Anyone working on L2 for #Monero? ChatGPT Let's break this down into Monero’s current block capacity, then scale that to VISA-level transaction volumes and see what the block size would need to be if Monero tried to match that. --- 1. Monero Block Time 1 block every ~2 minutes 720 blocks per day --- 2. Current Monero Transaction Size Average transaction size: ~2,000 bytes (2.0 KB) Let’s say Monero currently fits 20–30 transactions per block (varies based on block size penalty and mempool). That’s about: 20 tx × 2,000 bytes = 40 KB per block 30 tx × 2,000 bytes = 60 KB per block So roughly: Monero blocks are currently around 40–60 KB in size on average. --- 3. VISA Transaction Volume VISA processes ~150 million transactions per day That’s about 1,736 transactions per second (TPS) In 2 minutes (one Monero block), VISA would process: 1,736 TPS × 120 sec = ~208,320 transactions per block --- 4. What if Monero Had VISA-Level Throughput? 208,320 tx × 2,000 bytes = ~416.6 MB per block So to match VISA's volume: Each Monero block would need to be ~416 MB (compare that to the current ~50 KB size — that’s an 8,000x increase)

This is a good one. Listen to the end. Body and Blood of Christ.

Fountain

The Bible in a Year (with Fr. Mike Schmitz) • Day 100: This Is My Body (2025) • Listen on Fountain

Today we read about Jesus' powerful teaching about the Eucharist. Fr. Mike invites us to believe that the Eucharist is truly the Body, Blood, Soul,...

From Chat GPT "So while pop culture sometimes makes Jesus look like a smiling guru or chill spiritual guy, the real Jesus was a storm and a refuge—love and fire in one person. People either dropped everything to follow him or plotted to kill him. He didn’t leave much middle ground."

Listening to a trad priest preach and a 'regular' priest preach... Its vastly different. Trad priest talk about fidelity to grace, fasting and upper faculties and lower faculties. Regular priest... Well you know how it is.

Are the liberals seriously leading in the polls?

ChatGPT Let’s break this down step by step and estimate how many cows we’d need if everyone on Earth ate a carnivore diet with 80% beef, and then compare that to how many cows exist now. --- Step 1: World Population As of 2024, Earth has about 8 billion people. --- Step 2: Diet Assumption – Carnivore Diet (80% Beef) Let’s assume: Each person eats 2,500 calories per day. 80% of those calories come from beef, so: 2,000 calories/day from beef per person. That’s 730,000 beef calories per person per year. --- Step 3: Calories per Cow A typical cow yields about 500 pounds of edible beef. 1 pound of beef has roughly 1,000–1,200 calories. Let’s average that to 1,100 calories/pound. So: 500 lbs x 1,100 cal = 550,000 calories per cow. --- Step 4: Cows Needed per Person per Year Each person needs 730,000 beef calories/year. One cow provides 550,000 calories. So: 1.33 cows per person per year (730,000 ÷ 550,000). --- Step 5: Total Cows Needed 8 billion people × 1.33 cows = ~10.6 billion cows needed per year. That’s over 10 billion cows annually just to keep everyone fed. --- Step 6: How Many Cows Are There Now? Globally: There are about 1.5 billion cattle (as of recent estimates). Not all are beef cattle; some are dairy cows, oxen, or not slaughtered yearly. --- Conclusion: Current cattle population: ~1.5 billion. Required cattle for global carnivore diet (80% beef): ~10.6 billion cows/year. So we'd need 7 times more cows than currently exist—and every single one would need to be slaughtered annually, which is extremely unsustainable in terms of land, feed, water, emissions, and ethics. --- Want me to calculate what kind of land or resources that would require too?
