  • How a 27-Year-Old Codebreaker Busted the Myth of Bitcoin’s Anonymity
  • NightLily NightLily 9mo ago 96%

    I remember when Bitcoin first came out and one of the selling points of bitcoin was that literally anyone could trace the transfers using the wallet codes and what not no? I don't ever remember there being claims that it was untraceable at least as the selling point to the average consumer. There was even tools in like 2012 for tracking whether stuff internally in bitcoin was stolen or whatever...

    "While the taint analysis tool aims at measuring the “correlation” between two addresses, there is another notion of taint in the Bitcoin community which refers to the percentage of bitcoins, that come from a known theft or scam and have been blacklisted by popular exchange markets. For example, in 2012 the bitcoin exchange Mt.Gox froze accounts of customers, who owned bitcoins that could be directly related to such an incident [20]." https://maltemoeser.de/paper/money-laundering.pdf

    I honestly think the reasons are pretty simple on why. They were contacted by a small group of their Muslim or such constituents complaining about free speech this or that or just personal vendettas against Marjorie it seems like she'd generate them.

    Page 46 of the poll, 63% of respondents believe that it was indeed correct that Israel cut off power, water and food until its hostages were returned, whilst 70% of respondents believe that Israel should continue until they eliminate Hamas 30% believe they should stop now. 79% of respondents believed that the destruction of the Hamas government by Israel is justified 21% not. 62% say that USA should enter the fight against Hamas on Israel's side, 8% say the USA should side with Hamas, 31% say USA should not be involved. Note: No undecided option is shown unless otherwise stated. Among 2116 registered voters, Margin of Error +/- 2% As a representative online sample, it does not report a probability confidence interval. Pretty interesting all up but it's odd that people are so in favour of Israel and it's continued war in this poll when there are others that state that they believe that Israel should be encouraged to stop the war and USA definitely shouldn't get involved. see: https://www.dataforprogress.org/blog/2023/10/19/voters-agree-the-us-should-call-for-a-ceasefire-and-de-escalation-of-violence-in-gaza

    I'm still quite confused about why exactly he decided to start with Revolutionary France rather than America or any of the other places that defined themselves by a unique place and a unique nation. Especially with the fact that he goes into German stuff which honestly feels like a better starting point.

    This stuff that came out with the this is so weird to me... I mean even with only the limited stuff that we got it really seems like it was a massive setup and he lost so much from it and the settlement of the case and everything. It's just wow. If the stuff was withheld by the legal team I hope those guys are punished in some way that's ridiculous. It's a shame how much his career was damaged. https://youtu.be/IBW5K9PDVzU?si=dttiGI3YsP0aSbT6&t=824 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9nhOcSY60Ko

    So today I watched probably about 5 hours of youtube content and I think I only ran into about 2 ads during the entire experience I really don't experience that many ads on youtube anymore and I have turned off my ad blockers and such explicitly for Youtube since I wanted to give at least a little bit of ad revenue to the content creators that I watched at the time that I turned it off. Yet I continuously hear that people have been having problems with too many ads and that ads are ruining the experience on youtube. How many ads do people who watch without ad blocker get on a video such that it's seemingly ruining the experience?

    For me the most important quality a role model should invoke is hope, whether that be in the current system and how things can run or the hope that things can change for the better. Whether it be fictional characters or real people the most inspiring characters are the people who try to in some way create change in a seemingly hopeless world and struggle through to make the world better not necessarily even for themselves but for everyone around them, it's also thus what snake oil salesmen and other such hope merchants inevitably prey upon. They are preying on your hope for a better world or your hope to get something out of you whether that is power or just monetary benefits. Hope is something that everyone wishes to cling to as a quality but that people seem to have started reducing down to a transactional thing. When it's anything but that, the people who bring hope always do so at great cost to themselves. People who try to sell hope are people who try and put on a façade that they are helping you out of genuinely good intentions even when they aren't. They are just trying to use your feelings of despair to lure you out. Anyway that's enough about hope from me what do you think of when you hear the word hope.

    What a magnificient being it's an absolute injustice that people have been trying to change his name to Slime Toad. I mean he doesn't even look like a slime he looks like he's an excellent jam and he's definitely a frog and not some kind of toad I mean how could you mix these two things up. Konami really needs to step up and fix the issue they made by renaming this card from it's pure and perfect prior form with this new weird and silly decision that they have decided to make by changing it's name. I still have strong feelings about this change even years after it happening. Konami Please fix.
