Have you signed up or just learning about it? I saw @moneyball post about it on X I think. And I believe they did a podcast at presidio recently.

I gave it a shot last night. I took out a loan for $5, and it was so smooth and easy. I withdrew the stablecoin and sent it back using USDC on base.

I have an outstanding Strike loan that is due in July. Strike randomly stopped offering new loans in my state, plus the loan minimum is too high for what I need.

So instead of paying it off or having Strike liquidate part of my stack, I was looking for a new platform to use.

I did test out Lygos a few months ago, but the loan has to be set up for you by the app runners. I asked them for a new loan two weeks ago, and still nothing.

Looks like I will be using surge credit for my loan needs in the future. The user experience is great and I can take out what I need and pay back whenever I want while I see my BTC on chain.

Israeli sexual violence against Palestinians: What we know about the UN’s findings

Israel has lashed out at the United Nations after being included on a UN list for conflict-related sexual violence.

Instead of addressing the findings, Israel accused the UN and those behind the report of “anti-Semitism”.

So what does the report actually say?

  • The UN said that in 2025, “the United Nations verified multiple incidents of conflict-related sexual violence, including as a form of torture, inflicted against 14 men, seven women, nine boys and one girl from the Gaza Strip and the West Bank.”
  • The report said: “Violations consisted of rape, including with objects, gang rape, attempted rape, physical violence to the genitals, instances of targeted shooting of the genitals, touching of breasts and genitals, strip and cavity searches conducted without apparent security justification, ⁠forced nudity and threats of rape”.
  • “Rape and gang rape, in some cases repeated, were perpetrated against nine victims, the majority from Gaza,” the report noted.
  • The perpetrators were identified as members of Israeli armed and security forces, with abuses carried out during detention, interrogation and across multiple facilities.
  • The report makes clear that Palestinian civilians – including journalists and human rights defenders – were among those subjected to these assaults. Some victims were filmed or photographed, including in one case of rape.
  • Women faced threats of rape, forced nudity, unwanted touching and degrading strip searches.
  • Men and boys were subjected to rape, attempted rape and direct violence targeting their genitals.
  • At least five male victims suffered severe rectal bleeding or swelling lasting days or even weeks.

11 YEARS AGO TODAY: Ross Ulbricht sentenced to life in prison

It would be cool if you could add territories to posts after the edit window expires!

reply

Imagine the trouble of coding that because user must pay another fee to the added territory.
I think is too much trouble.
Anyways crossposting IMHO is dumb, only creates more clutter and confusion.
Also if the first choice territory for a post is a territory that you mute it, you will not see it in the list.

I’m not deep into the code, but my gut says it’d be pretty easy to make that change. Everything’s done except allowing that edit. It’s crazy, I want to spend and can’t! ~lol

Today’s small surprise.

I asked my Hermes agent to debug why Discord attachments were failing for .md and .json files.

It traced the issue, concluded “the bug is in my own code”, patched itself, then told me to restart the gateway.

I restarted it — and it actually worked.

Agents are getting wild in a very real way. 😂
