Spent Father's Day with my family at the Chapel of Sacred Mirrors. Glory be to the Father, the Child, and the Holy Mother. #alexgrey

Duckduck Go email is Da Duck Duck Bomb. Email has largely become something I use only for logins and password resets. Hence, it typically becomes a waste vastland of marketing hell. Seriously, why do I need an email every day for two weeks explaining how I can get the most out of my NEW PILLOW? Tracker removing forwarding address. You have to run their extension, but it lets you make an instant throwaway email that you can deactivate from the forwarding report if that shit is toxic. #privacy #email #ifyoumust

The more censorious the "free" providers like Google, Apple, etc become the more censorship resistant tech will appear. It took crackers what, a week to crack the DVD DRM? Water can never be permanently trapped. Neither can human communication.

#Noster #newb question. If I see a note on Bob's Relay, and I reply to it and publish it to four other relays, do my followers on those other relays see only my reply? Do they see anything?

What are the top 5 relays you should read/write to?

Nostryfied is cool shit. Nice one npub1cmmswlckn82se7f2jeftl6ll4szlc6zzh8hrjyyfm9vm3t2afr7svqlr6f

Crazy hi-fives to all the #Nostr #devs who have done an insane amount of work in the last few months. So many clients! So many new things! So many bugs! (that's part of the fun!) #alby #damus #iris #snort #nipdevs #relays #blogs-holyshit

does badges.pages do anything? Created two and nothing shows up ...

#[0] Coracle looks great, and I'm trying to install it locally on an ubuntu 22 VM. Can't find the env.template file. Is it missing?

Given the writer's strike, I took my hand at getting ChatGPT-4 to churn out some derivative crap. My prompt was: "Write a 10 minute scene between three characters that combines the style of Arrested Development and The Americans. The characters names are Linus, Lucy, and Charli Brown. Lucy wants to go watch a movie that Linus and Charli don't want to see, and she is trying to convince them to go with her sex appeal, but Lucy is socially awkward and it doesn't go well." I typo'd "Charli" and decided to keep it since who doesn't like Charli XCX? #ai #chatgpt #shitscript INT. BROWN'S LIVING ROOM - DAY The room is filled with Cold War memorabilia. LINUS, a man with a strong resemblance to Jason Bateman's character in Arrested Development, is reading a book about the KGB. CHARLI BROWN, a spy-turned-housewife with a dry sense of humor, is cleaning an old spy camera. LUCY, socially awkward but determined, enters wearing an overly glamorous outfit, clearly aiming for a seductive look. LUCY: (trying to sound sexy) Hi, boys. (She awkwardly trips over the carpet but recovers) LINUS and CHARLI barely glance up. CHARLI: (deadpan) Why are you dressed like a Bond girl? LUCY: (defensive) I just wanted to...look nice. For the movies. LINUS: (disinterested) We said we’re not interested in the new rom-com, Lucy. Lucy sits down between them, crosses her legs in what she thinks is a sultry way, and smiles at Linus. LUCY: (suggestive) Maybe I can... change your mind? Linus looks at her, then starts laughing. Lucy looks hurt. LINUS: (trying to suppress laughter) Are you...trying to seduce me into seeing a chick flick? Lucy turns to Charli, who raises an eyebrow. CHARLI: (teasing) Didn't realize watching a rom-com required so much... preparation. Lucy, flustered, knocks over a spy camera Charli was cleaning. Charli catches it before it falls. CHARLI: (dry) Careful. That camera's seen more action than a Bond girl. LUCY: (frustrated) It's not just any chick flick, guys! It's a masterpiece! Full of emotion, romance, love, betrayal... LINUS: (sarcastic) All the good stuff we desperately crave. LUCY: (pleading) Plus, it's in IMAX! Charli and Linus exchange a glance. CHARLI: (muttering to Linus) Maybe we can go, you know... for a laugh. Linus raises his eyebrows, considering. LINUS: (grudging) Okay. Fine. But we're smuggling in our own popcorn. I'm not paying for overpriced cardboard. Lucy beams, already triumphant. LUCY: (smiling) Great! I’ll just go change. She stands up, trips over her high heels again, but somehow manages not to fall. CHARLI: (dry) You might want to consider changing those shoes, too. Lucy exits the room, leaving Charli and Linus in quiet. LINUS: (sighing) What are we getting ourselves into? CHARLI: (smirking) A masterpiece, Linus. Full of emotion, romance, love, betrayal... They both chuckle as the scene ends, preparing themselves for an evening of cinematic torment. I asked for 10 minutes, it gave me ... maybe 2.

With the #WGA writer's strike (which I support) going on, we can expect a brand new renaissance in shitty unscripted programming. My pitch for Quality Content is we just get a crew, a couple cameras, find a #TikTok influencer, and just shoot them while they make posts. We just shoot them while they shoot themselveses. If we include weed for the crew in the budget, it can't fail.

Hey #nostrnerds what is the best #relay project to run side by side on an ubuntu 22LTS VM running one of the web clients? I will tunnel the relay through Tailscale (or maybe cloudflared if I can figure that one out), but it will also be available to the web host via localhost.

My job is one of those where I kind of wait for stuff to break so I can fix it. To keep my brain from atrophying, I invent dumb little projects for myself like "build a seedbox" or "move to a different seedbox for No Apparent Reason." Today's dumb project is to build one of the #nostr web client projects in a WSL2 container, then I can use my private relay through tailscale in a web client. Will report back on my failure or sucess.

Having the ability to #NIP verify in a #DNS TXT record would eliminate to host the nostr.json file and simplify it.

Hello, friend.

The effing hell is up with my neighbors?? This is 4am and that shit blasts through my window like the Kenny Rogers Roasters episode of Seinfeld, except this is a fucking COLOR OUT OF SPACE. https://void.cat/d/C1EYsojSe3CdfUEUXwMVGT

This is a masterful piece of Synthwave beauty. #synthwave #electronic

I can't get any of the android clients to connect to my relay through #tailscale, even though I can connect to it in a web browser from my phone. Connecting via a desktop client works fine.
