Blue Merle (by SR labs) is a plugin for the 750 that wipes logs and - importantly - can change the device IMEI when you do your (regular) sim swap
graphene OS in airplane mode (always)
for mobile data, mudi 750 with Blue Merle and disposible sim
fuck phone numbers, they are literally 24/7 gps tracking identifiers
How is it private if it requires a GSM (GPS) identifier? (aka mobile number)

muito bom
What's lazy and pointless about being agnostic?
Nostr is the way
Phone Numbers suck, for many reasons
It would be far better to do this on nostr as there would be no phone number requirement
Ever wanted a potato as a #phone?
Let's rephrase that. I want a phone that belongs to me, and not to Google or Apple. So I'm daily driving the #PinephonePro with #MobileLinux (to be exact: #PostmarketOS with #SXMO).
It's been a rollercoaster ride I wouldn't want to miss. Here's the long read: https://zerwuerfnis.org/daily-driving-the-pinephone-pro
(And thank you to all the great people behind nostr:npub12nq6pf229ym68pnh9upff4mznmmeqru9m63w05juxhsqaukhs7rss4a3hq for their great work so far! Keep it up! And not just so my #potato becomes less taxing to use π )

tried to buy a pinephone once but they refused to ship it
because I didn't have a phone number.
crazy world.
π’ nsecBunker 0.10.0 is out!
Codename: nostr, an oauth-like protocol
This is a significant release that provides the ability to run OAuth-like bunkers which will allow registration in your bunker to new accounts.
It also integrates with LNBits + Nostrdress to provide the ability for new nostr users to be able to immediately receive zaps π€―
β LNBits
β Nostdress for zap receives π (thanks nostr:npub1nxa4tywfz9nqp7z9zp7nr7d4nchhclsf58lcqt5y782rmf2hefjquaa6q8)
β NIP-89 announcement on each nsecbunker boot
* Tons of bugfixes
Next up will be connecting the new user's wallet to automatically negotiate Nostr Wallet Connect; clients will be immediately able to *send* zaps. No fidgeting with copying around connection strings or scanning QR codes, client and nsecbunker negotiate in the background.
Under the hood, this is using the flow described here https://github.com/kind-0/nsecbunkerd/blob/master/OAUTH-LIKE-FLOW.md
Niiiice, thankyou!
When it works, it's a dream. Just approve the kinds in the dashboard, set & forget.
Problems can arise if you don't approve in time (signing requests disappear or time out)
Merry Christmas, ord disrespectoors! I have a gift just for you!
This will rid your node of inscriptions. You can run it, or not. It's your computer, you can run whatever software you want on it.
Relay filtering doesn't work. This has teeth.
https://github.com/rot13maxi/bitcoin-purifier
if you dont think inscriptions are valid tx, reject blocks that include them. If the economic majority of nodes does that, the miners will choose to build on a chain tip that doesnt have inscriptions, or they sell into a smaller market
this is what it all comes down to. this is the essence of bitcoin consensus.
Fair play
Agreed, which is why we've gone ahead and implemented it (nsecbunker), but the source code for it (the admin interface) is not available, unless am mistaken?
Would love to see a UX akin to a lightning payment, where (by clicking a link) my preferred signing app (wallet) will open automatically, then broadcast a signed message on approval
I think this leaves us with 2 options.
Either A) We educate new users about the basics of Nostr, to get them aqcuatented with key managment and how things will work.
B) We abstract away as much as we can initially so users just think they are using a normal web app until they leter realize what makes Nostr different.
I think that route B is easier for board adoption, but, it will be very important to build things in such a way so users can
"Opt-out" of custodial key managment solutions once they have spent the time to get a better understanding of how nostr works. What nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft has been working on will help onboarding immensely imo.
How to handle key management on mobile, other than:
- nsecbunker (buggy)
- installing a new browser and an extension (ux black hole)
Genuinely curious what the options are
