This is interesting as this blog is on a small VPS server as a Docker application with my SearxNG and Whoogle privacy search proxy Docker applications. And I have search indexing flagged as off, and its a subdomain through a…
If you’re involved with Bitcoin, you’re probably aware of the SPAM War that is underway. Bitcoin Core wants to change the limit on OP_RETURN from 80 bytes to 100,000 bytes in the soon to be released v30, in effect opening…
My biggest problem with AI was they wanted your identity to use it in the beginning, and it was pretty clear that it was a data profile builder. Also, I’ve seen results which sometimes would be decent, but usually had…

An interesting overview of a person’s X posts about Bitcoin Core and Marxist Subversion.
This is a good presentation, and there is no escaping that something weird is going on with the Bitcoin Core developers. Consequently, since switching to Bitcoin Knots which filters spam transactions from the mempool, my Bitcoin node traffic is down…
Good to not be using Docker Desktop and running Docker on Linux. Consequently, this blog is on a server in Docker along with my NGINX Proxy Manager, SearxNG and Whoogle privacy search proxies. With Docker you can do everything through…
