      It's been so long since the last top. Although there are small rallies, they all revert back. Why are you still in the game? submitted by /u/AoideusWasBanned [link] [comments]
    • New plan for Keyrotation October 14, 2026
      I wanted to rotate my BTC keys and made a post (https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1phbgrk/generating\_and\_storing\_a\_btc\_private\_key/) but that seemed a bit too complex. People also suggested that 2/3-multisig is better approach than to split a single seed. My current plan is: There are a few goals to achieve: Redundancy Plausible Deniability against Wrench Attacks Simplicity Robustness against idiosyncratic failures […]

      Ethical principles that bitcoin was initiated on, exemplifies the goodwill and the true benevolent intention of the founder. The immaculate conception of the bitcoin protocol can be interpreted as a one time incident, most probably, if you observe the timeline of this coordinated effort led by a pseudonymous Satoshi Nakamoto, in retaliation of the existing […]
    • The gap between "store of value" marketing and actually using crypto as peer-to-peer money October 14, 2026
      Whenever I try to introduce friends to the original Satoshi idea of using peer-to-peer digital cash for simple everyday settlements (splitting dinner, paying someone back), the friction always becomes the sticking point. Explaining fee markets, channel liquidity, routing failures, or waiting multiple confirmations usually ends with them just asking for my PayPal or cash. What […]

Microsoft Kills the Kinect Adapter for Xbox One

Microsoft has discontinued the Kinect Adapter, effectively killing the already-pretty-dead Kinect peripheral. The Kinect Adapter is the USB accessory required to connect a Kinect to the Xbox One S, Xbox One X, or a Windows PC. So if you want one, you had better buy one while stocks last. The Kinect was originally released in… read more »

Facebook Kills the Ticker Showing Friends’ Activities

Facebook appears to have killed the Ticker, which previously showed you what your friends were doing on the social network in real time. Facebook is well known for changing things up on a regular basis, but the killing of the Ticker is odd in that there’s been no official announcement. The Algorithmic Timeline Ticks Off… read more »

Apple Kills the iPod Nano and iPod Shuffle

The iPod is no more, with Apple discontinuing both the Nano and Shuffle. That leaves the iPod Touch as the only Apple device now sporting the iPod name. And we all know that’s more than just a standalone music player. And with that another piece of tech falls to the mighty smartphone. Technology evolves at… read more »

Google Kills Instant Search Because Everybody Uses Smartphones

Google is killing Instant Search, which rendered search results in realtime as you typed. The problem, according to Google, is we all now do most of our searching on smartphones, and Instant Search makes no sense on smartphones. So killing the feature is the only sensible option. Google introduced Instant Search in 2010, with then-vice… read more »

Google Finally Kills Google Talk After 12 Years

Google is retiring Google Talk, also known as Google Chat, after 12 long years of service. The company is urging Talk users to switch to Hangouts rather than the combination of Duo and Allo. Which suggests that Google still has one (or seven) too many messaging/chat apps on its books. Back in 2005, before WhatsApp,… read more »

YouTube Kills Annotations Because Everyone Hates Them

YouTube is killing annotations in favor of End Screens and Cards. There are several reasons for making this change, but the main one seems to be that everyone hates annotations. Or, as YouTube rather more diplomatically put it, “viewers generally don’t love annotations”. Annotations, for those not familiar, are those boxes that pop up randomly… read more »
