“So what’s nostr?”

What if DMs were device-based?

We could use a secret from the device to create a new private key to use exclusively DMs. Since the new DM key can stay in the device's secure element, there is no way for any other device to access your DMs, even if you keys leak (they will inevitably do).

Pros:

- avoids leaking DMs when the nostr key leaks.

- DMs that expire when the phone expires

Cons:

- users cannot migrate the DM history to a new phone/client

With private group DMs, we could add all device keys in a single DM message so that current devices of a user can read the DM history.

What is the name of the kind of bug that resolves itself whenever you add a log line in the code that would finally cause you to understand it -- then comes back after you remove the log line?

Sounds easy enough! I might just go take a few cuttings and do that.

Any tips for propagating mulberries? We just found some growing wild and we want to try propagating them.

There is an intriguing perspective that suggests our thoughts are not solely our own, but rather the voices of unseen entities. This notion challenges the conventional understanding of consciousness.

According to this belief, our minds serve as conduits for external forces, be it spirits, energy, or collective consciousness. These entities whisper their ideas, opinions, and desires into our thoughts, shaping our decisions and influencing our actions.

If true, it implies that our mental landscape is a complex interplay between our own minds and the unseen realm, blurring the boundaries between self and the supernatural.

Such a concept provokes profound contemplation about the nature of our inner voices and the depths of our existence.

Lol, nice - is this out of satisfaction of completion, rage release, art, habit or all of it ? 💜

PV and good morning 🌞☕️ I’ve got only 5 things on my to-do list 📝 today, but heavy stuff. The satisfaction of crossing them out keeps the momentum going. If you are jaded, I’ve often found this method to be helpful. That and self rewards after completing each items, be it even a quick break on Nostr. And setting a total time frame - 11 hours to go before a long walk to catch the sunset. Let’s do this 💪

I almost forgot the photo today. Gah. The true test comes this Thursday.

Nick Ferguson said there is a specific nematode that kills them.

I do have a way to give them a horrible death though, orange oil. Put about 2TBS to a gallon of water and slowly pour it into the mound.

It melt their exoskeletons and I have to think it is a shitty way to go. And I agree they deserve it.

Hahaha,, was so excited #grownstr

My research said superbells and begonias would not love each other so well

Can someone publish a book to #nostr if they had thier own relay setup?

Dropping a grand on epigenetic testing. Hope this isn't a scam!

I’ve often wondered how one becomes all left or all right. Who boxed you in?

There’s always policies and principles and sound leadership that might lead you to pick sides.

But there’s also this aspect of human nature, this innate desire to want to belong, which often leads to fully embracing something while suppressing those who are not part of it. Other tendencies include following the crowd, herd mentality, loyalty, hype and sensation.

It’s the same everywhere. When you are aligned to one, it’s simpler to notice the fault of the other.

Politicians always know how to play their game - they pull you in, they piss on the other and before you know it, you are agreeing to all of their ways. Who wins ? They do. They always do.

It took me a lot of reading of history and understanding how the world works to realise how jaded I was and to pull myself out of this equation, and not be a die hard fan of a party, of any sides, nor any politician.

But - so as long as we are democracy, we have to pick sides.

So who do we pick?

This time around, don’t pick a party or left or right. Instead, pick one who serves you best, based on what you need and believe in, as how it should be. As how they should be.

You should not be boxed in - they should not box you in. That’s their easy way out.

It’s time for governments everywhere to start learning to speak to their people and understand what their people want if they want to represent them.

And over time, you will see hatred and extremism between parties reducing. Because it was never about the people. It was always about politicians and power. It’s time to changed that

Please recommend me some people to unfollow.

Do you have a guide on how to do this with logs? I’ve been trying to get into this by growing some indoors in substrate, but haven’t tried to inoculate any logs. Are there similar contamination issues?

Curiosity is probably my biggest reason , I have a colleague who recently tested a three-day fast but she drank vegetarian broth so I was a little eager to test whether it was possible to do it on only water as I thought it was cheating to drink broth. What was most fun about this test was to see my colleagues' upset reactions that I passed it so easily and did not get any personality changes as they expected me to be grumpy and run out of energy. Had easily managed 4 days this time, but must read more about what is safe if I were to try a longer fast next time.

NIP-101

=======

Fix for stolen secret key problem

----------------------------------

This NIP defines a solution that may be implemented by clients and relays for stolen keys problem. Lets say a user owns two accounts, uses A actively but wants to switch to B in case A is stolen.

- Secret key A sets a 'successor' pub B by storing an event with a new kind in a relay. Kind may be 101.

```json

{

"id": "...",

"pubkey": ".......AAAA........",

"created_at": 1669695536,

"kind": 101,

"tags": [

["successor", "...........BBBBBBBBB......."]

],

"content": "",

"sig": "...signature.by.AAAA........"

}

```

- In case secret key A is stolen, the owner of A uses secret B to start simply creating notes of any kind, or create one event with a new kind that says "B is now succeeding A". First option is easier, second is more elegant.

```json

{

"id": "...",

"pubkey": ".......BBBB........",

"created_at": 1769695536,

"kind": 1,

"tags": [],

"content": "Hey I am the owner of AAA and my secret key was stolen. This is my new account",

"sig": "...signature.by.BBBB........"

}

```

OR

```json

{

"id": "...",

"pubkey": ".......BBBB........",

"created_at": 1769695536,

"kind": 102,

"tags": ["p",".........AAAAAAAAAA..............."],

"content": "Hey I am the owner of AAA and my secret key was stolen. This is my new account!",

"sig": "...signature.by.BBBB........"

}

```

- Clients see B is active and show a warning that A is now stolen and B is the new one. Clients update the follows.

- Relays MUST block 101 events that are older than X days for this to work properly. X may be 7. Clients MUST fetch ONLY the first 101 from a relay that supports this.

What will happen if only a few relays implement this NIP?

---------------------------------------------------------

The attacker will use secret A to create a 101 with an older created_at. Clients will think the successor of A is actually was C..

The clients will see both B and C coming from relays. At this moment the client may choose to 'honor' the relays that implemented this NIP and choose B as the successor instead of C.

Requesting for comments. What does everyone think?

#[0] #[1] #[2]

What if you are using the Gossip Model (Auto finding relays) and the attacker gets a hold of your keys, changes your relay to their custom relay and remove those protections?

What blocks the attacker to go back in time and publish a second pubk B? How do you know which event to trust if you have two of them?

The answer is of course, yes there is.

That’s wild!!! Yeah, I wonder why there’s so much similarities to the dream? Perhaps we’re all here for a VERY specific reason. I’ve always felt like I’ve had a big mission.

this is similar to Lauren of Light's Noah's Ark dream
