An alternative full node bitcoin implementation written in Go (golang) - btcsuite/btcd

I am in the process of refactoring the Decred secp256k1 to use SHA256 hashes for the signature and adding BIP340 tests for the Schnorr signatures. The SHA256 library will be one that uses AVX2 SIMD - which is substantially faster than the SHA256 code used in btcd/lnd. This will be a clean, dependency free package for Golang bitcoin/lightning/nostr developers that will save everyone from the go modules hell of btcd.

I think it's kinda cool and interesting that Nostr is literally the Latin root for "our" - the plural possessive pronoun. As opposed to "theirs".

Anyone who has worked with btcd or lnd will agree with me (unless they are forgetful) when I say that these codebases need to be completely scrapped and redone. I wasted so much time trying to simply refactor some generated code out of the protocols in lnd last year when I tried to get started doing work on bitcoin/lightning related stuff that I don't think it ever got merged and I don't think they ever resolved the issue I was working on either. I'm so sick of the chaos of importing anything from the btcd repository that I'm gonna make a clean, unencumbered, complete, and optimal version of the secp256k1 library, with both ecdsa and schnorr signatures, and a simd (AVX2) optimised SHA256 hash function in it as well. This won't take long, all the code exists. And I'll make it so BIP 340 schnorr signature tests actually fully pass the crazy new additions with the abnormal and irrelevant non-32 bit long message signing functionality - directly porting from the C++ version. The Bitcoin codebase is heavily encumbered with stupidity. That any of it works is amazing, and that anyone has managed to build anything to work with it, even more amazing. I personally believe that segwit was an act of sabotage, and several others of these insane things in the code are also sabotage. The entire btcsuite and lightningnetwork github org codebase is an insult to computer programmers everywhere.

It's my opinion that the malfunction in psychopaths is a nano scale, broad pattern, that could be detected if you had an imaging system that was able to capture and recognise this fault. There must be a difference, and the difference must be detectable. Thus, it follows that no advanced civilisation capable of escaping the gravity well would be unable to perform this diagnostic, and thus, it would be impossible for such individuals to not be detected and confined, or executed, since there is no such thing as an individual with this issue who hasn't tormented innocent people and animals, I would say, executed is the only proper Rx for such a disease. Very likely the psychos in charge know this, that's why they are shit scared of "aliens" coming to visit.

I almost can't believe it is real, but it's real. Android phone that is working as modem for now has no google play services, and as it happens, every single google app nags you if it hasn't got play services enabled. fdroid has some nice alternatives, simple dialer, simple sms. So now I can take calls on it as well, receive SMS, without google. The millimetre wave emitting G51 is now out of use. It has a bunch of things on it that I might want to deal with later, but actually, no. Nothing on there isn't part of what I use on my pc that I actually need. So it's now in purgatory, awaiting its perdition. Just need to make sure the rooted, degooglified phone is serving adequately, for the time being, when I get cabled internet organised, I'm assigning my spare laptop to VoIP phone duties, setting up a nice HD camera, condenser mic, and when that's done, I need to sell my bluetooth speakers and get some at least dual driver, wired speakers. Soon there will be no unnecessary EMF coming from anything in my possession. You wanna call me. Wait until I'm at home, sorry, not sorry.

I'm very unsatisfied with this uninstalling thing. I have important things to do but I have managed to finally stop the endless popups. I wouldn't even consider buying a mobile device anymore without verifying I can uninstall non essential software on it. The form factor is not enough. If I have to use a laptop to make phone calls, so be it. If I can't even make a rooted device not run intrusive shit what reason have I got to keep this shit? Handy tool you say. It's chewing up half my day. Next week they are all gone. There is no reason for this except manipulation.

It is quite surreal what rooting android devices has become. I just want to remove the garbage google shit that keeps popping up retarded notifications. To start with.

I used to think it was amazing when I saw people who were in their middle age but still looked young. Most of them were rich af and I figured it was artificial. Now I am among them. I still look 10 years or better, if I smile, than average. I did nothing special. I have no money. I can tell you what things I did but most of them were mistakes. Mostly, I think that age comes from sugars and starches. Onarges, chocolate and beef fat seem to be very helpful to the skin. Also, no sunscreen. The sun is not what causes aging.

I am gathering the quotations that clearly imply that "the elect" are said to become warriors in the assault on the enemies of the good.

I enjoy the social media thing, it was appealing from the beginning, my first rodeo was dmt-world. Then I discovered thehive.ws. But two years later the CIA/NSA got involved and created facebook and everything has gone downhill from there. I'm just gonna say, as much as I love you all, your minds have been mostly poisoned by the soulless automatons behind the curtain, whether you know it or not, and I'm giving you all a break until I build my own nostr client to share with you all, and hopefully at that point some decent filtering systems will exist. Until then, I'm signing off, and putting my time to more productive uses than dealing with the skat and dickpics. Sorry not sorry.
