In my experience nostr suffers from one of the same issue as Fedi, onboarding the average person.

How many zaps can a pointless note like this get?

Lucky me. I'm stuck working with the most useless employee we have, all week. Probably the next 2 weeks. Feels like punishment.

Tried explaining to Amazon customer service that I was missing a single item from my package. They repeatedly apologized about my "missing package" and offered to ship it again. After trying for the 4th time to explain I was only missing one item, I decided to let them be stupid and just replace everything that already arrived. Thanks, Jeff.

Maeve may have a poultry allergy so we have to try her on a food not containing it for a while. One of her favorite things? DUCK. Poor girl.

All of my knives disappeared during our last move, which is a bummer. I picked up a few cheap EDC blades for now. A Cold Steel SRK-C & a SOG Instinct.

Ordered a pair of Soundcore Life P3i earbuds on sale for $33. My lovely daughter managed to leave my 2 previous sets of Soundcores, Galaxy Buds, AirPods & few cheap pairs of buds laying around and my dog chewed them all to hell. I've owned a fair amount of earbuds from different manufacturers & Soundcore takes the cake when it comes to good sound for a fair price.

The progress on mobile #linux is very usable. I used a #pinephone as a daily driver for about 2 years and my main complaint was speed (hardware issue) and battery life. The battery life improved and became less of an issue due to not checking my phone because of constant notifications and distractions. It's to bad more resources aren't available to further improve on this.

I name all my devices after different types of nuts. i.e. almond peanut acorn cashew

Thinking about dropping my VPS and using an old MacBook a1181 as a little home server. That might make running email a pain but I find myself using my Tutanota address more often anyways. I'll have to do a little testing first to see how things work.

I think she's slightly annoyed with me. 🤣 https://image.nostr.build/e2e0d78c2e2dfdc5c39c74434235466e653bbf8e614226892f49199dee021d6f.jpg#m=image%2Fjpeg&dim=768x1020&blurhash=_LDvl%5Ep1_NxZ%25LM%7BRP%25K%3FaIT%25KjYRjayW9MxMxRkM%7CozRkSQWFj%5DM%7CbIWBWBR*obaet7ozofocM%7BjXjFo%23xvt7kCWXRPjYozfia_oeR%2CR%2BogogozR*s%3AM%7CWBjYofWUaeoe&x=aa8147795cedfc5ffffb3695f5a4d561447efd6fd2ba4bd9e47844132715542c https://image.nostr.build/210b40d3e9b9952d64e0e154c2b1118251404f19c80fad9a173cd54bd2cbaa7d.jpg#m=image%2Fjpeg&dim=768x1020&blurhash=_QEfQZE5%3F%5EIq-%3Axuax%24%24%3FaIUkCxtWBt7act6MxtQRPWCa%23bdt8bIt6WBaxRjWVaxWUs-azazt7M%7BV%40jYRiWVjYofbIRkoJWCWBoLoLbIWCj%5BWCt7t7WXWBWBadj%5BoKj%5Bj%40&x=deca1084625b46d31523690355fbc86f9bae3c7e5948cbb5f043c6ba985390d1

Happy New Year nostrverse! ⚡⚡⚡

Nothing beats coming home and being greeted by your dog. The pure excitement they have when you return, like their world is complete again.

Wishing nostr & Fedi a super Merry Christmas! Give the gift of freedom and introduce you're family and friends to the network.

Has anybody used any of the dog dna testing services? I got a free one with a promotion and am curious if anybody has used them and gotten accurate results? I know the 2 dominate breeds that went into making my dog and provided them with zero information and no picture of her so I can compare the results with what I already know.

Hmmmm. Super weird that I can't successfully install LineageOS to this POCO X3 NFC. Other roms based on the same Android version and firmware install fine. Slightly annoying but it's not main device so I'll use what flashes successfully.

I might start using my Cash App card more often, especially to pay for planned expenses. Currently I have payment roundups that go into my savings account but just noticed with Cash App I can do Bitcoin roundups, which is kinda neat. I won't use it as my main wallet but the fact it can act as a checking & savings account, Bitcoin wallet and be used to buy and sell some stocks, is somewhat appealing.

Crazy that making a comment against Trump somehow makes you a Biden supporter in done people's eyes. As if it's impossible to dislike them both.

What if all of the VPN providers are secretly run by government entities and instead of helping to secure our data, we are just dropping it all into a funnel directly to them?
