I think you're asking about how core makes it's initial connections and how it discovers peers?

Core comes with a list of addresses that it knows to be nodes functioning (these are normally core devs or long standing nodes) these nodes send back to your client a list of peers they're connected to (up to 1000 IPs) and you then send a message to some/each of those.. Presumably ip heuristics are used to better locate who to connect to (someone in Europe will be faster to connect to if you're in Europe than the US).

The peers.dat then stores a list of up to 1000 of your nodes fastest peers, once you have a full chain you'll also be included in those peers.dat on standard nodes of other people.

I don't really know what game you're talking about but my main point was that Nintendo don't have an obvious gender bias...
Feminism is toxic, most people who say they support it only say that either rationalise or make a joke about something.

The majority of both men and women will agree they wouldn't want the responsibility of something like that too in real life (from a western perspective at least) ...

Yeah there's a lot more stuff you could do anyway. Find puzzle books, solo games (or games against others if you have more people in the house), online quizzes... And moving to encryption/decryption in the advancement you want to go, try and pick up a skill or something if you want or look into a new framework/coin.


I think most liked them, they just didn't have an excuse to buy one. If a dude buys a gadget, he deosn't feel the need and normally doesn't need to explain himself - if a girl does it they feel they'll need an excuse to spend so much.

Also animal crossing might have just been released which convinced them all to get a switch.

I wouldn't say any games console is particularly masculine or femanine. Certain parts of games may be aimed at one gender but there I know as many geeky/nerdy girls as I do guys to know that both are interested in all games consoles.


Not sure I understand what this means? I definitely wouldn't expect to spend the $62 on a game...

You're going to have to say how this will be done but I'll go with what I'd expect:

If you're using a HD wallet with a derived xpub and xprv then you merely import the xpub into the server for the clients to pay into and keep the xpriv on an offline device...

You'd then sign a transaction with the xpriv and transfer it to an online device to consolidate everything.

The actual signing of the 1000 inputs into one transaction is trivial and will be handled by any client. The important thing is, if you don't need to consolidate quickly, you should consolidate at a 1 sat per byte fee where possible and enable a rbf double spend in the software you're using.

Most guy friends already had a Nintendo switch, most female friends have recently bought one... Check the price of games on the Nintendo store - its them doing the extortion.


I mean £49.99 for a game, how good could it possibly be? I don't spend more then £20 per game so I can't see why someone would pay 50 for some of these...

Most I've found is this: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/graphs/contributors

Looks like the text in the console is the output of an api call though: and probably a simple one at that. It might even be in the dot git once you clone the directory since collaboration data is stored in the repo folder.

I dunno, a month ago was it just me getting flooded with articles on "bitcoin past $10k, where will we end: $13k, 15k, 20k...."

People are scared that btc took it's dive but in a month it'll probably go back to being old news...

I may sell SOME I haven't fully decided myself.

I can't decide if that block explorer is broken, didn't think we'd go sub 1mb .

Using anything more than 1 sat per byte is kinda just throwing funds at miners and 1 sat per byte - at current - should only take 30 minutes to 2 hours MAX to confirm.

Well we don't exactly need casinos, a lot of the high up staff will find jobs elsewhere, as will the low ranking staff... You don't need a famous area to run a successful casino... They must be sorted money wise anyway, a lot of casino owners are either chained and can claim money from the government for ferlough and other schemes and most European countries offer mortgage holidays - casinos probably aren't rented in Vegas they might not even be on mortgage but they're definitely not going to be the worst hit... If casinos plummit I can't imagine people will say it was awful they're not there anymore (especially if they were addicted - a few months away might be all they need especially if they don't like online gambling because it lacks the atmosphere)...

Well the gold often mentioned is more "shiny stuff" that lay around the surface imo, just if someone else considered it valuable.

Gold in the ancient times was on the surface of the earth and in caves... But for obvious reasons it isnt anymore. Howvere, I don't think gold has much of a purpose anymore (don't think it can do much platinum can't).

Water is also kinda worthless so the anology doesn't really follow I don't think... Most of western europe have springs and lakes that carry drinkable water (not sure about the rest of the world).

Much my thoughts with your first paragraph, a country owned coin would also probably have to fix its inflation rate at the start of the contract or it won't be well trusted.

But with p2, if you think about it, if people think the £ is worth more than other currencies in unit cost and people. Relate this to history, maybe the first fiat currency to hit the blockchain will make it recognisable... England was looking at doing it and released documents on it - and then just stopped... Its likely another CB could take it on just to be the first...

Nah polo7 normally posts some economics news here, they've probably just forgotten to include the link to the article...

Although I don't know if this is a tad misdirected since they didn't say what currency it was meant to be based on and I doubt they're recommending eth.

Aren't there already eth tokens for fiat? Like usdc? How is this one different, have you got an article for it or something? I can't find anything that mentions a new one are you just talking about the old?

What happened to April 2 or have I missed something? It doesn't look to be on that list?

I managed to gleam more informtion on why a lot of posts were deleted on April 1st here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5237204.msg54138698#msg54138698

A lot of us don't have many posts delted, I've probably had about 8-20 only deleted since I've been here for the past 4 and a bit years. Longest going without was probably 6 months to a year where I forgot mods could still delete posts until I found one that was deleted...

Yeah 5 documents is a huge amount to send. I remember only sending one and saying "if this doesn't get approved, I'm giving up" and it did within an hour or so.

A lot of comopanies are off and, especially if you're in Europe, expect a response when the virus is passed. The virus + gdpr means they've probably left bots to deal with everything (especially in places with lockdowns) and they probably won't be classed as an essential service in a lot of countries so will have been shut down (they might still be functioning in the UK though and outside of europe although a lot of companies use romania or india to deal with their support and if either of those are in a full lockdown both will be really slow to deal with stuff).

And yeah, from my sources san francisco wasn't allowing much movement at all.

https://www.who.int/mediacentre/news/ebola/06-october-2014/en/

Transmission through saliva wasn't fully proven but things such as vomit, blood and semen were. The problem with ebola was that it lingered - for example semen for 70 days... The nurse from the UK that caught it managed to recatch it due to it lingering in eye fluids afaik and that was around a month later I think.

If it travels through bodily fluids you've still got a chance to get infected if you have an open wound or even a red rash (sometimes blisters and scabs too especially if they're put under pressure)...

In that case, the only answer I can give is that they've designed the platform to be so confusing that they've confused themselves in the process...

Is your weekly value less than the 350 then?

I've used archive sites as a middleman in the past or you can use other proxies at the outer layer. They're unlikely to add trackers to the files you download, but they might do. Anyway most social media like reddit, imgur, Facebook and twitter freely welcome users over tor without any slowness so this shouldn't be too much of a problem.

Yes!

You could leave a note on the USB drive in plain text as to how to decrypt (obviously not including the password) to remind yourself.
