If any of you are in New York at the end of next month, I'll be celebrating my 40th bday at nostr:npub1key55ax33gkl50uqemvl4khrtqrhzm7wzpc7fhseutt5ddkcwcrqgxlt3h! Saturday March 29th. Hit the link if you can make it and tag anyone that is in the area or might be down for an NYC getaway!
I might !
Drooling over the current BTC price, are we? 😏
Lmao I Forgot about that , I’d probably do it too unless he states that it would get him in serious trouble , that’s when I won’t
One of the main reason some of us are here is the ability to reward the content we like , because sometimes you wanna do that in other platforms and you can’t
The most primitive way he could use right now until that’s implemented is to Type it out in the post to not be zapped , and return any accidental zaps I guess

Taking it for a whirl before I buy premium
Moving from which client ?
Or set up an army of dragonflies , lady bugs and frogs
All roads lead back to it 🤍
De-evolution towards becoming 🐒 🐒 , The inverse Darwin theorem
Lmao , I missed . Thought you were talking about the files
Just walking out the door to do old man gym things And what did I discover on my porch?
Only the highest quality soap with the bestest scent known to humankind seriously when do we get scratch and sniff one here
Customer service was outstanding. Speedy shipping tracking everything was great. Thank you so much. Buy soap from nostr:nprofile1qqsppdnxpjc82jlm3yn9gawhv7p4nm69a3f80rg5ycw305xned2s0hcpzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgtcpzdmhxue69uhhqatjwpkx2urpvuhx2ue0qy88wumn8ghj7mn0wvhxcmmv9uy85q3f You will be freshly scented clean and all the good things that come with supporting a small business 🙏🏻
This looks amazing !
In light of the recent plane crashes Musk is pushing to Doge-cancel Verizon FAA contract and replace it with Starlink
Other than the blatant conflict of interest here , If Starlink is gonna be imposed on us and start being this embedded in critical infrastructure and geopolitical affaire it cannot continues to be governed by one person with 0 oversight and transparency like it is right now
Reason why I mentioned that Nuclear Fusion is a high vibrational source of energy: , is because it mimics the Sun’s energy, creates instead of destroys, and produces clean, abundant power without harmful waste. It aligns with cosmic harmony and sustainability
Nuclear fission ( which is the most commonly used ) is imo lower vibrational, as it splits atoms, produces radioactive waste, it’s energy allign more with fragmentation and decay destruction instead of unity and creation.
A lot people are born or are becoming Highly sensitive and overwhelmed with EMF electricity etc which prompts them to take radical moves like abondoning society and living in the woods to not being exposed to such energy . My personal theory from experience is that it’s not we are allergic to tech advancement I think we are allergic to the low vibrational nature of most of our energy sources , being highly sensitive and not some extremist regarding renewable energies . I still feel a stark differences in places where some type of renewable energy is used . IMO that’s also one of the reason why I’m probably gonna be rejecting transhumanism , trans humanist tech which is about to be imposed on us soon , feels yucky and evil because it probably clashs with our natural energy . Transhumanism will only start being harmonious with us when we manage to find the closest high vibrational source of energy . A few of those energy sources could be zero point energy , quantum vaccum energy even tesla scalar energy ( all 3 still a long way to develop ) . the closest thing already developed is Nuclear fusion
Happy Nostrversary 💜💜🫂 🎉🎊
GM.
My baseline assumption is that there are more than zero malicious actors in Nostr right now. (Where "malicious" means they seek to harm the protocol's use and adoption now or in the future).
To do any actual damage - beyond "privacy" "violations" like massive data harvesting from public relays - one thing such an actor could do would be to acquire nsecs.
The longer he sits on nsecs without revealing intent, and the more important the network becomes, the greater the damage potential when the attack is eventually performed.
Under those assumptions, the only actually worrisome entities - that is, ones that **could** be malicious in an effective manner - are ones that **could** feasibly get your nsec.
This is a roundabout way of saying the thing everybody already says, but putting a finer, wider-existential-risk point on it: do not use clients that ask for your nsec.
The most paranoid takeaway from the above: the only possible bad actors are clients and apps that **require** your nsec. So if we eventually do have a malicious attack, it will **necessarily come out of the set of developers of nsec-requesting apps**.
Yes, this includes signers. I don't know what to do currently about this point aside from either: simply hope that that much smaller set of developers (of signers) are indeed trustworthy OR verify personally that their code is indeed safe OR trust the set of people who claim to have audited the code themselves.
This level of paranoia means that _safe_ advice to Nostr newcomers would look like this annoying path: "Take a look around using primal [or another similar app] but assume you'll need to make a new account before too long. When you decide to stay, read [this confusing-to-a-newcomer guide] about proper nsec management".

Maybe very newbie-friendly clients that do bunkers by default (or key-splitting, eventually) would be better.
Anyway, GM and here's to hoping someone isnt sitting on a massive pile of high-value nsecs that they intend to rug one day and demoralize the entire social side of the network (they can't hurt the open protocol, obviously. We'll just have to start over in a sort of social hard fork)
I think in the early days , that was the only option , everyone was sharing it . not sure how feasible this is , but I wish they had a key rotation mechanism so all the current accounts can fix that vulnerability instead of getting a new account
