You literally don't know what you're talking about. Anarchy is the status quo. The governments are just the biggest warlords that masquerade as human rights organizations.
To people who play videogames the next patch or update matters. To adults, they never matter.
It's a false dichotomy because there are more than two choices. You are just too blind to see.
False dichotomy. You can not vote for a ruler, and own your own bitcoin. This political larping is childish.
The "centralization" versus "Decentralization" dichotomy is permission versus permissionless. Do you need permission to join? No? Then it's decentralized no matter how many participants are involved. If you must be admitted to the system from an authority it is centralized. This is the only distinction that matters.
This is high trust society behavior. The assumption is that no person of moral character would ever take advantage of a system of charity. Look around you, do you see people of similar moral character in your town? Then, this would work. If not, you are actually creating a perverse incentive. Charity, morality, and kindness is for your friends. Never give these things to your enemies. They will destroy you with your own helping hand.
Okay, my point still stands. Do you see ads for private arbitration or enforcement outside of state control? No. My point isn't, give up it's hopeless. My point is, for your own safety don't advertise you are competing with the state on force, and justice. They will kill you or at the very least force you to stop.
Contracts are STATE enforced so is arbitration. Just read what I actually said and don't infer my point when I state it clearly. I know things can work without the state, I'm an anarchist.
Alternative justice models are not things you can announce. You just do them in secret. It's one thing to open a shop next to Walmart. It's another thing entirely to tell them you are competing directly with them.
But it isn't completely anonymous... If my grandmother had wheels she would be a bike. Again, I don't understand the aversion beside standing athwart the hill of payment schemes yelling "Stop giving money to each I other all willy-nilly!"
Saying it has no incentives then listing incentives is definitely a new way to make a point.
The thing is, I don't understand if V4V is such a bad idea, doesn't work, and will collapse, why does everyone spend so much time talking about how it won't work as a payment model? Surely you would just not bother because the people implementing it would just not do it anymore.
The thing about decentralized systems is the modularity with which they are build allow for different models to be tested. The reason why paywalls and V4V are clashing is that one hurts the other and people advocating for either are just partisans. If there's a paywall, V4V gives away content for an ostensibly cheaper price. If there's a V4V model pay walls give people FOMO and draw from charitable payments. You are participating in a culture war.
Yes, it is a PC/Miner combo unit. (At least the Apollo 1 I have is) This unit is beefier from a mining perspective, not sure about the PC part.
Is it switching to I2P instead of clearnet or TOR? Because if it's another OP codes discussion about making things easier for devs, we've had enough of that conversation already.
If the consequence was life or death…
YOU die if your conversation is exposed at all…
And you MUST send an online message…what are you using? I am being sincere….

Sorry Fed, I am not telling you how I send private messages to people. Nice try.
Yeah, if it's a single sig it's one point of failure. Multisig with borderwallet or paper analogue back ups is my advocacy. But, in this particular case smaller tramsaction size and open scource vetting or compliling the code yourself is really your only option. Brutal cautionary tale.
Mix Border wallet, with NFC tag, with hardware wallet, with a paper wallet, to get your multi sig. Everyone seems to be of the opinion that tech breaks or becomes obsolete. But no one seems to think that having analogue backups can be a part of your main security model. Very odd, imo.
This kind of report is invaluable for those not sure if they are doing enough for themselves and their family. Specifically what needs more than a cursory supply or redundancy.
