Diversity may be bad for compatibility, but good for centralization. I will let you decide which is more important.

I am morally siding with bitcoin mechanic.

The whole removal of the limit seems logical to me, but this nonconsensual push to merge the change makes me against it...

Yeah, me too. That's why I decided to ask ☺️

Won't the local reserve remain on yoir side in this way (in other words - have you tried this 🤔)?

Yeah, it's funny 🙂

With the full acknowledgement that the situation in most of Africa is bad, I think here the problem is caused by everything being set up with the expectation of uninterrupted power. I can guarantee you that if power in Spain starts regularrily stopping for hours, people will adapt so that the impact of such events will be minimal.

In that line of thought when I ask people here about offline lightning payment i get "smart" (in quotes of course) responses like "If you don't have internet and power you have bigger problems." Yeah, thanks.

OK, I bought a 10 000 000 sat channel from megalithic for 154000 SATs. I will use it , but I am thinking that if I wasn't exploring different bitcoin things, doing something like this just to receive money seems very expensive. This is for the hypothetical scenario where you receive salary and what to accumulate money with time.

Isn't cashu the same (on the relevant points you said, I am ignoring the rest)?

Federations are scam or fedimint is scam? I don't get it. I had Fedimint tokens in the past when I was playing with and haven't see them disappearing. Are the Fedimint developers scammers? I don't understand. What is USAID abbreviation for? What does it have to do with Fedimint or federations?

Problem solved 😀

As I said unfortunately the thing that happens is that robbers rob you and don't kill you. So you are not carried by anyone because you are alive.

Of course I see the value in posturing that you are irrational and will kill the robbers regardless of consequences since if they believe you they won't rob you.

Yeah, unfortunately the nash equilibrium is exactly what happens (even in gun happy USA) - people are robbed and that's it.

Usually in places where guns are disabled the third option is robber robs you and gets away. As a specific American band would sing "Sad but true".

Shooting a robber and going to jail is not really a win lol

I think there has to have been some direct or indirect cohesion behind the scenes. Some of these "woke" decisions were obviously absurd and I am quite sure most of the employees that had to implement them had to know that they are absurd, but couldn't say so.

What? Younger is better. There was once upon a time societal advantage of being older, but with such a difference in young and old people with this is no longer the case. Younger is better always.

I think somebody has thought about that and that's why ip rights and patents expire and are not perpetual. Whether this is the perfect system I don't know.
