fillippone has my vote.

i was going to compile a list of just some of his contributions to this forum that highlighted what he brings the table. the patience, willingness to learn from, and teach to, other forum members. to start new threads that draw you in and before you know it youve learned something new.  and just generally give his threads and his replies a friendly, easy atmosphere.

but all one needs to do is look at his recent threads (and posts). you will very quickly come to the same conclusion. fillippone will be a worthy merit source.

Thought I’d share this here since you post it often. Br. Check your computer

https://qr.ae/TWHxAd

interesting. thanks for the link.

hunted around the windows computer i use for discord and found nothing related to "discord" in my programs list or any of my %appdata% folders. i only run discord through my browser though, i never installed any specific discord app on the computers. perhaps thats why? i need to look into this further as the web version of discord says it updates itself on occasion so something related to discord is persistent on the computer.

i do use discord a lot on my phone though. just like phil mentioned about mac versions, i now wonder about android..

I do get your point that maybe just squeezing my eyes tightly and not looking at BTC price for a year or two might be wise...  Take away my computer?

as long as you can watch its value crash to zero at any instant and be more or less ok with it its pretty easy, especially if you believe in the tech as i did and do.

Prices are a distraction, keep your eye on the prize.
Please elaborate.

Put yourself into a drug/alcohol-induced haze for the next two years, and HODL. No SODL.

this worked for me. late 2011 to 2013.

EDIT: although i suppose i never stopped the drug induced haze part

I don't believe yet. More bear posts needed! Deploy the FUD trolls!  Please save me!
disclosure: Bought this dip twice and considering another. Long term multi-halving HODL

the lowest cost coin i have is perhaps $2.50 USD. so until its under that its a bull market to me. sorry  Grin
2487  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: A Serious Bitcoin Security Warning!!! on: October 24, 2019, 02:41:59 PM
this topic aint new but worth a mention
other tricks are that these qr readers may actually have a list of 200k-11m addresses preloaded of vanity gen addresses of every first 3-4 characters of an address. but where the scammer has all the privkeys of.

because some people only check the first few characters the destination of a tx appears to match where you hope it should go, so people are easily duped if in a rush

best advice after scanning an address. check the destination. its best to check the whole address matchs, but if in a rush check the final few characters. not the first few. this is because its harder to vanity gen the final few characters than it is to gen the first few

definitely this. when in a hurry for smallish amounts i at least check the 1st few, last few and something in the middle. there are almost always 3 or 4 consecutive characters in the middle of the addy somewhere that stand out well due to whatever reason. so easy to spot and compare.

for larger amounts of course i would check more that that.

3k BTC WILL COME any day here

3k is not scary... you should try harder... why not 1k?  Grin

$1k? that would be merely annoying.

$30? now that would be a bit nerve racking.

I used to be a permabull and I still am, but I need some fellow holder to reassure me.

I didn't struggle too much when btc was 3k-ish, because i was only waiting for the final capitulation, which i tought finally happened when we jumped to 14k and then, after correction, we were going sideways10k-ish.

From here, I thought, it can only go up.

But now we are experiencing a significant further correction, and today's red dildo is really tought for me, not financially but emotionally.

Worst than all, during the last year or so I saw too little development: lighting network is cool and I even used it with my android, but there are almost no merchants. And we still dosen't have an open market or a p2p exchanger. And I am really afraid that if we dosen't manage to get a working ecosystem BEFORE regulation, regulation will kill most of the coming projects.

Today I need someone to hodl my hand and say that everything is still ok.

i would love to tell you its ok. but i cant. because its bitcoin, and it does whatever it wants.

all you do is hang on and admire its total disregard for charts, technical analysis, governments, forks and pretty much anything else.

2491  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: UPDATE CW at conference in London WTF? SCANDAL!!! What really happened? on: October 20, 2019, 12:04:58 PM
No offence to the OP but we already have this thread isn't it? SCAM: Bitcoin SV (BSV) - fake team member and plagiarized white paper. Do we really need another topic and give CSW that attention again?

csw will find ways to create attention any way he can, forever. its what he does, as he apparently has no real talents for anything else but doing his clown shows. his antics are too varied and too stupid to contain in one thread.

i actually dont mind. its awesome comic relief.
2492  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: USBHarpoon - a charging cable that can hack your computer on: October 19, 2019, 05:15:20 PM


@o_e_l_e_o Is it really going to be effective to hack someone or infect a virus when you just use a public charging station? Infecting the one you are charging?

Absolutely. There is a public charging station at my nearest airport with about 20 cables of various sizes. Every time I am there, they are almost all being used. That's hundreds of devices each day.

i never use airport, hotel, or any other public charging ports or cables for any device i own. i always have my own usb chargers and cables when i have AC outlets available, and several powerbanks (and assorted cables for them also) for when out and about. powerbanks are a lifesaver at airports and such when your phone is more or less indispensable (as they can have tickets, itinerary, tsa and airline apps etc loaded on them and constantly in use).

usb powerbanks come in so many sizes and capacities its foolish not to have some. some are solar powered, so can be charged even when no power is available.

EDIT you can also build your own powerbanks if you are so inclined and just want to be sure its not hiding any funny stuff.. just search for "diy usb power bank" in your favorite search engine.

stolen? sure..  various exchanges and pools stole some.

lost? that too. those were all purely due to my own stupidity.

You think I may be joking, but - after making a stop at a gun shop a couple weeks back - I finished loading 40x and 30x magazines for my .223 AR-15. Just sitting here at the edge of my desk waiting to be packed away into the carry-case.

be glad your state still allows high capacity mags. some dont. lotta high capacity mags were lost in unfortunate boating accidents a while back. very sad.

There are some pretty severe security concerns around Casa Hodl at the moment. 

https://twitter.com/jwweatherman_/status/1182486419580866560?s=21

transmitting seed words in clear text on your local network.. brilliant. all those IoT devices that are security nightmares to the network they are on will love it (well the hackers that took them over will). not to mention compromised PCs.

to isolate stuff as much as possible i wound up creating separate vlans (via a cisco managed switch) for my gear.. household stuff on one, the security camera system on its own with a dedicated nas for backup, and the miners, again with a dedicated nas for their backups.

the security cams are the worst, they all want to go online. thus isolating them (or any other IoT thing) is the 1st thing to do when planning any system that attaches to your network.

I want him to answer why almost identical logos are not misleading. I am almost looking forward to his dancing, weaving, obfuscating bullshit. 

@jbreher (or anyone): what happened to the dragon logo it had at one point?

Trezor (security by open-source) or Ledger (security by obscurity)?

which do you prefer?
 

trezor.. security via open source. had a trezor since 2016

i have several trezor model ones (one will do u2f), a trezor t and a ledger. the trezor seems easier and more intuitive than the ledger. and it seems i always have issues with the ledger, minor ones but annoying.
