Nice.
Feels good to achieve something so difficult. An irreverence to most people.

Keep it up. We need more men these days.

Or know you need to be.
My observation anyway.
I see way too many people on Nostr that are still confused about the Core vs Knots debate. This is a tl;dr for them. If a longer explanation is needed, they should go over the website below.
tl;dr:
SegWit introduced the witness discount, that ended up making junk data up to 75% cheaper, which opened the door for arbitrary data-carrying transactions to directly compete with monetary transactions for blockspace. In practice, that ended up being an unintended de facto subsidy for spam.
Taproot then provided a way for inscriptions to sidestep the old datacarriersize filter, which is why the UTXO set exploded from around 4 GB in 2023 to nearly 12 GB by 2025, putting real strain on low-end node hardware.
Meanwhile, the Core devs’ reaction has been pathetic — hand-waving it away for two whole years as “free market dynamics” or saying that fixing the exploit is considered “controversial”. At the same time they did a stealth documentation change to pretend the broken filter is “working as intended”. nostr:nprofile1qqs8ha7ms0mny284ma46xjzf72hel42t74jmtttf3trssfymxyq8ngqpz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduq3gamnwvaz7tmwdaehgu3wdau8gu3wv3jhv72x8mv caught them red handed, but instead of apologising for hiding it, they claimed that changing the documentation is a valid way for fixing bugs.
Now they’re doubling down their efforts “to fight spam” they willingly allowed by gutting another spam filter (OP_RETURN) that has worked for 11 years, and helped keep 99.9% of all OP_RETURNs at or under 80 bytes. Larger payloads were possible, but never at the absurd size of 100 KB in a single output.
Core v30, due in early October, will raise the default limit to 100 KB (an 1200x increase), which makes it trivial to upload entire malware files or worse straight into the chain. This isn’t hypothetical — when BSV made the same change in 2019, it was immediately hit with child p[]rn.
The legal and practical fallout for Bitcoin node operators, especially those on cloud infrastructure, hasn’t even begun to be fully grasped.
All these absurd and rushed decisions raise the obvious questions: why push this change through despite massive pushback; who stands to profit from it; and why are the real risks of this happening being ignored or swept under the rug?
🎯
You are correct ser,
—and the mere fact that core supporters are attacking opinions like this one with ad hominem attacks is why I’m against them.

Yeah airports are a hotbed of viruses. Theres a couple nasal sprays that work as a prophylactic and I never go anywhere without them. Apparently carrageenan sprayed in your nose works exceptionally well.

⚡️🎙️ NEW - Joe Rogan & Bryan Callen get into a HEATED debate over autism, vaccines & mandates

This is the graph Joe is referencing if anyone is interested.
According to the data cited from the book, “Moth and the Iron Lung”Vaccines were not the cause of the decline in cases at all.
Its a fascinating read. Weinstein actually talked with Rogan about it on his pod last year.

Sounds like a reasonable opinion to me. If there’s even a tiny risk, we should take it seriously.
—This feels like more than a tiny risk.
In my experience, Inconsistent arguments that don’t make any sense means that the true motives are being withheld. Core devs are obfuscating their motives and it’s terrifying that so many people aren’t more concerned about it.
🧡👊🏻🍻
100% bro. I always had that position about inscription bs. I just ignored it.
When nostr:nprofile1qqs8fl79rnpsz5x00xmvkvtd8g2u7ve2k2dr3lkfadyy4v24r4k3s4spz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsz8nhwden5te0dehhxarj94c82c3wwajkcmr0wfjx2u3wdejhgtcysa20h pointed out that core devs had blocked him for questioning op_return, I immediately started paying attention. I listened to hours of online debate and I’m sorry but the core devs argument is questionable at best.
The blocksize wars were much worse than this. (Ultimately led to a permanent chain split)
This knots/core debate is perceived to be much less of threat but there are many things that look REALLY REALLY fucking suspicious about core devs rn. (Talking about you @lopp, & Shinobi)
Shit doesn’t make sense. Their arguments are consistently flawed and sound manipulative. These are devs Ive followed and trusted forever.
—Freaks me the fuck out man.
Yeah, ive lost friends and followers over this.

Not really. I mean, he did make that post
-but if that’s not what it means then I don’t know either.

Yeah. There’s a lot of negative sentiment being pushed on zero actual news.
This is what WallStreet does.
I believe most of these btc treasurie companies will not work out long term.
I believe that 2-3 of them will grow astronomically if BTC does what I think it will.
I also believe that more than a few of them will wreck people after Wallstreet pumps them higher.
Imagine the energy used to start swinging. This is what they do. Push then pull.
All the while, planning to rug the uninformed when they pile onto the bandwagon.
Well That’s the Wallstreet narrative atm. Will see.

Pretty much

There are many like it but,
This Bitcoin is mine.

Let them dig themselves deeper.
—This is a deeply unpopular opinion with the center and obviously the right.
The best way to not repeat the cycle (with the left regaining power) is to let them dig here in this ridiculous position.
He sounds like someone that is paid to have a specific opinion.

It’s a imperfect analogy but men and women have had traditional gender rolls since before time. Know why?
It works.
I dont agree its about control. Its just a traditional role that men thrive in.
Just my 2s

Nostr is different.
I don’t think nostr will ever be huge like X.
I also don’t consider that a “fail”
The signal here is strong… even if its a bit focused on bitcoin.
