Download it at the zapstore!
Maybe try showing up more than once a month.
Screw the iOS people, nobody wants to play games with you anyway.
Introducing table mesh. Play board games with friends locally...without a board! Everyone controlls the game from their own phone. Optionally you can add an additional phone or tablet as a shared game board.
Download new games via Nostr/blossom
Uses bluetooth mesh inspired by bitchat.
Totally untested because i am a hermit with no friends and only 1 phone.

Dont think price is the best argument, given that they subsidize the hell out of it. You pay like 2400 a year and get a stupid amount of ai compute that would require a stupid expensive computer system, for cutting edge models that you don't even have access to.
So in terms of $/value, nothing beats these subscriptions at the moment.
There are a LOT of reasons to run models yourself, don't get me wrong. All i am doing is building open source public domain software anyway, so i am not bothered by most of those reasons
I am definitely going to be bulking up my plumbing skills over the coming years. I’ve got two bathrooms and a kitchen to remodel.
That’s on @npub1paf…c5a7, LOL.

Okay, because in my head it was more exotic, like “Nah-LASS-ch’lah-nam-ay.”
What Azzamo Blossom is, in one note:
Blossom is a simple way to host the images and files you attach to your Nostr posts. Your client uploads the file to a Blossom server or even multiple, and the note just links to it. Any client that speaks Blossom will do, which means you pick where your media lives and you can move it later.
Azzamo Blossom is our server at azzamo.media. What makes it different is delivery, not storage: files are served from close to wherever your followers are, so your images show up fast whether they're in Europe, the Americas or Asia.
How to use it
Open your Nostr client, find the media or Blossom server setting, and add http://blossom.azzamo.media . Any client with Blossom support works. From then on your uploads go there.
Paid with a Lightning invoice or a Cashu token. Nothing renews behind your back.
Already on Azzamo Premium? You get 10 GB of Blossom storage included while your premium time is active.
Your files aren't locked in. You can mirror media to and from other Blossom servers whenever you want.
Manage your blossom storage at https://azzamo.media
Hopefully the books in yours have actual titles. 😉
I can’t imagine, but maybe someone else would be interested in acquiring the hardware part of the company and releasing the products under different management
Wonder why they’re so afraid of turning on replies. I thought responding to customer feedback was important.

Aggressive saving is easier to sustain when it has a defined finish line. You don't have to reach your full FIRE number before allowing yourself to spend more.
Early in the process, contributions do most of the work because your investment base is small. As that base grows, the same contribution adds a smaller percentage to it. Eventually, brute-force saving does less to change your path than it did when you were starting from zero.
That doesn't produce a universal transition date. Four years can be a useful rule of thumb for a focused stacking sprint, but it's hard to know exactly when your existing base is strong enough for you to ease off.
Once that shift arrives, the choice doesn't have to be relentless saving or full financial independence. You can keep stacking at a slower pace while directing more income toward travel, hobbies, comfort, time with friends, or flexibility to explore work outside your job. The benefit of building the base early is getting to use more of your wealth before retirement instead of postponing every improvement until you reach the final number.
That‘s true, and you can see it in most of their advertising, which seems to mostly targeted to young black people in urban areas. This is part of a larger ad plastered across an entire building in central Harlem, and it features a headline about how convenient it is to pay for everything in small installments.
I looked on their website, and this is their pitch to businesses to add the feature:
• Acquire new-to-file millennial and Gen Z customers
• Attract customers who shop more often and spend more
• Improve conversion and increase average order value
So it really is just about getting a new generation of economically struggling consumers hooked on the idea of financing everyday purchases, and making debt slavery cool, normal, and fun.
I have to fix a cracked granite slab in my shower stall door frame this weekend with an $18 tube of epoxy. Oh, the frugal joys of home ownership.
Have you looked into naplets?
Yes, inside primal, if you go to someones profile, you can select that qr-code symbol thingy, and it will show you their npub (nostr public key).
As for the rest, here is something to chew on. The second half is more about possible solutions, perhaps not as interesting/relevant.

I’ll put frozen spinach in almost anything.
This sure makes me want to get my very own Meta spook specs!

Why is @nprofile…rlhf encouraging people to finance their groceries? When did they become so evil?

First impression of this new @npub17n4…fyh9 feature:

It just works!
Made this post with it:

Love it @npub1syj…f6wl 🤙
Interesting, how do you pronounce your last name? What part of the world does the Nolastname family hail from? 😏
These are the quirks you get from vibecoding. The robot will have to be explicitly told somehow not to do this, and i think most vib000000rs are not aware. I wasnt for example 🤷♂️
can you go into how deep Nostr reaches into the OS here? Is it just the use of the keypair for account and sudo stuff?
Who cares if you lose followers? This is the place to talk about these things. Just let loose.
Where else are you going to get a decent private bathroom (and sometimes a shower) in an airport?
In February 2026, a four-year degree at an in-state public university ran about $109,000 all-in. Out of state was about $183,000, and private school topped $235,000. My daughters were 8 and 10, roughly a decade from college. What outcome would justify that price when they turned 18?
The data I reviewed in 2026 made the standard case harder. College costs had risen 157% since 2000 while the wage premium had stagnated. One year after graduation, 52% of graduates were underemployed; a decade later, 45% still were. The program, price, financing, and required career path all matter.
AI raised the opportunity cost. Agentic assistants helped me build tools I couldn't have built alone. A young adult could use four years to build products, learn to sell, stack specific skills, and accumulate investments. Medicine, law, and certain engineering paths still require formal education.
A serious alternative needs structure: a curriculum, measurable work, accountability, and proof of value. FIRE families should compare the full degree cost with a credible plan for those same four years before taking on debt.

Just had my first (Dutch) mainstream media interview about @npub1nyv…9nc9. Let's see if #NostrIsMentioned will happen.

This feature isn’t about zombies, it’s just there to get your follow list back after you lose it. But if you just want to purge them all, that’s cool too.
I put a button on this page that lets you unfollow everyone!

I always tinker around with the spare tokens i have.
And currently i am working on something i am never, ever, going to be able to test:
Local digital tabletop games.
I.e. being able to play risk (or any game), where everyone controlls the game from their own phone, and you can optionally also add a tablet or whatever to put on the table to show the board.
All over bluetooth mesh (borrowed mostly from what bitchat is doing), no internet connection required.
This does not exist, which is stupid, because there have been instances where this would have been usefull.
Anyway, i am building it in such a way maybe, possible, Apple will allow it on iphones, because lord knows there is always some asshole in the group that has an iphone.
You can just use @nprofile…8zqj or #Mutable to recover your follow list with one click.
I thought to myself, “There’s no way this could be a real post.” and then I saw it for myself.

Yes 'sibericana' is a self declaration. Nothing stops anything or anyone from creating another billion 'sibericana''s. The publickey however is what is unique, so can tell them appart.
This begs the question as to how i know who or what the "real" sibericana is. Philosophical questions aside (they ultimately do matter but il skip 'm for now), the straight forward answer is a combination of 'somehow' (we might have met and shook hands or whatever) and you network of relationships and interactions; we call this 'web of trust'.
Non trivial problems all in all, but we will figure it out.
As for the apps: you can use a 1000 apps simultaniously if you wanted. No need to log out of primal. I dont know if primal's remote sign in works on iOS, but if it does you can use it to get into yakihonne.
Ideally you don't stick your private key into a bunch of apps directly. With a remote signer you dont have to, but now we run into the fact i dont know the iphone landscape so cant advise.

5000+ visitors on https://nyves.nl yesterday, thank you Google ;-) And Mediahuis. The company owning the brand Hyves has relaunched the old Dutch social network.
The @npub1nyv…9nc9 relay had it first big moment, handling a big amount of subscriptions coming from https://nyves.nl. @npub176p…vgup helped me to finetune some limits and other settings, to optimize the workload. The relay had some hickups, but the machine never crashed.
Now it's time to rethink the strategy of @npub1nyv…9nc9, as the social network Hyves is back online (as a platform, offcourse, owned by an advertising company).
If you have any ideas or think you can help me with strategies, please let me know.
