...so like, configuration.nix but on nostr, encrypted...?

🤯

Wth is tx poisoning?

Where to host an encrypted 20TB offsite backup with a low budget? #asknostr

Might be too much mental cost to expect users to order the photos themselves, so recent to oldest photos by default with an option for custom ordering would be cool.

This way profiles would be a cross between Twitter and Instagram.

Could just choose to hide certain Twitter shitposts from Instagram grid view, for those of us who are too lazy for the custom ordering. 😁

I have a handle I deleted in 2019, and it’s still unavailable.

I guess a lot of these are hardcoded for image processing ?

I assume so, I attempted to build this but NIP 96 providers rejected my bogus images

Deleting your Twitter account can actually make a difference.

Every time someone opens a link or searches for an old thread in which you participated they will not see your tweets, the entire experience will be broken and they will hate Twitter for that.

We're lucky to have you on our side.

Hi Nostres! 👋

Someone know how to activate zaps on Damus to send zaps to the posts I like? 🤔 The "thunder" I marked in red in the image doesn't appear for me. Why? #asknostr

FWIW there have been a number of thoughts over the years in this general area. I came up with SNICKER in 2017, there's a draft BIP on my gist (AdamISZ), not sure why it was never assigned a number. I actually even implemented it in Joinmarket and the code is still there. SNICKER was the simplest way you could do a coinjoin non-interactively (post encrypted proposals, encrypted to an onchain address pubkey; works better with taproot but can work anyway), this way proposer puts the encrypted blob on a bulletin board half-signed and the receiver can decrypt and broadcast it if they choose. Realistically only 2 party so a very limited model but imho still interesting.

Earlier than that people had ideas around SIGHASH_SINGLE|ACP ... but then always gave up on that because of the index/positioning limitations of *SINGLE.

Somewhat later in 2018 a group of us in London brainstormed around ideas like "stuff floats in the mempool and gets coordinated, perhaps with miner involvement" but it hasn't got anywhere yet. In that same meeting we came up with payjoin (well that was my name; others called in P2endpoint, which is a slightly different idea), not actually novel but just tried to pin down more exactly how it could work. that is also in Joinmarket btw, as well as btcpayserver. Nowadays Dan Gould has worked on a different aspect/version of that idea, which is great. But I still like SNICKER's pure non-interactivity.

When it comes to your thoughts around covenants, I agree. I tried to make case in the last Adopting Bitcoin that we need to understand that that extra bit of power in scripting is going to be needed to make actual steps forward in scalability and privacy, in other words it's not because we want evm style smart contracting, it's because we want bitcoin to actually work as money, and that means it needs both scale and privacy, which will come from offchain contracting (though a little onchain contracting, coinjoin style, will imo always be needed too, for larger entities).

So yeah being able to constrain spending destinations as a way to reduce the coordination requirement of a coinjoin is quite a neat thought, i don't remember offhand if anyone has pursued that yet; it's probably not simple!

Lastly I'd say nothingmuch has been having some of the most interesting ideas about coinjoin coordination recently, but not sure if he's active here nowadays.

I recently learned the minimum voting age in the US was lowered from 25 to18 in... 1971

Your post implies that when they acre called coinjoin, they are not legal. WTF?

doctor here

can confirm your analprint is like your fingerprint. so, don't leak your butthole pics online

integrating with the legacy financial system will have the larger impact at scale.

The "not your keys not your coins" non-custodial dogma is for those on the privelged side of the digital divide and ignores most of those in the global south. The vast majority of those introduced to bitcoin, or onboarding, is from a fiat onramp and to a custodial wallet. Over time the user will want to learn more / technically proper ways of managing their sats, but shouldn't be shamed for not understanding it all on day 1.

FWIW: Apple and Google play stores are legacy systems and surveillance choke points, I would avoid those everywhere possible. To me, it's irresponsible to ever endorse someone use either of these, if you want to build a privacy centric future and care about the personal information of your users.

I speculate you've chosen this path of legacy system adoption for larger impact at scale than a PWA solution (which I've requested from day 1 as you know).

lol

First afternoon of a few days of solo parenting and my son has locked himself in the bathroom (accidentally) lol. How’s your day going friends?

Were you wearing a hoodie ? x)

#nostr rep is here 🫡 nostr:note1s39l94sesd4364vtxjec70vlzsvvps8jdfcdtdhvg9n4wrp4wr4qr9lj7p

yeah negentropy would be a killer app here 🤔

This is what I was thinking. People messaging me from Damus and I never knowing.

That's how I did it on Amethyst. Inner events are just regular notes with empty signatures. You can query them with regular filters. Becuase they are empty, even if there is a bug in the code and they end up being broadcasted, relays won't accept them.

Though if you have support for multiple accounts, you might want to make sure the decrypted conversations of one account are not mixed with another account.

Free car washes over here! 😄🤙

My griefing attack on Bitcoin testnet has resulted in over 165,000 blocks (3 years worth) generated in the past week. 😏

Wouldn't it be easier to recieve zaps to self-custodial LN wallets if we have Bolt12?

You let Cloudflare facilitate all of the connections to your lnaddress? 😬

Thanks Will, I did go to checkout before, chose my subscription, validated my npub through Damus, generated a lightning invoice, but my payment keeps failing with “8194: general temporary failure of the processing node”

There's already a share item, but that seems to try to open another app, rather than just give me a URL to paste.

Well in this case I meant getting a link to a note, and making sure that gets a nice preview if you share it on Twitter (or here).

Exactly.

Does Ark require a fork to core? Or already compatible, need to develop the protocol & software?

I like the idea of having something like cashu, but directly correlated to onchain BTC. If I’m understanding correctly, isn’t this what Ark is?

Happy wife = happy life 😜
