This is the core attitude of every Bitcoin maximalist, they’re so wrapped up in their own ethos that all criticism must come from the others in the Bitcoin camp (bch, Btsv, btwhatever). They literally can’t imagine a world where actual cr

Misleading garbage narrative from 2016. The last elections were a landslide for a reason: the voters wanted Brexit. You can disagree all you like, but they want it.

This is especially true for portrait mode monitors. Ever since Catalina portrait mode/90 dev rotation screens reset to landscape every time you unlock the machine. I do it 5-6 times a day and have the mouse/key presses memorized.

I’m anti-xrp but the smugness in your post is insufferable. Segwit has failed to reach even 50% adoption after all these years, future protocol upgrades are a decade away, and the lightning network is a centralized mess. Small blockers hija

On some level it makes sense: -if we succeed massively, you should get an outsized portion of those winnings because of your immediately obvious hard work in the now that paid off later. If not, then it literally doesn’t matter.

If people are too stupid to reject false information that wasn’t curated for them why are they smart enough to vote. Any argument advocating censorship is ultimately arguing for dictatorship.

This won’t get positive traction here but whatever: I was in an elevator in Austin a few years ago for a conference. Older guy, mid 50’s maybe, gets on and says “oh are you a googler?” Me: “Are you? Him: “Yeah I’m in XXXX group” Me: “That’s

This plays exactly into their narrative. "If they didn't steal it, they wouldn't have to work so hard to cover it up!" Megacorps should never become arbiters of truth.

I currently use multiple monitors, and apparently nobody at Apple HQ uses a monitor in portrait mode. Catalina routinely forgets the monitor is portrait and requires manually changing it back _every time the machine is locked_. Why is this

People need to accept that the problem is the language. We will never solve the developer problem, but we will/can/have produced languages that make these types of errors impossible/extremely unlikely.

Yep. Gun control legislation has deeply racist roots and the left hates talking about it.
