 I've noticed that #Garnet displays data of who sends tips through the app in #monero and how much. I would rather that information be private, similar to zapping people totally anonymously. I'm sure the issue could be remedied but it's surprising to me that this information is trackable in app regardless. I think it better to run normal amethyst and simply add an #xmr subaddress to the bio section so as to remove the garnet built in primary wallet visible to all using garnet. Seems like user friendliness comes at the cost of reduced privacy. Maybe I'm being over paranoid.

 I created a python script that will generate a vanity onion address for my dark web site. Still don't know what I'm going to do with it, but it's cool nonetheless. I'm not about to start selling shady stuff but a resume or blog site is too boring 🤣

If the dark web wasn't used mostly for morally reprehensible lusts and desires, we wouldn't have to try and convince people of the importance of online anonymity.  Seriously, other than whistleblower protection, what has been a good use of the dark web? 
 Honestly didn't expect to be convinced of Monero...crap. The goblins got to me.  
 Most of the cultishness has well articulated reasoning in my experience and most would acknowledge the privacy difficiency but would argue that one can get that level privacy with lightning, ecash, or fediments. Others are just ignorant of a world outside of satoshi. This guys entire line of reasoning is "My master doesn't feed me in anything else thus everything else is irrelevant universally". We don't ask him for advice cause hes a walking logical console error, we just like his memes.

Pre coffee morning thoughts...

The gender distinction in competitions helps women, not men. It's like both are competing for the block reward but men are running ASICs while women are running laptop CPUs. The only way they will be able to successfully compete is by mining on a sidechain (ie womens only competition). Maybe the problem is that women grow up with heroes like Mia Hamm that tell them that they need to compete with men to be valuable. It's silly to think that little girls want to grow up to be powerful, competitive little muscle freaks. Maybe we need better and more thoughtful  feminine heroes and examples. 

 
 Please tell me this is real 🤣 
 Sport categories should never be gender-based (men's and women's). It should be body-structure-ba...

Spent a good deal on this mountain vacation, but the mountain air is worth it. Right off the Blue Ridge Parkway and the kids have been entertained all morning in the basement leaving us to our simple silence.

 I've discovered that people who explore higher education tend to narrow their worldview significantly to what they've been brainwashed to believe. The vast majority of scientific discovery and invention have come from self educated individuals rather than people who memorize the words of those that came before them. At a certain point, usually on path to masters or doctorate, these individuals have developed such an identity toward this line of thinking that to claim it is wrong or that there are other options would attack their very being.

 Liquid is not L2 it's a federated sidechain which means the funds are on blockstream custody. 
no... 
 Hold up, you're not being 100% genuinely honest here. Why not mention the federated system and how blockstream can't rug you acting by themselves? Where it just takes 1 organization to rug the custodial lightning account you sport on your page, it would take a massive amount of public companies to collude to steal from you on the liquid network.

 Something I don't need to worry about with bitcoin and its layer 2 solutions. If anything, this recent goblin tunnel marketing warfare has strengthened my resolve to my commitments. 
https://m.primal.net/JhXh.jpg  
 The pruneable blockchain aspect would be of interest if it solved the problem. I think the biggest problem we see from the maxi side is the future bloat of a scaled out monero blockchain and the storage resources it would require since everything is done on the base layer in monero. Full node I operation, if monero succeeds and scales, is going to be a resource intensive as eth. This is why I personally opted for liquid. Hidden tramsaction assets and amounts, leaves layer 1 alone. 
 I have $10 in Monero I would love to get rid of. Anyone open to trade for lightning or liquid? Private DM me. 
 Probably, but i didn't know those existed as iam not familiar with the monero ecosystem nor am i willing to engage in it at this time.

 I was surprised by all the statists cheering when he said he'd keep all the #bitcoin jobs in America. Y'all realize you're applauding and supporting a universal KYC? You guys realize that the power your guy takes and uses for what you see as good today will not be relinquished by the bad guy that takes power after him? THAT is why we scream freedom. THAT's why we say bare minimum or no government.

 The way ya'll throw off your defenses as soon as a political candidate starts talking your language is like watching a girl return to an abusive relationship she justifies with, "It's different this time." You keep getting fooled because you keep putting your faith in people who are serial sweet talkers without the heart or commitment to follow through for you. You're coded desire nothing more than to put your trust easily into something or someone, and because of it, you'll always be ruled over. One day you'll wake up, and look back at all the times you were deceived, but by then it will be too late.

 Tell us how to sell 700k worth of BTC without Kyc? 
 Slowly, piece by piece. Don't blame bitcoin because of poor personal financial planning.   Here is my question: Why wasn't the pre work done? Why don't you have a list of people you can contact to buy and sell Bitcoin in a jam? Why are you trusting bitcoin to solve a problem it doesn't try to solve?
