A bit of crypto satire

Adam Back questioned on his support of fraudulent exchange Bitfinex, starts screaming "CRAIG WRIGHT"

But honestly, this lightning shit isn’t working out as planned, the number of active channels on the lightning network is actually falling believe it or not,

I can believe it.  The concept of 'funding channels' is nothing but a vendor lock-in facilitator that's not conducive to how people want to handle their monetary affairs at a retail level.  It's something that only really belongs on the BACKEND of two exchanges doing some kind of arb.  Then the only network topology that can form in the real world is you opening a channel to a bank and having them route all your transactions from there since they will be far more connected than you are with more liquidity to each party.

tarts

Hi. American here. What's a tart? Every time I've ever heard it used in movies or TV it's always a derogatory term for female human. We have Pop Tarts.. Are they at all similar?

An open pastry case with a sweet filling.

Or a slaaaag depending on the company you keep. You can of course give a tart to a tart.

Sometimes a tart even gives a tart to a tart.

Not true. We only need some big merchants (like amazon) to connect for the LN to be useful for every retail client. Like now, there are too little sites who use LN, and they are at most experimental....so right, there are no many reasons to lock your coins as now, but that' only because the immaturity of the system.

Can also mean sour.

So I guess it's possible for a tart tart to give a tart tart to a tart tart.

Keep going.

We need to give every google translate fuckhead here a nosebleed and maybe they'll sign up for language classes.

All I know is you can't expect to wield supreme executive power just because some watery tart throws a sword at you.

Hello higher highs.
Goodby obnoxious prices.
Finally sober!

Now you're getting about half of them crispy and tasty!

(I got recharged only 2 sM so must use wisely.)
 +1 WOsMerit.

So they getting better?

They are IMHO! At times you just snap and manage to express the fact or feeling of the moment.

You didn't have to, but thanks. Just awarded Mic's haiku too.  

And uh, I have a, uh, little request for you. PM sent.

Mmmm you wanna switch avatar/HAT?

Ehmmm... not that hard to guess is it?

Quite attractive indeed, but I'm still hoping for V8 to show us what a really sexy tart looks like.

easiest overclocks (well aside from the bios stuff from the pentium II on up) was the jumpers on the 486. just pick 25,33 or 40, then select the multiplier via jumper and see if it booted. cant remember if my 386 could do that. before that there was the clock crystal replacement on the IBM AT. never tried it on mine though.

dont remember what the cpus were that you just added more L2 cache via stuffing chips in empty sockets on the mobo. 386 im guessing.

Those were 386's. You could use an 82385 cache controller chip to add L2 cache to them, but it still only ran at the backside clock speed (up to 50mhz). 486's had on-die cache that could run faster and didn't run into DMA slowdown issues like the 386.

Somewhere around here I have my Mountain accelerator board: It was an 8 bit board that plugged into an 8086 with a ribbon cable that replaced the CPU. On the board was a 12mhz 80286 CPU with 256k of 16 bit cache. What was insane was that since it plugged into the CPU and 8 bit bus, device access was at 8 bit speeds (2 clocks per word) which still made it slow as dirt.

Ah the good old days....

Indeed, no movement at all....
but as long as they need to buy- a lot of - BTC for their clients in the future, this should have a good effect on price

A few tips for vegetarian/vegan food in Tokyo


CAFETE, fairly central, Ryogoku/Asakusa
Only 13 seats. Lunch till 2 PM and coffee till 4 PM, then it closes.

Inochi no gohan Tsukifune
It is advised to reserve for vegetarian/vegan, take the Chuo line from Shinjuku (25 mins approximately)
Not too central maybe, but food and atmosphere worth the bother
