Is it me or running #meshcore is significantly more power efficient than #meshtastic? I have a wismesh tag that lasts about 3 days on full charge with meshtastic but I'm only seeing a daily energy drop of 10% with meshcore!

Help me understand this #btcpayserver vulnerability. This only affected instances with lnd as the lightning backend right? So if you had a firewall blocking external access to the lnd node besides the lightning protocol port (9735 or whatever was configured for the node), then even if the node's macaroons were breached, this would not have resulted in loss of funds?

We were so fixated on quantum computing breaking public key cryptography that we didn't realise we had an entropy problem on our hands.
Signal-desktop was one I saw failing
I don't use signal-desktop. I did the upgrade yesterday. No issues so far.
Anyone updated to #NixOS 26.05 yet? Any gotchas? Saw a few issues in their forums, so have been holding off.
I run NixOS, btw. 🤓
What sort of issues? I'm looking at doing the upgrade next week.
That's what generations are for. I could always go back to a working configuration.

Why do they look like baby MODOKs?
I do use Vexl and Peach, but when you live off bitcoin that then opens a whole new conundrum of compliance issues.
First, I usually need to exchange large amounts, which are hard to find offers for.

This is the major issue with off-ramps and the solution (in my opinion) is to NOT need banks. Off-ramp solutions that allow you to pay directly for your everyday needs (no-KYC of course) is the way forward.

Going to appear very silly at first and then solve real problems 🫡
Not silly at all. Should be an available option on all nostr clients.
Back when ETH did the change to its money supply algorithm to be deflationary, a lot of people correctly pointed out that they can just change it again.
And they did, so now it's back to having a sim...
With this change, the question any rational altcoiner should be asking themselves is why would you want a knock-off Bitcoin?

This is really big, and really bad news.
The essential point seems to be that there is an argument that they *could* have exerted control. Did they actually have backdoor keys into the smart contract...
Every “upgradable” smart contract has a back door that allows the author to change the code. So it’s a fair assessment to claim that they did have control.
Yeah I'm less concerned about the NSA type threat (if they want to "do" my github account I'm sure they can), more the "uh oh because of a bug in the auth protocol or the auth app, hackers can take ov...
In deed. Those shortcuts include storing your password and 2FA TOTP in the same place. Ideally you shouldn’t but I think the real benefit of 2FA is to prevent account compromise due to password reuse.
