let's rephrase it. letting a corpo put ai agent on your pc is bad. putting ai agent on your pc is good though, because you select an (uncensored) model and use it privately, gaining expertise in the process. you'll need that expertise to fight ai driven propaganda machine of the future

money gives you freedom, but as long as political system is broken, that freedom will be treatened. broken political system feeds people who will be working to enslave other people, and that includes you and your children. sure, right now you have very good idea how to escape their control. what about your grandchildren? are you absolutely sure there is absolutely nothing the abusive ellites will be able to do as time goes towards infinity that does not treaten it? if not, than ignoring issues with the political system is bas couse of action.
you don't have to do it alone, but we must acknowledge the problems and formulate and refine the solutions untill we have a whitepaper of a new system without abuseable vurnerabilities. simply saying fuck you just feeds the leaches

ok. so the way I understand it, there is cryptographic possibility to hide individual's amounts but have the sum of amounts be computable anyway. monero doesn't make it a priority though. you keep making this argument. does it mean, that if they implement a method to compute total supply, you'll do 180° on monero?

first of all, no amount of compliance is going to stop governments from coming after bitcoin when they figure out, how. you are not risking anything by non compliance.
second of all, before v30, people already could put whatever stuff on the blockchain if they could afford it, no change here either. in fact, as far as i'm aware, btc chain already contains "illegal" information, and if you wanted to protest it, you are a decade too late.
and third point is that i'm not neccessarily "for" the ability to put anything but financial information on the blockchain, but since it exists, as far as i'm concerned, this ability is a part of consensus and noone has made a good argument, why it should be removed. honestly, btc ecosystem has issues much more relevant to me, than this

2025-10-02 19:41:23 UTC

- reply

look. i see where you are coming from, but from where I am, what this looks like is complacency. bottom line is that as far as international consensus is concerned and as far as the law goes in every single country on earth, monetary self souvernty and capital protection against confiscation by inflation are illegal. it does not really matter, if you somehow make it more "illegal". governments are coming after bitcoin in the same manner as for every other freedom you have. glacially slow and deliberate

here are my 5 cents. first of all, government complience is not goal for bitcoin development. second of all, correct me if i'm wrong, but increased size of op return does not increase total max block size. if aomeone has use for that space and is willing to pay for it, so be it, let's not make good the enemy of the perfect

looking into this muself. i have a rather beefy pc with 512g of ram, a30 and 96 cpus, and here is something that i've learned by playing with other models: most large models don't fit into memory of a single gpu, so you will have to buy several high end gpus, or you will have to run the model in ram using cpus. the cpu option is inexpensive compared to several a100's, but I haven't found a way to run it smoothly on a desktop (zen kernel is still laggy as hell), and the response is slower than that of a gpu by an order of magnitude. personally, for me either of these things is a deal killer. Another option is you.com, they will probably introduce the model soon, but than, it's just another corpo.
what worries me about gpt and llama models way more than the privavy consideration, are biases in the training set and training to lie or refuse answers on some "sensitive" topics
