Olá meus caros leitores, estou fazendo um guia voltados aos Brasileiros aqui do Nostr. Vejo que há muito conteúdo em inglês que infelizmente não é traduzido para o português. Por este motivo tomei a iniciativa de começa com este artigo.
Espero que gostem deste artigo, que tenham uma ótima leitura.
# Bem-vindos ao Mundo Nostr !!
Acredito que todos que estão aqui sabem um pouco sobre o Nostr e que é uma rede social descentralizada, local onde você pode postar sem medo de represarias governamentais [ditatoriais].
Mas, vocês conheçem como o Nostr funciona e todas as ferramentas que vocês têm disponível neste ecossistema?
Poisé, acho que não.
O Nostr é um protocolo de comunição descentralizada muito versátil, isso quer dizer que não está limitado a um tipo de "rede social", nele é possível fazer Blogs, streaming, podcast e até mesmo e-mails com autonomia total do usuário.
Meus caros, isso é liberdade total, sem ficar na mão de bigtech como Microsoft, Apple, Google.
Para ficar mais claro darei um exemplo para vocês:
Imagine você criando uma conta no Youtube, você deve aceitar as Diretrizes impostas pela google no uso do **SEU CANAL**, por mais que você tenha autonomia na produção do **SEU CONTEÚDO**, determinadas palavras e termos não podem ser usadas, ou seja, **O GOOGLE DETERMINA O QUE VOCÊ PODE OU NÃO FAZER NO SEU CANAL**.
Veja que é uma liberdade parcial no processo de criação de conteúdo.
Já no Nostr, o seu canal é completamente seu. Não há nenhuma entidade, empresa responsável pelo seu conteúdo a não ser você.
## O Mundo Nostr e sua funcionalidades
No nostr você terá acesso a uma diversidade de aplicativos para cada objetivo de uso.
Mas, antes de abordar sobre os diversos layouts e funcionalidades do Nostr é necessário aprender o básico deste universo.
> ***Em primeiro lugar:*** É necessário que vocês saibam que a partir do momento que vocês criaram um conta aqui, independente do "cliente" ou "distro como o pessoal que gosta de fazer analogia com o Linux", vocês recebem duas importantes chaves ! A **chave privada** e a **chave pública**.
A **Chave privada**, também chamada de chave secreta é o acesso ilimitado a sua conta, ou seja, é a partir dela que poderá produzir conteúdos em geral neste mundo. Ela te dará acesso a todos os rercusos do Nostr, portanto é importante que esteja muito segura.
A **Chave pública**, você ver como os outros usuários ver o seu perfil e o seu conteúdo. Ela é uma importante chave para que as pessoas possam ter acesso aos conteúdo que vocês públicam, ou seja, é atráves dela que você poderá compartilhar o seu perfil para que seu público tenha acesso ao seu mundo.
Dito isso vamos conhecer os apps e os chamados clientes Nostr.
### O que são clientes Nostr?
Clientes são as várias maneiras de interagir com o protocolo Nostr [fonte: Nostr.com]
É semelhante ao Sistema Operacional Linux que tem várias distro com diferentes layout para o mesmo Sistema.
Vejamos as principais para que vocês tenham uma noção da amplitude do protocolo.
- **Damus:** é um app para celulares IOS terem acesso ao NOSTR, tem formato de rede social, como Primal e o Amethyst.
- **Primal** é um app versátil serve tanto para celulares IOS, Android e PCs, também tem formato de rede social, porém você pode abrir uma carteira lightning bitcoin exclusiva deste app, facilitando muito os micropagamentos em satoshis pela rede.
- **Amethyst**, assim como o Damus é para o IOS o Amethsy é para o Android, sou suspeita para falar sobre este clientes, pois é o meu favorito. Além de várias possibilidades de edição de texto, ele tem diversas funcionalidade incluídas, como *****Guia Mercado***** onde você pode comercializar produtos pela rede, tem como intergrar com outros apps de streaming, formar grupos temáticos etc.
- **OXchat** não é exatamente uma rede social tem um layout que lembra um pouco o Whatsapp ou Telegram, serve como uma rede de interação instantânea, tem diversos recursos que achei mais interessante é a lousa, onde é possível interagir no grupo com desenhos etc.
- **Yakihonne** que é justamente o cliente que estou usando para construir este artigo. Como usuário posso dizer que ele tem um foco para criação de Blogs no protocolo Nostr, lembrando que cada cliente tem um layout diferente, ou seja, uso de templates para definir a estrutura do seu blog é meio limitado [ressalva assim como vocês sou iniciante do Nostr, pode ser que tenha como determinar um layout próprio, mas eu mesma não sei como]
Há muitos outros clientes disponíveis para acessar e experimentar e conhecer todos eu recomendo o site: [Nostrapps]( https://nostrapps.com/##all)
Agora que você leu este pequeno guia, se divirta aqui no nostr e não se esqueça de apoia a gente.
Até Mais !!

## Chef's notes
I prefer to use skinless, boneless chicken thighs. Any part, bone in or out, will work fine. I do recommend removing skin, so that the sauce can saturate the meat.
I like to simmer fresh green beans in the sauce as the chicken cooks through. Any fresh vegetable would work fine. Simply add them early in the cooking time and stir occasionally.
## Details
- ⏲️ Prep time: 10-15 min
- 🍳 Cook time: 30 min - 1 hour
- 🍽️ Servings: 1 - 8, or more
## Ingredients
- Skinless, boneless chicken thighs, or other cut
- Garlic Powder
- Garlic Cloves, 1 per piece of chicken, minced & salted
- Butter, 1 Tbsp per piece
- Chicken Broth or White Wine, approx 1/4 c. per piece
- oil for searing
## Directions
1. Heat oil over med-high heat in appropriate sized pan
2. Season chicken with garlic powder on both sides
3. Brown chicken, smooth side first. Flip and repeat
4. While chicken is browning, mince and salt garlic
5. Add butter to the pan, scrape loose any caramelized bits from the pan, as the butter melts
6. Add minced garlic, and saute until soft and fragrant
7. Add chicken broth or wine and stir, add vegetables if desired
8. Increase heat to bring to a boil, then reduce heat to simmer
9. During simmer, scoop sauce over chicken occasionally, more frequently as sauce reduces
10. If cooking vegetables, flip or stir when coating the chicken to ensure they spend time fully submerged
11. Cook until chicken is done, vegetables are soft, and sauce is reduced to a thick paste
12. Serve :)

"Admit it. Sometimes you just need a big strong man." -Xander Harris
Buffy fans should appreciate that reference. It's one of my favorite lines to quote around the house, whenever my wife needs help opening jars.
Today, I said it to my daughter when she tried to open the orange juice herself, which earned a side-eye from the wife. It also led me to think about a possible research hypothesis.
## Idea
I've heard that grip strength has been declining in men, to the point where there's barely a difference anymore between men and women.
Is it possible that something as seemingly trivial as not being any more able to open jars, is reducing the rate of relationship formation?
This was one area where men have historically been able to clearly demonstrate some value.
## Empirical difficulties
I have no idea what the data looks like on either side of this question (grip strength or relationship formation), so I can't say much about specific data problems.
However, there is definitely going to be an issue with "the dreaded third thing". In particular, I'm concerned with how to isolate the impact of grip strength decline from other effects of testosterone decline. Ideally, we'd be able to do a longitudinal study of men, where their grip strengths and testosterone levels are recorded, as well as their relationship status over time.
Since there's no chance of doing that study, the best hope would be to put together some population level numbers over time and see if relationship formation rates still have a correlation with grip strength, after controlling for average testosterone levels.
-----
I hope you enjoyed this half-baked idea. I mentioned to @denlillaapan that it might be fun to share ideas like this on SN. In all likelihood, no one will ever take these ideas any further, but they still might prompt fun discussions.

Much to @realBitcoinDog's chagrin, we did eat out for Valentine's Day. Well, actually, we got some take out, but it definitely wasn't very healthy.
However, we did eat fairly early, so it didn't mess up my fasting.
## Reflections
Even though I had been regularly fasting before February, this Fast February exercise has improved the habit and led to some noticeable outcomes.
The first couple of days, I was kind of snacky. Because of the fiscal fast element of Fast February, I had to snack on whatever was around the house already. That turned out to be the "wrong" type of applesauce that our daughter refuses to eat. After those first few days, though, I really haven't been very snacky.
In fact, my general appetite is noticeably lower.
The most pronounced non-appetite related effect has been more vivid dreams (or at least more memorable dreams).
On the con side, I have felt a little stiffer and have been stretching more often to alleviate muscle tension.
## Score Card
Day 1: 14 hour fast (13 dry)
Day 2: 15 hour fast (14 dry)
Day 3: 17 hours (16 dry)
Day 4: 18 hours (17 dry)
Day 5: 18 hours (16 dry)
Day 6: 19 hours (16 dry)
Day 7: 16 hours (15 dry)
Day 8: 18 hours (17 dry)
Day 9: 17 hours (17 dry)
Day 10: 15 hours (13 dry)
Day 11: 20 hours (19 dry)
Day 12: 20 hours (17 dry)
Day 13: 16 hours (13 dry)
Day 14: 17 hours (15 dry)
Day 15: TBD (16 dry)

You’re sitting in the 5am darkness of your living room.
The baby in your arms shifts and you’re afraid she might wake. It's hot, but you wouldn’t dare remove the blankets covering her body.
It seems impossible you could admire anyone more, then you hear the gentle snore of your exhausted wife creep from the gently cracked bedroom door.
You can only imagine what pain she went through to bring this precious girl to the world so you could be holding her now.
Your watch lights up. You dread the sight of that little alarm bell above the time 5:25 and a weight falls on you like a million tiny pieces of lead.
If only you had more time.
You wish you could take your baby girl with you. That way you would have all the time in the day with her and your wife could be left to rest.
You need to work.
You get up as gently as you can. Even so, baby girl shifts in your arms. Her eyes open slightly. The thought of returning a crying baby to your exhausted wife is distressing, it's just not fair.
Baby girl shifts again, her eyes open long enough to spot you in the faint glow of morning twilight and she smiles.
You hold your breath.
The smile remains on baby girl’s face but her eyes close and her head collapses into your chest. You return your baby to her mother’s side and admire them in their slumber.
You need to work. Nothing could ever go wrong with that house so long as you work to keep its walls strong. Some time, when you’re truly needed perhaps you’ll have the money saved up to take the desired time off.
In the absence of the love you share for your family. In the absence of the love others have for you, money loses some value.
If we equate money for what it is, the residue of time, we cannot divorce Love from Money.
It’s important to understand that Money won’t buy you Love and Love should never be exchanged for Money but Time cultivates Love.
These are some key things to keep in mind:
*Life without love is Suffocation*
*Life without money is stress and despair*
*Families are cultivated and grown with love and protected with money.*
*Money is the residue of time.*
Be it Bitcoin or a golden bullion, it exchanges days, hours, minutes, or seconds. What could you do instead if you had money?

- The UK’s Serious Fraud Office issued its first Unexplained Wealth Order (UWO) in January 2025.
- UWOs force individuals to justify wealth or risk asset seizure, with expanded powers since 2023.
- Critics warn of its potential for abuse.
This January, the UK's Serious Fraud Office (SFO) [obtained](https://www.gov.uk/government/news/sfo-secures-first-unexplained-wealth-order-in-100m-fraud-case) its first Unexplained Wealth Order (UWO) to recover a Lake District property valued at approximately £1.5 million. The property is owned by Claire Schools, ex-wife of solicitor Timothy Schools, who was sentenced to 14 years in prison in 2022 for fraud. The UWO requires Ms. Schools to explain within 28 days how the property was acquired; failure to do so may lead to its seizure. This marks the Serious Fraud Office's first use of a UWO.
[UWOs](https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2002/29/contents) are legal tools first introduced under the Proceeds of Crime Act in 2002, specifically in sections 362A to 362T, as amended by the Criminal Finances Act of 2017. UWOs empower the High Court (or the Court of Session in Scotland) to require individuals to explain the origin of assets over 50,000 GBP that appear disproportionate to their known income. If the individual cannot provide a satisfactory explanation, the assets may be subject to seizure by the government.
UWOs are civil orders and do not require a criminal conviction. Failure to comply with a UWO can make the property presumed recoverable in civil recovery proceedings. Additionally, the court may issue an interim freezing order to prevent the property from being dissipated while under investigation.
In 2023 this law was [updated](https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/economic-crime-transparency-and-enforcement-bill-2022-overarching-documents/factsheet-unexplained-wealth-order-reforms-web-accessible) to expand the scope of UWOs to apply to more individuals, lowering the burden of proof required to apply for UWOs, and allowing faster property seizure if an individual fails to respond or provide a satisfactory explanation. The process echoes witch trials that once accused, you must prove your innocence or forfeit.
The use of a UWO in this case highlights a growing effort by the UK to tackle illicit wealth, but it also raises concerns about the potential for abuse of power.
As explained by Kingsly Napley in [Lexology](https://www.lexology.com/library/detail.aspx?g=287a5b60-5612-4093-ba8f-272252c44cb5) *“The wide range of parties that can be targeted by UWOs, the reverse burden of proof that applies and the pressure on UK authorities to be seen to do more to stamp out suspected dirty money, means that many people may find themselves fighting to retain their assets.”*
With the use of more UWOs to come in the future, the real impact will continue to unfold in the coming years.

“Phoneography” is photography using a smartphone instead of a traditional camera.
Here are some solid phoneography tips to enhance your shots:
1. **Master the Basics**
* Clean the lens – Phones are handled all day, and a smudged lens can ruin a shot.
* Tap to focus – Always tap on your subject to ensure it's sharp.
* Use gridlines – Turn on the rule of thirds grid for better composition.
2. **Lighting is Everything**
* Natural light > Flash – Soft morning or golden hour light creates the best results.
* Use reflections & shadows – They add depth and creativity to your shots.
* Adjust exposure manually – Tap and slide up/down to brighten or darken.
3. **Composition Tricks**
* Leading lines – Roads, walls, and fences guide the viewer's eye.
* Framing – Use windows, doors, or natural elements to frame your subject.
* Symmetry & patterns – Create balance and visual interest.
4. **Get Creative with Angles**
* Low angles – Make subjects look larger and dramatic.
* Overhead (flat lay) – Great for food, art, or storytelling shots.
* Close-ups & textures – Capture details for a unique perspective.
5. **Edit Like a Pro**
* Use editing apps – Lightroom Mobile, Snapseed, VSCO for better control.
* Don’t overdo filters – Subtle adjustments in contrast, color, and sharpness are best.
* Shoot in RAW (if your phone allows) – More flexibility in post-processing.
6. **Capture Motion & Time**
* Use burst mode – Great for action shots and selecting the best frame.
* Long exposure apps – Create light trails or smooth water effects.
* Slow-motion & time-lapse – Add dynamic storytelling elements.
7. **Know Your Phone’s Camera Features**
* Ultra-wide & telephoto lenses – Experiment with different focal lengths.
* Night mode – Helps capture better low-light shots without excessive noise.
* Portrait mode – Blurs the background for a professional look.

Vielleicht hätte Matthias Gehler noch ein drittes Mal ansetzen sollen. Versuch Nummer eins, schreibt er ganz zum Schluss, sei in der Tonne gelandet, nachdem ein Freund gesagt habe, dass niemand ein weiteres Sachbuch über die deutsche Wiedervereinigung brauche – vor allem nicht von einem Autor, der live dabei war. Deshalb sei dann „viel Subjektives“ in den Text eingeflossen. Nun: So viel ist das gar nicht. Freundschaften, steht ebenfalls im „Nachtrag“, seien ihm wichtiger. Und wenn es wirklich Interesse an „allen möglichen erlebten Geschichten aus jener Zeit“ geben sollte, dann schreibe er halt ein zweites Buch (S. 252).
Ich melde hiermit Bedarf an. Matthias Gehler, Jahrgang 1954, war Redakteur beim CDU-Blatt *Neue Zeit*, als die Dinge ins Rutschen kamen. Er wurde Referent von Martin Kirchner, dem neuen Generalsekretär der Partei, und nach der Wahl vom 18. März 1990 Sprecher der Regierung von Lothar de Maizière. Gehler hat mit Kohl gesprochen, mit Gorbatschow, mit dem ersten Bush. Er war Vorgesetzter von Angela Merkel, später dann Chefredakteur beim MDR und immer wieder im Dunstkreis der Macht, mindestens bei irgendwelchen Jubiläen. Es gibt Fotos davon im Buch.
Es gibt auch Geschichten, so ist es nicht. Dass der kleine Dünne und der große Dicke nicht miteinander konnten, wusste man schon, auch von Lothar de Maizière persönlich. Da man seine eigenen Qualitäten schlecht selbst würdigen kann, ist es gut, dass Matthias Gehler noch einmal klarmacht, was die DDR an ihrem letzten Regierungschef hatte. Eine Arbeitsbiene, mit allen juristischen Wassern gewaschen, in jeder Hinsicht gebildet und schon deshalb einem Machtmenschen wie Helmut Kohl überlegen und suspekt zugleich. Gehler erzählt ein paar köstliche Anekdoten über die beiden, die ich hier nicht verraten will, und hat auch einen Seitenhieb für Regine Hildebrandt, die bis heute ein Nimbus umgibt, der offenbar nicht ganz zur historischen Wirklichkeit passt. Die SPD-Frau mit dem losen Mundwerk, so erzählt es jedenfalls Gehler, sei oft blank gewesen, wenn es um das Klein-Klein der Regierungsarbeit ging. Eine Vorlage aus ihrem Ministerium? „Die gibt es nicht.“ (S. 154)
Überhaupt: Es sind die Miniaturen, die dieses Buch wertvoll machen. Die Arroganz von Gorbatschow, sicher, und die Mentalität der Berater aus dem Westen, die sich im Einzelfall auch als „Blockwart“ aufgeführt haben (S. 94), mehr aber noch das Porträt von Franz Jahsnowski, DDR-Diplomat, schon Protokollchef von Ulbricht und nun wegen seiner Erfahrung und seiner Kontakte auch für die Neuen nicht zu ersetzen. Gehler nutzt einen Abend in Brüssel, um aus diesem Leben zu berichten und damit in gewisser Weise auch über die DDR und den Umgang mit ihrem Erbe.
> Als Regierung haben wir Honeckers Protokollchef und seinen Stab übernommen – offiziell aus Wertschätzung, inoffiziell, weil der Laden einfach weiterlaufen musste. Die Geschichte kennt keine Stunde Null. Das geht nur mit fähigem Personal. Mancher Altbundesbeamte hätte es lieber anders gehabt. Wir mussten den Beratern von drüben immer wieder erklären, warum wir Menschen des alten Apparates übernommen haben. Jahsnowski steht für viele Meister ihres Fachs, die plötzlich systementwurzelt zwischen den Welten schwebten und ihren Glauben an den Sozialismus überprüften. (S. 124)
Ich schreibe diese Passage ab, weil ich vermute: Hier ist mein Bedarf nach mehr entstanden. Mag Matthias Gehler seine Merkel-Geschichten für sich behalten. Geschenkt. Ich gönne ihm auch die Euphorie der ersten Amerika-Reise und all das, was jetzt über die Politprominenz jener Tage allenfalls zwischen den Zeilen steht, vielleicht auch aus Angst vor der eigenen Courage. Aber die Ambivalenz, die im Jahsnowski-Porträt aufscheint und dann wieder in der Asbest-Affäre um den Palast der Republik: Da geht noch was. Anders formuliert: Wenn immer wieder die große Freiheit beschworen wird, bei den Märzwahlen 1990 genauso wie bei der letzten Volkskammer, dann ist das für meinen Geschmack zu viel Regierungssprecher und zu wenig Zeitzeuge. Matthias Gehler weiß, wie es gelaufen ist (eine „Materialschlacht“, bei der die CDU sogar mit „Nahe-Weinflaschen“ punktete), und könnte sich Schützenhilfe holen, bei [Daniela Dahn](https://medienblog.hypotheses.org/9726) zum Beispiel. Also ein zweites Buch, bitte.
