Does anyone ever go down obscure learning pathways?
In years past, when I would try to pick up bits of a language, I would suddenly find myself going down a wild adventure on Wikipedia or elsewhere and would then decide to learn some outdated script or obscure dialect.
For example, I visited Vietnam for the first time maybe decade ago and decided to start learning about the history of its language. I discovered Chữ Nôm and really wanted to find some resources to learn that script. Mind, I hardly knew any Vietnamese, so knowing characters for a language I didn't speak made little sense. I mean, the only real reasons to do that would be to geek out for fun AND get some nerd street cred.

Does anyone else do stuff like this?

Wouldn't the XMR-based software options fall into the same risk categories? I'm thinking Retoswap or the like.
If someone has to actively maintain them, then they're running a legal risk of being exchange operators, at least in the EU, right?

What sites and models are you using for this type of work?

2026-07-07 07:56:05 CEST

I'll be the first to admit that I use and abuse YouTube as a sort of search engine to research different topics, but I think this old note from BenniBTC is entirely correct. A lot of content could just be streamed audio and a PDF.
Instead of a PDF, a long-form note on Nostr would work too. Not being super well-informed about all of the different NIPs out there, I'm not sure if Nostr could handle the audio content too?
Alternatively, does anyone know how #Reticulum (and by extension #Nomadnet) would work for this type of model? #nevent1q…724w

2026-07-07 07:30:48 CEST

I've seen several people mention the Vector chat app recently, so I finally downloaded it (in spite of the fact that I so rarely send messages on Nostr).
The interface is incredibly clean and easy to use.
It does make me wonder if there's anything comparable for desktop?

I've heard both positive and negative feedback about the Ordinariate Use. For TLM purists, they still see it as "Novus Ordo-ized", but for most others, they still consider it a fairly traditional liturgy, which also happens to be in the vernacular, which is a win for many.

Always interested in things obscure, I learned years ago about the Artsakh Republic and had wanted to visit. With the Azeri invasion of this historically Armenian territory in 2023, that dream fell by the wayside.
There was hope that peace could return to this land, but it seems that the Azeris are intent on erasing every last remnant of the Armenian presence there, which dates back centuries.
Today, I awoke to learn that Azeris are now in the process of demolishing a central church in Stepanakert. This is the kind of behavior of thugs and terrorists. While not directly correlated, it reminds me of the destruction of the Buddhas of Bamiyan over two decades ago now.
May God forgive them for these crimes they commit against the population and against history itself!

That seems to be the general consensus, yes, due to the way messages are distributed across those networks.

As a privacy nerd, I'm embarrassed to say that I even touched a Windows machine recently, let alone opened YouTube directly. (I know, I know. I should have stuck with Invidious and/or NewPipe...)
Nevertheless, I did so on an old machine to turn on some background music. At least, it was with the Brave browser. Small blessings, eh?
Anyway, I noticed that the video struggled to load and kept flickering. The video timer was stuck at 00:00/00:00, so clearly it had some problems loading. Then, out of the corner of my eye, I noticed that the the little Brave logo on the address bar was flashing rapidly as the number of items blocked grew exponentially. I let it go for 30+ seconds, and it finally hit 99+, clearly not able to display anything higher, even if it continued to block more privacy-invading trash from Google.
Does anyone have any idea what kind of new garbage YouTube is trying to sneak through? What are mainstream users being inundated with?
