Nope, I just used AI to translate to Chinese :real_wolp:

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

Images require a leading "!".

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 this on a public repo yet? I'd love to take a peek at the code.

This is actually an expanded version of a previous post. There's still plenty of room for more expansion. Can add a bit, every year.

Somewhere along the lines of us using ones and zeros to control the flow of electricity, and using incantations in different languages to control demons has me slightly confused about programming. I know how to manipulate that to interact with rudimentary HTML but after that I’m a little lost honestly.

Catch up fuckers.

GM friends 🐸 Happy New Year!

Good morning Nostr 🌞 Happy year of the fire horse 🔥🐎🐴🎠🔥 Here's to freedom, passion and dynamic, bold, ambitious action! (Technically doesn't start until sometime in February but whatever I do what I want)

GM ☀️ Your word of the day is! 🔤 Amortize [AM-er-tyze] 📖 What It Means: To amortize something, such as a mortgage, is to pay for it by making regular payments over a long period of time. 📰 Example: If you apply extra payments directly to your loan balance as a principal reduction, your loan can be amortized sooner. 💬 In Context: “As part of some of the league’s commercial deals—where companies pay the league for rights of some sort—the NFL has received equity or warrants. … The warrants are priced at fair market value on the date of vesting and amortized over 10 years.” — Jacob Feldman and Eben Novy-Williams, Sportico, 5 Aug. 2025 💡 Did You Know? When you amortize a loan, you figuratively “kill it off” by paying it down in installments, an idea reflected in the etymology of amortize. The word comes ultimately from a Latin word meaning “to kill” that was formed in part from the Latin noun mors, meaning “death”; it is related both to murder and a word naming a kind of loan that is usually amortized: mortgage. The original use of amortize dates to the 14th century, when amortizing was about transferring ownership of a property to a corporation, and especially to an ecclesiastical corporation—that is, a corporation consisting wholly of clergy. Such land was said to be in mortmain, which under the feudal system meant that the property was permanently exempt from a lord’s usual payment collections. Mortmain is of course another mors word. Its second syllable comes from Latin manus, meaning “hand,” the implication being that the property was held in the dead hand of a corporation—a hand incapable of paying out. 🔗

GM. It is 2026 and this our current world in numbers: * Russia is now 201 weeks into its one-week special operation in Ukraine, and the lights are going out near Moscow. * As part of peace negotiations, Ukraine is being asked to reduce its military from 880k to 600k, which would still give it the second largest military in Europe (after Russia, with 1.300k). It is now a major arms exporter. * Bitcoin is still on sale, at €75k, but the hodlers are shopping the sale. * Gold and silver have Peter Schiff gloating non-stop, at €3.700 and €60, respectively. * Trump is 33.768 hours into the 24-hour Ukraine Peace Deal, but still working hard toward a strong finish. * The U.S. mid-term elections are in 306 days. * American WTI crude has crashed down to $58/barrel (with Russian Ural crude typically at least $20 below that). Both countries are groaning under the drop in revenue, which has resulted in the USA blockading Venezuelan oil cargo. * Iran's consumer price inflation is approaching 50%, with 70% reported for food. Protests have ensued. * Bulgaria is the 21st country to join the euro. * The Middle East is not yet at peace, but the biggest hot war, in the Palestine region, has largely ended. * China is sabre rattling, to deflect from its endemic battle against deflation. Threats are focused on Russia, India, and Taiwan.
