Last Notes npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Zzmorninggg!! Happy National Red Wine Day! npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Such an extraordinary show today. Absolute insaneeee!! #nevent1q…3ldj npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Thank you for your service npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Oo. When abouts? Are you happy to share so we can wish you a happy birthday or would you prefer to assign yourself a Nostr birthday? npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Forgot to mention that PLA is usually made from eco-friendly plant based materials like cornstarch or sugarcane. Supposedly its biodegradable but only under industrial conditions and even then it requires very high temperatures and around a week to decompose npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Yeah its PLA (plastic) mixed with finely ground wood fibres. So its not pure wood but it gives it a woody appearance/ scent npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio I'm putting myself at serious risk by broadcasting this note but I feel it is the only way to fight against Big Hardware Wallet. Due to the recent incident with ColdCard, Trezor and every other company under the sun stealing your crypto and selling your personal information many have turned to cereal boxes to write down their BIP39 secrets. However this comes with a risk! Many complacent wallet holders have been buying these with credit cards, contactless cards or loyalty cards, revealing to Big Tesco who really owns your crypto. Attempts to sell Kellogs boxes and other branded cereals for cash in alleyways have been stopped by police. Insiders at Kellogs even tell me export controls have been put on production and gag orders in place. Recycling centres have halted operations to retrieve and seize as many cereal boxes as possible. We must fight back!! I've been working with an insider (named Agent Special K to protect their identity) at an unnamed tasty cereal company. We've managed to obtain top secret instructions on how to construct the cereal boxes. Anonymous cereal boxes will be available via BTC or Monero payments from next week. More details to follow. Keep safe folkes 👊🤘 https://blossom.primal.net/da88f487aeb87166b5344a25a6728435ae1035a871f3d8d9959dd2a0d67ccf8d.jpg npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio You can self host a relay which goes off and makes all the requests and collates events from other relays and sends them to your device directly so its doing less work. I believe Haven can do this but possibly worth asking around if you're interested npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio So lucky to live where I do! Had a great time watching the solar eclipse last night https://blossom.primal.net/8828ef46c72e72f021ae79a5d0a23580543eb3ea1e6c2846531e2bce38994add.jpg npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Love a live kernel patch 😂 npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio I prefer to go to a field and record sheep or better yet just use the barcode off the back of a pack of cereal. Hmm speaking of cereal we could just use serial numbers. Maybe that's where the term serial number comes from 🤔 I'll be right back I need to go and find the serial number of my BTC hardware wallet. I'll publish it to Nostr afterwards npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Genius!! npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio I tend to just publish my private wallet key to Nostr. I see it as the open source way to do crypto as the private key is open source. This way if there's any issues with my wallet members of the friendly community can help me npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Stop spoiling the future. It's only a couple of years away xD npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio As a wise Setto once said, "Home is not a place, it's a public key" npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio @nprofile…2ka6 my favourite is 418 where the server decides it has turned into a teapot! npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Be careful with those blue pills. Someone I know overdosed on Viagra and they couldn't get the coffin closed!! npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Glad it's working. Turns out Alby made a mistake with my lightning address callback so my custom address ([email protected] ) wasn't working but it's sorted now npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Can someone comment down below and I'll zap you. Can you then zap me something back so I can check my zaps are working npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio I think we should have stuck to kicking the ball. It was working much better for us npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio GLM-5.2 is cheaper and smarter. You could make a Nostr app for like $30. Just use Open Router with your favourite harness npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Thank you, I see. So in theory Amethyst could support stories. Very cool! npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Does Nostr have any sort of protocol for disappearing notes or messages? It would be cool to be able to post what I've been up to without it being forever available to everyone. It's been a while since I've looked through the Nostr protocol but I don't remember seeing anything like this. It would be cool to have something similar to the concept of stories or disappearing posts like you see on other social media platforms. I understand not all relays and clients will necessarily respect it, just as some don't respect or recieve deletion requests but most do and therefore its good enough in my eyes #nostr #nostrprotocol #asknostr npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Lol, I did wonder xD npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Ah makes sense. Can you verify with W Social? npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio How strange. My emails from Revolut said everything is automatic and I don't need to do anything. You must just be extra special npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Love the episode title \o/ Great show as always, how many listeners did you get in the end? There were definitely over a thousand on the view count at one point. Must be a good setup you have going to handle that kind of traffic, props to you npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Well you might be able to use BusyBox which includes basic shell utilities and is about 1200kb in size for the whole image npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio That's manageable. You can just do: FROM scratch npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Yeah I know they're not the same thing but you can run a shell script and its dependencies in Docker npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Yeah I think Docker would be a more conventional, manageable, secure and straight forward approach. I can help you Dockerise your app so it runs the same everywhere and nobody has to install any dependencies :) I don't tend to just run code anymore if its not in Docker anyway because lots of dependencies have post install scripts which contain malware that could infect my system. Docker mitigates this. Its honestly a beautiful technology that when you understand will change everything npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Look at containerising your application using something like Docker. This allows it to be deployed in an isolated, replicable environment you can run everywhere npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Go for it! Can't wait to see what you come up with npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Does anyone remember the piracy advert at the start of all those DVDs? Turns out both the font and music for that video were pirated. How ironic is that!! Someone was talking to me about adverts that show up in the middle of media on paid streaming services the other day and I was saying how DVDs are so much better. They used to have adverts at the start but you could always skip them. We ended up talking about that piracy advert and it reminded me that the advert ended up being part of a lawsuit. Anyways I think more people should know about this so I decided to post it on the worlds most popular social media platform, Nostr! https://blossom.primal.net/599d7072132c7037da63ab0a75bb2db61b5db51cf18066bdced619a5e3e73e7f.jpg npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Today is International Fairy Day as well npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Ayy well done! npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Do you need help? npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Oh nice! I switched from Amythest to Dark Whispr the other day. Everything has pros and cons I guess. I'll probably make a pull request npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Looks like there's no clients that can undo/ delete a repost on Nostr. I accidentally reposted a book signing because just as my thumb was about to make contact with the reboost button the video from the post above loaded which expanded the post above and caused its reboost button the be right underneath my thumb :/ Its a hard life 😂 npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Mornings Nostr. Happy International Surfing Day 🏄 npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Discipline beats motivation! npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Who wouldn't love a 5 week program on BTC and Nostr 😂 npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Started using Dark Whispr. So far so good, its a great app and definitely worth checking out if you haven't already :D #darkwhispr #nostrclient npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Such a brilliant mix today Matt. Thank you! It was great to listen to the Kalimera show after so long. I used to listen everyday when I was in London and it always gets me in a good mood. There's nothing quite like it npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio We can put him on a 5 week program :D npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Thought I'd make some pancakes this morning https://blossom.primal.net/04900508e6a8ebd36fc68d85c9d5b26a49f7230046b60d2cc8b1c3fb3637f007.mp4 npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Some more updates because I've been away from Nostr for a while https://blossom.primal.net/58a9ea8eafe96f6776d5a527220db601b2f3a9ca11de5890be53dd731983b01d.jpg https://blossom.primal.net/d4194cd1fda72d62fdd4660dd5711f9f22939de14ae1b87776e466acc29c18a1.jpg https://blossom.primal.net/94126e0941d9d7a4547f132314f66e4b6136ff4088883544ea2838e840cf5a54.jpg https://blossom.primal.net/9bbc73f4980419ddc3e1a938b5ae1286ec25aaba02eb9d666e16821f176942e8.jpg npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Thought I'd share some recent pictures :P The Labrador and the cat aren't mine unfortunately https://blossom.primal.net/93ee8c2a23034bb0885f5420ccfecaa076ba8c846a88f42ad84df78fac072546.jpg https://blossom.primal.net/caeebc79ff90e7e7c5654187a75eafcd16c8123afda1bdb9121247312e11b22b.jpg https://blossom.primal.net/20f6044bf9ac1dfff0f2ded41313a04bf652deb91aab0c1d569473789aed6ed1.jpg https://blossom.primal.net/14d1d04f37dec1ffe55f9ac1386eaa706e91cad12d739941925f63ccc460b7f7.jpg https://blossom.primal.net/ad4e25b8ac4fb114005086f6eee1f0d589c0c77851d758891be4913e4e769b03.jpg https://blossom.primal.net/dd9d7601afacf44e8ebbe24da1c4384a492eefe29105da5c25b52b72eff585ef.jpg https://blossom.primal.net/08531278d4b8d8e4ed9010cda54ae62a213aeb8e26eb5567bfa4b5282b0657d2.jpg https://blossom.primal.net/6ae9834da7fdfa788731b6f7160d5dcaa23ed030692a5b2db0c65c585fb8386b.jpg https://blossom.primal.net/ef632537c32e4a5fe1aa4c9b25808c69b6be5b751214f9a57ecbb8b19f7e7961.jpg https://blossom.primal.net/319dfd685e073221b7161ac8b923d9fed13102f604e285f369bcdf739e3ff413.jpg https://blossom.primal.net/05ab27aecc1e3f54782fb53c4ce387837f7653b22a973e3aaccdb1040267ba5e.jpg npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio We need to get Adrian into Nostr 😂 npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio You guys need to come down to Kent, UK for a Nostr meetup. We have tonnes of great choices for food down here hehe npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Exactly. If those cardboard waving terrorists could say what they want online I fear what kind of world we'd live in npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio I'm sold! My new handle on there is @i_love_state_surveillance_for_keeping_us_safe npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Muchas gracias npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Yeah I'd love to meet up. @npub1q33…mqu0 who I know in real life has been to a few and it looks really fun. I need to sort my EU passport so that I don't have to submit all my biometrics over and then I'm all set. I'd love to meet up with you lot at some point though at a convention or something. I'm a professional magician as well so they'll be lots to keep you entertained 😁 npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio I love this so much! I couldn't agree more. Where are you guys finding these meet ups? I'd love to come along or even organise one. Also...what do you use for your captions? Do you use Whispr locally and then just embed the subtitle file or something? npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio How cool would it be to have the ability to zap people in Signal messenger or Matrix. They'll never implement it but I love the idea. For instance my friend just did me a favour and I wanted to zap them but I couldn't. I might investigate into whether Matrix can support this through third-party integrations. I can code a bot to pick up on reactions and zap from a sandboxed wallet at the very least. The issue is getting my friends on the lightning network xD npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio When it comes to Nostr and scaling I am not sure it needs to scale like normal social media. I think people having a small set of relays where they only communicate with a close community is KEY to why I Nostr feels like the early days of the internet. People feel close and connected because we're not talking to a global audience in the same way you typically would on social media. On Nostr I see the same people frequently and I love that. I meet new people through other peoples networks who comment on posts or share things that get reposted by people I follow. This is beautiful. Rather than connecting with thousands of individuals I'll never see again, there's real value. Nostr does need to scale but I think having smaller communities is my favourite thing about Nostr and I hope that never changes. We could enforce this with intelligent relay systems. Traditional social media has become a farm for enagegment which runs on superficial dopamine or vicarious pleasure. You're interacting with a sea of strangers and bots you'll never see again and I don't like this. If I could just have a micro social media with my friends I would and Nostr offers that. Apologies for how badly I've articulated myself, but hopefully you get the point npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Appreciate the support ✌ We'll have to see what I cook up. I'll keep you updated :) npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio No problemo! I too am quite busy and struggling to commit, hence why I've been off here for so long. I was thinking of finding some bubbly individuals and giving them access the account so that people can just add to it as and when they see things with the idea that it shares the load. I'm think I might just start off doing a weekly video in a hammock outdoors where I go through the good news and then see if I can sustain that first npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio It comes from this person. In their post they link the Github pages site which allows you to generate your own #nevent1q…sh49 npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio @npub1995…8vtf if I gave you access to the account would you be interested in publishing to it with me? npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Does anybody know any sources of good news? I'd like to start a new account which pushes positive content regularly. It will include good news, games, challenges, quotes and all sorts of feel good material. I'm thinking of calling it "The Happy Nostrich" and I might setup a domain as well at some point. npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio I just thought I'd let everyone know that if ever need to verify my identity you can use my PGP key [email protected] If this account was ever compromised - which is quite possible given Nostr's inherent security issues - then I'll refer back to this post on a new account and just sign any messages with PGP npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Checkout Jazzosaurs on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ssaCG7x3FRA npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio In 2017 Radiohead supposedly got hacked. Attackers managed to steal recordings of sessions from their OK Computer album and threatened to release them to the public if the band didn't pay 150,000 quid. Radiohead went "fuck that" and released them on Bandcamp for £18 with all the profits going to the climate activist group Extinction Rebellion. I've been listening to the session recordings and they're sooo good. Its amazing to hear how these songs have developed and the band experimenting mid song, laughing, messing around or just eating crisps xD I managed to find them on The Internet Archive so if anyone wants the link lemme know. @nprofile…h25z I was thinking these would go down great if I ever make a guest mix for The Kalimera Show - which I'd love to do by the way; currently my friend in London has my mics though :/ npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio I know right, since Mastodon wiped out Meta, Facebook has become a ghost town 😂 npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Some clients can zap you using [email protected] and some can't, which is annoying. [email protected] is still valid to zap you with though despite the fact you've changed it on Nostr npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Yes free and open source solution: https://www.spacedrive.com/ I've been using Space Drive this past week as I got fed up with Finder's "search" feature. It's become a bit of a meme in the programming space that if you ever think you're a bad programmer just look at Mac OS search. Space Drive is in alpha but it's pretty good and it's search works!! I looked into fixing Mac OS search and a bunch of thing and nothing worked so this was the best solution I could find. Let me know how you get on npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Yeah the update downloads more RAM to your computer npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Looks like the economy crashed according to them as 1000 BTC is supposedly worth 0.76 USD. Eek! Must be the start of the next mass extinction event 😂 npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio What fantastic news \o/ https://image.nostr.build/1e638f45463b12a3ede8ca7a79fc8433714bfc8752b659f26d629566db7200cb.jpg #nostr #notodigitalid #freedom #digitalrights #politics #unitedkingdom npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Yesss, I'm good thank you. Feeling happy to get back into the Nostrverse. I'm thinking of doing a good news segment everyday along with some updates on how my mushrooms (like my Lion's Mane) are growing and maybe some cookery content. Gotta spread the positivity 🥳 npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Omg it's you! I haven't been on Nostr in months and I am so happy to see you. It feels like bumping into someone on the street. I'm not sure if you remember me but I remember you posting some pretty awesome stuff. #peace and #love Night gang ✌ npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio I meant to say "a face to the name" 🙄 npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio As not many of you know me in real life I thought I'd put a name to the face. I've pretty much accepted that I'm an open source human bean now days. Here are some recent pictures: https://image.nostr.build/5bd598568f9bfe9d713955e283a8f657f0b906ae54a44ca365268e0495a66829.png https://image.nostr.build/a9bb820af5a0c506873b0604f1756eb33fdbef83ed410ea760fa8ecdef7e5ef5.png https://image.nostr.build/41ab98bc66226bb0acd0fbb3b4add56de13a82952d87522cb9d34b3607e69f24.png https://image.nostr.build/8fc731ab23194b773891c735b61cdc9aa81a7997dae670486da02c73681b55ba.png npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Does anybody have any good ideas for the following domains? Best idea wins! - liberal.wiki - liberal.guide - stopreform.com - stopreform.uk - stopreform.co.uk - fuckreform.uk - fuckreform.co.uk - stopthetories.net - fuckproject2025.org I’m going to post this on some other platforms too. If you’re looking for some inspiration: it could be a website featuring a corruption timeline, a forum, a censorship resistant social media, a poster, a wiki on how to circumvent censorship and rise against the far right, collection of news articles and archived documents, a Nigel Farrage meme maker. The floor is yours! Please repost!! npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Indeed. I am convinced I could hack Nostr quite easily as it's rather fragile, as are most things in their early stages. I quite like the fact that Nostr resembles the early days of the internet I never got to experience, it feels special in a way. I've been off Nostr for a while now but I do love it. I think I lost interest when I had almost finished my paper and stopped myself publishing it after I realised the backlash it would get from certain members of the community. Unfortunately some people love Nostr the way it is and don't want any clients at any point in the future to have to support any new NIPS or protocol changes. Therefore you can only make changes which do not break backwards compatibility. This makes it quite hard to introduce security measures to make Nostr more robust and scalable. Nevertheless I do love the small community around Nostr and it's little quirks. npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio I'd love that too! npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio That's rather ambitious. It's fascinating how everybody seems to have a different opinion of what we want to achieve here. Looks like we're all here for different reasons npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Interesting. I prefer that too, it's nice to see some familiar faces and "bump into" people randomly. I feel like that could still be the case with Nostr no matter how big it gets though. Because you can have private relays and communities and people can be kicked out of those communities quite easily if they break the rules too npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Big question, do we want Nostr to become mainstream and have an open, decentralised internet? Is that the problem we're trying to solve? Or does everybody just like having a small community like the old days of the internet #asknostr #nostr #socialmedia #mainstream npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio That's fantastic! I'm a huge advocate for natural remedies. I've done a lot of research into fungi based pathology as I'm always out foraging but I haven't kept up-to-date with it for a couple of years now. The last thing I was looking into was the effects of Bee venom; they think it could be an anticancer agent: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10378503/ npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Money spending tip… If you’re unable to find any wood then hear up the Sourdough bread in the oven for 5-10 minutes and I’ll go really soft and fluffy🙈😆 Note that Sourdough is incredibly addictive. Proceed with caution ⛔️ npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio I didn’t end up releasing this way in the end but I did do all the research and dealt with PPL before my fellow band members decided to go with Distrokid - which was rather disappointing but understandable. Please forgive me if I over explain anything here but essentially you want to go to PPL’s website as they’re the ones who allocate ISRCs in the UK. It’s quite simple if you go to this link where they break down how it all works: https://www.ppluk.com/royalties/uk-royalties/recording-rightsholders/#isrc-registration You can go here and register your IRSC code. There’s a few options but the simplest is “I want an ISRC but do not wish to register as a PPL member” it’ll then send you to a page with a big blue button saying “Start registration” : https://myppl.ppluk.com/s/qq You might have already been through all of this and if so I apologise if it comes across as patronising but feel free to ask any questions and I’ll do my best to help npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio https://image.nostr.build/28e7ac665fe41378430aebf6d66b84138543d0efb265ba1374ad70b6399052e4.jpg npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Yeah it’s worth chucking it into duck.ai I recommend picking a Claude model npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Sorry to hear that, if you’re using Linux then I suggest using a file system called BTRFS. It keeps Snapshots and it’s extremely robust. If you set it up to use RAID 10 then you’re very unlikely to lose data. I suggest running “journalctl -f” to see any failures or looking through logs. If there’s something causing drives to become corrupt then you want to pick that up as soon as possible!! npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio It's tempting to try, I guess this is where we're at now 😂 npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Try Penpot.app, it's open source and is very mature and actively developed. I've been using it for professional work for a while. I find it so much more simple compared to Figma and I love that I can self host! npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio I wonder what the likelihood is that my private key has been compromised. When I began using Nostr I tried out quite a few different clients before adopting a signing extension. Now days I use remote signing. However there's always that part of me that is pretty sure the whole thing is pointless and there's a malicious client out there already which has gone and snatched it up! npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Me too! What are you studying and at what level? npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio There's a good chance they can be recovered npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Slight correction on my typo, BTC does not have a private blockchain, it’s public. I’d also like to emphasise the point that privacy with Monero isn’t optional, it’s built into it. npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio BTC is certainly a fantastic cryptocurrency but it most definitely doesn’t win on privacy. Monero (XMR) is private by default. In fact it’s very difficult to make a transaction that isn’t private, even if you initially bought through a KYC exchange. It’s compatible with atomic swaps too so you can exchange it with BTC P2P in a zero trust manner. XMR employs several techniques such as stealth addresses and ring signatures to ensure that its blockchain provides POW (proof of work) whilst remaining private, unlike BTC’s private blockchain. XMR also uses the RandomX POW algorithm which is CPU friendly as it favours hardware that handles a more varied and random workload. This makes it ASIC resistant meaning that buying all of the ASIC processors and starting a mining farm like people do with BTC won’t really work. This means regular individuals can mine at home :D Not to mention how scalable XMR is with dynamic block sizes that can change depending on how much traffic is running on the network. Monero has a long way to go, as does BTC but, for me at least, it wins on privacy. Especially if you run your own node! #note1za7…dx8a npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio To compress video uploads? npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Thank you so much, that means a lot. Will do! npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Does it ever want to make you just carry around a massive EMP 😂 Let’s hope there’s no pacemakers around 😬 npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio I think currently this stands true but it’s not unsolvable. Demand for new social media platforms is arising. Especially given the fact many countries are looking to require ID for social media as well as limit consumption by legal means. Not to mention the censorship issue everyone is becoming increasingly aware of. If Jack Dorsey for instance began promoting a new client with a killer user experience, the ability to chose your algorithm etc on social media as a sponsored campaign I think it would really start kicking off. Of course we need to flatten the learning curve while still keeping the platform decentralised and redundant. Before this is done though we need to implement a tried and tested set of protocols to deal with the security issues Nostr faces. I was supposed to be publishing a paper this week but I’m very ill on holiday so it might be delayed. Give us a follow for updates - and also because I’m trying to get followers because Nostr isn’t very fun if nobody hears you! I know you’re quite busy today, as am I but when you have time check out my post from 3 weeks ago on this: #note1s3s…5ac0 npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio @npub1q33…mqu0 are these the early investors of the Kali Mera Show? https://video.nostr.build/d7cb1206e01e3afaeb98a974652acbb702381aaa5612c1ae4d9ee2c3ca44dbe7.mp4 npub1dtzccz2f9kf9dsazystgat6hj6h2cceueq6464awjfl7e0dpdynq22x90t Curiio Over in Scotland they have none of the high tech weather equipment used for the Kali Mera Show like George or Tree of Truth so they have to reply on Coo the Cow 🐄
