7961  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Doctor says mRNA vaccines “will kill most people” through heart failure on: July 21, 2021, 03:21:02 AM
The point is the blood clots in the capillaries. They are increasing all the time. If you look at what the doctor says, he observed his patients for a period of time after the jab. The tiny clots are increasing in number, and maybe size. This will be a slow death for many people.

he said.. if you listen..
he done tests on people which he could only find increased natural microbloodclots in a small window of 4-7 days.. where by only less then 2-3rds had them

what you need to realise is that every time you get a bruise..
your gonna get these microbloodclots enough to measure
every time you get a scratch/cut your going to get micro blood clots enough to measure
every time you get any injury your going to get a micro blood clot enough to measure
every time you have a needle prick your going to get micro blood clots

its not something thats unique to a vaccine.

the amounts measurable in the d-dimer test are way way way below the bloodclot sizes that cause strokes/heart issues.. and they clear themselves up within a week.. even he admits that('have to test them within 4-7days')

and if your still unsure.. maybe look into the livers job of clearing out all microblood clots.
yep humans have for millions of years had their liver doing its normal job..

oh and the vaccine 99% stay around the injection site.. not 25%
a liver is not just for alcohol


..
any doctor blindly just diagnosing people as having heart failure simply because of a d'dimer test.. needs to lose their job
as its like saying 'we have a test that shows you had a paper cut. your heart is now going to fail"
                          'all minor injuries will destroy your heart'
                          'you cut your lip eating a thorny nettle. you now have heart failure'

sorry but no. micro bloodclots dont cause heart failure

real funny thing is badecker must have had a cut or scratch or a bruise at some point.. so now badecker thinks he has heart failure


and the second guy.. the middleaged man wearing a kids comic shirt(facepalm) just wanted to rant that his vaccine caused an immune response.. nothing drastic but just normal immune responses.. he was sure that no one told him the vaccine will trigger his immune system(facepalm) so he was utterly surprised that he felt his immune system working

.. why is it that idiots think that the immune system is not needed and advertise products to suppress the immune system. but then go about saying how the info they offer is all natural and about letting the immune system work

cryptokitties were like a valueless meme for fun

but once NFT caught on by celebrities selling/auctioning unique 'ownership' of digital things their fans want. well boom. demand came

if a NBA player sold a meme unrelated to him.. pfft
if a NBA player sold a certificate of ownership of a basketball that won him the national finals.. $cha-ching$

next up i can see NFT becoming share/splits

have more then 1 path per stage to get to the next stage. (dont put all eggs into one basket)

then from each sub-path. have more idea's to make each one work

..
its like geting a job
dont just send out 1 application and put all your hopes on that one job being your career and hoping for guaranteed promotions... as you may not even get an interview

send out 100 applications. tailor each application to the job specifics.

its like starting a business
dont just sell one product and put all your hopes on that one product being your lifetime thing hoping for guaranteed expansion... as you may not even sell that many

create lots of products. become a brand. do product testing to see if they are even things people want, be willing to change/tweak/redesign product to meet the needs/niche of peoples desires

7966  Other / Off-topic / Re: A silly question about blockchain on: July 21, 2021, 01:53:21 AM
every piece of software that is deemed 'fullnode' software, is handed a copy of the blocks. they all store them on their hardrives
they can all then gossip with each other their latest block ID they have and get any blocks they dont have. and independantly validate the block data matches the ID and then the data meets the rules of bitcoin. to then store that block if it passes all rules

then all the fullnodes are then following the same chain of blocks as they all in agreement of the latest valid block ID.

there is no need to gossip every block ID from block 1 to latest block you have, to compare to other people.
nor need to resend every blocks data just to compare to everyone else..

because the latest block you have contains the chain of previous block ID so by having all the blocks upto say block 690,000. means block 690,000's ID is unique to that exact sequence of data from block1 to 690,000

so as long as when you have validated all the blocks. the block 690,000's ID would match another nodes block 690,000 if they also have all the valid data.
and so as long as everyones block 690.000 id's match each other. you confirm you all have the exact same data back to block 1
7967  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I need help, 10 factors that make Bitcoin decentralized. on: July 21, 2021, 01:35:18 AM
there is a difference between the decentralisation of the archive data. and decentralisation of the rule control

the decentralistion of the rules is not reliant on 'user' fullnodes
the main controllers (byzantine generals) are the merchants and pools, but ends up leaning more to the merchants

pools cant spend value if merchants accept new block/transaction formats and reject old formats
(NYA2017: "merchants reject old block(not flagging new flag) in 2 weeks, meaning pools need to upgrade flag")
NYA was a byzantine general coercion on pools

yep no point making blocks or transactions if the merchant/exchange group have colluded to accept/reject their non-preference blocks/transactions. as all trade ends up revolving around merchant gateways in and out of fiat

post activation
user fullnodes had to upgrade to remain fullnodes of full verification. else be downgraded to 'bridged'/'downstreeam'/'incomplete' nodes.. receiving stripped blocks that 'pass' validation without doing full validation

As I'm never going to be vaccinated, I'm not too worried about this. I am concerned about the graphene oxidecarbon monoxide/dioxode that is being released in aircraft con trails,

and added to various foods[carbohydrates] and domestic products. The good news is thgat yiu can get it out of your body with a good diet. Broccoli and other cruciferous vegetable are good for this.

fixed that for you.. now you sound less like an uninformed nutcase
but just so you know.. carbon monoxide/dioxide and carbohydrates may all have carbon and oxygen in them.. but they are not the same as the mythical graphene oxide

yes companies put sugar into food products
yes airplanes burn fuel which has a byproduct release that is carbon dioxide/monoxide.
but these are not conspiracy intended plots of intentional eugenic plans of death.
its just making food sweeter and burning fuel

if you ignore the fud. and listen to the 5% actual detail that he tries to negativise and slip into his nonsense theory
"the purpose of your immune system and platelets is recognise its a foreign protein and make antibodies"


"the bloodclots you hear in media that are rare are the BIG bloodclots that cause strokes and heart attacks and clots in the brain.. that can be seen on scans... the ones im talking about are so microscopic you cant see them on any scans"

yea too small to cause strokes and heart attacks

he is using a papercut to cause fear of "savage machette murder by paper"

sorry but the micro function of doing its job to deal with the spike is not the same as the large blood clots that cause strokes.

oh and by the way.. i can guarantee you right now and for all time even the antivax numbskulls have these micro bloodclots in their blood right now.. because.. life. biology. normal function of being alive is taking care of all cell damage every minute every hour every day every year no matter the cause

yes microbloodclots are normal part of life

Probably because miners receiving really cheap energy from real reliable sources that work 24/7 would put you out of business even before you make the draft for the investment?

green and cheap is for the utility companies.

A doctor is not a researcher and a plain old doctor is not a specialist in vaccines or viruses. Decker you are really clutching at straws. If we just look at the numbers one doctor vs thousands of other doctors I am pretty sure that this doctor that you link has his medical diploma written on a napkin.

he has no speciality in heart disease nor viruses
he is a family medicine doctor with a side-gig in nutritian..
basically he just tells fat kids to change their diet as his day job

oh and the doctors saying anyone having vaccines die in 2 years

well 99% of people had childhood vaccines.. ,,, there is no 99% deathrate of the under 2yo's
                                                                                                                              12yo's

7975  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why not fix Bitcoin directly? on: July 19, 2021, 06:53:47 PM
back then there were no lite wallets. it was either store funds in an exchange (stupid idea) or use something like blockchain.info (back then they had bugs) o0r for best privkey storage and securty. be a full node
there were no ledger devices, no phone apps

so the main option was to be a full node.

but now people dont need to be. most just use phone apps and ledger devices.

Lets say you are new and you just got into Bitcoin with all the additional options available would you choose one of those over running a node yourself? I feel like you are saying people would choose the easiest option but I would prefer to run my own node and I am sure that you would too. Its not like you have made the change and are now using something else.

actually i do use my own home-made lite wallet aswell.. its just a transaction creator and pusher to the network.

point is.
think common sense, logic and practical real life
if someone is new to bitcoin. well lets use paypal..
if paypal offered their own lite free app. or a desktop software that required days to download data. and wasnt great at just letting you just make a transaction from the first 10 minutes.. would you prefer the lengthy way.

yes being a full node has some security. but practically average joe(non nerds) wont care about the technical bits. they just want to get on and spend

7977  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why not fix Bitcoin directly? on: July 19, 2021, 05:40:31 PM
its been explained a million times that if you coerce people to lock funds up for 3 months and not make any transaction onchain... they no longer need to actively have a fullnode because they no longer care about what happens onchain because the lock is doing its job

people using LN are not carrying their desktop pc to starbucks to monitor the blockchain. they are using phone apps. meaning again. not having a full node active

thus LN causes less decentralisation as in the end the only fullnodes left become the custodial services and 'factory' services of LN

What makes you think that people will shut down their existing full nodes (think the ones that are active on Bitnodes right now) to run an LN channel? If anything, it's going to be the new users who only run LN channels, not OG's who were already running full nodes before mass LN channel creation by other users.

i am an OG in 2012-2015 i was fullnode 24-7. but then as the scaling debates heated up and the merchants accepting btc direct started decreasing.. i started to realise i was not doing many payments a day/week.
now i just run a full node now and again..

only the custodial services and merchants would remain full noders 24/7/365.

again custodians and SERVICES that centralise liquidity and have customers. would be the full nodes
but USERs that just want to spend their value will lock up their funds. and then play around on litewallet phone apps.. why.. because carrying around a desktop for the full node is heavy. the locks mean no need to monitor the blockchain every minute. and not spending funds on chain mean no need to watch the blockchain for new income all the time. so people will see no point in downloading something they are not using hourly/daily.

so here is the question reversed onto you
newbie average joe just getting into crypto why would they go full node? if they are being told the way forward is microchannel altnets

think about it. most exchanges will offer channel opening facility with balance instead of withdrawing to a mainnet. to then lock to then open a channel...
so most new users will just do that for convenience and most exchanges would sway users into that convenient way.

so ask yourself who would choose to start a full node when all the utopian altnetters are pushing hard telling people to not use bitcoins main net

reducing the mainnet daily utility means people wont use or full node bitcoin daily. its simple logic


oh and i just done a quick search on bitnodes -
your request to run the scenario out of bitnodes list of nodes..
soo i did
seen the number of nodes.. and they are listed by most recently seen
clicked the US and seen the 37 pages of listings. i went to the middle page 18

and would you guess it. half the US nodes have only been online for 6 days
https://bitnodes.io/nodes/?page=18&q=United%20States.. not weeks or months. just 6 days

heck. i checked page 37.. the longest any of its nodes were connected is 2 weeks
https://bitnodes.io/nodes/?page=37&q=United%20States

i can spot a few issues. which is why maybe best not for you to use bitnodes as a scenario(their OG age is 2weeks, thus not favouring the scenario in your favour from the start)

Segwit is in effect a block size increase in a manner that ensures older clients are still functional.

segwit allows blocks to bloat in data size but has not offered a transaction count increase
we are still bottlenecking at about 2500tx a blockmax.. ~1500average.


segwit/altnets are not BITCOIN SCALING solutions.
they are off-ramping utility to avoid the need to scale bitcoin

segwits actual purpose is a gateway tx format to allow people to use other networks. thus removing people from using bitcoin.

a solution to scale america is not to evacuate americans

scaling america is not where its made to be more expensive to live in america thus ending up in a timeshare situation where people can only afford to use america 1 day a year

in short. making america a tourist country and removing it as a citizen homeland. is not a solution to making bitcoin the best homeland for citizens
7979  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why not fix Bitcoin directly? on: July 19, 2021, 11:27:44 AM
the question assumes that there is something to fix - and i think the blockchain trilemma is not solved (even though some projects claim that, they haven't provided anything tangible - correct me if i am wrong). as long as we assume that you can't have scaling, security and decentralization in the base layer, there is nothing to fix

in short. this guy is bitten the altnet apple and saying that bitcoin is broke beyond repair so give up trying
(facepalm)

there is no technical reason to not have let onchain scale periodically from years ago.. it has all been political to stop scaling onchain.
its a human problem not an IT problem

humans that want to promote other networks as the go-to place for users
7980  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why green bitcoin mining has become a trend? on: July 19, 2021, 10:47:52 AM
it's not FUD, it's a real problem. I think those who deny this are the same people who deny global warming. Bitcoin protocol has an infinite demand for more and more energy. People like to say that banks spend more energy, but what's the difference in scale? Any honest analysis must consider the scale.

certain stat sites estimate that US 'spends' $10.7trill a year
bitcoin does about $1.05b a day $383b a year

so the scale of value is ~28x

16,500,000,000,000kwh for the us to 'spend' its money
16.5pwh a year
16,500twh a year
1,884gwh per hour(1.88twh per hour)

110exahash /110thash= 1mill s19pro asics at 3.25kwh per 110thash
3,250,000kwh per hour
3.25gwh per hour

so lets see the difference
  dollar        vs      btc
US 1884gw       btc 3.25gw
US $10.7trill     btc $383bill (10.7t is 28x more then $383b)
____________________ (divide the 1884 and 10.7 by 28 to get fiat equivalent to btc value moved cost)
US 67gw          btc 3.25gw
US $383b        btc $383b

so yea a direct comparison for fiat $1 per kw and btc value $1 per kw
the btc is actually ~20x BETTER than fiat

..
as for 'global warming'.. not all countries will get 'warming' .. thats why climate change is a better buzzword. because some countries will see a cooling effect.
as for the inner debates of causes.. yes humans caused it.. but its not only/majorly carbon as the weapon. its actually the alteration of nature to effect the water cycle thats the main factor

(less fresh water naturally flowing on land = less evaporation=less clouds= less cooling and less snow to replenish the poles
- due to (dams)reservoir hoarding. pipes, plumbing, sewers = water unable to be evaporated if its trapped out of the sun)
and yes have 5 litres in a pool(reservoir) vs 5 litres spread out as a thin puddles/streams.. the puddle/stream evaporates more then the pooled reservoir. so yes dam reservoirs actually damage the water cycle compared to just letting the streams and rivers flow over natural unpiped land
