Yes, that too. You can use Rpis pin to transmit FM radio for instance. Which gives me crazy idea: if you transmitted a fake ad "call <number> and say <seed> to win 1M dollars" how many people could hear it and would call?

2024-08-06 20:32:15

- reply

They have cheap BLE tags. If those cannot be reverse-engineered maybe you can record their beacons without the reach of any other device and then just replay them. Buying 256 tags may be worth it if the victim stores tens of millions satoshis.
I'd be really surprised if there isn't any way to sneak out 256 bits of data. Or less if the attacker wants to do some brute forcing.

2024-08-06 20:08:00

- reply

Even without it, there are other similar networks which relay information.

2024-08-06 20:03:13

The attacker could pretend it's 256 devices and transmit the seed by simply sending or not sending a message. It's not that high number.

I don't know how small GSM is today but I know that ten years ago the smallest widely available wifi module was around 100 times larger and 10 times costlier than today. So it migh become feasible in the future. There are other radio communication protocols as well.

If that happens you're screwed anyway. A compromised HWW might as well contain a radio transmitter.

You're exaggerating. Every competent hww checks firmware signature. Something an average joe can't do kn their laptop.

2024-08-02 16:53:23

- reply

Don't trust, verify! Did you do the tests yourself? But good to know what to look for if I decide to check.
Anyway, I've been thinking unless it allows you to get a significant personal benefit, just like carnivore or bitcoin, it may be best to not associate ourselves with any conspiracy theories regardless of their truthfulness and focus on spreading the idea that the government itself is illegitimate. Without the government there are no large scale conspiracies.
Things that provide benefits can already improve the lives of voluntaryists and can help others see the government as untrustworthy since there's an incentive to get personal gain.

Can't rule out some natural phenomenon or video manipulation.
But chemtrails should be easy to prove if true: which chemical is it? If we find it in atmosphere in sufficient concentration then it's true.
Anyway, what's the direct impact on my life and how can I use this information for personal gain?

2024-08-02 06:12:27

It's just water vapor. Just because the incentives align governments to abuse money and food doesn't mean they align them to spray chemicals on Earth.

The state is inherently based on power over people. If Bitcoin continues regardless of what the state does it challenges the primary distinguishing feature of the state and thus it's inherently anti-state.

2024-07-14 17:56:34

- reply

It makes perfect sense though. A technology helping to spread the information that the government is inherently evil is a dangerous weapon against the government.

There's more to that. If spamming gets lucrative spammers would just deploy ASICs which most people don't have. So if the difficulty is low spammers can just spam and if it's high then normal people can't use the network either.

Bitcoin is absolutely pro-free-market/anti-socialism. It's inherently political and you can't do nothing about it. Better just accept the truth.

That too. I kinda enjoyed the comfort of being able to get digital content even if paid. (Why not support the authors anyway?) But if I can still lose it after purchase why not just pirate it? Amazon will have a lot of convoncing to do here.

I'm warming up towards covenants. Originally I thought you can do everything interactively and not complicate Bitcoin/add data to chain but now I realize there's a lot of complexity in that and a bunch of weird edge cases that are difficult to solve.

If I'm going to close the channel anyway why wouldn't I use whichever state is the most favorable for me? Sure with watchtowers the probability of success is low but I don't see any downside trying. If failure meant losing $5 worth of btc it'd be at least some reason not to.

The problem with penalty-less channels is they destroy the strong disincentive to cheat. There needs to be a penalty for LN to stay secure. It doesn't need to be 100% of the channel capacity, just an amount high enough to deter abuse.

The point is you download the key only once - the first time. The probability of getting infected the first time is lower than the probability of getting infected the first time plus with any of the manual updates. And you can still use keybase or other alternative sources.
But the education of how to do this properly is generally low, that's true. Nostr could make it more user friendly in some aspects but it introduces another problem: duplicate profiles. You have to know which specific key belongs to the person you trust.

You implied it.
You have a point that the very existence of government is an infringement. Unfortunately, it's not practical to ignore it completely. E.g. not use any roads.

I don't think you can reliably infer cancer risk, unless it's orders of magnitude higher. Also carnivore could offset it sufficiently.

Or just: only money has the double spending problem that requires solution without trusted parties. Everything else either doesn't have the double spend problem or you have trusted parties anyway (tickets, loyalty points...). Blockchain is expensive and designed specifically to solve the double spend problem without trusted parties. Therefore blockchain is only useful for money.

This is the most reasonable opinion about Saylor I've ever heard.
Also it's interesting to know that Saylor is optimizing for the size of audience. He wants to get as many people on board as possible and adding these important but difficult topics makes his audience smaller.
