hah.

i always go for the raw, simple products whenever i can find them.

complicated stuff usually is allergenic, or straight up toxic.

always pisses me off when i see perfume and EDTA in soaps. EDTA does not belong in anything you put on your skin ffs...

it is retarded that markdown is still not the standard note format.

also, i have been saying since nostr:nprofile1qqsw4v882mfjhq9u63j08kzyhqzqxqc8tgf740p4nxnk9jdv02u37ncpr9mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuumwdae8gtnnda3kjctv9uq35amnwvaz7tmsw4exzanfv3sjumn0wd68ytnvv9hxgtcpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsem3d22 asserted that they are "posts" that nostr resembles a mailing list system and thus they are posts. posts.

i'd love to help with something like this but i'd guess there is gonna be a lot of to and fro in deciding where they are going to move to next.

email is a real pig of a protocol and it is time to stop using it. the whole thing is practically monopolised by Google and Microsoft now.

i think as far as the requirements for the bitcoin discussion that the main thing is going to be filters with moderated membership lists, because it can't be turning into a spam fest, even if people do reply randomly to them they need to only show on topic and relevant content and that means a little council of gatekeepers, no different from now, just that this isn't something any nostr client has yet.

i forgot "add the tallow" part. probably also the "heat tallow until it melts" part as well.

why expensive to make???

it would be for me rn because there's nowhere near me selling tallow. in the UK it was cheaper than butter.

i mean, you can literally make it by measuring out your distilled/spring water, adding lye, mixing it in and it gets nice and hot, then wizz the hell out of it with a stick blender for a bit (about half an hour) until it traces and thickens up, then pour into molds and 3-5 days later, et voila.

i have seen some ridiculously expensive tallow out there though. lamb tallow 500ml AUD$23. but everything is expensive in that shithole country.

making soap bars is really easy. just make sure you undershoot on the hydroxide and it will come out great.

*ettabytes

haha, the new labels on bronners soaps aren't as cool as the original either. whoever is running the place now is retarded.

i would love to have soap made from it. just plain simple soap, nothing but sodium hydroxide, water and tallow, dried into a nice hard block.

very often you can find "laundry soap" in the balkans that is made from pig fat. lard just doesn't have the wax-like stearates in it, and these are key to improving skin condition.

cacao fat is also similar to tallow, it would make fantastic soap bars as well.

yeah, proper food helps a lot.

seed oils for sure make your hair more icky. coconut oil, butter and beef fat definitely help your skin and hair look better.

also not to forget, zinc is vital for hair and nails, and vitamin C for skin.

democracy is just a slow ride to the gulag

they had me at "mac daddy" lol

peak carbon neutral is fermentation of the entire human race in the bottom of a pit.

oof... got up at 6, walked to the nearest pingo doce supermarket for my milk supply, got 18x1L half fat (1% $*&%^&%$&ing lame) and 3x 250g butter, probably skimmed off the very same milk, trotted back the 5.6km or so walk back to home, mixed up one batch of fatty milk at 38'C with 125g butter mixed, prepped up another 3L of spare plastic bottles to ferment the greasy milk in, and ate about 700ml of yoghurt with shredded pineapple.

now sitting down finally all the work done, 8 hours later, sipping cacao and milk and i need a nap.

werk will resume this afternoon after i zone out with the sun shining on me belly full and whole body exhausted from a 5.6km ruck with about 20kg weight.

probably next time again will be 18L plus 750g of butter but i think week after next i will shoot for a 24kg load.

i always used to think, in Stalker, that the ~50kg weight limit was too low but honestly, if i can ever carry that much on my back i'm gonna be ecstatic. i guess i'll be half way to that goal in a month's time, for the distance of ~5km.

rucking is the best, and milk is the best, but dammit, it needs more fat.

next time i use up a 5L bottle of spring water it's becoming my main fermenter for yoghurt, so i can mix in the butter, and shake the living bejesus out of it until it doesn't want to immediately separate.

i'm literally short on calories on 3L of yoghurt a day. this butter is needed.

20 years ago there was a huge kerfuffle about intel putting UUIDs into their processors, and now this...

identify who you are from the passport/police records. forge an NFC scannable passport. leave them conveniently deliberately on a crime scene to cause you trouble.

i've been using just soap since like 20 years. the original dr bronners was good but they don't make it the same anymore, too much coconut not enough olive oil.

taproot addresses are kinda encrypted by themselves, and you could easily make a scheme with a mathematical sequence for subkeys. your private key is the root, it is hashed with nothing extra, and then each subsequent key could literally be just another 4 byte sequence number and it's virtually as good as a HD key, and it'd be easy to specify them with a decent taproot key interface.

my project https://github.com/mleku/signr has a method for encrypting private keys that uses an argon2 encryption with very high memory/parallelism parameters, it takes about 1 second to generate the encryption cipher that is XORed over the encrypted key (32 bytes).

it also includes an implementation for making taproot keys in it, which could be extended with a scheme like i mentioned above.

probably could raise the parameter settings but to make it parameterisable i'd have to add a 33rd byte to signify some scale of work requirement for it.

i was just reading the other day also that 4 distinct words makes enough entropy to be virtually impossible to guess. my algorithm doesn't make any stupid requirements about spaces or needing to have this kind of character or that, so it could be literally like the last 4 words of this sentence. hell, most people can probably easily remember twice that long.

ah you beat me to it

the video is so awesome.
