Hi stashers. Solo dev from Switzerland here. Since February I run kashilo.com, a classifieds site (think Craigslist / Kleinanzeigen) built for people who want to buy and sell real goods with Monero and without handing over an identity. What it does today: No email, no phone, no name. Your account…

is there actually a point to learning new things right now? taking a gap year because i have no idea what to learn, or if it will even matter by the time i am done. feels like studying for a world that is already gone. dad was a programmer and did startups. i liked coding in school and thought that…

just listened to The Sovereign Individual (audiobook, because i am NOT a book person and adhd makes sitting still with pages feel impossible). still hit me harder than almost anything. the whole idea of actually finding sovereignty and freedom while this world keeps turning into a totalitarian…

Thanks @Aillia for creating this space. It's great to have a ~Library and share common reads, make commentaries and learn together. Here I want to share a book that came up recently in https://stasher.news/items/339194/r/artemis and I read some time ago: Stealth of Nations by Robert Neuwirth an…

First week of sn and here are some things I learned. I noticed myself spending more and more time on stasher.news lately, as this is one of the most refreshing sites I have found, and I would like to share what I have learned after hanging around for a while - sharing is caring. Starting with The…

For whatever reason when I got into Monero I set up annual wallets. Initially to avoid all my XMR being drained in 1 bad tx or a single wallet exploit. For each wallet (2017, 2018, 2019 etc) I have a coin tracker (currently livecoinwatch) and I just put all Monero bought in 2018 into a wallet then…

First published July 5, 2018 Came across this essay on the internets, hope it educates you the reader as much as it educated me. I admit I used to believe in Bitcoin. I was one of its most naïve and vehement apologists to friends, family members, and complete strangers (online). This was all before…

I've been moving around, and one of the issues I always found, whatever place I land, is ordering stuff and getting it delivered without disclosing personal information. I've seen this https://stasher.news/items/339626/r/artemis posted today, and it made me want to ask stashers if they have any…

Some countries are requiring that you verify your ID before you can play GTA 6. I also find it interesting that this is all coming out with the PlayStation moving away from physical media. You will own nothing and be happy vibes...

In my quest to investigate the rising RAM and storage prices, as I am looking to upgrade my workstation and build a NAS with plenty of storage for backups and media, I've been researching, ironically with AI, the market prices, the current and forecasted trends, and the news surrounding these…

I'm not a big music person (by music I mean a subset of "sounds" set), but I love/can appreciate powerful lyrics. All of Tom MacDonald , yes. And also this one by Oliver Anthony. Oliver Anthony "Rich Men North Of Richmond" I've been sellin' my soul, workin' all day Overtime hours for bullshit pay…

I put a small UPS on the flex mining/main ops PC. Not because mining has to run 24/7 no matter what; but a dirty blip is worse than a clean stop on the mothership. This UPS is a smooth sine wave. Cheap UPS units fake that on battery with a stepped / simulated wave. A lot of modern PC power supplies…
