When did we accept that the only way to use our time is to maximize the remuneration for it?

To pass off child care just because “I can make more working,” or to have someone mow because, “I could make more elsewhere” denies that a well-rounded expertise is valuable in itself, or that your participation with an activity brings value to it. Maximization of returns at the cost of all else is a neoclassical economist’s wet dream that has slithered its way into the common sense of every home.

Reminder that 2 weeks ago we didn't have live.snort.social yet.

I can't stress how fast Nostr development is compared to anything else.

Looking for some #audible recommendations from you all.

Assume I've already listened to or read all the staples at least once.

Thanks in advance!

If you liked my iOS typos you're going to love my android ones

Typing on this thing is horrendous and takes a lot to move the cursor to the right place to correct them

Bullshit on this keyboard

The pervasive dialogue ever circulating about US National Debt exists in part to prepare the public consciousness for the never-ending war against social services. Austerity measures serve the rentier class and the corporations by shifting value from the public sector into the pockets of the few. The common sense thus becomes that public debt is bad, and that private debt is acceptable. And so Americans welcome the loss of the public-service aspects of government, and a neutered central power remains only as a managerial engine for corporate profiteering

Camping weekend with sis and niece was a huge success! Weather was much better than expected. We hiked, swam, sat at the campfire, and toddled around a lot. Nothing like a 1-year-old to get you out and about early!! So thankful and already excited to do it again. #grateful #grownostr

Part of the value of Nostr is being able to choose who stores your data, or even store it yourself, creating censorship resistance through optionality and redundancy.

This doesn’t scale very well to videos, at least not as currently constructed and with current technology. I’m no computer scientist or coder, but I know that my NOSTR relay wouldn’t be able to handle much traffic to read from it, nor would I want many people to write to it. At best, maybe you’d have two or three major relay companies competing and all storing your content, but media with lots of data really benefits from economies of scale.
