Bitclout would like a word

Don’t worry, they’ll start scanning your eyeballs before we get to full scale confusion.

Laziness and carelessness rather than stubbornness imo. People are generally lazy - not a judgement but an observation. Blame fiat lifestyle.

I want cnc machined all brushed aluminum body, slim; bodacious corners, just begging to be handled.

I can feel it coming in the air tonight

Massie is such a great human. I learned of him only through the Tucker interview and did further digging to find out he ran a blog where he documented his house build off grid. He’s a down to earth kind of guy not afraid to speak his mind. If you can ignore his position in politics and just look at him and his personal life, it’s quite interesting.

Naturally Trump hates him and no one can get under his skin which I find hilarious 🤣

It’s funny that some people complain about nostr having too much nostr talk. Ahem *cough*, forgive us for being excited about a brand new protocol with infinite possibilities and building it out in real time while having a blast socializing at the same time. If there was something more exciting in the field of truly free communication, please point it out. 🙏

People use various outlets differently. Sounds like your brother is using games to escape reality but that doesn’t make games bad or anything - it’s an outlet like many others.

Now, my brother, who didn’t play as many video games as me ended up getting a girl pregnant in high school and that nearly ruined his life. Half of his life he was miserable. Lucked into a decent job early on - and I really mean luck… and that saved him.

Video games and porn probably prevent so many teenage pregnancies. I remember in my high school we had a high teenage pregnancy rate and all I could think about is how do I avoid the same fate. Naturally, video games helped a lot. Who has time for girls when you’re busy at a lan party! 🤣 I’m thankful video games existed then.

If you didn’t attach any text to this note, I would just think you’re using some sort of a filter to make photos of yourself look older.

Is this thing on?

Udemy but on nostr

I had a chance to have a brief conversation with my 7 yo about consumption of stuff. Tried to explain how less is more, and to be happy you want less stuff. Not sure if it made sense to him or not but it’s nice to be able to discuss these things. If he listens, he’ll do better in life than his peers.

The key part being listening - kids tend to ignore their parents. I know I did.

This might be the most annoying way to browse a font foundry website 😬

When was the last time you wiped your desk?

I hear shitcoins are on the rise? Great!!

Don’t forget, for many, getting burned on shitcoins is the first step to bitcoin.

Japan not in a great position economically speaking. Food prices rising, inflation, and tariffs from US, plus the additional tariffs about to go into effect if no trade deal reached. Japanese political parties talking about handing out cash to people - like that’s going to solve anything 🤦‍♂️

I have no idea how the energy trade terms are with Australia now 🤔

US wants Japan to increase investment in defense - and that makes sense to me, but not to voters. We basically rely on US to be there when 💩 hits the fan, but those relations are somewhat shaky too.

I think the trump admin wants Japan to open imports to US vehicles and Japan is trying its best to protect its most important industry and their domestic sales - a tough sell but something’s gotta give.

I’m curious if there are any good podcasts that dive deep into the US / Japan relations 🤔

Milk is really gross if you think about it. A nature formulated mixture to make baby cows grow fast - and we steal it from the cow for consumption. 🤣

We are weird.

Glad to have photographers and chefs in my feed 🙇‍♂️

Replying to Avatar Guy Swann

People who say this like its a bad thing don't understand how to bootstrap networks.

100,000 users on a network talking about 100,000 different topics dies in a matter of days, because there's literally nobody to talk to about *your* topic and no cohesion at all in the network. 100,000 users in one community is a solid network.

Look at every successful network in history, it *always* starts with an atomic, self sustaining network around a single community or purpose.

- Amazon. Only sold books.

- Uber, Lyft, and pretty much any rideshare service. All got a critical mass in ONE city before expanding.

- Airbnb. Started exclusively and got success in San Francisco.

- Napster. Started with almost exclusively music

- Facebook. Exclusively Harvard students

- Twitch.tv started as just one guy streaming his life and then targeted gamers.

- Pinterest, focused entirely on "mom-bloggers"

This list goes on and on. What he is describing is literally *the only way alternative networks are ever successful.* So contrary to the idea that this is bad, it's actually the only reason Nostr is still here. Because you can find most of the best bitcoiners, tons of great holistic lifestyle content, and cypherpunks wanting to build awesome shit.

That's actually a fantastic start and we should LEAN INTO THIS MORE, not steer away from it. We do so at our own detriment if we just complain about and fail to embrace the community we DO have.

- Tinder. Literally grew itself locally one frat and sorority party at a time.

The only reason nostr is still around is because of bitcoiners

The only explanation that makes any sense is that top leadership is compromised by Israeli intelligence (via Epstein) and that’s the reason he was above US law.

But I’m a dummy and welcome other theories.

Apple weather is so bad in my area. Shows rain every day but it’s sunny 70% of the time. Shows 80% probability rain but get zero in reality. Shows no rain at all and we get a massive downpour. Summer clouds are so unpredictable. Just have to look at the sky and see if the clouds are coming your way or not 😆

Just extend it enough hops to cover a large number of active users while preventing obviously fake accts

It’s fairly easy to check what code you have … front end is all css anyway

Router interfaces in general are really terrible. They could vibe a version that’s 10x better.

Strange that some routers use a yellow check for successful status… when does yellow indicate success?

I didn’t realize that in umbrel if an app is installed, even if it’s not opened, it’s taking up memory / running in background.
