I just tried it. I'm not receiving the verification code emails from github.
TFTC, tales from the crypt podcast with Marty Bent and James O'Beirne : #620: A New Lens On The OP_RETURN Debate with James O'Beirne.
James was explaning CTV and covenants.
It's fascinating to me : not one example of potential uses he mentioned seemed remotely interesting in terms of justifying a CTV or covenant soft fork.
I'm absolutely not interested. Fascinating. I was trying to keep an open mind. I certainly don't want a soft fork for any of the reasons he was mentioning. I understand why Bitcoin Core hasn't been interested in moving forward with any of this.
And those vaults? All I see is the risk of making it easier for the government to mandate some kind of vault (with spending conditions). Nope. Not interested.

From the stats I've seen, Portugal has the highest percentage of covid death jab uptake (for Europe). Slovakia, one of the lowest. I might have to learn slovakian at some point.
Do you know what open source tools could replace that?
I already thought it was bad, but apparently it was much worse than I thought... :
I've been hearing about methylene blue lately. Also I remember that as a kid, my parents would shoot some up my throat when I had a cold.
Can you share some sources of information that you trust on that topic?
Plus, the other party probably has your name (depending on the payment method), and you don't know who that other party is. Could be *anybody*.
With Bisq, all the transactions are public, It should be trivial for a bank to triangulate the payment info they have with the timing and amounts of the transactions.
It is better than a KYC exchange, but not by much in my book.
Cash is your friend.
But don't discount the use of lightning.
It's mutilation. That's a pretty big argument against it.
It probably made sense thousands of years ago in the desert, without water to wash it. Having been at the beach, I can attest that sand can get in there. I could imagine that being uncomfortable in the desert.
Most people don't live in the desert. In most countries, you have water...
I see most of those rules from the Old Testament as hygiene rules that made sense way back when. For example, pork needs to be heated to a certain degree to kill some parasites. If you don't know that or can't cook it properly, I could see someone saying "let's just drop pork". But we know better now, so we can enjoy bacon. I don't think an old man in the sky will be pissed off that I had bacon.
I think it's all humans trying to make it as best as they could under their own circumstances at the time. The problem is when people take that out of context and still do it, when none of the original reasons apply.
No need to disclose amounts. If people who donate to OpenSats don't trust opensats, they don't have to donate through it. They can donate directly. Dev privacy is important.
I'm still bitter that I was promised an open-sourced Keet by the end of 2022 and haven't gotten it yet. But this is good news for decentralized mining :
https://www.theminermag.com/news/2025-04-14/tether-ocean-pool-bitcoin
"[...] Tether will begin routing both its current and future Bitcoin mining hashrate to OCEAN, the decentralized mining pool launched by Bitcoin Core developer Luke Dashjr. [...]
OCEAN Pool, launched in late 2023, positions itself as an alternative to traditional mining pools by enabling miners to construct their own block templates via its DATUM protocol. This design is intended to improve censorship resistance on the Bitcoin network."

If you're interested in learning more about vaccines, I would suggest this episode from the Joe Rogan podcast with Dr. Suzanne Humphries :
https://podnews.net/podcast/i7htv
2294 - Dr. Suzanne Humphries
Dr Humphries is a conventionally educated medical doctor who was a participant in conventional hospital systems from 1989 until 2011 as an internist and nephrologist. She left her conventional hospital position in good standing, of her own volition in 2011. Since then, she’s been furthering her research into the medical literature on vaccines, immunity, history, and functional medicine. She is the author of "Dissolving Illusions: Disease, Vaccines, and the Forgotten History."
Resist as much as possible.
And if you can drive rather than fly, that's even better.
I'm hoping to delay flying until I can afford to fly private. The way people are treated in airports and on commercial airplanes is unacceptable to me.
