 people still email me asking to reset their damus password. oh boy. 
 damus probably shouldnt do this 😅

 I tried to make zaps a bolt12 thing at the start but I couldn’t figure this part out 
 I don’t see how web clients could fetch offer invoices though, would have to use lnsocket/lnmessage and websocket proxies. With lnurl it’s much easier for web apps to fetch invoices. 
 Is Damus coming to Android? I saw a few videos from Will that looks like it is running on an Andr... 
 its in development 
 what are the most important reasons to use nostr over all other platforms?

 i started building nostrdb so that I could do outbox in a safer way without worrying about rogue relays. its a slow WIP but its coming. we're calling it relay autopilot. 
 We accidentally nuked the purple api server the other day and I just rolled it back  😎 
 mleku is the definition of hipster regarded. brainless go maxi. 
 Its ok we do it to each other all the time 
 this doesn’t stop you from getting into an invalid state that is hard to recover from. mutable system state will bitrot your system over time. 
 I’ve never had to start over on my machine for over 10 years, every switch to a new state is like a fresh install. 
 Is there a "mute/block word" filter in Primal or Damus?

I really really want to never hear anyth... 
 You can highlight a word and mute it here https://i.nostr.build/utZfRI1emlCG4iOr.jpg  
 It mutes the entire post if it has that word in it 
 You can also add it manually in the muted section of the sidemenu, + button top right 
 Hooray, now that I'm completely dependent on typescript, the type checker is now failing on line ... 
 noone told me! 
 ew 
 Sure if you’re on the jvm 
 I do like functional programming but dynamic langs still scare me for large apps 
 alignment matters on arm if doing zero copy flatbuffer stuff, on intel its just a performance hit. this has nothing to do with lmdb tho, we use lmdb on ios and it works fine. 
 been adding 10g of hydrolyzed collagen to my tea in the morning. this is what happens when I start listening to the huberman podcast 
 these are collagen peptides 
 So much unknowns, i tend to try things one at a time and see if it had an impact on anything, to gather data at least 
 hmm I'll look into it 
 interesting! 
 Reminder: do not use Nostr without a VPN 
 I don’t use a vpn, what will happen to me? 
 Our local search returns a lot more results now! And is a bit more user friendly nostr:note1n08n7xxhkmgs36dgcj36q8u8ehzxd49ma0ttkjk2qgztha69n3xsxuwlmh 
 we should probably put the word instead of just Notes ? like we do with hashtag

 I think our chinese translation pair is broken… will try to fix 
 I meant on the purple translation side 
 Curiously even apple translations are not working even with the lang pack 
 Yes… 
 Oh right… preferred language issue 
 I’ve been thinking about this for a long time. We need a religion/tradition where these values gets passed down to each new generation, otherwise bitcoin will likely fail in the long term. People will forget why it was created and stop caring. nostr:note1wmxzyfzzx20yhq0ta6yqx8hlacnflqt3hhsfn5jm0vzs7j0rqvfqm3wer2 
 yes I unironically believe this would be a good idea 
 Looking forward to “the talk” with my son 
 I think someone tried to seriously do this:

Not sure what the status of it is 
 A very grand morning to you all 🤙

 I thought the whole point of taproot was to make multisig undistinguished from single sig. 

Whic... 
 musig adoption has been slow… let alone frost. not even sure what wallets support it. 
 guys, stop picking partners by what they look like but instead by how they treat you. your life will be 100x better. 
 true 
 🥲 
 Yeah this was just from convos with some guy friends recently. Was actually shocked and appalled with what they put up with 
 works both ways 
 guys tend to hyper fixate on looks more though (i think?) 
 how cool is it that we are all coordinating and communicating in a public space using cryptography and no-one can stop us. it's a subtle thing you tend to forget while shitposting and having fun, but it's still pretty mind blowing to me. 
 Lol 
 my home internet was going down multiple times a day every day for the past week, so I created some ping/monitoring scripts to track exactly when and how long and on which devices.

after I started running the script I shit you not it's been like 3 days and the internet stopped going down. what kind of Schrödinger's cat bs is this.

The only logical conclusion at this point is that the ping script is keeping my network alive 
 It’s still up! wtf indeed 
 Arrived in the US. First time back since I was 8yo. Not sure how I feel about this place yet 🤔... 
 We should hit up e11even next time. Great spot. 
 😂 
 Last time i went there let’s just say I’m thankful my card wasn’t working. The workers are very aggressive.
