  • Why are you asking us our business man? Don't you know we care about privacy??

  • I have a question: if your KYC checks are required by law and the result of automated risk prevention systems, how can you guarantee no KYC for monerujo users?

  • Stay strapped or get clapped kids. Learn the lesson the easy way.

  • First, no he did not. He released information relating to government officials engaging in misconduct. Hillary Clinton had been a government official for a long time, Trump had not. Of course youre more likely to get that kind of information on her and not him.

    But even if he had, having a political allegiance is not a crime punishable by prison as far as I know.

  • It's probably a good idea, but requires a person fluent in English and Chinese to do the translation. You want to do it?

  • Nope. I have fast internet and good displays and I still prefer 720p video. I just don't see the benefit of multiplying the filesize by 4 to see marginally more detail. Even 4k, if I wanted to have a 4k display, I've seen people's displays and after the initial disorientation and crispness, the appeal wears off. 720p is perfectly adequate.

  • Yup, and I won't buy a new gas car either.

  • I'll tell you why I won't buy one.

    I'm not going to go into debt as much as a house would've cost me 20 years ago so I can drive a 10,000 pound explosive that I spend several hours a day charging, be asked to pull over to turn on Bluetooth, have a tracking device in my car, which the government can turn off if they like, have to fumble with a touch screen to turn up the air conditioner, have to pay rent for features built into the car and then have any features I purchased be non transferrable on the secondary market. These are all fuck you's to me, so I say fuck you to them. Take your vendor lock in SAAS product and shove it up your ass. You want me to give a shit about emissions, fix all that, until then I'm driving a 20 year old beater.

  • It will hurt US manufacturers, because their budget gasoline cars won't sell.

  • I've been trying to figure out exactly what the point of this is. I haven't asked Alex (haven't talked directly to him in a long time as I have mostly abandoned fedi) but I know he's the first prominent fedi dev to sort of pivot to nostr (a good sign; too many prominent fedi people are more interested in preserving their fiefdoms than the ultimate goal of all this) and has been building some interoperability stuff.

    What I see at first glance is an attempt to slap fedi social model onto nostr? Trying to create a client that gives users a TWKN and local feed of some kind? I don't know, perhaps someone can clear it up for me.

    Anyway, I don't really see the point, a primary benefit of nostr is the lack of network fragmentation and siloing. There's some fragmentation that does occur with failures to fetch notes from relays and things, but not the network splitting and banlist passing and siloed networks like you get on fedi. Trying to shoehorn that UX back into nostr kind of misses the point IMO. I like the idea of community creation as a sort of organizational thing for feed curation without direct follows, it helps discoverability, particularly along lines of shared interest, but I don't really see how the "web ring" like follow structure doesn't achieve that already without the downside of building silos. A global feed, I see no point of that at all.

  • Using a CEX means telling them who you are. No way around that.

    If you use subaddresses you don't have to worry about traceability after withdrawal.

  • So you're not a fan of national self determination then?

  • Pretty often. Most of the newer stuff I like to listen to is on there.

  • Yup, same. I haven't pirated software in a decade or so. I'm not much of a gamer, and the software I do use is almost all FOSS.

    Books, eh. I'll buy an epub or PDF that I can download. I'm not "buying" something that can disappear from my library after license agreements change between corpos. I don't want paper, too heavy and voluminous.

  • I will buy an artist's music on bandcamp if available if it's something that's going to enrich my life for years to come.

  • Oh OK. I see now. Thanks for sharing.

  • Dude, the point of Monero is that you don't need to do any of this. Youre over thinking it. Just generate subaddresses and be happy.

  • Lol OK.

    Points 1 and 2 are correct. The whole "energy money" thing is ridiculous. Bitcoin does follow a power law and if you've read saifedans book you'd be blown away.

    Of course, the things in the book apply to more than just bitcoin. Good luck convincing maxis of that. They just gloss over the details on how magically bitcoin is special. "It can only be done once" or some bullshit like that.

    Yes, in the long run, a thing can only store value if it is liquid. But for now, bitcoin is worthwhile.

    How to proceed... Don't. You can't save people from themselves. And save... What are you saving him from exactly? Disagreeing with you? It's his life, let him live it.
