I literally switched to Racoon because of that post. Is it a community project now, and if so, link?

Yeah, that feels like a really weird choice.

There is one "inherent use" (if I'm understanding that term correctly) of bitcoin, and that's to pay for space in blocks. Again, that only gives bitcoin value if people want to use bitcoin, so take that as you will.

So... That isn't exactly true. You're correct that there's a limit to the total and circulating number of coins, but if the world suddenly decides 1 BTC = US$0, it doesn't matter if there are less coins tomorrow than today. Both days, each coin is still worth zero.

All that to say, there's no guarantee that a bitcoin's value will increase over time.

That's "Chemical X" which is fine.

Cocaine. Jesus fuck. I'm not particularly angry with you, OP, just at the trend of advertiser friendly self-censoring that's making its way into the fediverse.

One critical benefit of the rubber duck is that it doesn't make things up.

You obviously haven't seen me rubber duck debug.

I don't believe it does, but I could be wrong!

 

The House of Commons is days from passing Bill S-210, a dangerously broad age verification bill that would put an age lock on most of Canada's Internet and threaten every Canadian’s privacy.
