The great Hunter S. Thompson born on this day in 1937: "I drink much less than most people think, and I think much more than most people would believe. I am quite sincere about some of the things that people take very lightly, and almost insultingly unconcerned about some of the things which most people take seriously. In short, I am basically antisocial: certainly not to an alarming degree, but just more so than I appear to be."

Labour, Tories, Lib Dems and Greens: I demand you stand down in Clacton. I will be a unity candidate and pledge to build at least one affordable house. Nigel Farage says he wants The People versus the Establishment. So be it. Leave him to me.

Warren Buffett said: "It took Noah 20 years to build an ark. And people said he was being silly because the skies were beautiful. And of course, the whole time, he looked stupid - until it started raining. You can spend a long time building an ark while everybody else is out there enjoying the sun."

Here we go again: rehearsing a major hardfork on testnet 10, this time crescendoing into Toccata Activation is scheduled for tomorrow May 18, 16:00 UTC. Existing TN10 miners/operators should upgrade now. In a few hours upgraded p2p nodes will stop connecting to non-upgraded nodes as we enter the 24h pre-activation window. Let’s make the mainnet activation boring by making the TN10 rehearsal as mainnet-real-world as possible
The Toccata hardfork stack is now ready, and we’re entering the final stage before mainnet activation: a full hardfork activation on Testnet-10. The scheduled activation point is: May 18, 2026, 16:00 UTC DAA Score: 467_579_632 Everyone is welcome to join and mine on testnet, so we can verify the transition works fine before mainnet activation. I wrote detailed instructions for joining as a testnet miner (Link in reply)

I doesn't matter what narrative we try to put on kaspa, it is what it is, whatever that is. Narratives build over cause and effect, what reality actually occurs. A dag should be able to hold more than a few narratives, unlike a linear chain. Push whatever. #kaspa $kas

I'm all for shifting focus from marveling at the tech to realistic usage vectors, this is a long overdue shift in the discussion +1
