Today marks 25 years since my country was bombed, in the operation called “Merciful angel” or “Angel of Mercy” - whatever.

In 78 days of air strikes:

- 420k bombs were dropped on us

- 4k died (81 child)

- 25k homes destroyed, plus:

- 14 airports

- 18 kindergartens

- 39 hospitals

- 69 schools

- 176 historical sites

- 500+ kilometers of roads

Etc

I was nine. I remember my nose bled from fear. I don’t know how me being scared caused my nose to bleed, but it happened.

I remembered the duffle bag packed next to the door, with a few cans of food inside of it, some clean clothes, passports, and all gold jewelry we had- cuz we didn’t know if it would get worse.

I still have ptsd triggered every time I head air strikes sirens. Luckily, I don’t hear them much- only when they are testing if those still work, or when are paying tributes to the casualties.

Anyway, for years to follow, my father would use any opportunity to gift us gold jewelry. Why? Because: “If it gets bad again, money won’t worth much. We learned that in 1994. You exchange these ear rings/bracelets/necklaces for food or anything you need.

Nowadays, I don’t have a run away bag prepared. But trust me when I tell you, I could pack one in jut a few minutes.

Nowadays, I don’t buy my kid gold jewelry, I stack sats.

It could be one of the reasons why I’m bitcoining. It gives me a hope. An escape plan, among other things.

As for the first part of my note, let’s stop for a second to think about all kids around the world, their traumas, bleeding noses from fear and sleepless nights. Let’s pray for their beautiful souls and innocent lives.

"NATO bombing of Yugoslavia

March–June 1999 NATO military operation in Yugoslavia

The North Atlantic Treaty Organization carried out an aerial bombing campaign against the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia during the Kosovo War. The air strikes lasted from 24 March 1999 to 10 June 1999. The bombings continued until an agreement was reached that led to the withdrawal of the Yugoslav Army from Kosovo, and the establishment of the United Nations Interim Administration Mission in Kosovo, a UN peacekeeping mission in Kosovo. The official NATO operation code name was Operation Allied Force whereas the United States called it Operation Noble Anvil; in Yugoslavia the operation was incorrectly called Merciful Angel, possibly as a result of a misunderstanding or mistranslation. NATO's intervention was prompted by Yugoslavia's bloodshed and ethnic cleansing of Albanians, which drove the Albanians into neighbouring countries and had the potential to destabilize the region." -Wikipedia

Result I got looking up what you're talking about

Through syncthing or next cloud which umbrel could use sure

User created white lists (what we call "People I follow" or "My Feed" or whatever you call the not global part of your nostr feed) is not feasible with email because part of its purpose was to allow messages from people you've never met before.

If you work in sales, hype is key

If you work in something like software development, expectation management is is what's important for you.

This bullrun, don't be a salesperson. Be the voice people will hear anyway during the post hype regret, before it can gets to that stage.

An architecture change only used on Apple devices yes.

I don't think its embarrassing to end support for it entirely personally

I actually swapped my gaming PC out for garuda yesterday, but this not supposed to be about that XD

Good morning nostr, do you install chrome or do you sideload chrome on windows?

Even most Americans haven't on their own behalf logged into a trading account and bought a blue chip stock.

Imagine being that scared of something that can't even hurt you while its trying to attack you (keeps hitting her helmet)

Especially when shitcoiners coopted it and people started calling them "crypto eyes"

Richard Stallman starts yelling from a distance
