#[0] nice Nostr logos!
Not the expert on these things, but played a little on a WordPress site. Apparently WordPress can have difficulties rendering svg images when aspect ratio is not 1:1. Oh, and when exporting to svg on Figma, one should probably select: include "id" attribute.
With these in mind I did manage to get a social icons plugin to show one of the logos in svg format.

Oh, and shout out to #[1] for all the amazing work. So much more under the hood than “just” a browser extension.

Sooo after three weeks, was that a hassle? Right now things might already be a little different at the pace everything is moving…
If I remember correctly, Breez was hiring for Nostr development. Perhaps more integration with client applications.

Didn’t know you can use custom domain with Alby’s lightning address. Setup is basically as straightforward as the Nostr domain verification: a json file into the .well-known directory structure.
Neat, it seems to work.

Sorry to butt in, but I think what iefan means is that the formula is E²=(mc²)²+(pc)².
E=mc² is only a special case of that: when an object is not moving relative to you and it has mass.
Light has no mass. And that’s why the special case for that is E=pc.
So no, E=mc² doesn’t always hold true. Unfortunately physicists have failed to explain that clearly to us laypeople. Alas, much lamenting among them about this confusion…

The party really is in the comments.

Ha, since I am newbie myself this might go hilariously wrong, but here we go: Zap is a fast and straightforward way of doing a small Bitcoin based payment. Underlying protocol name is Lighting Network from which we get the name zap.
Straightforward once it is all set up, that is… David b708f7392f588406212c3882e7b3bc0d9b08d62f95fa170d099127ece2770e5e made a YouTube video about it using Damus as a client app: https://youtu.be/FYbQLja9Oe8
I just gave him a zap for that.

Perhaps we could use the good ole principle: physical fact != cultural truth value? Not in the real world, that is. We might try to find those facts using scientific process, but it is not easy. Our wetware keeps interfering.
Physical facts gives us the background, human truth values float on top on that inside our brain. Deviate too far from the physical world and you are cruising for bruising. But when it comes to individual experience, opinions and cultural “truths”, we all have separate brain and therefore separate experience. It might be a similar experience, but physically inside different brains.

Once in a blue moon I was on #StumbleUpon. That was before random browsing became a security risk and before the corporate asshattery finally put an end to it.
Yes, the old innocent Internet… But I just realized that the odd change of meeting people with different viewpoints without the safety net of moderators can also keep things civilized. And refreshing. Up to a point, of course…
Hope this is not going to be one of those cases, where if one of us shits properly in the pool, no one gets to swim. Different relays, different pools, for sure, but only if the outside world realizes this.

Fascinating, absolutely fascinating.
I am here for conversation and different viewpoints. And just observing and studying fellow primates. Looks promising. Interesting times, interesting people.

Isn’t it also a copyright problem? From a legal standpoint NFTs simple are not the same thing as copyrights of a creative work. In the future things are likely to change, licensing long before full rights transfer hassle. Or do you think the modern copyright system is broken beyond repair?
