Nostr just needs to be used for things other than X-cloning.
He still won't sleep with you, bro.
This is like how guys at the school newspaper would scatter pictures of their favorite cheerleader all over the articles, even when it seemed odd or out of place.

The 11th highlight be like
Like Huh? WTF? ROFLMAO
Sometimes I wonder if the people designing these algos have no pattern recognition, or something. Do they never look at the stuff they've built, to see what the output is?
Your highlights feed has a bad stutter, my bros.
And your trending feed contains stuff that isn't actually trending.
The ironic things is that everyone is already following them, so it's an entire feed that contains no new information for anyone.
Like... why???? To what purpose?
It makes it look like Nostr only has 3 npubs.
Primal's "Nostr Highlights" be like

This could be me, but we spent the money on a car.
Oh, or some solar panels and a real Kachelofen. 🤩
Every time I drove around, I would be thinking...
This could be a Bitcoin.
Or a purse of gold coins.
Or a downpayment on a place to live...
I miss my car, but if you gave me enough money to buy a car, I probably wouldn't spend it on a car.
After the car broke down, we realized that I need to travel to the office on 2 particular days and he shifted his appointments around, to go in on the other days. If either of us needs an additional office-day, we drop the other off at the train station.
And that was it. We could have done that the whole time, but we didn't think of it.
I now just do my shopping and appointments, and whatnot, on those two days or on the weekend.
Could we have 2 cars in the States? Probably. Does it matter to us? Not really.
A lot of things don't really matter.
Yeah, they're expats. They have an incentive to not be too critical.
Sort of the way tourists travel all around the world and say, "I would love to live here!" while they're being waited on, hand-and-foot. 🙄
Not really. I'm stacking Bitcoin and we're moving house and whatnot. Now I feel less economic pressure.
Cars are crazy expensive and it was getting old and something was always breaking. We actually had a €400 repair a week before the engine finally died. 🤦🏻♀️
But I had to reframe. I used to drive around a lot, for reasons that aren't apparent to me, now. Why was I driving around so much? Like... WHY?!!!
😂
Happiness is often more of a personal-situation thing, than something about the country.
I know people who moved away and stayed happily gone and others who also returned.
Moving across the border, like Denmark or Switzerland, seems to be more successful than moving to China or Brazil or whatever.
Like, my car died last month. I sort of miss it and sharing with my husband is annoying, but I've now rearranged my schedule, so that I don't need one.
So. Okay. No car. Oh well. No more expectation for having my own car, no disappointment.
I think it depends upon what your expectations are.
We've whittled ours down to "hang out with friends and family, have a warm house with clean water, go to church or for nature walks, read, eat potatoes, grill wurst, drink beer, wear wool sweaters", and we can do that here better than anywhere else.
If we have electricity and the Internet works, that's a nice bonus.
We tried moving to the USA, but returned. Germans often leave and return.
