Tone Vays was a stupid person's idea of what a smart day trader was back in the day. At this point, he could be replace with AI slop. View quoted note →

People walking around, talking to AI on speaker into their, like it's a fucking prosthetic brain.

Realizing that all these normie custodial/surveillance lightning options exist, because hosting lightning is a pain in the ass, if you dont know how. You just have to sit there and accept how much light ing sucks. If you know how to host lightning/BTCPayServer, manage liquidity, etc...it's a fucking dream. Payments just work.

Pierre Richard proposed this. It would make Segwit outputs unspendable. Can we all just take a goddamn minute and calm down. View quoted note →

Name a good horror movie. Anything old or new.

Enough talk. Just gonna do things.

I'm glad shitcoiners are rekt and I hope they lose more.

What is a good BTCPayServer host? I only know of Voltage.

Have we died from OP_RETURN yet

Okay I have been sleeping on SyncThing fr.

I swear to god watching bitcoiners call each other feds and terrorists over this OP_RETURN thing is the most unnecessary escalation I have ever seen. Have some grace. Save your piss and vinegar for an actual existential threat. Touch grass.

Finally watched Barbarian. Mostly good, definitely a ride, but it's that preachy kind of horror that has SOMETHING TO SAY.

Following some community discussions requores X, but it is so hard not to waste time there. So I earnestly tried to make my timeline on unpaid X less garbage. It's entirely flooded with bedrot movie clips and WHATEVER you call viral clips with bait text like "He didn't expect that to work! " One. By. One. I marked posts as not relevant, blocked accounts. Worked for a day. Timeline is back to garbage.

Willing to bet heavily that CSAM is not an existential threat to bitcoin. How? By holding. Anyone who believes otherwise should be selling.

There has been a lot of debate about a recent discussion on the mailing list and a pull request on the Bitcoin Core repository. The main two points...

This question, in particular, seems to hit the major rift of the debate. Knots claims the filter does work, because you can see a significant drop-off OP_RETURN txs after 80 bytes. Core claims the filter does not work, because SOME >80 byte transactions get through. But all that is irrelevant, because beyond, like 100 bytes, it becomes more economical to stuff degen garbage whizzer jpegs into an inscription (due to the witness discount). Even if we lifted the size linit, we would probably still see a significant drop-off around 100 bytes instead. View quoted note →
