If I could pay with Monero I’d get an account. I like what I see but don’t like the possibility of my ID being tied to my searches.

Thomas Paine published common sense anonymously. I think there needs to be a way to publish anonymously where the people are.

As the sibling comment pointed out, it is SO much easier than it was. I hopped back into it about 3y ago. I’ve got a NAS running on my local network with sonarr to snatch new tv shows and radarr for new movies. In practice, if I decide I wa

I've started torrenting again (did it a lot in the early 00s, but stopped like most others as streaming showed up in a big way). Honestly, once set up the experience is lovely. - The catalog is enormous, you can almost always find what

To any authors reading this: It would be cool if you would set up abilities to "donate" or direct pay you. I love getting ebooks but often its really difficult to find a drm-free version (sometimes I can get one on the publishers

Yes. This is yet another reason I think Monero will become an actually usable currency

Yeah, I spent about $60 worth and the transaction fee was $0.0000113. That, combined with the privacy makes it seem really usable. I’d love a way to make cheap, private, digital payments

My story is not as extreme, but similar. There past that made me comment is the wife and kids comment. I feel that too. Knowing just how bad things can get, especially when you have kids, motivates you to maintain a large cushion in a way f

Im bullish on Monero becoming a winner in the space. It’s private and transaction fees are pennies. Mentioned elsewhere in the thread was a larger problem: the amount of time it takes to settle up. I’m very curious how this will be addresse

I’m torn on this. On one hand I see the value in helping people who are sick, which is clearly a good. On the other hand I’ve seen how casually antidepressants can be consumed and seen them offered in social contexts and can’t help but susp

I didn’t know about this and I love it. I’d been torrenting classic books and always felt a bit silly about it since they are long since out of copyright. These look beautiful. Great work.
