JUST IN: 🇺🇸 US inflation rises to 2.6%.

So what browser is everyone using this month?

I'm currently using Vivaldi because I think it has the best tab grouping functions of any browser out there. I've been kind of debating switching over to Floorp again for a little while because it's Firefox based and has work station like tab groupings. And I kind of refuse to use Brave. Are there any new browsers out there? Also kind of debating setting up on Googled Chromium again, but again that's kind of a setup process to get things just right.

Exactly! But she was weak on getting boys out of girls sports.

I know right! What is Trump waiting for? Also I’m not to crazy about Noem being Secretary of DHS

If the British landed on the moon first

1. Banks want to keep you using banks

2. Keeping Bitcoin blocks small, makes Layer 1 unusable as real world cash

3. Non-Custodial Layer 2 is complex, the average person won't do it or pay for it

4. Custodial Layer 2 is the new Banking

5. Fiat Banks and insurance companies funded Blockstream.

6. Bitcoin Core devs also worked for Blockstream, which sells layer 2 solutions. That's a conflict of interest, they are solving the problem they create with the "small block" routine.

7. By having Maxis do the shitcoin routine on good alternatives, it forces the unrealistic solution of self-host Layer-2 hot wallets with a 1k minimum to play... or use bank custodial accounts.

8. Keeping the blocks small does NOT decentralize it, as lightning routes only work with large players acting as facilitators. And you can't even receive lightning unless you've already got funded channels. This is literally inequality: You need money to get money.

Therefore,

Nobody uses Bitcoin in the Real World. And Banks win.

What part of this are you disputing?

The 88K gang is a blessing, because we get to post more Back to the Future memes and GIFs.

What is your first thought when you see this?

200 ml water

30 grams sugar

I’m going to add my vanilla extract of course

Bitcoin rises on Trump

Bitcoin fell on Samourai wallet devs being jailed

Bitcoin rose on BlackRock ETF

Bitcoin fell on SEC crackdowns

Monero remains the same

We all agree value is subjective, but be careful who is doing the deciding

I wonder, how many people say something like ‘the price means nothing to me’ yet still check the price a few times a day when it’s pumping?

Doesn’t matter anyways, I’m numb to the price
