"It is man's intelligence that makes him so often behave more stupidly than the beasts. Man is impelled to invent theories to account for what happens in the world. Unfortunately, he is not quite intelligent enough, in most cases, to find correct explanations. So that when he acts on his theories, he behaves very often like a lunatic."

That much is true. The rest is, ironically, also the same lunacy coming from a form of scientism.

@Vo i still cant post even images for some reason from the app (tusky). Works on desktop

As I am seeing some Medium links in my timeline today, and Medium is pretty annoying (pop-overs and all), reminder you can just replace:

> medium.com

…with:

> scribe.rip

In any Medium link and get a wonderful simple unobtrusive reading experience instead.

@stevenroose @openvibe

any idea why none of the nostr apps for android show up after tapping on the share button for an image?

I'm using this new #Mastodon + #Nostr client called #openvibe. It has a way to go, but I feel that it's on the right track. Single feed for an account on each network.

Ideally I'd have my reposts be posted on both sides. It also often loses track of where I am on the time-line. But in general the experience is pretty smooth!

@openvibe keep it up!

@raucao wait, theres a bridge between mastodon and nostr? How do i cross it

@black6 @elston_ start with Gustave lebon's psychology of the crowd

When the phone was tethered by a cable, humans were free. Now the phone is free, and humans are tethered to it.
