Napoleon Dynamite was really bad. I tried to watch once. I will try again some time.

So I spent a little time reading the #Worldcoin white paper. Despite that, I am not convinced that "privacy preserving" and "biometric verification" ever belong together. I think it has to show how that is true beyond "trust us". I don't think they succeeded.

Maybe this is secretly backed by the TSA or something.

I saw The Godfather (the one with the horse's head) and found it so uninteresting that I went to sleep. Even Rocky and First Blood weren't that bad.

Episode IV, episode VI, and a couple of the Disney versions were good. Episode I wasn't as bad as people pretend. I think it was better than episode V.

These days, I go see one if the kids go, so we can discuss it. If they don't go, I wait until I buy the DVD.

I only recently heard of those.

Twitter and Facebook and the Russians. It could not have been that they picked an opponent with thirty years of scandals. No, it had to be Russia 🇷🇺 and social media.

Is it an either / or situation? You have multiple pools of listeners, with an unknown amount of overlap. You can post your messages to each pool and reach people that would not otherwise receive your message.

I don't know why people feel like Nostr must compete with Threads, the Fediverse, Bluesky / AT Protocol, Twitter, Instagram, Gab, etc. It stands on its own and needs no comparison to establish its value. So do most of the others.

I think that's going to confuse people because npub and private keys are also "nostr addresses".

But there were too many f words for me. If I can't listen around the grandkids, I'm not likely to listen.

Definitely a flaw.

nostr:npub1q8nhcxa8t9zfk06ggqwpwcr64znkxvnwt2wgzqdtga920g355p4qdfkct8 It looks like inability to edit reply lists is a common flaw in #Nostr clients.

The law firm made sure he didn’t back out. They deserve every penny.

I just want to go to a ballgame. I have not been since last year.
