a big fucking pile of rocks, ie, a building! 

 well, some people mix tobacco with weed... personally i prefer to smoke out of a little pipe, and preferably pale green stinky skunk grown in the tropics

anyhow, these are questions that most likely won't get answered any time soon, it's just my position that hiding their existence is a conspiracy itself

the nature of diamagnetic and paramagnetic materials in such large masses along particular lines across the earth's surface and their relationship to altering and channeling magnetic fields and via them, radiation and possibly also capturing some kind of energy, is without question in my mind

there is more and more evidence about the nature of magnetic fields and electricity and their role in the things that go on in our atmosphere  piling up these days that suggests that an enormous amount of energy is constantly being dumped on us by the sun constantly and this is more energy than we could ever use, and evidenced by the fact that a lightning strike occurs more than once a second on this planet somewhere... that energy comes from the sun, more directly than just heat causing stuff to get warm, this makes all kinds of other things especially including cloud formation and auroras, and why we get lightning at all, and especially, volcanic lightning, which travels the opposite direction, suggesting there is a massive amount of electric potential energy within the liquid rock underneath us

it seems extremely plausible to me that large masses of paramagnetic and electrolytic materials as what pyramids are made from, could lead to a means to access some kind of electromagnetic energy that is used to power devices or enable technologies that we don't know about yet... but there is so many hints towards it, i mean i'm sure you know of the obvious UFO related imagery and aliens of egyptian hieroglyphics or the australian aboriginals paintings of the white wandjina or the depictions of all kinds of other things that suggest that there has been high technology societies long ago whose traces are mostly now gone, either by weather or by the periodic catastrophe that makes such things as this definite flood track pattern on the north african desert:

anyhow, i just don't know enough yet to be 100% about it all but i'm confident enough to say that there are more pyramids than mainstream archaeology acknowedges... like the ones on the Canary Islands, and other places... it's all very suspicious to me 

 this whole nannying bullshit is a plague of this current era, since the 00s... everywhere it goes it turns the world into shit 

 yeah that's why so many people like the AI, it's a way to dodge responsibility

pathetic 

 that's more accurate 

 also, it's because those AIs are fed with bullshit that they make bullshit

GIGO

as old as computers themselves

garbage in, garbage out

or as Jesus said "By their fruits ye shall know them" 

 and now also i know that it's mainly caused by celiac... i can't believe i have suffered from this rash for ~25 years without figuring out it was a symptom of celiac

the weird thing is i don't always get it

and i ate bread a lot in my time in prison and instead of a rash i got severe allergic asthma, so bad i couldn't sleep... caffeine reduced it and ventolin reduced it and this obscure antihistamine chlorpyramine reduced it... i struggled for like 5 years with using ventolin on it, because the ventolin stops working in the long term after about 2 weeks, it actually releives it for a few hours and then it's back even worse

and all this trouble with electrolytes

just eating bananas and potato chips is making that mostly go away, but in a weird way, but i feel a lot better, brain working better

anyway, live and learn... in some ways the long time suffering makes the time of liberation from it sweeter, not gonna say i love suffering or evil or anything but yeah 

 being able to cheaply do a useless thing does not make it any less useless

and it's not that cheap, the power for each of those roasts would have been enough to reheat your dinner, when you amortize the whole cost

bill gates is a pedophile megalomaniac mass  murdering eugenicist monopoly trust bandit psychopath

i am not usually in support of adhominem but the dude has done nothing good in his life, at all, at all, he's a liar, a pederast, a womanizer, a liar, and did i mention a mass murderer? the record of the vaccine projects he has been involved in and teh number of sterile and dead people that came out of it would make hitler blush 

 and what i hate the most about AI is it's mostly fed on marketing copy, which is the worst, most deceptive, lying ass bullshit text ever produced in human history, with the exception of maybe shit like the Satanic Bible or Dianetics 

 well, clients can filter feeds, and should... but often they are laxidaisical about it and most of them load the garbage and then check if it's on the mute list, instead of checking whether to load it

and very often they have revealers for content that is blocked, even though, you know, you don't want to see it

and they often don't even consistently check, even if they put hiders over posts in the post view, in the reactions, whether the user has muted it

the mute filtering is happening way too late in the process

in fact, the relay should be doing it for you, if it gets a set of results, it should load your mute list and remove the events that are by users you mute or contain tags you mute

there's a toxic culture of "you should be thick skinned" that has developed out of the Reddit social network site, they really don't take this idea that people own their own screens and if you want to be in the community you have to take it on the chin from the fucking scumbag trolls

like, what the fuck

i don't want to block everyone from seeing asshat, i only don't want to see asshat, and maybe i want to make it known i don't like asshat

so you have the facebook model of hide everything even if just your friends hide it

and the reddit model of "toughen up kiddo" and being "free speech" oriented, most nostr clients follow the reddit model, as do the relays

anyhow, that's my 21 sats on the subject

i have a feeling there is a schism building in the nostr dev community over this, by the way that two prominent devs are having a fight about it this last couple of days relating to protocols for offensive content, i stand with those who want to give users choice

and i also want to admonish everyone to consider that problems can be easier solved closer to their origin 

 yeah, it's because the devs are mostly being paid by opensats or jack or primal, inc

just gonna put it out there but #coracle  is the most user-respecting and one of the most, if not the most advanced clients

i occasionally also use #nostrudel  as my backup

the devs of both are solid dudes, who have both won my respect over the last 8 months i've been here 

 that was how i understood it, abortion predated the pill, and it was promoted by Planned Parenthood and Margaret Sanger and all the rest, eugenicists, so they also specifically targeted poor and african women 

 yeah, it was a very short-sighted design decision, hopefully this nip-81 moves along and we have them all in neat, parameterized replaceable CRDT form 

 yeah, i'm really hostile to nutscrape, i mean mozilla foundation, i almost hate them more than microsoft
