Did you feel ill afterwards? 3lbs is so much food.

I don’t understand how people eat one meal a day. How are you able to consume enough calories in one meal and not feel thoroughly uncomfortable afterwards?

Not my chair not my problem

If ya know ya know 🤣

Games have a concept of "incremental discovery. Where higher level of complexity is revealed over time. I wish social profiles had a concept like this, where I have normie posts on my main feed, but I also have obscure posts that I don't want others to see unless they dig more into subtopics I post, a kind of

"subprofile". I have lots of posts on linux I would like to post but I know most of my follows might not care for it. It would be nice if you could go to someones profile and subscribe to their “subfeeds”.

Awesome. The Governor and legislators stood together to announce their plans to gut the Freedom of Information Act. They don’t like so many questions being asked about how they propose laws and spend taxpayer money.

Smells 💩

Damn. You're moving up in the Nostr world if scammers are already going after you. Congratulations 🔥🔥🔥🤣🤣😁

It’s not a particularly complex equation. It’s just a SHA256 hash. You can do that with any computer in a fraction of a second. What makes it hard to mine is that the hash number, which can’t be predicted, needs to be sufficiently low. So it’s like a random lottery.

If my math is correct, it currently requires an average of 6x10^22 attempts to find one.

If you’re asking if the calculations have any other intrinsic value (other than securing the network), such as protein folding, finding high prime numbers, or analyzing SETI signals, the answer is no.

Experimenting with midjourney prompts for indie gamedev asset generation. This was the hardest part of indie dev, makes me want to get into gamedev again 👀

Good morning #nostr. ☀️🫂

On September 11, 2001, I was living less than 7 miles away from the site of the horrifying attacks on the World Trade Center. I didn’t see or hear it happen, and wasn’t watching TV that morning, so I was informed by a phone call. One of the two planes had flown directly over my home and I didn’t even realize it.

I spent the next month in a state of shock and confusion, glued to cable news, radio, and the internet. Real-time online news at the time barely existed, so information moved at a different speed than it does today. The 24-hour networks didn’t know how to respond, so they just kept airing the same clips over and over again with non commercial breaks. There was so much bad reporting, and people taking advantage of the situation to intentionally spread misinformation and disinformation. Our governments were complicit in this, of course. We saw it happen right before our eyes just a couple of years later with the relentless march to invade an uninvolved country with an entirely fabricated reason. And yet we somehow accepted it as a nation and as a world, because we were conditioned to out of fear. I couldn’t believe others didn’t see what I saw, and realized just how easily people around me had been manipulated.

We were constantly reminded to say, “Never forget.” to honor those who died in the attacks on our country. I won’t, and I can’t. I lived through it all. But we should also #NeverForget how 22 years ago, we gave up our privacy and civil liberties, started a generation-long war, and accepted an ever-expanding surveillance state that was once only the domain of dystopian science fiction.

Finally, in this timeline, the technologies and tools have been built and handed to us that could begin to turn the tide against all of these abuses of power. I only hope enough of us use them to matter.
