I’m almost afraid to ask… what’s a “hodl”?

Yeah just...you don't want to get involved 😂

Bitcoin fanatics are usually proud libertarians. And as far as I can tell, proud libertarians are pretty much just republicans who like drugs, so... I'm not surprised there's overlap in pronoun/mask opinions.

😂😂

@aaronpk What's innovative about their discovery?

It’s nothing particularly unique itself, but it’s not something that’s been done on voice platforms before. It’s like overlaying a social network on top of conference calls.

I don't really understand why people are talking about Clubhouse at all. Has their use case not already been long solved by Teamspeak, Mumble, Discord, Zoom, Skype, Jitsi and so on?

The voice technology itself isn’t a challenge. The social features are where they are innovating (discovery, being able to listen as well as participate in calls, etc)

Hey @aaronpk, I bought a USB-C to Type C Cable, USB 3.1 Type C Gen 2 cable, and I THINK this has solved the issue.

I'm about to go live on my test/live channel to see how it looks. Seems to be fine during my internal testing.

oh cool! I will tune in!

It honestly feels like an important step towards saving the planet is to either carry out a successful 51% attack against Bitcoin or work some kind of cryptographic flaw into Bitcoin core and break the whole thing that way

Look y'all in the mentions down there, if this is how you react to a couple jokes about bitcoin, you might want to take a moment of self-reflection to get to the bottom of your underlying insecurities. This is not a healthy response and I am concerned for you.

Most DISTURBING thing ever seen - 8 years of @YouTube, channel gone, nearly 500 videos gone, subs report channel disappeared from feeds, and so on...

Working with @TeamYouTube in DMs - hoping gets sorted soon.

omg how did I miss this the other day! That's terrible, I hope you get it sorted out soon!

wow TIL don't tweet about B*tcoin or the fanboys come out in droves

also I had no idea how much overlap there was between bitcoin fanboys and people who don't like pronouns in bios and don't believe in wearing masks 🤯

I woke up to hundreds of mentions calling me poor this morning, so I’m glad this website is free

They found me too. I can only imagine how much of that you got, I'm sorry!

Oh the *depths* to which we have sunk!
I mean you could always chew on coffee beans with cold tap water, hoping your body heat will be sufficient to warm it up... 😱

You know... chocolate covered coffee beans are a thing, so maybe resorting to eating plain coffee beans isn't the worst idea

the power went out at 6am with no indication of when it'll be back, so I hand ground some coffee beans and will now find out if you can make french press coffee with hot tap water

Update: it made a liquid that is the color of coffee!

I think this is the move. Luke warm water to make coffee is usually quite disappointing mud water.

My theory was the lukewarm water would make the cold press process go faster..?

Also I don't wanna wait 12 hours for my first coffee of the day 😭

At this point I just instablock anyone who shows up in my mentions with the name of any coin or crypto* in their profile. If they self-ID with it then nothing good happens.

I kinda want to automate that now...

I think you will find the Bitcoin fanboys are more than willing to debate/discuss with anyone who has some valid criticism of Bitcoin.

I'm sure there are some completely reasonable people willing to discuss it. However those are not the people in my mentions right now 🙄

Bitcoin people also really don't like it when you have pronouns in your bio

...or wear a mask

I think you misspelled scamcoin! Considering it is all a ponzi scheme: create from thin air, convince others to buy, let them convince others to buy, repeat like a pyramid and the first who enters and exits, wins, rest need to keep on convincing otherwise they won’t profit….

Pretty much. Look at the replies to my last tweet, it's a mess down there
