Can someone wiser in #nostr please explain? I see all these accounts here for news, like #[1]​, #[2]​, #[3]​ (I'm sure many others I don't know about). What are they? I assume there are no humans behind it and comments or any reactions would be useless? #nostplebs

What a sad story. An older person wants in on "cryptocurrency" but also wants to give all money to someone else to manage and make profit instead of buying any, fine, let's stick with, "crypto" themselves.

But what is the answer to avoid such tempting scams, especially for vulnerable older people? https://www.npr.org/2023/06/25/1180256165/crypto-scam-senior-victims-spirebit

Do you remember the moment you signed up for Nostr? What brought you to it? For me, it was seeing all those strange long npub codes showing up on twitter.

I am having so much fun writing and then adding #nostr notes through #nocomment that associate with a note about an article (thanks @fiatjaf). Recently, I was on a roll to figure out how to get rid of a ghost old system extension on my mac. Those don't go quietly into the night. Once I had it clear in my head the how, I decided to write it down:

Get rid of any leftover Mac system extensions

I ended up with a left over ghost system extension that cannot be removed by any of the usual methods (sudo rm -rf). Here is a way around that so w...

and now I can add a comment section, yay!
