I had to disconnect alby since it is has had to change its business strategy. Which led me to notice how fucking broken nearly every nostr client I use is. I appear to have managed it here, but who knows if it really worked, or if the removal of the wallet here will propagate to other clients.

Has anyone figured out how to find new stuff on nostr without needing eyebleach? Tried muting on primal, but can't make "network" very much better than when I started. Anything new worth looking at?

You know, it seems like- after attempting to take the life of one candidate and it fails- in this particular situation it might make sense for certain people to then attempt to take the life of the other one. It is the other one who is defying his donors, after all. It would be easily staged as a retaliation from some orange man supporter. Yet, no doubt, if it is done, it will be done more professionally and the people who benefit will be those same democrat donors droning on about how Biden must resign. This isn't a strong prediction or anything. I just realized things might work out well for these donors, the globalists, "THEM" if it does happen. Because everything is so tilted to Trump right now, I don't think they can fake it like they did last time- and they relied on the fact that most people aren't very numerate and can't understand a statistical argument. Maybe that's what they want- let Trump win and then let the economy collapse and blame him for it. But that means other interests- like those pushing war will be put out. Ukraine, the Middle East, our increasing bellicosity towards China- all that would stop with Trump. Additionally, whoever is into allowing so much illegal migration here would be put out. So some folks won't give in and just let him win. I guess it depends on what percentage of 'them' are down with one thing rather than the other.

I've been seeing foreign women, usually with children, begging in parking lots. Something about them makes me wonder if there isn't an organization that drops them off in these parking lots and makes them beg. Often it seems like they have no car and are relatively far away from bus stops.

Is plebstr still being worked on? I haven't seen an update in a while. Also a lot of notes just sort of hang, never loading completely.

I'd like to see some private libraries created. A lot of people think libraries are pointless now, but that's due in large part to the bureaucracy and wokeness that has been a part of public libraries now for too long. Notice how bad Google is now? The need for these services are more dire than ever, but your average library has just bought a bunch of crappy online services and tells you to believe the narrative instead of doing what they should be doing.

Seems like Google can be beat as a search engine, because Google a decade or two ago was better than it is now.

Previous to this dire situation, color revolution style protests showed up in Israel over an attempt to reform the judiciary. Perhaps this was not working as well as the promoters of color revolutions wanted. Surely, there's enough surveillance infrastructure there to catch an incursion of this size.

Using the justice system to bully lawyers into pleading guilty may be a problem in terms of building a case against your primary target. The primary target went to these lawyers for legal advice. He didn't go to these lawyers to break the law- he went to these lawyers to get what he wanted done via the law. Although I'm sure these people will try to contort things even further in an attempt to get what they want.

Power came back on. So now I will try to sleep again. Weird little blackout in a small part of the neighborhood.

Someone please put gravity on pause until my back figures out it is okay to move again.

Anyone else got a message with a invoice which states that it was generated because of something someone else did? Appears to be from a paid relay.

Need to create algo called "Finding the smart people."

Where is the secret market for incandescent light bulbs? #grownostr

This actor/writer strike- sure, probably the streaming services stiffed them. But, while they are doing this, well, my Mom hasn't watched American stuff for a while. She went for Asian stuff- mostly Korean, but she'll watch anything good. So, how do we start feeding good stuff into the distribution channels? Hollywood can't write a good show to save it's life. The terms may be bad for them, but they haven't delivered anything good for a while. We could beat them. Probably, we'll just see more foreign stuff on our streaming services, but if we want good English language stuff, we need to figure out how to make and distribute it.

Primal.net says its trying to connect me to my relays. Then I go looking for what my relays are and I don't see the setting. But I'm getting notes, just can't post.
