Holiday gifts to myself. Hopefully Iβll get enough work done Monday and Tuesday to sit in this chair and read. π€

Depending on your work, you can also work and listen! π
Nothing is "waterproof". It's all trade-offs, all the time, all the way down. But WoTs are the most promising trustless solution we have (in addition to PoW).

This guy's good! But what's truly insane about this clip is that Mullen did it 30+ years ago π

Can't believe I've survived multiple winters of severe illness and death.

It's at a point now where it's almost impossible for me to use the "regular" internet. I can't access half the sites. The reason? I care about my digital hygiene and thus use a VPN. Sometimes switching to a different VPN or switching the country of the VPN works; other times it does not. Oh well, I guess I'm not going to watch that video, or read that article, or look at that picture. Whatever.
In addition to that, if I'm not blocked completely, I have to prove that I'm human every step of the way. Captchas, re-captchas, Cloudflare checkboxes, the whole shebang. I am human. I promise. And I am very annoyed. Outright angry, even. I doubt that any robot will ever be as annoyed as I am right now about the current state of the internet.
What annoys me most, actually, is that all these measures don't really work. There's bots everywhere. Robots get access to the stuff anyway, using farms of humans, just like in the good old days of WoW gold farming. The centralized "safety" nets of Cloudflare et al brought down large swaths of the internet multiple times in the last couple of weeks alone, and as things centralize more and more these outages will happen more and more.
I'm very close to breaking up with the legacy internet. I'm human, I can cryptographically prove that I'm human, and I have sats to spend. But the legacy internet doesn't care about that. It cares about farming me and my data, while annoying me to no end. I've been nostr only for a while now, but that was only on the "social media" side. 2026 might be the year where I go nostr-only for everything, or to phrase it slightly differently: permissionless for everything.
No more "are you human?"
No more "I'm sorry, Dave. I'm afraid I can't do that."
No more cookie banners, paywalls, and AI slop.
No more being treated like a child.
Even if it means that I'll have to self-host everything.
Even if it means that I'll have to build & maintain stuff myself.
Even if it means that it's a lot of work and pain.
Nothing worth having ever comes easy.
But the easy stuff is not worth having in the first place.
Here's to the year to come, and the new corner of the internet, build on cryptography and webs-of-trust. Real value. Real connections. Real humans.
Here's to nostr.
Introducing Lookmarks π
I am so happy that most of you like my nostr:nprofile1qye8wumn8ghj7mrwvf5hguewwdshgmmndp5hx6t8deskctnrdakj7mn0wd68yun9d3shjt63x3fyu6n9wdesz9mhwden5te0dehhxarj94jx2a3w0f3xgtn8vuhsqgx2ukm75dy2lm7ycyptk7cjt3yj3ug5wwdz0wrhc670hed8j2qrsstmd28h. Love you all, my #Nostr family! π«
You have a great smile! Keep it up π€
GN now for real tho π« 
Yes of course, that's because the redirects are random, not fancy and smart.
All the Nostr links we add in Bitcoin Breakdown now uses njump.to by default. There are quite a few of them, especially in the Tuesday and Thursday issues.
Thank you for building this tool nostr:nprofile1qythwumn8ghj7ct5d3shxtnwdaehgu3wd3skuep0qyt8wumn8ghj7etyv4hzumn0wd68ytnvv9hxgtcqyphydppzm7m554ecwq4gsgaek2qk32atse2l4t9ks57dpms4mmhfx5ltf6v π
Cool! Someone has to fix this properly however, otherwise njump.to becomes a central point of failure π
I'm a #GrapheneOS type of person, so Apple is not in the cards. I'm sure Apple Health and Google Health is great and works for many people, but it won't work for me I'm afraid. Appreciate the response though π
Yeah, that's in part why I never got one. Thank you for the comprehensive response π
