2 hours into syncing a full Bitcoin node with Mr. Overkill, I think I’ll submit a pull request to Bitcoin Core:
The max amount of RAM you can allocate to the database cache is 9999 MB… and I have almost 5x more that I can use 😂
Mr. Overkill problems 💪🏻 
2 hours later, Mr. Overkill is in August 2017 – with an approximate ETA of 7 hours.
Up to this point, Core was in default mode (db cache of 450 MiB, 0 script verification threads).
Now I’ll boost the db cache to 9999 MiB + I’ll give it 12 script verification threads 💪🏻 
After 1 hour of syncing, Mr. Overkill has entered the year 2016.
I can almost hear Mike Hearn ragequitting!
But I must confess that I’ve made a stupid mistake and didn’t set power options correctly: Mr. Overkill went to sleep for about 10 minutes while I was in another room 😅 
About 30 minutes in, Mr. Overkill has entered Bitcoin’s 6th year of existence!
However, since November 2013 the ETA has increased to 10 hours! 
Meet Mr. Overkill:
Featuring the Apple M3 Max processor with 92 billion transistors and 16 cores.
48 GB of LPDDR5X memory.
1 TB PCIe 4.0 hard drive that can write 7.4 GB/s.
142.57 Mbps internet.
But how fast can it sync a full Bitcoin node? Let’s find out!
Starting time: 6:40 PM (Romania time)

Saying “just use Lightning” in a high fee environment is the Bitcoin equivalent of “let them eat cake”.
Stop scrolling and watch this… for a better life!
Live premiere of nostr:npub12qz56plzehejkyp4waaannmnny4y4c30j8q55a3wlk49haslga2snypdx8's "buy Bitcoin" song at nostr:npub1rjtrs7xqdvj3588r9njrexh2n750j7jdwx9qs543nutmdsj6ljaqpfmp8a :-)
Thank you for posting this! ❤️
Gm, our song “Buy Bitcoin!” premieres in 3 hours on the Community Stage of nostr:npub1rjtrs7xqdvj3588r9njrexh2n750j7jdwx9qs543nutmdsj6ljaqpfmp8a (upstairs from the bar in the main lobby) as well as on YouTube!
It’s Bitcoin’s version of “Hey Jude”: a catchy earworm which sends a positive message that makes you sing along!
Replace "ossification" with "bonerfication"
If we call it a boner, more people will realize how stupid it is
Can we call this BIP 6969?
Some people are finally realizing that Michael Saylor is not their friend.
Others are so immersed in the cult that they make excuses which imply that Bitcoin developers are so stupid they wouldn't quit their job if their sponsor becomes evil...
Because devs should be monks who work for free or else go to the same handful of companies to get a steady pay, right?
Will interview Deadalnix in about 8 hours.
In 2017, he was the dev who forked Bitcoin to create BCH.
A year later, as maintainer of Bitcoin ABC, he was one of the first devs to find out about the inflation bug in Bitcoin.
Why didn’t he exploit it? Listen to the show & learn! 
Study history from both points of view.
Just bought both The Blocksize War and Roger Ver’s Hijacking Bitcoin.
Looking forward to reading them in a comparative way, to see how the same events are told.
(as opposed to using books as a Zoom background to appear smart)

Uncle Jim and Big Brother are not the same person.
Trust me, bro.
Don't burn bridges because of this. Sooner or later, he will wake up and realize he has learned about people from memes and predators willing to repeat the same lies they claim to keep away from the community with carefully placed toxicity.
On Thursday I'll be interviewing Deadalnix.
He is the dev who forked BCH, then left that community by forking off into Ecash.
Along the journey, he was one of the first people to know about the 2018 inflation bug in Bitcoin – he could have exploited it, but instead supported the Core team in fixing it.

Buzz off, spammer
This is my favorite part from the interview with Roger Ver 😱
It was in this exact moment that he became excited about Bitcoin again. You can see it in his eyes, you can hear it in his voice.
Truly a unique moment that I don't think you'll see in any other Bitcoin podcast.

If you think the Roger Ver interview was great, just wait until you discover the other episodes of Bitcoin Takeover podcast season 15 😱
These recordings will make you feel bullish about Bitcoin's future beyond ETFs, as they feature builders & visionaries who are willing to fight the seemingly-stagnant culture!
