https://librewolf.net/ Removes FF enshittification

Fml here is correct link https://librewolf.net/

No. FF is hopelessly enshittified. The only way to fix it is to strip out all the telemetry/AI/adware and preinstall good adblock. The result is called LibreWolf and is the browser you *thought* you were supposed to get with FF

... and to Hamas

Milton did not do a rigorous analysis -- he was speaking off the cuff. With many more decades of data it is clear that a literal handful of notable failures are offset by hundreds-not-dozens of successes. Libertarians are like (and very often are) the Dunning-Kruger champs, listening to one fringe theory and putting fingers in ears when conflicting data comes to light.

Have you met seriously religious people. Like the ones currently running the USA?

I agree with you on AI But without Monero it would be a lot harder to buy drugs on the darkweb and I do value that

This is a faith-based administration. Evidence and science are for eggheads, see? Cuffy Meigs and his gang are in change now

Yep! If they really want to increase security, a relatively tiny yearly fund for OpenWRT security red/blue teaming would help homes businesses and I bet lots of military too

The more decentralized mining is, the harder the 51% attack

Therefore, you want mining that is about as efficient on a current CPU as it is on a high end GPU or even ASIC. That way big server farm investments scale up with a low integer factor -- compared to a Bitcoin ASIC farm which can be (IIRC) dozens of millions of times more efficient per dollar than your PC CPU.

Various strategies were considered and tested. The end result was really clever: create a simple virtual machine with specific characteristics (such as non-halting totality, and a syntaxless bytecode). The one-way function is simply to run the random input program to completion, and provide the output. In other words, be a CPU.

The algo was specifically released as a separate standalone so others could pick it up. But there is only one crypto that uses it. It's the one that actually encrypts the data on the blockchain, has hundreds of .onion nodes run to this day independently by true believers (and yes I am one), so that actually it would be really hard for even a major government to shut down its untraceable transactions.

I just checked, for the first time in probably 2 years. Huh. It's not even in the top 25 market cap anymore. But it's the only coin that IMO for better or worse matches the original Tim May style cryptoanarchist vision that Satoshi was gesturing towards. And I don't need to say its name because you know which one it is.

Actually people like that are why Slashdot is still kicking in the age of Reddit and Fedi. I am here for my fellow nerds and await the day my particular hyperspecialization becomes newsworthy

meh missed making link about prisoner exchange

Hackernews Aug 12 2025 on the Salesforce hack: Cybercrime Groups ShinyHunters, Scattered Spider Join Forces in Extortion Attacks on Businesses

I bet anything China, Russia, and Iran are those so-called cybercrime groups. Check this BlackHat talk about catching the (at the time) biggest ever card fraud guy. Russian oligarch son. Guess what, he was one of those returned to Russia in an exchange with the Trump admin as part of "peace negotiations".

Cyberattacks are part of the low level war they are also waging via dragging anchors to cut Internet cables, throwing drones and jets into NATO airspace, and ofc disinformation campaigns.

So yeah they are leveraging the cybercrime aspect to further weaken USA / NATO / The West / Tolerant Inclusive Democracy.

Probably a free stater. They do love their pedos

Honest truth: restructuring based on changing business. We did the same thing when Cloud happened. And two decades earlier when the Internet happened.
