Ah I get your point. Very interesting.

I had (but have lost) a connection to China, to CCP aligned Beijing no less. That was interesting, to get that perspective, and to see how normal good people could be aligned with such a horrible (IMHO) authoritarian political party. There was lots to learn there that I unfortunately didn't.

wassup 🤗👋 guys !

Absolutely. Create strong bonds with family and friends and locals. You may need them if world trade collapses and normal life becomes quite abnormal.

Your welcome, I think it sent it as a lightning payment not zap for some reason.

I'm amazed that digital networks have been around for 65 years, the internet for 35 years, and we still don't have words to talk about networks.

There's only a weak consensus about the meaning of network topologies like "federated", "decentralized", "distributed".

And there's no terminology for talking about the human control of those networks.

People use "decentralized network" and assume that you know that they mean human control.

Others think that human control and topology are the same thing.

Imagine if all nostr relays were owned by one corporation. The network topology would still be decentralized!

"Decentralized network control" doesn't cut it because "control" in terms of networks usually means automated.

Network science is a field of study but the language is still pre-scientific 😔

Also did you get a zap from me just now? My wallet seems to be being weird.

My city in New Zealand is one of several immigrant "dumping grounds" where immigrant refugees are resettled. As a result, we have quite a lot of muslim people here, especially from Syria. So far I have had only positive experiences and interactions with them. No street raping gangs, no knife crimes, nothing bad at all; Quality people, truly. Most of the crime in my city is theft perpetrated by motorcycle gangs largely composed of people from the local ethnicity, or traffic crime from young hoons driving far-too-loud cars at hyper speeds or doing doughnuts in the intersections.

I guess this must be because there aren't any Zionist propagandists down here trying to stir up racial dissent. Zionist propagandists can't spread themselves too thin, they have to focus on the US and the UK.

So while I support the free speech of people in the UK who think they are being invaded by poor-quality people, I strongly doubt their message... especially Tommy Robinson (Steven Yaxley-Lennon) who is a serial fabulist.

(that being said, I believe in controlled immigration rather than wide-open borders)

No worries man, we all get this way sometimes. Hadn't noticed. 🐶🫡🫂

I need to post more and code less

i think you need to re-read the Flash News Documentation we dont determine the news is authentic and reliable people do that and they get rewarded for it. Thanks for sharing your opinion tho 🙏

The consistent internal debate of do I really want to deal with long hair again? I should just go get an haircut.....but also not.
