Update 07 March, 2024

I found this great app which I believe is powered by AI or something:

The areas surrounding modern day Ayr were known to have been occupied by Mesolithic hunter-gathers more than 5,000 years ago. There is also a Neolithic standing stone at the end of Stonefield Park in Doonfoot, which is believed to have been upended as a place of sun worship by Stone Age people.

So Ayr must be a bunch of sun-worshippers somewhere in Scotland, if I’m reading that correctly?

Great start to 2024! From here it can only get better. Loved the Spaces recording. Great guest who put the importance of what the SafeNet is about to do in simple terms from his own experience. Good stuff!

Edit: Thrilled to catch this down the bottom:

I did a search but am not finding what I am looking for.

Not too long ago there was some discussion on dbl spend and penalty.

If memory serves correctly, an attempted double spend results in you losing your coins.

Interested in where we are at with that?

I think so too, but as we know things move fast. Ironic statement considering the 18th birthday :laughing:

If it is the case, I’d like to have a go at losing some coins!

I think we need to clarify the extent to which a node operator is anonymous and that they all have ip’s.

I had terrible audio for a bit but if I think that Bux may have given the impression that nodes cannot be identified, did I follow correctly?

Didn’t want to comment incase I got it wrong.

Its that Maidsafe or any other company cannot remove nodes because they have no record of who is even using the network or running a node. I doubt Bux realises yet that IP address can lead an observer who has the means (ie court order) to identify the one using that IP

And of course if one uses a nominally no log VPN then that info is not kept beyond technical needs

In AU your contacted IP addresses are stored by the ISP (govn reg) for 2 years. So many use a VPN so that the record only shows a shared VPN server. Talking to an ISP’s higher up staff and they fought to limit the government to 2 years and made the government pay for it too. He said it was way too expensive to record IP, with time stamp, volume, etc for every packet. They remove the data as soon as they can.

Safe will cause overload when people don’t use VPNs LOL

Going to need some beefy vpn providers. I am considering upgrading my line to 2 or even 5Gbps, I suspect staying anonymous may have a bottleneck.

Mine has no issues with 450Mb/s down and I pay just the going price.
