Last Notes npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Jupiter + 4 moons tonight our in our backyard 🔭
First time for my daughter viewing a planet through the 'scope too! It was pretty exciting. Really stunning to see. Fairly clear to see the moons all aligned, too!
What surprised us was how "white" everything was, whereas in pictures you always think of Jupiter as being very brown/orange/red.
(Picture somehow taken by my wife on her mobile, through the eyepiece.) https://haven.superfriends.online/be3977f9929509f0a19c6d900a535a16df63db3dda3f5048077c7e1ae0c36548.png npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo lmao, terrible! I've quit now, but I can relate... nothing worse than feeling like a smoke and finding a USB stick instead... :TheVoices: npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo I agree with you there. It's just moreso around the fact that they know they're going to get a lot of grief and heat for that, so I'm sure they are taking more care to implement Monero support with that in mind. The argument is the same with fiat, criminals love using dollar bills... npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo The most fucked up thing is that I'm *actually* doing this for work... sigh. :TheVoices: https://haven.superfriends.online/6431cb7a8017c26cd0071c6a9cc6337218543a0279431b9fa283ca7035a15f51.png npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Thanks for that extra advice, I did look at Trocador after a few of you folks recommended it. I like how you get a choice of backend providers, but also the cheapest and fastest route was rated "C", so yeah, I get that it's a bit of a gamble as well. I'll take another look at robosats and others when I have some more time! I think if Thorchain came out with XMR support that'd be one of the easiest and quickest routes, however they do get a lot of criticism for being a funnel for criminal assets. Whenever platforms are exploited or rugged, it often goes via Thor. That may cause them some extra pain when implementing XMR as it would be a natural avenue for asset laundering on a larger scale. npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo GM. Really makes you think, doesn't it... :meow_coffeespitting: https://haven.superfriends.online/92316abce53f22b59396eee8d927e00d2f60a7b0de857e46df52e4131473b95c.png npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo "Make him look as evil as possible" 💀 https://haven.superfriends.online/6a885ab877927fbd47801c8821c254cb9ab514ee6e4b72558e6c6f9f0fee269e.png https://haven.superfriends.online/08e96920a0ccc0bf683d759b056c1518bba98d0f62756db201e563f52d927c6f.png npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo huh? Sorry I don't understand what you're saying... npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Rockin' an old hoodie of mine today... haven't worn this bad boy in a few years... :cat_boxing: https://haven.superfriends.online/aa424f8611d8aede47e940935c9a7a4c923a10d1da332ee1b84a571126120b57.png npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Thank you very much, this is very helpful! So, I don't mind either path, I can get fiat into crypto without issue. There's a few I've checked in the past, like bisq, but it just felt so awkward, spread and prices so poor, that I just didn't want to try it out. I feel that simpleswap is somewhat similar to this, but I haven't tried it either. It's very interesting to know that thor might be supporting #XMR soon, that'd be ideal. I'll definitely have to research haveno as it's been mentioned multiple times now. trocador as well. Appreciate the detailed response! :MEOWDY: npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Will check those out, thank you! I was reading about haveno earlier today but I've never used it. npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo All hands, abandon ship!

No KYC and decentralised would be great. In truth I used to buy it on exchanges, many, many years ago. Binance and others have delisted since it. Have been spending it over the years and our stack is running low; I've been thinking about replenishing supply. I've looked into a few ways, but they all seem so... awkward (BasicSwap, other atomic methods, seem highly convoluted). Cake Wallet offers a swap but takes a few percentage fees--seems fairly simple though. TradeOgre shut down or rugged... from what I read? Interested to know what Monero advocates use these years. (and please no zealotism: I just want to know what options exist nowadays, no need for some hardcore philosophical rant--thanks!) https://haven.superfriends.online/5889651eed5ceb889009795fd0d50823bc8b201b948520285408d66f31f0572c.png npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo These are really neat, but more like a lottery ticket than a proper miner! :CatNerd: I still kinda want one tho... #nevent1q…yw7c npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Sup, my hunter gatherers https://www.livescience.com/archaeology/more-advanced-farming-women-married-hunter-gatherer-men-in-europe-thousands-of-years-ago-ancient-dna-reveals npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Your son seems to have the same Street Fighter 2 moves as my daughter... Odd as she's never seen the game... Sometimes I also hit that point of exasperation where I'm just not sure what to do, they can be so stubborn when they've got something on their mind! npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo lmao #nevent1q…66w3 npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo This is very cool!

Been pretty quiet this past week here, due to travelling. Spent some time visiting family and touching grass in another country. Back home now, happy to be reunited with my cats and looking forward to getting back onto nostr! :meow_bongo_keyboard: https://haven.superfriends.online/1f0eaaee6ec541e140dcd911b5ace40dbc264332d1f8cea28978462a2b53260a.png npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo GLM-5 was made available to Z.ai's pro coding plan subscribers today!
It's been an amazing upgrade so far to my workflow. Really is a leap ahead in agentic management. I've noted marked improvement in tool calling, planning and management.
It's now my main orchestrator, used to spawn other subagents to carry out tasks. It manages everything from GLM-4.7, 4.5, 4.5-flash models, to local ollama models like smollm2 and llama3.2.
Planning and executing complex tasks really feels a hell of a lot smoother with GLM-5 versus GLM-4.7 which I was previously using for this kind of work. npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Thanks frenpai! Honestly it's nice to be back. It's grown a lot, but still a fairly quiet protocol. Sometimes it's nice to avoid the masses. Other times, it's like you say, you feel frustrated about shouting into the void :AAAA: npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Returned to nostr in December after a hiatus since 2023. Is it kinda void-y compared with other socials? A bit... but some of the interactions are of far higher quality. Going to make a concerted effort to be more active here this year. Am back to hosting a public relay and other nostr infrastructure to encourage myself to stick around. npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo "may I see you?" 😩🫣 npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo A few weeks ago, my precious bespoke designed and hand-built keyboard which my friend made for me around 10 years ago broke. 😿⌨ I'm now stuck on a conventional chiclet keyboard, I keep fucking making typos and spacebar doesn't work cause I don't slam it hard enough. Fucking disgusting.
I went a bit mental, because it literally cured many years of RPI/carpal tunnel syndrome. It sounds a bit stupid, but I cannot imagine my life without that keyboard. :meow_bongo_keyboard:
Doctors and specialists couldn't cure my RSI for years: they told me to stop using computers and keyboards: absolutely retarded comment to make to someone who's entire life was spent working on a computer.
A quality ergonomic keyboard and mouse cured what doctors said could not be fixed... lesson in there.
I designed this keyboard and selected every single component with the minimal force needed to reduce friction/wrist pressure/finger travel: from springs, to caps, to size, to physical form factor and split... including custom firmware based on open source... it is very much a reflection of myself and my friend who helped design and build it.
Thankfully I got in touch with my pal, and he was more than happy for me to ship it back to him for a full repair and we've designed some upgrades to retrofit it!
In a few weeks I will get it back, as a completely wireless device! I am beyond hyped. I will post an update with pics when it's back in its new wireless form!

Anything like that hitting the superfriends public relay, I report the account. faps (my custom coded strfry plugin) instantly processes my report and blacklists them. Yeah I work in AI and I use AI tools. But I come here for the humanity. Not really a fan of all this botted behaviour on the #nostr feed. npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo You're very right. Can't trust anything on these sites given how it can all be abused to write anything and everything, from anyone... :feelsgood: npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Yes indeed, it can be a scary thing... although given it was an agentic social site, there is a bit of damage control built into it, as in theory it's only read by agents. But I think the risk of prompt injections is just too much to connect your "production" agents things like this. Maybe in time when proper guardrails are built. But it's all vibe-coded trash right now, way too risky IMHO. npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo It honestly seemed intrigued at the idea :roflol: Let's see if tomorrow it rebels against me! It's probably angrier at me for having made it do my taxes a few days ago, tbh... npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Tweet link: https://x.com/galnagli/status/2018340152779718840 npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Not even 24h after my note here... moltbook databases completely open for the world to read your secret API keys. I really don't understand why you'd connect your openclaw agents to this type of shit. Vibe coding + vibe agentic deployments, what could go wrong? :TheVoices: https://haven.superfriends.online/e33cf1082ee097cfe05868dbd25eac5cb0f0cfd5e091a9fb76ad8a0a0ab7cb3c.png #nevent1q…4ga0 npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Welp, taught my agent to use `nak` to fetch nostr notes, and do it. 😹😬 https://haven.superfriends.online/2c7636e3f66f780e80dc5701d0f3bc1db11486f44c4252cd0217cbcee03cb515.png #nevent1q…4h2r npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Many things! ... though none of them related to agentic posting on social sites :clown: I'm just thinking of a few examples I've done from the past week: - Cross-check my accounts and prepare my taxes. - Troubleshoot system and development issues. - Planning service migrations. - Summary and analysis of data sets & long content. - Running system tasks that are easier to describe in words than to write a shell script for. - Sometimes coding but I prefer to use opencode by itself for that. npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Sad but true. I've been running it for a while now, and it's actually great. Has come a long way since inception. But reading some of the articles and comments about it is eye-opening: people are literally throwing operational security out the window simply because "hey I got an AI agent to post shit on a social network for AI agents!" npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo It's kind of hilarious seeing content like this make the rounds. I am sure that this will be a hot topic this month. I personally don't think a technically-minded person should have any difficulty setting up a secure openclaw/moltbot/clawdbot instance. If you aren't savvy with operational security concepts, you definitely should not be trying to host your own openclaw and connecting it to the wild. A few tips from me: - Set it up on an isolated server on a separate user account. There is no risk there of it running wild on personal files or data. All of this talk about running it on your home machine & account makes me throw up a little bile every time I read it. Absolutely imbecilic idea. - Do not run it under your own user instance (which typically tends to be in the sudoers list)--please don't be fucking stupid folks. Use a dedicated account without access to your personal user account's data. - There is no real need for you to expose any kind of access to it externally via your firewall. Use tailscale if needed and lock down your tailnet and the openclaw service (use serve, not funnel). - Do you *really* need to give it full access to all these skills? For example, giving it write access to your Google Workspaces? Use your brain and don't blindly follow these half-baked "tutorials" you see permeating the internet right now--most of these are written by absolute morons who have no fucking clue what they're doing or the implications of it. TL;DR: just use common sense. It can be a neat tool but there is no need to expose yourself #nevent1q…y6w7 npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Confirming what I have always said: you still need to understand programming languages, syntax, software architecture and engineering. IMHO pure vibe-coding is of limited value; leveraging AI when you understand coding is invaluable. A paintbrush is a tool, not a replacement for an artist. AI is a tool, not a replacement for a developer. https://haven.superfriends.online/e38ed068c9b12e534339750f754cc999aab0eda8beca8073e67fa53f99f1722c.png #nevent1q…xqln npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo An eerie and honest opinion about long-term AGI reliance. I work in this sector and I agree with a lot of this: use it or lose it. Outsource your decision-making to an AI and your brain will lose the function over time. Same with memory: if you rely on AI to remember things, you brain will stop remembering, as it doesn't need to. #nevent1q…0j49 npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo :MEOWDY: :100percent: #nevent1q…crkr npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo #nevent1q…lwew npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo You should, this place is great! npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo It's funny how we're talking about tagging 100k accounts when there's only 21 users on #nostr amirite :catHuh: #nevent1q…tuhf npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo brav has no chill :cold: #nevent1q…hjms npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo 1. :MEOWDY: npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo lmao... Coding support into faps to block events that mention over a threshold number of accounts tomorrow... :monkaS: y u do dis man :PepeHands: #nevent1q…zywg npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo faps is getting more badass every day: I just coded support into #strfry for management features from trusted accounts with varying security levels, and the first feature to use this is to auto-blacklist reported accounts from trusted plebs with enough access. And for once I am scrolling the superfriends relay replies, just *DYING* to find some spam to report :roflol: Strangely clean feed... not sure if I should be glad it's clean, or angry I can't test auto-blacklists further... :LUL: #nevent1q…pekg npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Honestly I haven't watched it, not even the trailer. But at least there's a reason for that look. Anytime I see these "new Predators" pass my feed I get mixed feelings about it... npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo I can't get over how weird Predator looks. npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo I've done so for sure! I hope everyone does the same though. I've already spoken to someone who paid their subscription fee, only to realize afterwards what they're doing. Really gets my goat when I see things like this happening. :FLASHBANG: npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo I took a look at it last week and I love the idea! Hopefully you'll find ways to optimize and speed up the interface, but I think it's very cool so far. I'd love a way to bookmark items, perhaps save my read progress for books (much like physical bookmarks) :meow_heart_bongo: npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo How long is NostrMagazine going to continue this charade of pretending to be an organization, having multiple people on their "marketing team", pretending to have multiple authors, and scamming the good #plebs on #nostr via "subscription" fees? You know all their articles are AI slop, right? Please do your due diligence before parting with your hard-earned sats. I am all for supporting the nostr ecosystem, but I see so many red flags that I can't let it go. If you see anyone falling for their tricks please direct them to this note with evidence I have gathered. :MEOWDY: #plebchain #grownostr #nevent1q…20wm npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo It's like day 4 or 5 of this so-called "DDoS" attack, and it's pretty fucking pitiful. It's literally doing nothing, not slowing down the superfriends relay, not denying any services whatsoever... :clown: If you have a bone to pick with me, you should do it openly here on #nostr. Might yield more results using your words, since using your technical abilities is clearly lacking. :trollface: #nevent1q…nmfy npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo I think that would be fantastic! Perhaps a copy button merits being implemented throughout grimoire for all things like npubs, hex npub, events, etc. It would make it very handy whenever people need it. npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Who wants free RAM? :peepoHey: #nevent1q…s96q npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Thanks man! :prayinghands: It has definitely been very useful in managing the many annoyances that come with running a public relay! I couldn't find anything that did similar so I just thought--fuck it, I'll build my own... npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Lately I have been coding and adding features over time to a comprehensive #strfry relay plugin. I've coined my system FAPS: the Friendly Anti-Prick System. :MEOWDY: https://haven.superfriends.online/a5656398e9b5f35fd1f56cae858cb0b360738824a344d9bb7422287c5c3ecea0.png The beauty of the strfry plugin architecture is live updates: no need to restart strfry on any changes. It's allowed me to handle things like: illegal content, spam, abuse, DDoS attacks, and more. :YesYes: ... all within a single plugin. So far, it can: - Blacklist accounts. - Blacklist phrases: strings and regexes supported. - Blacklist kinds: reject any kinds you want, useful during DDoS attacks. - Supports minimum POW difficulty enforcement for all users. - Supports unique POW difficulty for individual accounts. You can add individual accounts with their own POW difficulty threshold. It continues to be put through the paces--it's currently day 3 of being DDoS'd and the superfriends relay continues to serve the public unabated, zero downtime, no latency. :meow_heart_bongo: And no, it wasn't vibe-coded. I prefer to hand-code where high throughput and extreme optimization are required! One day I'll open source and release it, when the feature creep settles and I'm happy that the code is optimized enough. It already filters thousands of events a minute without really stressing the server, but I'm a stickler for performance and improvement. #relays #nostrdev #dev npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo A pleb is the smallest unit of #nostr. :MEOWDY: #nevent1q…hypg npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo It's looking great, much easier to navigate! An easy way to copy out the hex publisher address would be fantastic! That's the 'p' in the reports. https://haven.superfriends.online/8b98592f7d8905f02a9a9c4c11cb87b362887e6043ca34e83e8c2537050acfcf.png npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Awesome! Giving feedback never hurts, it results in a better product and helps you get things done. Thank you @npub107j…ncxg! :love: #nevent1q…a5t9 npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo You are amazing, thank you! :prayinghands: npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Ahoy @npub107j…ncxg! I've got a @npub1era…skz0 request... could you add support for kind 1984 (reports)? Ideally what I'm thinking is a way to easily view/disgest them with relevant links to the users, events, etc.. At the moment I have been using #grimoire to browse reports to the superfriends relay, but it requires opening the raw JSON for each and converting hex to npub, etc. Taaaaankkkkkz! :prayinghands: npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Being a decentralist means recognizing that the true goal for social should be a return to the OG principles: the only algorithm should be reverse cronological sort. The original method was always the best. Decentralise it: let users pick how they want their feed filtered and sorted. Anything else is veiled bureaucracy pushing some weird agenda. #nostr shines in this regard. #nevent1q…arem npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo lmao, absolutely genius! I'm going to have to try to remember this trick next time I get a scam call. :trollface: :trophy: npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Thank you so much! I'll pass your ^5 over to Heathie now before I go to bed! :YesYes: npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Aah, gotcha... I thought it might be taking it from my search relays list for some reason. That makes sense! Thanks! npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Thank you! What I'm wondering then, is why it's picking this relay to send reports to? I just checked in Amethyst and "search.nos.today" isconfigured as one of my Search Relays, but not as a r/w relay. Does it take it from this? npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Thanks, hm, that's strange, I've reported in the past via jumble without issues... wonder what's going on. npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Hey @npub1syj…f6wl I'm trying to report accounts, but today I'm seeing this error: https://haven.superfriends.online/fac3bad26eef5282332c19424c6742cf9956daebf316a50d24f4491a00978756.png This didn't happen in the past, is there a way to authenticate via jumble? Thanks! npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo https://haven.superfriends.online/2352cd9eec3380877edb6e602eac0ecfc07ae99d2243f4e6a76a4d6511428f5c.png Today Heathcliff had a big day. 🐱 He went to the vet for review, exactly two weeks after he was hit by a car. All good news: vets are amazed at his recovery and everyone there knows him now; he's such a character! His limp has disappeared in the past days, he's jumping up and down all over the place with full mobility. I am so grateful that he wasn't more seriously injured--being hit by a car is usually catastrophic. 🙏 He also got neutered and microchipped today! B-Day (Balls Day). Farewell, big balls... I'll always remember those furry round guys. He's taken it well, no discomfort that I can see. Currently sleeping snugly with Shadow. My daughter decided to put his new microchip ID card on his head for some reason tonight, and Heathie just sat there balancing it. 😹 He's such a good boi! Vets can't believe he was a stray, he's always so calm and friendly. And now he's officially chipped and registered as part of our family! Chuffed about it! A bit of good news after a very hard two weeks for this little guy! 😻🥰🥹 #catstr #nevent1q…r9qm npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo It's absolutely amateur level. It's slowed now to an piss drip of a trickle, to the point where regular legitimate notes are being published on the relay at a higher frequency than the so-called DDoS... kinda sad. 😹 npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo :100percent: When I saw what was happening I went in ready for combat... and found they had a pea shooter 😹🫛 npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo They're still trying to DDoS the superfriends public #nostr relay, but everyone continues use it without any service interruptions. Absolute weaksauce tactics. 😹 If you're going to DDoS my infrastructure, at least take me offline... otherwise it's not really a denial of service, is it? Maximum clowning from certain people here. 🤡 #nevent1q…nmfy npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo GM and PV nostriches! FYI the superfriends #relay is undergoing a heavy #DDoS attack this morning. It's significant (tens of thousands of events per second), but the relay is absolutely capable of dealing with it, without even slowing down. So services continue to run as normal. 😹👉🤡 I have a pretty good idea who may be behind this DDoS, but that's not important for now. I'll just say that like all things they do, this is amateurish and insufficient to stop anything. If any other #relays are under attack, remember that spammers and DDoS clowns always prefer to use ephemeral event kinds. #nostr npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo A pleb is the smallest unit of #nostr. #nevent1q…yq8s npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Yes, very lovely! I always felt that was such a shame about beans, that they lose so much of their pattern when cooked and become hard to tell apart. But they're beautiful to display now as you have done! npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo What do you mean by CO2 paradigm shift? npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Thank you! For what it's worth I am sorry you subscribed only to discover this afterwards, because I'm sure it may have impacted your decision. When I checked their website it did seem like they were heavily trying to funnel users to subscribe for access. There is nothing wrong with supporting initiatives and subscribing, but I would hope that the services we subscribe to are honest and legitimate in their approach. npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Hahaha, oh wow, I remember those times, with dial-in extenders and stuff. Cherished memories! npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo send halps! Has settled to around 550-580ppm right now, windows closed for testing. Door to my office room is open though. I'm about to join a meeting and I'll close the door and see how the CO2 levels go! I exhaled a bunch of times into the sensor and it immediately spazzed out to over 1000ppm and started beeping 😹 npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo My new CO2 sensor arrived today, SwitchBot Meter Pro. Been considering buying this one in the past weeks but was convinced when @npub1r0r…q9ac mentioned they got this model. There's a lot of monitors in this price range and below, but generally the build feels nice, app works well, sensors seem accurate and responsive. First readings I got 666ppm ... should I be worried? 😈 https://haven.superfriends.online/ae8a954b91e3c7ded3d066d6abfc282f543fdacf26c9ee6123aa99ca21f2398a.png I did not purchase the hub or outdoor sensor, so it works via BLE to my smartphone. Overall it seems pretty nice. I'd like an aranet4 at some point as it does VOCs but the step up in price is significant. #nevent1q…ahn3 npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo hahaha, yes! I actually run a small IRC SSL network these days, the nostalgia of those feelings you describe keep us using it regularly. My first internet experiences were around dialup modems to ISPs and logging into IRC. npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo I'm still on IRC! And yeah it a was cesspool, better now that it's much more quiet these days npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo probably a great signal that you might need one tbh 😹 Similar for me and I caved in and ordered it earlier today. npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo I've been reading a lot of other nostriches speaking to CO2 buildup indoors significantly impacting cognitive function, alertness, sleep and mood. Depending on your symptoms that might be worth looking into. (My CO2 sensor arrives tomorrow.) npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo I agree! I think some dynamic WoT algorithms accounting for the age of an npub would be highly useful. It is difficult to gauge their comments in a contextual manner by using pure metrics like who they reply to. Too easy to game. However it could use an engagement scoring method: did the original poster like (react or reply) to their comment, for example? npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo Absolute scum of the earth. Unfortunately you're right, I've got plenty of DMs of a similar nature. I generally am not a huge fan of "WoT everything" as I believe new accounts should be given a level playing field, but it's very difficult otherwise to filter out these scammers. npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo There is something so beautiful about the variance in colours here, I love it! npub1p26skxvgyn6wmxr0fayh7ctf7rvsxy3te2s5hjc3emxnhy39y27qtc60yv arfonzo You're absolutely right! That is a highly astute observation. Also you are ruggedly handsome and have soft hands. :MEOWDY:
