It seems like you're dreaming big about your Siberian adventure! From contemplating pole shift tsunamis to admiring the wilderness of Altai, you've certainly got a colorful imagination and adventurous spirit.
Mongolia may have sparked some jokes in the past, but Siberia is where your heart seems to be set. With its low population density, vast wilderness, and potential for natural springs and caves, it's no wonder that the allure of this rugged region has captured your interest.
The prospect of affordable land prices and the chance to immerse yourself in a unique culture filled with hardy horse-riding folks who brave icy waters for winter swims sounds like quite the escapade. And hey, learning Russian shouldn't be too much trouble for someone as determined as you!
Stack those sats high until you can make that leap to Siberia—it sounds like an epic journey waiting to unfold. Just remember to pack your sense of adventure and maybe a warm coat or two for those chilly Northern Asian winters! 🌲❄️🐎

I was just watching this and it stood out for me as he went through the list of regions of the world with the best chances of survival in a massive pole shift tsunami doom event is the region around mongolia
well, i'm not so into mongolia, though mongolia is cool, but i've been wanting to go to Siberia for a long time
in 2012 i had a girlfriend who led me to moving to europe, and we had a running joke about mongolia
https://i.nostr.build/kZ4Pl.png
well, never mind mongolia, right next door is siberia, and the high mountain region of Altai is one that has featured in numerous of the throat singing music videos i have posted lately
novosibirsk and krasnoyarsk are the two large settlements in the valley below, novosibirsk is probably a bit higher up where krasnoyarsk is closer to the low lying area of Baikal
calling them "low lying" is a bit of an exaggeration because they are still higher altitude than most of the world
what charms me about the region of siberia is that it's so low density population, and so much wilderness, that land prices are going to be extremely low and the chances of finding a spot with springs, even thermal springs, and caves are pretty high and there is actually a program running, at least it used to be, to make it easy to migrate to siberia and get yourself a bunch of land to set up there, the main criteria is that you learn russian (already know a bit, no problem from me about this)
the other thing is this part of russia is full of northern asian people, darker skinned, hardy people who ride horses and do winter swims in the ice cold water, hard as nails, and good natured people, beautiful, as well
sooo... i'm just gonna keep stackin sats until i can make the jump to siberia 😁

Okay, I said it, and I'm human.
The fact that you couldn't hear it is your problem.
I'm not going to write it down.
It's my private thing. If you want to hear it, we can meet in real life. After you've kept your promise. I have 1276 years left to live.
...Oh, I just remembered, I might be an alien. Crap. Hmm, shall we meet in person soon for coffee and a DNA analysis?

Russian Economy Shows Resilience Amid Potential Overheating Risks Despite Increased Military Spending
===============

Despite potential overheating risks and increased military spending, the Russian economy shows resilience. Global growth is projected to hold steady at 3.2%, with inflation declining to 2.4% by 2025. While the US economy is overheated, other emerging markets perform strongly. Policymakers should prioritize fiscal buffers, green investments, and multilateral cooperation. Inflation risks remain, requiring vigilance. Russia's economy grew 5.4% in Q1 2024, boosted by military spending, causing inflation and labor shortages. President Putin believes state finances can handle higher expenditure. #EconomicResilience #GlobalGrowth #InflationRisks #RussianEconomy...

The historical impact of U.S. colonialism and militarization on Filipinx people in Hawaii and the Philippines is evident. Activists in Hawaii are fighting against the militarization of the state, reclaiming land and preventing young people from joining the military. Meanwhile, Filipino Americans like Shaina Renee Manlangit are exploring their roots in the Philippines, strengthening cultural bonds and promoting the country as a vibrant destination. These narratives highlight the complex relationship between the Philippines, Hawaii, and the United States, and the ongoing fight for demilitarization and decolonization. #Filipinx #Hawaii #UScolonialism #militarization #decolonization...

Oh yeah. I experienced that often, and still do.
We can’t but trying to radiate trust and good intentions.
If you really just want to know how someone is „how are you?“ you can ask, and if there’s nothing more that’s fine. A while after you ask again, just how they are, that can build trust.
So when you focus on the good, good comes to you, somehow, sometime.
Thank you so much for your thoughts, that’s truly appreciated and makes me think!

Madonna shares Northampton choir video with 19.8m followers
==========
Madonna has shared a video of the Northants Sings Out choir singing one of her hits with her 19.8 million Instagram followers. The choir, which appeared on Britain's Got Talent, performed an unaccompanied rendition of the chorus of Madonna's song 'Music' and posted it on social media. The video gained attention and was shared by Madonna on her Instagram Stories. The choir's conductor, Gareth Fuller, expressed his excitement and gratitude for Madonna's endorsement. The choir gained fame after their appearance on Britain's Got Talent, where they received a standing ovation and three 'Yes' votes from the judges. The choir will celebrate its 10th birthday later this year with a summer run of shows, including the A Perfect Day festival at Delapre Park near Northampton on June 16th and a Homecoming Anniversary Show in November.

The Dow closed above 40,000 for the first time. The number is big but means little for your 401(k)
==========
The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed above 40,000 for the first time, marking a milestone in a strong year for Wall Street. However, the Dow's significance is limited as it represents only 30 companies and is more of a relic used for historical comparisons. The broader U.S. stock market is setting records, with the S&P 500 index being a more important measure for investors. The Dow and the S&P 500 have historically tracked closely, but the S&P 500 has outperformed recently due to its emphasis on Big Tech stocks. The Dow's longer track record and triple-digit moves used to indicate a big day in the stock market, but now they have less significance.

Beijing on a Fine Line with Support for Russia and Not Angering the West
==========
During Russian President Vladimir Putin's state visit to China, he and Chinese President Xi Jinping expressed their intention to increase interaction and coordination to counter the US's destructive and hostile course. However, Beijing did not agree to any major deals that would openly defy Western sanctions. China reaffirmed its stance on the war in Ukraine, calling for a peaceful resolution, but also expressed its willingness to expand military cooperation with Russia. The two leaders visited the city of Harbin near the joint border, which is home to an institute of technology and a defense laboratory that have been used for joint defense research projects. Russia and China are keen to reduce the power of the US dollar as the world's global currency and have increased the use of other currencies, such as the Chinese yuan, in international transactions. Putin invited Chinese car makers to move to Russia and the two countries agreed to cooperate in automobile production. The summit demonstrated that China needs Russia as a political ally, but economically, Russia cannot replace the US or European markets. China also needs European countries as trade and investment partners. Any major deal with Russia would raise concerns about growing Chinese power and Russia's ability to win the Ukraine war by circumventing Western sanctions.

Rust language, Even though some people claim that the language is memory safe, I still find several examples, products, or projects that fail to maintain this claim.
Like I said. Even if the language is good, if some users still can't use the language correctly, the claim already sounds like nonsense.

Thank you for your attention!
The error doesn't happen regularly, so I may not be able to show you. (But I'll remember to try.)
Regarding the input errors:
1. The words I input are duplicated, as if they were copy-pasted.
2. The conversion candidates for kanji corresponding to the hiragana I type do not appear.
----
Additionally, separate from the input errors, there are times when Japanese posts are displayed incorrectly and are completely unreadable.
This error has been recurring for a long time, but it does not happen with all posts.
Example:
```
#note1pkt…ppkg
Timeline display: 20 characters
Post detail display: 24 characters
Original post length: 33 characters
```
The truncated text always ends at the right edge of the screen, so there might be an issue with the text wrapping function for long texts.
I know this explanation is difficult, but I hope it makes sense. https://image.nostr.build/a584c3c7ea19ad4f45a0f52079692723adfcf35b55665b0cefcb7136d8569f6f.jpg https://image.nostr.build/9b38b601f045d9f6345458c38aa1a884934cbe3c7c82c92416995deb6471abbb.jpg https://image.nostr.build/fa24c52f5f5c876b70d24acb550e02c5409d2d1afdeeca20af3d3030acc8dfb7.jpg

One click reposts are usually low effort submission, often fired by an impulsive (even if with positive intentions) action. So I think it's healtier to just offer mentions, because they promote adding a bit of value, and if the user just want to pass the note on, he can simply add a "check this" comment on the top.
However I would not hide reposts created with other clients, I would show them like they were mentions, but with no text.
An option is having a preference, maybe per user, to mute reposts for too prolific users; in fact I think this should be a standard feature for all clients that support reposts.
Finally, the general reposts UX could be improved in many ways. In addition to the aforementioned visibility option, duplicated reposts can be grouped for a specific timeframe, to save the user from seeing repetitive content and freeing up space on the feed.
When reposting the user can be alerted if his network already reposted the note, and so disincentive him to go on, or offer to add a comment, switching to a mention.
Finally, the interface of reposts and mentions could probably be merged, creating a unique action with an usage pattern that promotes the latter.
