closed source in a sea of open source is kinda dumb, and unjustifiable

they created a lot of distrust with this dick move, even if their app was pretty good

even non-devs are builders on #nostr at this point - you all are our faithful beta testers! God bless you all!

due to me being paid in bitcoin at the beginning of the month, i now have effectively the same nominal amount of fiat i had before i paid rent and upgraded my kitchen equipment substantially

of course i'm gonna do my darnedest to keep from making any big spends until i got enough to buy my little goat ranch... at this rate it could well be by the time i'm back on the market for a place to live (9 months time)

i'm expecting a 250k peak to the price in this cycle, so it's very likely this will launch me if i can keep producing value for people at my current rate

it is a priceless asset to have by one's location to be presented such a spectacle as these beautiful mountains of #madeira every day, and the amazing and unusual things the atmosphere does due to the sharp inclines and high altitude and our position right in the way of the cold blasts that come down from greenland

it is more pleasant temperature on the south side but i prefer crazy clouds and crazy wind as opposed to only crazy wind and lots of noisy people and their noises echoing around these rocky slopes

indeed, this is part of the response... other parts include researching and fixing health, establishing resilient production systems for our own survival, building networks of commerce with others to interlock and reinforce our resistance to being plundered, and last but not least, tuning into the frequencies of higher spiritual forces that will have a very critical role in the near future

yeah, it's one of the things that makes me so salty here at age 48 single and childless...

i think women have a biological imperative that is more strongly motivating as their hormonal changes are really intense, it's a slow descent for men, but that's also why it's people in my age group who are the most agitated about the situation, we feel it in our base chakra that something is very wrong

this is also why you can then add also to enable full RBF at the same time and this is definitely doing a service to the network as a whole

one simple example is in setting a bigger mempool... then your node is keeping transactions during heavy traffic from falling out of mempools without the sender knowing

i've been working on a secured relay chat text interface, i think it solves your issue more cleanly and without nip tweakage:

https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/pull/1079#issuecomment-1991351929

yes it could include adding an private/internal reserved kind number so you can store your ACL change events as events in the DB and not make your relay more complex with more configuration files

capital is anything that can be used to contribute to producing a desirable good or service for the market

the elites don't want us controlling the means of production and the means of production is a euphemism for capital, this is why they dumb people down, rob them with credit, use government force to expropriate their land, their culture, their ideas, and to silence our communication with each other so we don't resist their constant encroachments

yeah, i have built up a lot of that with my local shopkeeper/barman/barista/butcher guy... his place is like 2 minutes walk so it is a no brainer to get things nice with him... he basically can do any of those things for me if i ask him... he's been getting me milk and goat meat and the only thing that i really would like is to be able to onboard him to have a lightning terminal and get him on btcmap

i'm up for suggestions on how to make that smooth for him, it's a really nice area up here in ginjas in sao vicente and the rural culture of madeira is something that all bitcoiners need to get familiar with because these people are fierce and robust, small plot farmers everywhere, even the dude has his own chooks and small vinyard out back of his shop

stacking knowledge is a big one, as is alliances

how do you do that? stagit? the thing that i would really like is to be able to host the individual repos on base subdomains because i have a reverse proxy that's easy to set up, currently i am stuck with using the noisy prefix /git to oevery repo and i'd rather have subdomains... been meaning to learn how to do URL rewrites in my fork of leproxy but haven't got it working yet

really i don't see any point in the forseeable future where i've got anyone else contributing, what do you use for facilitating collaboration? mainly just being able to push branches so i can merge them up later when they are ready, just for future

true, but that's gonna be a pretty epic education campaign, and how do you trust these signing parties anyway? they don't require any vetting in reality and this is the tricky part of it

but at the same time, yes, i think in a long arc of the story this is the solution...

there is a fast syncing large cluster, weak consistency replication protocol called "pnyxDB" that precisely uses a WoT scheme for assigning trust to the database transaction updates and initial tests showed it was very fast at over 200 replicas

unprecedented for a non-centralised distributed database, it's easily double the performance of a practical BFT (ie, what most shitcoins use) distributed database consensus

requires the second step of kycing each authorised signatory identity to be valid... but yes, could be also used for democracy too

the client surely has to derive a private key from the invite though if i understand the proposal, and this private key needs to be stored by the user for security against loss

i think a signed code would be more secure, so it would be verifiably linked to a privileged user on the relay (like giving the relay an identity, this is something i'm working on right now), what's to stop a permutation attack if the string is short enough?

many good christians are this way nowadays with how utterly brazenly obedient the orthodoxy has been to the plainly evil corruption of pharma, media, intelligence and government

my mother stopped going to church 25 years ago because of it, and she developed a phobia towards reading religious texts and the bible as well as a result, she mostly concerns herself with her daily life and meditating upon it

whatever method you use to find your own connection is a good thing that's why i don't mean it as a slur when i point out that one collection of writings and other writings that were not included does not intrinsically make them incompatible with the Word of God

i personally couldn't read Daniel after i got to the part where it was clear daniel arranged nebuchanezzar's assassination however, that really disturbed me, as did the mention of the watchers

you know what the latin word for writing is, right? scripto... to scratch or engrave

there is no substitute for direct connection with the divine, anything concrete is intermediate and thus capable of becoming an idol and a fetish that separates you from your divine nature

the catholics allow statues, the orthodox allow icons, the muslims allow The Book and the black cube at the end of the Hajj, the jews have their candelabra and their torah

bruce lee sums up the meaning of "thou shalt have no god before me" and "don't worship graven images" in his monologue about the finger pointing to the moon

if that means you think i am a heretic, that is sad for you

it means i think of you and most religious people as idolators too, it is in the animal nature of humans to worship and follow leaders and codes and identify with collectives, all i can do is just point that out, and i only am going to do it once

God's word is personal and private, the bible is one public compilation of a myriad of documents about wisdom and prescience that has been given to us, one with a provably distorted selection criteria and not just excluded but outright purged elements that survived in far flung reaches beyond the control of the roman catholic agents

i think that there is among the writings of many others from many other places that constitute divinely inspired, and you can compare them to each other to find the connections, like vishnu purana, like corpus hermeticum, like the tao te ching and the writings of chuang tzu, like plato, socrates, there is many who have been inspired to write words that are markers pointing towards God the entire doctrine of The Bible being The Word of God is a catholic/christian doctrine of the churches, not something that is actually even written in them very many times either, at least not unambiguously, since they are compilations how could they possibly be unambiguously self referential!

it could even calculate based on half the available memory at startup too
