Bravo
Congratulations and happy anniversary! 🤝🙌🏻
That’s awesome. Making it work in this crazy world is a real accomplishment. 👊🏽❤️
Congrats!
Me too this year, well done 👏
Do you have any concrete examples of what type of tech you have in mind that shares human values?
This is crushing all of the parsers, except those that are purely Asciidoc. 😂 Need to work on them, some more.
Just look at the raw Asciidoc source.
This is the #bookstr macro I want to use for publishing all of the Great Works, so anyone interested should scream at me, now. (Or don't, and scream at me, later, as I am always around. 😂)
I've been working on it, for months, by attempting to publish different `30040` structures and see how I would best-address the individual parts. Also, I've been reading a lot of citation pattern documentation. That's how I came to the conclusion to make one generic book macro, rather than something #Bible specific.
#christian #catholic #biblestr
The #bookstr 📖 macro is hierarchical. If you find a section or verse event, in the wild, you can just drop the section tags, to find the whole chapter, or the section and chapter tags, to find the whole book. This means you can always backtrack to the entire publication, from just one quoted line or paragraph.
We are going to be having these tags in all of our publications, so you will be able to "Bible-search" and "Bible-cite" any of our books!
I love books. Name checks out. 😎
Some things:
1. *You have to scroll-right on mobile.* Unlike Jumble and Alexandria, Wikistr is an unapologetic desktop-focused app, and that's why it's cool. If you have a wide screen, you can open up lots of panels, and make some wider, and it turns into the document version of a Bloomberg terminal. Credit for this design goes to @npub180cv...h6w6.
2. The different Wikistr themes have different looks, help text, and *different relays*, for the document search and the social interactions. #Quranstr uses Nostrabia, for instance, whilst #Biblestr focuses on Christpill. The basic #Wikistr has been left secular. I am looking for a Jewish relay, but haven't yet found one, so #Torahstr uses generic ones.
3. All have light and *dark themes*. The light themes are so much prettier, but I know you will all use the dark ones.
4. All themes take *your personal relay list* into account, and share a few document relays, so you can just pick the theme you like and use that.
5. *We printed the Bible first because Gutenberg did* and he's the inspiration for our Nostr printing press. We will proceed to print all other open-license books we can find, including the Torah, Quran, classical authors, English literature, etc. They will all be searchable, with this mechanism.
6. This wikistr *can find and render kinds 300023, 30041, 30817, 30818, 30040*, and the comments are kind 1111 and you can vote at the top of the panels, using the up/down arrow buttons. Only kinds 30817/818 are in the left-most panel feed, to keep it uncluttered and true to the origins.

These never really took off because we have kind 30023.
Nobody cares, if a microblog has a typo.
It's worth noting that Psalm 42 is prayed by the priest and altar servers at the beginning of every Catholic Mass celebrated according to the old form (1962 and previous).
In Germany, they use Psalm 124.
P: Unsere Hilfe ist im Namen des Herrn.
M: Der Himmel und Erde erschaffen hat.
[[book::bible | Psalms 124:8 | DRB]]
Oh, wow. I was this many days old, when I found out that the DRB doesn't have that verse.
[[book:: bible | Psalm 124:8 | KJV]]
Is it maybe in Psalm 123 or 125. The Douay has an off-by-one thing going on with some of the Psalm numbers. That translation combines two of the early psalms that are separated in other translations.
Is this on a public repo yet? I'd love to take a peek at the code.
A very good video to understand the position of #ukraine wnd see that time is on the defenders side.

On 16 December the European Commission unveiled a new "Automotive Package" intended to support the transition to clean mobility while preserving the competitiveness of the European automotive industry. The announcement positions the package as a policy response aimed at balancing decarbonisation goals with industrial concerns.
The Commission presented the initiative as a coordinated effort to guide the sector’s shift toward low‑emission transport without unduly harming manufacturers’ ability to compete. Details on specific measures, timelines or impact assessments were not provided in the summary notice.
Observers note the key question is whether the package will deliver a more flexible pathway to clean mobility in practice; that assessment will depend on the concrete proposals, implementation rules and support for industry and infrastructure that the Commission publishes next. #EU #Automotive #CleanMobility #FiatNews

The people on here are so anti-legacy media, that they all switched over to media that errs in the opposite direction, and therefore remain poorly informed.
If you see or hear some news, put in some more effort to make sure it is confirmable, before allowing it to affect your worldview. If the news makes you happy and reassures you that _nothing has changed_ then work extra-hard to confirm it, as that is a sign that it is mere propaganda.
You see me posting news that reflects poorly on Germany and the EU, and the same for both the Republicans and the Democrats, and the same for Ukraine and Russia, as well as news that reflects well on them, because I am willing to entertain the idea that:
* Nobody is always right.
* Nobody is always wrong.
* Nobody is perfectly good.
* Nobody is perfectly evil.
* Things are constantly influx.
* The world is full of surprises, and the occasional miracle.
Life is complicated. News, also.
Baidu announced on 22 December 2025 that it plans to introduce robotaxis in London from next year through partnerships with ride-hailing services Uber and Lyft. The company said the autonomous vehicles will be integrated with the online taxi platforms to provide robotaxi services in the city. #Baidu #robotaxi #London #Uber #Lyft
The brief announcement did not specify exact launch dates, fleet size, pricing or regulatory approvals. It identified Uber and Lyft as the partner platforms for booking and ride dispatch in London but offered no operational timeline beyond “from next year.”
The move represents a planned international deployment of Baidu’s robotaxi service; further technical, commercial and regulatory details are expected to follow as the companies prepare for rollout. #FiatNews
Every day you start from zero on a new level. Sometimes you are stuck on the previous level or your progress is reset. Welcome to the game of life. 🚀🚀🚀
If you think that you are immune to propaganda, you are already heavily influenced by it. Let this sink in

So many videos etc about health say "before you try this, discuss it with your healthcare provider" and yet most medical consultations now seem to be aimed at getting people out if the don't within 10 minutes. Where's the discussion potential? So hyper fiat
Out of the door.
Type, read, post. Why I do I find that so hard?!

Random chats to many people on my wanders around south Africa, I think we should redefine politics as "the co-ordinated act of extraction from the productive sectors of society"
老中小孩有一个比较悲惨的点就是,他从小到大可能对自己的兴趣爱好,还有职业生涯方向做出去无数次的探索。最开始的时候,他的探索被父母打压。后来被他心中父母的意向所打压,也就是说无需他父母亲自指责,只需他对自己进行自我审查,就足以自己结束自己的自我探索。以至于到最后,他会觉得除了无意识中父母、学校为他设定的目标之外什么都不重要。这一情况甚至会蔓延到大学之后,可以说,他一半的生活都在内耗之中度过的。
China will impose provisional duties of up to 42.7% on certain dairy products imported from the European Union, Chinese authorities announced on 22 December 2025. The measure is presented as a reaction to an anti-subsidy investigation launched by the European Commission more than a year ago, which covered dairy exporters in several EU member states, including the Czech Republic.
The provisional duties apply to selected categories of dairy imports from the EU, with the maximum rate reported at 42.7%. Beijing framed the tariffs as temporary countermeasures while related investigations proceed. The initial notice did not list all product lines or give a definitive duration for the measures.
The announcement may affect EU dairy exporters and bilateral trade flows, particularly in countries named in the EU inquiry. Additional details from Chinese and EU authorities are expected as the situation develops. #China #EU #dairy #CzechRepublic #FiatNews
