As a paying customer, I wasn't expecting this so thank you! Can you expand more on your gut feeling? Also, I have different security expectations on Linux vs MacOS. Would you ever consider open sourcing the daemon?
F-Droid is littered with dead-end pet projects and no easy way to filter them out. Instead of wasting time on Filecoin pipe dreams, they should just fork Modrinth https://github.com/modrinth to handle Android apps instead of Minecraft mods. The difference in usability is night and day: https://modrinth.com/mods
Unlike web scraping where spaghetti logic is required to follow abstracted JS links, archival of nostr events can be as simple as running a relay and mirroring blog content.[1][2] nostr does a lot of what NNTP did but with additional flexibility.
I regularly find myself on the internet archive hoping to find a working copy of a page created ten-plus years ago. Page rot, SEO spam, walled gardens, and AI generated nonsense are all converging to suck the value out of the WWW.
Projects like this give me a little hope that blogging can make a comeback. NIP-13 [1] also has the ability to use POW to limit bot activity. Thanks for sharing!
I frequently kept a twitch pop-out in the corner of my screen throughout the day. When uBlock stopped working, I almost immediately stopped using the site. Video interruptions are pretty awful for live content where channel switching is a regular occurrence.
I think this is the key takeaway for me at least. If we don't blow ourselves up first, the sun will basically blast us into the stone-age every 6000 years at best or 200 years at worst.
"Our method predicts that SC25 could be among the strongest sunspot cycles ever observed, and that it will almost certainly be stronger than present
SC24 (sunspot number of 116) and most likely stronger than the previous SC23
(sunspot number of 180). This is in stark contrast to the consensus of the
SC25PP, sunspot number maximum between 95 and 130, i.e., similar to that of
SC24. Indeed, as can be seen in Fig. 4b, if our prediction for the 2020 terminator
time is correct, such a low value would be a severe outlier with respect to the
observed behavior of previous sunspot cycles. Such a low value could only be
reconciled with the previously observed sunspot cycles if the next terminator
event is delayed by more than two years from our predicted value, which would
extend the present low activity levels to an extraordinary length. We note also
that the relationship developed herein would have correctly predicted the low
amplitude of SC24 (from a terminators separation of 12.825 years) following
the 2011 terminator—three years after the 2006 NOAA/NASA Solar Cycle
Prediction Panel delivered their consensus prediction (Pesnell, 2008). Finally,
the arrival of the SC24 terminator will permit higher fidelity on the forecast
presented."
Stop installing "evil apps" and stop believing Apple actually cares about you. Cheering for a corporation to control what you can and can't install on your phone is gross.
