One of the more amusing marks of someone’s age, is how far their history textbooks got when it hit “present day”. I remember mine in high school ended with Bill Clinton’s first term

Sounds like nostr for Bostonians

US Dept of Transportation recommends 18 large #transit projects in 11 states to receive $4.45 billion for construction

Ahh this looks to be the culprit of the latest hellthread with 1k+ tags #[0]

#[1]

Found a cool alternative to https:///cors-anywhere.herokuapp.com that, while isn't free, is a reasonable $4/m

https://cors.sh/

or at least only send an initial notification when tagged in it, and then none after that if it’s a post with more than X tags.

Thankfully, one of the perks of nostr is that I can just use the Iris webapp on my phone and laptop until Damus adds that feature.

The notifications tab in Damus is essentially useless for those in hell threads, the ability to mute a thread is super important going forward.

Perhaps because it’s only the relays the user is explicitly connected to that are storing their kind 0 events, whereas in the NIP-65/Gossip model, this list of relay metadata would be sent to hundreds of relays who may not want to deal with moderating the other things in kind 0, like profile pics or bios? Not sure

#[0] any plans to add NIP-65 support to Iris?

haha is yours from an anime? I thought that was an AI generated one! I meant more along the lines of trolls like #[3] 😃

autoBlock = true;
