You've got me on the ok computer.

Me too. A little king with some power and some responsibility is better than hidden oligarchies pulling the strings.

You're welcome sir.

I relate 100% with number 2.

I do Brave. I don't think Chromium has built-in tracker and ad blocker.

The amount of bullshit Apple's platform developers have to put up with is unbelievable.

I think it's better to buy a #Framework for your hacking? The fact that it's possible doesn't mean it will worth your time, #hacking #chromebooks is inconsistent and there's not enough documents out there.

Monarquia. Poder concentrado mas a responsabilidade também.

E você?

with Frida Kahlo, yes.

I'd like my #macbook dongle had a reset button. It keeps turning off when I switch monitors.

Since I started programming I've been writing small web apps to people in my spare time. Usually members of my family or church. Just to see my apps being consistently ignored by (what I planned to be) its users.

It feels like I have both the urge for doing something that positively impacts the lives of people around me and do that with something I enjoy working with, so it would be a win-win.

Maybe the problem is that I've been projecting my needs of delivering value into other people, instead of concentrating in the feature/bugfixing work of my day-to-day job, which also delivers value to people, just no the ones I know.

And if I'm being honest. Maybe people don't need more apps, services, or #software. I don't feel like I do, why would they feel any different? Just a bit frustrating to realize I can't deliver as much value as a postman, a baker, or a locksmith.

Oh boy, was it what you meant when you said you were doing noodles?

Oh, yes you're right. I couldn't think of any elegant solution to the failure during onboarding that you mentioned. And the "read from who I follow" is much more a client feature than protocol level thing.

Thanks for taking the time to answer

I remember when I first opened Tor years ago wanting to checkout what was all the fuzz about the "deep web", and I opened that deepweb wikipedia (I'm not an initiated, I don't remember its name) and read an article about how we were living in the #Matrix and the corporations were the machines we would need to fight against. For some time, that just sounded as #Marxist propaganda to me.

However, I eventually started perceiving that every large institution develops its own mechanism of self-protection that becomes embodied by the people who work there. Reaching a point where they might sacrifice their own lives as an offering for it. Reaching a point where they might sacrifice *others'* lives as an offering for it.

The existence of institutions is not the problem. They are mostly created by well-intentioned people, but there's a bad seed that the founder might (and often will) plant there: "it needs to grow". That in itself might be responsible for governments, corporations, and even churches to become the human-fed machines we struggle against.

Just watched Jonathan Morrison's update on his health. It's good to see the improvements, but God, I feel sorry for him. I hope he finds a cure to whatever that is.

I don't see a point in having a list of #nostr #relays to read from. I'd like to read from the relays where the people I follow writes to.

What am I missing? #asknostr

bread + butter + honey ❤

#foodstr

And I always found "the pursuit of happiness" kind of lame. #Purpose beats happiness every day of the week.

I'd like all americans to take the reality check (#redpill, if you will) written by the #Moldbug. His take on the current state of american politics is really good: https://graymirror.substack.com/p/heroin-liberals-and-cocaine-conservatives

I understand the business perspective of requiring an 8-hour workday by default. However, anyone who has worked in non-manual labor knows it's much more about what you deliver than how many hours you've spent at the office...

sem a menor ideia do que fazer.
