Interesting, makes a lot of sense to me as far as pricing too. However, I feel the video demonstration could greatly improve in terms of explaining and enthusiasm. It's super cool though and presentations/demos should showcase the full potential!


I feel SF is just difficult to live in for people not making ridiculous tech salaries or have enough wealth to afford it there. You can enjoy life in any city if you make 100k+, and some people that do will still complain about being poor ...


What if it is an authoritarian government that enacts national laws for the purpose of censorship?


Companies themselves are authoritarian organizations that enact international policies for the purpose of extracting wealth from a local population. Countries that have skin in the game for their own geography are the least of your worries, they are optimizing locally. Meddlers without skin in the game are more problematic.


When did youtube , or any big tech not comply with local laws in authoritarian countries? Never, their position is not one of activism it's "I'm OK with that"

They already do, and Google complies with those laws. See China. It is quite telling that Google seems to put more effort into complying with the CCP than German law, however.


Sounds like a made up story for the purpose of self promotion to me


I wish that were the case.

Unfortunately, while still rare, there are physical attacks perpetrated against bitcoin owners. I've been tracking them for several years. https://github.com/jlopp/physical-bitcoin-attacks


Didn’t you read about the part where Casa’s MultiSig easily protected him from financial ruin though!? I hear it’s better than having all your money at CoinBase.

Plus there was the hard hitting advice that “always have a friend who knows all your plans check in with you, to make sure a crime organization isn’t plotting to steal your money”.


Perhaps they meant to say that Volvo's strategy has been focusing on electric designs after 2019.

But yea, guess you can't expect journalists to be too focused on the specifics and facts these days.


I would be skeptical about this, the EU is great at speaking loudly with a tiny stick


Sadly both platforms are practicing censorship and are being run by people that think they are best suited to distinguish between good and evil. Reality is usually not black and white, which is why it is sad to see many platforms these days pushing strict narratives.


Welp, time to block softwareupdated and stick with Catalina for a while


AFAIK it the '--ignore' flag works no longer so I would be very happy if your share with us how to do it.


I just blocked all network connections for softwareupdated so it can't check for updates.


Why can't you just say you don't know...


I would think most people agree that political bias is rampant in the media? Who is even claiming it is a conspiracy theory?
