Perhaps I should make a game in the future where the more deceptive framing you do the higher your score becomes. Amazing marketers would be at the top of the leaderboard x3

My friend and I felt deceived on the pricing of Umbrel Pro. While wording is technically correct, what we thought "oh wow, $700 for a pc+32tb??" then a few days later when said friend wanted to get it, they realized it was BS, where $700 is for the device without any storage and adding one 4 TB stick is adding $500 to the total price. The correct transparent/clear representation of how it should have been on the Umbrel page would be something like the second image (bottom/right). Said friend has now lost trust in the Umbrel company because of this appearance of deception.

Not sure why I didn't realize this before and why I've been fighting with mobile phones to NOT kill my signer app: Fuck mobile apps being a consistant server, that's a battle I don't want to tackle. I'll just considering its connection short-lived and tell users that "it is what it is, blame phone producers for not giving you the power to keep apps alive". I'll build a desktop nostr remove signer, or find one and fork it to my liking. perhaps electron based so one code-base/repo and build for multiple OSs. Perhaps have a build for umbrel and star9 (and... cloudron) so that people who use those can use it as well. Man... this is a load off my mind now. Ostriche Chrysler.

Here's a functional demo of NIP-SHORT (Updated example link: https://jdnn.top/notes/enAbandonAreaD2qqr6437c )View quoted note →

ok, DNN IDs/TLDs are now: n{Word}{Word}{n}{Letter(s)} > example: nAbilityZooKD instead of n{3Letters}{Letter}{n}{Word(s)} > example: nABCeAbsurd Updated the forked browser to be able to parse this new encoding. Also updated/expanded the Awarenes DB to be more rebust for moderation marking (of a domain or a whole TLD is spam/scam/malware or adult, so OSs and/or browsers can optionally filter them out. (Untested). I've also impleneted NIP-SHORT i shared some time back, to shorten nostr event addresses, on the fork of jumble, check out this example short link: https://jdnn.top/notes/enAbandonAreaD2qgv59a9a I've posted an initial draft of NIP-NSP (Nostr Silent Payments) to be implemented at a later date (this is just the first draft, and it'll most likely be heavily modified):

DNN - A decentralized, Bitcoin-anchored naming system for nostr and the web.

Now I need to fix the my signer's nip-46, and give more attention to the discord alt soltuion.

Is DEG Mods the only nostr client that handles media like text posts in regards to censorship-resistance? In DEG Mods, it has a system/flow set in place where when an image (or any file) gets uploaded, it tries to upload said image/file to multiple blossom servers, and logs the sources, then does a hash check on fetch/download to verify authenticity. Meaning: If a source/host deletes an image/file, the system would try to find the image/file on other blossom servers and fetches it when found, then hashes what it found and match-check it with the hash address in the link. From what I can see, most nostr clients upload an image once and there is know scan/search function or hash check? If no or few clients do this, then this is something that must be changed. When I have time (and when i remember x3) i'll add tickets to nostr client repos to add suchs systems/flows to acheive media censorship/failure/maliciousness resistance (or at least try to), or hopefully others publish those tickets instead.

Privacy, anonymity, etc, are things that aren't available and aren't practiced by the 99% (or more) of people, and you can't make those people move towards privacy and anonymity and so on, to make them as proffecient as the 1% or 0.1% that know how to be private, be anonymous, be as free as possible. That's the reality of things. So what can be done? Make products, goods and services, tools, etc, that are so good and market it and conduct business in a way that it will become mainstream, where those products makes it so that their users are, in effect, as close as possible to being private/anonymous/etc as the 1%/0.1% of those users that care about these things. Want the majority to start using your awesome nostr app that has the best privacy, security, anonymity, freedom in the market? Then make it the best possible app out there that out-values all of its competitors, with better marketing, as well as have as many good business deals/partnerships as possible, to achieve that highest possible adoption rate and overtake the market. This is REALLY hard, but that's what must be done to achieve the awesome results we want, the reality we want and not the hell reality we're in or going into.

I can't be there, so I'm hoping I can "finish" DNN and release what I have, horribly coded I'd imagine as it was vibed (and probably also not structured well as I'm no expert in the field), and hope a few start exploring it, implement it in their nostr clients, see if this fits with their ideas/projects in terms of being rid of ICANN-DNS (and a path to be rid of ICANN-IANA), and start a continous back and forth to make it better =3 What I mean by "finish", is to release the code for: - DNN node and a guide to have it up on a server (not sure if with or without the updated awareness system, to deliver a similar value like what 1.1.1.2 and 1.1.1.3 does, if not then 'planned updates' it goes in x3) - An updated PWANS signer app, that fixes the currently broken NIP-46 (that i thought I fixed =/) - The Daemon, to handle resolving DNN address and manage SSL/TLS certs for it (at least the Windows version with hopes for the linux version too) - The Demin browser, which is a fork of the Min browser that has DNN resolving and ssl/tls handling for it, hopefully with an overview guide on implementing DNN support for it on browsers (don't think so, but will see, perhaps just a basic general one) - JumbleDNN, which is a fork of Jumble that adds DNN support as well as NIP-UPV2 (traditional username and password, evolved, on nostr), hopefully with an overview guide on implementing DNN support on nostr clients I'd probably also make a rough overview video for the whole project, and try to present the high value offering this project brings to the nostr and dns worlds, and aiming to help people make it 'click' for them. (Side note: I still giggle every now and then because got this slave domain:
