I've just released Converse.js 7.0.6

https://www.npmjs.com/package/converse.js

It includes an OMEMO-related fix for a bug that on the surface appears bad (and embarrassing), but AFAICT it's relatively harmless.

However, to be on the safe side, please update and generate new keys (I'm sorry for the hassle).

More context here:
https://github.com/conversejs/converse.js/issues/2500#issuecomment-859448022

Now's a good time to point out that *all* OMEMO work on Converse was done in my free time without pay and the code has not been vetted by security researchers

Here in 2021, bitcoin consumes a small fraction of one percent of global energy consumption.

Most folks don't understand the nuances, and thus don't calculate or project it properly.

I've reached the point where I'm ok with people being wrong on the internet.

I've got better things to do.

It's shocking, but the public has a right to hear the truth about spin in the media. Good on Harry for speaking out.

A #barbelleconomy has a thin middle, and too fat ends, one rich, one poor. Pure #FreeMarketCapitalism should result in a bell curve economy (reflecting natural IQ/learned abilities of people). The barbell occurs because of perverted trade/monetary/political incentives.

A big part of the appeal of the Alien series is the alien and set design made or inspired by HR Giger.

I was lucky to see a Giger exhibition in Basel a while back and managed to snap a pic with a Xenomorph.

Dear #GameStop crowd, you should keep this chart in mind. 12yrs ago we had the #Volkswagen short squeeze. At that time the share collapsed again like a souffle.
