There's finally a quality app for editing and annotating screenshots on GNOME. I gave it a try, and it's exactly what I was waiting for: https://flathub.org/en/apps/be.alexandervanhee.gradia I love the blur-out tool for obscuring parts of the image, but all the other ones also work really well.

@0xtr Is your relay private now, or did I hit some kind of overeager spam control? 🤔

Was looking for a coffee shop to work from in the area and accidentally ended up with this view: I think I might come back here, because it's actually somewhat motivating for working on bitcoin-related things. 😅

This is cool, but why would I want a social identity attached to my network access? Don't we want our transports to be as anonymous as possible? Maybe I misunderstand how this works, or what it's for... View article →

"Strong minds discuss ideas, average minds discuss events, weak minds discuss people." Time to build.

"For the first time ever, good talk is exponentially more valuable than good code."

Code is cheap. Show me the talk.

Linus Torvalds once said, 'Talk is cheap. Show me the code'. That is no longer the case.

One thing that's interesting to me is when FOSS creators complain about LLMs "stealing" "private" code. Isn't it actually amazing how you can use the LLMs' knowledge of that code for creating more FOSS now? Epic win in my book. Free ALL THE CODE! ✊

Is there any Nostr event kind for reviews that includes a property for a rating/score? I.e. "4 out of 5 stars", like GMaps or Amazon. I'm adding Nostr place reviews (with photos) for OSM POIs to my new unhosted maps app this week, and I don't want to reinvent the wheel. /cc @BTC Map

I don't think we all use the same definition for the term "censorship resistance":

Censorship Resistance

A permissioned network with known validators, of which you only need to compel a third to censor transactions or freeze funds, is almost the opposite of "censorship-resistant" in my book. Maybe I'm missing something? 🤔

Not sure how many clients can deal with calendar events at the moment, but I just published my first one: View article →

🎉 Join me at Hacker Beach! 📅 December 31, 2025PST 📍 Koh Lanta Yai, Thailand Hacker Beach is a month-long, spontaneous, self-organized gathering of hackers and like-minded people on a tropical island (or coast). It happens every year in January. There is no organization, no prepackaged deal, no tickets to purchase, or registration forms to submit. The gist is: if you want to recharge your body and mind in a warm and relaxed place, with enough Internet to work and play from, affordable accommodation, delicious food, and no rowdy tourist groups around, but instead a bunch of hackers and their friends… just show up at our destination sometime during the month of January! 🔗

Plektos - Decentralized Meetup Events

Plektos is a decentralized meetup platform, built on Nostr. Create, join, and manage events with privacy and freedom.

Someone should organize a Nostr meetup in Da Nang:

This is a neat idea:

Listen Later, turn articles into podcasts

Email a link or forward a newsletter. Listen Later turns it into a podcast episode in your personal podcast feed for any podcast app.

Could probably be replicated with ecash payments to a Nostr AI service for processing, then storing the files (incl. an updated RSS document) on a Blossom server or similar.

For someone without any experience in AI image generation, what are currently the best options for generating decorative illustrations (e.g. of mascot animals) with transparent backgrounds, and perhaps even in SVG format, for use on websites and in apps?
