You don't use the Email, you send emails. You use the Nostr to post notes.

Brilliant. I love it and already adopted it. People who don't like it probably should stop referring to "the" Internet too.

Ugh, you get one high LDL-C result on a lipid panel and the pharmaceutical industrial complex wants to pump you full of statins.

Can’t build above 49th because swamp? One million square miles is forest, that’s 4x the size of Texas.

England is 50,000 square miles and has 25% more people than Canada. 4% of the land in England is developed. That’s equates to 2,000 square miles. Canada is 3,850,000 square miles.

Douglas Lake Ranch alone is bigger than Greater London!

Postr

People keep telling me to call my Nostr posts "notes".

Yes, it is "notes and other stuff transmitted by relay". But my note is a post. I posted it. I have used the term "post" for two decades. I posted it.

This is Nostr. We don't have rules. I'll call them what I want. I called it a post. Fight me.

I continue to call posts on "X" tweets as well. I tweet them. My father called tissues "Kleenex" down to his end days and I plan to do the same for this unless or until it just naturally feels right to do otherwise. Every time someone tells me to change my terminology, I just channel my late father and say, "no". I called it what I called it.

I tweet on X and I post on Nostr.

No. A relay alone will not help. We need the tools to be legal in all jurisdictions and yes we are rebels and all but we risk sending content makers to jail in some horrible places without those tools.

We need unlockable via zap content tools and other stuff too.

I wish a relay alone would help.

noticing a few people are taking a few weeks to get over a cold, anyone else notice this with their friends or family?

Germany has one of the highest levels of Bitcoin adoption in the world. Usually in the #1 or #2 spot for number of nodes. Why? Do they remember the hyperinflation from a century ago?

Yet German politicians are overwhelmingly against it. Why? Liberal ESG concerns?

Whew, been away for 10 days on a holiday.

What did I miss?

Apparently all you support is pedos. Bear in mind your arguments so far have been that you don't think censoring illegal content is a good thing and then that you think pedos should just be allowed access to child sexual assault material. To me it sounds like you're just trying to protect your own sick interests at this point.

And to be clear, people don't have to subscribe to free speech absolutism to be free. We choose to live in societies and we agree to abide by common rules. In the same way you can't bash someone head in with a brick without repercussions, there are some things you can't spread without repercussions.

The problem is that you free speech absolutist types take a broad concept of being able to say something out loud then you try to apply that to publishing and data transmission, things it was never designed to apply to, and you apply it to any company rather than just the government which is what free speech laws apply to.

I'll make it clear. Free speech does not include the right to distribute child sexual assault material. If you think it does then you are a pedo and should hand yourself and your computer into the authorities.

Holy shit, your level of pedo apologism is way higher than I thought.

In some cases they are. Snort I believe is deployed operated by the developer for example.

It's not hard to find but node operators do try to keep the worst stuff harder to access and there's plenty of cooperation with authorities.

It would be hilarious. I actually think it's a good thing when people who help distribute child sexual assault material are charged. Even better if they get full custodial sentences. So if you operate a relay that doesn't remove that or you run a website where relays that provide that content can be used, then you should be jailed. Preferably with a massive angry guy on a triple life sentence.

Nostr isn't Tor. And even then Tor nodes can and do make it difficult to access some illegal services.

But it'll be funny watching the devs trying to claim "it's just a protocol, we can't be responsible for what's on it" when the services they operate are being used to distribute child sexual assault material.

Happy Sunday everyone
