BTW, nice clothes are ALWAYS better than cheap one's. I bought an expensive leather jacket a few decades ago, and is as good many years later.


Also more durable/sustainable, when properly handled. In the end, quality wear often induces less cost, over time.

EDIT: I just remembered me buying a 10-pack of cheap t-shirts on amazon, two years ago. One wash later and they were like half sized.
I gave em to my kids, not a single one lasted longer than a few washes, mainly because of the poor stitching.

i have a charlie daniels band tshirt i bought in the 1980s that i can still wear

edit yes its been washed lol

You can't have a tracking pixel in a signature.

i didnt think you could have a tracking pixel anywhere in the forum; wasnt that the whole point of the forum image proxy setup?

haha...that said...That $622 node/small miner is cool.
1tb disk seems enough for now (maybe for 4-5 years longer), but a question to those who run a node: is pruning to reduce the size OK to do once you downloaded the whole chain?
Thinking of starting running a node, at least from time to time.

i vote full non pruning node for several reasons:

the most time consuming thing is the initial blockchain download.. that could take weeks/months depending on your connection. why throw away data you may want later (for re scanning wallets etc)

you can run your own block explorer against your full node

you can run other wallets against your full node

you can rescan multiple wallet.dats you have with your full node

storage is cheap

If you had one post to prove you weren't just AI shat posting, what would you say in the next post you made?
287  Other / Meta / Re: (Any Guesses?) Are there many real (unpaid) people still posting here at BCT? on: December 06, 2023, 11:44:48 AM

like some members here talk about people who dont do sigs and just post things for absolutely no reason at all except for fun as rarities and speak of them almost in hushed whispers.

or maybe the code in bitcoin protocol nodes already has "milestones" to treat blocks older than X height as valid by default
This is not trustless. If we could do that, then it would be possible to make it a consensus rule. For example: only the last 210,000 blocks are stored, and the rest is automatically marked as valid. Which means, if some bug remain unnoticed for 4 years, it is then set in stone, and cannot be fixed by any chain reorganization.

wouldnt 4 year reorg basically be catastrophic anyway?

For those not yet aware of the recent OpenAI / Sam Altman saga, here's a nice summary:

The OpenAI Saga - Everything Changed AGAIN!

I wonder what's going to happen to OpenAI / ChatGPT after all this mess...

someone asked chatgpt4, openais own product, basically what could happen if a company with loyal employees fired a well known charismatic CEO and it recommended not to do that lol

The current ability to resolve Bitcoin-related issues within a few hours demonstrates that a predominantly paid-driven board fosters a constructive and helpful environment.

so sig campaigners are basically like paid tech support?

i like that

And speaking of rocket science, Elon sure likes blowing them up doesn't he?
Apparently blowing up rockets is a success because it got past the launch pad.

like him or not he knows how to put on a rockin show

When Ethereum supported Proof-of-Work, it had so called "uncle blocks" (the respective stale blocks in Bitcoin), but that came with additional economic complexity.

yeah stales happened so often that you could get rewarded some amount of eth for submitting stale blocks and i cant see bitcoin doing that.
