Yeah... Not gonna vote for the old orange potato just because he promises to support BTC. There are more important things at stake here.
Besides his promises are not worth much. It's not like he is going to end the FED. He drinks and loves that sweet nectar! He just wants his friends to be closer and have more control over the faucet.
Seems like it affected several versions of the sensor (see the link I posted). There was no software update involved. It was in the channel file updates. I also don't admin Crowdstrike myself, so I don't know if that could have been prevented.
Crimea is actually not an island, but a peninsula connected to the country it legally belongs to (as recognized by most of the international community, including China).
Economically, Great Britain is orders of magnitude larger, and an independent country, not belonging to France or Ireland.
France did not invade it previously without provocation. Plenty of gaps in your parallelism.
Russia knows better than to directly attack a core infrastructure of the west.
Just get rid of them, have enough books around.
It'll be painful at the beginning, as with quitting any addiction, but then the improvement will be clear.
(casual onlooker here)
So the difference with custodial lightning is that the custodian (mint in eCash) is blind to the amounts in the database? As long as payments are done within the same wallet/mint, there is no need to hit L2?
I guess fedimints add a layer of consensus on top of it so that holders of eCash don't need to trust a single party?
43 MARS is way beyond MOON!!

The ETF could have existed 10 years ago. Yet Bitcoin did fine without it. One could argue that probably it has been good that it wasn't approved so early. I am still wary this time...

Wow Spirit, that's some deep thoughts there... I think I understand you and it's a refreshing view. I tend to be more nihilist than that, so I love this 😉

Interesting comment by Peter Todd when discussing the possible use of nostr as a new protocol for the bitcoin-dev mailing list. His comments are not particular to that usage though:
"
Strong NACK on nostr. It's a badly designed, centralized, protocol that needs a
significant redesign to be usable. While off topic for this mailing list, some
of its many issues include:
* Reliance on single-key, cryptography that often results in people having
their keys compromised. This is a serious problem in the context of
bitcoin-dev, where faked messages published could easily have market-moving
results.
* Inability to mirror relays: since nostr deliberately ignores the lessons of
blockchains, there is no way to be sure that you have a complete set of
messages from a given person, for a given topic, etc.
* Highly centralized design: since mirroring relays isn't reliable, in reality
nostr operates in a highly centralized fashion, dependent on a tiny number of
relays that can't be easily replaced if taken down.

He was replying to this proposal by @Ademan (I believe).

I like that it sparked some interesting discussions 😃
My opinion is that mailing lists UX is better simply due to the decades of e-mail development and its ubiquity. For that UC probably nostr is not the best fit. Even though it would certainly be capable.
But just because something is possible doesn't mean it needs to be done.
Is anyone working on this?

I guess... but the border is still not functioning correctly. Can they keep at it for as long as the rubles flow (as long as they don't show pro-Putin signs)?
