Damus should have an “only NSFW” filter, so I can catch up with what I missed, after I leave the office.

I’m afraid the only things I know about claddagh rings are what I just read on Wikipedia. 🫤

Are nostr:npub1t0sskc4vuqwn0tmgnc3zfmzczme2ayezkxnlzxv8sj7tswpgr8ms7p0ujz and nostr:npub15czurxhxxcwydr6cvq6p7lf0qxhsmdqt20kp4sudh5d52aux6ryql4nama older than me, or did they just work on older code? My first job was developing in C++ for AT&T’s network management group.

I think social media get too much blame, but are those benefits you mentioned due to social media, or due to the Internet?

Stoppard could have written an original play to explore the same ideas.

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead is an example of pre-Star Wars expanded universe fiction, where authors extract minor characters from beloved works and write a story that no one asked for. 😒

I’ve sometimes thought that wedding rings have the wrong polarity. There should be a ring (or some other marker) for “I’m open to dating, although I won’t necessarily say yes.” Something that a woman can remove when she gets married, or when she just doesn’t feel like being courted.

This is often true, but there are exceptions. Last year I followed nostr:npub1tuqwrnzqmu90u45dm29qqfs6xslyg7gs0d5mqsymym9jqwjrupeq2jy8s9 , who seems nice if a little too into politics. Unfortunately whenever I replied to her, she never responded. I think her Mastodon server is forwarding her posts to Nostr, but not Nostr notes to her. (Or she’s ignoring me. 😕) It’s a one-way conversation now.

Mostr is a bridge between Mastodon servers and Nostr. A Mastodon server generates Nostr secret keys for its users from the users’ Mastodon names and a secret key specific to the server. The Mastodon users don’t even know their own nsecs. Posts to the Mastodon server are forwarded to Nostr relays (the server administrator’s choice, I believe), and Nostr users’ notes are (sometimes) forwarded to the Mastodon server’s users.

He’s a Mastodon user. He doesn’t know what a relay is.

“For decades, Washington has spent money it didn't have on entitlement programs that benefit the relatively old and rich. They have picked up the pace of spending in recent years, encouraged by economists and pundits who claimed that interest rates would always stay low and that the insatiable appetite for U.S. government debt would not end anytime soon.”

Yes, exactly. The scp command is still there, and there’s no warning when I use it on BSD.

Huh? The OpenSSH project hasn’t deprecated the scp *command*; they’ve merely retired the scp *protocol*. Why are Linux distros getting rid of the command?

Some of this seems reasonable, if a bit formal.

Oh, okay. I thought it might have been a gray cat.

Is that me?

Sounds like he’s chasing trends.

Windows is now so large and complicated that Microsoft can’t change it without breaking something.
