No hits on the first generation of video games (as expected), let's see if there are any nostriches out there with second generation systems. image The second generation of video games refers to consoles and handhelds from around 1976 to 1983. It includes things like the Atari 2600 and 5200, Intellivision, ColecoVision, and Vectrex. Drop a picture in the replies from your collection for a badge. We'll tackle the third generation in December. #gamestr #retrogaming #videogames #gaming

Alright client devs, please feel free to steal this - this is what I envision a normie-friendly nostr client doing. A thread that I'll probably keep adding to. I think when you first install a nostr client app / go to a nostr web client, it shouldn't ask for your nsec or signer details, but instead asks if you are new to nostr and would like some help. Options would be - I'm a current Nostr user - I'm new to Nostr and would like some help The "I'm new to nostr" option has some brief things that you click through that explain in simple terms and images/animations what nostr is and some best practices. It might also recommend a signer and link to it. It should help users with their relays. It should not link out to a website with a wall of text. All explanations are provided in app. #nostr

I'm binging the Alien movies. I think if I had to rank the ones I've seen it would look something like this: 8. AVP:R 7. AVP 6. Alien Resurrection 5. Alien: Covenant 4. Alien 3 3. Prometheus 2. Alien 1. Aliens I haven't seen seen Romulus yet. Alien 3 is a tough one. I like the Assembly Cut, that's probably enough to give it the edge over Covenant, otherwise I might flip the two.

Its not cool to live through your kids. You're living your life, let them live theirs... ...and yet, my kids got hockey gear today and I'm insanely jealous of them. They're so excited.

Prometheus is wildly flawed movie just dying to be a good movie. I'm surprised they haven't done a directors cut yet.

Nostr client devs: if you are looking free UI/UX feedback, I'm your huckleberry. My qualifications are simple - I'm an experienced sub-midwit. In other words, I am the normie you are trying to cater your app to. You know where to find me. image

My son lost his first tooth yesterday. Did the tooth under the pillow thing, went off without a hitch. When I was a kid my dad woke me up exchanging the money for the tooth. When I asked him what he was doing, he said he was checking to the make sure the tooth fairy didn't rip me off. I've never forgotten that, and have been ready to use that same line on my kids if things go south. #dadstr

I'm watching Alien, thinking to myself, Ridley Scott has to be one of the most inconsistent directors. That can't be right though, who is more inconsistent than Scott? #film #movies

I've been on a Bowie kick lately. Probably a hot take, but if you took the best songs from Low, Heroes, and Lodger (his Berlin Trilogy), you probably would be left with a single album that is as good, or better than Scary Monsters (imho Bowie's best album). I listen to David Bowie to hear Bowie, not Brian Eno, so I could do without side two on both Low and Heroes. Lodger is growing on me, but skip a lot of songs on it. I should come up with a Berlin Trilogy single album playlist... #classicrock #music image

Alright Nostr, I just set up Citrine. What's the best way to go back and rebroadcast all my notes so they hit Citrine? #asknostr
