no.

how about this

how is she powering all that stuff

an embossing manual tapewriter is another option - no electronic data security threat, the plastic tape would be waterproof too - not fireproof though, and i dunno how resilient the plastic would be over time.

should have called it 'Howzap!'

Yet another dead in the water feature fork - these niche circlejerks with their echo chamber 'consensus' and distinctly troll-ish promotion are noise, tbh.

"On the other hand, if blocksize is too small, individual users will not be able to economically transact on the chain. They will once again be forced to use trusted intermediaries to transact on their behalf. The prevalence of custodial wallets and exchanges highlights this problem."

this part seems off to me - people use custodial services because they perceive them as convenient, not because blocks are 'too small' - it may become a reason in future, but isn't currently.

on a side note, i'm still wondering if chris belcher, whose teleport transactions this is a fork of, was injected back in 2021/2 - his work diary claims 'long covid' to be the cause of the blood problem that stopped him working, but the description of the clotting of his blood seems anecdotally closer to some of the needle stories of late.

not a foreign language, but a foreign accent - these two things are not the same - it's not a theory, it's an experience.

Every foreign person i interact with, including my Paraguayan next door neighbour, speak English to me with their own accent - it's perfectly natural to do so, whoever is doing it - i have no trouble understanding any of them, and see no reason why 'they should' do anything else - how is this not obvious ?

lol, in decades of living in London, being surrounded by the races of the world, not one of then has ever adopted a comedy English accent when speaking in any circumstance - you seem abusively upset by an observation - if anyone's on a horse, perhaps it's you.

When foreign people speak English, i've yet to hear anyone (including the Peruvian guide in the video) speak it with anything other than their native accent - feigning the accent of the race/culture of the language being spoken is a strange affectation - if the Peruvian guy in the video had adopted a comedy English accent to speak English it would have been a curious sight. Anyone might speak other languages with degrees of fluency, but they don't speak them natively.

Ever notice how English people tend to adopt a fake accent when speaking foreign languages ? When other races/cultures speak English they tend to do so with their own native accent. I've long been irked by this tendency in English speakers and so deliberately use my own accent when abroad ( not that i often need to use my tourist Spanish or German), and have not had any problems with foreign people, but once, some way back, was bizarrely mocked by another English speaker for my pronunciation - who then went on to try to school me by putting on a comedically thick fake Spanish accent to repeat what i had just said. It's a bit weird though, aint it ?

Anyway, nice video.

All these years actual Bitcoiners (NOT fiat speculators) have been explicitly informing everyone to avoid kYC - there is no excuse for anyone who fails to listen, think, and learn - so many have chosen badly, and will suffer at the hands of whichever state they foolishly complied with... maybe only harsh experience and significant cost will teach them ?

American invention ? The public writings of Satoshi seem to lean more towards being the expressions of a British author, or more pointedly, English.

The genesis block even contains a Times headline referring to the Chancellor of the Exchequer.

This guy keeps trying to push these things, but there seems to be little to no organic enthusiasm for any of it - if there is no perceived great need, or sense of threat to rally people, no momentum is gained - and after the bitter taste that the Inscriptions garbage left in the wake of Taproot, it's not surprising forks are less than attractive - the beauty contest analogy here is fitting, but rather than a particular entrant, it seems the pageant as a whole is considered unappealing at this point.

This post and the majority of it's comments seem ironically, or perhaps perversely, to be an example of the behaviour described here - #796267

OOF!

yes, post #779927 has the feel of an infomercial

always liked whichever Beatle played this - the backward phrasing and the way it fits into the mix, and for it's brevity -
