Such a huge collection of videos. You think he hosts it on a truenas? π

Nah man, it's gotta be some homegrown golang thing, cause it's the superior language and you can really pour your whole personality into it π€
https://pics.mleku.dev is my one and only VPS, it has like 50gb of storage or something.
why would i waste my time and money spamming a mostly decent but rude peer nostr dev with something as disgusting as gay porn when i'm barely managing to stack any sats at all, paid nearly 1k euros in may to get my cat's health sorted out in may. plus i'm an old fart, the kind of jerks who do this shit have testosterone for brains.
you have attempted to interfere with my client relationships already, and it would not even be slightly surprising that you tried again
the targets match up exactly as well, along with a lot more. nostr:npub1l5sga6xg72phsz5422ykujprejwud075ggrr3z2hwyrfgr7eylqstegx9z can comment if necessary
who said you did this from a VPS, by the way?
nostr:npub1fjqqy4a93z5zsjwsfxqhc2764kvykfdyttvldkkkdera8dr78vhsmmleku is someone angry enough at you, to do it, but it seems uncharacteristically passive-aggressive. And why try to scare off users of the protocol you're building on, and trash your own reputation?
Could also be nostr:npub12262qa4uhw7u8gdwlgmntqtv7aye8vdcmvszkqwgs0zchel6mz7s6cgrkj spamming himself, but that would be quite retarded and he's not retarded.
Could be a third actor, wanting to watch the two of them fight and create some drama, cuz there's nothing on the telly.
I don't know. π€ I'm reserving judgement, for now. Whoever is doing it, at least pick some higher-quality material, next time. South Park videos, or something.
At the moment, I'm mostly just gobsmacked at how lazy some of the big relay devs are, as there's now other spam popping up, with the exact same youtube video over and over and over, always from the same npub, and they just let it happen. The same exact content being posted as replies to a gazillion other notes is obvious spam.
People can and will take the risk if they think they wonβt be found out.
DMs for more details
Ah, I see. Hmmm. That's a shame.
if you have events signed by me that prove it was done by someone who controls my nsec i would like to see it, and you would not have anyone questioning what you are saying.
and i'd have to make a new one because obviously i lost control of it.
No, he doesn't. But he has some data that would require lots of coincidence.
This isn't about the bots, it's about the sarcastic "use nostr.land" stuff.
There's three different things, that don't appear to be coming from the same person, but it's turning into a pile-on:
- scrambled text bot
- porn video bot
- manual, snarky messages from anon, trolling Semi.
Bots are just bots, and it really is gay pride month and half of mostr is π³οΈβπ , so who knows. Scrambled text bot is the standard Nostr trolling, that shows up on the regular.
Making sarcastic comments about someone who just totally pissed you off, is actually something I can more easily suspect you of doing. Especially, as I know you are capable of building much more advanced bots, so why make such retarded ones, that even primal devs can fish out, if you give them a month or two? That's devvying like a 14 year-old.
i used to get asked by people when i was in prison if i could hack things for them but i have zero experience doing it and even less motivation to engage in such behaviour. when you consider that an inordinate amount of effort that i have made to make my relay resistant to spam do you really think it's reasonable that i would do this stuff to prove some pathetic teenager point about how other people should care about preventing spam?
i'm a little bit miffed that knowing me as well as you do, not like i hold anything back in the public view, don't use DMs, because i had a very rough experience trying to use them as a relay CLI, that i'm going to send anyone messages?
you can just trawl the whole relay network for my DM messages and you will probably not find more than about 100 in total, most of them dated over a year ago. and you know i don't use nostr DMs, why do you think i have simplex, telegram and element addresses in my kind 0?
just think about it in the context of what you know about me. i wouldn't even have a clue based on the fact that i muted half of the main nostr devs accounts i wouldn't know diddly squat about them at all, but i can for sure say that at least one of the primal rockstars has the kind of character that might engage in such vindictive attacks on semisol, whose service is a pillar of the nostr network. the rest of them, are too busy preening and have displayed no obvious signs of the kind of personality that considers this kind of bullshit to be any kind of valid response to anything.
I'm inclined to disbelieve it, but I'm too old and jaded to make a surprised face, anymore. If someone is impersonating you, they're doing a very convincing job of it and lining up receipts, so watch your back and stop pissing people off for no good reason, cuz it makes you an easy target.
I know who you are referring to, from Primal, and that does seem like a likely candidate, but would depend upon more factors. There are two others, I suspect, as well. Who knows.
At any rate, y'all need to stop squabbling. All it does is get nostr.land more free marketing cuz of le drama, and people are supposed to be buying theforest, not land, ffs. π Anyway, whatevers, I got news to announce.
they will buy both and you will be happy
i didn't start this, someone else started it.
i don't have any issues with semisol, at most i just think that he's got a terrible way of relating to people. that's not exactly a rational motivation to engage in espionage style counterintelligence attacks on him, and neither is my complaint that nostr client devs and the nip guardians have weird ideas about privacy and identity security on nostr a plausible motivation for engaging in egregiously malicious behaviour.
i'm disappointed, is all, that you all are so easily made credulous about absurd and inconsistent claims about my character, or that semisol can't recognise a psychological warfare attack on him.
it really doesn't bother me. for the most part, kind 1 nostr is mostly dead to me, except as a way for me to chat shit and journal and occasionally help people understand something. i'm well aware of how much narcissistic psychological bullcrap goes on and for which reason i have quite a big mute list and small follow list. i couldn't stand to watch relay feeds like you do, the amount of stupid, cultish behaviour and just plain puerile humor, not to mention doomer bullshit, that fills relays databases does not amuse me, and i have no ambition to impress anyone. i measure myself against my past performance only.
also i'm not mad at semisol.
he annoys me with his autistic, impersonal way of communicating, but when he started goose reacting i was like, whatever. can't even write two words to justify his slur. he doesn't want to educate me it's just some childish internal dialog going on.
this accusation thing against me is ridiculous also.
if someone has compromised my nsec and are using it, i'd like to have that be a public thing because i have not seen any evidence to support this hypothesis.
the whole point of nostr signatures is exactly about the improbabliity of the content of the event being not authored by the person who controls the nsec of the npub.
These are being sent from a different npub, so that's an irrelevant point.
People spin up npubs to post something snarky, every day. I get that all the time. It's why we don't let anons post replies on theforest.
If it's you, stop. The joke is worn thin. If it isn't you, then you have nothing to stop.
I would like for everyone to get along, please.
Who knows?
Sometimes you hear an accusation and are like, "No way that's true. I know him, he'd never do that."
And other times it's, "Eh, maybe, maybe not. I could see it."
This is a case of the latter, so I am obligated to shitpost. It could also be possible that Veritas has made a comeback and is spamming us with his prolific library of depraved gay porn. Or some savvy mastodon or bluesky user thought it'd be fun to "get back at those Nostr Nazis" for pride month.
veritas has repeatedly put disgusting images and gifs into replies to me a long time ago but he obviously got tired of it. i don't see him as someone who would be spamming nostr in general, or impersonating people, he's quite happy to be up front about what a ridiculous nazi turd he is. he is also a nostr dev as well so i don't think he's got the character that would do this sort of shit.
idk who it is or what their motivations are but number one they are not fans of nostr. i doubt that anyone with a public profile would do this kind of shit.
i don't like a lot of the more well known nostr devs but none of them have a reason to do this shit, and i'm perfectly happy to roast them about their superstitions about privacy and the retarded encryption scheme they all came up with, paying some retarded "security consultant" to give them some kind of check of approval for it.
seriously though, with the volume of text i post do you think i would have time to work a fiatmine shitcoin job, write all that shit, and handle media that i would prefer i never saw an example of in my life ever? not only that, i have an uncommon perspective on homos because i have had a lot of interaction with homos in my life, and i doubt homos would do this shit either.
the spam attack smells like glowie shit to me. and semisol's work with hardware signers would be a red flag to a bull for this kind of people. you'd have to be trying to shut down nostr altogether to do this kind of pissing in the pool. not spending most of your spare time building for it.
it just reflects on his autistic and immature attitude that he can't even think through the social context or psychological motivations to come up with the idea that nostr's most famous war and peace sized post writer would even have the time, let alone the motivation to drive people away from nostr.
