me: *orders food*

me: oh, the order number written here is the same as the fleet number of the bus used on the departure I used to take when going to school a decade ago

is it normal to think like this

@clacke oh i see. no it is not intentional. i will have a look next week, i don't have a computer with me atm

@krille @silverpill @phoenix_r_d Not sure what you mean. Substantial parts of the MIMI protocol have been proposed by US, the matrix folks and the Wire folks. The IETF process is very transparent. Anyone can participate, either by just observing or actively contributing. All decisions and discussions are written down. That makes it easy to debunk false claims like yours :)

@clacke flashbacks to my German language class and trying to pronounce „ jetzt “. And the Italian guy who did so with 4 syllables 😹

@molly0xfff The priceless transcript from jury selection for that trial

@molly0xfff "Trump is about to do a very stupid thing. How can we prevent this stupid thing so it doesn't keep him from being elected president, which is a thing we want to happen."
Dude!

@molly0xfff Maybe they want it to blow up, so they can turn around and blame the Democrats and the Deep State for somehow hacking them? The political press would go along, because they don't know anything and like drama. If they structure it so that their own money isn't exposed, that might be the idea.

@molly0xfff I was absolutely, *absolutely* not expecting what the headline of this piece turned out to be

@molly0xfff On a semi-related note, you may be way ahead of me on this, but I was looking at https://melaniatrump.com/ where Mrs. Trump is teasing preorders for an autobiography, and I discovered this interesting line in the side page for her jewelry line:

"Those who purchase Her Love & Gratitude can also receive a limited-edition digital collectible."

Depending on what this means, is it possible every member of the Trump family is running a separate cryptotoken hustle?

Your Honor, the Wu-Tang Clan ain't nothing to fuck with

Newsletter: Even the most pro-Trump crypto faithful think Trump’s new crypto scheme is a terrible idea. Also, an FTX crypto executive earns some benefit of the doubt, and a lawsuit accuses “Pharma Bro” Martin Shkreli of disrespecting the Wu-Tang Clan.

@lutindiscret @raphaelrobert @phoenix_r_d @1739d937dc8c0c7370aa27585938c119e25c41f6c441a5d34c6d38503e3136ef thanks for the pointer, and looking forward to see what comes out of the OpenMLS rust developments. We presume however it's not yet easy to use it in decentralized settings where group-membership is not strictly ordered. Or did that restriction change?

Hi @delta

I wanted to be sure you are aware there are now multiple project to implement MLS in Rust. @raphaelrobert is working on OpenMLS at @phoenix_r_d. It's being adopted to implement DM in #nostr by @1739d937dc8c0c7370aa27585938c119e25c41f6c441a5d34c6d38503e3136ef

@krille @phoenix_r_d We've been having extensive discussions about this in various IETF groups, with both Matrix and XMPP folks. We are very open to either adhering to existing standards or helping shape new ones. Sometimes you have to start fresh though, that's exactly what we did with MLS and MIMI. I don't see why this couldn't be repeated for s c2s protocol. Either way, join the working groups and propose your ideas!

@krille @phoenix_r_d Yes, neither the matrix protocol nor XMPP protect metadata well enough unfortunately.

@krille @phoenix_r_d That’s why we helped start the IETF MIMI working group to get everyone around the table

@phoenix_r_d Are you open to non-EU candidates?

@pitbuster Yes, we are open to candidates from outside the EU. Our only requirement is that you live in a place that is compatible with meetings during European working hours.

@hippiegunnut
Oh yeah, completely understandable. A ton of projects like this and hobbiest projects in general have had to make major hardware revisions over the past 3.5 years due to various parts shortages. An example that springs to mind is devices using the Arduino Blue Pill at their core that became unobtanium during that time having to be completely redesigned to use eg the RP2040.
