Very, very cool! I've got to dig into this when I have a bit of spare time. I think P2P GPU compute organised over #nostr is an amazing idea. View quoted note โ†’

First asparagus harvest of the season from the #allotment! Always delicious with a dash of pink salt, black pepper and olive oil. image

Rocking my #Bitcoin hoodie today and thinking about wholecoiners... Latest data from Glassnode (March 2026) says 988,000 addresses hold 1 #BTC or more. Of course with segwit, multi-wallet usage, exchange custody pools, lost wallets, the number of actual individuals goes down. Let's say we're now down to 600-700K individuals who are wholecoiners. Wholecoiners are: - ~0.6% of all bitcoin owners. - ~0.008% of the human population: 1 out of every 12,300 people on Earth. - ~85x rarer than millionaires. The number keeps falling every cycle, not increasing: as scarcity in mining, lost coins, institutional custody take over. Wholecoiners are one of the most exclusive clubs on earth and gets more and more rare over time. Really makes you think about the economics of scarcity! :CatNerd: image

Thankfully the fake Wisp publisher doesn't seem to have malicious intent, and was done moreso by accident than on purpose. However this does kick up a whole bunch of questions for @Zapstore: - Shouldn't there be some kind of manual approval when app names collide with pre-existing ones? - How can you let a different publisher publish an app with the same ID `com.wisp.app` as a pre-existing, trusted package from the original dev @utxo the webmaster ๐Ÿง‘โ€๐Ÿ’ป ? - There are literally zero flags/alerts/warnings on the interface when browsing this duplicate app. Another example is Cake Wallet @Cake Wallet, for the past few versions Google has flagged this as a malicious app (it wasn't the case before), so I have avoided upgrading, even though I originally installed the zapstore version. If it's not fixed soon I will have to uninstall then re-install via Play or another market (annoying as then a full re-sync is required). To date I have enjoyed using zapstore, but I feel like this is a great lesson learned to tighten up some of the security measures so we maintain high trust in what is published there.

Update: if you run a relay and have the capability to block based on payload (i.e., filtering from event.content strings), this simple regex will stop all these bots: /^(UEFSUw|RkNLR)/ These two payload headers are used by all of them that I've found so far. After adding that to wss://nostr.superfriends.online, no more of those posts are getting through--at least for now. Likewise, if you're annoyed by seeing these posts on your feed and your nostr client can filter posts, add those to your filter list. #nostr #relays View quoted note โ†’

What type of payload is this and why are they spamming my relay and other public relays? Anyway, I'll have to ban these payloads because they're spamming too much. :RAGEY: #asknostr View quoted note โ†’

I haven't caught up fully yet to the latest episode, still on Season 1, but I'm enjoying this. I don't tend to listen to podcasts much these years, and audio drama is something absolutely foreign to me. But so far I'm liking it! View quoted note โ†’

Political positions aside, it just doesn't feel like a great idea from a decentralist standpoint. Having said that, I have a @Rizful.com lightning address because I don't want to deal with channels myself--couldn't one say the same risk applies regarding privacy? What about node centralization? I'm quite happy with rizful, by the way. Genuinely curious. View quoted note โ†’

My wife just sent me a picture of my daughter's portable toilet with a massive fucking turd in it. All proud. I'm sitting here eating my lunch looking at a picture of a massive log. Very nice. ๐Ÿš๐Ÿคข๐Ÿ‘Œ Parenting tingz. image

Jupiter + 4 moons tonight our in our backyard ๐Ÿ”ญ First time for my daughter viewing a planet through the 'scope too! It was pretty exciting. Really stunning to see. Fairly clear to see the moons all aligned, too! What surprised us was how "white" everything was, whereas in pictures you always think of Jupiter as being very brown/orange/red. (Picture somehow taken by my wife on her mobile, through the eyepiece.) image
