And considering that women don't drink a lot there, and children don't drink at all, that's an incredible amount of beer for some men to bring that average up so high.

I am the patriarchy of my family.
Many will balk at that statement, but my wife and daughters love and respect me enough to gladly follow my lead.
That does not mean I am perfect, as I often make mistakes. That is why I LISTEN to them and take their perspectives into account.
But at the end of the day, whether I go with their suggestion or not, the responsibility for the outcome rests on my shoulders, as God intended.

This is Karlštejn Castle, built in the 14th century by King Charles IV of Bohemia, who became the Holy Roman Emperor. For a time it housed the Imperial Crown Jewels.
The castle has been beautifully preserved in a form similar to how it would have looked in the medieval period when it was built.

This statue comemorates Jan Hus, a Bohemian proto-reformer of the 14th century who preached in Czech at Bethlehem Chapel in Prague. This was unheard of during his day, when mass was held only in Latin, which most common men did not understand.
He was burned at the stake in Constance, Germany on July 6th, 1415 because, inspired by John Wycliffe, he wanted the Bible to be available in the language of the people and because he preached against indulgences, and other errors and corruption in the church.
The inscription on the base of the statue says, "For the Truth."

If clients that use outbox are trying to find your notes, they won't know what relays to look on if your relay list cannot be found.
If you want your notes to be seen by those following you, you should publish a relay list (kind 10002) from most any Nostr client.

2026-07-05 00:40:30 UTC

I wouldn't recommend running NostrRSrelay on Umbrel as a public relay. It's intended to just be a private backup of your notes for a reason.
The GUI is on the same port as the relay, so if you expose the relay at 'wss://relay.yourdomain.com' the GUI will be accessible at the same domain, but 'https://', and NostrRSrelay has no authentication required to access the GUI.
Now, there's not much that someone can do from that GUI, but they can change out the npub whose notes are automatically backed up to any other npub... Then you end up with content hosted on your relay that you did not intend nor want.

Nostr Devs,
I chatted with @npub15yp…mpcx about this last night, as I have been testing out his new client #Circl, but it bears notice of any client dev that supports lists of various kinds (relay lists, mute lists, bookmark lists, etc) in their client, or who plan to in the future.
NIP-51 states that these lists "can be public or private" and therefore may have plain text entries, or encrypted entries in the "content" field. It does not specify what list kinds may or may not have encrypted data. Therefore, your client should be able to handle encrypted data in almost any of them.
NIP-51 also says, "When new items are added to an existing list, clients SHOULD append them to the end of the list..." Appending only adds information, it does not remove any information that is already there. Adding an item to a list should never result in the loss of existing entries from that list, encrypted or otherwise.
If Nostr clients fail in this, Nostr interoperability and user experience suffers.
Here is what I would suggest:
Minimum: Your client should not overwrite encrypted data when adding a new entry to a list that has an encrypted payload in the "content" field. Leave that field there and as is if your client isn't set up to utilize it.
Better: At least decrypt and display the data to the user, so they don't think their whole mute list has been nuked because your client doesn't display the encrypted entries. And when your client is used to add new entries to the list, leave the encrypted data alone. Just add a new plain-text entry if you don't want to support adding encrypted entries to lists.
Best: Not only display the encrypted entries to the user, but indicate in the UI which entries are public and which are private. When the user wants to add a new entry, present them the option to add it as public or private.
There are certain lists this does not apply to, because their content has to be public for the list to function, such as kinds 10001, 10002, or 10050. However, the vast majority of other list types often do contain encrypted entries, especially since one of the most popular Nostr clients (Amethyst) is encrypting a lot of these lists by default.
The most common way I have personally had list entries get nuked lately is from clients that did know what to do with encrypted entries in the "content" field of my mute list, my favorite relays list, and my search relays list. Things like this are what make many people feel like Nostr is broken, when it's just that client devs aren't paying attention to NIP-51 when they implement lists.

I am sure @npub1syj…f6wl would appreciate that. He mentioned that he'd like to have it, but has been putting it off.
If you do, can you build in a retention window where it will delete notes older than X days, where the user can set the timeframe, and also the ability to select npubs that it never deletes notes for.

Oh, I know that part. My question was about your notes that DON'T tag me that have been showing up in my WoT relay.
Turns out, they're getting blasted there by nostr.land's event cannon feature.

Yes, the content is what matters, but in this case the question is what word was used in the original document. The word Jefferson used was "unalienable."

I want, but I probably won't have a chance to fiddle with that for a while.

Ok, that makes a whole lot of sense now. Thanks!

For instance, here's a reply you made to @npub12r0…9qrx earlier that I have on my WoT relay. But @npub12r0…9qrx doesn't use my relay as an inbox relay, and I am not p-tagged in your reply.
But... @npub12r0…9qrx DOES use nostr.land, and the event cannon may be blasting to me.

Yeah, replies with me tagged, that makes sense. It's the kind 1 notes, or replies to other people who don't have my relay listed as an inbox that make less sense why I am getting them.

I do have it set as an inbox relay, but that would only explain notes where you've tagged me ending up on it. I have regular kind 1 notes from you without me tagged.
I bet it is the nostr.land blaster. @npub1226…grkj how does nostr.land determine where the event cannon will blast notes? Is my WoT relay one of the relays it blasts to?
