SwissNode - ever wanted to be your own Swiss Bank?? Changing the world a node at a time. Join me in the revolution! PS Toxic spelling corrector. Be warned :)

"Damus Web is down because there is someone trying to exploit browser loopholes to steal private keys. I would not recommend using a web client at this time. Damus iOS is not affected. "

hmmm - will give that a miss then!

my pet hate are those 4 symbols printed under EVERY note in EVERY client, wasting valuable vertical real estate. Why some client can't just put those 4 icons to the side and perhaps even only show them on a mouseover (unless there are non-zero counts) I don't get!

Almost makes me want to make my own client now! lol

i love the way i can say motherfucker without hesitating. I found myself always hesitating, wondering whether the Twitter algo would "tell me off" and suggest I edit the post...

THAT is what freedom is like: not having to worry about a word you use...

depends what groceries you spent $20 on :D

Well the Sovereign Bitcoiners or Natural Law Bitcoiners will argue that the only thing you really aren't allowed to do is kill others (sometimes this is adapted to "thou shalt not steal")

I quite like that way of living. But as you say, how does that hold up in a society that does want protections from the vilest of things which only just fall short of taking someone's life?

I guess there is no answer. We pray that once Nostr is attacked in such ways that we find ways of countering vile actions. I am sure someone clever will come up with some kind of mechanism for doing so.

As A Antonopolous once said the assymetry of evil means that good should win. The answer to "bad speech" is "more free speech" and not less. This is important to understand...

Just unsubscribed from Twitter Blue.

Everything nostr:npub1qny3tkh0acurzla8x3zy4nhrjz5zd8l9sy9jys09umwng00manysew95gx keeps telling us about that service is true.

It's deeply disturbing.

Nostr and Bitcoin are our hope people!

yeah i was riveted by the podcast with Pete - am totally on the same page! Blue check marks are the first slippery step on a very slippery slope... and by fixating on price and not identity-checking Elon is one super-sneaky motherfucker...

There is "content I don't like" and content I hope we can all agree upon is utterly vile and has no place being stored on any server anywhere.

Putting up pictures of defiled young people has nothing to do with free speech btw - in any way, shape or form. I am "fairly" sure you agree with me on this one salient point...

Google tells me Walter D. Wintle wrote that - credit to him! It also has a verse I never saw...

"If you think you’re outclassed, you are.

You’ve got to think high to rise.

You’ve got to be sure of yourself before

You can ever win a prize.

Life’s battles don’t always go

To the stronger or faster man,

But soon or late, the man who wins,

Is the one who thinks he can."

shit - just got goosebumps...

LET'S F GOOOOOO!!!

"If you think you're beaten, you are,

If you think you dare not, you don't.

If you like to win, but don't think you will,

It's almost certain you won't.

If you think you'll lose, you've lost,

For out in this world you'll find

Success begins with a person's will,

It's all in the state of mind"

- fuck knows who said that first, I just remembered it...

Being a gatekeeper to speech is something I would not relish myself. Which is why Nostr is great as there simply ARE no gatekeepers.

i DO wonder how true evil will be combatted on this network - e.g. the spread of pedophilia and that sort of gross things...
