Handyman engineer. I bounce from project to project. I'm often called in to do the finishing touches, bringing 90% complete projects over the finish line. I'm good at making disparate systems talk to each other. * Zaps powered by nostr:nprofile1qqsf07zg4hxyccnkdp07fppxmetpfzru3fg6mgzx3nk8r7af8qnjjyg76vulm * On-chain powered by nostr:nprofile1qqsvxq03xdev3uxehjqcdkr5lfzl5vawmcf7vm6ps73m6ghwg8y4k2shaefxp *Always Buy the Dip* #privacy #security #linux #Android #networkengineer #infosec #SimpleX #dogs #cats #pets #cooking

I'm talking about their wallet. I have no experience with their exchange.

So I'm on a compulsory 24 hours cooling off with nostr:npub1ex7mdykw786qxvmtuls208uyxmn0hse95rfwsarvfde5yg6wy7jq6qvyt9 πŸ˜‚

What if I do cool off?

I've still got some Bitcoin Cash, what if I end up shitcoining, worse still what if I end up buying fiat? 😱

This cooling off thing is dangerous.

I'm ideologically opposed to Strike.

You can now mute notifications from specific threads that you don't want to hear from. That doesn't explain why you're getting notifications that aren't apparently associated with your npub, but it gives you a better option to get rid of them than uninstalling the app.

I think it makes sense to have a seperate config page so you can toggle the types of notifications you want from each in individual npub you're tracking. Because you might only want certain types of notifications for other people's npubs, while enabling all notifications for your own npub. Granular configs would be a good think, I believe.

And I don't give a shit about his views. That's why in this entire discussion, I never mentioned his views or his policy ideas. Because that's not the fucking point of what I'm saying.

I didn't say he was stupid. I said he's an incompetent manager. He's a view-from-30,000ft kind of guy. He's not a down-in-the-trenches, doing the work kind of guy. He's good at picking competent people to run his companies, but he's terrible at doing the managing himself. That's why the only Musk company that's a absolute train wreck, and is losing value at a stagging pace is the one he personally manages.

I don't disagree with that point. But it's a pivot from the what we were originally talking about. I think we've both said all there is to say on it. We're not going to agree on this, and that's OK. I respect you, and I appreciate your perspective even if I don't agree.

I think it's important for people with different beliefs to come together to have these sometimes adversarial discussions. It's how we move forward. I want to make clear that despite differing opinions about this issue, I respect the people making their arguments, even if I don't agree. Civil argument and debate is the way we understand and relate to each other.

I'm not hanging on one word. I'm refuting your assertion that millions of people acted as one, with a single motivation for their actions. It's an absurd prospect. People are individuals who have their own reasons for doing things. And by painting them all with one subjective brush, you are demonstrating a lack of empathy, and an unwillingness to see the situation from any other perspective than your own. It's unproductive, and intellectually bankrupt.

Lol it is a big deal when it's the basis for your entire argument.

Writing them all off as being motivated by spite is just a dismissive, self-reinforcing tactic to cloister yourself in your own beliefs and provide a justification for not considering the matter any further. It's not intellectual honesty, and it's not productive.

Even if you're correct that 100% of them hate Musk and are leftists, it's not evidence that spite is their motivation for leaving. Just because someone hates something or someone doesn't mean that getting away for it is out of spite. That's not what that word means.

It's irrelevant to what you're asserting. A red herring. You cannot divine the individual motivations of millions of people based on demographics and ideologies.

That doesn't mean they left Twitter out of spite.

I'm have no idea. What does that have to do with the individual motivations of all these people? You're painting with an exceptionally broad brush seemingly based on your subjective perception. There's no value in that. It's just a way to be dismissive, and support your preconceived beliefs. It's not objective fact.

And the fact that most of them are going to Bluesky isn't evidence of their individual motivations.

No. Nostr is the only place I am. That, and occasionally reddit for certain subs. But the fact is, you're attributing certain motivations to millions of people based, apparently, on your subjective perception. It's not reasonable to believe that all these people have the same motivations for leaving, and that motivation is the most cynical. It's not a reasonable or realistic belief.

What evidence do you have that the millions of people who are fleeing Twitter are doing so out of spite?

I don't understand the question.
