I LOVE NOSTR. I use it as my news source, my social app, and my ask-anything tool via asknostr. I struggled with it at first, because everything is so different, but boy things have improved over time! Nostr is the place to be, and i'm here for the ride😊. #Nostr image

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 @fiatjaf. 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. The hyperlinks mentioned are: The original Wikistr, that I forked: https://wikistr.com/ Wikistr Imwald 🌲 https://wikistr.imwald.eu/ https://torahstr.imwald.eu/ https://quranstr.imwald.eu/ https://biblestr.imwald.eu/ GM
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).

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.

Intel closed out a busy 2025 with its shares rising by tens of percent, but a hoped-for turnaround in its foundry business has not yet materialized. Despite market gains, the company has not yet shown a clear revival in contract-manufacturing activity. #INTC #semiconductors The year brought major developments: a new chief executive took the helm and Intel attracted multibillion-dollar commitments from the U.S. government as well as strategic investments from Nvidia and SoftBank. Those moves supported investor sentiment and contributed to the strong share performance. The injections of capital and leadership change were presented as steps to strengthen Intel’s manufacturing capabilities and better position it against rivals, but operational progress in the foundry segment remains limited so far. Continued attention will focus on whether planned investments translate into measurable growth in foundry customers and output. #NVDA #SoftBank #FiatNews
GM ☀️ Your word of the day is! 🔤 Bespoke [bih-SPOHK] 📖 What It Means: Bespoke describes something that is custom-made—that is, made to fit the needs or requirements of a particular person. 📰 Example: As a tailor, Lana specialized in crafting bespoke clothing for her clients, each piece unique and suited to their tastes. 💬 In Context: “The vehicles are bespoke machines with every little detail thought of, from embroidered seats to custom floor mats to retro paint jobs.” — Charlie Berrey, SlashGear.com, 10 Nov. 2025 💡 Did You Know? In the English language of yore, the verb bespeak had various meanings, including “to speak,” “to accuse,” and “to complain.” In the 16th century, bespeak acquired another meaning: “to order.” It is from that sense that we get the adjective bespoke, referring to clothes and other things that are ordered before they are made. Bespoke has enjoyed a spike in usage in recent years, perhaps due to consumer trends that champion all things artisanal over those that are prefab. 🔗

U.S. economic growth accelerated unexpectedly in the third quarter, with real gross domestic product rising at an annualized rate of 4.3% versus 3.8% in the second quarter, according to data released December 23, 2025. The increase was larger than many forecasts, marking a notable pickup in activity for Q3. The figure is expressed in annualized terms, showing the quarter’s pace extrapolated over a year. The report highlights a faster-than-expected expansion compared with the prior quarter’s 3.8% annualized gain. Officials and market participants will use the outturn as a key input for assessing near-term demand and policy decisions, though the release provides a snapshot for Q3 only. #USGDP #economy #GDP #FiatNews
ever realize your wife hits you with terms of service-style conversations? think about it. she goes on and on until youre just nodding along and no longer paying attention to what she's saying. then the next day she's out to a movie with her friends and leaving you home with the kids. what happened? apparently you consented to these terms. good luck!
GM 😀👊☕️ ✅ Walked the dog ✅ 21 min meditation ✅ Cold shower A full day on tap. The meditation was much needed. I have to be honest that I wish I didn’t have track practice today - so much to do before Christmas morning. But once I’m there I’ll be grateful to see the athletes. Have a great day! #coffeechain image
