I am going to push our Gaza Verified Emergency Appeal hard today as the situation in Gaza manages somehow to get even worse just when you thought it couldn’t.

What I really do like about the #Meshcore app is the ability to tell whether my messages are making it to the mesh. There are multiple ways to tell.
First is the display of heard repeats. That indicate that x number of repeaters have received and repeated the message.
The second is the explicit delivery confirmation in private message chats.
Thirds is the new way to di…
the "woke games detector"'s ULTRAKILL problem: there are some games they don't like just because the developer is vaguely progressive and the fandom is largely queer and makes a lot gay fanart of the characters but they have to come up with some 4d chess problem with the game itself
like ah yes the game about robot killing demons in hell and extracting their blood is woke because there's a blahaj easter egg and not because there's shitload of V1 x Gabriel yao…

The GOP measures a person's worth based on their WEALTH & that makes them 'superior' to the needy in their minds.
This arrogance creates intolerance & 'my-way-or-the-highway' indignance because they're also control freaks.
And that's why there's always an air of disconnected condescension around their actions.

Thomas voegtlin talks about nostr spam. It's very censorship resistance means spam can't be stopped by moderators.
One way to stop spam is require proof of work before your client accepts a message. A large difficult hash.
But big hashing machines are more available to spammers than people.
Can't use likes or zaps cuz they can be faked with sybil attacks.
Instead: notaries and proveably burned satoshis.
Your public messages are classified as ham rather than spam if you burn enough money.
Nostr event types to prove it are suggested. Including burning to upvote others messages
Don't think I like deliberately burning the money, and seems to me a web of trust might work without doing that? Pay to post also peanizes there poor.
But it isn't really burned here, it's shaed out to miners to continue a subsidy when the block rewards run out. So paying miners and these notaries rather than really burning. Okay. Maybe better, but still makes messages mostly for the rich?

I feel like this Stop Copaganda project from 2024 didn't get enough love. It certainly made me reflect on how I portray law enforcement. Particularly in Domestic Threats. Some police officers/agents are really trying to do the right thing and the system makes it hard. Some of them just do what they're told because they trust the system, without realizing they might be doing more harm than good. Some are more interested in getting status or power than worrying about morality. These st…
