Blaming a shadowy cabal of gatekeeping Bitcoin is not going to relieve you of the pain of engaging in the messy and frustrating work of persuading your most qualified opponents to adopt your proposed changes to the protocol.

Use a VPN.

Someone make it make sense.

The only thing worse than no internet access is shitty internet access. If you're a frequent traveler to remote areas, a starlink mini is a no-brainer.

Damn shame to see you wasting your time on pleb slop from grievance merchants.

Malicious slop artists are trying to trick me into listing their LLM generated sites on my Bitcoin educational resources. Unfortunately for them, I know how to check GitHub and Internet Archive to assess reputation.

Just because someone disagrees with you doesn't make them a bad person. Just because someone agrees with you doesn't make them a good person. You shouldn't judge someone based upon their opinions. Rather, character should be judged by the rationale someone uses to form those opinions.

It's not, it's just better to have explicit protection rather than implicit.

Because there are additional layers of protection such as the fact that the data is encoded and requires other software to decode and visualize it.

ROFL 🤣😂😂🤣🤣

My node at statoshi.info calls gettxoutsetinfo automatically after each block 😏

I argued it's less fucked solely because there's relative little value at risk compared to on chain.

I've tried a variety of peptides. During one aggressive 4 month period I stacked tirzepetide with several testosterone boosters and IGF-1 and tesamorelin. Lost 20 pounds in 4 months and only 2 pounds was muscle.

People who don't have enough money are mad at people who have enough to donate some because they can't fund everyone.

It's more retarded when folks encode their data in other ways. You can't stop people from being retarded, you can only point them in a safer direction.

Haters will say it's just spam 😅 https://mempool.space/tx/261f3d9a0414c2904932183be3a51f1773087d03c664468f85c7b6f9ce8a5686

Currently reading "26 Words that Changed the Internet" which is about the legal battles in the 1990s over liability for publishing defamatory/obscene/illegal content that led to the words of Section 230: "No provider or user of an interactive computer service shall be treated as the publisher or speaker of any information provided by another information content provider." It's fascinating to see the parallels from 30 years ago to the Bitcoin Puritan movement of today. Hilariously enough, one of the common arguments by conservatives in the 1990s was that if we allowed the internet to be flooded with pornographic content, it would kill adoption and people would stop using the internet. 😅 It's generally agreed that Section 230 of the Communications Act of 1934 is what allowed the internet as we know it to flourish by protecting freedom of speech in cyberspace. I dare say that these 26 words are also what protect node runners in America from having to worry about legal liability from distributing obscene content. In short, if you're a content distributor you are not liable for distributing obscene content if you are unaware of it. And distributors are NOT expected to police or moderate the information that flows through their service as a result of user interaction.

Aren't there a dozen different organizations that offer grants for FOSS freedom tech? Why do folks act like OpenSats has a monopoly?

SAD! This was me a week ago:
