The term "detainees" needs unpacking somewhat. Canada's system is equally evil in its own way, depending as it does on brainwashing and social engineering. It's only a matter of time before physician assisted suicide becomes the treatment of choice for many cases, and eventually the only available option.

Meanwhile, let's not kid ourselves the rest of the world isn't doing it as well. The UK kills many patients by stealth and a fatalistic approach to care, blaming assumed terminality of the patient for its own institutional ineptitude.

Britain's most prolific serial killer was a doctor with a god complex, administering painkillers to the elderly. But the Gosport Inquiry suggests Harold Shipman was part time, tip of the icerberg: and a doctor or doctors at Gosport Hospital levered the institutional resources to scale up Shipman's ideas to an industrial scale.

Lastly, let's not forget the biggest myth about organ transplantation - that the patient must be dead. Au contraire - the patient must still be alive. As soon as the heart stops beating the organs are useless.

They already fixed Twitter. Next..

Great! Only bit I disagree with, changing the system might not require a majority of users to agree. I run a node but honestly if an update arrives I have little choice but to apply it, and I don't have the expertise to know better. There are only six core developers and if they can all agree then a change can occur. That's the only vulnerability I know about, but what it means exactly I'm not sure.

Ok it reminds me of an undergrad programming assignment I once did. My programme worked really well with no bugs despite being completely haphazard in my approach and getting an F. The lecturer's "ideal" example was a neat and perfectly verified modular solution. The only trouble is, while on paper it ought to have worked, when you tried to run it, it didn't. Apparently it was about the working not the result... Yeah right.

I wouldn't mess with anybody I thought might be capable of shooting their partner through the bathroom door.

Pineapple is in fact allowed.

Reminds me I need to pay some taxes to paedos :-(

Can you actually zap 40,000 btc?

@Gmoney take note while looking down your nose LoL

LMAO

Oh dear, "when in a hole stop digging" is a good maxim

Border wallet better. No need to hide it anywhere since only you can decipher it, safe to email to yourself or print loads of copies to squirrel away, so no danger of loss in fire etc. Makes metal plates obsolete.

Or print out the entire pool of seed words and throw darts at it.

What's PSBT? I have a seedsigner and I figure the way to store keys is on paper or in the head. For those who want the dependability of paper and the secrecy of head, a border wallet seems like a brilliant solution. I think I'll be ditching my ledger as soon as I've got all the loose ends worked out.

You would think!!! The thing is that NO TRUST security is Ledgers' stock in trade.

The problem is, if their device works as it should, then their business model will run out of steam. Looks like their investors wanted development to keep on rolling.

Thanks for the explanation. Clearly internet privacy is becoming a fundamental life skill like looking both ways when you cross the road. And a lot of millennials can't even do that.

A company selling hardware wallets of the same name that ought to be in the business of educating its customers in no-trust secrecy and privacy. After all it's their stock in trade no less.

Ooooh...

Laugh now by all means, just remember where you heard it first ok ;-)

Or the 700s, on whose version of history you believe. And 3D printing/machine etching as well. Nothing we know about history pre ~1860 can be relied upon. This is probably not the first great reset humanity has faced.
