That would be wonderful, thank you!
tb1qtqpg6la9v02wftcv52d5kmh8t7husa5k8crpdl is my test address, feel free to send an address for me to send the tbtc back to when I'm done.
Thanks again.
Yeah the lack of support for testnet is depressing in the Bitcoin world. Even most guides that are walking a no-coiner through never mention testnet. These new people have a higher risk of looser their coins, and IMO should start on testnet where if they do loose their coins it isn't a big deal.
Yep that is why. I already have Blixt testnet on my phone. I'm also using mynode which afaik doesn't support mutinynet or regtest. I can setup a regtest manually if I want but not sure how many apps will support that.
Why not testnet, it's there for testing?
I got some peers and some testnet Bitcoin but opening a channel has a min of 20k sats, which is difficult to get from a faucet.
Everyone was an outside once. Imagine a situation where someone has no BTC, reads a book like the bitcoin standard and starts their journey by buying BTC on an exchange and then wants to use said BTC to buy a hardware wallet.
IMO it would look very bad to that person that the hardware provider doesn't itself accept BTC.
Why would it decrease over time? I could see the amount of unknowns increasing over time just as much as it could go down.
I agree with the idea that you can't not do something because of unknowns. That doesn't mean you have to do it though. You simple take caution because there might be a lot of unknowns. e.g. in the Agile development world if there are a lot of "unknowns" you just increase the story point therefore signaling that the story/task is more difficult and could take longer.
preventing them from even having a conversation about whether we even like cats (or dogs) at all.
It's funny to me that they are making this claim. I suppose you can't force anyone to have a conversation, but by bitcoin magazine posting this article it does in fact allow conversation. So IMO this article proves this article wrong.
Serious question: Why do you think LN is not crap but liquid is crap? More specifically how do you tell a project is shit or not?
I guess if Luke jr really is "smart" and didn't really loose it he will have to be careful to not expose himself to the FBI.
You don't have to watch it all either, a lot of the episodes stand on their own. 100% recommend though, especially for you DarthCoin; The show has very good dark and vulgar humor.
Can't the CEO come in and fire the other bad apples?
And it's not going to stop unless there are criminal proceedings against the executive leadership.
It will stop once people vote with their wallet and refuse to fly on Boeing plans.
I've been getting into strength training. I bought a power cage, adjustable dumbells, barbell, and 370lb of plate weights all for under $1000 brand new. Working out at home is IMO much easier than working out at the gym. You can get used equipment for even cheaper if you search around.
You can also look at going the crossfit route and get used tracker tires, railroad ties, etc for cheap and throw them around outside.

If all you want to do is run and the weather is nice then that makes sense. If the weather isn't nice or you want to lift a lot, or target certain muscles then the gym makes more sense.
I tried to do some testing with a multisig a few months ago and it did not go well. As a result I haven't switched to multisig yet. Here is what I wanted to test:
- Create a 2/3 multi-sig, but use 1 signing device from a friend, and the other 2 be my signing devices.
- Be able to use software like Sparrow to sign a PSBT myself and then send it to the friend for them to sign in a situation where I lost one of my signing devices.
The idea being that I could use my friend's signing device as a recovery option if I lost 1 of my signing devices. Using all the technology that already exists we should be able to do all this over the internet.
Idk if the issue was they were on a Mac or what but we were never able to actually successfully sign a PSBT and broadcast it. I could do it locally when I tested with 3 signing devices, but when I would sign a PSBT and send it to them Sparrow had issues with signing it.
Very cool project. I would love some pics of the setup.
Also, Have you used the s9 in place of the s19? Maybe the s9 will work with your solar and batteries better?
I was thinking more around pragmatism.
Pragmatism isn't a moral framework. You can argue if killing someone is pragmatic, but most won't care about that, they care if it's moral.
If I am an average guy who is happy with my life, why should I risk "letting the market solve national defense?" At best, I pay less in taxes. At worst, my country gets invaded by China.
Because what you are supporting is immoral.
Fair. Under your definitions, can you imagine a scenario in which this is the case? If not, why not?
Sure, under almost any metric humans have flourished in the last few hundred years. Now did they flourish as a direct result of a constitution? I don't see the connection between a constitution and human flourishing.
This was listed in the post I linked as one of the hard questions libertarians need to answer.
I understand that, what I don't understand is where the baby in the ocean thing came from. Who ever said throwing a baby in the ocean isn't immoral?
Please note - the questions I posed are what I think libertarians need to answer if they ever want to have a legitimate voice in the direction of their country (at least from my perspective in the US). I am already opposed to most regulations. I also think there are some that probably do more good than harm, but those are very limited and I can't think of any examples off the top of my head.
Sure, but that's all just your opinion, man. My opinion is that a Libertarian (big L) isn't going to be able to do anything to get a legitimate voice. Look at what happened to Ron Paul when he ran. You can also look at what happened to Bernie Sanders. In the USA if you don't run as a D or a R you are not going to make it anywhere, it's been proven for years.
