Good one 😆🫵 night night https://media2.giphy.com/media/xun2qNfnK1cV5r07GM/200w.webp
they are a traveling salesman at heart
btw derek, pro-tip. Get into the comments of these youtubers with your armada stuff:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g8dQBSKIGyc
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KDYfPXkUEm0
watch the video first and actually respond to something they said.
for instance that shorter one talked about the fact you have to download the desktop app to use it. So you can mention that armada is both a web app and a mobile app.
No need to thank me for fucking doing your work

...And so I hold her—
not with strength—
I have none left—
but with something older.
Primal. Anchored. Pure.
Something that says:
I am here for you.
And I'll always be.
Forever.
No matter what.

Have you not seen Toy Story 4?
He can fork right off.

Is that an example of a “monetary use”?
Hated season 2. Season 1 was gold
Yesterday i was monitoring the twitter thread of the announcement of Buzz, and i noticed there atleast start-ups that realized they were r3kt because Buzz was something similar to what they were doing/planning to do.
I was in a voicechat with the soapbox people at that moment and @npub1jvn…89sc responded that they were one of them. But she was wrong.
This is the nice thing about Nostr, is that because you are no longer offering a platform where its binary in terms of users being either on your thing, or on someone else's thing, and the biggest thing being the winner of it all.
No, instead, the users of your thing don't miss out because they are not on the other thing, and you never lost out in terms of competing. At any moment, you can have a better offer, and users can switch with very low to 0 friction. There is no 1 thing that is the winner, other than the standard* itself.
Nostr
*assuming people play nice and are thoughtfull in terms of those standards.

@npub1q3s…d26p do we have in view yet what all the weird bespoke/breaking choices are that Buzz made irt existing Nostr standards?
So he executed on his exit strategy, as a true buzzkill

Financial independence has a creative payoff that gets far less attention than early retirement: it can become a commission you give yourself.
Artists, musicians, physicians, and other professionals often face the same constraint. The work they want to master may not produce enough income right away, so immediate expenses keep deciding how they spend their time. FIRE changes that equation. Intentional spending and aggressive saving can build a reserve that supports your life while your craft develops. For me, bitcoin can be part of that reserve.
The result isn't a life without work. It's the ability to choose work for mastery, usefulness, or meaning without requiring every hour to pay immediately. You can practice longer, take a thoughtful risk, or pursue a project whose value arrives later.
That is a more compelling picture of financial independence than endless leisure. You're building enough ownership over your time to become your own patron. The portfolio matters, but the transformation is what the portfolio makes possible.
At current velocity im starting to consider us a break away internet civilization
"Small internet" as @npub1kk0…6xq2 calls it
throwing around long words are we?
I can’t even get zaps to work on it anymore. Is anyone working on a pro-level video streaming app for Nostr?
Forky has questions.

Paper Bitcoin Summer was waaaaay better than Forking Bitcoin Summer.
more variations of what is effectively cardboard
oh lord, someone gave Alex an idea again...hide yo kids, hide yo wife
Sir, the site buzzing your cpu is a feature, not a bug....well...also a bug i guess🤔🐝
Next time remember to tell it to make no mistakes.
are the hardcoded relays also fixed?
Sounds like being haunted by some ghost that has not even emerged yet. I much rather meet those complaints head on in the public channels, convincing the passive reader with superiour reasoning; those people that will complain for whatever reason will do so regardless, they are an opportunity to educate the rest.
What, are you scared? Why avoid this confrontation? We have all the best keyboard warriors im sure, we will pwn the shit out of trolls, im a level 99 oldfag, let them come.

Nostr
This was all foretold when they got rid of the Dollar Menu.
You probably meant to tag @nprofile…jd74.
Probably because nobody appreciated it or supported it. Like pretty much everything here.
Yo, since you’re back full time at @nprofile…rf3s, how’s about dusting off the old company npub sometime?
I just want someone, anyone, to build what nostr.band was trying to be.
First the Buzz team has some work to do to fix their Nostr stuff, because what is stated in their documentation currently does not reflect the reality of things in their software just yet. We can give them some slack (hehe), but if they don't do it soon enough they will be bad example of things that gets a lot of attention regardless and will be a first touchpoint for Nostr for many people and will cause discord (hhehhehehe) as a result.
@nprofile…jejf @nprofile…6u0j Is this a feature that could be built into nostrarchives.com or npub.world, maybe as a paid premium?
Another day without a GM or GN or anything. @nprofile…yaey what’s up? I thought you had more to say.
I don’t really understand what you’re asking.
That's faster and cheaper than I thought
Awesome, and thanks for reminding me to revisit this UX to see if there’s any way I can make it easier or clearer. As you can probably tell, this one was a struggle!
If you remove the account from the client’s switcher
and revoke all that app’s trusted settings and start again it should clear up.
Exactly. I grew up watching TV sitcoms with the same canned laughter (from dead people) after every stupid joke or reaction. The brainrot has always been there. It’s just more personalized now.
A 40% bitcoin drawdown can turn a FIRE plan into forced selling fast.
You can stack for years, hit your number, leave the paycheck, then watch bitcoin fall 75-85% while the mortgage and grocery bills keep coming. Conviction doesn't cover expenses. A withdrawal plan does.
The 4% rule tells you to save 25 times your annual expenses, but it was built from stock-and-bond history. Bitcoin has routinely suffered deeper drawdowns, and every dollar of spending requires selling part of the asset. That makes sequence-of-returns risk especially dangerous near retirement.
I ran a $1.5 million portfolio with $100,000 in annual expenses through historical bitcoin bear-market patterns. Under the model's assumptions, 100% bitcoin supported $111,816 a year. A 50/50 bitcoin-stock mix supported $195,216. The blended portfolio didn't win because stocks had the better expected return. It won because stocks were sold first, giving bitcoin time to recover instead of forcing sales near the bottom.
That buffer has a cost: less bitcoin means giving up upside when the bear never arrives. Your answer depends on your timeline and flexibility. Index funds, cash, yield instruments, lower spending, or temporary income can all build a bridge through the danger zone.

Get yourself a z.ai GLM API key, run it inside Claude CLI.
I never used Armada until now but I just opened it and sent a test message, and it signed right away. I’m also replying to you now on NoorNote. What version are you using? If it’s 1.3 or later this should not be an issue.
So, believe it or not, that’s actually a safety feature, not a bug. 😅
There's no way for Sidecar to detect which account you’re using inside the client. Sidecar can only sign based on the account it’s showing in its own chooser. So once two of your accounts have logged into the same site, Sidecar asks you to approve every event, even though you set it to trusted, because the client’s own account switcher can change accounts without informing Sidecar, which means you’d be posting or react as the wrong identity without even realizing it. (This was happening in an earlier version, and the current method is the fix.)
My recommendation is to only use Sidecar as your multi-account switcher and sign in and out of the client when you want to switch. Some clients like Primal (that don’t have their own multi-account switchers) just do this automatically on refresh. If a site already has two of your accounts on it, you can revoke one in Sidecar’s activity tab.
The other option is to set up unique browser profiles for each identity, each with its own Sidecar. I actually do this because I maintain a bunch of different npubs and it’s just cleaner that way.
Nostr is messy!
Testing now by replying to you on NoorNote from Sidecar.
Are you signed into the client with more than one account by any chance?
Buzz definitly needed to use Nostr because it is the underpinning of the entire architectural vision behind the product. No Nostr, no blossom, no ngit, no app interoperability, no sovereign identity...non of it.
All of it only makes sense from the paradigm that Nostr introduces, and the whole point of that paradigm is that all the other possible usecases of the protocol can tie-in to whatever it is this Buzz thing is doing, if not just from an identity andor socialgraph point of view, but potentially more.
Ergo, our entire civilization needs to be made aware of this paradigm, at least to the degree they have the intuition that when it says ''Nostr'' on the box, its works with all that other stuff that says ''Nostr'' on the box. In that regard its not ''written in Go'' its ''USB", such that you know you can connect your camera to your computer.
Whenever we get to the point that alteast to a small degree such understanding exists, the twitter thread of @npub1sg6…f63m 's announcement wont be filled by ''why not Discord'', ''Why not slack'', because they already understand how and why that is a retarded question.
