A friend came over and I took him out on a tour in the hood. I guess he snapped a few pics, lol.

Touch some grass today.

Nostr clients should give you the option to hide posts/accounts with a "Report Threshold" of your choice.

For example, I could choose that if an account has been reported at least X amount of times by anyone else (OR maybe just reported by accounts that I follow), it should be hidden from my feeds by default.

Of course this has potential for abuse. Maybe PoW could be added in some way.

This was tried early on in Amethyst, was it not nostr:npub1gcxzte5zlkncx26j68ez60fzkvtkm9e0vrwdcvsjakxf9mu9qewqlfnj5z ? The idea still has merit.

I know the "cloud" is the big thing, but I predict a return to local software/hardware at some point.

The cloud is just someone else's computer. Whatever I thought the benefits were at one point (I can't even remember) no longer outweigh the cost and loss of control.

There will always be a need for offsite backups and internal clouds, but I just don't see the appeal as an individual anymore. I'm even looking into ways to have 'offsite' backups that I still control.

One idea I've had is syncing to devices in my vehicle, home, and any other space I control. This has downsides, but one location going down wouldn't cause total data loss. It's proven to be quite an engineering task.

Factors to consider include device power needs (like in a car), the effect of weather on devices (hot/cold car), security, sync technology (Syncthing is promising), how often I can be in each place for a sync, etc. Cell connected devices may be a solution here.

I think it's possible and could become easier for average people with enough time and work.

I agree with many of your points. People should learn to live a hybrid life. Cloud and home servers, with offsite backups of both datasets when possible.

I actually made an episode about this last year called You Need a Home Server.

It’s not feasible at this time to have the masses unplug from the cloud and go to a home server setup. More tooling is needed for that. I think a sweet spot could be encrypted cloud computing that handles sync and collaboration among users, with home servers and clients performing the encryption auth. That’s not totally possible yet I don’t think, but it could be.

Two eclipses in one year. Friggin’ climate change.

Eclipse means I’ll break and eat some sugar. We got this as an “eclipse cake”. Get it???

A total solar eclipse is one of the most amazing things that I’ve seen.

Photos don’t do it justice. The light is diffused and emanates from all sides. There is a 360 degree sunset. Roosters crow and crickets start chirping. The corona is absolutely beautiful.

Find the next one relatively near you and do what you can to be there.
