tor is slow because therse no anti-spam (actually they added a sort of proof of work client side, but it is not so effective), theres no incentive to run nodes that are the facto moslty feds and volountary. If you add micropayments as spam filter and as economic incentive for people to run relays, you can have a tor network that scales.
Also its trivial to implement in a way that provide reliable anonimity, it just need to reimplement onion routing, all problems in theory are solved.
tor is slow, doesnt scale and its not flexible. A native nostr discoverablity layer (and anonimity layer) could be used in many ways.
One of them is a better tor with lightning/ecash micropayment to actually scale the service
time to implement onoin routings microfees based on it and give drugmarkets an home
can confirm with experience, after being exposed to p2p little farmers markets for a great part of my life I then lived in a big city far from home and started to consume the "same products" but buying them from the great distribution. The difference is like night and day for most of the products, meat and olive oil in particular (even if I think "italian great distribution" is better then "great distribution in most other countries" because for some products it works just as "market aggregator" and still the products available come from little productions).
low iq people: strongly agree

absolutely, human in recent years has find a way to develop these pseudo-food engeneerized to be cheap, sterile, porn-like-tasty and to trick people to eat more without satisfying completely the hunger.
If you avoid completely that junk and eat only things that existed 100 years ago, you cant have a really bad diet today (most "bad diet" of people 100 years ago was about lack of food, not abundance).

I would expet Italy as a high carb diet, but we do well here. I think is the mediterrainean diet, a lot of vegetables, fruit all around and good meat and milk derivates.
yeah, I also would prefer a simpler "more focused" UI... It seems it try to be a super app like wechat
agree, the only easy win would have been with Biden because no one can like Biden
Objectively a infinitely more powerful narrative than the "this old man cant even remeber his name cant be president lets make it president for next 4 years".
I have a young friend interested in economic topics and in game-cards/videogames (more like a "normie", not like a "nerd" of these stuffs...).
I tried in the last years to talk with him about bitcoin, try to hook his curiosity in discussions hoping that at some point he would have been, at least, interested and would have researched a bit the topic.
But nothing, in 2021 he buyed a shitcoin that wasnt even in top 100 marketcrap without study bitcoin (loosing his money clearly), today he is all about stock market, obligations and "bitcoin is too risky... Maybe better than penny stocks but to risky...".
He still today havent done any proof of work in study bitcoin. I wondered why and what was the problem.
Yeaterday I discovered another aspect of him.
I said something like "I love piracy, I'd support a guy that gives me soccer streamings for a little fraction of the cost that the platforms owning the digital rights would make me pay....";
His response: "You cant be so stupid, in this way you dont support soccer teams, soccer is dying, piracy bad".
Now I know whats the problem here.
The first and most important move you need to do to be able to understand #bitcoin and #nostr is to reclaim your self sovreignity, free yourself from statists propaganda and become a free human.
If you dont want to be free thats no problem, I cant and dont want impose you freedom;
You are free to be slave, but dont expect my respect.
If you think, act and live as statist you are an enemy of human freedom and thats a bad conduct in my opinion.
Hope my friend and all statists will see the light.
attention please, if the receiver of dms dont have a client compatible it will result in broadcasting plain-text the content of your private messages without telling you of the errors. Thats ridicoulous and dangerous.
"bitcoin that stop working for any reason" would be the greatest humbling pill after the "bitcoin actually works" pill
they simply like you so much
I pipe data into a python utility to generate/read animated qrcode (bc-ur, specter format... hopefullybin future bbqr) and sign tx directly with the nostr:nprofile1qqs09jtvjlmyrxjn37zv70a89csegcz7rpyqjmnw29cveedhv7vagqqpzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wd68ytnzv9hxgtc64y2dk
The utility: https://github.com/pythcoiner/SeedQReader
If you need to use usb connections you need to get your hands dirty with HWI https://github.com/bitcoin-core/HWI
I hate monero because its a not-obvious scam that can distract a lot of not-totally-retarded inexpert newbies from bitcoin and from their freedom.
