Believable misinformation existing is a good thing. It means there’s still a possibility of anonymity.

Most annoying physics in our universe: drop something even a short distance and that shit can go infinitely far sideways on level ground with nothing but friction to slow it down until it hits something. Result: always goes under furniture regardless of how far away.

Is it just me or has LGBTQ+ pretty much eliminated the concept of “shallowness?” If you like what you like, why should it be frowned upon if you prefer a certain type of woman and others just don’t do it for you?

With the help of AI, CBDCs can be basically done with just new reporting requirements. Banks are required to report all transactions (not just $10k+) to IRS which then have AI flag activity for more review. I think they don’t even need CBDCs to get specifically approved to get much of its surveillance.

Tech minimalist Bitcoiners are funny. Here are some hard pills for them to swallow: - Internet-connected cameras at home are superior home security. You can monitor your house and operate home automation systems from anywhere. - Modern EVs are superior. You can get electricity from pretty much anywhere. The grid, solar, diesel generator, even a homemade steam engine - chop trees and throw fuckin logs in there! - Your AR-15 won’t help much against Neuralink’ed invaders who have 360 degree vision and telepathically control drone swarms. (Still wouldn’t have a Neuralink that could do that installed but would an open source equivalent)

Is there any serious testing being done on post-quantum algorithms for Bitcoin yet? If not, why?
