I think I get what you're saying.

Kinda like saying what makes a man jealous is seeing another have what he wants and be happy. And what makes him upset is seeing another have the thing, but remain unhappy.

The latter breaks the fantasy that having that thing would make him happy. And in the former case, he may put up a facade and say he could be happy too without what he wants.

We are Shitposting. It is the noble art of couching uncomfortable truths into humor and offense.

Nice nose ring. Great representation ⭕

It's called having a stable identity unlike these other flakey npubs.

I should probably not keep quiet about the fact that this release also includes an experimental feature that's not exactly easy to pull off: Smart Identity Anchoring.

Inspired by this post here:

nevent1qvzqqqqqqypzpraeg5qq8fvehvdnfupl4kumzdlkcrj6s596ypvkf0hywvkvee2fqyghwumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytnhd9hx2tcqypjm5ha6utzccft28ek5ccepymwzwrqn9x0cq56m2km7rywja5d6sxqhwjd

According to the feature story, it's supposed to solve this problem:

"Help users recognize people they follow even after profile changes (name, picture). When someone you follow changes their profile, the app shows visual cues to help you remember who they are based on how you first met them.

On Nostr, pubkey is the only stable identifier, but it's not human recognizable. Users change names and profile pictures frequently, making it hard to recognize people you know. This feature provides visual continuity during profile transitions."

So this is how it looks for now. User npub1kppw9a5asyvz4c35d0kh8gzulvlealcyw28u0f2mau8n6auna84sdyf9y3 changes its profil pic (and username), and thinks he can get away with switching his identity, because who remembers npubs anyway? But the profile pic and name from that first encounter got saved, and so it blinks back and forth between the old and new profile pics. Right there in the timeline and on the profile page.

I just thought: Show the old profile picture and name blinking for a while too, until the user gets used to the new one (or always). You can set this behavior in the settings.

Well, it's not exactly intensively tested, but sometimes I'm just the 'shoot first, test later' type.

What do you think? Good or bad feature? Unnecessary? Annoying?

I think this is a great feature. And should be everywhere.

Lmao 😂

It's not important that other people know. In the wise words of Mr. Miyagi, "Lie become truth if person wants to believe it."

I didn't recognize you at first 👀

Personally I don't think nostr.build should be on the hook for media compression. But putting the creator on the hook isn't great either because they don't usually know anything about video formats.

A separate caching and compression service is probably the play. Some kind of paid service that clients look to for optimized media. Then the viewer is on the hook, voluntarily employing a middleman to compress, store, and serve content from other providers.

Etymology is the most interesting part of language for me.

All that Feels Like temperature is BS though.

I've never considered ghee and butter as being equivalent. In my mind, they're entirely different.

It's like saying butter is better heavy cream.

The disk is full. I need to find a way to clear it up, but my Linux live USB didn't boot so I'm considering what else I can try.

I think my Start9 shit the bed

Good morning ✌️🧡
