lmfao.
not sure how else to explain that.

Agreed on the being lied to part, but part of it also comes from massive defunding of public health, which turns out to (surprise!) not have been such a great idea.
Don't forget to do a little meth to keep that hollow cheek look.
Me: This person is a meth head who hits themself in the face with a hammer daily. We should stage an intervention and fit them for a straight jacket if that doesn't work.
Society: But they are so pretty. Maybe we just worship them instead?

📰 **Nostr’s Quiet Takeover: Why Block, AI Agents, and a Flood of New NIPs Just Changed Everything**
✍️ by NM team
Nostr isn't just a Twitter clone. Block turned it into its own AI communication layer. Ten new NIPs just shipped. But here's what nobody's telling you: when AI agents coordinate on a protocol where you can't buy attention, the next six months will decide everything. Read on

Yeah, a scarce resource is cherished.
36 exposures, let's hope some of them were good.
Let me present you what could be the future of JoinMarket and hopefully a great tool for Bitcoin privacy and fungibility.
First of all, there is the motivation. JM makers have an onchain fingerprint, that although it's hard to follow, limits the privacy achieved by the takers. The full details are at https://gist.github.com/m0wer/a228c625fcb6a27c32e298ec903dfc44
But to save you some time, here the main problems described there are: unique enough maker fees, co-spending of inputs, makers never spending, ... Which in the worst case scenario, would mean that a pure onchain observer could potentially cluster some makers across mixdepths and reduce the anonymity set by one of CoinJoins where they participate.
So what can we do? Well, we can use this chance to bring JM to the next level. And create such a transaction graph "mess" that becomes a chain analyst nightmare :-)
Let me explain. We can't ever get fully rid of the links between UTXOs onchain, or at least not without a way more complex multi taker model that leads to Knapsack "dense" transactions. But we can strive for something, that is that no single party ever has all the information.
The idea is the following. JM makers could become Lightning Network swap providers. Like Boltz, like SwapMarket, like electrum swapserver. Using Taproot swaps and advertising through Nostr. LN swap users get a simple and trustless client side web UI, makers get "fresh" UTXOs from onchain->LN swaps and the opportunity to "spend" CJ outputs for LN->onchain swaps. Oh, and another source of fees. LN swap users get cheaper swaps from the increased competition.
But this is not enough. We need to break the subset sum analysis onchain. We want to stop maker clustering from the root. Here is the next idea, JM CJ participants (makers and taker) could get their change as an LN channel open. Or two, with random other peers and the change amount split randomly between both channels. So a maker that has a 10 M sats input in a 5 M sats CJ no longer gets just a clear ~5M sats change, instead, two LN channel opens where the balance is hidden. Maybe 2M sats in one and 3M sats in the other. But an external observer wouldn't know. Not even which channel is whose!
You could say, well, but an active attacker could probe those channels balance. Maybe, but not really. Those channels would be private simple taproot (HTLC based, not PTLC yet unfortunately), so not advertised to the network. And, BTW, onchain they look like any other P2TR output BTW. Advertised only when needed with a SCID alias that does not reveal the onchain UTXO. But hey, who knows, maybe some peer node that gets the SCID could try to probe it. Fear not! There's another ingredient coming to the mix.
lnproxy is a great service to hide the destination node of an LN BOLT11 invoice by having a relay/proxy node wrap it. The payment hash is the same, only the recipient can settle the payment. But whoever sees the wrapped invoice sees the relay/proxy pubkey instead of the destination one.
Why not decentralize lnproxy through Nostr and then makers can be lnproxy providers as well? Just to add a little bit more noise to their LN activity and help move the balances around. So that if these change as channels ever close (cooperatively) the onchain fingerprint those not help understand what happened in the opening CJ. Or that UTXO can still be used as CJ inputs if signed cooperatively. Or, of course, as LN channels for swaps of lnproxy. Some kind of noisy spin of CoinjoinXT.
What we need for this and what we're currently working on at jm-ng:
- A JM taproot only pit.
- Decentralized lnproxy.
- Decentralized LN swap providers.
- Protocol wiring for the change as channel CJ coordination.
- People to actually use this and not be overwhelmed by the complexity.
But if we manage to make this work, we will have awesome onchain and LN privacy. And a way for service providers to earn money anonymously by providing privacy to others. So it's definitely worth a try :-)

Coupe du monde 2026: les États-Unis ont mis hors-jeu plus de 500 sites de streaming illégal avec l'opération Offsides, mais leur lutte pourrait être enrayée par l'Iran
Le site TorrentFreak révèle que les personnes derrière les sites diffusant les matchs de la Coupe du monde sans autorisation se tournent vers des noms de domaine iraniens depuis que les États-Unis en ont saisi plusieurs centaines. Un changement qui complique la tâche pour les autorités américaines.

It's about time for a new meme. Though the meme is literally in my job description, so it can't die 😩
That was January or February 2023.
Not so lucky for me.

I never saw Spain as an underdog. I still think the French team is better, it's just that yesterday they weren't up to par, and the Spanish team knew how to take advantage of that.
At the end, whoever lifts the trophy won't necessarily be the best, but rather the one who was more consistent and managed their weaknesses better.

I get what you are saying. I mean compared to? Compasses haven't even existed "for a long time" in terms of the geological scales we're talking about measuring.
The time scale of the processes allegedly predicted compared to the time scale of human ability to measure it alone should make you question.
Unless I'm mistaken there aren't any solid ways to get a historical record with any precision. Ignoring interpretation which is a whole other landmine I don't want to step on, compare measuring gas concentration in old ice cores. We can get modern accuracy of historical data. No equivalent techniques for magnetic fields exists. The precision of the historical record is 0 pre compass and only ever as good as the tools and record keeping of the time. The pole could have been moving 4x as fast 200 years ago and no one would know.
