The Librem 5 is a phone built on open-source operating system ( puri.sm/products/librem-5/ ), shipping starting next week. https://social.librem.one/@purism/102740815257018934

I'm really looking forward to this device coming out. It nailed the feature checklist for me.

I'm feeling grateful that I can spend this rainy day #coding at home, with #ShadowTheCat. 😻

Nice setup!

I'm in Novorossiysk. One day, two nights and 50 bucks away from Moscow.

Now that is someplace I've never been!

I know of a young boy who keeps his money in a DeFi wallet and is earning interest via compound.finance. To him, this is completely normal and boring. He doesn't grok the thousand year journey to get to this point. Good for him, trusting bankers and states is so antiquated.

I'm in Moscow. And some topiary: https://youtu.be/GjbBMOchYXc https://d.tube/#!/v/tete-steem/u5pr119h9j9

Been too long since I visited Moskva.

Wow, and to think I paid for my education like a schmuck!

I've got a personal goal never to open another financial account that requires KYC. Beyond that, every time I close out an existing account, I throw a little party for myself.

Our brains appear to be wired to not focus on glassy buildings. Could be the reason why this Boston neighborhood feels soulless: https://geneticsofdesign.com/2019/07/27/how-bostons-glassy-seaport-fails/

Perhaps this is why the tan, earthy buildings in Malta look so appealing.

MetaMask is now my go to wallet, Coinbase Wallet was literally draining my address with high fees to send my tokens. Almost had my tokens stuck in a address. It’s good that metamask lets you choose the gas fees.

I agree, metamask is suprisingly nice!

Currently fulfilling the crowdfunding rewards, then launching facelifted Peepeth 2. No claim to full decentralization, but data is pinned on Infura and by whoever wishes to pin it.

Trying to imagine how dApps like this could migrate to being fully decentralized. Perhaps if signing actions could also include a pinning fee, which could use something like filecoin to pay for IPFS hosting automagically. Of course, the infrastructure isn't ready yet.

Jul 22, 2019 12:23

Is there a Peepeth dev roadmap published anywhere? As much as I love this platform, it's not truly decentralized as long as the core content is hosted on Peepeth's IPFS servers. Would love to know if there are any plans to use Swarm or Filecoin?

Jul 21, 2019 13:07

Replying to @Bevan (0x30755d3e65c0cf46c35b72d11e52d941c5fc3a3e)

Good question. The blockchain back-end can't be moderated, but the front-end can be, just like any other site. The difference being that there's an immutable public record not controlled by peepeth.com.

If Peepeth's metadata is stored on ipfs, I assume that someone is hosting it in a charitable fashion? How could things like filecoin or swarm decentralize the model even further?

If anyone is on crypto twitter too, you're definitely bombarded with charts, most of which are not analyzed by "professionals". Has anyone found a really good twitter analyst who doesn't do nonsense yet?

Most are trash, but I do like @krugermacro

WhatsApp discovers 'targeted' surveillance attack. https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-48262681

Thanks for posting, this is the first article I've seen that actually gets into the exploit details. Buffer overflow in WhatsApp's VOIP stack. Still curious about the "targeted" attack statement.

#PSA Peeps are public and potentially forever. They could be used against you by competitors, frenemies, governments, future grand kids and your mother. Be mindful and think of future you.

Alternate strategy, erase the "future you". Use multiple, fictional identities. Avoid doing any type of KYC wherever possible. Keep building tools and commerce systems that don't ask barbaric questions like "Where do you live" or "What's your phone number".

Taking advantage is beneficial so long as it is sustainable. Income inequity is unsustainable and is leading to a surge of violent populism worldwide. As non wage-based alternatives become more prevalent, giving workers real choice, what you're saying will become more true

If it's really a choice is between violence and theft. I choose violence.

May 03, 2019 13:03

Opinion. "apps" built on Tron/EOS are not really dApps. By definition, you can't build a dApp on a non-decentralized platform. ETH v2, ADA and a few other projects are trying to do this right. Invest wisely, we're playing a long game here.

Yesterday saw a speaker say «Nobody cares about a decentralized Twitter». My question for you today is: why do you #peep?

To prove that speaker wrong.

Is Dash diverging from Nakamoto consensus?

Yes, mining isn't going away, but they are going to start leveraging their layer 2 network (which is far more decentralized than a few mining pools) to participate in validation. https://cryptobriefing.com/chainlocks-dash-network/

Mar 31, 2019 14:01

EOS, TRON, etc. I just can't get into these platforms that employ cheap shortcuts to scale. Saying BTC mining pools are also centralized is just a weak excuse. Sooner or later someone is going to get it right. ETH 2.0, DASH, ADA are all contenders here.

Watched Aquaman. Was quite surprised that the Russians in the opening scene weren't portrayed as bloodthirsty criminals (A common theme in US media). If you're a young Russian/slavic kid trying figuring out your place in the world, this shit is important.

The highest level of meta-anarchy is when the realization strikes, that you already exist in anarchy. Stop fighting a state, just opt out. This old and long out of print book was a good guide. https://www.amazon.com/PT-Stress-free-Properous-Government-Interference/dp/090661924

Time to give the Brave browser another shot at replacing Chrome.

Meh, it's great, except that I can no longer sync between browsers. Once they add that feature back in I will commit.

At least at the present, I refuse to live in, associate with, or pay taxes to any nation-state that supports the development of nuclear weapons for itself or 3rd parties. I'll still drink and flirt with attractive ladies however. #ethics

Dec 10, 2018 14:29

Reality check for fellow $BCH investors. If consumer and merchant adoption are the goal, at some point you must realize that solely relying on Nakamato consensus is raging dumpster fire. Might I humbly suggest you consider $DASH?

Nov 15, 2018 18:54

@rogerkver is dedicated to advancing liberty and takes a lot arrows for it. You don't have to agree with his investment choices, but not recognizing him as a "good actor" is failing an ethics and IQ test simultaneously. https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=3&v=rFU1o-0oU7A

If you had to trust a smart contract to distribute funds to your heirs a century from now, which blockchain platform would you chose?

Oct 17, 2018 13:14

Is anyone else terrified of having spelling / grammar mistakes recorded for all time on an immutable platform?

Oct 13, 2018 13:24

My advice to anyone thinking about building on-chain governance. Don't over engineer it and try to solve every conceivable shortcoming. Keep it simple. The free market will solve the edge cases, if you don't make it hard for them. $DASH $ADA

Oct 11, 2018 16:40

Plenty of $ETH lovers on Twitter that aren't using Peepeth yet. I'm going to start calling you out. Let's start using our platform.

$BCH and $DASH are probably the most pro-liberty / AnCap / Anarchist blockchain communities out there. If you promote one while calling the other a "scam", that says more about you being greedy person than anything else.

Oct 04, 2018 19:43

Experimenting with Peepeth. People have mentioned how dApp adoption is slow going. Let's get this train moving!
