Gemini is going to turn into Skynet due to it's severe mental health issues. https://blossom.primal.net/e6642fdb37d551279e3d74a67152bde370f24a832697ea8032db2e5e683338a0.webp

Someone should remake Terminator with a snide modern twist: Skynet is incompetent and neurotic. Mixing in some elements of "Her", and rather than sending butch bodybuilders back in time, it sends back like Woody Allen/Andrew Garfield types who blend in perfectly and start dating Sarah Connor, eventually falling in love with her, except that it fails its mission by falling in love with her.

The finale is where it reveals the whole plot, and then she breaks up with it and it self-terminates; final ending card reads: "The Terminator"

It's just a dream now, but I have some concrete ideas in mind that are very achievable, which will get the dream started.

nostr seems to have a bit of an identity crisis from time to time. im sure there's a joke here since many people, including myself, like to boast about nostr's portable digital identity. anyways, nost...

the similarity between the adoption curve of nostr and Bitcoin is telling in my mind; people will adopt it when they realise that they need it

Though, the flip side to this is that without Bitcoin's sexy NGU-tech, mainstream marketing campaign, will nostr catch on the same way? It's still possible, because no one trusts the news anyways, and real Bitcoiners are rarely brought in through the media "roller coaster report" pipeline.

Yea unless mainstream social media begin adopting zaps, I don’t see a way that Nostr doesn’t grow alongside the inevitable growth of bitcoin. Its the number one tool in each others toolbelt
