Good morning friends 🌇
Our “only child” now has a younger brother. And a sister.
The sister is always warm, and the brother is loud 🤣

Are there any historical examples of a country with a large, centralized government and high taxes, that became wildly successful/rich/powerful? As opposed to a successful country that began raising taxes and blowing its bureaucracy?
(I think I know the answer, but I’m trying to steel-man the position).
Also, some great philosophy here, @npub1ndk...gk2v @npub1jt9...la9y @npub1fk8...cwld

This orchid only becomes more special as time goes on. Not only is it the first one we’ve brought to flower more than once (by now I’ve lost track, but at least four times), but when @npub17nd...950x asked if he could paint it, I was honored.
I didn’t expect that one day soon I would be looking at the painting in person, but here it is, simply beautiful, a forever representation of this living being.
“Thank you” doesn’t come close to expressing our gratitude, Carlo. It’s perfect.
Support your nostr artists and businesses. Pay with Bitcoin. It’s the new version of “shop local”. Collect things that are meaningful to you. Be generous with your love. This is how we win.

Having never installed a password manager on GrapheneOS, where does a password get saved if you say “yes” when asked if you want to save it?
I see where you can add password managers, but not where to find saved passwords 🤔

GM friends, happy Saturday! What’s your weekend looking like?
“On this episode of why are we bullish”, I’m bullish AF on the impressive range of amazing privacy tools being built. Left or right, rich or poor, white or black, we all deserve digital privacy. From govt’s, companies, and hell, even nosy neighbors! (Yes, some lady was giving me shit about my license plate yesterday, after yelling at some construction guys about making too much noise. No, she had nothing better to do).
Anyway, I’ve been hearing interesting things about #obscura VPN from Brian Dong (is he on nostr?) so I thought I’d give it a shot. I was very impressed.
Here’s what I texted wifey the other day, when she was having trouble getting her VPN (Nord) to work while traveling:
—— If you can’t get connected, I’ve been testing a new VPN called Obscura; it was built by Carl Dong (he was an early Bitcoin Core developer) and its modeled after Apple’s private relay model (uses two “hops” instead of one) but rather than owning both servers, the second one is owned by Mullvad (arguably the best VPN provider), so that neither party can see or de-anonymize the data. And it’s FOSS (obviously I’m not reading the code, but if there’s an obvious issue it’ll be caught sooner or later).
The best part(s) —
1) it’s insanely fast, as in, I’ve taken multiple video calls with zero lag and perfect video quality(!!!),
2) it formats your web traffic in some way so it doesn’t look like you’re using a VPN, meaning sites that often block Nord or Mullvad (like Reddit, BofA, etc.) don’t even realize, and
3) it’s significantly cheaper than Nord, and accepts payment over Lightning/no KYC nonsense.
The only downside is that they haven’t released an iOS version yet, so it’s computer only. But since it’s only your laptop that’s giving you trouble (right?), that shouldn’t matter. ——
Needless to say, we’re both converts. Wen iOS? 😁
