" pre-loaded software on Samsung phones seems to be of a pretty major security vulnerability" This software in question is a “storage cleaner” in the “Device Care” section of the phone, which is supposed to handle file optimization and deletion. This particular application is made by a Chinese company called Qihoo 360 and can’t be removed from the phone without using ADB or having root. I doubt that it is only Samsung, it is very likely that other smartphone makers have a pre-installed app that could be considered potentially dangerous. Huawei smartphones also come with some optimizer app which has Avast as AV solution, but since it is a Chinese manufacturer, I am not so concerned with the software, but the hardware that can have some spy chip, which is not something that is easily detectable. I use Electrum on my Huawei, and I move some nice amounts of BTC in and out in recent months, so far there have been no problems or unpleasant surprises.

Who is mic? If you’re talking about the artist formerly known as micgoossens sadly he was lost in a boating accident.
Rest In Peace my old friend. Mic was a legend, a friend, a good boyfriend (of cryptoqeen), a bitcoiner and his biggest identity was that he was the most active and loved WO in the community. F**k you this El Duderino_, don't fake Mic 😘 (No Homo) By the way, finally you got your brand @Mic. I bet you were looking for El Duderino but this useless guy had it already long ago.Oh shit haha! Who is that damn imposter? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1302818

I wonder which of those orange dots was Trump's guess. I did laugh at the guess that puts Iran in Hawaii or Greenland.

Discussion of crypto's quantum vulnerability (if nothing changes) seems to be heating up... We should seek and upgrade to a quantum-resistant crypto stack in blockchain implementations and all other systems that depend on asymmetric crypto (e.g., banks, governments, etc.) as soon as possible. Quantum supremacy is inevitable — it’s just a case of when. https://cointelegraph.com/news/will-googles-quantum-supremacy-break-bitcoin-in-2020

Around two thousand Americans were recently asked to locate Iran on a map...  I wouldn't be surprised if it were only slightly behind most other populations. The majority of dots are heading in the right direction. I'd like to meet the American who believes 80 million Iranians live on Tristan da Cunha. That's a squeeze.

Ironically the Bitcoin SV account has no actual connection to Bitcoin SV. He knows fuck all about it, and is indeed a banned, multi-accounting troll. He also owns the Bitcoin Gold and Bitcoin Cash accounts but never uses them.
i like that he has a segwit donation address in his profile. great way to show his faith in bsv. IOU +sMEdIT: Thx Dude!

I was tempted to introduce them into the concept of Sats and pull out the gold kilogram vs. ounce (or gram) comparison. I didn't do it for my own sake. Would have been like teaching a turtle how to ride a donkey  I fully understand you! (I've learned that it's not healthy to assume a certain level of comprehension, especially in the "real world".) Because there's quite a chance you may have more success with the turtle... It is possible strapping turtles to horses can't strap nocoiners. #haikuThis chick I've been seeing the last few years was getting boned by her money manager and I was trying to get her to move some cash into bitcoin but didn't want to press to hard as you know if it goes down itas all my fault. Well anyway I started pressing a little harder last year when we were below 4k and she got all pissed off at me and freaked out. He borked her out of 80k since then. One year later and she's broke and borrowing money every fucking week from me. You can bring a horse to water but you can't drown him in it.

How many are troll answers? To be perfectly honest, while I consider myself pretty well informed, and I could 100% identify all mainline Middle East nations, you get up into the former Soviet "inistan"s or into central Africa and I'm going to start guessing.

I'll bet each president of the 'stans has an official Hand Guider for such occasions as they're just as confused as anyone else.
