That's one interpretation, but in reality, it is, in fact, "Intelligence from a central origin". I may not know Japanese that much, but even the CIA tracks it very well. It doesn't mean we can circumvent that nonsense though.

I guess Keychron made that little wristrest, which I thought was included with the keyboard.

Weird looking split keyboard by Keychron, but looks pretty nice nonetheless.

Good morning,

The reason why I don't tend to be BTC only as much as I probably was back then was because I happened to advocate for the use of "poopcoins" like Monero, and anything else privacy respecting (Epic Cash, Pirate Chain, etc.). Granted, I want to run CISN through cryptocurrency only (to avoid the CBDC), and nothing will stop me from that. Eventually, though, I will have this information available so anyone could support us soon... not right now, though.

14 things I see on here. However, 39 was temprary, and 50 is what I'm currently doing now (soon, I hope).

Just use Firefox-based browsers, and switch user agents if necessary (if this were me). Oh wait, I already do just that.

There's a reason I'm part of the Cult of Vim (as they call it) and not the Church of Emacs (though I had dabbled into Emacs before through Doom Emacs).

I think their technology is used in quite political blood libel from what I've read. That's why their stock had tanked.

Good afternoon,

I want your opinion on what GNU/Linux operating system I should be taking a look at next after I'm done with my current modded Minecraft LP series. Here's a list of ones I already took a look at on a VM:

Debian Bookworm

Puppy (BookwormPup)

MX Linux

KDE Neon 5.27

OpenSUSE Tumbleweed

Sparky

Pop_OS!

Antix

Alpine

If you'd like, I'd also want to know an X11 DE (like Cinnamon) or WM (like i3) I should try. Here's a list of those I used on a VM or bare metal:

i3wm

Xmonad

Awesome

Cinnamon

JWM

IceWM

Plasma 5

GNOME

XFCE

LXQt

As far as I'm aware, as a Zoomer (Gen Z), it is one of those things.

No kidding. It's way more affordable to build your own. Good thing I did that in 2020.

Replying to Avatar Lyn Alden

Most people who I know that think the CIA invented bitcoin, are not very familiar with the pre-history of Bitcoin including work by Back, Szabo, Finney, etc.

I'm not saying that certainly no intelligence agency created Bitcoin, but rather, I'm very skeptical of the certainty that many people have around that topic.

Because, when you are somewhat familiar with that pre-history and look at it from an engineering perspective, you can clearly see the pieces gradually falling into place. In the1980s there was work by Chaum about how to build a database run by mutually suspicious entities. In the 1990s there was work by Back for proof-of-work. As things moved into the 2000s, there was Szabo's Bit Gold, which is very similar to what Bitcoin ended up being, and Finney's Reusable Proof of Work "RPOW" tokens. Finney hadn't solved the centralization issue, and Szabo hadn't solved the issue of better computation causing supply inflation over time, but they were collectively within shooting range of the solution. Others as well. Meanwhile global bandwidth was getting better, encryption in general was getting better (and there we've got an actual intelligence agency contribution), etc.

And then Satoshi added to that work, including the difficulty adjustment in particular and many other details, with a full implementation.

Basically, if someone thinks that Bitcoin just kind of magically came out of nowhere, then it's pretty easy to see how they'd be inclined toward a conspiratorial assumption.

However, if one sees that, just like any other industry, there was a series of engineers building on each others' work until someone finally got it over the line, then it looks a lot more organic.

The name "Satoshi Nakamoto" means in Japanese, paraphrased, "Innovation from a central point of origin". That's where people, I think, get the CIA accusation from. Have you heard of that meaning, Lyn?

I would rather build my own than get a pre-built with a dubious subscription contract. Forget that!

I'm primarily a Monero guy anyway. Nostr is full of BTC maxis... and that's just not needed, honestly.
