"CR" for short. Edited "Kicking the Hornet's Nest" (everything Satoshi wrote publicly in chronological order). Made the Nostr Wiki at https://nostrwiki.vercel.app and Nostr bridges: Nostrdon (with Mastodon) & Hostr (with Hive). Home page: https://crrdlx.vercel.app
I had to replace some batteries just now and was reminded of a pet peave of mine.
Why do things have to be packaged in the hardest most indestructible plastic known to man? I literally have to get out a kitchen knife and jab it like into a wild boa'rs throat to slit it open. Nothing unsafe there.
And how can little old ladies do this?
And why are things that are made of plastic made from the cheapest and weakest plastic possible, not this indestructible packaging plastic?
Clearly this fellow is not stable and not right in the head. But, part of me felt this was a calculus staged to show insanity in hopes of receiving a lessened sentence. But, doesn't that rather simply prove he's lucid and sane?
I stopped watching TV shows largely because of the culture signaling that relentlessly is pushed.
A co-worker loved "Ted Lasso" so I watched it. Entertaining, loved the idea of changing a work culture, but all the other signaling was off-putting. Got the sense that changing a football team was just a metaphor for changing your world view and values into theirs.
Back to no TV.
Argh. Across the street there is one of those "little libraries" where people can drop a book or take a book. It's fun to open it up, look inside, and find whatever you might find. I've found and read some good books from there, ones that I never would have picked up in a library or store. So, it's fun and broadens my range, so to speak.
Recently I found one with a title and cover that piqued my curiosity. It had a four medallion-like awards on the cover. I figured, "It must be a good book to win four awards." My rule is that I don't read the back cover because it releases too much information and spoils the story. I took it home. I read a bit one night, then a bit more the second night.
I started wondering where this was going exactly. I searched one of the awards and my wondering was confirmed. The book was pro-something-that-I-am-not. The second award I searched was the same. "I'm done," I thought, closed the book, and it is no longer in the mix.
I kind of chuckled at the whole thing, but then today it occurred to me that Google now has those two queries as part of my search algorithm. Who knows what it's going to send my way now! Argh!
I've been so busy lately, or it's seemed that way, that when I finally sit down to try to catch up on things...I don't know where to even start!
I think I'll just go jogging instead.
This article sounds like the playbook not merely for moving from web2 to web3, but from #web3 to things like #nostr and even to something like nostr that is mesh-connected using old-school radio and no DNS. I think of nostr, and #bitchat, and #reticulum, and whatever else we haven't even imagined yet.
