It should be lol.

I got the impression that you're overly concerned with the young and old. Because your mother is very old, older parents are unlikely to be actively involved in the life of the Internet. In the end, by clicking on any link, she definitely will not incur any losses because, logically, she simply does not have any important data on her phone.
But with children, I would agree. But then again, as a parent, I know all the warnings are useless. A child, even in adolescence, has the curiosity of a cat. There will be links that still tempt him to click on them.
You just need unobtrusive control of where and how much time your children, and maybe elderly parents, spend time on the Internet. And probably, in my opinion, while you understand that communication with the phone can be fraught, not store any important data in their phones.

Even if it is so that you are trying to restore your reputation, I do not see anything wrong, and I should only be happy for you. People tend to make mistakes; there are no saints anywhere. But I really don't understand why you need another red tag.
2364  Other / Off-topic / Re: Do you agree that an employer should hire employees who are smarter than him? on: November 23, 2022, 08:27:22 AM
There are two categories of leaders. Some are afraid to hire smart employees because, firstly, there is an opinion that experienced employees have a habit of always criticizing the authorities and advising them on how to do better. Hence, some businessmen, in order to look smarter, prefer to hire inexperienced employees. Furthermore, their wages fall far below those of skilled workers.
On the contrary, the second category prefers to hire experienced workers, giving them all the rights to implement their ideas. There is a good expression that when we see opportunities for growth, the poor person thinks, "How can I achieve them?" A rich man thinks about: "With the help of whom will I do this?"



I wonder why Jack Ma, the founder of Alibaba said that hiring lazy people is better because they find solution to problems the easiest ways, he claimed lazy people are better than hardworking people, meaning hardworking people goes the hardest way and lazy people goes the easiest way.

Is this a lame idea from Jack Ma?


Are you sure Jack Ma said that?
Is my search talking about a completely different person? And that's Bill Gates.

Quote
Bill Gates thinks you should hire lazy people. No, seriously. He famously said, "I choose a lazy person to do a hard job. Because a lazy person will find an easy way to do it."

I’m receiving this email since last year but I didn’t bother to look on it until now that I became curious on what’s the content since I don’t subscribe on any google form using my personal email.


You made me smile Smiley. Your curiosity will someday be able to play a cruel joke on you. If you are sure that the sender is unknown to you, why open such emails at all? Although I have never come across information that you can immediately pick up some kind of virus when opening emails, being interested in dubious emails is fraught with consequences.
I am more than sure that if you use an email that is familiar to some people, that is, your circle of acquaintances and employees, the number of such emails will be at a minimum, with some degree of risk. Just separate your business email boxes from all the other junk that comes from the web.
2366  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Two important lesson I learn from this forum this year 2022 on: November 23, 2022, 07:27:02 AM
Those who witnessed the FTX scam, and even more so the victims, learned a good lesson for the future: not to trust the exchanges. We have seen in the news that recently, after the collapse of the exchange, users have withdrawn more than 172,700 BTC to their noncustodial wallets in a month. This indicates that the exchanges are losing trust, and it is likely that many will become more aware of the concept of the expression "not your keys, not your money."
Today we see newcomers thinking about privacy issues, but in my opinion, you can't achieve privacy in just one day. There are so many flags that we may have left in the past on the Internet, and today, history may be difficult to remove.

You must have 50 earned merits to vote

why is it called the community awards when some set of people are not allowed to vote?

I feel the same too because it is discrimination and irrelevant. You want to tell us that only those who have gotten that 50 merits are the real members or most intelligent ones of this forum? To say the truth, nobody should be treated that way because of merit load.

I can speak from my own experience. When I was a newbie, I had absolutely no idea who was who on the forum. Later, while searching for scams on the forum, I discovered the nicknames of other people who were also engaged in this activity; these were the first people I regularly read. Further, while staying on the forum, I began to understand people, and an understanding of the real interests of users came. I think you understand what I'm getting at.
It takes some experience to evaluate users properly, and that takes time. If voting will accept all users, are you really sure that they know who is being voted for? I agree that some people have quickly gained 50 merits, but on average, it takes a long time to gain merits, and during this time, we see users who are already familiar with the forum.
Even now, there are those who vote for someone who is completely unrelated to the occupation in which he is ranked.
2368  Economy / Scam Accusations / ViperSoftX - A new Trojan that steals cryptocurrencies through a Chrome extensio on: November 22, 2022, 11:11:23 AM
Avast experts have discovered malware that steals information from users of Windows systems.

Quote
We’ve been closely monitoring an information stealer called ViperSoftX.

They named the USA, India, Italy and Brazil among the most affected countries.

Quote
This multi-stage stealer exhibits interesting hiding capabilities, concealed as small PowerShell scripts on a single line in the middle of otherwise innocent-looking large log files, among others. ViperSoftX focuses on stealing cryptocurrencies, clipboard swapping, fingerprinting the infected machine, as well as downloading and executing arbitrary additional payloads, or executing commands.

Quote
One of the payloads ViperSoftX distributes is a specific information stealer in the form of a browser extension for Chromium-based browsers. Due to its standalone capabilities and uniqueness, we decided to give it its own name, VenomSoftX. The malicious extension provides full access to every page the victim visits, carries out man-in-the-browser attacks to perform cryptocurrency addresses swapping by tampering with API requests’ data on popular cryptocurrency exchanges, steals credentials and clipboard content, tampers with crypto addresses on visited websites, reports events using MQTT to the C&C server, and more.

ViperSoftX is mostly spread via cracked software such as Adobe Illustrator, Corel Video Studio, Microsoft Office, and more, commonly distributed over torrents.
https://decoded.avast.io/janrubin/vipersoftx-hiding-in-system-logs-and-spreading-venomsoftx/

What are we seeing? Again, Windows systems and the Chrome browser Everyone is strongly advised to start studying Linux systems and not to trust this browser and, even more, various extensions that supposedly simplify the work on the Internet.
2369  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: The primitive era had the best Bitcoin could offer!!! on: November 21, 2022, 02:04:19 PM

A story about British James Howell, who threw away his hard drive containing 7500 BTC in 2013 and has since used every possible means to search for the hard drive, including using robot dogs and human robots. He has spent millions of dollars on the endeavor. James Howell is a perfect example of a modern nightmare.

What this guy is doing is crazy. But to believe that your money is somewhere out there is sadomasochism. He dug through a bunch of garbage, but he was left with nothing. I think he should have just felt sorry for his mental health.
Many of us have probably lost something in our lives that we deeply regret. It all depends on the person; someone will say "to hell with him" and live on, and someone else will spend their money on searching, getting into an even bigger ass.
By the way, everyone who wants to grieve can also start crying, since the knowledge that you could buy bitcoin at the very beginning is tantamount to losing James Howells.

If you are wondering, then yes, I have children, but they are few. We are working on it. Does this really surprise you? Grin
Another question that amuses me a lot is how many women we have on the forum. I see LoyceV, o_e_l_e_o, Rikafip, and even Theymos on the lists. Shocked Shocked Shocked
I wonder what these users who have made their choice want to say. A sign of recognition in this form?

I think that for bitcoin itself, fiat is unimportant, as noted above. But for us, unfortunately, fiat is still needed since bitcoin is not widely accepted everywhere, and we cannot use it fully when trading various goods. In my country, there is a strict law that prohibits the use of bitcoin. Therefore, I am forced to exchange it for fiat in cases where I need to purchase something.

If a casino prohibits users from visiting its site, changing the IP address and even the DNS may not always help.
Pmalek is absolutely right that changing the IP address will only help if the user has never violated the rules of the casino. In all other cases, such sites have an anti-fraud system that includes many means of detecting fraudulent actions on the part of customers, in particular, user fingerprints. And it's not just about changing the IP. Anyone who wants to return to the casino after its ban will have to work hard to bypass the anti-fraud system.
Here you can find out by how many parameters you can be observed on the site if you once decide to create multi-accounts

Official link

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/twitter-crypto-head-staff-resign-190633380.html

It is well known fact that a lot of Twitter employees are leaving the company. Now the news that Tess Rinearson, who was made the head of Twitter crypto team has made a tweet stating that he is leaving the company. Many other people in the crypt unit of Twitter space also followed her and announced that they will also be leaving the company. What impact do you think this will have on crypto space in general ? I am sure they must be working on crypto inclusion on the platform in some way and now when they have left the decisions will be delayed in this matter.
I think Elon Musk forgot that he can't eat his cake and have it back. He had fired many of the twitter employees and now the rest of then have decided to resign and this will have a big blow in the tire Twitter as a company with greater effect. I saw the news that he had booked a meeting the employees so that they can have a dialogue on how to resolve the matter.
If these people finally leave twitter, many things will go wrong with bigger consequences on the company. I still don't know why he decided to fire many of twitter employees at the first time. Let's see how this will work out.

Oh, what are you talking about? Musk is a smart person and knows what he's doing. Not a single "holy place" will remain empty. Instead of some good employees, the best will come. Twitter needed a movement with its politics for a long time, and finally, it began. I am sure that there is already a queue for vacancies; the old army must go after their leaders.
Trump's account has been unlocked, which clearly shows that Musk has a completely different vision of the policies that the old leadership adhered to.

I agree with the OP; everything has its cycles. Black stripes are necessarily replaced by white ones. The same will happen with bitcoin. I like such motivational themes aimed at believing in the future. Especially for beginners who come here and do not always correctly assess the state of affairs. There will always be alarmists who want to create a lot of drama, but I would prefer people who, despite everything, do not give up and believe.

It's a little surprising that you're summing up the year in November, although you probably know better. It is also very pleasant to read that you are a purposeful person with a positive attitude toward the future. As for the plans, I think it would be the right choice to buy bitcoin; the rest of the coins are for risk-takers. No matter what, Bitcoin remains the leader, and if we talk about what has been or will be, it always remains the center of attention for those who own it.
2378  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Warning! New type of malware - address swap attack on: November 19, 2022, 01:47:09 PM
This malware is downloaded after a user installs an extension in their browser. Therefore, the best solution for your security would be to use the Firefox browser, abandon the Chrome browser, and also not make a Christmas tree out of your browser by installing a lot of extensions. When installing the desired extension, you must consider the number of users who installed it as well as the time the extension was created. If it is very new, then you should be careful, and it is better not to install it.
The installation of Linux systems is the icing on the cake for anyone who wants to better protect their computer from most malware. This advice can be given to anyone who is beginning to be interested in cryptocurrencies for parallel study.
2379  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Teaching my nephew about Bitcoin on: November 19, 2022, 12:37:46 PM
Although this is just my personal opinion, I would feel sorry for your nephew. Give him a ball and let him go play football with his friends. Knowledge about bitcoin does not take much time; you can explain everything to him when he gets older. But God, I see a blackboard and a teacher, and someone standing with a movie camera. Made me laugh. It is clear why these photos were taken. For an eleven-year-old child, it also takes practice to captivate him. Does the child have pocket money? My son usually spends them on his games, sweets, and other needs that are interesting to him at his age. Knowing from experience, children rarely agree to save for an extended period of time. But your nephew will eventually need to experience everything firsthand. Will he be able to buy himself a certain amount of bitcoins in order to fully feel like a young investor?
2380  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Bitcoin can be centralised or decentralised on: November 19, 2022, 11:08:25 AM

I believe private keys is what makes every Bitcoin owner decentralised not just the coin itself so if CEX is preferred over DEX and hardware wallets specifically open sourced wallets then the idea of centralised slavery is what should be dealt with. The fear of misplacing seed phrase and private keys is still a big concern to many who believe they are careless with storing and keeping important datas.

To me this sounds a bit confusing. If a person is afraid of losing the passphrase, that is, if he understands his fears, then what is he worried about? What does he do in ordinary life? He does his best to protect what is important to him. Finally, if three archives of saving his phrases are not enough for the paranoid, he will make thirty-three. I mean, if we understand the danger, then we can prepare and protect ourselves.
I still think the OP has some translation difficulties. Because centralized slavery, as the OP puts it, will in no way ensure the loss of what a person personally owns.
