I don't care what you think of me, only how you came to think it.

What is your use case? If you aren't using an anti-fingerprinting browser then it shouldn't matter what extensions you install.

Forbidden cheat technoque, too OP plz nerf

Dear Damus Notedeck Developers,

1.) If you only intend for Notedeck to be for Debian based distributions then you severely limit your potential new user base.

A vast majority of Linux users hate Debian based distros. So maybe if you are lucky you are appealing to 20% of the Linux family tree if that. I am pretty pissed that I have to use a Debian based distro just to try out Notedeck.

2.) During the build process I noticed that Notedeck may be Wayland specific, but please correct me on that if I am wrong. Not all desktop environments and window managers use Wayland. Which would explain why when I tried to build it. It did not work on a Debian based distro using x11. All I got was a blank screen and nothing else. If it is Wayland specific change the GitHub docs to reflect that requirement so Linux users do not waste hours of their time like I have.

3.) Make this way easier for all Linux users on any distribution by making Notedeck available on flathub.org as a Flatpak now. Does not matter if you are in Alpha. You will get an influx of Linux users overnight and have access to a lot of new experienced developers. Who will instantly start contributing code and zapping sats to fund the project to speed everything up.

You could also go the Appimage route too. Flatpaks are just better in my IMHO, but you do you. Here are some links to get you started. At most this would take you 1-4 hours worth of work.

As of right now this Bespoke Memetic Artwork is depicting my experience trying to get Notedeck up and running on Linux. Which is now around the 10 hour mark and probably by 5th attempt. All I would love to see is for installing Notedeck be a graceful process. Not a painful one like pulling my teeth out with a pair of pliers like it is now.

What are you talking about? I would think the majority of Linux users use Debian based systems actually. Do you have a source for your claim that the majority hate Debian? What reason would someone even have to hate Debian?

Google used the information from your search to build more of their profile of you, which they DO sell to people. Google records the links people click and uses that data as well. You can rest easy knowing that Google will do anything they can to take their pound of flesh from you.

I said an "AND based" search, meaning based on returning only notes matching every term rather than returning results matching any term. Does that clarify my question?

Okay, I understand the reply situation. A lesson here is do not use two clients for same purpose.

Regarding, the need of government to run from taxes, i meant technically it does not require taxes to run. They can just print money. But i suppose inflation is also a tax.

The main point is enforcment requirement for your definition of law. Constitution is enforced by courts but is law only the thing that is written in constitution and enforced as such, if freedom of speech is not given as a right would it cease to exist. Yes, minor things needs to be written but what about some rights that exceed in major ways like right to life, equality and pursuit of happiness. This brings up a point that does rights exist independently from a state or it is merely a manifestation of state.

The enforcement necessity of the definition makes me think, a law cannot be not a law if it is unenforceable, like copyright law on the internet is not really enforceable think torrent swarms, that does not mean it is ceases to be a law.

You said courts run on taxes true. A tribal or indeginous people have their own 'laws' it exists even today in certain parts, for eg. More share of meat is given to a person who lands the killing blow. Would you call this not a law? Perhaps only a necessary arrangement? The elders decide the punishment if a party fails to follow the law, elders do not require money to run. That is also atleast for me a valid law as it shares the same principle as a government's rule, don't pay taxes go to jail.

This segways us to the latter points."Our right to influence is only because we pay taxes". I think it's not the case, our right to influence the government comes from the fact that certain powers are surrenderd by us and handed over to the government. That also includes taxes but there are far greater power the population surrendered, like complying with laws or not to bear arms and invade a neighbouring country.

You asked is imperial country's populous government or not. The reason I included the tibal example above is to expand more here. It indeed is populous government not in the same way a democracy is but it is. If people move out of a nation state, the state ceases to exist. The tribe requires the population to be a tribe. So it does matter to discuss the imperial or dictator regimes because they exist, the definition of law cannot discriminate based on what kind of governmental structure a state has, the law is just oil in the engine, it should not matter which kind of engine it is, oil should be oil no matter what it runs.

Private contacts are not laws? Why? If you say so whole part of legal structure is challenged.

A contract has the same binding force as a law made by the government, don't stop at a red light pay money. Don't honour the contact, well pay money. Why is private contract different than a law? It does bind you in the same way as a law does can even restrict your valuable rights like criminal law does, should we treat such thing any different than law?

I cannot fully understand your position on the definition of a rule. Here is mine, rules are set of things one ought to do or not to do in a particular context of situation. Should it be more complicated than that? It does not matter what a rule is now I suppose but I want to hear what you say.

I can see the idea that a tribe might count as a government with laws, even though they don't have taxes or use force to extort the taxes from eachother. However, ordinary families have rules too, and I think you'd be hard pressed to find someone who believes that families are states and "take off your shoes before walking in the house" is a law. Similarly, I don't think a contract between two private individuals can be considered a law or considered legally binding unless there's a chance one of them could take the other to civil court. You say "don't honor the contract? Pay money", but how would that be enforced without the state?

If a law on the books would never be enforced, then I don't consider it a law in reality. There are some laws like piracy laws which can be difficult or impossible to enforce, but I wouldn't say that those aren't laws. Rather, I would say that the piracy is happening outside of the state's jourisdiction.

On the topic of rights, I do believe rights are independent of the state. Even in China they have freedom of speech. The state can never decide for you what you meant by your words, especially if you aren't talking directly too them. When you say "Whinnie the Pooh", absolutely nothing can stop you from meaning "Xi Jinping" inside of your head and the head of your intended listener. All they can do is try to punish and exploit anyone who is nice enough to speak in a slightly more straightforward way so that the state to take action against them.

And it goes the other way around too. Even if an organization or government "surrenders" something to us, it doesn't mean that we suddenly have the right to it, especially if we aren't providing anything in return. Suppose an army shows up in another country one day, displaces the previous government, and quickly suppresses any opposition. Then, they start digging up the ground to mine a natural resource far further down then we could have effected.

If they start giving orders to the people living there, would those count as laws? More importantly, if they start imposing artificial rules on themselves, would those constitute rights? Suppose they promised not to demolish and dig underneath daycares. So what? What right would the people have to complain even if they did? Is there any choice the population made that actually helped the foreign power? So what if the people build something and it get's demolished? What right do they have to complain? It's not the foreign powe's fault they decided to build on top of those resources. If anything, the people would be oppressing themselves and violating their own "rights" by building in such stupid places.

The idea of a government that doesn't need its people even for taxes is one that absolutely terrifies me. The people's final line of defense against their government is supposed to be mutually assured destruction. The government can't take money from the people if the people never earn any money. The government can't take people's labor, or the products of their labor if they never work. The scariest thing about civil war to a government is the fact that the people fighting don't have anything better to do. They would rather die and therefore do nothing forever than contribute the slightest bit more towards the state. Without that threat, the government loses the final thing that ties its actions to the will of the people, and the people lose their right to representation.

I probably haven't responded to everything you said, so please repeat anything you still want me to respond to.

Once it started going "human: ***, AI: ***" filling in an entire conversation between the two of us. It was trained on conversations so that's what it'll reproduce! Just other AIs are smart enough to notice and paste in the character that ends the AI's side of the conversation before they are able to show off what they think you should say. Actually, I don't know if there's a stop character, but it's something like that. Every AI wants to generate both sides of the conversation, mixtral is just stupid enough to wander around the fences meant to corral the AI and prevent that from happening.

Mistral has a few screws lose in its head, and it's 7 braincells have a tendency to overheat.

I suspect that she may not have been opened up yet. We don't live in Canada after all, where you have to fly to another hospital and wait 7 days to get your knee sewn back up after surgery.

Euro is backed by every single business in Europe that accepts the currency. Including those that allow the purchase of phones, cars, and homes.

Can I buy all those with Bitcoin? Or do I have to translate into fiat first?

Some time after joining Nostr I eventually realized that the first guy was just a bot, so I did end up blocking him a while ago. I haven't seen any of his posts since. I'm on Amethyst.

I remember appreciating he other user I remember appreciating their posts, so I don't want them removed from the platform. It seems they have 4 accounts. They are from the Fediverse, so take that into account.
