GM. ☕ Have a great day. Still figuring out what client use in phone, so no pictures at morning sunshine. On laptop trying Qubes OS, so a big pain to send things to different Qubes...but pretty cool compartmentalization for sure.

GM. Every action has a reaction. What we are seeing, or about to see, its a reaction of the same magnitude (or worst) to the past action. It seams that we cant just stop the sequence. Its almost impossible to stay central, free, and independent but we MUST. Pursue truth and let that be the common ground, when one side go to far call it out. Expose it to the light and to the truth. Human empathy, freedom and decentralized tech, and physical freedom is paramount. Freedom is not excuse for lawlessness, your choices have consequences. But at least you should be free to choose, and when those consequences are not congruent with what is moral, true and fair then the law givers have fail. When your actions are the ones not moral, true and fair, then you have fail. We have always need, and always will need, a north, a moral, or a natural guide our lives. "The line separating good and evil passes not through states, nor between classes, nor between political parties either—but right through every human heart." - Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

Love Them, Cherish Them "The gift and the challenge? More time with my kids than most dads get. Days filled with them. It's a blast. Diapers, potty training, sticky fingers, the easy stuff. Expected. A privilege, really. But here's what I'm learning: Undivided attention. Presence. That's the hard part. The part that fades...." https://www.javierfeliu.com/love-them-cherish-them/

Got locked out (my fault) from accessing nostr with my original keys. Was bad config on Alby (on my part). Feel really good going to my vault, verify my keys and solve the issue once I notice I was using some random generated keys. A good reminder for me that no one will be there to save me if I loose them. That is a good thing.

Celebrating my mother's birthday, the first year without my dad for their anniversary, her birthday, Christmas, etc. I have heard elsewhere that you don't truly become an adult until you lose one of your parents or become one yourself. Now, having walked both roads, I think becoming a father helps you understand yours better. But losing one gives you a unique perspective on time and the urgency to show love to yours, as one day, inevitably, YOU WILL say the last goodbye.

I just signed up for the Alby Hub, their cloud-paid version, not the self-hosted. I’ve been mostly absent from all social media, slowly working my way out of centralized bubbles. I’ve always had the philosophy that if you're open-source AND give your product for free, so others can self-host or do whatever they want, AND you offer a version that makes my life simpler and allows me to support your business, but it gives me the freedom to do the same on my terms whenever I decide to, then it’s a no-brainer. I love seeing Alby go self-custodial and allowing this community and this tech to grow, especially for non-tech people like me. Right after subscribing, they wrote to my alby acct email to check on the process, and with no need to really offer help or answer questions he did. I really hope to be able to self-host at some point. Then I will find other ways to support them. @Alby @Moritz

#asknostr question: Does anyone know a way to distribute my blog posts on #nostr? I use Ghost CMS, and while I'm glad they decided to start working with ActivityPub, I wish they had chosen to fully embrace Nostr instead. Any thoughts on this, or alternative suggestions, are welcome!

GM! As I think about how to approach my morning and night free time. Be angry, and do not sin. Meditate within your heart on your bed, and be still. Psalm 4:4 I will both lie down in peace, and sleep; For You alone, O Lord, make me dwell in safety. Pslam 4:8 In the morning, O Lord, You will hear my voice; In the morning I will order my prayer to You and eagerly watch. Psalm 5:3
