I switched to @GrapheneOS 4 years ago. Zero Google. Zero tracking. Zero regrets. What you get: - Disk encryption - Memory hardening - Network controls - Duress PIN that wipes everything It's free. It's easy. It changed how I think about phones. Still on stock Android? Why?

@venorusprime @LukasHozda Yes exactly

Thanks for the response! Just to make sure I am clear on what you are saying, when I enter a bid on hashpower it gets filled at the price on the bid, not lower even if there are orders being filled lower. Yes, I am tracking the risks with Ocean but I'm here for more than just pure sat returns. Plus, now that @ocean_mining is picking up a non-negligible amount of global hashrate the variance becomes less of a factor. Thanks for your work on Braiins Hashpower! It's revolutionized how I think about Bitcoin mining.

Time for a hash employer update. 🧵 TL;DR: I have been employing hashers through Braiins Hashpower since 3/21/26, a little over two months. During that time I have spent 丰24,901,768 on hash and have received 丰23,723,143 in non-KYC bitcoin giving me a return of 95.27%.

And remember that you basically cleaned some sats with a 5% fee but if you do that on Ocean, that is pplns. You are basically exposing yourself to the luck of the pool. If the pool is super lucky, you can even earn money at the same time. If the pool is super unlucky, you can even lose 20-30% of the investment.

When you set a price on hashpower, you are essentially stating the rate you want to pay. That becomes the fixed rate you will pay during delivery. If someone outbids you, your hash rate can go offline if enough people are willing to pay more for the hash rate than you. At the same time, the price does not automatically drop to the minimum possible amount needed to enter the hash rate. Instead, it stays fixed at the price you set.

@Audianer84 And a shitty privacy... have a nice $5 wrench attack :)

@turtlecute33 @giacomozucco Lo strasapevo!

Bitcoin Pizza Day is the wrong story. 10,000 BTC for two Papa John's pizzas. Everyone knows the number. Almost nobody knows what happened 12 days earlier. On May 10, 2010, Laszlo Hanyecz posted the first working GPU miner for Bitcoin on BitcoinTalk. Until that day, everyone mined on CPUs. GPUs were orders of magnitude faster. By December 2010, Bitcoin's total hashrate had jumped 130,000%. Laszlo's wallet received over 81,000 BTC between April and November 2010, almost all of it from his own GPU rigs. 10,000 coins sounds like a fortune. For Laszlo in 2010, it was about a week of mining. He didn't stop there. Laszlo later admitted he spent close to 100,000 BTC that year. Pizza, random stuff, more pizza. The reason matters. Satoshi had messaged him privately, saying GPU mining was bad for the network. Fair distribution needed CPUs. Centralizing hashrate broke the design. Laszlo agreed. He said he felt guilty for "crapping up the project". So he cashed out. Not into fiat. Into anything that wasn't BTC. Pizza was a convenient target. The most famous transaction in Bitcoin history wasn't a guy who didn't get it. It was a mining pioneer apologizing for his own breakthrough, paid in the coins his invention let him mine. This Friday, when the pizza memes start, remember the second story.

@knightseek True :)

@turtlecute33 Is this genuinely true ? Or some BS story (not the Papa Johns pizza and payment, rsther everything else) ?

@ADHD_Options @RichLassiterMD Not every, but 20 to 30% is quite possible.

@turtlecute33 @RichLassiterMD I didn’t know this part of the story. Was he basically getting every block reward at that time ?

@BitcoinGambit Not that much imo

@turtlecute33 BTC hashpower appears to be centralized now no?

@decentmoney2009 @danielabrozzoni Imagine being scolded by Satoshi, ahahaha

@turtlecute33 @danielabrozzoni Thanks for this didn’t realise Laszlo was such a chad Deserves more recognition

@oldGamerJ Niche knowledge for a niche crowd 🍕

@turtlecute33 It will be 1% of people who know BTC who will know this fact, which will be 1% of the Earth's population, which will be 10e-100% of the universe... but thanks for sharing <3

@obscuravpn Twitter, girlfriend, pissing beer in Bitcoin Prague bath 🤯

How did you find out about Obscura?

@hronir @marttimalmi @Tempopersoh The Android application is a low-quality, super sloppy AI. The idea is good, but it essentially uses a Nostr relay as a VPN, which you can already do right now (potentially). This app just makes the process more automatic and easier.

@marttimalmi @Tempopersoh your thoughts, @turtlecute33?

New version of Nostr VPN is out. Like tailscale, but no email addresses or 3rd party accounts, just public keys. New: * native multiplatform user interfaces * Nostr-based multihop routing (FIPS protocol) — very useful when NAT holepunching fails * improved network management UX

Things AI tools (Claude, ChatGPT, Grok) are great at right now: - the 20 minute task at work you do every single day - summarizing the 40 page document nobody read - building small scripts or tools to make your life easier Stop trying to force AI into everything. It's the best assistant you've ever had. Not your dev team, not your decision maker.

@danielabrozzoni @BitcareForum Pippo?

Breaking news: PIPPO IS BACK Ma questa volta deve andare dal dottore... È una lunga storia... @BitcareForum, 23 maggio, palco rosso, 11:10, si parla di privacy 🩷

@MilkstachePM Seems utopian...

@turtlecute33 Or we could stop using corporate apps and build our own 🤔

Things GrapheneOS does that should be illegal not to do: - Revoke the Network permission per-app - Revoke the Sensors permission per-app - Storage & Contact Scopes (lie to apps about your data) - Hardened app runtime by default Why is this not the baseline.

@sav_sz Accelerometer, rotation, all these kinds of things, they could be used to track some more data about how you use the phone and as far as I know only Graphene allows you to disable them

@turtlecute33 What are even sensors? Accelerometer and light sensors?

@cobain_eduardo I'm not sure about it. It would reduce a lot the anonymity set that you have, the compatibility with apps and things like that

@turtlecute33 We need a total hardware/software alternative to android/ios.

@louisminguey It would be usless...

@turtlecute33 Until I see an OS that allows you to monitor and manage (allow/block/delay) every single port on your phone I'm not impressed.

@_Uomo_Qualunque Ahahaa what's the feature that is helping you the most?

@turtlecute33 Since switching to GrapheneOS a month ago, my mental health has been improving day by day.
