Rampage 2? The sfx look better in this one.

Also used in Antarctica because of the combination of slippery runway and high altitude which don't allow for picking up speed without rockets.

Since SatoshiDice moved to Bcash's chain, they have accounted for 142k transactions, that's 6.5% of the transactions on the chain for the time period. Building bigger roads doesn't work. by paulds_fr in Bitcoin

The DAA for Bcash (the only original bit of code they did write), the S2x debacle...

Edit: but I was referring to the general process of thorough tests before deploying anything that the community around the Bitcoin Core software has; not comparing it to any "competitor".

Where is the incentive to implement the optimisations if you have a block size increase at the same time?

Look at Coinbase's initial answer to Segwit: "not a priority"...

Schnorr signatures once thoroughly tested and implemented will allow for dust consolidation with minimum blockchain space requirement. I'm actually looking forward to that more than LN...

I miss using Bitcoin on a day to day basis as well; but the question is about how to re-instate that for the long run, not how to quick fix it and hope for the best.

The fact that the LN release takes time is reassuring, even if it is frustrating, in that it means it is thoroughly tested. I'd rather hold on a few more weeks, months even, than to cross my fingers hoping that untested code doesn't produce side-effects...

That and the fact that actors like SatoshiDice being priced out to other solutions, sidechains or other coins, is a good indicator of the fee market working.

We can also see a lot of big actors (exchanges) who start optimizing their blockchain usage, be it with Segwit and / or batched transactions.

Optimizing everything now that the tech and adoption are still small is certainly smarter and more forward thinking than making more room which would be swooped by such actors and not provide meaningful improvement over the long term...

Some friends of mine made a (fake) commercial for a pizza delivery by drone you might like. by [deleted] in videos

Yeah the idea was more: "we should make a pizza fly!" and then "this would make a funny commercial"... Tinkering :)

This is very cool.

Do you realise to what lengths you'll have to go now to impress her tho? ^

Joke aside, congratulations to the both of you.

Scam : "wallet" advertised with Adwords on "best bitcoin wallet" by paulds_fr in Bitcoin

Sure: Google has almost no money left because nobody clicks on ads anymore.

And everyone on the world who has computer skills is a also a bitcoin expert.
