Fair enough! Ok let me see if I can challenge your take on this, I know I can have a civil dialogue with you 😁 I think that the change can actually be labelled “contentious” not bc of technical aspects, but bc of the response that has caused in the community (at this point with 20% knots is clear that this change has indeed pissed many ppl off). Maybe the other guy meant to say this? I also think the other guy got frustrated when you brought into the conversation the “technical” aspect. I guess it links to the whole argument of “trust the devs is another trust the experts system” Since we are talking I’d like to check this with you: I’m a bit worried bc of the 1000% in op_return space. From 80 to 100’000 bytes it’s a massive jump. I feel like we should be on the side of caution and not increase it so much all at once, better do it gradually. Just feel like the stake are too high and we should be cautious and gradual with changes. What do you think?

Curious, did he have any previous knowledge? Just figured everything out on the go using internet/AI? Awesome either way 🤘

You sexy beast

From what I gathered one of the “hottest” point is the excessive increase size of op_return. Can we all come to some sort of agreement by “just” doubling it to 160 bytes? We get the increase but in a more cautious/incremental way, both parties give/take, we all happy?

Here I’m confused because I don’t have the technical expertise to get it: 1) some ppl say that with 100kb you can have a good enough picture that is easy to see (no need for complicated decrypting tools) 2) some other ppl say that it would still be encrypted enough and need very specific/difficult tools to see it I guess I can’t believe that it’s all gonna come crash down so easily: increase to 100kb, cp clearly uploaded, end of bitcoin. Why isn’t everyone freaking out if this is the case?! Anyway I see a lot more pressure coming up this last month to force core devs to reconsider their choice. Let’s hope they do so that we can go back to fighting together against external adversaries. If they don’t change their mind I guess we will find out as soon as core 30 is shipped out By the way, this is an image of 100kb (looks clear enough to me, but i don’t get if it’s encrypted or not)

Enjoy it, 30’s are sick (said from a 34 lol)

Hell yeah being handsome gives you way more opportunities in life, ppl are way nicer and open to you, this is a scientific fact. I think the trick is to see it as a “bonus/extra” you are given and not let your life/personality being defined by it. Keep living and growing as if you were normal and just use your good looks as an extra trick up your sleeve when needed

I got the same problems but I actually like the fact there’s no edit button, makes me be careful and feel more like real life, ain’t no edit button there!!

I like you man but I don't like this post because: 1) there is no evidence here, there is a big assumption on your part that is not possible that so many knots nodes have popped up (which has been proven wrong by the start9 X post). They have man and it's not hard to believe, lot's of ppl really did not like this change and got off their asses to run a knots node 2) this post seems like an attempt to make the "knots sentiment" look smaller than what it actually is. Why? To me sounds something like "no but look, it is not true that 20% of the network disagrees, it actually is just 12%). I don't see any good reason to recur to this On the other hand, to show you I try to stay as objective as possible, I don't like the fact that knots people have come up with the csam narrative only 3 days ago (why only now, and not mention it at the very beginning of all this debate in May?). Instinctively sounds like a way to "play some last dirty card" to apply as much pressure as possible in this last month before core 30 is shipped peace and love

I love it too man, look sick 👍🏼 simple and catchy

Can we perhaps stop all this, and come to an agreement of being more cautious/safe with implementing changes? What about increasing the size by "just" doubling it to 160 bytes and see what happens? from 80 to 100'000 seems excessive to many, let's be cautious, we are talking about The monetary protocol.... I'm simply asking to stop for a second and reconsider togehter here, as this change never had a smooth moment: no full support within core devs community, no full support within the broader btc community, 20% of the nodes switching to knots. Clearly there was and there is not enough support for this change. Please have a talk with other core devs to reconsider, it would only make you gain trust and respect

Look how much push back this thing has got, and how 18% of nodes has loudly voted against. Simply don’t increase the op_return from 80 bytes to 100’000 bytes and don’t take away user configuration options. Simply set it to 160 bytes and leave the option to configure it. This is what is all about, is it too much to ask? Clearly there is not enough support for this change. Please man try have a talk with core devs

my good friend, I find you again, and often I see you get insulted or told to fuck off when I find you lol 😂
