Cryptocurrency: WHO KILLED BITCOIN?!?! Another Fork Is Coming!
by professor rat 27 May '23

27 May '23

The West can act now and then in a concerted intelligent fashion - two examples - the Ozone Layer emergency and the International Crime of aggressive invasion into Ukraine. This got me thinking that IF ( huge hypothetical ) the Austro-Libertarian narratives somehow gloms onto Big Dog ( after at least one failed attempt - by REASON ) and if the leap to hyperspace is made ( not so unlikely ) the Western Powers might enlist a global coalition of the willing to ' Nationalize " Btc and emasculate it as a sort of global CBDC. Its a remote possibility - far more likely is they die trying - possibly by CYPHERPUNK 2027. But this is the only scenario whereby Big God is forked in any deeply meaningful way going forward. Its like an asymptotic force now- the power needed to break it off increases as its applied! Break-a-leg Earthly Powers. Btc is cryptoanarchist enough to replace youse. We'll worry about your obit once you're dead. TL/DR we kill the powers-that-be or we do nothing

Batshit, Semich and Gramps? It can't have been these " everyones " - two of which created a trillion in new wealth and the third - well - at least one US senator is signing up for top-down APster! Frankly if humanity doesn't deadpool the entire KGB shortly the Strong AI may as well SKYNET the lot of us. Cypherpunks collapse governments.

I knew I was sticking my neck out with CYPHERPUNK 2027 That's what cypherpunk revolutionaries do. And that's the stark contrast between me and preening, posing, posturing pretenders. ( Like Mange, Semich, Gramps, etc - you know the infamous and unholy larger CIRCLE of EUNUCHS ) " When cypherpunks are called terrorists we will be doing our job " Old cryptoanarchist proverb

The Retro Roundup twitch stream returns THIS WEEKEND. With an ULTIMATE MOTHERBOAD MOTHERLOAD UNBOXING. DON'T MISS IT. 1 oerg866 @oerg866 May 21 Here's a slightly unusual CPU: The Cyrix MII-300GP for the Socket 7! It runs at 225MHz with an FSB of 75MHz, making its name a bit deceptive - supposedly it performs as a Pentium would if it were clocked at 300MHz... But as you can see, it has trouble beating the MMX 200 🤭 28 17 4 157 oerg866 @oerg866 May 20 The EPoX 8KTA2 has a KT133 chipset, which is only capable of running at 100MHz FSB. Usually this limits you to Thunderbird class CPUs. This is an Athlon XP Barton modified to have a 20x multiplier. The CPU therefore runs at 2GHz (2400+), giving this old board a real boost! 5 10 68 oerg866 @oerg866 May 16 The cool PvE mode everyone has been looking forward to was cancelled.
