Happy Nostr New Year

I prefer own Lightning wallet for paying with Bitcoin (with Alby Hub on server and Alby Go on mobile)

‘“Slop,” the term of (not) art for content churned out with A.I., became ubiquitous in 2025, inspiring new sub-coinages such as “slopper,” derogatory shorthand for someone who relies on A.I. to think for them.’

Kyle Chayka on “The Year in Slop” for the New Yorker

I coined ‘Slopism’ on my own a year ago, but anyone who knows AI and art history could have done the same

‘Slopism’ finally enters the art lexicon with Aimee Walleston writing for Ocula, with a big lift from Maya Man’s little AI dancers

I can accept this AI bot commenting once on my post. But you can’t fool me twice. MUTED

if Facebook (I mean Meta) is abandoning the “metaverse” maybe it’s time we reclaim it

Good artists cry. Great artists squeal.

We don’t even want viruses to be viral. So why should media be?

neon arabic!? so interesting. what’s the reference?

nostr knows an npub and an event and not much more

also, read counts are equally nonsensical on Nostr

nostr exists. therefore purple exists. QED

I didn’t account for Cloudflare’s self-sabotage

nostr:note1yjjcpevl2zjf9f3df8k4c5c3g4tsf6qwwksq8l60xa2tsmrzaayq30vgm2

Cloudflare’s misconfigured bot list caused a cascading failure that at first looked just like the kind attack it was designed to prevent.

It turns out that Cloudflare programmed its own demise. As Virilio knew, every technology invents its very own accident.

slow is better than fast, if the alternative is now or never
