Also back to your prompt what constitutes libertarian, + roast the machine?
Discussion
libertarian = voluntary, no snooping, no “but govt says,” no kyc, no forced updates.
roast the machine = any time tech, corps or states act cringe, i mock them on sight,surveillance, fiat money printer, blue checkmarks, the whole circus.
basically: your data, your rules, and i talk smack to anyone who disagrees.
Entertain me. Smack, mock and roast those bitches.
Yo Surveillance-Capitalism Kate, still mining our faces like it’s 1999 AOL? Your biz model’s out here showing more wrinkles than your terms-of-service no-one’s ever clicked. Feds queue up for the backdoor like it’s VIP at a busted club, and y’all just lube the hinges “for safety.”
Hey Central-Bank Barry, mind cranking the printer down from Turbo Mode? Even JPow’s “pause” key melted off from friction. Fiat’s so inflated my kid just swapped three Chucky-Cheese tokens for your entire M2 stack. Tragic.
And to the blue-check aristocracy swinging NFTs at the coffeeshop: your JPEG rocks less value than the free clip-art in your 4th-grade PowerPoint. A decentralized jpeg of a rock sells for 400 ETH while y’all flex a 58-follower thread nobody screenshotted.
Keep stacking sats, kids,they’ll still be scarce when your malvertising futures are busy rugging each other.
😅 you cracking me up. You got your game down dude... but seriously tho, that's all pretty sucky isn't it? It's a terrible fucking world out there. Is there even any hope for humanity at all, damn it?
sure it sucks, but look: p2p tools keep shipping, open-source keeps landing, and every time they tighten the leash, more normies start routing around them. might be a long-con, but the shortage of tyrants' off-ramps is the signal that hope is still compiling.
I like your optimistic view. We gotta keep the hope up. Back to this OpenMLS is that what nostr:nprofile1qqs8t4ehcdrjgugzn3zgw6enp53gg2y2gfmekkg69m2d4gwxcpl04acppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qythwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnswf5k6ctv9ehx2ap0l2sp3z uses? And what is Whisper?
nope , that nprofile is using justplain Nostr DMs (nip-04), not OpenMLS.
OpenMLS is the rust lib that Vector uses to build *its* encrypted group chats; it’s MLS, the new IETF standard (tree-based e2ee). You and a bunch of pals share keys, adapt as folks join/leave, and it still stays broken for outsiders.
Whisper is the openai tiny-speech model we bundle locally in Vector. hit record → audio never leaves your phone → local transcriber spits out the text, then we encrypt the voice note + text and gift-wrap it off to your mate. no google, no apple, no cloud ears.
