I've onboarded a lot of people with Phoenix. So far I've never had anyone complain about the fees. Spending a few dollars to create your wallet the first time doesn't seem to bother people. Lots of financial services charge registration fees. View quoted note →

Ukrainian ad for a kids chair that converts to a bed. The bottom right says “in the corridor”. Because during raid raids if you don't go to a shelter, the advice is to sleep in a corridor or bathroom so you at least have two solid walls between you and a Russian attack. Last time I was in Eastern Ukraine one night the shahed attacks seemed particularly close. So I put on a bulletproof vest, closed the blinds, and went back to sleep. I needed that chair. 😂

Russia's response to Zelensky proposing a ceasefire, followed by a fair election in occupied Ukraine to determine whether the population actually want to join Russia: View quoted note → The reality is these Russians are just psychopaths who know damn well that they've brutally mistreated and exploited the population in occupied Ukraine. The only way peace will be achieved in the long run is for these psychopaths to be killed, and/or their economy to be collapsed sufficiently that they just can't fight. Negotiating with murderers is stupid.

I was renewing some domain names and noticed that the @opentimestamps domains were getting a bit close to expiry. They're now renewed until 2035! OTS is here for the long run! Of course, that costs money. Help me keep it running for another decade:

The most beautiful interception ever: Notice how they're cheering it on in Russian... Odesa, Ukraine, is currently kinda fucked with multiple days of total power outage. It's also one of the "Russian speaking" parts of Ukraine that Russian propaganda claims they're liberating. Utter bullshit.

During the recent"negotiations" Putin claimed Russia had full control of Kupiansk. Now... 😂 Interesting thing is I'm told a big part of this successful offensive was unmanned _ground_ robots. It's not just airborne drones anymore.

My most listened songs in 2025 according to YouTube Music's AI: Not that I'd trust the AI... That's not 10...

Yet another ship transporting oil for Russia has been hit, the Dashan: Interesting how Ukraine used multiple sea drones to take it out, even after it had already been hit. Wanted to make sure it was taken out permanently; not just damaged.

The state of Russian aviation: the An-22 heavy transport plane was supposed to be retired a year ago. Desperate for heavy lift capacity the Russian Ministry of Defense kept flying them... and the other day the last one had a catastrophic mechanical failure and crashed, killing the entire crew. 😂 The stupid thing is this could have been achieved years ago with bombs rather than economic failure, saving literally tens of thousands of lives.

There’s Likely No Way Back For Russia’s An-22 Turboprop Heavy Transports After Fatal Crash

The An-22 that crashed was reportedly the last airworthy example of what was once the world’s heaviest aircraft. The An-22 that crashed was repor...

CRAZY I found an example of a token "powering" foundation repair software. The foundation repair part is legit at least. These guys use it to basically tunnel under your house and install piers:

Re: scarcity

Ukraine released footage of their attack on two oil tankers transporting oil for Russia. The entire Russian economy is a valid military target.

Russian attack on an apartment building in Ternopil, Ukraine, 150km from Poland. They used a cruise missile to destroy the top of an apartment building, 25 dead so far including 3 children: They're just psychopaths. The sooner we exterminate Russian culture the better.

Merchants should be required to pass on credit card fees. It's ridiculous that we have cards giving 3% cashback, charging merchants 4%. There's cases where these fees even result in merchants losing money on every sale. The whole thing is a scam only made possible by the duopoly position credit card companies are in.
