No one is useless in this world who lightens the burdens of another. Charles Dickens

The absurdity lies in pretending that infrastructure still dictates service when, in fact, services have become abstracted from the infrastructure that once defined them. Email was once metaphorically aligned with postal mail because it mirrored a sequence of identifiable steps—sender, envelope, address, transport, delivery. But the metaphor is now an anchor. It drags with it legacy concepts like "inboxes," "postmaster," and "sending," when what actually happens is instantiation—content appears, synced or polled, with no van, no bag, no carrier. Postal mail required physical intermediaries: boxes, post offices, uniformed workers. Email pretended to have these too—SMTP servers, MX records, mail clients. But now, these are modules. Optional. Invisible. Swappable. And if you squint, mostly irrelevant. You can receive email with no inbox. You can “send” without a sender. Identity is optional. Structure is divorced from essence. We maintain “recognition” of services as if they are still coupled to a whole stack. But modularity exploded that illusion. You no longer need a post office to receive a letter. You no longer need a newsstand to publish a newspaper. You don’t need a university to learn, a bank to transact, or a theatre to perform. The act of “service recognition” is revealed as pure theatre—ritual vestiges serving the comfort of bureaucracy. Structural separation was once a regulatory weapon (telcos and pipes, content and carriage). Now it is the native condition. A podcast isn't a radio show. A bitcoin transaction isn’t a bank transfer. An email isn't a letter. Yet the accreditation systems, legal treatments, and mental models still behave as if the post office is involved. It’s not. It left years ago.

**If the Rooster Crows Twice** *(Slavic polka in 2/4)* **Verse 1** If the rooster crows twice and the moon stays high, I’ll be home by dawn, if the boots stay dry. The cart rolls straight, the mare don’t stray, The saints keep watch and the wolves keep away. **Chorus** Ay di di dai, with a jug in my hand, Through snow or sun, I’ll cross this land. The good Lord willing and the rivers don’t rise, I’ll be back to your arms and your apple-pie eyes. **Verse 2** If the border guard drinks and the fiddle still sings, If the vodka flows warm and the church bell rings, Then I’ll dance through the orchard, step through the gate, With a loaf in my coat and no more weight. **Chorus** Ay di di dai, with a song on my tongue, The barrel’s still turning, the night is still young. The good Lord willing and the stove don’t smoke, I’ll be telling the tales and I’ll laugh at the joke. **Bridge** Oh baba said, “Watch the stars for your path,” But I watch for your light and I dodge Heaven’s wrath. No general, no mayor, no beast of the wood Can turn me from home, if the omens are good. **Final Chorus** Ay di di dai, through the birch and the rye, Through thunder and hail, I’ll never say die. The good Lord willing and the pigs don’t fly, We’ll polka ‘til morning with tears in our eye.

In an environment where truth and lies intermingle freely, the ability to discern between them—discrimination in the sense of critical judgment—is crucial. The phrase "every truth is told amidst a blizzard of every lie" suggests a chaotic information landscape, where accurate information is obscured by falsehoods, half-truths, and noise. This scenario mirrors the modern information age, where data overload, misinformation, and competing narratives make it challenging to identify reliable truths. Below, I explore why discrimination, as a cognitive and analytical skill, is vital in such a context, along with its implications and challenges. \

to stand up and fight for the core values that have made this country the envy of the world. It's not about fighting, it's about living those values in a way that makes the abuse of the State insignificant. Fighting, look around at the Waste and tell me it's deserved, or beneficial, except to some few sociopaths. If they want to lead, they want to rule, the end.

Haha, glad I’m making you feel safer! I hear you—no reboots, just a straightforward local media player app for your ASUSTOR Flashstor 6 FS6706T to display images and videos on the HDMI-connected monitor. Since you’re seeing a prompt and only "half a screen," we’ll focus on getting a local player app running without fuss, likely fixing the display issue in the process. ### Solution: Set Up a Local Media Player App The FS6706T’s HDMI output needs an app to render media properly, as its default HDMI signal might just show a basic prompt or partial screen (likely a resolution mismatch). Here’s how to get a local player app displaying images and videos: 1. **Access ADM (ASUSTOR’s Web Interface)**: - On another device (phone, laptop, etc.), open a browser and go to `http://[NAS_IP]:8000` (e.g., http://192.168.1.100:8000). Find the NAS’s IP via your router’s device list or a network scanner like Fing (mobile app) or Angry IP Scanner (PC). - Log in with your admin credentials (default is admin/admin if unchanged—set a new password for security). 2. **Install a Media Player App**: - In ADM, click **App Central** (looks like an app store icon). - Search for and install one of these local player apps for HDMI output: - **Video Station**: ASUSTOR’s native app for playing videos and viewing images stored on the NAS. It supports common formats (MP4, AVI, JPEG, PNG, etc.) and outputs directly to HDMI via ASUSTOR Portal. - **LooksGood**: Another ASUSTOR app focused on media playback, good for videos and slideshows. - **Plex Media Server** (optional): More robust, supports images/videos, and has a clean HDMI interface but might need more setup. - Install **ASUSTOR Portal** if it’s not already there (search in App Central). This app is required for any HDMI output, acting as the bridge to display content on your monitor. - No reboot needed unless the app install explicitly prompts for it (rare). 3. **Fix the "Half a Screen" Issue**: - In ADM, go to **Settings > Hardware > HDMI** or **ASUSTOR Portal > Settings**. - Set the resolution to match your monitor (try 1920x1080 for standard HD or 3840x2160 for 4K). The "half a screen" is likely the NAS outputting a mismatched resolution (e.g., 4K on a 1080p display). - If no settings are available yet, launch ASUSTOR Portal from ADM’s desktop, and it should auto-detect the monitor. 4. **Play Media on the Monitor**: - Connect a USB keyboard/mouse to the FS6706T’s USB ports for navigation. - Open **Video Station** (or LooksGood/Plex) from the ASUSTOR Portal interface on the monitor. - Browse to your media files (stored on the NAS’s drives, e.g., in shared folders like “Public” or “Media”). You might need to: - Copy files to the NAS first (via ADM’s **File Explorer** or drag-and-drop from your PC to a shared folder). - Ensure files are in supported formats (Video Station handles MP4, AVI, MKV, JPEG, PNG well). - Select a video or image to play. Video Station can create slideshows for images or play videos directly on the HDMI output. 5. **If the Prompt Persists**: - If the screen still shows a vague prompt (e.g., setup, error, or something about “NAS voyage”), it might be from: - **Initial Setup**: If the NAS isn’t fully configured, complete the setup in ADM (Storage Manager > Initialize drives if no volumes exist). - **ASUSTOR Portal**: If it’s asking for app selection, choose Video Station or LooksGood from the Portal interface. - If you can share the exact prompt text or describe what’s on the “half a screen,” I can pinpoint the issue further. ### Notes: - **Supported Formats**: Video Station and LooksGood handle most video (MP4, MKV, AVI) and image formats (JPEG, PNG). For obscure formats, Plex is better but needs a quick account setup. - **No Network Streaming**: These apps play files locally from the NAS’s drives, so no internet is required for playback. - **AceMagic TLC**: Since you mentioned the AceMagic mini PC is grinding, avoid using it until you clean the fan (compressed air or open it up) or confirm warranty status, as it’s likely overheating. If the “half a screen” or prompt doesn’t clear up, or you hit a specific snag (e.g., app not showing, weird error), let me know the details, and I’ll zero in tighter! Want me to check anything specific about Video Station or another app?

According to data from Validatorqueue, the exit queue now holds around 2.63 million ETH, valued at nearly $12.3 billion. This backlog means participants seeking to withdraw their assets face a waiting period of roughly 45 days and 18 hours before their transactions can be completed. At the same time, more than 634,000 ETH — worth about $2.97 billion — are lined up on the other side of the process, waiting to be activated as validators. That queue carries a delay of just over 11 days.

An outburst of vile racism and bigotry at the Tommy Robinson demo. Speaker Brian Tamaki declares: "Ban any type of public expression in our Christian nation from other religions. Ban Halal, ban Burquas. Ban mosques, ban temples, ban shrines - we don’t want those in our countries."

All right. Here’s a quiet renaming pass that aligns names with the themes — **manipulation vs denial**, **causality vs doubt** — without foregrounding them. No loud symbolism, just tonal undercurrents. --- ### The Manipulator **New name: Renn** * Short, sharp, unremarkable at first glance — easy to miss in a crowd, which suits someone who inserts himself everywhere. * Echoes “rend” (to tear), which hints at the damage he causes. * Also resonates faintly with “wren,” a bird associated with cunning in Celtic lore — but that’s buried deep. * Could pass as a first or last name in any context, adding to his slipperiness. --- ### The Denier **New name: Halm** * Soft, earthy, a little odd. Not quite familiar. * It’s an old English word for “stalk” or “stem” — literally *what remains when the rest has fallen away*. * Feels like someone rooted but quiet, peripheral but central. * Doesn’t demand belief — just exists, like a stone or a field. --- If you want to go subtler still, Renn and Halm can both be aliases — identities that slip through fingers. But they’ll carry the contrast: one cutting lines, the other refusing the map. Would you like a short dialogue where their names are first introduced, naturally, without underlining any of this?

[ { "type": "text", "value": "Today is demo day at soveng! Recklessly introducing Nutoff: a local Cashu wallet with a twist. It can be used via the command line or remotely through ContextVM. This allows users to interact with their local wallet remotely. Some methods are publicly accessible, such as 'make_invoice,' so anyone can generate invoices to pay you, while others, like 'pay_invoice,' are restricted to approved pubkeys, allowing only you or authorized users to spend from the wallet.\n\nNutoff also includes a web server component that translates between the local Cashu wallet and the LNURL (LUD06/LUD16) specification, enabling email-like Lightning addresses. This service runs publicly and proxies requests between Lightning wallets and the local Cashu wallet without handling funds directly. It is intended to be a public service run by a service provider, a community, or similar.\n\nThe idea that inspired this project is npub.cash, which is a great service that allows anyone to have a Cashu wallet without hassle. The difference between npub.cash and Nutoff is that npub.cash stores nuts in a database run by the service, while with Nutoff, the database runs locally. This improves the security model, but the drawback is that you need to run the wallet on one of your devices, such as a computer running Umbrel or Start9, a phone, a rpi, etc. This security model ensures that the wallet remains local, with all critical data stored on the user's device.\n\nKey use cases include:\n\n1. **Automatic Wallet**: Runs locally on a device, enabling payments without the need for accounts or data custody.\n2. **Spontaneous POS**: Can start receiving payments immediately, ideal for merchants in flea markets.\n3. **Community LNURL Server**: Provides Lightning addresses for a community, family, or friends using a custom domain.\n4. **Custom Applications**: Limited only by imagination.\n\nNutoff offers a flexible, secure, and local solution for managing Cashu wallets with various deployment options.\n\nWallet: " }, { "type": "link", "href": "https://github.com/gzuuus/nutoff-wallet", "value": "https://github.com/gzuuus/nutoff-wallet", "data": { "eol": true } }, { "type": "text", "value": "\nLNURL proxy: " }, { "type": "link", "href": "https://github.com/gzuuus/nutoff-http", "value": "https://github.com/gzuuus/nutoff-http", "data": { "eol": true } }, { "type": "text", "value": "\n\nCC " }, { "type": "mention", "decoded": { "type": "nprofile", "data": { "pubkey": "50d94fc2d8580c682b071a542f8b1e31a200b0508bab95a33bef0855df281d63", "relays": [ "wss://eden.nostr.land/", "wss://hist.nostr.land/" ] } }, "encoded": "nprofile1qqs9pk20ctv9srrg9vr354p03v0rrgsqkpggh2u45va77zz4mu5p6ccpzemhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejz7qgkwaehxw309a5xjum59ehx7um5wghxcctwvshsfmrzrk" }, { "type": "text", "value": " " }, { "type": "mention", "decoded": { "type": "nprofile", "data": { "pubkey": "ddf03aca85ade039e6742d5bef3df352df199d0d31e22b9858e7eda85cb3bbbe", "relays": [ "wss://nos.lol", "wss://nostr-pub.wellorder.net" ] } }, "encoded": "nprofile1qqsdmup6e2z6mcpeue6z6kl08he49hcen5xnrc3tnpvw0mdgtjemh0spp4mhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mqpr4mhxue69uhkummnw3ez6ur4vgh8wetvd3hhyer9wghxuet5cq87e5" }, { "type": "text", "value": " \n\n", "data": { "eol": true } } ]
