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.
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.
The internal microphone is on the same board as the webcam in laptops.
Pop the bezel and disconnect the cable when not in use.
Next up: all web pages are full resolution bitmap files.
Looks like fud to me. The keys are for the people running the network. Haveno decided not to run a network and just release software. If they had run a network these would be their keys instead.
Deanonymizing tor Monero nodes… This is not haveno or reto specific. Haveno exacerbates it by increasing the number of Monero nodes on the tor network, that’s all.
Looks like a nothingburger. Could reto be a honeypot? Sure, maybe I guess. But a honeypot for what? What information are they collecting? What are they collecting that they’d need to run a haveno network to collect?
A 2.5" SSD and a sata to USB cable, Mullvad and torrents-csv. I don’t have time for all that overhead, maintenance on that stuff is worse than the time you supposedly save by automating everything. I used to do the deluge seedbox dav server thing, and I had to disassemble it for a reason and found my life got easier after that. Every now and then I just back what I’ve downloaded recently up to the drive.
I do want to run a seedbox again, but just to archive and make available certain things that need to stay available. All the jellyfin owncloud and all that stuff is not worth it to me.

The site says 200tb, and I’m mostly interested in the nes, SNES and genesis archive. I’ve got archives of every game made for those already, but I don’t have every mod and such. Those archives are very small, the nes one is a few hundred megabytes. I’m guessing most of that big number is ps1, 2 and n64 games. I’d probably be interested in archiving those as well but I think the old pre 3d console games are probably worth saving more, since not many people have copies.
