LufyCZ, 8 months ago to programmer_humor in When you forget to set a boundary conditions in your logic

I feel attacked because you attacked my integrity instead of trying to have a useful conversation.

That’s fine though, people are scared of things they don’t understand, that’s a well known fact.

Have fun falling behind

no safe guards

That’s the point.jpg

You’re free to hold your crypto on an exchange, you’re free to buy a hardware wallet and do your due diligence when confirming transactions, you’re free to create a multisig for your coins and tokens to introduce multiple factors for signing.

But it’s your choice.

people dying, losing keys

That’s on them, it’s like stuffing money into a mattress and not telling your family.

mining coins are destined to die

Mining’s not great for sure, but “destined to die” makes no sense.

Inflation is necessary so that people spend the thing

That’s kinda funny, because in the case of Ethereum, the deflation comes from people using and spending Eth on gas.

I’m also not saying that Ethereum is the perfect currency to replace fiat, the utility there comes from everything that’s built on top of it.

Widen your horizon, crypto isn’t just a medium for payments.

It’s a problem that’s being solved. Bitcoin will probably suck in this regard forever, but Ethereum for example has migrated over to a much environmentally friendlier system.

Growing pains, but I think that we’re on a good path going forward.

It may seem like it, but it sure isn’t like it. You’ll obviously hear about the bad and nothing about 5he good, unfortunately that’s how media works nowadays.

Do you want to elaborate on those issues that are unacceptable and unfixable? I’m not saying there aren’t any, but you’re describing a trade-off, and crypto isn’t the only thing in the world with trade-offs.

Fiat is a great example - conveniet, nice, until it starts hyperinflating, until people use it to fund wars, until the government confiscates it because you insulted a politician on Twitter.

LufyCZ, 8 months ago (edited 6 months ago) to selfhosted in How would you build a GPU-heavy node?

Often the mining rigs use just 1-4 pcie lanes (per GPU), because more isn’t required for mining and it saves on other costs

They will never sue users, you can not prove the user doesn’t own the corresponding Blueray, etc.

That, and it’d completely destroy the company, like in an instant, gone.

LufyCZ, 9 months ago to privacyguides in Most private crypto wallet?

Ah, sorry, thought you were talking about ETH-style onchain DEXed. All good then!

In this specific instance, sure, but overall, my bet is on them meaning actual fraud.

LufyCZ, 10 months ago to privacyguides in Google forced to reveal users' search histories in Colorado court ruling

From my personal lemmy experience, a lot of people would consider it actual (legal) fraud that’s just not being prosecuted because the perpetrator/s are wealthy.

LufyCZ, 1 year ago to asklemmy in I need to survive for 3 days without pooping, and eating as little as possible. I can pee, but not very often. It can't take up too much space. What food do I pack?

But he said that he’d make the whole trip twice and that he’d be able to poop the second time
