@liaizon When Moxie explained at 36c3 that he does not believe in decentralization, he was sharply criticised by many. After that, people gave up trying to change his mind.

It’s really unfortunate that Mantel was such a great writer and Mark Rylance such a great actor, because you end up going very far on the journey with him until you catch yourself wondering how just justified a lot away…
Did help that he broke acting by the sheer cuteness of Marlinspike:

Oy vermek, sahip olduğumuz gerçek etki gücünün eksikliğini maskelemek için tasarlanmış anlamsız seçeneklerden ibaret olmadığını düşünseniz bile, bu denklemin diğer tarafında muazzam miktarda para, güç ve etki vardır. Bu yüzden sadece oy vermekle veya dilekçe vermekle yetinmeyin.

Whittaker is CEO.
So are we talking about Matthew Rosenfeld, or his self-proclaimed anarchist alter-ego Moxie Marlinspike?

In 2016, Signal founder Moxie Marlinspike claimed in the ecosystem is moving that federated systems, and email in particular, can fundamentally not do end-to-end encryption

The Seven Crystal Balls was the first book to be published after Red Rackham's Treasure, the book which introduced two staples of Tintin:
1) Captain Haddock living at Marlinspike Hall
2) Professor Calculus
Pretty much every subsequent Tintin book contains one, the other or both.

composed music by Jed Cutler to tell the story, along with Fergus’ unique voice.
This is what you can listen to, if you so desire. I think this is best heard through decent speakers or a good pair of headphones for maximum impact.

you can use it to split twisted rope for tying, to unpick knots, and for leverage to tighten rope beyond what you can do by just tugging on the rope with your hands, by attaching it with a knot called a marlinspike hitch
this, of course, raises the question of why it's called a marlinspike

like, it was used to catch marlins somehow
nope, turns out it's the other way around; best anyone can tell, the fish was named because its … snout? bill? I don't think it's a beak … resembles the marlinspike
the marlinspike is a long blunt-tipped metal cone used for managing knots

rope skills is zilch; I only learned like four knots in Scouts back in the day, and one of them was the hangman's noose
(autocorrect tried to make that "moose")
so it finally dawned on me to find out what a marlinspike is, assuming that it had something to do with the fish

It was really annoying because he’s like “you gotta get rid of all the knives” and like I just didn’t have it in me to be like “dude, it’s a pair of water pump pliers, a pen, a marlinspike, and stick I poke stuff with”
Also I accidentally came back in with a neck knife and a puuko still on me 😖

the place was known as Marlinspike Hall. There was a seperate roof mini-apartment occupied by a mysterious Fijian couple. They came and went via the back gate.

I struggle to see any reason to run Marlinspike. I can see some use for it alongside like Map I guess but really the counter to this shit is "just don't bodyblock lol." Legit they could make it so the grabbed survivor gets Houndsense again and with the exception of addons (Map) nothing would change.

There’s considerably more to Signal than Pete Hegseth using it (badly) to violate a half-dozen laws. Read up on Moxie Marlinspike and the history of how Signal came to be. Thanks!!

Got Neptune’s Crown finished after the one I made last year went missing.
I hope Neptune is proud of his humble servant making his crown.
