En route to a gold mining ghost town. More to come.

Or a Canadian summer with mosquitoes…

Yep. Haven’t installed Simplex yet.

A human-recognizable name that can be communicated by analog means is the only way to bootstrap trust in the digital world.

That's why kind 0 metatada and nip-05 mapping are so important.

I know my primary passion here is fountain pens but it's hard to argue with such numbers.

There is a time and place for the ballpoint pen and apparently that time was the entirety of human history until it was invented.

Love the simplicity!

If you're not on #nostr, I don't have time to explain it to you on Twitter.

Morning hike along the creek

Once again, pretty chuffed I got #nostr #safebox to do zaps from funds that it is holding. The commandline looks like this

$safebox zap -c "this is a zap comment! "

With #nostr, every event can be monetized by default.

If you can demonstrate control across a domain name (DNS record), domain resource (website) and a kind 0 event with a corresponding nip05 using your npub, you’re pretty much invincible.

In the legacy world, I feel like everyone is fighting for their turf on otherwise-captured platforms that are inevitably co-opted by government.

I don't get that same feeling on #nostr.

Instead, it feels like entirely new territory to try new things without permission.

That's why I am here.

Wondering if anyone else feels the same way?

Kind 0 is pretty amazing. It's a global directory of self-signed metadata. If you trust the npub, you can trust the metadata.
