I use and recommend DeArrow and SponsorBlock browser extensions. DeArrow makes video titles and thumbnails more truthful and frankly, more boring. It removes sensational thumbnails meant to entice and get you to click. I find myself watching less youtube because of it.
SponsorBlock blocks more than just ads-- it can block redundant previews/hooks that are meant to grab people's attention at the start of the video, as well as intermissions or intro animations. It can even help skip filler tangents and jokes. Overall, it saves me time.
Both extensions are from https://ajay.app/. Keep in mind there is a small learning curve and they take a little getting used to. Also YouTube just updated their site a few days ago which broke both extensions. So if you're thinking of trying, you might have to wait a few days until the extension maintainer gets them running again.
If I were an attacker looking to sweep private keys from mobile hot wallets, I'd distribute malware alongside an innocent looking, Bitcoin themed game distributed as an .apk. Big red flag!
How did you set up the workshop? What type of venue? I'm asking because I've been thinking of starting a group at my local library.
+1 on this idea, because I myself was doing that.
As soon as I heard about the tarriffs, I jumped on Aliexpress to shop for drones.
I don't think it's strange because it's clear from talking to people that so few understand that it's government that causes inflation. Most people think it's caused by evil corporations, and the whole media apparatus reinforces that idea.
Inflation: "Corporate greed." Monetary debasement: "What's that?"
Ever since I saw Ghost In the Shell, I've wanted their techwear display technologies to be real.
Use cases I want:
- Adblock in real life-- replace billboards and other propoganda with pictures of cats.
- Anthropophobia filter-- replace strangers with dark coloured cylinders.
- Navigation HUD-- See a compass, my destination, and my buddies' location
- Tachikoma assistant-- sometimes annoying, but their help comes in clutch when you need it most
I learned about this a few years ago from Matt Walker's excellent TED talk.
I have criticisms.
- Use of AI art. Ew, cringe. Please pay human artists. Especially with your manifesto as it is; touting supporting creators... Please practice what you preach.
- 3-click rule. When you're advertising your website, don't make me search around to find the link to your website. Just post the damn URL!
- Clicking the Discover button on the homepage doesn't respond. If it isn't meant to do anything when clicked, delete it!
- Lack of quality control. A majority of the projects listed at /launchpad look like low quality projects doing e-begging. Half the images look AI generated. It's this kind of sloppy experience that prevents me from wanting to return.
That being said, I hope the geyser fund can succeed. I love seeing local bitcoin spaces and learning centers have another way to fund what they do.
Ah my bad, here's part 2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RjfcaVvEw68
Definitely cool to look back on, and I'm glad I documented it. Makes me think it's time to record some some more videos to talk about my bitcoin experiences today haha.
Years ago I put a paper wallet in a geocache. Price went up, I got greedy and retrieved the cache for myself. Now I regret taking it because it could have been a great introduction to Bitcoin for someone. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=66f-Zg21f9k
Jack has talked about it on his podcast. Whenever his co-workers have an idea on an innovative product, the bar is always the 60-some percent return that you get from just holding bitcoin. If the idea can't outperform that, the idea gets shot down.
I like the idea of Nostr but I can't get into it because every web client I have tried has terrible performance. They're either turbo bloated JS bohemoths, or the network usage is so great that having the tab open brings down every connected device on my home network. Yes I've tried Primal recently, and it is one of the worst.
I get that there are some nice mobile clients but that's not for me. I hate touchscreen smartphones with a passion; it's gotta be a web app or TUI or I won't use it.
Always thought it would be cool to have a server where players could buy and sell in-game items for Sats. I was thinking about doing a similar thing in Luanti (formerly Minetest.) For awhile, the most popular Luanti server was a server where players could mine PAW token, so that shows there's demand for it.
