Last Notes npub1z3thwmwasmp787zvk2aaq5qdjtjdkl637p52nph4flv668973c8qaz2du7 protest.net I’m experiencing an issue where Claude Code CLI loses its MCP configuration after upgrades (which happen frequently). I have similar problems with Goose and Cursor (though I rarely use Cursor anymore). MCPs feel incredibly powerful yet frustratingly fragile across these tools. Has anyone found ways to make MCP setups more stable and easier to configure/maintain across different AI coding assistants? npub1z3thwmwasmp787zvk2aaq5qdjtjdkl637p52nph4flv668973c8qaz2du7 protest.net What do you think? Are the failures of the current model of capitalism opening up more people to the idea of socialism or even communism? Personally I think all of those labels, and fascism too, aren’t particularly useful in talking about the society we have or what we want, but it’s interesting to see how they’re shifting. #note19zr…mqhg npub1z3thwmwasmp787zvk2aaq5qdjtjdkl637p52nph4flv668973c8qaz2du7 protest.net So @npub14zw…mw42 doesn’t like her pronouns.

In swing states the US election system punishes honest voting and it’s wiser to be strategic. The US and every first past the post democracy needs to change to proportional representation if they are serious about being a representative democracy. npub1z3thwmwasmp787zvk2aaq5qdjtjdkl637p52nph4flv668973c8qaz2du7 protest.net Chappell is right that both sides of American electoral politics are fucked. And there are good tactical reasons to vote for Kamala Harris. But voting isn’t the only tool we have to change things. We can do a thousand things, we can organize and build power that forces change. The election is what happens at the end after we’ve done the work and changed politics. https://m.primal.net/LCOr.mov npub1z3thwmwasmp787zvk2aaq5qdjtjdkl637p52nph4flv668973c8qaz2du7 protest.net Workers Rise Together Portland Jobs with Justice presents an exhibition & auction celebrating working class militancy and solidarity through art Opening night: Saturday, September 21st 6PM-8PM One Grand Gallery| 1000 E Burnside With music curated by yoitsvo https://image.nostr.build/3b74625435e7f823c065e9f268e7b61befce3ba327abba07d1534c584c43e80a.jpg npub1z3thwmwasmp787zvk2aaq5qdjtjdkl637p52nph4flv668973c8qaz2du7 protest.net Wait, Margaret Killjoy has a substack?!? Her A Country of Ghosts was a really interesting story about what a post-revolutionary anarchist society looks like. Reminded me of The Dispossessed.

This is way to many steps. "Step-by-Step Guide: Installing Nostr Connect and Setting Up Your Account This guide will help you install the Nostr Connect browser extension, create a new key, add relays, and log in to social.protest.net and calendar.protest.net. Step 1: Install the Nostr Connect Browser Extension 1. Open your browser (Chrome, Firefox, or Brave). 2. Go to the Nostr Connect extension page: * Chrome Web Store * Firefox Add-ons 3. Search for “Nostr Connect” in the store’s search bar. 4. Click on the Nostr Connect extension from the search results. 5. Click “Add to Chrome/Firefox/Brave”. 6. Confirm by clicking “Add Extension” when prompted. 7. You will see a small Nostr Connect icon in your browser's toolbar once the installation is complete. Step 2: Create a New Key 1. Click on the Nostr Connect icon in your browser's toolbar. 2. You will see an option to “Create a New Key”—click on it. 3. Save your key securely: * You will see a public key and a private key. * Write down your private key and keep it in a safe place. This is like a password; if you lose it, you won't be able to access your account. * The public key is like your username, which you can share with others. 4. Click “Done” after saving your keys. Step 3: Add Relays to Your Account 1. Open the Nostr Connect extension again by clicking the icon in the toolbar. 2. Navigate to the Settings or Relays section. 3. You’ll see a list of default relays. To add new ones, click on “Add Relay”. 4. Enter the following relay addresses: * wss://relay.protest.net * wss://relay.nos.social 5. After entering each relay, click “Add” or “Save”. 6. Ensure the relays are enabled by checking the toggle or checkbox next to each relay. Step 4: Save Your Setup 1. Once you've added the relays, make sure you click “Save” or “Apply Changes”. 2. Your relays should now be connected, and your key should be set up for use. Step 5: Log In to Social.Protest.net and Calendar.Protest.net 1. Go to social.protest.net or calendar.protest.net in your browser. 2. Look for a “Log In with Nostr” or “Connect with Nostr” button on the website. 3. Click the login button—your Nostr Connect extension will prompt you to confirm the login. 4. Approve the login in the Nostr Connect pop-up by clicking “Confirm”. 5. You are now logged in and ready to use the platforms!” npub1z3thwmwasmp787zvk2aaq5qdjtjdkl637p52nph4flv668973c8qaz2du7 protest.net We’re glad to have caught up. Check out this prototype for our new site: https://protest-net-16a678.webflow.io/ npub1z3thwmwasmp787zvk2aaq5qdjtjdkl637p52nph4flv668973c8qaz2du7 protest.net Do you have an npub.pro page setup?

They call this company the "Potentially Responsible Party." Quoting Project 2025: To execute more efficient and effective cleanups, the following changes are needed in the Office of Superfund Remediation and Technology Innovation (OSRTI): Allow PRPs (“Potentially Responsible Parties”) to perform the statutorily required five-year reviews of Superfund cleanups to free OLEM (Office of Land and Emergency Management) resources. Project 2025, page 431 Superfund sites are places like factories, landfills, and mines where hazardous waste has been mishandled. The cleanup process involves figuring out how bad the contamination is, planning how to fix it, and then doing the actual cleanup to make the area safe for people and the environment again. You might think that the person who was responsible for contaminating the site might not be the best judge for whether or not it’s safe for people again. https://images.ctfassets.net/ud0fpafebkep/6XBIVBXx9id6aXikQddbBn/ff3f6be3dd9e453dbae49151c6b0d47d/p2025-bicycle.jpg npub1z3thwmwasmp787zvk2aaq5qdjtjdkl637p52nph4flv668973c8qaz2du7 protest.net It’s why we’re building on autonomous open protocols. npub1z3thwmwasmp787zvk2aaq5qdjtjdkl637p52nph4flv668973c8qaz2du7 protest.net Palestinian activists @npub1lq9…pa2e has had their Instagram account shadowbanned for publishing political content against the genocide in Gaza.
