Handyman engineer. I bounce from project to project, fixing problems that have fallen through the cracks, or have otherwise been left unresolved. I'm often called in to do the finishing touches, and bring 90% complete projects over the finish line. I'm good at making disparate systems talk to each other.

Last Notes npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW I think Elon Musk's annual travel accounts for about the same 6% of global emissions. We could just get rid of him and keep the cows. I mean, if someone told me we had a choice between Musk, and steaks, hamburger, tallow, and cowhide, I think that's a pretty easy choice. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW I mean, it's the most obvious meme in the world. What I want to know is who TF made the decision to put a Rosa Park ad banner on the back of a fucking bus? I feel like someone should be fired for this. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW There's no chance of securing the necessary support. Even if a miracle happened and 2/3 of both the House and Senate supported it, there's no way in hell 3/4 of the state legislatures would support it. Perhaps you're not fully aware of the cross-party animosity that exists in the United States. And an online security amendment would be highly contested, with push back from every privacy group, and every civil rights group in the country. It's just reasonable to be believe 3/4 of the states would go along with this. It's absurd proposition, really. Amendments aren't some easy thing that can happen with a smile and an "elevator speech". And for good reason. An amendment about a topic as controversial as online safety is not something that has a reasonable chance of passing Congress, let alone 3/4 of the states. You'd have a better chance of winning Powerball (odds 273,000,000:1) than getting an amendment passed. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW This kids dance moves are the best thing you'll see today. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Pardon my ignorance, but I don't get it. Is this going to interact with SMTP? Or is it just a mail system for within nostr? npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW May there always be someone watching your back... npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Nissanda? npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Yeah, I guess not. No part of their website led me to believe it was a wallet. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW I think maintaining a lightning wallet and a seperate on-chain wallet makes the most sense. You keep 50k sats in your lightning wallet, for zaps and lightning payments, and the rest you keep in your on-chain wallet. That's your savings. And you can move sats from your lightning wallet to your on-chain wallet when it has accumulated a certain amount. This way, you're keeping enough sats to zap others and pay any expenses you may have, while adding to your on-chain savings on a regular basis. And if you're making monthly purchases of bitcoin, those go to your on-chain wallet. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW I just found him! It's Joey Swoll! npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW This is irrelevant to what we're talking about. This is another standard conspiracy theorist tactic; pivoting and bringing up other events and circumstances. This is the height of intellectual bankruptcy. You're engaging in all sorts of fallacious reasoning in a desperate attempt to prove your preferred reality. I know you think you have it all figured out, but in your broken process all you've don't is come to the wrong conclusion. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Just stop. You're doing what every conspiracy theorist does. You're starting with your preferred reality, and fishing for nuggets of unrelated truth to disingenuously support the conspiracy theory. The fact that the government did something that partially reflects aspects of your conspiracy theory back in the 50s does not mean there is a mass government program involving thousands of planes on a daily basis going back decades to unendingly spray the population with "chemicals". npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Also, the flooding in Dubai was largely the result of atmospheric warming following the general trend of warming. While cloud seeding was employed in Dubai, its effect on water retention in the clouds would have very minor, and not able to cause a flood. This is another case of people who don't understand what they're talking about taking a story containing a nugget of truth, and exaggerating its impact while conflating it with a conspiracy theory they're looking to prove. Chemtrails aren't real, and cloud seeding doesn't have anything to do with it. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Cloud seeding isn't new and it isn't a secret. It also isn't happening all over the place. It's an experimental process for increasing rainfall in areas where drought is negatively impacting crop harvests. It also doesn't generate the contrails that chemtrail conspiracy theorists insist are really the government spraying chemicals into the population. You're conflating two completely things. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Wall Street analyst Tom Lee, who predicted the S&P 500's rise by exactly 24% in 2023, #Bitcoin's 2024 rise to $100k by the end of 2024—both claims which came to fruition—is now predicting Bitcoin's climb to $250k in 2025! This is an exciting prediction. Keep investing, keep stacking! The Lamborghinis are coming! npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Is anyone else having issues with relay.0xchat.com? I haven't been able to connect for like two days, and it's not returning any information on legacy.nostr.watch. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Those are some cute kitties! They look like good buddies! npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW No. The "atmosphere" on Mars is like 100 times thinner than on earth, and couldn't be harvested from the surface of the planet. So, now you'd some machine that is able to harvest enough co2 from the thin atmosphere to generate enough oxygen for a group of humans to breathe indefinitely. It's not a realistic solution. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Where is this CO² coming from? There's absolutely no atmosphere on Mars. That means no CO². npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Lol I thought you said you used iOS but I just looked again and it was someone else who was asking the same thing as you. My mistake. Clear out your 0xChat, delete your account so it's like new. Then open it fresh and there should be an option to use Amber instead of your nsec when you first register. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Damn... Namecheap wants $17,837 for slcw.com but it renews for $16.98/yr? WTF is up with that? But slcw.me is available for $2.98. I'll never understand domain name pricing. I remember back in the day when you could register all the domains you wanted for free. Just another example of my lack for foresight 🤷♂️ npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Only four Pac-Man ghosts have names; Blinky, Pinky, Inky, and Clyde. I think the others are like movie extras. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Obergruppenführer #Musk has decided that there will be no more #links in #Tweets. He begrudgingly scolds that if people want links, they may include them in replies. Anyone who disagrees will be sent to the camps. #blog npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW minibits.cash/Bitcoin is a reliable and stable mint that's very popular. It's the default mint in many ecash wallets. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Do you know if this also includes wallets backed by NWC? npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW I don't trust critic reviews. But I do trust the totality of movie goer reviews. I look at them all and judge based on the majority sentiment. Historically, that's been pretty accurate. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW I always wait for reviews before I'll commit to seeing a new movie. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Sane people don't like basking in a cesspool of disinformation and hate. It makes sense to me that all these people and organizations are fleeing to other platforms. I don't think it's about moving to Bluesky so much as it's about getting away from Twitter. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW No, that's monthly. When you first sign up, they charge you 10.5k sats for each of the first 3 months. Starting on your 4th month, the fee goes up to 21k sats per month. I used Alby for 2 months, but decided I wasn't transacting enough volume to justify the coming fee increase. If it stayed at 10.5k sats, I'd probably still be an Alby user, but I just couldn't justify 21k sats per month. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Coinos does ecash. Right now, you can mint ecash from your wallet, but you can only redeem tokens minted from the Coinos mint. The ability to redeem tokens from outside mints is coming soon. It's only really missing on-chain, and the devs seem open to suggestions, so maybe we could lobby them for on-chain support. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Classic! npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Why are you using Amethyst's internal tor engine instead of Orbot via SOCKS5 proxy? npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW /lottery 100 npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW /lottery 100 npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Red meat makes me feral. I'd be crouched in the corner with all that, snarling and snapping at anyone who got too close. 🥩 npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW So what are the kids going to eat? 😜 npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Make sure you remove the "nostr:" from the beginning of the note ID so that it starts with "nevent". npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW What's also weird is that I try to zap you 21 sats, but it only zaps you 2 sats. Nostr is haunted today. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW My position is exhaustively laid out in the thread. I'm not repeating myself again. . npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW FFS... Read the thread before posting. I'm not arguing in support of what happened. I'm just stating what happened. 🙄 npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW I've seen devs get defensive and hostile before when their work is criticized. I think it's a natural impulse when you feel like something you've put your time and energy into is being attacked. But you've got to find a way to keep your game face on so you done end up alienating the people you want to accept your work. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW I think that's circumstantial, not intentional. And their abrasiveness is going to encourage people to take an ideological stand against them. It feels very counterproductive to me. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW They come across as bitter, defensive, and arrogant. If they want people to try or use their product, they should get someone who knows how to talk to people to make announcements, and answer questions. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Typjng people's pubkeys to navigate to a website is not convenient. Will be some shortened version of the pubkey? Or maybe using NIP-05 addresses? npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Ok, but the reality is that the majority of users will have to provide additional funding if they want to compete. The person who is able to successfully play and win using only their entry fee, and referral bonuses is the exception, not the rule. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW It worked! Notification came through immediately. Perhaps you want inciude some sort of instructional statement that you have at least one open public relay as your inbox, and configure Pokey to use that relay. Because when I just let Pokey use the default config of using all detected inbox servers, it didn't work even though one was an open public relay. It was only when I configured Pokey to only use the public relay that it worked properly. This obviously only applies to users with paid relays configured for their inbox. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Perhaps you could have some sort of intro statement letting potential users know that additional funding throughout the game is necessary to have a chance of winning. That should be disclosed. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Could you send a reply message? npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW I'm going set an open relay for my inbox, and temporarily set Pokey to only read that relay. That will determine whether the paid relays are the issue. I'll update you. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Do you think the fact that I'm using paid relays might be to blame? npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW That's because people don't understand the investment that's needed throughout the game to be competitive. They see a cheap way to play a game and win prizes, so they join. It's not until after the game has gone on that they realize that additional, ongoing funds are needed to have any chance of winning, or placing in the money. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Yes. Someone replies to one of my notes. I don't get a notification. I reply to their reply, and the moment I post my reply I get the notification for their original reply. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Yeah, 13 bucks a month for access to a relay is pretty steep. I already pay 12k sats for my personal relay. If it's a one-time fee I can justify it, but my subscription to the nostr.wine DM Inbox relay is a monthly 2500 so I wanna be sure before I make a payment. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW 2100 sats is like a $1.25. I don't think that's excessive. Especially if that value is credited in gSats so users have a starting bank to fund their initial equipment purchases. And it seeds the pot. Maybe make it an even 2000 sats, but I wouldn't go any lower. If users can't afford 2000 sats, how are they going to be able to afford the equipment purchases necessary to be competitive? If 2000 sats is a hardship, those users are better off not playing. Make entry 2000 sats, and credit their starting balance with 2000 gSats. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Is the 18,888 sat admission fee for nostr.wine a one-time fee, or a recurring monthly subscription? I didn't see anything on their site to indicate one way or the other. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW I've replaced almost all of my general relays with wot relays from the list provided by @nprofile…8grv. So far, so good! My feed is full of solid content from real people, and I haven't seen a single piece of spam or other low-grade notes. I was worried that I wouldn't qualify to use some of them, but apparently I've got enough good people in my network to grant me admission. WoT is a great way to ensure a quality feed without any of the bullshit. And most of them are NIP-42 so they can be used as private home relays. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW That's true. Although it depends on how willing members of the other side are to negotiate, and work across the aisle. In a perfect world, our elected leaders would prioritize getting things done for the American people over the tribal partisanship. But as has become apparent, we definitely do not live in a perfect world. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW The American People: 4 more years of crazed division npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW 3rd parties absolutely need to build their support and infrastructure through local and state elections before they can expect to be able to compete, and be a viable choice. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Well, typically the winning candidate has the unified support of their party. So, if a Republican president wins, and Republicans control Congress, then the president basically has the support of Congress. It gets a little trickier when the opposing party controls Congress because then you have a divided government. Some people prefer a divided government because they believe the controlling opposition provides a check on the power of the president. Others are opposed to divided government because it makes executing the president's agenda more difficult, which is either good or bad depending on whether your party is in control of Congress. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Remember when all the hoopla about politics ended days after the election? Those were the days... It's now a 24x7x365 grievance and hatred industry based on keeping the American people furious, and perpetually engaged in the manufactured division. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW By and large, people are lazy and don't want anything more than a choice between A and B, despite the regular complaining about the fact that we only have two viable parties. In all this time, not one 3rd party has done the work to elect local and state candidates, and build the necessary infrastructure to plausibly compete. They always pop up every four years to run a promotional candidate with no chance of succeeding without having done any of the ground work to make their party viable. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Maybe, but his sentence was within the legally established guidelines. Any anger about his circumstances should be directed at the judge in his case, and not any greater notion of "them". He was convicted by a jury of his peers after a trial where he was represented by competent counsel, and the judge made the decision to sentence him to life based largely on the evidence presented at the trial supporting the prosecutor's contention that he attempted to contract the killing of 5 people. Then, he lost his appeals to overturn the conviction with the appeals court again pointing to the evidence that he attempted to hire a hit man to murder 5 people. On paper, his sentence may be seen as overly harsh, and I am one of the people who believe it was an excessive sentence, but he was most definitely afforded due process within the bounds of the law. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW That's funny, but it's important to keep in mind that, despite the incessant ranting about voter fraud by Republicans, voter fraud—which is exceedingly rare—is almost entirely carried out by Republicans. It's another case of, "accuse yout enemies of that which you are guilty", and repeat it often so that that false notion is perceived as truth by the public. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW * The first part about where your notes are published should say "public OUTBOX relays", not public INBOX relays. Sorry for the mistype. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW It's a little confusing. I sat down with pen and paper and made a diagram to help me visualize and understand it. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Did it generate one of those cool whale-zap notes? I always wanted to be whale zapped. 😔🐳 npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW I that case, I don't think Citrine comes into play. Pokey is generating notifications from your configured public and private relays. If you just have Citrine configured as a local relay, I believe it only records your published notes and replies, as if it was another public outbox relay. I don't believe it also acts as a public inbox. Also, unless you've opened up a port so that it could be accessed from outside of your device, I don't believe it would be able to act as an inbox relay, because inboxes need to be able to be accessed and written to from the internet. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Are you using Citrine as one of your public inbox relays? npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW There was a review site that did comprehensive comparisons of all the different hardware wallets, but I can't remember the URL, and I don't I bookmarked it. I'm going to dig through my browser history and see if I can find it. It wasn't that long ago, so maybe it's still in my history 🤷♂️ npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW It's weird, isn't it? Like, what's happening behind the scenes that could explain that? Does something happen with the status of a reply once you reply to it that alerts Pokey that it's a new event that needs to generate a notification? I always get the craziest bugs! Lol and I feel bad about bothering the devs, but at the same time I know devs wants their projects to work properly, so it's important to report issues like this. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Hey @nprofile…vh28... I think I mentioned that the Amber authentication bug in Pokey has been successfully resolved, and its properly authenticating now with the release of v0.0.5-alpha. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW I'm with you. It seems like it's become a nonstop, all-the-time thing. It used to be that nobody thought about politics until a month before an election. Some people who are die hard politics fanatics did, but the average person didn't really think about it, and it wasn't in your face every day. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW I haven't zapped any large amounts. My default zap is 21 sats, and my max zap is 100 sats. If I had a specific, compelling reason to zap more (ie. lost a bet, making a purchase of some sort, etc), I definitely would, but for the purpose of rewarding quality content, I've found that the 21-100 sat range is just fine. The lower amounts allow me to reward more notes than if I was zapping 500+ zaps. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW I don't think so. I've never come across an account for them. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW That's crazy if that info isn't available in the app. That's pretty standard stuff. Maybe a good reason to switch to another wallet? npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW I can't help but speculate. It's in my nature. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Given that many bitcoiners believe Trump would be good for bitcoin while Harris would not, pre-election dumping may indicate a belief that Harris will win, resulting in the price dropping. The sell-off could be an attempt lock in profits before the anticipated price drop associated with5a Harris victory. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW @nprofile…deau will be thrilled that he has another task! npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW In Amethyst, do you know what relay catagories these wot relays should be used for? Are they supposed to be your public inbox/outbox relays? Or do they go in the general relay section? npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Pull2Refresh is the one feature that's sorely missing. I keep instinctively swiping down to refresh, but no joy! Lol Hopefully it will be added in a future relase. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Ok, so I'm not getting notifications on DMs. I've tried removing my Pokey permissions from Amber and starting fresh, but no matter what I do I'm unable to get DM notifications. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW The latest version of #Pokey is using Amber, presumably for auth to DM inboxes. It correctly calls Amber, and starts the service after I've authenticated, but it's also throwing up a toast message saying "Amber not installed". @nprofile…vh28 any idea of what this problem is? It just an errant toast message? Or do you think there's something actually going wrong? npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW What are some good ways to purchase Bitcoin without any of that KYC bullshit? Maybe a private transaction exchange coin for fiat in the form of Zelle, Cash App, Venmo, PayPal? npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW That's fun, little PWA. I did some test transactions and it worked without any issues. I probably won't actively use it because it's so early in development, and I'm already using Minibits Wallet, but I'm keeping it bookmarked for future use. I love the retro UX! It reminds me of when I learned C on an IBM AS/400! npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Not really. All of the evidence supports evolution, and none of the evidence supports creation. Creation has nothing but assertion without empirical basis. It's possible that the initial spark of life was the result of some creation process, but the entire body of evidence supports evolution as the process by which the most rudimentary form of life became the most complex. And in that body of evidence is the probability that life began out of some natural process, and not some act of divine creation. These are not equally likely explanations. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW It's a purely subjective evaluation. A lot of people love those Yeezy shoes, but I think they're hideous. My view is but that of one man. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW UPDATE: I contacted @nprofile…3xgh support and they took a look at my OPML file and discovered a bug in how they were processing it. A fix will be included in the next release! Thanks Fountain, for responding so quickly and diagnosing the problem. I look forward to importing all my titles as soon as the next version is released! npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW I've been playing with @nprofile…trej and it's a really cool messaging app. Unlike some other nostr messengers, Keychat isn't yet another nostr client with messaging capabilities. It's a purpose-built, dedicated, private messaging app built on the Signal protocol, and nostr to provide a seamless, secure messaging experience. It also has integrated Cashu (eCash) for sending and receiving sats in-app. I highly recommend downloading it and giving it a try! npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW I installed Keychat but I don't know anyone else with it so I have nobody to Keychat with. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW If you're using Amethyst, you set Citrine as your local relay and it will save a local copy of all your notes and replies. Set it as your private home relay and it will save your drafts and app settings. Set it as a search relay and you'll be able to search all your saved content. It's an invaluable tool that every Android user should run. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW As soon as you allow yourself to believe you are immune to the powers of persuasion and propaganda, you make yourself more open to their effects. As human beings, we are inherently subject to these tactics, and none of us are immune. Vigilance, and the constant application of critical thinking are essential to minimize the impact, and that includes honestly acknowledging our susceptibility. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Well, there's no direct evidence for that, but there's certainly a boatload of suggestive evidence that supports that idea. Just as there's no direct evidence of your belief that the two assassination attempts were manufactured, but some suggestive evidence that supports that idea. You can't pick and choose when you want evidence. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW I read some of his books about 15 years ago. I thought he was a crazy motherfucker back then, but I thought he was sincere in his beliefs. But I came to believe he's just another grifter who's selling a story. I never bought into his claims, but I at least had some respect for him when I thought he believed what he was saying. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW I think he's a delusional crackpot of the highest order. npub1vkgj57k30l2u7wave6t4nua75wjylx3nju6qu4vu7pneghwx8zlsf7q4uq SLCW Why do you need an fdroid version? You can get the straight version from the repo. There's no practical difference.
