You do find pics of some rather fetching looking ladies, V8.

What a stupid post, Ya and that theoretical guy could of ended up dead if he kept his bitcoins from a tragic accident or have been murdered.  It's the butterfly effect , you can't just play these stupid hypotheticals and assume the best possible outcome.

Aww, don't go down that road. It's closed anyway.

Old news.

My printer has only ever been connected to PCs without internet access and then only through an actual cable. If there's no ethernet cable and no wifi card there's no way to get in.

People get lazy and complacent and leave themselves vulnerable. Everything about paper wallets being the most secure form of cold storage goes out the window if you're careless about leaving images of private keys lying about.

I think print-spooler buffers have been a target for years.

Aww, don't go down that road. It's closed anyway.

Even printers are now a vector to attack your computer through. HP is releasing firmware patches for vulnerabilities in its printers.

Nope.  Some people here are reasonably well-read, old chap.  Not enough for a decent WO book club, mind.

Interesting observation from Yuval Noah Harari, found within a treatise on society's long-standing relationship with Fake News:

"You might argue that, at least in some cases, it is possible to organise people effectively through consensual agreements rather than through fictions and myths. Thus in the economic sphere, money and corporations bind people together far more effectively than any god or holy book, even though everyone knows that they are just a human convention. In the case of a holy book, a true believer would say “I believe that the book is sacred” while, in the case of the dollar, a true believer would say only that “I believe that other people believe that the dollar is valuable”. It is obvious that the dollar is just a human creation, yet people all over the world respect it. If so, why can’t humans abandon all myths and fictions, and organise themselves on the basis of consensual conventions such as the dollar?

Such conventions, however, are not clearly distinct from fiction. The difference between holy books and money, for example, is far smaller than it may seem at first sight. When most people see a dollar bill, they forget that it is just a human convention. As they see the green piece of paper with the picture of the dead white man, they see it as something valuable in and of itself. Hence in practice there is no strict division between knowing that something is just a human convention and believing that something is inherently valuable. In many cases, people are ambiguous or forgetful about this division."

Noble task. You may want to speak with 600watt before you commit.

When there is that party Somewhere @ 2022-ish @ a TOP-secret (only for coiners/WO members) location i would absolutly BE in to Co-organize the first multi trilion dollar entity party
Some small point like

There's no easy solution and personal security in cryptolandia (we talking about bitcoin, right?) remains an evolving target.

How about never using sms as 2FA.

yeah

Dunno. This is frustrating though, feels like 2014 again.

Maybe we're due a double bottom with a good hard pump straight afterwards.
