happy government will steal your gold day

The number is unreliable in most apps, due to the nature of how pulling in the information works. For a more stable number try nostr.band or npub.world The latter will show a smaller number, but will likely include less bots.

Governance. 🤬

If 80-84k is the worst tariffs can do to bitcoin then I’m feeling quite bullish

Engaged in a little ‘Quantitative Easening’ - freshly minted (okay, painted) a new piece of Bitcoin art.

Title: "Dressed In Entropy".

The art supply isn’t capped, but the best ones are scarce. Stack some strokes before the next supply shock!😉

p.s. How safe is your private key?

i love nostr and i remain incredibly bullish on nostr, however these are the apps that i use daily that cause me frustrations. when i said this morning that i go from bullish to frustrated and back, these are the reasons:

nostrudel - i have to refresh or reload the app often to get profile names and photos to display. sometimes new notes don't load and i have to refresh or reload to display them.

chachi - chats just don't load most of the time. i have to nuke local storage and reload and refresh constantly to get new chat messages to display. this is tedious.

olas - i haven't used olas since the last update. i can't upload images. the images upload blank or never finish publishing. even the feed is inconsistent showing me mostly my images instead of images from people i follow.

pokey - mute thread is not consistent. sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.

citrine - no new events get published. i've been at 207,513 events for months. i think this happened whenever i tried to import all of my events from all of my relays. whenever i open citrine there's a notification that it's exporting events, but that never finishes. i think i need to cut my losses and my local data and nuke and start from scratch, but then ill lose all of my local data :(

wavlake - a popup window for amber is displayed every single song that i listen, because it's trying to set a status for the song im listening to. this continues even if you attempt to remember or save the setting.

primal - my NWC somehow stops working. i can generate a new string and apply it and have zaps work for a few days, but eventually it will stop working and ill have to disconnect and regenerate new NWC strings.

fountain - i just don't boost as often as i'd like, because having a separate wallet balance makes boosting harder. NWC is coming to fountain though. that will resolve this.

---

honestly the most stable and consistent apps that i use daily are #0xchat, #Amethyst and #Notedeck (jumble.social is great too, i just don't use it that often.)

---

looking at the larger picture, these are not showstopping issues, but mere annoyances along a bumpy path forward. and that's where we are moving. forward.

keep building.

I really love this piece.

Finally succumbed to watching Adolescence. Mostly due to suspicion from how much Starmer & practically every MP, Gov stooge and MSM platform has been promoting it. I watched it so you didn't have to. Spoiler alert.

They loosely mention Andrew Tate in reference to encouraging Incel culture early on. The female Police Officer bleakly confesses she doesn't want kids, male Officer says he doesn't think he's the right father for his son. Pretty much all kids are portrayed as feral mistakes and there's Pride flag lanyards on teachers. Was half expecting the white incel killer lad to be announced a born again Christian, Bitcoiner and it'd be a full house.

EO3 explores the principle murder motivation of Incel self loathing and anger - certainly the strongest episode.

E04 felt pointless, fatuous and contrived. A tonne of bad scouse pastiche in it too. One thing I did agree with was the father's flippant observation that him working 6am to 8pm probably negatively impacted his son's development. Fiat did this more than anything else but instead it seems to implicate online Incel subculture, kids on Instagram and emojis.

In totality, it's hard to see why this series has been so prominently promoted other than as a PsyOp for the Online Safety Act and possible future DID launch. Part of the Agenda to control access to online platforms on the basis of age. Problem, reaction, solution - DIDs.
