I think with all the ads in podcasts that people don't seem to mind, we should add them into audio books. I want to be listening to Vineland by Thomas Pynchon and get an ad for a hardware wallet.

In 1986, there were conferences like TCP/IP trade wars. People were all hot and sweaty about TCP. It revolutionized networked communication. But no one talks about it now even though this note was brought to you by TCP. But honestly, I can't wait until the part where we stop talking about nostr. The coked up parties about TCP/IP were probably better than the nostr parties are now anyway.

The two tapes used in the Sprouting Symphonies last night. Containing amazing lofi tracks by @Sir HeyCitizen. That SA90 came from @Boolysteed!! Value returned, given, returned, it's a beautiful circle.

Pretty nice tapey ambient album here. Also, I kinda dig these paper sleeves. The jcards are easier for me to make, I wonder what kind of adhesive is needed for these to stay together. But I might try it eventually.

Mmm, my favorite three Ms on Fridays. https://fountain.fm/live/phN65joIQB5DLWPve9s5 View quoted note →

I wonder if Derek Ross can get new Pope on nostr. I would love to hear him pitch his course on how to become pope.

This is bigger than any boost, more valuable than any zap. I feel seen and loved. Thank you 😍 There's been a few cassettes come in lately, thank you all for that. I've been enjoying them! I won't refuse a boost, but this is the great thing about value for value -- value can be shown in different ways. And well, tapes like these, are just... amazing. I think I will use these on Sunday for the Sprouting Symphonies, 1800 Central, liveislit.com where I will be playing back some @Sir HeyCitizen live (from tape).

Recording a mixtape, on actual tape, from someone who sent in a postcard right now. Cassettes are the low time preference of music media. We are still early into the cassette comeback. Have fun staying poor without cassettes? 🤣 Anyway, you can get yours at:

How to get a tape

The CD was called the "freedom format" by Sony. It wasn't a compliment as they realized it was too easy to copy. Which led to super locked down miniDisc and Digital Audio Tape (around format that was higher sound quality than CD).
