The true measure of a man is not his intelligence or how high he rises in this freak establishment. No, the true measure of a man is this: how quickly can he respond to the needs of others and how much of himself he can give.

Getting serious #NoMansSky vibes from #Haggerston station #TFL #London

Another slam-dunk piece of authoritarian, technologically illiterate legislation from our clueless/malicious (delete as appropriate) government that won’t be meaningfully resisted by Parliament nor any of the in-bred stenographers that constitute the UK political/media class. Yay. #bananakingdom

My web host has decided that I need a forced upgrade from my current hosting package to one that’s double the price - quadruple if I want a TLS/SSL certificate (which these days is a pretty basic requirement - I’ve no idea why it costs so much given letsencrypt.org exists).

So, time to move on. Looking for a UK based web host with impeccable green credentials, Wordpress and LetsEncrypt support, SSH access and domain hosting too. I don’t need gigabyte upon gigabyte of space as I rarely update the bloody thing, I can’t do without it though!

Decent customer service and migration assistance wouldn’t go amiss either… if anyone has any experience with such a company please let me know!

The bad news is the main UK opposition party, Labour, also love this creepy authoritarian shit

Sounds like #damusgate is coming to Android too…

Never clicked a link so fast in my life! Interesting to see the differences between #Primal and #Damus on #iOS. Definitely distinctive user experiences; good to see Primal’s idiosyncrasies survived the transition to a native app. Damus is much more polished which is to be expected but I’m sure development will push all concerned to excel. Excited for the future of #NOSTR! Now, where’s NOSTR’s #Instagram killer?

TIL why I constantly struggle to find and follow Simon Stålenhag since he moved from Twitter to Mastodon. Sad thing is he’ll probably never know how badly it’s impacting his engagement with his fans. Or maybe he just hates me. nostr:note1yswlv0eeeqtm800pjhw3sp3x8lj63dlhwtym4tv3hp97l3w7c0usmv509p

Looking to move away from #instagram which seems to be rapidly descending into it’s #latestagecapitalism #enshittification phase… I know there’s a #fediverse option in #[4]​ ​but I was wondering if anyone knows of any #nostr client options out there?

I haven’t seen anything else, but I’m not exactly the most observant at times (hence me confusing your request for a signing app with a browser extension 🤦🏻‍♂️)

I’ve been using the Alby browser extension but there are also nos2x extensions for Chrome and Firefox

Honestly, #GrapheneOS is looking more tempting by the minute… #damusgate

Gutted that I forgot to take a selfie outside the front door 🤦🏻‍♂️ #abbeyroad #studio2 #boatstory

Not sure why we’ve ended up using #footstr when #toestr is right there for the taking…

GM nostriches! Anyone recommend a good paid relay?

Finally got around to setting up a #bitcoin wallet, #lightning address and sent a #zap. Am I orange pilled yet?
