you better go get a pen and remember how to do basic arithmetic lady

i do this with my relay-in-testing using a cheap VPS running wireguard and connect to it via wireguard, and on the VPS i have a reverse proxy with LetsEncrypt set up to point to my PC's wireguard address and the relay port and i can use my relay with any client that respects my relay settings (mostly, sorta, kinda, they do; nostrudel is the best for this)

it's a multi-step process a bit to learn to be able to do it but it's not that hard really... my reverse proxy is very simple to config too... https://mleku.dev/git/lerproxy and my relay is not ready for production so i won't link you to it... and https://github.com/angristan/wireguard-install is the wireguard installer script... easiest to do this with an ubuntu 20+ installation on your VPS

so, this is interesting, as it partially excludes nostr as a whole

the bitcoin company visa cards are a joke... but vouchers for various shops are pretty much all legit... steam, big supermarket chains, etc etc

they are at least one step away from fiat, corporate scrip is less evil than gigacorporate scrip

first thing a psychopath stuck with you in a cage while the prison guards have run away for whatever reason, is going to convince you of, is that there is no help coming

help is coming

you know this because of how vigorously they try to convince you that it isn't

so this means they start breaking the DNS roots btw, and the rest of the world switches over to russia's DNS system

the tribe of the angels left us mostly to ourselves here, but they are collectors of fine quality individuals and this meatgrinder has made a lot of quality units

i can assure you they will be coming to pick their crop and making sure the pests are thoroughly exterminated

they are just cultists of the real satan, what a surprise they are murderous, tricky and licentious

main reason why idgaf about the inevitable closed source nonsense is that first and foremost, and i doubt i'm the first to say this

first and foremost, #nostr is a network of developers

second it is a network of #bitcoin and #lightning fans

this other stuff is third level and not important because we have already got a functioning, disorganised conspiracy going on here

nostr:nevent1qvzqqqqqqypzqyjty0e0va25q248s993shxdzpn0hu8eu2m72cmg83urmvpy2k28qyghwumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytnhd9hx2tcpzemhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejz7qpqu9wet6xjqkqfvdsn7uthtpwxdw572y9cwgjgy2ex6lvn575hffsqhvepgk

they are trying the source code border restrictions nonsense again, they never stop

at this rate i'm moving to Cabo Verde where i'm outside of any federal juris my fucking diction

this is why we can't be shy about integrating with shitcoins, they can do the heavy lifting for the more normie stuff and have fun being sued

also, making rendezvous paths for hidden relays is not a big extra step too...

i think if the traffic volume is low, and it's primarily for internal access and you don't have a concept of outbound routing it could be quite interesting project

i know i could build all the pieces but it would probably take me a year to get to a decent beta product, maybe less if i happen to be able to find some competent golang/bitcoin/lightning/nostr devs to work with me

so, my favourite local barman/shopkeeper/butcher/impressario up the road, recently he started shaving more often and being generally more vain, and playing techno music loud at his establishment

and then two days ago he switched over to new wave style music, stuff in the similar vein as New Order and so on

so, as it turns out, the dude i want to get to have a LN terminal so i can pay him without going fiat, who is 2 minutes walk from me and open 6 days a week during daylight hours... is a goth

🤣

yeah, not even talking about pseudonyms for the hops

i already wrote much of this stuff last year but without the extra layer of encoding it into events

also it would not go well to make it into a general trasport, unless your hops have full bandwidth accounting, and you would have to segregate your first, second and third hops by always paying them through the prior layer and it would require... haha... keysend/AMP to keep your location private

lots there in that but i'm just gonna focus on one hop because of the bandwidth benefits

i know how to engineer it, but it does require NIP-42 support on all hops, and ... well.. the client... so it would telescope just like Tor, you open to one, then once you get auth you use it to open to 2, and then to 3, and then you push your request through the chain

on my list of things to do in the future, but just putting it out there

i thought about and even filed an issue towards the end of adding encryption to NIP-42 so it can transport through relays that act as proxies

but then i realised, wait... this can be something else... so if i have a paid relay, there can be a special type of event called "proxy" message, a kind, and inside that event is an event that creates a NAT style masquerade forwarding over a websocket so the paid relay acts like a proxy delivering this and returning responses

gotta think about it a bit more but i think that layers always > complex interfaces, so i am sure this is the right direction to go

#devstr #deardiary

my daily driver, God bless you

wen NIP-42 tho

it is not a clear interface design, just sayin

she misspelled the word, obviously

the best snack is starvation

not sure - seems to have a bit of extra overhead for nostr:npub1r7psmkr4zv93xnal8un6d8hvmpsn5jvhfzn3kk38rfcel6awznks7znspg 's use case as well as a new API to learn (vs proxmox)

i'm gonna love the tableflip show for sure... there's some sick units out there than need some table flipping, preferably flip their table into a roiling angry volcano caldera

also for that it might be better to use LXC containers anyway (via nspawn) that is extremely light weight and simple and gives you a lot of the same capabilities (idk about proxmox but libvirt can run these on the backend too)

well maybe you can find a way to mod/build that profitably.. it is very useful, but i think it does raise the cost of the hardware/reduce performance a little handling the hypervision

i know right? so ambiguous... in the dream when i hear her say it i assumed she meant to visit her but then i was like ?

very very strange

it's probably the normal way to say come visit me in some european language tho

i had a dream this morning that a girl asked me, "can i receive you"

that's polish

what's he talking about?

haha, whoops... been there done that... i'm sure you are ok now tho, it's never a bad thing... maybe it might cause you to go easy for a while but that's about it
