My local farmers market is outdoors in a town that’s pretty much always windy. And every market there’s ladies trying to make their tents and tables
✨✨cute and dainty✨✨
only to have their stuff blowing away.
I get that wire jewelry and lace are hard to sell with brutalist decor, but y’all might want to consider less floof and more concrete blocks 😅

A follow-up to yesterday’s story.
The RCMP have no evidence, have filed no charges, the company is not Canadian, and they seized the customer’s funds, not just the company’s.
I’m getting flashbacks to the CRA seizing my money. “You MIGHT owe us, so we’re taking everything.” Straight-up theft.
This is a reminder to not trust your money to others. No banks, no exchanges, no “wealth management”, no retirement plans, no funds… The government is going to steal it and tell you it’s your fault.

I’m sure many books have been written on the subject, but it’s been my pondering this evening anyways.
Matthew 25:31-46 is a section some Bibles title as “The Final Judgment” where Jesus describes returning as King and separating those who did Good from those who didn’t. One of the lessons commonly taught out of this section is that Jesus is instructing us to provide for “strangers” and “the least of these” as if we are doing it for Jesus himself.
A hotly debated detail is who, exactly, Jesus was talking about when he said “strangers” and “the least of these”. I’ve seen all sort of interpretations ranging from “literally everyone” to “specifically the Samaritans”. Personally I’ve tried to focus on “those who can’t help / take care of themselves”.
My evening pondering has been this question: What about those who hate us and want us to die? Those who, when given the opportunity, are killing our wives, husbands, and children? Are we to risk the lives of those under our (Biblically mandated!) care to care for them? Are those people “strangers” and “the least of these”, or something else?

My theory is that these people know that cheap isn’t going to be good or fast but don’t want to acknowledge it. They know most of well-ordered society associates being outwardly cheap with being slimy, untrustworthy, and cheating, but don’t want to be seen that way, so they choose cheap then feign surprise at the results in hopes that their peers will assume they wanted to choose otherwise but couldn’t.

REEEEE This is centralization! REEEEE
*deep breath*
Now that I have that out of my system, I wonder if a self-sovereign way to do this would be a self-hostable “relay-relay”; a relay that your clients connect to that pulls from your chosen relays for them. If my understanding of WOT is correct it could maybe be built on top of that?…

Nah, “bribecoding” has a nicer ring to it and makes for a catchier hashtag. Like how I describe what I do as “merc-work“ instead of consulting 😝

In the “good - fast - cheap” triangle (I’d put security and privacy in the “good” category), fast and/or cheap will always win the majority. My worry is that Primal will become another PayPal. PayPal started as a credit card/bank alternative, until they went so far towards fast/cheap that they ended up becoming what they were originally an alternative to. Isn’t Primal with KYC and “oversight” just another Facebook?
But maybe that’s what the normies want. A Facebook clone without the hated-CEO-of-the-day…

Yes and no. How many times have we heard users scream “why does my video look like garbage when I post it?!”
I don’t think there’s a perfect solution but I like the idea of giving users an option along with a li’l education. Something like a toggle that switches between “higher quality / slower for users” and “regular quality / faster for users”? 🤔

I’ve put money on nothing happening. With the new rules a referendum is easier to trigger but 50+% of the vote is still required to pass a referendum, and more than that lives in the major centers. Good luck, and I hope you prove me wrong 🫡

Came back to zap this note because it sent me down the rabbit hole of downloading and self-hosting my Audible library. I used Libation to download, am hosting on my Plex server (Audnexus plugin for metadata), and Prologue (iOS) for my client.

Dylan Hollis (musician who started making baking videos during the lockdowns) released a cookbook called "Baking Yesteryear"; it's a collection of found recipes from the 1900s to the 80s based on his videos. His humour isn't for everyone, but the cookbook is pretty great. https://image.nostr.build/e5c51795f974235240d1ba4b95c7626c55e40d0823f1b2c4cd0e057a13e5f629.png

Down some more rabbit holes today. Building out my on-prem LN infrastructure and getting it connected to ✨everything✨ was the big one (and will probably never be truly “finished” 😅). Hopped on @npub1ve8…9ka6 too. BTCpay Server tomorrow.
