So many bitcoiners are falling for covid-level brainwashing. "You're killing grandma" "You're supporting CP" --- Bitcoiners are supposed to be more intelligent than NPCs.

Y'all can't handle the most likely scenario: Luke loses keys. Calls FBI. FBI realizes Luke has no principles and willing to doxx people. FBI recruits Luke to fragment the bitcoin development environment with hopes of poisoning discourse to such an extent that ossification becomes basically guaranteed. Luke realizes that a literally negligible change in core to increase efficiency could be spun to cause argumentation so that improvements like CTV become more and more ignored, and the main devs less and less trusted. Starts Ocean, claims without filters, bitcoin is dead, gets mechanic on payroll, and just convinces the ignorant. Luke already has knots so he uses that as a tool to convince the technical illiterate to hate core with emotion and feelings. Without improvements like CTV, bitcoin's destiny as a programmable money with real global use-case is reduced. The State wins. If you are supporting knots because you want filters, I urge you to run something like btcd or any other implementation if you want to.

"I dont want to store CP, therefore I will delete it from my RAM but not my hard drive"

If Core is an attack on bitcoin, then Knots is an attack on basic human intelligence.

Moved my desk into the bedroom since my old office is going to be the new baby's room. Im okay with this. Better than buying a new house anyway.

What Bitcoiners think Fintech wants vs what Fintech actually wants.

Nostr is the perfect example of something both simultaneously awesome and fucking garbage at the same time
