On the strong gender divide on gun control: Why do we see this effect? I think there are multiple factors at play including that women are generally smaller, less muscular, and less aggressive than men. In the end, I think they are more likely to look to others to protect them, assuming that others can, and forgetting that ultimately this is not an outsourcable job.
Men frequently (though less frequently) think this too, but (some) peopleās cultural stories create a role for man as the protector, lowering the likelihood he will adopt the flawed belief: that someone else can provide bodily protection to you.
Such a cute family. And based on the littles I can tell you guys have seen and survived some crazy times. Inspirational!
šÆ but why does specialization require a law making group that is ready to enforce them?
You and three s9s? š
Thatās crazy
Thinking about this still. I believe you may be assuming that the concept of a state-created law and the concept of a group that has an approval-bestowing role must always come together.
The benefit of mixing them is that there is less work for the consumer. But that doesnāt mean that a solution where we have the latter without the former wouldnāt work out well for everyone. And the cost of course is a significant reduction in freedom.
To make that more concrete: I agree, the goal of having everyone read every line in a ToS will never happen because humans are.. too limited. But if people can find groups that do it for them that they deem to be aligned with them, and they see the groupās stamp of approval on the ToS, they can make a more than completely uninformed decision on whether to sign.
In 2011 i went to buy just one cat. When i got there I found these two together. They came from a litter that was dropped off, they never knew their mother. When i heard their story I couldnāt separate them so I adopted them both. Penny and Sheldon. They were inseparable, Sheldon was a goof, and she was the level headed one, always looking out for him.
One day I left the roof door open and Sheldon left, never to return. Penny was never the same after that. She became reclusive. I think Penny blamed Vanessa. She hisses whenever shes around. She hates the world. She hates the moveā¦ but the end of the day I think sheās just a softie who misses her brother š„²

š poor little kitties. Hopefully Sheldon is doing alright
1 hour: I better buy some BTC, but coins are so expensive
2 hours: i better buy some ETH to.. and also some HEX and XLM and ā¦.
100 hours: there is no second best
Small note, miners do not decide whether a transaction is legitimate, they can only decide whether a transaction is illegitimate. They do this by not including it. This is a somewhat weak mechanism, limited by the degree of decentralization of mining.
Conversely, if they try to decide that a transaction is legitimate (that doesnāt follow historical rules) then everyoneās nodes will ignore it. This ultimately falls back to a social layer, but there is a strong bias toward not changing anything since everyone needs to physically update their nodes to work with the now-forked chain.
Nice, scanned both of them for good measure
The app does have to be internet connected though, I donāt know exactly when the OS will wake it.
And are you just trying to post one to there? Or receive business payments? I donāt think Phoenix can do LNURL because itās only on when itās on
How many transactions have you done? Phoenix helps manage your channels, if you click the ā?ā does it explain what that fee is for / how much of it is just setting you up with a channel?

Lol. True. I guess with WLD you have a proof of personhood that goes stale.. well immediately. Any time youāre not physically looking into the orb to āsignā itās stale.
Proof of personhood is niceā¦ but thereās no way to make it decentralized :(
Can the phone always have Phoenix up? Or always when people are checking out?
Yesā¦ thought, as far as I know, it needs to be running in order to help coordinate receiving the funds. Itās an LN thing, which is why you see people outsourcing that job with custodial apps (as in wallet or satoshi, which has a nice point of sale feature).
You might just want to run your own BTCpay server, leaving aside iOS, to do jt
Have you looked at Phoenix?
