This city boy is going to learn how to raise a work horse or something.
Thank you, I just had finished a 40k audiobook and was inspired to write an exhortation.
In a way NOSTR fits perfectly in the new atomized paradigm. Because, in theory, you could have a relay or relays that are only frequented by a small subgroup.

I'm paraphrasing but, the idea was a church runs a relay, and the community connects to that relay. The church relay is the only thing aware of the wider NOSTR network.
It seems to me that development in social networks, in some ways, is mimicking the IRL social network.
IRL society is growing more atomized over time. In the digital realm, people are splitting off into different social networks.
NOSTR, X, Mastodon, Bluesky, Facebook, etc. It seems to me that the number of alternate social networks is contining to grow. When just a few short years ago it was only Facebook and Twitter.
How far away are we from 3D printing technology so we can print other peoples faces like in Mission: Impossible?
Logging into other peopls profiles with their pub key feels devious.
How many bits of entropy is considered good for passwords?
I've been review a few with my password manager and many have >100 bits. Many have worse than that.

Revolting as in: "Ew, that's revolting" or as in: "Take him to the guillotine"?
That's a good question. I can't say I have a good answer. But I do know that if I pray and listen intently, in time he will speak and guide me. Until then, each day I must continue to put one foot in front of the other. I must do my level best to be kind and loving to all. Lastly, I must continue to strive to be more like the many good examples that surround me.
I have never been good at that. But I know it is what I must do.

I bought a KVM. It's very imporant and I wanted to let you all know.
