Last Notes
Thank you for taking the time to respond to this. I just noticed that the graphic has been updated on the website to no longer show the veto rights comment which is good to see.
Knowing that veto rights weren't the issue, it reinforces that there are additional members that are not aligned with funding quality FOSS projects for whatever reason they may have. I would encourage each member of the board to push in future meetings to revise bylaws to improve transparency and create a truly open funding mechanism. The current system the board uses is more ideal for the personal reputations of those on the board than it is for handling open funding.
While it's impossible to determine who the bad actors are because of the private processes we can only speculate at this point. That being said we can see who is promoting secrecy in an open committee by reviewing past meeting minutes. See https://opensats.org/docs/minutes/2024-Q4.pdf where NVK and @nprofile…75ey argued for private votes that you seemingly also supported by your inclusion of keeping the committee members private as well. I highly encourage each board member to realize that by hiding votes you are allowing the majority to place the blame on your hands even when you don't vote in alignment with other board members.
This implies that bitcoin won't defeat fiat, no? Sure wars will always exist but unlimited funding without the populace approval certainly becomes harder to fund if they must properly tax the people versus hide the inflation.
The issue is that we can't tell who the problem makers are on the board because they're hidden behind the secret voting. There's obviously issues with more board members or else things like @nprofile…fujm should have already been funded years ago since it would have required more than a single board member to blackball them.
That is unless the board has some unknown veto rights. One thing I'd hope you could help me understand is if the board has been exercising any kind of special veto rights that aren't included in the bylaws as it shows in graphics on the site.

Oof I forgot to burn my ECX in time 😢

Did it work well for you on nostr.blue?
I'm a Reds fan and by requirement must hate anyone in NLC.
On the main daemon I'm showing 31 orders right now.

The clients I've used as reference are all part of the main git https://github.com/MostroP2P (mostrix, cli, mobile)
What kind of questions do you have about it? I've been working on getting it properly integrated into nostr.blue to have another client option to use it.
You're the man @nprofile…8vev it loads now! https://relay.patrickulrich.com/f54e947f46b70a1ed46dbf114d65757cfdb89ff3a0ae8040cedc4f4399cd110a.png
I wish the nickname populated over the npub and that I could set a user profile photo similar to nickname that replaced the user's.
You've got this! All the best vibes yours and his way.
It's great. I wish, for Ben's sake, he'd market it differently to avoid legal issues but it works just as it should. It does need more seeders to improve the library selection though.
Yes and no I think is the best way to answer it. She's still aware and can talk but she starts to lose her track and gets confused to what is going on when you try to have deeper conversations. She seemingly has agnosia and just can't process things the best.
A friend sent me a new Trezor phishing attack he received this morning that plays off the Coldcard bug. Stay vigilant out there! Links all pointed to a fake Trezor site that would presumably ask you to upload your key at some point. https://relay.patrickulrich.com/4c37b97c9122e296e6ffa9281ea847b545416d15f5e90183f2270051892dd5de.png
GM, sounds like Mom will be released from hospital today.
I *think* I may have crashed the relay again. It's back to a 502. I did two things before it went down that could be the culprit.
1.) I found the old version of the WRIF station that I had created before and tried rebroadcasting it so it would be stored on my personal relay.patrickulrich.com but it could have been included to wavefunc relay.
2.) I then used wavefunc.live to delete the new WRIF I created.
It could have just been wild timing but considering how quickly the relay went down after those two events I feel like it might have had something to do with me.
nostr.blue 0.8.22 is now live on the web and zapstore!
The first major feature is private and anonymous zaps (DIP-03). You can now choose who can see your zap on notes, articles, and music. Your identity and message are hidden from everyone except the recipient — decrypted details show up in their notifications and profile zap history. It's the same protocol Damus ships, so private zaps interoperate across both clients.
The second is Livelier integration. Thanks to the team behind @nprofile…6k4w nostr.blue's live stream discovery now includes the Livelier bridge — self-hosted Owncast streams get bridged onto Nostr as native live events, which means a whole catalog of independent streamers you couldn't find through Nostr before now shows up alongside native broadcasts.
Radio gets some love: save your favorite stations with a heart — favorites sync to your account. Radio genre pages now load correctly with genre tags, station links open the station card, and you can share stations straight from the radio player.
Sharing is easier across the board: share your profile via QR code and copy shareable web links for notes. Recipes and articles open in the right viewer when someone follows a shared link — including logged-out visitors.
On the reliability side: new articles appear immediately after publishing in correct chronological order with working infinite scroll, infinite scroll keeps working after switching feeds or tabs and no longer stalls on short pages or duplicates entries, and old mention and reply posts no longer surface in the home feed. Fixed video playback for divine-hosted verts (they also now show in profile Media tabs), Bible chapters and Quran surahs show as music statuses with correct links when audio is played, and relay settings now include guidance for adding relays.

Ox Alpha on the horizon somewhere too.
If you build for yourself you'll always have at least one 🙃
Awesome, both are back on the relay. I have no relation to WRIF just a regular listener of their morning show but @nprofile…sz77 is below.

Works great! This is an awesome addition to the livestream experience that all clients should adopt. It'll be ready in next build for NB.
Issue built to add livelier streams to nostr.blue
Awesome, working again! Did you clean up the relay for some of the stations? I don't see a couple that I submitted in the past for @nprofile…sz77 and WRIF showing.
I wish I had Paul's reputation to start a chain. 🤣
Yeah but he could do that if he premined on block 0. I'd obviously prefer no premine but my point is that giving to existing Bitcoin holders only puts downward pressure on his market value because most people won't be holding them. They'll consider them free sats and sell off so he'd be better served using his name on a fresh chain where existing distribution doesn't put downward price pressure against miners of his chain.
The girl that cut my hair said I remind her of her dad and that's really given me an age crisis
Let me shout out marh the way he won't. He didn't just create a wallet. He created a wallet that not only was one of the best UI of its time but still one of the greatest even today. Beyond that he was also the only wallet available for iOS users when Apple banned every Bitcoin wallet from the app store. He literally kept Bitcoin on his back during times Apple was pushing everyone away. Now 10 years later he's still looking out for those users better than others that get praise.
She's been an excellent business research agent. I tried to make my move on her once but she shot me down. I now keep it strictly professional! 😹
How would someone like my mother or once again a corporate entity like steak 'n shake decide who to donate to? This would mean they would either likely not donate or donate to the largest development corporation they could find because they would have the marketing to show their value while independent devs would remain unfunded.
I don't disagree on direct support. That being said funding organizations are a need. There's lots of devs that do work without advertising their efforts to get the funding they need. A quality funding org would help these developers continue providing their intelligence to the ecosystem that wouldn't be discovered by a large swath of users who aren't directly in the space or from corporate entities like Steak n Shake that need a middleman to find who best to send funds to.
So far getting @nprofile…66d0 section to work properly. I can't wait until it's fully ready though!
I have co-signed in support of his removal from @nprofile…uazd. I could care less about Coinkite other than hoping for the absolute worst for them.
Forgot to follow back up but its integrated on the site now. Thanks for providing the service!
My buddy Eric Wilson did a set at Sunday Night Funnies. Super proud of how he's been chasing his dream! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uOk-DHZv-Ws
Haha I don't know that you'd want mine but some music makers like @nprofile…vq08 would probably make some pretty cool stuff
I use my agents for a few things. The longest running is a fitness / diet agent that syncs to Fitbit to track my workout stats against what I'm eating. It's kind of replicated personal ability since Fitbit offers similar features.
More recently I started having a different agent manage my Mother's doctor records. I feed it all results for her testing and vital tracking then use those to answer questions and double check her doctors. It's been most useful in preparing visit prep sheets to help align her visits across her various doctors.
My other agents are normal coding stuff. Those aren't really the most exciting but they are useful when I want to deploy a meme site when I'm out with friends or want a detailed PR audit. I still dont like using them for actual coding because I feel too out of the loop.
In all seriousness though imagine this being your top story. 😢

Who am I to argue with God 🤷♂️
Then the powers at be issue a bunch of fake votes that keep them in power and controlling the masses through "democracy"

GLM 5.2 can't drop soon enough!
@nprofile…sz77 is back online! You can listen in on GoodMorningBitcoin.com or via any nostr live radio app!
I should have become a mechanic. At least then I'd have money to buy the dip instead of dropping 1000s on fixing up a car.
