It can be more! We talked about how NOSTR is a decentralized social media protocol in Why a Protocol like NOSTR IS Necessary and in Why NOSTR May be the Next Big Thing in Social Media, but it doesn't strcily have to only be social media.

While it is currently in its early stages, there are many possible applications for NOSTR that could be developed in the future. Here are some of the possibilities: Social Networking: We talked about this already, but NOSTR can be...... 
Gigabyte B450M DS3H V2 On 2023 of November I upgraded to a new motherboard to try a Gen 1 Ryzen 7 I got my hands on. I had issues with their sound drivers interfering with the sound drivers of my Logitech headphones. Whenever I joined a voice chat there was static on my end which I found out was caused by the the playback and recording device switching every second between each other.

Soapbox Home TImeline tldr: If you're having weird problems installing the Soapbox / Rebased Fediverse software on your server. Maybe make sure you open port 80 and 443. That worked for me.

Learned a couple things doing that, but when I installed it, certain features were not working the way they should under the soapbox-config settings (I think this was all under the newer Soapbox3 front-end).

So it looks like the Steam Deck has multiple save directories for you proton games the same way the games on Windows are saved across different directories. Found that these are the places to check for games saves. May be under .config/, .local/Proton saves are stored under .local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/~/.local/share/NameOfGame Some games saves aren't synching- not sure if this is because the game we're trying has a separate native Linux port or this happens with proton compatible games too. Anyhow. I found out about this from a Reddit thread. Source here >> https://www.reddit.com/r/SteamDeck/comments/tcxw1e/where_does_the_steam_deck_store_save_data/
