Haven’t had a drink in a week. Feel way too conscious.

Did you used (or still using) forums back in the days before the big social platforms were a thing? If so, which ones and what tech stack was used?

I was active on multiple phpBB forums (gaming, automotive tuning)

should I nuke the damus relay and start over? 🤔 some notes may be lost.

Always makes me sad 😔

I am getting close to giving a more detailed assessment on Israel/Hamas, as it drags on.

And it will probably be Nostr-only since other platforms can’t handle it. It is too polarized. Everyone is tunnel-visioned.

My husband is currently in Cairo dealing with some property work we are doing for our extended family. They are only 250 miles from the problem, and Egypt’s acute currency crisis brings it closer to home if military or refugee shit hits the fan. Most of my extended family is geopolitically or financially close to the Israel/Gaza issue and is Muslim. I am thus both close and far from the issue. And I grew up in the US in a diverse region with Jewish and Muslim peers, but more-so Jewish overall.

Suffice to say, I don’t want civilians on either side to suffer or die. I am pro-humanity first and foremost.

Before I give my eventual analysis, I am happy to see Nostr comments on the issue. What are your thoughts and questions on the topic? What would you like to see addressed from a diverse or as non-biased source as possible?

One useful way to think about nostr is as a social layer for the Internet protocol stack.

Big Tech companies had to build a proprietary social graph layer within their vertical since a social graph makes (almost) everything information-based better.

Nostr pushes out the social graph from the application layer and allows smaller applications to be built on top.

FEELS LIKE INSIDERS TRADING AN ETF ANNOUNCEMENT - STAY HUMBLE AND STACK SATS

Back in Egypt, no longer burnt out. It’s like magic how that works.

Unbothered. Moisturized. Happy. In my lane. Focused. Flourishing.
