The 2028 election will set a modern record for the number of independent presidential voters. Democrats will have fumbled their 2-year governing window right after the Republicans fumbled theirs.

Every proposed attempt to safeguard “lost” or “old” Bitcoin against quantum threats is unserious.
Insolite: Un dev de Bitcoin Core vient de proposer une idée assez maligne et drôle contre la menace quantique.
Au lieu de geler les vieux BTC, il veut piéger les voleurs.
Petit rappel du problème : un ordi quantique pourrait retrouver la clé des vieux wallets exposés, environ 7 millions de BTC. Une fois la clé en main, le voleur signe exactement comme le propriétaire. Le réseau ne ferait alors pas la différence.
La proposition de Cory Fields : pour déplacer un de ces vieux BTC il faudrait d’abord bloquer la même somme en caution pendant quelques semaines.
Pendant ce délai, le vrai propriétaire pourrait sortir une preuve qu’il a cachée à l’avance. S’il le fait, il garde ses BTC et il récupère en plus la caution du voleur.
Le voleur ne sait donc jamais si le wallet qu’il attaque est piégé. Chaque tentative peut lui coûter son propre argent.
Forcément des limites : ça ne marche que si tu as encore tes clés. Les BTC perdus et ceux de Satoshi, resteraient exposés. Et pour l’instant ce n’est qu’une proposition sur la liste de discussion des devs. Puis il faut donc avoir des bitcoins pour libérer ses propres bitcoins… bref semble compliqué mais l’angle : ajoutons un risque à l’attaquant, m’a fait rire

We could get rid of this with a single transferable vote system, but people elect career politicians who will never let that happen. We’ve got to start voting our conscience and stop pretending we can vote “strategically.”

No politician (of any party) can solve inflation as long as there is a money printer that expands the money supply.
The Utah County Commissioners could have been worse, but 56,505 people really saw David Spencer and thought, “Oh good! A tenured Orem city councilman. Someone who really knows how to make for a crappy experience commuting. Just what we need.”

Friends, @SenJohnCurtis has asked me to tell you that even though he supported Trump attacking Iran, voted against a resolution to end the war, voted to balloon the national debut, and voted against ending tariffs... he wants us to return to our principled conservative values.
After the Biden era, Americans wanted an economy that worked for them. Instead, they received a hastily executed war, headline after headline of scandals, a ballooning $40 trillion debt, and unpredictable tariffs.
It’s time for Republicans to return to the principled conservative values that once defined us—and that we've steadily abandoned over the last decade.
The national debt will not be fixed. The best you can do is prepare yourself for the grueling years of inflation that “fix” it.
However, if we’re gonna print money, why not spend it on developing infrastructure? High speed rail network, anyone?

I'm a very happy user of obscura VPN and can definitely recommend it.
it's very cool: uses mullvad as an exit node, and obscura's own servers as a blind relay. obscura doesn't know where you're going, mullvad doesn't know where you're coming from.
I can use it at full speed, no noticeable impact. accepts bitcoin. probably the ideal VPN.

Straight Republican ticket

I love how most of the arguments for cars are: cars are freedom, how else could I spend so much time, money, and taxes on something that lets me go fast?
