@LynAldenContact I think I just broke the world record for quickest book purchase from time of learning about it...less than a minute.

That sounds more chill than current events, actually. Some light weekend reading.

@trucku_kun @skylermzx Would be interesting to hear the Devuan devs chime in on the issue. I have used it in VMs and I would switch if they stand up against the verification crap. I'm currently using Debian.

what linux distro doesnt use systemmd and is relatively simple to use

@CryptoCloaks @BitcoinTimber Don't know if this is AI generated or not. Either way, it f'n rocks!!!

Screw your $5 wrench. We're making Axes for @BitcoinTimber!

@Beautyon_ ubiquitous mass conditioning and an overwhelming lack of personal responsibility

What are the reasons why a person appears to be incapable of understanding the basic premise of bitcoin, or is opposed to it? There are a few guesses we can make... They are Economic Illiterates. Economic illiterates don't understand the fiat money problem and don't believe that there is any problem with Central Banks creating money out of nothing. This is why the reason the "why" of why bitcoin was created is completely lost on them, and "it's just another storage system". They are Communists / Socialists. Communists and Socialists have a religious belief in the State and that the State cannot do wrong. They hold that the State is omnipotent and omniscient, and that it is not possible to replace fiat, since it is an excrescence of the State and so therefore, it is literally blasphemous to try and replace fiat, a sacrament of the State. They can make an offering to their god by polluting bitcoin with spam. They think poor people (you) are scum. This class of man, who vacations in space at a cost of $220 million (according to Grok), owns yachts worth $300 million, think that all people "dumb f***s" are beneath them and literal scum of the Earth, who would be held as disposable trash if the nuisance of laws didn't prevent them from mass culling the plebs. That this upstart gaggle of unwashed FILTH dare to challenge and successfully thwart their plan to turn Bitcoin into a Meme Machine is a gross affront to their all consuming pride. Sound money is too good for peasants. The availability of sound money to dirty, soap dodging, foul mouthed, earth-bound, grunting, Casio watch wearing ignorant plebs (you) is an abomination to the super rich. You must understand also, that once a man has money at the level that they have, what it is made of is irrelevant; they have so much of everything there is nothing they can't buy, nowhere (including into space) thye can't go, and even no government they can't corrupt. But in the Bitcoin Pleb, they find a type of person who cannot be bought, corrupted or persuaded with bread and circuses (Ordinals, Runes, Memecoins). You are a revolting slave in revolt. How dare you? Where is your RESPECT? How can you be against INNOVATION? Cultural Problems. Like it or not, people from different parts of the world bring their cultural baggage with them. "You can take the Brazilian out of Brazil, but you can't take Brazil out of the Brazilian", the saying goes in different variations. This gentleman might be psychologically incapable of understanding bitcoin, because his cultural indoctrination has made it impossible. He is a victim of the culture he was born into. There is no scenario within which he will ever understand bitcoin's purpose, because mode of thinking is closed to him, and you will remember the many other similar examples like this. There is a pattern. Recognise it. These are just some of the reasons why people might be incapable of understanding the basic premise of bitcoin, and I'm sure you can come up with your own. None of this discourse, can stop BIP110 if enough people switch to it, and if there are ethical miners out there waiting to see where the wind is blowing before they switch, this man will be forced to either capitulate or withdraw his hash from bitcoin, which will be picked up by the rest of the network. Nothing this person can say can dissuade Real Bitcoiners™ from running BIP110 and saving the network from predators. This is why the attackers have abandoned all technical arguments and are resorting to a stream of intemperate, incontinent illogic.

@Beautyon_ @TeamYouTube Dispute the subscription charge with your credit card company.

@TeamYouTube My account was terminated in error for "Community Guidelines" despite not posting public videos or given an example of the alleged violation. My appeal was rejected by a bot. More importantly, I am still being charged for my YouTube Family subscription monthly while locked out. Please help me restore access.

@BrianRoemmele Oh, boy. The DEI of nature has entered the chat. When the f*ck will we realize there's a reason that sperm is "lazy"? It shouldn't be aided.

A nanobot picks up a lazy sperm by the tail and inseminates a waiting egg with it. Not the survival of the fittest?

@GrassFedBitcoin Artix is flipping the bird to age verification too, Lunduke just reported. x.com/LundukeJournal…

@GrassFedBitcoin Devuan is actively resisting. x.com/jaromil/status…

Alright so I guess there's going to be a non-age-check fork of every single Linux distro going forward. The issue is that the big corps using Linux will continue using the cucked versions. Funny - that's exactly what happened in Bitcoin. All the large corps still use Core while the based plebs all switched to Knots/110.

@BitcoinTimber @Printful Great design! But, alas, I no longer wear plastic.

New drop. bitcointimber.com/product/bitcoi…

@CryptoCloaks Done. You guys busted my mining cherry so you'll always have a special place in my heart. Plus, weak losers need to be ridiculed and rendered feckless.

If you want to help us fight the losers and have gotten an order from us and love it. shoot us a quick review. Really helps fight the BS. g.page/r/Cdmg2KlCevD5…

I love Bitcoiners. When someone tries to tank our google reviews with fake 1 stars, all I had to ask was can you help me and leave a review of your order. Getting a bunch of reviews in. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Nice try with the fake reviews loser.

@bitcoincoreorg Go home. You're drunk.

A new release candidate of Bitcoin Core, v31.0rc1, is available for testing. This is a new major release, and follows v30.2. Work-in-progress release notes are here: github.com/bitcoin-core/b… Binaries are available here: bitcoincore.org/bin/bitcoin-co…

@elonmusk A step backwards so far. Answers are more infuriating than before. Plus, spruce up the presentation. Wide paragraphs of text are not fun to comb through.

What are your initial impressions of Grok 4.20? Major upgrades are still landing every week.

BREAKING: SQUARE TO AUTO-ENABLE BITCOIN PAYMENTS FOR MILLIONS OF SELLERS Square will auto-enable Bitcoin payments for all eligible sellers starting March 30, 2026, according to an updated Terms of Service notice sent to users. The change means millions of businesses using Square could soon begin accepting Bitcoin by default, rather than opting in manually. The rollout is part of Block’s broader push to integrate Bitcoin payments across its ecosystem, leveraging the Lightning Network for fast, low-cost transactions. Sellers will still have the option to disable the feature or automatically convert Bitcoin to USD at the point of sale. With Square powering millions of merchants globally, this marks a major step toward making Bitcoin a standard payment method in everyday commerce.

@GrassFedBitcoin @BitcoinMania___ 🫡

Remember all the "omg my grandma missed a hospital appointment because of the trucks" or "we're getting no sleep due to all the honking" Reminds me of Greg and all these losers complaining about some absurd edge case where a UTXO can be generated that's unspendable per the BIP-110 rules. I don't give a sh*t! Bitcoin isn't a network that exists for the purposes of storing junk data on other people's computers.

I watched. Giacomo holds two positions. That BIP-110 is bad and that even if it was good, it's set a negative precedent if it were to activate. The latter he elaborates on with something along the lines of "If BIP-110 activates, that'd mean *people* are in charge of Bitcoin and people are retarded - look at how they acted during COVID!" Yes, unfortunately it is that bad of an argument. Bitcoin is a dynamic system that can and must change at times in order to preserve itself. He does acknowledge this "homeostasis" argument but fails to apply context that can trivially demonstrate its harmlessness. i.e BIP-148 which had no consensus and as I keep saying, we did any way, after which Bitcoin was much better for having had it happen. At the end of the day, Bitcoin is controlled by node runners and you can be scared of populism/democratic uprisings among unwashed masses all you like, but there's no one more appropriate to have that level of influence. It's demonstrably not devs or miners. Many would like it to be - notice the ball-gargling going on with BIP-54. (Because nodes couldn't care less about it while a few devs liaise with a giant miner to get it pushed through. Murch describes this as "genuinely popular" which he contrasts with BIP-110's apparent unpopularity. The latter having only *checks notes* 7000 nodes.) If not nodes....then who? This isn't democracy which is essentially 99% of people pretending to decide what to do with 1% of people's resources getting betrayed and thus voting increasingly vindictively and causing the socialist death-spiral that just ends up gutting the middle class. This is Bitcoiners deciding what happens with *their network* and they have proven remarkably adept at maintaining it. Which isn't surprising - they have skin in the game. Not only that, but there is literally no other defence against 51% attacks (which are trivial in today's landscape), and corrupt/sloppy devs.

@paulsaladinomd @KenDBerryMD If I lambast you will you send me some bars to try?

Hey bud, in an industry where almost everything else out there is full of horrible stuff (processed sugar, seed oils, fake fats/flavors/sweeteners etc.), I hardly think making a protein bar entirely from real food that tastes amazing is "selling out." I'll have the team send you guys some to try- you gotta let me know what you think but I think you'll love them and they'll come in handy when you are on the go or traveling. I've always been a fan of steak and eggs but these don't travel well in a gym bag, or a backpack you know? Give the people something good to make their lives easier...

If you ever see me SELL OUT and start promoting my new Protein Bars, call 911, because I’ve either been kidnapped or I have a brain tumor! Eat meat/eggs/fish and work on your gullibility…

@LundukeJournal Well, that just made my OS decision a heck of a lot easier. Who knew @system76 was so full of petty limp dix?

System76 is now censoring and banning users, in their r/pop_os Reddit, for asking if the company will require age verification in their Linux Distribution (the Ubuntu-based Pop!_OS). reddit.com/r/pop_os/comme…

Fair point. But the mere act of trying to introduce anything AFTER bitcoin is not the typical shitcoin path. It's corporate greed trying to cash in and deserves ridicule. Had they gone eth first and then realized the errors of their way by replacing it with bitcoin, I'd be their loudest fan. But they went in reverse. The only conclusion is that they don't truly understand bitcoin.

@dougdevine @SteaknShake Many OG Bitcoiners went through the ‘shitcoin phase’. It’s a temporary aberration, so I cut some slack.

Ten months ago today, Steak n Shake launched its burger-to-Bitcoin transformation. Bitcoin payments are faster and saves us money! We have reinvested savings into product quality. Our Strategic Bitcoin Reserve also funds Bitcoin bonus pay for our employees. Our same-store sales have risen dramatically ever since we launched Bitcoin payments. Thank you Bitcoiners! 🧡
