In principle, no.

It was done rather quickly, in less than one hour, but it was too late to eat, and these things taste better the next day anyway. Will post the dish tomorrow. #foodstr #cookstr nostr:note10240jhm6k2x9r0sjdxgnmeml33ucpjuc23lnzxwhjrp43lggzy3qkenx98

I usually do not #cookstr in the evening. Like, nothing beyond simple soups, salads or grilled protein. But my wife brought some rabbit and I just had to. Will post when done. #foodstr

Me too, actually. Just to clarify: when I ask for "features" it's always as an opt-in or something that the user can toggle or set, never something hardcoded in the client, or even less something that has to happen at the relay level.

It's good to read primary historical sources, like newspapers and transcriptions of public speeches, about that time period.

The main driver of WW2 was never an ideological repulsion against fascism and nazism among European and American politicians and elites, but a simple territorial war.

The US and other countries had massive and thriving eugenics programs, for instance. Nazi Germany was a latecomer and just imitated what the US were doing.

Jews were being pogromed en masse in Greater Russia during the 19th and early 20th century. From where and when do people think several millions of them ended up in the US? Just from when the Nazis went after them and from the lands they occupied?

And the only reason they weren't purged in Western Europe was because that had been done in the centuries prior and their numbers, where they still existed, were modest.

Just the same, Western elites do not have any type of aversion against the current totalitarian regime in China, barring some methodological differences - in the West due to our particular historical path and our multiparty electoral system, the heavy handed procedures of the CCP are deemed as counterproductive.

So just as corporatist Euro-America adopted, boosted and took to new levels the "welfare state" and the "freedom within the Greater Good" principles of communism and fascism, so we have fascism without calling it fascism, they will implement exactly the same measures they call totalitarian when it's China, just with some other adjective when it's us.

No screws at all would be my choice (=black frame), but that wasn't one of the options 🤷🏻‍♂️

That's an unsubstantiated trope at this point, historically speaking. The US and Europe beat communism and fascism by adopting a socialist corporatist system from the 50's onwards. In other words, they beat the enemy by becoming it. The game plan with China is exactly the same. nostr:note1nmu8prxrm4q4ljyere9v7pzh7fmneas7m7u88lng80cmgyqcnjqq7aarm4

A Nostr client feature that prevents the same bloody note from a major account followed by basically everybody to show up ten times in a row on your feed because everybody unnecessarily keeps reposting it.

About this, actually, the Fourth Reich will have to make a tough call here with their Reichscoin, because it may really hurt the bankster system.

The Reichscoin, in the end, will be a liability directly on the Reichsbank books, so people will prefer it to the deposits offered by the banksters. So either the banksters offer better yields, or people will withdraw their cash. That's why the Reichscoin will come with hard limits on how much of it people will be able to hold, i.e., how many of their bank deposits they will be able to convert.

I think that's exactly why the US is hesitating a lot about developing their own CBDC. American banksters are probably more powerful and hesitant. nostr:note1ckgrkhtfm6accmz66x7ax6ckntr4hp93ffpjs9mlgu6ryp8cmeaqdj8h2c

Yes but again, what content? It isn't there. Perhaps the point here is how to make content creators, in the broadest terms, join Nostr first.

And that brings us to the "but muh engagement!" complaints we see so often here.

Same here. There are a bunch of Fediverse incel psychos, for sure, and some porn (mainly anime).

But nothing egregious. Isn't the content you catch on Global related to your wider network? As in, X number of people removed from your direct follows?

Perhaps what people who catch the most bizarre and trashy content on Global should do is take a look at who they follow first...

I fucking hate when social apps do that. Also Nostr just isn't there. If I want to read about linguistics, what is the client going to offer to me? We are at a stage in which other than bitcoin maximalism there isn't enough content. People who join now MUST create it, not just passively consume it.

Undoubtedly they want to outlaw it. How would that work in practical terms? Can they "mark" "tainted" sats?

Dude, after Damus/Primal nuked my follow list I hadn't realized I had lost you until now!

I found this note scrolling through Global of all places and thought, wait Paulo posts this and I haven't seen it on my feed? Weird, let me check. And then I saw I wasn't following you.

I just wanted to bring that up.

My personal opinion has always been that the status quo is split between:

1. those who are too old to get on the train like Buffet and that other dinosaur partner of his all will simply be swept aside

2. the ones that even today think they can fight this, like some leftist politicians and academics who realize that Bitcoin is inherently anti-State

3. the ones that realize that Bitcoin is inherently anti-state and instead of fighting it want to coopt it. Like BlackRock and JP Morgan.

I think the last faction is destined to win.

Reminder that the US government has spent 8 trillion dollars over 20 years on "the war on terror". It's not that Budget isn't relevant. On the contrary, the racket thrives on unlimited spending. 70 billion a year to "fight shady criminal superhackers sponsored by North Korea and Iran"? That's exactly the type of thing they want.

So today's PAMP is because all of a sudden some people on Tweaker are all like

"OMG LOOK AT THE DEBT AND THE RELENTLESS GUBMINT SPENDING"

and now they conclude that

"THE Fed MUST PIVOT NOW 😡😡🤬🤯🙌✌️👍👍👍"

For real, the cattle never ceases to amaze me.
