the adoptionists are so boring.
they would sell your grandmother to get more DAU numbers, for what purpose, who knows. they are not up to step 2 in the underpants gnome story.
the people will use the tech when it's mature enough and has a value proposition they can understand. censorship is gonna be a big one. resilience in the event of cyberattack and network chaos.
not only that, adoptionists don't have the understanding that nostr is an event broadcast network, not just a social network. it could be used to propagate any kind of information, at all. i can see uses for logistics networks, for examples. inventory advertisments, out of stock notifications, available transport services, transport schedules, actual bus locations, all sorts of things like this could be carried on Nostr.
anyhow
money is useless in most disasters. worse, it's often something that will just be stolen from you, or you will lose anyway.
it could usable be if there was working internet. that often is the case. it's pretty hard to shut down all mobile towers in an area, even if you mean to. doesn't need to be starlink lol. hell, even cabled telephone systems are often running if anyone has an old laptop with a dialup modem inside it.
nobody is going to do anything with money in a war except steal it from you anyway.
physical stuff in hand, like food, water, a gun, a torch, of course these are more important. but if there was a use for money, it would be no different if it was bitcoin, with teh only difference of needing an internet connection to make a payment.
what is your point anyway? that it's useless in disaster? money is mostly useless in a disaster too.
people just make excuses to cover the fact that they haven't thought about it.
bitcoin is money. its utility is confined to the same circumstances as other kinds of money. war, natural disaster, pretty much useless.
so actually, that it's not usable in those kinds of circumstances literally, doesn't matter because it's not usable, practically.
Ai is great for putting your dreams into a picture.

so much glass, i hope it is subtropical, at least florida or socal.
yeah, there's a whole bunch of common typo/expressions these muricans use. they don't seem to understand the conjunction of have versus the preposition of. the pronoun their versus the preposition there. let me be = leave me alone. murican: let me alone.
btcd has one built in if you can navigate its bugs. mainly, just do all config in command line args. it's called 'generate'. it's not the most efficient implementation. for sure you could at least use the SIMD SHA256 implementation to get a quite a bit more hashes out of it.
yes, bitcoin is usable in any situation where you have at least - let's say EDGE or ADSL1 speed, comfortably.
EMPs are unlikely to disrupt more than one city at a time. carrington event can knock out much of the satellites and above ground copper and unshielded infra but underground, undersea, shielded, hard wired stuff probably stays up and within days many others resume using standby redundant systems.
it could happen that bitcoin was not usable for a few days to a week in a place in a really extreme situation (carrington event) but these are century or more between.
and it is ridiculous to say that any of this is a surprise, as well, unlike a natural disaster.
firefox?
yeah, them too.
people here are not the same kind of people there.
that's why we are here and not there.
i'm not sure whether there was a lot of big erasures, but i am betting there was some. even with the records we can get access to now it still looks a lot like the first millennium AD was better than this second one has been.
not sure how a tiny, cut down, dumbed down, presumptuous garbage java VM based ball of mud can be better than a computer. it's a little, crappy computer built by people who are provably working at a company that is a front for intelligence agencies... but ok.
ever heard the mud flood theory?
stop using it on mobile. coracle.social nostrudel.ninja iris.to snort.social and getalby.com for your zapping.
oh yeah, for mobile, plebstr is for sure better than amethyst. though someone said to me it was closed source.
my mobile is turned off and sitting under a metal container right now. i don't like mobiles, while they are all compromised with spy poop.
they only either let you use it, or not show you so much obvious advertising. they don't make any promises about not blocking others from seeing your content because reasons.
ah, that's nothing for a typical dirt bike, usually you can drop them in a dam and pull them out and be back up and running in minutes.
