The Flatpak installation of Obsidian takes up 627.1 MB but the Gimp only needs 257.5 MB? The V8 Javascript Engine and its consequences have been a disaster for humanity...

If your code won't run on anyone else's machine but your own, it's not really open source

At least a third of the posts I see on the bird app now are people either complaining about its current owner or kissing his ass

LMAO

The bird app is pure slop now, but it's still hard for me to recommend nostr to many of my frens there because it still lacks a few things: - decent private Group Chat - libtards to mock in those private Group Chats - fag friendly onboarding (based gay guys aren't very tech savvy) The first is easily solved, the second is more a feature than a bug and the third is a question of onboarding. It's my 2025 resolution to bring my frens along, but with these guys you only get one shot at it, so I need to make it count!

For me, the biggest realization of 2024 was that I had been sleeping on bitcoin for all the wrong reasons. I'd believed the FUD which had stopped me from looking too deeply and the behavior of shitcoiners made it worse. It wasn't until I worked on a project with a old skool hodlr and fellow activist that I learned that bitcoin was more than just another cryptocurrency, that it was a whole philosophy and one that actually vibed very much with my own. Satoshi wrote a manifesto in code and built the most powerful freedom movement the world has ever seen. It's not just that bitcoin was the first, but that it was designed to liberate us from the tyranny of the state and the banking cartels that makes it different from all the rest. The frauds, the rent seekers and the naysayers will come and go, but Bitcoin is here to stay.

Asado argentino

Buen día Nostr! Ya estoy con mi familia argentina para celebrar el año nuevo - mucho caos, asado, vino, alegría y amor - pura vida!

The rack ears for these power strips cost $100, so I just 3D printed some instead.

My wife has been a #bitcoin skeptic since before I met her, but today she sent me this:

I know quantum computing is fake and ghey because the people behind it almost certainly believe that covid was real

Trapped

This account is now a Quantum-Computing Skeptic account. I think it's all vaporware and the "science" behind it is unprovable fancy math that belongs in a Marvel movie. I'm so certain of this that I'm staking everything on it (all in on Bitcoin)

Going to be booking some travel soon - anyone have any experience - good or bad - with any of the travel agents like Travala or Destinia that take Bitcoin? #asknostr #bitcoin #travelnostr

Perusing recipe websites and it occurred to me how Nostr solves the "death by a thousand ads" problem. You don't have to rely on the scraps from the ad giant's tables when visitors can zap you directly. Value for value #V4V let's take back the internet baby!

Looking through some of the Javascript the kids are writing these days and thinking to myself...
