Are you running in the race? Or waiting for the war. Because war is certain to come if the race is not won.
Happened silently a few days ago yeah
I love the fact that SimpleX puts users (and their queues) at the center of the universe. Whereas with nostr, users are at the mercy of popular relays.
Yeah I totally agree. But I think he has a certain type of neckbeard appeal. Or rather, he must, since he has such a huge following.
While we're on the meta topic, my pet peeve is people posing questions but then never engaging with any replies. Gtfo with that idea harvesting.
Technically yes. But it was also my reaction to your note / comment 😝
What is Zapple Pay? Zapple Pay is a website and new Nostr service that allows you to use Zaps again on Damus. Congrats Apple iOS users!
This service will allow you to get back to using #1tap2zap or Zapping a note with only one single tap. How does this work? It's honestly quite simple. Once you set up the service, the service does the Zapping for you, based on you reacting to a note. So, any time you use a specific emoji on a note, the Zapple Pay service will Zap it for you from your Lighting wallet.
How do you setup Zapple Pay?
You need to use the Alby Lightning wallet. Visit https://nwc.getalby.com and sign into your Alby account.
Create a New Connection.
You should set a budget for your Alby wallet, to help project your funds.
Look for the NWC connection string and copy the all of the text.
Visit https://zapplepay.com.
Enter your npub, select the trigger emoji that you want to use to represent Zaps. (An update is coming out that will give you multiple reaction choices on Damus. Right now you may only have 🤙)
Choose your default Zap amount.
Paste in the connection string.
That's it! Happy Zapping!
Pretty weird that you can't manage existing configs
I continue to make my home network even more complicated. The cool thing about having dedicated hardware for each function (modem, router, Wi-Fi) is that I'm now at the point where I can add arbitrary Wi-Fi access points as nodes to my mesh network and my client devices seamlessly switch between them while still automatically being protected by the DIY VPN I described in this article.

Does Tor run OK over a VPN?
Sorry should have been more specific: how does one zap on a note directly in the client
corrupt french politicians have just legalized spying on protestors - very common anti-protest tactic now - compromise phones: track location, activate mics and cameras, read messages
if you are protesting - anywhere in the world - leave your phone at home - if you need comms consider radios or buy a burner with cash
for secure messaging I recommend signal or simplex - disappearing messages enabled just in case someone gets arrested

In the case of nostr:npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828, there are no user IDs, so if you use a nym (or the native incognito mode) and the device is compromised, that adds an additional layer of protection.
Yeah we've probably already seen some of that, but there are also probably a bunch of more conservative players who will only buy once the ETF gets approved.
What's up with the divisiveness?
I'll be getting hardcover, audio and ebook. I switch a lot between mediums.
