I'm tired nostr... But I'm also happy to be on nostr but too tired to engage. What do I do..

With the constant barrage of ads and other similar messages that try to get our attention and manipulate us, silence, empty and 'being still' is soothing. Less is more. I need to up my #minimalism practice

I really like nostr. It lets me put long form text notes compared to something like X where I have to subscribe! So much for free speech Unfortunately not a lot of people here - and I'm not one to want to double post across platforms so I don't plan on it. Want to read my words? Gotta use nostr - but I do recognize the importance of being able to be heard on large centralized platforms. I'm obviously sticking with nostr. It's a little window to how the internet can and should be and no one should be on a centralized and private platform.

Remember folks, if you call someone and they put you on speaker - do not feel shy to ask if they have a smart home device in their location. Demand to be put on headphones! Who knows, you may even get them questioning their decision to bring such awful devices into their homes in the first place.

We are living in the construction of a massive-wide #AI fueled #surveillance system where we will become panopticon subjects that will 'behave' in a certain way. This forced behavior will define who we are because of the cascading effect of the self-regulation of panopticon subjects. I am also certain that these systems are fickle and not immune to being 'gamed'. Lots of promises of good behavior, safe spaces, and just mindless acceptance of rule. But there is no creation of safe spaces by surveillance. The products will be pushed, the profits will be made, and the promises will be demonstrated. Is this some kind of totalitarianism that is totally controlling of humans? Surprisingly, probably not. Profits and financial speculation are sustained by shortsightedness and pillaging of the public and common good. It's all fickle and all-assuming and there will always be opposition to this. The threat of automated panopticonism is real, and great powers will attempt to shape the world in its own image. But humans are creative, and we 'hack' through life and always manipulate our environments through our existence. Humans will always find a way to circumvent this system. The hackers ethic - we all have it in us to understand and manipulate something to our own desires. Nothing is complete, and nothing is ever 100% secure and accurate. There will always be noise. Embrace this noise; it creates the paths outside of this panopticon. #privacy

testing out monstr.land #monero nice.

in my opinion one of the great things about #monero is that it will force crypto to come to terms with its utility function. being delisted across centralized spaces will force crypto to realize its decentralized promises. it must embrace peer-to-peer practices. given various obstacles, if the battle is lost there, then there are greater problems facing crypto, as a whole, and not just xmr.

Being in an anonymous space forces vigilance. distrust almost everything, and that's a good thing.

Is there a service that is lime nostr.build but accepts #monero #xmr?

Is there a nostr client that let's you group different users and feeds Into different filter choices? #asknostr

I'm tired yawn
