Well, you can't have means of production on the blockchain, so hard to fight goverments on this.

Did some late night coding with SVG for work project (traded work time to be with the kids in the afternoon ). It never cease to amaze me how much you can do with plain svg. Only bummer is no auto wrapping text, but still...

So the other day, nostr:npub1zfs0all2dz43da3gh5ghm53jjaufkqlyvsxydpz73r00hzd2hdaqt3vd2n promised 10k sat zaps to all that boost his job offer:

nostr:nevent1qvzqqqqqqypzqynqlml7569tzmmz30g30hfr99mcnvp7geqvg6z9azx7lwy64wm6qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnyv9kh2uewd9hj7qg4waehxw309ahx7um5wghx77r5wghxgetk9uqzqff2cxscqyj5heff285jtsdcan0ec7n87qt8dfmlv2kg2pgmlu0n4glpqp

Understandably the post got swarmed by legit and not so legit accounts and several of my follows did boost.

nostr:npub1vl38mdazffm0u644zj9lqt00lthuqwvnclqdxzvu0y2cvw4s539s3a5l7q even coded a tool to help them find the relevant accounts:

http://bounty-hunter.solajpafistoj.net/

but to this day, only a small selection of users did receive zaps as detected by that tool:

And here are some that did not get zapped:

Of course, nostr is not consistent, so late entrants could always fake the time and claim the bounty. Just be careful to not boost before the OP 🤯.

The tool appears to generate naked hex pub keys, not npubs but I don't see much motivation from nostr:npub1zfs0all2dz43da3gh5ghm53jjaufkqlyvsxydpz73r00hzd2hdaqt3vd2n to resolve these issues.

Is nostr:npub1zfs0all2dz43da3gh5ghm53jjaufkqlyvsxydpz73r00hzd2hdaqt3vd2n scamming us? I don't think so but apparently Sybils got zapped while high profile accounts did not get zapped. I guess fulfilling the promise just went over their head, where they had the honest intention to pay up.

We need better tools and a more robust concept of WoT cause Sybil attacks will only get worse.

Yeah, sorry about the naked hex keys, it was vibe coded during lunch break and bech conversion was getting some problems. I thought about making it more universal, but the rules for bounties are quite diverse (zapping back reposts or just author, deadlines, zaps sent before the actual repost for some other reason and so on). Creating one tool to fit them all without an audience that would actually need/request that is not that fun, so hence the one-shot tool.

Are there any accounts reporting more from Nepal, Brazil, Northern Ireland, or other countries/places where things are brewing but mainstream media usually picks up only the aftermath (and only after some heavy lenses). Would be interested in on-site accounts from UA as well. #asknostr

Apparently, the private network subnet 192.168.x.x was originally used merely as an example in some manual—but so many people followed it that it was easier to formalize it than to change it.

In meanwhile, the table is sortable (when fully loaded) via the header, and the timestamp is a link to jump.me, maybe that could help?

Interestingly the mentioned "sense of wonder" was nice talking point at recent kindergarten party too.

Cool approach. The repairs are printed on the foil that overlays the painting + there is pixelperfect record of the changes for future references. Smart.

It should be something akin Claude Code but implemented as MCP server with cost <1$ per day. Which frankly would be nice change from pricing of Claude.

Well, not for the ones who bought the bitcoins in the (legal, state backed) auction. Apparently those wallets got flagged on request of investigators (from same state that sold them...) and no exchange wants to touch it now. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Reading more about fiasco in czechia with somone donating 400 BTC to the ministry of justice. The aftermath is crazy.

Way to hand over the next election to the prorussian oligarchs 😠

It's called rubber dome switch. There are two types. One just applies pressure and there are two foils with printed traces underneath, separated by isolation with holes just under the key. When you press it, it makes top and bottom layer connect. Second type (and by photo it's your case) has the rubber bubble conductive/has conductive spot inside. When you press it it against exposed traces under it, it connects and it reads a press. It's really widespread solution, but usually hidden.

If there is oxide build up on traces due to the water damage creating isolating layer, try rubbing alcohol and somewhat gentle scrubbing it with cotton sticks.

Good luck!

Zajímavá otázka. Aktuální situaci neznám, nicméně infrastruktura pro mobilní sítě je typicky jištěná minimálně akumulátory, v lepším případě generátory. Co se týká objemu dat, tak je méně náročné přenášet 10 hovorů přes whatsapp než 10 hovorů po regulární síti. Takže je větší pravděpodobnost že budou fungovat SMS(RCS)+data než hovory. ALE. Státy mají většinou nějaký režim nouze který mohou vyhlásit a jeden z domluvených operátorů může přejít do vyhrazeného provozu kdy poskytuje služby jenom omezenému kruhu čísel. V ČR to byl kdysi Eurotel, kdo a zda to někdo převzal po něm netuším. Tak či tak, hotovost pro první dny blackout se vždycky hodí...
