I swear to God, the idea that two different things can be true at once seems to be too much for people to handle nowadays

🚨 COMIENZA EL APAGÓN MUNDIAL DE PLAYSTATION 🚨
🔥🎮 La comunidad acaba de iniciar el #PSBlackout: 7 días enteros sin encender la consola, sin iniciar sesión en PSN y sin gastar un solo euro en la tienda.
🗣️ ¿El motivo? La decisión de Sony de matar el formato físico para 2028 y decir que "no somos dueños de lo que compramos".
🤔 ¿Te unes a la huelga o crees que a Sony le da exactamente igual? 👇🧵
#Playstation #PS5

JUST IN: Boston is reportedly considering “noise cameras” that detect excessively loud cars, capture their license plates, & issue fines by mail.
People like this guy are going to have a pretty heavy conscience if things don't turn out as planned.
At the very least it's reckless, at the most it will ruin people's lives.
The downside of not doing what he says is almost non existent.
The downside of doing what he says and shit going sideways is immense.
Many things don't matter anymore.
The value of your investment portfolio is irrelevant. Invest in what will make the world better.
Retirement savings won't be needed. Spend money to make your life better today.
Education won't get you a job because there will be no jobs. Learn what interests you and what will be useful in your life.
Money won't matter. Family and friendships will always matter. Spend time on relationships.
You don't need to save the world. AI will save the world. Work on being a good person.

My thoughts on BIP-110 and the "anti-Ordinals movement" that will attempt to fork the Bitcoin network in August 🧵
The greatest threat to Bitcoin is neither Ordinals nor Runes
It is the pervasive and dangerous ideology that took hold after the Blocksize Wars that using Bitcoin L1 is bad
Starting in 2017 a bunch of lunatics in the "Lightning ecosystem" hijacked Bitcoin and psyoped everyone into believing that making transactions on Bitcoin L1 was somehow immoral and harming children in El Salvador
Fast forward nearly a decade and here are some of the downstream effects of telling everyone to stop using Bitcoin L1
A catastrophic amount of time and resources were wasted building a now obsolete and failed "Lightning Network"
Bitcoin has now been infiltrated by feds and bankers who have normalized not only paper Bitcoin but Ponzi scheme treasury company versions of paper Bitcoin
When you joined Bitcoin a decade ago you were taught how to self-custody
When you join Bitcoin today many of the top "leaders" tell you to buy pump and dump Bitcoin proxy scams trading anywhere from 2x to 100x NAV
The vast majority of "Bitcoin maxis" have never even used Bitcoin L1 and are technically illiterate having no idea what a UTXO is
The biggest joke of all is that discouraging people from using Bitcoin L1 created the low-fee environment which allowed the data storage use case to take root
It is laughable that BIP-110 claims "data storage competes unfairly with payments"
You can transfer billions of dollars of value on Bitcoin L1 in roughly 200 bytes yet Bitcoin maxis failed so badly at creating demand for block space that it became economically viable for artists to store 4 megabyte JPEGs while competing fairly in the exact same fee market
BIP-110 is by far the least cypherpunk proposal by the least cypherpunk group of people in the history of Bitcoin
They have completely lost the plot
Instead of coming to terms with the consequences of their own decisions they are attempting to introduce radical levels of censorship to a network whose entire value proposition is censorship resistance
There are no words to describe how fragile someone's ego must be to blame artists for using a low-fee environment created by your own reckless decisions
It is not a coincidence that 67.9% of all Bitcoin transactions this week were Ordinals and Runes
While the Bitcoin maxi movement is completely going off the rails
We are the ones who actually use the Bitcoin network
We are the ones who secure the Bitcoin network by paying fees
We are the ones who understand the Bitcoin network at the deepest technical level
We are the ones who denominate in Bitcoin and actually use Bitcoin as money every single day
We are the ones who self-custody our Bitcoin and carry on the ethos of "not your keys not your coins"
We are the real Bitcoin maxis now
There is nothing more cypherpunk than running your own node and ripping some JPEGs onto a censorship-resistant network regardless of how unpopular it is
Satoshi's first act on Bitcoin was to inscribe data
We are simply carrying on the torch
Because the prior Bitcoin maxis have failed so miserably the Ordinals and Runes enjoyers have become the new Bitcoin maxis
We will make self-custody cool again
We will make experimenting on Bitcoin fun again
We will get people to use Bitcoin as a medium of exchange again
We will educate people and make Bitcoiners technically literate again
We will secure Bitcoin by creating a robust fee market and high demand for blockspace again
We will purge Bitcoin of the feds and bankers who have infected it like a disease and that starts with defeating the BIP-110 fork in August
I am calling on all $DOG soldiers, all Ordinals enjoyers, and all Runes degens to band together and fight against this BIP-110 cancer that is hell-bent on destroying the Bitcoin that we know and love
If you are against BIP-110 and agree that Bitcoin should remain censorship resistant show your support by quote posting this with "Defend permissionless blockspace. Reject BIP-110." and be sure to repost all quote posts
Long live Bitcoin
Long live Ordinals and Runes

A new angle shows Gabriel PULLING Pablo's arm into his own goalkeeper to create the foul that won Arsenal the Premier League 🤝💪

People have learned a few psychological buzzwords on social media,like "gaslighting," "narcissist," "boundaries," and "toxic", and now they use them to run away from normal human conflict. Sometimes your partner isn't a "toxic narcissist violating your boundaries"; sometimes they are just annoyed, having a bad day, and you are actually the one who was wrong. We have weaponized therapy language to ensure we never have to apologize or compromise.

Shaky first half, but what a response 👏
Donnarumma made a mistake early on… but came back with a top-class second half. 🧤🔥
Big saves, strong presence, and showed real character. 💪🏻

Your Netflix "4K" stream and a 4K disc put the same number of pixels on your screen. But the disc version of a two-hour movie is about 70 gigabytes. The stream is about 14. Same pixels, roughly five times less data filling them.
You see it first in dark scenes. The stream doesn't have enough data to tell dark grey from black, so your TV just mashes it all into chunky blocks. Then you notice sunsets looking like a paint-by-numbers, with visible stripes where smooth color should be. Film grain is probably the biggest casualty. Directors add that slightly textured look on purpose to make movies feel cinematic. Streaming compression reads it as noise and wipes it. That's where the weirdly plastic, waxy look on a good OLED comes from.
One comparison I can't stop thinking about. A regular 1080p Blu-ray (the older HD format, not even 4K) pushes about 40 megabits of data per second to fill 2 million pixels. A 4K stream pushes 15-25 to fill 8 million pixels. Four times the pixels. Less data. A plain HD disc from 2008 can look sharper than a brand new 4K stream.
Sound is worse. Netflix sends "Dolby Atmos" audio at about 768 kilobits per second, compressed, with parts of the original permanently deleted. A disc sends TrueHD Atmos at up to 18,000, lossless, nothing removed. Up to 23x more sound data. If dialogue sounds flat when you're streaming, that's not your speakers.
Netflix is getting better at this. As of late 2025, 30% of their streaming runs on a newer compression method called AV1, the same picture at a third less data. They also strip film grain out before compressing, then rebuild it on your TV during playback. Saves over a third on file size for most content, and up to two-thirds for really grainy movies. The rebuilt grain looks solid.
The tradeoff won't go away, though. Netflix has to deliver a file that works over spotty rural Wi-Fi and gigabit fiber, adjusting quality frame by frame to whatever your connection can handle. A disc reads plastic. Same quality every time.
