Almost every single time I took at face value and repeated what the corporate media said, I ended up embarrassed how untrue or gaslighting it was with just a cursory examination. It’s absolutely incredible to me how many people *live* by this and don’t even comprehend that they’ve never verified anything. When you call them out, they literally say “but this person said it! You can’t handle facts.” Perfect Dunning Kruger, they are too stupid to even know that they are incapable of genuine thought and their entire worldview is an appeal to authority.

This is what happens when you divorce the customer from the service, stick a bureaucracy into every single decision, create explicit control mechanisms for incumbents, subsidize the ever loving crap out of insurance and medical debt, and replace personal care with checkboxes, paperwork, and “standards.” You obliterate the service, and create an astonishing grift for completely useless and wasteful jobs.

Anyone have any clue who might hold wtfhappenedin2021.com domain? Would it happen to be any of you autists? #grownostr #asknostr

Is there a way to post something and specifically mark it “sensitive”? OR is there a NIP or something for that, even so that if someone I follow marks something as “sensitive” then I automatically will treat it that way as well? I think having simple filters for a global unfiltered network would be highly valuable. You could literally follow “ratings” and manage your and/or your kid’s experience that way. It would crowd source the blurring out of adult or just horrible content.

My immediate thoughts on the Trump assassination attempt: • It’s not uncommon for assassination attempts and terrorist attacks by intelligence agencies to fail because they often nurture literal insane people to do their dirty work for them. • The idea that this is PR or staged is an enormous stretch, imo. He seemed to have actually gotten hit in the ear. The idea that he let someone shoot him in the ear, or he cut himself or faked it to get attention — when he is not having ANY problem at all getting all the attention he wants — is a little much for me.

This #nostr thing is really popular! Maybe we should all go check it out? 😲😆 View quoted note →

If someone doesn’t like you, that doesn’t mean you are oppressed. No one has any obligation to like you, or even be nice to you. And if you angrily demand that they must like you or refer to you in a specific way, you only prove them justified in their feelings.

Trump is speaking at Bitcoin2024?

Can’t say @gladstein didn’t have his eye on the trend that this was likely to take from the very beginning. Statists gonna state. View quoted note →

I was being very serious about this. Who has any experience with @ZEUS and/or Lightning wallets and wants to look at integration here? I actualy think it should be relatively simple with what has already been built. For reference👇🏻 Pears.com Holesail.io View quoted note →

I wouldn't say the conclusion is so simple as "don't install Signal" because it remains superior to typical alternatives (i mean if you're gonna use text or Telegram instead, just use Signal), BUT this is a very important security consideration. From @npub1exwk...8x90 ---------------------------------------------------- "Don't install @SignalApp for macOS, it is not secure. I carried out this small experiment: - I wrote a simple Python script that copies the directory of Signal's local storage to another location (to mimic a malicious script or app) - I ran the script in the Terminal and got a copy of my Signal data on my Mac - I booted a fresh macOS installation in a virtual machine - I transferred the copy of Signal's data to the VM and placed it where Signal expects it: ~/Library/Application\ Support/Signal - I installed Signal and started it - Signal started and restored my session with all the chat histories 😳 - I exchanged a couple messages with a contact from the VM and it worked 😳 - Then, I started Signal on the Mac - I got three sessions running in unison: Mac, iPhone, and VM 😳 Messages were either delivered to the Mac or to the VM. The iPhone received all messages. All of the three sessions were live and valid. Signal didn't warn me of the existence of the third session [that I cloned]. Moreover, Signal on the iPhone still shows one linked device. This is particularly dangerous because any malicious script can do the same to seize a session. Perhaps this flaw is what makes some users think that Signal has a "backdoor" as it is easy for sophisticated attackers to target a victim who's using the Mac app and see their chats. (The same may be also true for the Windows app) #privacy #security" ------------------------------------------------ "This video shows that @signalapp (7.15.0) on macOS stores photos and docs sent through the app locally without encryption. Worse, the files are stored in a location accessible by any app or script. However, text messages are stored locally in an encrypted DB."

The #Bitcoin CEO has announced a full proof quantitative easing program. They will be issuing 1 trillion in tether in order to buy BTC in a virtuous loop that will secure a permanent floor at 58K gang. Don’t worry everyone, funds are being deployed!

I have been analyzing the engagement on my posts and I’m convinced that I’m being shadow banned on #Nostr

Isn’t it crazy how the movement for “inclusiveness” and “tolerance” has become the most excluding, hateful, selfish, and intolerant bullshit ever? 🤔🙃 View quoted note →
