GM ☀️
Why do we say GM?
Nostr represents a radical leap toward a freer, more dynamic internet. With Nostr we get absolute free speech, open competition, and genuine user autonomy.
On Nostr, we control our identities through cryptographic keys, so we can join any community we want without losing our followers, content, or voice.
And because the network relies on many independent “relays” rather than a single central server, there’s no single gatekeeper to censor or deplatform you.
By integrating Bitcoin’s Lightning Network for micropayments, Nostr opens new possibilities for creators and entrepreneurs. Imagine zapping someone a few cents for a clever post or paying directly for valuable insights—no middleman, no hidden fees. It transforms social media into a global marketplace of ideas and services, free from the advertising-driven business models that dominate Big Tech.
Nostr offers a blueprint for disrupting entrenched monopolies in the same way open-source software upended proprietary giants. Instead of complaining about Silicon Valley’s control, we can build a world where users own their data, creators earn directly from their audience, and innovation happens in the open. It’s a rare glimpse of real progress—one that puts individual freedom and entrepreneurial spirit front and center.
We’re witnessing the reemergence of a truly open internet. If you believe that tech should empower people rather than exploit them, Nostr is where you want to be spending your time. Nostr is the most promising and disruptive idea since Bitcoin.
And on Nostr we say GM.

这2天，中国媒体报道中国女留学生被人谋杀死在美国加州的公寓里面。被一个亚裔男子杀死。这女孩子还与一个50多岁老白男谈恋爱。
这女孩子家庭花400万元在加州读艺术最后竟然死在美国加州，非常凄惨的结局。
我觉得，不能随意与任何人男人上床。这才是最重要的。女孩子自爱，在美国也是保护自己的最重要的方法。
这女孩子如果没有与一个老白男人谈恋爱，就不会有引来杀身之祸。
女孩子，自爱自重，才是最好保护的人身安全。

Is it possible to know what we shouldn’t do to avoid forced closure? Or at least some kind of notification that we are at risk of force closures? The more info we have the best we can do a better planing to avoid losing money..
Btw: thanks for adding extending-time option. That’s the things that improve LN UX

There's certainly a range of communist ideologies, some of which include communal society.
Not the point though.
This whole thread has been thrown for a loop.
The bigger point I'm trying to make, and I think nostr:nprofile1qyv8wumn8ghj7urjv4kkjatd9ec8y6tdv9kzumn9wsqzq3jjwq2zyp4yrc3g0lwfsxak5a5qm4guye47x4ju5fcynggg92ayaxptge made elsewhere in the thread is that people should choose what works for them and strive towards that.
My beef is with everyone coming in and trying to bludgeon people into submission because they have different thoughts on what might be a good or bad way do things.
I'm not even a communist, so I shouldn't even be out here defending it. Just realize that all ideologies have good and bad parts, and they work well in some situations and don't in others.

I built Upendo as an experiment
To see how people can mine bitcoin together and try to find a block
Trouble is getting momentum for enough hashrate to have a real chance
How to get the flywheel to spin?
How to get many people to bid?
Maybe new things require new incentives

题外话：乌克兰军队但凡在库尔斯克州多占一些土地，在未来谈判时筹码都相当的多。目前双方打成这样去谈判，即使按照现在媒体们所传的“冻结”方案，以谈拢了也是变相地纵然了侵略者。

A Supermassive Black Hole Is on a Collision Course With The Milky Way
https://www.sciencealert.com/a-supermassive-black-hole-is-on-a-collision-course-with-the-milky-way
A Milky Way collision with a supermassive black hole might be closer than we thought.
Hidden deep in the Large Magellanic Cloud dwarf galaxy that orbits the Milky Way on an ever-closing loop, signs of a massive invisible object clocking in at around 600,000 times the mass of the Sun have been detected.

So it's a communal society? Like the goal of communism? 😉
That's very cool, I did not know about this town in Mexico.
I agree with you: power attracts a-holes, and we could all use more accountability from our "leaders"

## A História Romântica (e um Tanto Obscura) por Trás do Dia de São Valentim
O Dia de São Valentim, celebrado anualmente em 14 de fevereiro, é sinônimo de romance, amor e demonstrações de afeto. Cartões, flores, chocolates e jantares românticos tornaram-se tradições populares. Mas qual a origem desse dia e por que ele é associado ao amor? A história é mais complexa e envolta em lendas do que muitos imaginam.
**As Raízes na Roma Antiga e a Festa Lupercalia:**
Embora o Dia de São Valentim seja agora uma celebração cristã, suas raízes podem ser encontradas em tradições pagãs da Roma Antiga. Uma das teorias mais populares aponta para a festa Lupercalia, celebrada em meados de fevereiro. Essa festa era dedicada à fertilidade e purificação, envolvendo rituais complexos e, em alguns casos, violentos, que visavam afastar os maus espíritos e promover a fertilidade.
* **O Ritual da Loteria do Amor:** Durante a Lupercalia, os nomes de jovens mulheres eram colocados em um pote e os homens solteiros sorteavam um nome, formando pares que durariam durante a festa ou, em alguns casos, por mais tempo.
**São Valentim: O Mártir e o Defensor do Amor:**
A conexão entre o Dia de São Valentim e o amor romântico está intrinsecamente ligada a um ou mais indivíduos chamados Valentim que viveram durante o século III d.C. sob o Império Romano. A história mais comum sobre São Valentim o descreve como um sacerdote (ou bispo) que desafiou o imperador Cláudio II.
* **Cláudio II e a Proibição do Casamento:** O imperador Cláudio II, acreditando que homens solteiros faziam melhores soldados, proibiu o casamento para jovens romanos. Valentim, em desacordo com essa proibição, continuou a realizar casamentos em segredo para jovens casais apaixonados.
* **A Prisão e a Cura Milagrosa:** Quando descoberto, Valentim foi preso e, eventualmente, martirizado em 14 de fevereiro, por volta do ano 270 d.C. Uma lenda adicional narra que, enquanto estava na prisão, Valentim teria se apaixonado pela filha do carcereiro e, antes de sua execução, enviou a ela uma carta assinada "Seu Valentim", uma frase que se tornou um clichê romântico.
* **Outras Teorias sobre São Valentim:** É importante notar que existem diferentes versões sobre a vida de São Valentim. Alguns historiadores acreditam que podem ter existido dois ou até três mártires diferentes chamados Valentim, cujas histórias se fundiram ao longo do tempo.
**A Cristianização e a Associação com o Amor:**
No final do século V, o Papa Gelásio I tentou cristianizar a festa pagã Lupercalia, substituindo-a pela celebração de São Valentim. No entanto, a associação definitiva do Dia de São Valentim com o amor romântico só começou a se solidificar durante a Idade Média.
* **Geoffrey Chaucer e a Literatura Romântica:** Em 1382, o poeta inglês Geoffrey Chaucer escreveu o poema "Parlamento dos Pássaros", onde associa o Dia de São Valentim ao acasalamento dos pássaros e, por extensão, ao amor romântico. Esse poema contribuiu significativamente para popularizar a ideia do Dia de São Valentim como um dia para celebrar o amor.
* **Cartas de Amor e Troca de Presentes:** A partir do século XV, a troca de cartas de amor e pequenos presentes tornou-se uma tradição comum no Dia de São Valentim.
**A Popularização Moderna:**
O Dia de São Valentim como o conhecemos hoje, com cartões elaborados, flores e chocolates, ganhou popularidade no século XIX, impulsionado pela produção em massa de cartões e pela crescente cultura do consumo.
**Conclusão:**
O Dia de São Valentim é um feriado complexo, com raízes que se estendem desde as festas pagãs da Roma Antiga até as lendas de um mártir cristão. Embora a história exata de São Valentim seja um tanto obscura, a associação do dia com o amor romântico se consolidou ao longo dos séculos através da literatura, da tradição e, mais recentemente, do marketing. Independentemente da sua origem, o Dia de São Valentim continua a ser uma ocasião para celebrar e expressar o amor em todas as suas formas.
