All the "easy"self-chstody lightning wallets seem to just use some "don't make me think" slight-of-hand that is ultimately belied as a really crap tradeoff. Phoenix: Outrageous fees. Quickly looks like shit when you try to onboard someone with $10 and they receive $8.50.Even once they have a channel, the routing fees are like 10x what they should be. Don't demo this to vendors looking to escape credit card fees. Aqua: Your "lightning" payment gets trapped in some limbo, where you can't tell if it failed, if it's multi-pathing, or whatever the fuck they are doing behind the curtain. Don't demo this to people who want instant settlement. Wallet of Satoshi/Breez/Blitz: Last mile of the payment is paved with surveilance. Don't use this if you wa to demonstrate censorship resistance.

I don't know what a blossom server is, and at this point, I'm afraid to ask.

"In May 2025, the company announced that rogue customer support agents had given access to hackers who demanded a $20 million ransom to not publish information stolen from a compromised database. Coinbase later specified that the incident had affected about 69,500 customers, exposing their names, dates of birth, the last four digits of their Social Security numbers (SSNs), physical addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses."

Two things happen when the ideological weapons factories have completely used up a term like "white surpemacy" to the point it has no meaning beyond "something I dont like." 1) People stop taking them seriously 2) People become numb to actual white supremacy View quoted note →

If the information is unverifiable and on a screen, the best frame is to assume it's a lie.

Back in the GFC, silver did a crazy price run up, and then ate shit for 14 years.

These are words. And after consuming the words, you may feel as if you did something, but nothing has actually materially changed about your life. In fact, your life might actually be worse for having wasted time on words that are likely wrong. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk about podcasts.

Follow lists on Amethyst is an awesome feature. I dont know how long these have been in the app, but if you aren't using them, give it a try.

OMG this would be a hilarious Shakespeare-generated cookie-clicker-style game. You deliver a consistent stream of cars yelling "retard" to Tim Walz's house. The game escalates by putting up police road blocks, snipers, and armored vehicles, so you have to spend the accumulated Tim Trauma points on more and more drastic counter-counter measures.

I would honestly pay for a service that delivers one good belting of "retard" to Tim Walz. Hook it up to zaps.

Good satire. Personally, I dont trust anyone that, unsolicited, profers the opinion that they are a good person. I never even encountered such a sussy self-assessment outside of toxic thought circles until woke culture escaped the ideological weapons lab of the modern academy. View quoted note →
