I'm not seeing how BlueSky is more capable than Nostr from a technology POV. In fact it seems to be buggy and lacking features. Meanwhile everyone I see posting there seems to be thankful to have a refuge away from Twitter while ignoring the fact the network frequently fails.

I have been occupied and missed stuff. What is blue sky? Does it have Nostr compatibility?

The maxis are now tree huggers while Greenpeace wants nuclear shuttered in favor of more coal. Weird timeline.

Facebook renamed the company with the goal of making a fake world. Twitter renamed the company with the goal of doing everything. Neither of these plans seem like what users want.

Big Mac price in the US is up 22% since before the pandemic.

Bitcoiners should ignore the attention seeker acting out of ulterior motives. He's been mostly an unhelpful antagonist of Bitcoin over the past decade. Bitcoin worked just fine despite his best efforts. Being rich doesn't make him better at predicting the future. Ignore.

According to Google Project Zero they discovered 0-day "Internet-to-baseband remote code execution" affecting many millions of Samsung and Pixel 6+ modems. Read it for yourself. It sounds very bad. If you have an affected phone you may want to turn off your SIM card because the recommended "turn off VoLTE and WiFi calling" is impossible for many of these phones after they removed the VoLTE option back in 2021. Only thing you can do is turn it off and put pressure on the vendors to fix it.

The writer claims it's already patched by Google in the March 2023 patch level. Unfortunately that patch had been withheld from Pixel 6* due to bugs so the blog is incorrect about this already being fixed for Pixel owners. It sounds like Samsung has a much bigger mess due to the wider variety of phones, firmwares, and providers for which they must now rush an update without breaking it. Not an easy task but they must do it. Don't blame Google for releasing this advisory. Samsung had months to respond in a timely manner. Do blame Google for failing to protect their own customers prior to their own advisory. I like Pixel and I want them to do better.

Satoshi wouldn't use lawsuits. Only Fake Satoshi uses lawsuits.

Management of a small bank told me this. Aside from targeting "crypto" beyond the scope of the law (Operation Chokepoint 2.0), he's also mad that responsible banks who wisely avoided long dated HTM securities are being punished by withdrawals as depositors flee to large banks for safety. They did everything right but only the big banks benefit from the moral hazard of these bailouts.

My yard guy is hustling to stack sats. In the past 30 minutes he's been disrupted five times by neighbors asking for his services next. Rather than gambling with token speculation he's out there creating value in the real world.
