Teenager sind auf Social Media nicht freiwillig – sie stehen unter massivem Gruppendruck. Eltern kämpfen zwischen Schutz und Loslassen, während Apps gezielt süchtig machen. Aufgeben ist keine Lösung: Gespräche wirken oft später, als man denkt.

An appetizer or snack made out of fresh ingredients combined with preserves.

Sabbath is not rest as recovery for more work. It is resistance against systems that demand constant output, visibility, and optimization. In a culture that never stops measuring worth by productivity, Sabbath quietly declares freedom.

Sabbath is not a reward for finishing your work. It is a gift given before productivity begins. Treating rest as something to be earned reverses the order God established.

This article is published during my live demo / talk 'POSSE content with Drupal using Nostr' in the Collaboration and content management devroom. Thank you for this opportunity!

Modern culture equates renewal with reinvention: new brands, new narratives, new selves. This essay argues that true renewal works in the opposite direction. Renewal is not about becoming someone else, but about remembering what was already true—and rebuilding from that foundation. Continuity, memory, and preservation are not nostalgic impulses; they are acts of fidelity in a world addicted to novelty.

We must shift how we spend our time, energy, and resources to create a more soulful society. It starts with you.

Is the current State just an enormous and (highly dysfunctional) "ancap voluntaryist enclave" already, and libertarians are actually the NAP-breaking enemies of civil agreement?

A quiet invitation to those who sense the deeper resonance of place, purpose, and verifiable value—where Tulum’s luminous energy meets intentional living and circular stewardship.

As artificial intelligence drives the cost of everything toward zero, it's accelerating toward a head-on collision with debt-based monetary systems that require inflation to survive. Bitcoin isn't just digital gold, it's anti-surveillance infrastructure disguised as money, a parallel system where AI's productivity gains flow to participants rather than being extracted by monetary authorities. The real AI trade isn't betting on which companies profit from machine intelligence. It's choosing which...

The central unit used to measure value violates the basic rules of measurement. As long as this error remains uncorrected, social and economic disorder is unavoidable.

Meditations on slop, why I'm not convinced, and what to do about it.

This is a test article sent from the Scriptorium-Obsidian client.

What happens when you stop performing and start paying attention again.

Digital communication technology has exceeded its optimal scale, establishing a radical monopoly over human interaction. Internet platforms intermediate private relationships, extract value through surveillance capitalism, and reduce people to quantifiable metrics. However, certain digital tools can subvert the architecture of the corporate internet to safeguard individual freedom and human flourishing within digital environments. Two digital tools embody this conviviality in particular: open s...

A quick overview of the wallets that support sending and/or receiving BOLT 12 and Silent Payments.

In diesem Beitrag erfahren Eltern, warum es sinnvoll sein kann, ein kleines bisschen Bitcoin zu besitzen.

Not your keys, not your coins. This guide walks you step-by-step through setting up the BitBox02 on Linux, Android, and iOS – including critical notes on udev rules, proper backups, and the dangers of the optional passphrase.

W is being sold as Europe’s principled alternative to X, but in reality it is a case study in how centralized power, regulatory hubris, and elite technocratic anxiety collide with market reality. Announced at Davos and framed in the sanctimonious language of “fighting disinformation,” W is not a social network built for users, it is a state-adjacent communications platform designed to make speech legible, governable, and controllable. By mandating ID and photo verification, ignoring network effe...

Indexing is power. When centralized systems blur indexes and restrict synthesis, they don’t delete knowledge—they make it unusable. That’s how agency is quietly pulled back and cognition becomes tiered. Decentralized systems like Nostr and Bitcoin matter because they preserve memory, keep synthesis accessible, and let builders route around enforced amnesia.

Why we're putting books on Nostr, and not where they already are.

Open podcasting needs interoperable payments - and Bitcoin and Nostr provide the payment and metadata layers to make this possible

Millions of Bitcoin are lost because private keys die with their owners. This guide explains how to use Liana Wallet and Miniscript to create an on-chain inheritance plan that relies on math and timelocks, rather than lawyers or trusted third parties.

We, the First Presidency and the Council of the Twelve Apostles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, solemnly proclaim that marriage between a man and a woman is ordained of God and that the family is central to the Creator’s plan for the eternal destiny of His children.

Bitchat adopts Rust Arti for Tor. Listr returns AI-powered. Zeus fixes NWC. Primal adds wallet backup. NIP-11/66 enable relay trust scoring.

This NIP defines a protocol for CouchDB-like document synchronization over Nostr, enabling multi-master replication with conflict detection and resolution.

When AI handles compilation and patching tasks, source-based computing finally escapes the domain of experts, ending decades of binary distribution monopoly.

The worst examples are when bots can get through the "ban" just by paying a monthly fee.
