I love Signal's multi-device and have been using it, but I wish you could have linked phones in addition to linked desktop clients. For example, you cannot have an Android as your primary and link an iPhone. There's no inherent re

Let's say I did a survey of images on the internet, using a crawler to look for and download each image. I make counts of how many of each file format I find, their sizes and color depths, and a hash to count dupes. I don't save o

The article suggests that the blackpower is used to make cartridge primers. I'm not sure if that is true or not.

I wish Signal would enable this.

Is it reasonable that some bureaucrats in the United States, or bureaucrats of any other government, have the right to not only surveil but also approve or deny the transfer of money between any two humans on planet Earth?

If you read the article it's right here: https://etherscan.io/address/0xf7790914Dc335B20Aa19D7c9C9171... Looks like they have minted 10M tokens. No transfers have occurred yet.

By this logic every isn't every kickstarter is also a security? Aren't tickets for concerts are securities too? Ethereum was like that. You give them bitcoins, and they promised to build this distributed computer that you can run

What would happen in the case of a general partnership where 5 people put some money together to buy a house for $1M: Partner 1: $500,000 Partner 2: $250,000 Partner 3: $249,000 Partner 4: $999 Partner 5: $1 They issued paper receipts repre

Society supports everyone in that way, so why should someone who is 100x more productive have to pay proportionally more than the average person? To put it another way, how does society provison more support for John Carmack than it does fo

Where is USD available in this format? If it is, that's news to me.

To me, "FedCoin" implies or suggests an electronic bearer instrument that is issued by the Federal Reserve. It wouldn't be mined, it would be minted and burned (aka created and destroyed). The USD is not currently offered in

The Fed will never release Fedcoin.

It would actually be better if FTX got turned back on, balances changed to whatever % can be made available and debt tokens issued for the rest. Aside from the fraud the FTX system was very good, it's a shame for it to be wasted.

How much stuff do you have? If you are thinking of using software to inventory then maybe you should just get rid of things. I use lots of stackable transparent plastic boxes. Group all the common fungible items together in their own boxes

Nobody involved with Ethereum is opposed to making money or building services that charge fees.

It's not our tools. It's our argument over our tools that is our religion. It's what keeps us moving forward to discover the one true way... that One True Way that of course we will never reach or agree on. Naturally we clan

Okay, I think I understand. What you're saying is that the rate of criminal activity related to this payment medium is sufficiently high that the cost of total surveillance of all financial transactions is justified. Where I take issue

This is an honest answer. Thanks for giving me the benefit of the doubt. I don't want to live in the same society as you, or be a part of one where people who share your opinion are the majority who get to make the rules.

Apologies for the late reply. You can't prove that in realtime without a trustee, which is just how things have been done forever. With all due respect, this is how it is in "advanced economies". Where are you personally from

Apologies for the late reply. Was someone making the assertion that money laundering using one medium is (generally) victimless while money laundering using a different medium is not? Can you explain or clarify for me why you believe that i

You make that comment sarcastically, but git has in fact made decentralized development easier, and is in fact used that way by some projects such as the Linux kernel. That many people choose to use it though centralized services such as Gi

> Money laundering is not victimless unless you can prove that none of the people using the service are using it to hide a crime with a victim. Is there a presumption of innocence or guilt? Which do you prefer?

That ship has sailed long ago. I don't know any place where car ownership is not a government registry, and that is surely because the theft of them was so common that something had to be done about it. Correct me if I'm wrong.
