Maybe I'm just an overindulged modern, but does anyone else think that these meal prep serving sizes look way too small? Perhaps the protein helps to fill you up fast, but I fear I'd be way too hungry after this. I'm used to doing more volume eating with a good deal of cabbage, carrots, and other veg. #nutrition #healthstr #asknostr

Anybody planning to make a desktop client? It would be great to have a Nostr client that promoted secure FOSS clients for Linux, Windows, etc. #asknostr View quoted note →

I'm maybe only 20-30 minutes into @CJ Killmer's first episode on psychopathic rulers, but he does a great job of distinguishing between psychopathy and psychosis. I'll definitely finish this episode and the follow-up he's released just recently. However, I thought those interested in such topics might enjoy a few other, related books that I'm currently working through: 1. 5 Types of People Who Can Ruin Your Life Bill Eddy, a social worker, defines what Narcissists and Sociopaths are and goes on to explain his own category of 'High-Conflict Personalities'. He's built something of a career on defining this HCP category and teaching others how to deal with them

2. The Sociopath Next Door Dr. Martha Stout expertly weaves her teachings on sociopathy with vivid, living examples of who sociopaths are and what they do.

Making sure you're not a bot!

I've not finished either yet, but I think both works help to give us a clear image of the types of people we're dealing with on a daily basis, particularly those in leadership (whether in business or in government). #readstr #bookstr #psychology View quoted note →

I turned off my VPN for the first time in forever to test something and forgot to switch it back on. However, I finally caught it when I tried to go to Archive.today, only to find that my local ISP had blocked the site, claiming it was some kind of scam site. This is the first time I've ever encountered such a warning from my ISP, which goes to show that it really does pay to have a VPN. Who is my ISP to tell me whether I can use an alternative archiving site or not?! #privacy #freedomtech

Say no to a loss of both custody and privacy! View quoted note →

Is it possible to publish a Nostr note without typos? 🤔 (It took me attempts to write the question above. 😄)

I've set up #Bitchat on my phone and got another friend to do the same. Both are Android. We've both messed around with the app, tried toggling Bluetooth on and off, etc. Unfortunately, neither of us can see the other. Any recommendations for fixing this? Or any ideas of what we overlooked? #asknostr

Nostriches, when are we going to fork the Brave browser? Let's dump BAT and use lightning or cashu to earn while surfing. That would help to avoid KYC nonsense on Brave as well! #asknostr #grownostr

I know Nostr seems to be predominantly keto or carnivore, but... Has anyone tried to nixtamalize corn themselves? Did you use wood ash (as in the attached video) or another method? Is it a process you'd repeat again? #asknostr #traditionalfood #wapf

I know I'm a little late to the party here, but forgive me. I'm just discovering #Reticulum for the first time now. Last night, I watched this video on YouTube about a guy named Juraj sending sats with a LoRa broadcast, using the Reticulum protocol and cashu. If I understand everything correctly, that broadcast is encrypted, so there's little threat of the tokens being stolen. As long as the cashu mint is still up and running, the recipient gets his sats and can convert them back to LN or even standard BTC thereafter. Super cool!

#Meshtastic & #Reticulum nerds, I'm thinking about getting a bunch of cheap devices and playing with both protocols. If I've understood things correctly, Meshtastic works more like a radio in that each device itself is what has an 'identity' and that your phone app merely helps you to access any messages that come through. Thus, if some friends and I wanted to test out Meshtastic, we'll each need our own LoRa devices, even if all at the same office or residence. For Reticulum, the RNode device relays messages, but your identity is actually tied to Sideband or whatever software you're using. So in that case, we could get away with a single RNode device on a single property but have different mobile devices with Sideband. At least, for testing purposes when everyone is within reasonable range of the device. Am I on the right path so far? #asknostr
