I’m also basically an anarchist. I think there’s a massive difference between forcing people at gunpoint to do a certain thing and encouraging people to follow a good path.
You probably wouldn’t want someone you care about to get addicted to crack. But you wouldn’t kill them if they refused to quit. Nahmean?
Because it doesn’t point to a “good” outcome. It just boosts self-esteem.
Sure you might encourage someone to do something they wouldn’t. But you have no modality to indicate that the new action would be “good” regardless of how you define “good”.
Culture-based behavioral regulation is a reliable way to ensure homogeneity of a unified set of cultural values, which we could reasonably call “the collective good”.
Would you tell Hitler/Stalin/Mao to “just be yourself?” Of course not! You’d be encouraging evil. They didn’t need encouragement because they were malevolent narcissists. But that begs the question, how did they become narcissists? I’d posit it’s, at least in part because someone, at some point encouraged them to “just be themselves”. And look how that bloody went!
Today at 8:30 central should be the unofficial results
The mission keeps me here. The lack of polish keeps me from getting addicted.
Sometimes pictures are blurred, I tap and they still don’t load!
Sometimes I tap a reply and I can’t see the original post for 30 seconds.
Yeah, this is an update
Yes, DNMs adding Monero but not removing Bitcoin.
I think that momentum speaks more to Monero being better than ZCash and MimbleWimble
That said, I’ve seen ransomware discounts as high as 10% for paying in Monero over Bitcoin. That’s not nothing.
Always a Bitcoin maxi BUT I dipped my toe into Monero not long ago. Lots of FUD surrounding Monero, esp around mining, decentralization, supply audits, etc.
What ultimately turned me off of it was liquidity. Even DNMs are far more likely to accept Bitcoin than Monero. It’s much easier to pay with Bitcoin or turn Bitcoin into USD. Most of the KYC-free buying of Monero involves buying Bitcoin first.
Also pseudonymous, unconfiscatable, and uncensorable are 99.9% as good as true anonymity.
ime the Japanese brands are purists and mostly make 100% cotton jeans with no stretch
Oni, Momotaro, and Pure Blue Japan are great brands. Not stretchy tho.
I also got big thighs.
If you’re looking for high-end, origin.
Cheaper? Gap jeans (not super stretchy) or Lee
What’s the easy/good way to get fiat into robosats?
When I tried KYC-free I was making bank transfers and that seems to defeat the purpose to me.
Fortress now too? I’m fuckin done with Swan!
Where to boss? Strike?
Liquid is a transparent and federated sidechain. Adam Back cannot singlehandedly rugpull Liquid on a whim.
There are risk-reward tradeoffs with using Liquid. They’re completely transparent so I analyzed them and chose not to use Liquid.
Are all Bitcoin-related companies opportunistic? If yes, then agree to disagree. If no, then I’m curious what the difference is to you.
15 years after being cited in the Bitcoin whitepaper, you call Adam Back a “Bitcoin opportunist”
LMAO
The competition is not driving. The competition is a public bus and Uber/Lyft
Also, traffic
Have you tried Monkey 47? Empress? Gin mare (excellent with a basil leaf)
They’re very excited about your recommendation.
A friend of mine loves this gin. Their favorite in Monkey 47. What’s yours?
Less than 0.1%. Most Bitcoiners don’t understand it
