Is there a bitcoin “payment processor” that integrates with Strike (or something else), so that it creates an opportunity immediately to buy bitcoin in the amount that was just spent? A seamless “buy and replace” experience. #asknostr

I use Raycast for all sorts of things, window management is just one thing it makes fast and convenient

I'm spitballing here, and I'm probably going to get some pushback on this one (when did that ever stop me?) but here goes.

Sometimes I wonder if anti-American forces such as the Russians, Chinese, North Koreans, etc, have been hard at work at ideological subversion (remember Yuri Bezmenov?) Actually, I don't wonder that, I presume it. America can't be (or certainly couldn't in the past) directly attacked militarily, but can be corroded from within given how much freedom America has... that freedom can be used against them. So I don't wonder if it is happening, I wonder which ideas were seeded and encouraged by America's enemies.

Here is a list of possibles (you'll be able to guess at which ones I am expecting pushback on)

1. Convincing Americans to give the COVID vaccine to children (no other Western nation does that)

2. Convincing Americans to have sympathy for criminals to such a degree that they let them out of jail, or refuse to prosecute crimes

3. Funding the campaigns of candidates with extreme views

4. Convincing Americans to have such sympathy for migrants that they let them flow in en masse without controls, allowing in the spies and plants of the enemy.

5. Convincing Americans that red meat is good for them, so they die young of heart attacks and cancers, killing thousands per day without a shot fired.

6. Stirring up a race war

7. Stirring up extreme political division

8. Convincing Americans that Trump is worse than nuclear war, the Earth spiraling into the sun, Hillary Clinton eating babies, or whatever.

9. Convincing other Americans to support Trump with all their hearts.

10. Convincing the education system to stop educating people

11. Convincing them to redirect the efforts towards stopping climate change

12. Convincing them to be anti-war, so that America has less ability to exert power overseas

13. Convincing Americans that all vaccines are harmful, so they stop taking them and diseases spread again, killing thousands without firing a shot.

14. Convincing them not to have kids because humans are a cancer on Earth, so that their population weakens and dwindles.

OK. So I included (5) which I expect pushback on. I also included (11) and (12) which implicate me as the patsy. I try to be fair.

Do you presume that it’s only foreign governments doing this? I would presume the same for most other large entities that have a stake in a particular outcome. Who has more incentive to delude Americans about giving the Covid vax to children—Russia or the manufacturers.

You’re not explicitly saying this but the way you laid these out makes me wonder if you think red meat causes cancer and heart attacks and that the anti-war stance is wrong.

Could you share some details on the ducting products you used? Are you going to make a black box or something else to quiet it?

Is there a list of micro app ideas somewhere?

I’m imagining a public roadmap interface like if Nostr was the “product” and micro apps were “features”.

It would be nice to see what are ideas in backlog, what are micro apps already in progress, and micro apps already in production.

I think those are exactly the right questions.

I think if the ad model is transparent, and there is an effort to present quality companies and maintain a quality experience, and the ads themselves don’t rely on manipulative fear/anger based triggers… Then I would be all for this model.

It doesn’t have to be perfect, but I think I’d know if the effort was genuine.

Is it trivial to update to a new NIP-05 after you've used a different NIP-05 domain for awhile? Could it mess up people trying to tag you? #asknostr

Revamp B for everything except the font-size and line-height. I love the readability of the current font-size and line-height.

Don't like the container for D or the tiny avatars in C.

You know it does 😝

Satellite.earth is gonna be great for bringing in different niches.

Primal does a pretty good job of promoting searches by #.

Nostr chats on websites that bring in messages for a particular # will help.

Niche specific apps will help, like the music apps being built right now wavlake and zapstr.live, and the streaming app zap.stream.

Real bitcoiners talk about bitcoin even when they’re not talking about bitcoin.
