Monero is built as a privacy first crypto. Essentially it’s like cash in many ways. You spend it in the shop and nobody knows where the cash you’re handing over came from. When you get your change at the till you know nothing about who had the cash before you that you just got handed. It’s just money.

This is all handled by a bunch of very complex cryptography. If it comes to it there are ways to prove you sent the money etc but only you have that capability to decide to share.

True enough but I feel like English has more quirks than other languages though I acknowledge that may be bias.

I used to have near fluent Irish way back when and I don’t recall any shenanigans like this (again I acknowledge I may not have been presented with them). I feel like most other languages have a more clearly defined set of pronunciation rules too.

Irish looks horrific (Siobhán is shiv-awn for example) but very very closely follows pronunciation rules so that pronunciation would be no surprise to a native reading it for the first time. English sure as fuck does not follow rules like that.

Near. Neat. Book. Boot. Etc.

(Some small subset of Irish folks do say “boo-k” though)

Perhaps. Regardless it’s outlandish abuse of the tongue IMO and definitely would benefit from the comma because nobody’s going to just bang out 4 had’s in a row in speech without a pause without a justifiable slap across the chops and possibly a challenge to a duel.

“But your honour, he said ‘had’ four times on the trot without pause”

“Case dismissed”

You’re welcome. :) Took me a minute tbh. Not sure if the wine I’ve had helped or hindered. It’s 2:30am here.

It needs a comma.

All the good faith I had had, had had no effect.

Essentially “all the food faith I previously had, didn’t have any effect”.

Good God English is an awful language.

Same. Have mine about 18 months. Never once connected to the internet. Great device.

Yeah, got some upset kids here but did manage to find a correct steam

Sorry. 200k people were on that. Scum. Everyday astronaut is the one I’m watching now.

Edit: that was some dirty link sorry

I did think that. :) It’s just… So good. I hope it never enshitifies. God help us.

For the uninitiated like me:

The Kessler syndrome (also called the Kessler effect,[1][2] collisional cascading, or ablation cascade), proposed by NASA scientists Donald J. Kessler and Burton G. Cour-Palais in 1978, is a scenario in which the density of objects in low Earth orbit (LEO) due to space pollution is numerous enough that collisions between objects could cause a cascade in which each collision generates space debris that increases the likelihood of further collisions.

Just installed. Looks great. Thank you.

Well I am delighted. €13.1B + the 1.2 in interest represents what will be a bump of 16% of total tax revenue compared to 2023 (€88B total). There are lots of things that money can be used for.

I heard about a guy once, who was a POW, and his friend wanted him to keep a watch for his son so he shoved it way up there.

The reference for the younger among us.

The segfault at the end was perfection.

Ah yeah I was only messing really. There is no reason for 90% of people to switch to Linux if they’re happy with Windows or MacOs and I say this as someone who’s solely been using Linux for nearly 20 years now.

Sure, it’s a great operating system but honestly most people just don’t…give a shit.

The path to enlightenment seems clear. All aboard the Linux train.

Choo Choo!
