@thomasfuchs @Pschiller the upside here is that this news will hopefully make more people understand that when you use an Apple device, you do not own that device. Apple owns it. Apple owns you. They decide what you can and cannot do. You have no privacy, not from them. They can view everything on your device if they want to, it's all closed-source that only they control.

The proper solution is for people to stop using Apple devices, and start using #FreeSoftware operating systems. #foss #floss

@Monerotopia hi, I'll try to join today hoping to talk about my paper about an idea to handle increased transaction rates:

"Ticket-based multi-strand method for increased efficiency in proof-of-work based blockchains":

https://arxiv.org/abs/2405.09531

Hoping for feedback from some developers or other people who know a lot about the scaling issues. #monero #blockchain #cryptocurrency #scaling

> 203,3 miljarder USD

> 21 miljard $

Kan nog vara så att den större siffran är intäkter (totala mängden pengar in) och den mindre siffran är vinst (intäkter minus utgifter).

Vill man ha en siffra till kan man titta på börsvärdet ("market cap") som jag tror är uppe över två tusen miljarder USD nu. Jag tänkte skriva alla nollorna men är rädd att det inte får plats pga teckenbegränsningen här 😅

Det läskiga är att de troligen kommer växa ännu mer pga sitt monopol.

Mojeek is an interesting one that is independent, they build their own index built using their own crawler, not relying on any of the big ones.

@helenaviking nähä, varför säger du så?

@jwildeboer I like C.

@nixCraft wow, the Sovereign Tech Fund is awesome! Germany leads the way, other countries should follow.

It would be very interesting to hear from some #monero folks what they think about parallel chains (connected via "tickets" as outlined in my paper or some other way) as a way to increase transaction rates to handle Visa/Mastecard level of transaction volumes, ping @Monerotopia @MoneroTalk @hyc @vinibarbosa

I just wrote this paper:

"Ticket-based multi-strand method for increased efficiency in proof-of-work based blockchains": https://arxiv.org/abs/2405.09531

What do you think?

@hehemrin toppen, tack!

@hehemrin om du är där och kan skriva till henne, hälsa gärna Annie Lööf från mig att hon borde publicera det hon har att säga på en riktig webbsida/blogg eller annan öppen plattform istället för på Fb.

@DefendDemocracy is that available somewhere other than youtube (Google)?

@chloe@chadthundercock.com tried to divide by zero? I think it's overreacting, It should just print NaN and let you off with a warning. At least for a first offence 😃

@clacke I see what you mean, but I was not here a decade ago. For me, to find myself a decade ago I would need to go into platforms that shall not be named and where I now refuse to go. It's like I kind of lost touch with my historic self. "Oh him, he's so weird, we don't talk anymore" 🙂

@Karinkvittrar mm kanske till och med segla iväg mot horisonten, som Hattifnattarna? 🙂

@lilithsaintcrow I agree, it's terrible.

For me, when a text or an image is shown to me, if I read it or look at it then I do that because I believe it's a communication from another human being. If I believe it's made by a machine then I'm not interested in reading it or looking at it, I'm, just disgusted and offended that someone would push that crap at me, it's a waste of my time at best.. It's all fraud, trying to fake human communication. I think what's happening is really dangerous.
