Coven sounds like oven, and that just doesn't work.

This is a worry that has been in the back of my head since I made my first seed phrase.

Do the poplular devices, e.g., Blockstream Jade, Coldcard, etc., have this functionality?

Are there resources for rolling on a random table, or something?

Thanks!

# Why We Love Nostr and Will It Stay That Way?

---

## Is the main reason we prefer Nostr to X that the community is small and like-minded?

* Nostriches have access to Devs and even get engagement from big users like Jack and Snowden

* We seem to value freedom, speech, and at least maintaining a relatively positive environment

* Bitcoiners are the majority and enjoy not being on the fringe

## What happens when Nostr scales; when the floodgates open to the masses? Will the elements we cherish disappear?

* Are zaps and the absence of feed algorithms enough?

* Can specialized relays solve this problem?

Is this a rare case of justice served, or is there something more to it?

Maybe, he's a fall guy for all the money laundering?

Is this guilt by association for Bitcoin in order to open the door for more regulation?

This is your claim. Seems like you would want to have an argument and evidence?

This is feeling a bit like a twitter-level discussion, so I'm going to leave it at that.

Centralized power, religious or not, seems to be the culprit. They are both capable of mass scale atrocities.

At least religion is a push back against totalitarianism.

"Men without chests."

"On the "new" Freudian psychology of materialism sweeping through the intellectual world. It was a tendency to debunk, or dismantle, myth and belief, and reduce everything to just it's material components, atoms colliding, and subjectivism."

"We continue to clamor for those very qualities we render impossible. You can hardly open a periodical without coming across the statement that our civilization needs more drive, or dynamism, or self-sacrifice, or creativity. In a sort of ghastly simplicity, we remove the organ and demand the function. We make men without chests and expect of them virtue and enterprise. We laugh at honor and are shocked to find traitors in our midst. We castrate and bid the geldings be fruitful."

- C.S Lewis

Feeling obligated to clean your house before company comes over and trashes it with no regard is a special level of self-imposed hell.

His webstore has a package where you can play Doom with him.

In case you're looking for Christmas gift ideas 😅

What do you think the difference is?

Are we just people who've left Twitter because we didn't like the negativity, and we collectively decided to do better?

Is it the bond of shared interests and values?

Does the barrier to entry keep the rabble out?

Or, maybe we haven't gotten mainstream enough to warrant disruption by the feds?
