My favourite problem and greatest mystery, maybe a clue of how a trust-net such as nostr started to thrive ontop of a distrust-net like bitcoin.

I wish forest village ran on linux, bbl #reboot

Gn nostr

Sorry everyone, a friend of mine is in pain. And it affects my mood. It's nothing bad she'll be fine soon, bit RN she's effin annoying.

I'm truly uncomfortable with the general stupidity of crowds. Both sides of an argument of course

I don't get it, I wanted to have one toxic and one non-toxic profile. But looking back at my posts, I seem to have two toxic profiles. !🤦‍♂️!

Oh right, new version released this morning

Distraction free markdown editor

That was wierd, accidentally posted using wrong nsec while housecleaning. But place is shining and it's Friday 😌 Good frequencies to all of you

GM nostr, here's a joke for ya: What's the difference between a Bitcoin mining rig and a moonshine distillery?

The worst thing about CBDC is that it takes away the freedom to burn & destroy money.

After an earbud incident I was forced to go back to my old wired setup, holy crap the difference in quality is like 720 and 4K. Wireless is practical but even a pair of $30 in-ears play your favorite tracks with brilliant clarity.

I need to discover some music. Where to start?

#strytime topic: snail-mail I've been working a lot, machine learning is kinda stupid/fun, minus the low grade professors trying to steal my gig - go find your own hustle! it's not my fault you we're busy bullying each other in school while other people worked and learned. I delivered a vlog before week-end - client calls me back today, the experiment is still running. Nice Anywhoo a few days ago, I woke up late in the afternoon. And a peculiar postcard was lying in the box. The cover shows a cheerful woman in vintage clothing, happily holding a sign saying "depression".. Oh wait I know who this is... Some half a lifetime ago I went through a rough patch. It's ok. I traveled, searched, developed comfort-allergy 'ya know - standard issue. I met a girl at a festival, she wore goofy Harry Potter glasses and an alcohol tolerance that i do not possess. But what really caught my eye, she was using a Nokia, not a Samsung nor eyephone but a Nokia. Impressive. So I walked up to her and asked "How the heck do you survive without a smartphone?" "Easy! No notification-stress, no advertisement, no constant search for dopamine and no screaming ego" I was a little bit dumbstruck, I knew what she was talking about.. I had just finished my own voluntary offline year. But this chick right in front of me, she was the first individual I had met IRL who described that calm and peace - no way i'm telling her that. Instead I said "So wait, monochrome screen, no internet.. how do you share pictures with friends? Printouts through snail-mail??" "I have a laptop :)" We hung out, she's fun, more easy going than me, but that joke turned into reality.. We've been exchanging letters for a couple of years now.. Don't get me wrong, not 💌 really, but something else - I don't think figuring that out is important to either of us. The latency is horrible and the throughput abyssmal. I think our combined yearly efforts yield two dispatches each. Oh yeah poststamps are about $4 a mark now. Wierd. Anywhoo I let the postcard sit on the table for a few days - and just finished writing a reply. I should be able to seal and send within a month and I hope I give it one last read before I do. But the point is, snail mail and particularly attachments are really fun: You can post random things you pick up during travels. You can draw a qr-code by hand and pray it'll translate, write your reply on the back of a receipt. You can even draw a picture of ... you have artistic freedom. The important part is to take your time and do everything as slowly as you possibly can. This time i'm attaching a mixtape. haha.

I pulled the classic move, got a haircut and landed myself a job. But now I'm starting to remember why I went Corporate-AWOL. And why I am building decentralization, without giving a rat about `AUTHORS.md`.

Vibe of the day

Another entertaining read

Decentralizing the NIPs registry · Issue #162 · nostr-protocol/nips

Would be great if people could agree on NIPs and publish them on Nostr itself, without having to request permission from a cabal of maintainers of ...

The original question is valid but a bit futuristic in this ownership obsessed world: "Can we make the NIPs repo more decentralized?" Short answer: "No - You can not." Given modern tools we're already running at max decency, all future changes will take nostr one step closer to centralization, so just slow down. Anywhoo If you read past the comments where twitter screencaps from matrix elevator guy dials up the heat - And if you for some reason still feel unsettled: Keep Calm And The Nips Git Clone Git, the tool installed on your machine is an oldschool consensus free decentralized Blockchain. It is decentralized because it works offline and does not govern who you may or may not remote with. The pull and push commands however are prepetually stuck in status WIP - why? Cause there's no funding into legitimate research. So by cloning the nips repo, you become a FULL_NODE, and don't let anyone tell you otherwise. That's the beauty of it. I have some attempts at running git over DHTs/swarms, it's fun but not as easy as it sounds. For now, just clone and wait for the network plugin that you like to emerge. Everyone archiving the same legacy will merge with you regardless of transport. Wanna study the problem? Start with this page in the manual: ``` man git-remote-helpers ```
