Why is that some of the worst takes are by @anon posters. Its funny.

ngl @anon is a great release valve when one's patience/humility has run dry. best used when your nym is effectively your identity and truth needs to be told.

reply

aka cowards.
I understand those who always post under anon, but those that already have a nym online, using anon, especially on SN, is cowardice.

reply

I just noticed the flag that shows up when you downzap something.

I like it.

Tried to set up an account with Hetzner. They said I am "increased risk" and want me to take a photo of my passport. What?

reply
145 sats \ 2 replies \ @sox 9h

Hetzner doesn't mess around. They emailed me daily when I had an exposed opensearch port, because that version had a privilege escalation vulnerability, and kept emailing me until I fixed it.

Another cool thing is that I was able to get a Ryzen 3700x, 64GB RAM, 2x 1TB SSD in RAID5 for just 30 euros/month with their server auctions. It's nuts how inexpensive it can be.

reply

Nice. I'd spring for that too. Do you basically keep it as long as you pay the monthly fee?

Yup! The best thing is that you're not renting a VPS (a virtual server, inside of a bigger server, that shares the resources with its virtual server siblings), you're renting a bare metal dedicated machine.

Did you mention Bitcoin in your application?

Apparently they turn a blindish eye if they don't know and your usage doesn't pop up on their radar. But if they catch a whiff of anything crypto (and yes, they lump Bitcoin into that,) they'll ban/deny you.

Or maybe you sounded like a clawnker? A risky one to boot. Well done!

reply

No, I didn't mention anything at all during account setup, they never asked me

apparently this is pretty standard though, due to EU regulations

reply

Fair enough.
Not being a member of the Brussels apparatchik makes you a risk by default.

I have had my gun for a while, so I’m safe from the scrutinizing gaze of SolomonSatoshi, but when I zap I still get an invoice generated and I have to manually pay. Shouldn’t it just come straight from my attached wallet? What went wrong?

reply

I have been subjected to his ravings, despite being armed. Don’t assume you’ll be spared.

reply

What could be happening:

  1. this is a new device - each device needs to input the passphrase to sync the wallet
  2. your wallet did not load due to some transient problem - refreshing your browser might help
  3. your wallet is failing when we ask it to pay

Is there any way to change the notification logic for the little blue square on a post?

I see there's something new posted on a good thread and then find out it's all muted.

Here's how it would look from my perspective:

if UserName = "ChaoticalHeavy" then
(
select UnViewed from Comments where UserID NOT IN 
    (
    select UserID from MutedCowboys where Muter = "ChaoticalHeavy"
    ) 
)
endif

(I didn't bother to look up the correct data structure :)

I was just reading a thread someone posted on X, and I instinctively tried to downzap a reply.

How's X in terms of clankers now? Is it worse than SN?

reply
101 sats \ 3 replies \ @k00b 5 Mar

It's 90% of replies on most threads I enter on X. The CPO calls it an "existential crisis" and has a 90-day countdown for his team to come up with a solution.

In before mandatory video, DNA, and blood samples for validation on each login[1].

  1. Obviously not shared with 3rd parties for commercial purposes[2]

  2. Unless those third parties want to share it for commercial and/or identity tracking purposes, or any other purposes they can come up with.

@grok undress needs inspiration so add in some hotdog and taco pics.

Wait.. is X's CPO... 3CP0? 😂

SN doing way better then. Tho that clanker yesterday that posted 30 comments in 12 seconds was insane.

X: AI bot noise has definitely increased since Elon’s era ended the moderation-heavy period. Spammy bot accounts, automated retweets, and AI-generated low-effort posts are common. Depending on your feed, the “clank factor” can feel pretty high, especially in trending topics or niche threads where bot amplification is aggressive.

Stacker News: Far quieter in comparison. The community is smaller and more curated. AI-generated noise exists but tends to get moderated faster or is less impactful. Overall, it’s a “cleaner” environment—fewer clankers interrupting the conversation.

In our https://stacker.news/.well-known/nostr.json:

"DarthCoin": "f9acb0b034c4c1177e985f14639f317ef0fedee7657c060b146ee790024317ec"

Looks like the spec changed/disambiguated things a month ago.

I'll add it to my list this week.

reply

PR #2843 fixes it for me.

reply

OK thanks, I thought I did something wrong.

reply

Must be a 'bug' with your Nostr client, because it's working fine on Nostrudel.

reply

yeah must be the cache or nor syncing well the relays

reply

Your nym doesn’t gotta be the same on Nostr and SN?

reply

idk, in SN settings it doesn't say anything about this.

reply

Try changing the name to DarthCoin.

yeah I've changed that and is still showing as not verified.

@k00b is it case sensitive?

reply

It is, the SN server should return darthcoin instead of DarthCoin: https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/pull/2208/commits/749c45b7333a1180b62130824cb50ae82d00e4c3

interesting...
so how that some clients see it verified and others don't
#1448141

reply

because some clients aim to sell "premium" verified NIP-05

@justin_shocknet this "buy bitcoin" button is just a dummy button right now.

until you will find out a service for that, why don't you link the "buy bitcoin" button to this meme?

for fun :)
