About key management, I like the idea of using a trusted domain (like github, or your own site, etc) to provide the link to the npub used.
This allows the user to let their ID in a centralized service to mitigate the risk of losing his private keys.
It would be nice if nostr clients had an option to give a big red alert if the "trusted domain" keys stopped matching the npub.
It could be a big alert, or per default just switch to what the trusted domain is saying.
For what i know shia is people who think the sucessor of Mohammed should be someone from his blood. Sunna is who says the sucessor should come from community trust.
It is not, per Definition, authoriatarian, but might be or not a characteristic of it's currently followers.
I'd say that electing someone by blood sounds less democratic then by Trust, so you might be right
I'm reading. What comes to mind:
-nazi Germany was also doing human experiments. As Japan was their partner I believe they could do the same
-it always impresses me that Japan came out as the victim from WW2 (due to atomic bombs). My Korean friends says more Korean and Chinese slaves working in Japan died when the bomb dropped than japanese.
This whole stuff of painting Japan ad victim is highly suspicious
Im having real issues understanding Main feed vs Inbox in #gossip.
Whats is the difference between them, and whats the meaning of the switch "Replies and DM and "everything" on the screen?
Why people that I follow dont appear on my Main Feed, just when I open their profile?
How can I see only the topics started directly by people I follow, ignoring when they are just replyings?
On top of that, sometimes I dont see peoples messages, so I think theres a bug, but then the messages appear. It would be nice to make it clear that messages are still being loaded
npub1acg6thl5psv62405rljzkj8spesceyfz2c32udakc2ak0dmvfeyse9p35c It would be good to make some documentation explaining all of the things above, maybe a "how to" tutorial, with the following:
-How to see all posts initiated by the people I follow in one screen, with all of them inside?
-How to see their replies to other topics
-How do I know if gossip found no messages of a person, or if it is still loading them?
See the history of US taxation. Before World War I it almost zero (1% to 7%), and when it came it skyrocketed.
According to Investopedia: "The first estate tax was enacted in 1797 in order to fund the U.S. Navy. It was repealed but reinstituted over the years, often in response to the need to finance wars. The modern estate tax as we know it was implemented in 1916. "
Maybe they found war a good excuse to get more money!
On top of that, armaments industry has also to make lobbying to get funding, and no one will buy armaments without a good old war.

With a place full of tensions as Israel-Palestine, War industry dont even need to make a war, it just has to create a "security oversight" in Israel defenses, to let a war start

How to redirect any service to it's open source version: use Farside.
Example:
For Reddit:
https://farside.link/libreddit/r/popular
For YouTube:
https://farside.link/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ
Farside will redirect it to a currently open source online instance (other tools forget the online requirement).
You can use it with the "Redirector" add on so you don't have to type anything.
I use ASus AC-68U with Asus Merlin. If read I cannot use OpenWRT with it due to broadcom, ist it right?
I used DD-WRT before and it was very unstable, so I Stuck to merlin. The problem is that theres no PF firewall on it.
Whats your recommendation to me? To try dd-wrt again on asus, or keep on asus merlin?
Israel should be given land proportional to it's legal Jewish population before 1948.
Or the area corresponding to privately owned Jewish land at the time
And legal is tricky because England was coloning Palestine and their colonization status being legal or not is a other debate.
Since COVID is right wingers damaging UN and WHO.
Of course WHO was stupid lying about masks not being effective just to protect doctors, but now I see the Right wing had also other motivations
Thanks for the distinction between genocide and ethnic cleansing.
I looked into UNs Definition of both. While There's a clear definition of genocíde there, there's no clear definition of ethic cleansing. The examples given give me the impression that genocide is ethnic cleansing on steroids.

You would be very please do read some law books on State Theory.
The definition of a State needs 3 elements:
- A people
- A Territory
-A controlling power effective inwards and outwards, guaranteeing it's sovereignty
While I see the syntax of what you say, what is it's semantics?
I can only agree or disagree with this claim if it comes with the assumed definition of Zionism and anti semitic, specially as there are many definitions of anti semitic.
I remember seeing an article written in Times of Israel by
Moshe Mordechai van Zuiden in which he says that thinking of Jews as equals to the rest of humanity is anti semitic, because it would mean denying their role as the selected people of God. I can't agree with him.
It seems they have taken the article down, but here's the link:
https://blogs.timesofisrael.com/to-dislike-certain-ethnicities-is-racist-to-see-jews-as-equal-is-antisemitic/
Another definition of anti semitism is this the IHRA definition, made by Israeli lobby.
As I remember that Germans coined definitions of being anti-german to say that protecting Jews was anti German, I tend not to trust big poweful governments defining what is to be against their people.
See more the American Civil Liberties Union on this topic:
https://www.aclu.org/press-releases/aclu-statement-senate-introduction-anti-semitism-awareness-act
Moving on from the syntax vs semantics topic, I have read some books on Constitutional Law and General Theory of State, and found very clarifying to read that a State is defined by three distinct elements:
a) a People
b) a Territory
c) a government with power to remain sovereign by acting inwards and outwards of the territory.
I agree that being anti-Israel, if Israel is defined to be it's people as in the Bible, is anti semitic, but being against the politicians of Israeli State (government) is not the same as being against it's people.
I agree that Israel (as people and State) should exist, but the territory has to be proportionate to the amount of Jewish people living on the region legally just before the creation of the State (government) of Israel.
The definition of "legally" get difficult in practice if I consider the British colonial power at the time being legal or not.
Moreover, which is the way you consider proper to criticize actions of politicians in Israel? Only in a democracy it's possible to criticize it's politicians and governments. If not, that's not a democracy

For me, if am a newbie in a topic, I know I'll find a lot of outdated Information on the internet, many bad Tutorials, and trying one by one to find out they are wrong is cost intensive. In this scenario I prefer a video, because trying many of them to sort which are good and bad takes less mental energy and is more motivating.
However, when I feel good enough in a topic, I prefer text
