Started a new reading project. Probably won't finish it in my lifetime, tho. 😆

I'm a college professor. This actually describes 99% of my colleagues.

New year, same me: staying humble and stacking sats.

Usenet, FidoNet, etc., were glorious before the normies showed up. You don't need a billion people to have a useful, fun discussion. 👍

And that's why my hashrate is pointed at smaller pools.

Cosigned: the cure to inscriptions is worse than the disease.

"Exposure" sounds a bit like getting flashed by a pervert, but riskier and less fun.

But I do want testnet and not signet, right? Main goal is to test out ansible config for running a node. Don't care as much about wallets.

Any pointers to tutorials on setting up a lightning node on testnet? Given how high fees are right now, I need to stop doing my experimenting on-chain. 😆

The very epitome of polishing a turd.

I remember those times, too. But that is much older than the median Bitcoiner, I'm afraid.

Just as I remember a time before spam, but that was before my students and many of my friends were born. Might as well be mythology, from their perspective, I imagine.

I'm as nostalgic as the next guy, but I do remember the blocksize wars…

IMHO, we're in the "trying to co-opt it" phase. We won't see the real attacks until that fails.

OMFG

Oh.

Sad. We were mutuals, but this is the last straw. He specifically says he's not interested in engaging on the issue, so…

You're gonna need to be more specific: there are a lot of fucktards on X.

GM. Nuts are plant eggs.

Sorry, Ledger. Maybe next year.
