We’ve heard from people too nervous to set up a wallet because they don’t trust themselves to store one phrase forever. Still, for more than a decade, wallets have continued to build new features on top of that same fragile foundation.

notice how they didn't say they are, or aren't keeping your key on their servers or not
because obviously they must be, and obviously they don't require you to set some password to decrypt it, so they have you fucking key
but of course they aren't gonna say that because they want as many suckers as possible to sign up for this and dump shittons of SATS into it (oh no, not bitcoins) so they can bail themselves in when their entire scam gets revealed and their fiat bank balance goes tits up and they are in receivership, at least they can pay off their creditors with YOUR sats

friedrich hayek was a legend
he understood that the final boss for socialists was pattern recognition of data and that only a free market can do this
the socialist promoters think they can replace humans with data centers to capture data and see the patterns
problem is that silicon is at least a million times more expensive in terms of power input to do the same pattern recognition computation
they are gonna find out soon, and anyone who has been going along with this sham is gonna have egg on their face
as a computer programmer, i know that my brain can reason about code better than the whole set of computers in the world could possibly achieve, and it would take a human of at minimum my capability to be able to even codify that process into code
they think they can just scale it up from 2 year old child level and somehow they are going to beat millions of years of evolution of neurological pattern recognition encoding and recognition systems

i know it says something about german and latin yada yada but the spelling
personnes is the plural in french for person
the -el suffix is is -al in english and german, noun modifier to adjective
it is the masculine, -elle is the feminine, most words that end in -el are derived from french

i killed a rat today
it's not very often you are just walking along, minding your own business, and some pest is just sitting there like it was stunned or something
it was a very pretty little rat, very clean, beautiful brown fur
it bit me as i tried to crush it to death with my boot, and that prompted me to target its' head because i did not like the squals it made
i felt like a murderer after this incident
i suppose you might say it's fate would have been worse had it been a hungry full grown male cat instead of me
still felt horrible killing this little animal

i saw a good article yesterday that basically said that "neocon = fascist"
a notable thing that i saw all around the region near Bologna, in Italy, was these labels and signs and some where on the ground some were on walls "private property"
fascists pretend to believe in private property, except when it doesn't suit them, then you must give up your property for the Fatherland
and that "who" is the council, but otherwise "you own your business"
so when communists look at free market libertarians, they just see the private property signs and say "ah, fascists"
it was the neocons that started all the shit in the middle east, and that's because they are aligned with the neocons in Tel Aviv who have been wanting to declare the entire persian gulf to be Greater Israel since way back.
and it turns out that the worst fascists are actually Talmudists, and they want to make war on muslims AND christians both, and they don't care what you think you are, you are cattle and you must obey, like the "proles" in 1984, whatever you do, they don't care, so long as you show up to work in the factory. Probably better if you are drugged up THX1138 style even, so they can look down on you for compromising all of your standards and morals, in addition to not being from the right family.

http api like the one i made
badger has a good read cache on it as well, and it's designed to split the read/write load mainly in favor of writing indexes because events don't change, also, scanning the key tables is fast because it's not interspersed with value read/write

i am in no fit state to do nothing right now lol... i hope i'm gonna be better tomorrow morning because i have work to do
i have utterly wasted my whole weekend trying to get realy working and i smoked last friday just around midday
oh well, i guess that was expected, i did basically tell myself "well, you need as much time as possible so you will be able to work by monday" and then i was like "ok, we aren't going to buy any more cigarettes"
right now is the worst of it... i dunno if i'm bronchoconstricted or just in some kind of panic state, my back is tense that's for sure
can't seem to relax at all... and not in the "relax" way as in to get comfortable doing anything on a sustained basis

so, since the clients are retarded about auth, i think, since they do auth, but then forget to send the event again, i will add an unapproved queue to the socket so if it happens to auth, the events get saved, anyway
i mean, seriously, jumble, coracle and nostrudel all do the same thing, send event, then realy sends closed auth-required then they auth and then... silence, and then usually they disconnect the socket in time for you to try and send again... so now, it can just save events if it gets auth
idk even what to say, do you client devs actually test this?

my relay is buggy too, drives me nuts when i can't figure out what's going wrong

2025-05-24 03:01:26

last few days #jumble has been getting super buggy and failing to load feeds
i'm back to #nostrudel specifically https://next.nostrudel.ninja which actually seems to be an old, better version of nostrudel anyway.
getting quite sick of clients pushing bugs to prod man, really
my relay has bugs too but my "prod" is a testing deployment, and this morning i just squashed another bug
would help if i could get more testers tho, relays bugging doesn't affect the user as much because they are not a single point of failure, and as a bonus, i get bug reports without anyone having to do anything other than just adding wss://realy.mleku.dev to their relay list
the benefit to the users who do this is that #realy will be battle tested and finally be able to do what i want it to do
i kinda have in mind eventually to create a mechanism whereby users can define lists of other relays where they post so that realy can run a spider that opens up a subscription to other relays to catch events containing their npub and pull them in so they can actually just have one realy in their relay list and they see everything and the client only pulls one copy of events at all times
this would solve a lot of the issues of bandwidth burn for people using #amethyst as well not that i expect i will get any cooperation from vitor the great and majestic android client dev

that's why i say the smartest sharding strategy is to put users on maybe 2-3 relays and then the relays forward queries for stuff they don't have, cache it, and next time can get it
you have to deal with the one hit wonder problem but aside from that, there's no real reason why the entry points to the data set need to be narrow and fast

2025-05-23 15:49:57

- reply

yes, this is just a matter of building out a query forwarding mechanism into the relays, so they can all keep the hot stuff, and then, they just need a way to expire that shit

2025-05-23 15:41:09

- reply

stateless front ends can't cope with a multiplicity of data stores, so theres' that
there is also the fact that users generally cluster around a section of the data set and this can then be easily the shard they are interested in
generic scaling solutions always start with the assumption you only enter the data from one point, that is stupid because there is billions of us humans, we don't need to concern ourselves with the same things all the time
fiat thinking. followers, sheep, i would say "idiots"

2025-05-23 15:20:32

NFDB is a vertical scaling solution
nostr is about horizontal scaling

coal and charcoal are the most dense energy sources when oxygen is freely available, and charcoal is the best because it has already had the sulfur and nitrates driven out of it in teh process of producing it
i think gas has a big advantage though because especially methane is the closest to ideal for a 1:1 ratio of output CO2 and H2O so its combustion is very efficient
the main losses in these generators is waste heat, a water cooling system that heats useful hot water would probably push your ratio up a lot
you could go even further by capturing the H2O and CO2 and separating them and feeding one to your indoor garden and the other into the water supply, and the heat that is transferred out of the water condenser can be used to heat water or warm the air
and this all is based on the efficiencies of a piston driven ICE
i had a vivid experience of how much heat is wasted in electricity generation when i was in Romania some years back, being spattered with the condensed water coming out of the cooling tower of a power plant, i was like "there is so much energy going to waste here that i'm being rained on".
in bulgaria, they redirect that waste heat to distributing it to the commieblocks in nearby suburbs to run hot water systems and steam-driven heating radiators. the efficiency of bulgarian (and probably there is other places in eastern europe that do this) power generation is probably the highest in the world, and their primary fuel is coal. and they generate so much electricity that they sell it to most of their neighbours

they also call them "parameterized replaceable" and they make sense in that they create a secondary link between them to decide whether to allow replacing and deleting the old version

not only that, because i'm a relay dev, and constantly watching logs of what the client is doing, the number of times i see jumble pushing encrypted events of configuration events and mute lists also makes me really wonder what you are talking about, and maybe you have somehow forgotten about my issue, ongoing, with the lack of ability to disable private mutes in jumble?
this is a feature that kills all of the benefits of jumble for me as a relay dev because i depend on public mute lists to implement a blacklist for pubkeys on my relay, as soon as alexandria is into release i'm not going to be using any clients funded by opensats, for reasons of the endless instability and lack of minimal features required for my work, i know that stella cares about what us relay devs think because she knows that we are building the foundations of this protocol, and ignoring it is like expecting a building to stay up without laying foundations to stop the ground shifting and collapsing the walls

so the subject is the shitty performance of web browsers at computing ECDH shared secrets?
i already had this out with hzrd149 about the subject and he was getting flak from a lot of people about not enabling a policy of decrypting all messages
it's quite hilarious anyway because so few clients even support DMs properly, that i abandoned even using nostr DMs about 6 months ago because they are so unreliably implemented
if this is what the complaints are about, then i see how it came to be that client devs have abandoned supporting DMs, why jumble doesn't support them. the signer has no complaints about allowing me to forever allow decryption requests, i just utterly fail to see what your and hzrd's point is about this subject
i could be wrong but i'm pretty sure even that the signer extensions are even implemented in native code and are actually quite fast

2025-05-20 15:59:01

- reply

no, because it's very unclear and to me it just sounds like you are complaining about signers being burdensome on users, and outside of your control as client dev
i think i made the point pretty clearly that you DON'T have to kow-tow to the idiotic consensus that you "must use detached signers" for it to be a secure app, the only real concern is that users may become complacent about rogue apps, but equally they could become complacent about signers if more of them existed, so really the problem is moot, eggs, basket, same same
imagine how it is as a relay dev when for 6 months of the time i was in development with #realy, i couldn't find a client that actually let me point at my relay and ensure it was even working??? it just seems like a petty complaint to talk about UX of detached signers when you do have the option of controlling that yourself as client dev, not only that, you could bundle your own signer, there is already several forks of nos2x and you could just make your own that has sane policies built into it that fit your needs
what is it that i'm missing here?

2025-05-20 15:43:52

- reply

clients must sign the events or the relay will not accept them, unlike clients, relays don't have the ability to skip that step
the signer is the issue then, but i personally dispute the theory that a web app can't be trusted to keep keys
most shitcoin web apps keep keys in the browser, there is strong isolation in web browsers now in part because of the amount of apps now existing that need to make and check signatures, i mean, the app i'm building part of the back end infrastructure for right now even uses a third party web service called web3auth that secures the key for users, i mean, lol, nostr devs worrying about their singular client app leaking secrets is quite laughable, and then on top to be complaining about then how signers, which are supposed to implement policies for signing, both bunkers and extension signers, i fail to see what the basis is for the complaint
i'm inclined to even say that if i was to build a web based client (and i'm part way through building a bunker) that i'd probably retain the option of the user being able to sign in with an nsec
the danger of breach is way overblown, browsers are not as insecure as they were even just 5 years ago, and back in 2016 i was using a web app that signed events to publish to a blockchain forum system was all there and literally zero incidents of people losing control of keys. 9 years ago.

i think i will be fine out here far from the madding crowd, if the whole system breaks down i know i would be able to rely on my neighbours as well as help them in ways that would make me a valuable member of the community, i think they already do recognise my value because i keep to myself, i'm bringing money in from outside, and i'm polite and friendly and diligent
whether or not i see my end before this is all said and done, or not, doesn't really matter. He has the power to bring us the reward we stacked up with our life of seeking to uphold the truth and stay with the light, and walk the path that was trod before us by the King

the real reason why nostr is struggling to get userbase is that the protocol is being designed by front end developers who have no experience of dealing with hackers and spammers
the lack of qualified voices in the nostr establishment will eventually condemn nostr to the dustbin of history when a sufficient number of improved and more secure client and relays are built and begin to get commercial deployment
but nobody cares

it's the distros that are the problem, mainly, and i think the kernel devs are a bit culpable as well
linux went woke when linus stopped being salty and the whole project got coopted by DEI bullshit, and the kind of mentality of people who are woke are not even aware of the history of repeated attempts to quietly roll out back doors that especially Intel are guilty of, or the number of bugs that they baked into silicon
there's a reason why us AMD fans are salty, and why conservative developers have an axe to grind with the tech establishment
my grievances go all the way back to the asset stripping of Commodore at the peak of the Amiga's history, my endless hours of suffering with microsoft's monopoly operating system, to the point where i literally started to work as a tech because i knew that there was an endless supply of people with problems with it

i just don't think client devs are qualified to speak about the subject of spam mitigation countermeasures, let alone mitigating impersonation attacks or sock puppets
i find it incredible that you don't even have experience with running an SSH server on a VPS and have never looked at the endless logs of attackers trying to breach your server with common passwords
it's not optional, and your comments, and hzrd149s demonstrate why a network protocol designed by client devs is going to be a failure

sounds cool but my main concerns are adequate hardware support... even a year after getting an RX 7800XT there is still some holdouts that don't give adequate support for this AMD hardware, and not having HDR support was a big irritation since i have an OLED monitor
struggling for several days just to get a display on this thing a year ago has left scars

i'm getting a little concerned about the uptick in solar storms causing power outages... i think they are probably gonna scrap the cyber pandemic maybe or just modify it to try and make it seem like we have to further reduce our use of electricity for whatever reason, i mean, power lockdowns? all the places that have got remotely accessible power systems for reading power usage, i'd be willing to bet they go two way - as in they can artificially suppress power usage at will, if they want to
it won't affect me out here in the boonies, apart from the actual power network getting smacked but it's gonna affect the whole internet in a bad way even without them leveraging this to perpetuate their population control agenda.
the thing that's hard to figure out though is they have to somehow suppress the part of the story that is that this uptick in radiation hitting us and the fast movement of the magnetic poles of the earth is outside of our control, they need to spin some bullshit story that we are somehow responsible for this, even though there is zero known pollution impacts on the ionosphere, because it's been some decades since the worst ozone depletion chemicals were eliminated from industrial use - are they going to spin this as a way to shut down the meat industry? it seems likely that is gonna be one of their angles for sure
it's already driving me so nuts that i practically am living on a diet of fish and eggs now, it's just not even worth my time to try and find actual beef in the stores, and i can't stand the taste of veal
this next 6 months is very likely to see maybe a dozen or more widespread power grid failures, i am not liking the prospect of what could come out of this

i finally had got tired of hearing my cat coughing... it first started when i was using some shitty absorbent litter with these blue grains among the grey, and he hasn't stopped coughing fairly regularly since
i decided that it's probably because there's a lot of dust in the air and this place has very little adequate ventilation without enabling him to escape outside, so i got not one but TWO filters that have HEPA, carbon, ionizer and a UV zinc catalyst, and will put one on each floor of the house, one in the bedroom, which has only one opening, and the other down in the centre of the kitchen
hopefully this solves the problem
my cat is a little sickling... when i got him, he was in a pretty bad state with ear infection, severe gingevitis and a chronic throat infection, he had been clear of the cough for some time but i feel like the long term antibiotic use has weakened his immune system and now he can't tolerate the dust, and i know that if the air is cleaner he will have less strain and finally maybe be fully happy little cat all the time
he plays all the time now, just he sometimes has a coughing fit, maybe 7 times a day or so, and i know it's gotta be unpleasant for him... in a week or so i'll have this air filter, the pots of grass i'm growing should be bedded into the pots well enough i can let him have at it, and maybe eventually the landlord will actually install the insect screens on the windows and i'll also be able to open up the ventilation especially when there is a good breeze on... the last week of weather has been very still air and mostly quite warm and probably a lot of dust blowing over from the south, as you can see that warm air is blowing in that direction by the way the rain clouds are being driven away from the shore
the air quality in this place is not the best because of the lack of windows, and people on this island don't seem to really pay much attention to good ventilation... many houses that are left to sit, even on the upper parts of the south of the island get really bad mold growing all through them because of the high humidity from the ocean winds
well, anyway, it's done, and soon everything should be dandy for little #mochi the #catstr, which will make me happier too

i was able to install fuse 2 so problem is solved
gnome really irritates me ever since they made version 4... you can't change the goddamn colors of the window frames and people even were complaining that they changed it from a neutral or warm colour to a blue tinted fucking colour in the current version, 48, which is on ubuntu 25
the HDR support is good though, although i dunno even if any of my games actually support it because it took so long for HDR support to be implemented on linux by gayland
i was pleased tho i did find a solution to the issue with night light not working, you have to go to the colour calibration settings for the displays and set a profile and then it works
hopefully this is gonna mean improved sleep for me when i work into the evening

yeah, that's because none of the relays actually have search implemented, that got partitioned into this nonsense called DVM and i'm probably the only relay dev who has actually implemented search as per NIP-50, well, will be, soon
and the reason is because opensats and jack and the rest are not paying anyone to develop relays, even though many nips implicitly require features to be added to the relay to implement the NIP. pretty lame, as it is i'm building it entirely on my dime though partly because i find my fiat mine job intensely boring and tedious and the whole business is tied to shitcoins which irks me no end

realy is gonna have a full text search in the very near future, it's implemented but not integrated and tested
still have issues with some clients though, coracle android doesn't talk to my relay correctly as it should, on web it's fine, jumble is fine, nostrudel is fine
the complexity of the websockets is total garbage, i bet primal skipped that shit for their search function and used trad HTTP as well

it already has the scheme in front, and i don't think normal browser can resolve that URL because it does not follow standard, long established syntax, they MUST have some broken function generating those links because that definitely does not resolve as a URL
i can even see that in the preview link that the browser doesn't understand it

so, jetbrains don't provide a .deb, but instead an appimage, which doesn't work with ubuntu 25 because ubuntu 25 has version 3 of fuse and not version 2

Also among tech people there, a lot speak almost perfect English English, due to the extensive number of British English schools there. This was also why a lot of things point to him being European.
