🍿funny watching Will be a tad insufferable whenever anyone shares opinions or feedback or converses with him. He muted me for giving too much actionable feedback (I guess), so now I just get out the popcorn

Is it ever supposed to stop spiraling and do something after clicking unlock?

For micro anounts like zaps, ecash seems promising. I haven’t used zaps at all because I’m not confident I can do it privately.

For this small value use case, I would trade some of the decentralization of LN for much better privacy and performance of ecash. nostr:npub12rv5lskctqxxs2c8rf2zlzc7xx3qpvzs3w4etgemauy9thegr43sf485vg

What if you could only contact the mint through tor? Don’t they have some kind of PoW ddos prevention system now?

Do you not see the value for a privacy tool with strong guarantees that are easy for anyone to use/understand? Monero is exactly the tool for this use case, it isn’t competing with bitcoin for store of value.

Very strange the last two zero day critical security updates don’t use their rapid security response system, Apple values UX over security and always will.

After bungling the last rapid security response by releasing a buggy update, they seem shy to try it again now.

Spotlight has to reindex files apparently? Various apps for me have been freezing, not just Damus.

“Re-indexing all files on a device can take time, potentially a few days. During this time, users may find their iPhones running a bit slow for searches and other tasks, and their battery may be consumed at a faster rate than normal.”

Hi, can you clarify the use case a bit, other than the direct sat pricing, didn’t you already basically offer an ivpn connection paid for via LN? So the main thing here is the shorter access periods?

Plz take time to really dig into these claims or the whole doc will be hand waved away and disregarded.

Looking forward to Huberman’s deep dive, especially into the actual *chemical mechanisms* of things like this EMF oxidation claim etc.

Your visuals could be a great asset to the story, but maybe even wait to see/collaborate with Huberman to really get into the mechanisms and find quality studies on the topic!

I need AI to make realistic “photos” of what the pyramids would look like–near modern Cairo–with their limestone casings and pyramidions still present.

Do you somehow have apps that repost all your content to various social media networks? I see identical posts here but also unique replies?

Is it just me, or does it seem like everyone is super reluctant to monetize services and relays on #Nostr?

If we can’t make these things sustainable then we will either lose them, or they will stay nothing more than a weird little corner of the internet with lots of hope but no chance of ever scaling.

I still haven’t seen the basic model of zap sharing tried by any major client or relay. But I DO see regularly comments about how expensive relays are. I mean it might not work, but can’t we TRY it?

I want to make the distinction here too that this doesn’t mean we are closing off the network, we are adding permissions to the protocol, this doesn’t suggest at all to used closed source code, we simply need the services necessary to keep this ecosystem robust, to be profitable and have the resources to thrive. If they aren’t, then NONE of this works. Economics is everything.

I know building features is more exciting. I know we all want to make everything that we can free, and I agree all of the *code* should be shared. However, I think there is a natural insecurity (and I say this because I have this problem personally) with charging a fair price, and fearing criticism or the ire of people who believe everything should be free (as in price) when we need things to be free (as in Liberty). They are not the same, and confusing the two could stifle, or drastically slow down, the insane potential of this place.

TL;DR We have GOT to divert some energy to thinking about how to make this ecosystem sustainable, or we will lose it.

(Disclaimer: this isn’t a judgement on whoever is thinking about this problem. It just *seems* like few are. If you are building in this way please share your ideas or what you are trying. I’m extremely interested)

nostr:npub1t89vhkp66hz54kga4n635jwqdc977uc2crnuyddx7maznwfrpupqwra5h9 aren’t you working on stuff like this? Sats for bytes?

Yes yes meat good. Like I get it but I see it soo much nowadays it’s getting as annoying as the pious vegans

Is your mastic differentiated somehow than other mastic? Currently it’s $41/100g for straight from Greece large mastic “tears” on Amazon. You do have a cool tin, but $/gram needs work if it’s basically the same material

PSA do not plug your iPhone into anything you don’t own (aside from power for charging).

If something you don’t own (eg. hotel TV) asks you to trust device, abort. Bring an old Apple TV to hotel if you want to AirPlay.

Lol I clicked this and as it loaded I thought.. “I swear to god if this is a $50 gourd…”
