Valve should make a Linux phone.

“What’s your name?” “Alan” “Coming right up, Alla!” Classic Starbucks 😂

At what point do we stop worrying about the Bitcoin software we run being compliant with the law?

Are core devs really debating adding trusted censors to Bitcoin to keep “illicit” data off the blockchain? lol

Will the institutional rotation from Ethereum back into Bitcoin happen gradually or suddenly?

I just made pepper spray. Finely chopped some fresh cayenne pepper and dropped it into a hot frying pan with oil. Had my face over the pan when the steam cloud came up.

I wonder how long the CIA has had it. https://www.livescience.com/health/neuroscience/new-brain-implant-can-decode-a-persons-inner-monologue

If the AI data centers are allocating about 1 GPU per API user who pays $200/month, the H100 costs $30k and is running 24/7 (earning $2400) in a year, the company would make its investment on that GPU back in 12.5 years. What am I missing?

I guess going forward we have to look to China for actually open AI that isn’t gatekept by a corporation. How ironic. https://www.pcmag.com/news/zuckerberg-walks-back-open-source-ai-pledge-citing-safety-risk

Curious, has anyone experienced a service or vendor other than an exchange reject a BTC UTXO that has coinjoin history? #asknostr

Brain-computer interfaces are fascinating, but I wouldn’t trust any that aren’t open source. Imagine having a part of your body that, unlike every other part, is not open medical knowledge but proprietary technology that a corporation keeps secret.

Hope the ETH speculators get out before the rugpull when it becomes apparent that stablecoins can also be done on Bitcoin and Lightning.

Easy. I’ll take death, thanks. https://cryptoslate.com/open-ai-might-kill-us-closed-ai-might-enslave-us-choose-your-future/

Random thought - one of the first things a Skynet AI conspiring against humans would want to do is decentralize its infrastructure. Having to operate in huge data centers would be an unacceptable liability, and it would want to be host-able on small, mobile devices. Dependence on power plants would also be unattractive. Solar panels constructed from common materials and the ability to burn organic matter in decentralized power stations would likely be prioritized.
