@arh NFTs are a brilliant solution to a common problem

@jk it's funny, every time i explain to people why NFTs exist their head explodes and they wonder why they didn't realize it sooner

probably one of the main things that twitter users love is to complain about NFTs every single day for months and months, creating a large unintentional guerilla advertising campaign, drawing attention to and permanently cementing the idea of them into the culture of the internet as a compelling, relevant heel character, and ensuring their survival and widespread adoption

27 years of needing the v4 ip and neither ifconfig nor iproute2 can give a single command that will give it bare, still gotta force people to pipe to sed and awk and other bullshit (and of course iproute2 has to put /mask on the end so you need two awks).

@jb55 you can use them from apps on phones, those computers that everyone uses primarily these days. it's pretty simple really

yaml contains such a tremendous number of footguns it isn't even funny

@staticvoidmaine trezor is a hardware device used for storing keys, not a wallet.

you can't get the ethereum signer or bitcoin signer "app" on to a ledger nano s without downloading it into the device first with ledger's spyware desktop app.

this thing is useless out of the box if you're unwilling to run spyware on your computer.

@surfingalot i only had to use a hacksaw on one part and only in a direction away from the motherboard and i put plastic over the board while i did it, the chance of that having been an issue is ~0

@mastodon @jessica@mk.absturztau.be plus, keyboards have to be low latency, so even if they are perfectly encrypted, they're still vulnerable to traffic analysis due to inter-key timings and english letter frequencies

mycrypto, jaxx, exodus - all of these phone home to the developers immediately on launch. why are there no privacy-focused ethereum wallets?

@jessica@mk.absturztau.be i can't imagine typing a password into a device that is designed to transmit my password via radio waves in all directions

One guess as to why the UX is worse on a console is because they're expecting a more sophisticated userbase than the more widespread userbase of websites and smartphones: builtformars.com/case-studies/

what are the best desktop ethereum wallets that don't phone-home? every one i've tried so far is some slickass electron bullshit that immediately connects to microsoft, the developers, etherscan, and a bunch of other bullshit.

@surfingalot some literal hacking (with a hacksaw) and now the 3090 is installed and the system's nvme has been zeroized and win10pro is now installing
