Last Notes npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo It is the most obvious all computer OS’s are missing npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Integrating AI will be standard in a year across all distros. Omarchy is just pretty and tiled by default…and has an integrated set of toolbars. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Not gonna lie: #Omarchy is really nice… But realistically any Linux distro would be much nicer with Omarchy’s auto AI diagnosis of a crash and key binding to ask AI to configure something or write a script or whatever. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo I arrived late to Bitcoin in July 2010. Everyone arrives late to Bitcoin. If you allow the feeling that you are late to Bitcoin cloud or paralyze your judgement, you’ll never be accused of being early to Bitcoin. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo FWIW, @npub1w27…z70r & @npub18m7…q955 weren’t working reliably together on my account for months…I eventually just sent all funds to a new 1 tap account on coinos from my personalized coinos account… npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo 🙏 npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo I don’t get it. What does it mean to build a staging ground into your multisig? npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Scams are more common than Bitcoin OGs. And the printing looks “weird” because of physics, so I get it. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo One can do everything necessary with a coin. Each numbered bip39 word is 11 coin flips. Dice is a little tricky to use “the right” way because 6 is a non-integer power of 2 (without a coldcard I should say). Creating entropy is a mechanical grind and if you’re targeting 24 words any bias your setup brings to the creation will still almost certainly be at least as good as a truly random 12 word seed phrase. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Fiat can do something Bitcoin itself can’t: have a risk free lending rate. There is no issuer of bitcoin denominated debt that can guarantee repayment, unlike the situation where the borrower is also the printer. There is no bitcoin printer. Believe it or not, this is actually a knock against Bitcoin! But why? Because people LOVE zero risk situations…kind of in the same way that people love unicorns. They don’t really exist but if you can sell them you can make bank! npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo And that’s why I am a scammer. That said, it is somewhat understandable…the 3D printing leaves some cosmetic issues, like the leg of the “p” is kinda short when printed on the up side… But to conclude I must be a scammer based on so little info is beyond me… I kinda thought selling entropia seeds would be fairly easy for kids to do as a mini-intro to entrepreneurship…and I still think it would be at the right price, but 16 hours of printing with having to stop 8 times to remove a sheet probably isn’t the best fit for kids…because it ends up taking 2-3 days because of course they’d forget mid-print or wouldn’t be available to remove a sheet and it ends up being a marathon… npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Sounds bad npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo You could learn to ask first rather than be a dick about it first. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo This is hilarious. And sad at the same time. #nevent1q…27r7 npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Fair point. You are asking for proof these are the bip39 words…which I freely admit I did not verify. Let’s pick a few and see if they work exist on : https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0039/english.txt This is truly a valuable exercise, one which would be obvious if one tried to use it for seed generation npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Well, maybe you could be correct, in a way. I did not print them but maybe the idea was so simple someone asked AI to make a 3D stl file of the bip39 seed phrase list. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Yeah, but that turns the endeavor into pure expense. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo All you really need is a coin. Flip it 11 times to pick a word from the word list. But what exactly did you have in mind? I’m trying to get those kids interested in 3D printing and entrepreneurship. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo That’s where I bought my original set from (they used to cost $80, not $100)…anyhow that’s why I don’t need the seeds I bought from my friend…but I’m glad to see he opened up his store again. I met the seed signer guy in Prague in 2024 and bought a fancy anodized seed signer from him. He’s a cool guy. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo I have a set of unbroken entropia seeds…all 2048 of them. I gave a family friend $80 to print them for me (mostly because they have 5 kids and homeschool and are awesome people), but I don’t need them. But if anyone wants to send me $80 in bitcoin I’d be happy to send them along…and request another set of entropia seeds. My understanding is that these don’t take too much trial and error to get right but can take 16 hours of print time between the 8 plates of double sided 128 tablets… https://image.nostr.build/8e7d7cbea35e79fe2f4b551fd621fbc11bc46503f4a6b9eff60c4a90413053a2.jpg https://image.nostr.build/f06e90bd89759273465eef0d6df7be5ea89f571bed7c3824b56e81e77aa2f8a0.jpg npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo That is a ton of lumber! npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Because paying $200 a month is a way better deal, at least for now. Not that all AI usage should be with the privacy invaders, but a lot of it is worth offloading to the best, especially while doing so costs them money :) npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Bitcoin going up too fast too soon isn’t good for anybody…also, if bitcoin were to 10x in price, do you have enough for it to matter? A 10x return is about 30 years at 8%…or 13 years in a row at 20%…one doesn’t get many opportunities for such returns in a lifetime. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Only 275%! They got screwed. If only they didn’t have their money stolen and invested so poorly they’d have 3-5x as much. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Are you retarded? Or do you not understand how trust works? npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo I think people are being dumb about this. People chose trust and got burned, not because someone was trying to harm them, but because someone made a mistake that will surely happen again and has definitely happened before. At least coinkite gave people the option to remove trust. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo If you think about your annual salary in bitcoin, you’ll have a hard time retiring…work pays too well. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Coldcard user here since mk1. I had to take action recently on behalf of the one and only person I helped setup a Coldcard. I was forced to act because I couldn’t remember their entropy setup. Nothing was lost. I will continue to use coldcard, but I will take extra diligence to very deterministic nonce use next time I spend from it. I’m probably in the minority of people who still love coldcard, but I can intelligently discuss why they still make the best product for nerds. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo What a difficult place to live. There is nothing more difficult to settle than a land dispute. And a lot of innocent people will be harmed in the crossfire. Not that I have a pulpit to preach from. We stole the land for our country from people who were here first, but everyone neglects to mention that uneasy fact of US history because the people we stole the land from were so busy killing each other that they never quite got to the written language stage…but stealing is still stealing and this doesn’t make the US’s stealing of land any better than how Israel was established. Establishing a nation on contested property rights was always going to go badly for everyone. I’m sorry you got caught in the crossfire. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Ok, I’ve found my next os…https://omarchy.org And then I want the nixos version of it :) npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo I know it’s popular to Pooh-pooh @npub15wc…qy0q's stock-to-flow model, but people do so for the wrong reasons and they are by and large too early. Here is the best fit s2f and shaded range of the 1st through 99th percentile of constant sigma power law. S2F fits in this band from 2012 through the end of 2028. The fact that these two models must massively diverge eventually was obvious to everyone who was really part of the conversation, including @npub15wc…qy0q (he even very frequently reminded people that all models are wrong but that some were useful). I would also add that some models are no longer useful… People argued against S2F and in favor of power law over a time frame where the two models didn’t really differ. Well, we are starting to see the models differ very meaningfully and this will only be worse at the end of the next half decade. Now, was S2F useful? Yes. Useful for everything? No. Example: if you assumed model would hold in 2080 and assumed price would be $22 quintillion as model suggests and calculated a CAGR of 60% from 2020-2080 and decided to borrow money at 40%, this model would prove not useful. https://image.nostr.build/3a673b28f44727834a9066496dbecabd7ec0e812b7f590fdb0e899574bbce5c1.jpg npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo I’ll wait for the next minor firmware revision. I’m already updated for the RNG thing npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Land claims are all about who most recently killed whom… npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo I would not pay more than $550,000 for a bitcoin today. I also wouldn’t pay more than $125,000, but for different reasons. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Ahhhh, I’ve always wondered why sites pushed passkeys over my already long randomly generated passwords. I wonder how transferring passkeys after getting a new phone is supposed to work…or even if it works… My nostr nsec is just in my password manager. And I doubt I worked too hard to create it (I do not “know my (nsec) entropy” as the cool kids say these days. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo It all makes sense now… npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo I dunno…synced to what? But it is definitely a passkey… npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Not gonna lie…I don’t primarily use nostr for the #boobs, but I don’t not use nostr primarily for the #boobs. @npub1el3…l27r @npub12z8…9zmx #paradox npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Epic. I used a 5 gallon bucket. When kickstarter 🤣? npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo All politicians are thieves, it’s just a matter of time npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo I wish I got lucky more often, so I’ll take it 🤣 npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo I support bitcoin existing without any consideration given to what bitcoin must be able to do to be what bitcoin is. If that means I support CSAM, then sure fine whatever. I support everything by that standard. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Exactly. I don’t care about CSAM. People who have to appeal to brainstem reflexes to make their ideas sound good are not serious debaters. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Of course I do. Why? Because nobody can stop that. And if not body can stop it, then I choose to support it because bitcoin matters far more than anything anyone could put on it. If that weren’t the case, bitcoin has no value. In fact, no tool has value by that standard. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo There is no market yet, afaik npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo lol! npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo https://bip110.orange.surf/live.html npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Weird npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo What is the knots vs. Bitcoin score? The answer won’t be knowable instantly. #BIP110 npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo I think there will be a never ending legal battle to recover funds from unsuspecting buyers of bitcoin. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo That’s a good insight and I think I agree, or will agree after i think about it more…marginal price… npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Pretend for a moment we are talking about stolen bicycles. When someone is in possession of such stolen property and the owner finds out who it is, law enforcement confiscates the property so the courts can return it to whoever is found to be the lawful owner…the bicycle itself gets returned to the owner, regardless of how much the current possessor then bicycle may have paid for it. Nobody refunds the purchaser…the legal redress for the guy who “bought” a bike that wasn’t lawfully sold now has to go to the seller to seek reimbursement… This is very different from how stolen money would work. If you got paid for labor and the payment was stolen dollar bills, and you had no idea the dollar bills were stolen, that money is yours…this is the exact opposite of the bicycle example. In the dollar example, the victim must find the bad guy and seek legal redress from the bad guy directly. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Consider the lawsuits that will come seeking to reclaim stolen bitcoin…there are now two classes of non-fungible bitcoin tokens: stolen cold card bitcoin tokens and the rest. The legal system will differentiate between the two. Don’t get caught holding the wrong kind because the law is clear: you give those up and seek redress from the bad guy. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo The coldcard fiasco has a very very important and probably not good side effect: bitcoin is not fungible. When stolen cold card coins move into circulation, the first identifiable holder of said stolen coin will be sued in real life to return the coin…this could have massively disruptive effects on bitcoin as money. 🍿 npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Fact check: mostly true Context: most stubbed toes are not broken but do lead to a surprisingly high number of cuss words. Stubbed and _broken_ toes leads to strings of cuss words generally unmatched in the injury kingdom. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Wasn’t me. I always make up an animal not on the zodiac. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo What is the trick? Or are you replacing it? npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo When it works, it’s great. I suspect it would work much better if integrated into an IDE…but I’m literally not looking at any code and it can do a surprising amount of things as long as you have tests that can prove code functioned correctly. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Beyond adorable! npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo When Claude starts going haywire, it really goes haywire. Have to be careful with long unattended workflows. I just had to throw away days worth of “work” on something as simple as filling out tax forms…like the simplest Iine line 7 minus line 5 is greater than zero, enter the amount on line 8 kinda stuff…and there are even instruction booklets. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo You bIP110 supporters are so behind the times. I stopped spam on my node months ago, and I’m ashamed of you that you did not follow my lead of only accepting spam free 50 kb blocks. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo lol npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo I’m sorry to hear of your mental impairment npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Oh, have you heard? Did you know? There are only so many bitcoin. Better get some just in case it catches on! npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Because we all need to try out new things to keep our bitcoin skills sharp, you have got ti check out: https://walletplayground.com Fake bitcoin, real bitcoin hardware wallet firmware. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Claude set up https://quantoshi.xyz/ all by itself…nginx, the caching layers, cache update scheduling in cron, ramdisk…it even told me how to get hetzner configured npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo @npub1z07…wfm4 Super excited about my #SeedHammer! Device is solid. I have to wait for my Claude usage to reset to find out if I can add a public key to one of the OTP slots or if I need to get a stencil and soldering stuff to replace the rp2350A so I can run my own firmware. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo I love your heart Kratter. I really do. I think on a technical level you are way off base, but I’d rather know people failing in the heart positive direction than the alternative. At the end of the day, BIP110 is little more than a thinly veiled power grab running off of the beautiful and ferocious hearts of good people who hate injustice…BIP110 harnesses that righteous energy into a technically meaningless software deployment that serves the interests of a surprisingly small number of people (and most certainly not the average pleb). When BIP110 goes nowhere, please don’t abandon bitcoin. The only way to stop spam is to price it out and right now blockspace isn’t expensive enough to do that…BIP110 doesn’t make SPAM/CSAM meaningfully more expensive. CSAM is irrelevant and if CSAMming bitcoin is all it would take to shut it down, it would have happened by now or bitcoin is already doomed. If you want spam to go away, make block space expensive. The amount of data you need to store is the same. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Stamp seed is legit. Two thumbs up. Another up-and-coming solution is Seedhammer for the rich. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Wait until he hears about the cosmic microwave background radiation observed in space from all directions! npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo As a hobbyist programmer, I’ve only ever used Claude. I wouldn’t say I’m happy with it…it complicates things and parses things so finely that it never seems to finish a software feature. It has gotten better at properly abstracting things to the right degree (since February). That said, I’d never be able to some things without it (reproducible builds, for example). npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Anarchy is commonly used as a synonym for chaos; and chaos is used as a means for tyrants to take power. I always remind people that anarchy is the absence of rulers, not the absence of rules. It is the theoretical ideal form of government and not unlike what heaven is conceived as (I get the analogy between God and king but in heaven is there really a need for a justice system?) npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo One of the dangers of living through a bit of history is that you might be completely wrong about the truth of it! Here is an example: When did HIV start? If you were in elementary school in the 1980s you may have seen an educational video that was filmed in my second grade classroom and you may have been taught the disease was “new.” But that ”new” was never true. It wasn’t a lie, per se, not intentionally at least, but scientists and physicians thought they had discovered something new. And the rate of recognition of cases made the apparent spread of the disease look far worse than it was in reality. Don’t get me wrong, gay men spread it well, but that’s not the whole story. HIV in humans dates back to the 1920s. But it’s hard to get a lot of money for a pandemic if it started 60 years before your grant proposal. Interesting video here: https://youtu.be/61bgzr1LE8A npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo It’ll be a while before I travel like that. And I started stacking in 2010 🤣 npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Yes. Tasty chicken. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo I have to wait until Saturday night to reset my usage to try it. Sounds like it might be better than fable for coding npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Rule of thumb: buy 6 months before halving, sell 18 months after. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo This is 1000% true…the text of your post…I can’t listen to the video atm npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo BIP110 doesn’t go far enough. I think we need a central bitcoin block size committee to decide what the block size should be for the next 2 weeks. I suggest we start at 50 kB. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Ah, like extreme night shift npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo What is red mode npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo This is rather impressive performance for such low end hardware. The RAM impact is unfortunate though…I wonder what the plot would look like going over generations of hardware/ram combinations. I’m pretty sure my bitbodes b1 running at 2.5 watts had 1 GB RAM (https://github.com/FinalHashLLC/bitnodes-hardware) and I’m pretty sure that won’t cut the mustard today, so to speak. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo That’s more like it! npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo PGP web of trust idea rears its head again! Long history behind this problem! npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Exactly. In English a common saying is “the road to hell is paved with good intentions.” npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo I’m glad your feelings are tilted towards _wanting_ to do good. The fact that the result of your actions is nil is quite good because BIP110 is a minor net negative for bitcoin’s usefulness as money…good intentions alone are not sufficient for improving Bitcoin. Sheeple exist everywhere and emotional manipulation is so easy compared to compelling technical analysis. That’s why these “debates” take years to play out: you have the real debate happening in public in long email chains between technical folks and the political power/emotional manipulation “debate” happening on GitHub and Twitter and nostr. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo No. Not even close. If you don’t want to store, you prune. The reason you _want_ to relay spam is to make it impossible for the largest miners to offer a separate transaction processing system where spammers pay extra to make the biggest miners more profitable to process their garbage…free relay allows small miners to remain competitive (big miners could mine at a loss on bitcoin network transactions if spam payments on their private transaction submission networks are large enough). You have to come to grips with the fact that we, as a humanity, haven’t found a way to make a meaningful dent in spam. And blowing open op return is very much like opening a window to prevent the thief from breaking it…knowing that the thief can’t be stopped. Social signaling that we don’t like spam is a good thing. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Even more reason to not care about bip110and relay policies in general. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo But i thought you were a dog? npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo You probably believe you help the network by relaying transactions or bringing up new nodes. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Totally agree. Blocksonly=1 If you get that, let me know. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo 🛫 npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Because you are arguing for censorship of Legitimate monetary bitcoin transactions unashamedly npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Your feelings are clearly getting in the way of your thinking. Sorry to have wasted your time. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo My starting point was that only people with good hearts and poor technical understanding are willing to engage in this topic. And you have proven me to be correct. Ask yourself: why do you ::feel:: the need to address spam beyond how it is already successfully addressed? Your feelings are a problem and your lack of understanding is a problem. What I’ve learned from conversations like these, there are plenty of people out there who can not be persuaded by facts. Ask yourself if that’s true for you. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Spam is addressed by fees npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo It is true that pruned nodes can’t use electrum. But what you said was that tx with large op returns won’t work with electrum. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo Spam makes you feel bad is not the same as spam is bad. Full bitcoin blocks is a tradeoff: fees & security vs. cost of storage forever. Prunable UTXOs does keep ram usage lower for longer which will allow devs more time before they have to come up with a clever caching strategy…bip110 UTXOs with spam will stay in Utxo set and are not provably unspendable like op return spam. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo That’s simply untrue. Like objectively false. If you mean you do not want to prune, I hear ya. But whether you store spam or morally righteous numbers in your chain is irrelevant to running electrum. npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd drgo If you’re unaware of why stuffing spam in prunable transactions is preferable to where spammers will place spam otherwise (either on bitcoin or bip110coin), then you don’t have a good technical grasp of the heart of the discussion.
