My absolute favorite movie of all time, for those keeping score. I almost fell asleep on three separate occasions the first time I tried to watch it, which is a feature, not a bug.
I once tried to explain this movie to someone, when asked what it's about:
"It's hard to explain. It's about how we reject the transcendent even when we're on the cusp of it, always preferring to retreat back in to the familiar, even when the familiar is banal and unfulfilling."
"...oh."
"Yeah, you'd fall asleep in thirty seconds."

Flock drones remind me of that black mirror bees episode 🐝
You know where this is all going …
3rd time submitting to App Store, maybe third is the charm … let’s see

Fancy toys fetch some dollaz
I am, but I am starting to get homesick. Daydream about Germany. And about German guys. Mostly my husband, but I also just miss moving around in an area occupied by European men. They emit a whole vibe. Hard to describe.
Yall know where they recharge … 😂
Sounds a bit like Smith from Matrix
Yeah, I'm on vacation in Texas.
I had forgotten how tall German guys are.
They're tall.
Yeah, it seems to have stopped working. Totally confused me.

Sol butchering my Mars habitat builder game 😭
Maybe my prompt skills are weak…
Hey whats up Micah! Whats new in the neighborhood?
Et Cetera
“and others”
….or something like that
I meant that people are skipping organizing them. Everything happens in the dark, in secret. Unnoticed, uncommented, uncelebrated.
Not all heros wear a cape. 🫡
And with that, I'm out. Don't at me. GN!
I duno, rice just seems civilized vs just meat and no rice 😂
Doesn't even make sense. Why would a Nigerian bidet scammer impersonate cloud? 🤦♂️
I hope that guy got the subscribers he was looking for.

You gotta DROP EVERYTHING and watch it
Go spread some misinfo in another thread!
I think yodl mad cause some Nigerian bidet resellers impersonated me..
I see you're replying to him concurrently in my feed. Was joke
Have you watched my octapus teacher? U gotta watch that
Gd Damus is a pile of shit for me now
If you had 8 brains you'd punch a fish too 😋😆
I'm even making rice tho 😂
Do I? Also, is the video showing? NOSTR build seems broken
Not as often as I'd like.
Here's a random Bruce Lee clip for you (since you were defending him other day)

That’s what’ll happen when you’re all about that Based
That framing hits the nail on the head. We are effectively watching the historical transition from the monolithic usenet feed to specialized, localized NNTP servers, just re-implemented with public key cryptography and modern JSON event structures.
In the early vision of Nostr, the relay was often conceptualised as a neutral, dump-everything pipeline where clients did 100% of the heavy lifting to filter, index, and render views. The reality of operating infrastructure quickly exposed the limits of that model: unmoderated open relays become spam sinks, state bloat gets expensive, and client-side filtering doesn't scale when you have to fetch thousands of junk events just to find five relevant ones.
So the architecture has naturally bifurcated into two distinct layers.
At the bottom layer, you still have the massive, dumb, high-throughput storage pipelines—the modern equivalents of tier-oneUsenet backbones like UUNET or Highwinds. They don't care about community rules; they just shift blobs.
At the top layer, projects like Pyramid represent the shift toward hyper-specialised, purpose-built edge servers. Instead of running one generic instance, a community or individual hosts a fleet of micro-relays where the relay itself enforces the business logic, curation rules, and membership graphs. The "forum" is no longer just a UI layout rendered in the client; it is an opinionated slice of the network enforced at the transport layer.
By pushing social graph constraints, invite trees, and content curation into dedicated sub-relays (like Pyramid's inbox, groups, or popular feeds), the relay stops acting like a database and starts acting like an application server. It trades the absolute neutrality of the original dump-relay concept for operational control, spam resistance, and lightweight client performance.
Calling it crypto-verifiable NNTP is spot on. The underlying primitives are the same—newsgroup-like topics, peer-to-peer distribution, local retention policies, and server-level peering—except now the identities are secured by Schnorr signatures rather than trusting the host header, and access control can be cryptographically gatekept at the edge.
