A bank in India has sent me a bank statement email (meant to be sent to their customer). Ignore that they sent potentially sensitive information to a stranger. The statement pdf is password protected. And the email says the password is first 4 letters of his name and last 4 digits of the account number. Both the name and account number are given in the email. Q. So what did the password achieve? A. Bank grade security!
Yes, agreed.
Going all in on cryptocurrency (Bitcoin, and others) is a good ideal. The path to it is not as straight forward. The traditional systems are designed to lock you in. For example, amy large purchase (house, car, etc) is likely goinh through a conversion to fiat because most sellers don't accept cryptocurrency. Your child's college would probably require fiat for fee payment. Given, how volatile the fiat vs cryptocurrency market is, it will keep aa significant population away from converting their life savings.
"Reimagining Islam" may be a problematic phrase. Looking at website's mission statement, it feels more of an effort to "reimagining Islamic art".
"When you argue with him, you make him feel that you are at the same level. Don’t!" This is a great piece of advice when supervising a bullshitter. I have wasted time and energy whenever I have ignored it. Short, authoritative messaging works best.
You're right, I had to go to dashboard, then tap on the dropdown menu (in the top nav bar) to choose "Bookmarks". Thank you.
Bitcoin adoption in Pakistan is crap. There are no respectable and/or well known exchanges here. There is nothing in Bitcoin thst makes it Halal or Rina free.
Whatsapp on the web browser encourages to download the app, making disingenous claims that the app is faster and as if it is impossible to do such calls within the browser. Most probably the "app" is the same code that runs in a browser but wrapped within electron. And by being able to run outside of the browser's sandbox (being an app), it can access more of your system and gather more personal information.
These are not controlled by Zionists, correct?
doesn't show bookmarks?
Jokes on you, no sych chain can exist because there would be no consensus.
Cardano/ADA is one of the two most academically sound cryptocurrencies (the other being Algorand). Calling it a shitcoin is ignorant. There is nothing "Islamic" about cardano. Calling it (or any cryptocurrency) Islamic is equally ignorant.
What are the alternatives?
Packagestan, Love it!!!
Would be interested to try it out. Is it going to be open source? Are you planning any security audits?
There is an opportunity here for Pakistan, and other markets where Amazon has no presence, to come up with its own alternatives. Build a more transparent and ethical platfom. https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2025/oct/05/way-past-its-prime-how-did-amazon-get-so-rubbish
Thank you both
