Lol look at this dude thinking oligarchs didn’t exist before cryptocurrencies. It’s not any form of store of wealth that perpetuates the oligarchies, it’s unwillingness and corruptibility of political class that allows them to exist. Half o

Yes. It’s one of the main selling point of m1 - being faster than intel and colder than intel. M1 is just a continuation of their A line which exists for a decade, so it’s not like it was a stab in the dark.

I wonder how much of this and other thermal issues with MacBooks are just a marketing stunt to better sell m1 devices. Not that m1 needs that kind of marketing, Apple yet again set the standard for best laptop on the market, possibly for an

Twitter has announced support for lightning. Why would anyone use eth when streamable money in isolated payment channels on top of the most secure monetary network in the world exists, is beyond me.

dismissing the argument based on your feelings about the author is literally ad hominem.

What does the content on the rest of the site have to do with the link I posted? This is literally ad hominem - disregarding an argument because you dislike the author.

so why don't you? if you're unable to walk back the thread, i'll remind that you were the one who started straw-maning by assuming that i think chainsize alone is the problem with syncing a full node. stop making assumptions

one invokes straw-man and can't recognize when it's being pointed out by example of another, more ridiculous straw-man. sigh. just stop and think for a second. you don't need to go down this road. drop the initial straw-man a

sha256 is only 256 bits, so it's obviously easy to solve right? i suppose life is more satisfying on the surface, when you only need to argue against straw-men, but surely that's a ticking time bomb?

Not a full node, a fast-sync trusting third party node. I doubt anyone is able to sync a full node from genesis block anymore.
