Hmm. Now is probably a good time to add excessive entropy to everything you do.

First question many people will have is, how does this signature secure the transaction. Well, right now - it doesn't. But remember that the entire premise of distributed ledgers like Dogecoin is consensus. Think about it in the other direction. Someone could build a Dogecoin client that accepted spends without any of the present-day cryptographic checks as well - but transactions made by that variety of client wouldn't be accepted by the majority of the network (lack of consensus), and would not be valid. The same goes for a PQC signature; essentially it would be a UASF where the majority of the nodes on the network decided that a valid signature like this must check out before a transaction is accepted as valid. It wouldn't require an overhaul; just agreement on the majority of the network that the post-quantum signature attached to the transaction has to be valid for the transaction to be valid. If Falcon-512 works as it should, that portion could not be spoofed, cracked, or manipulated by quantum systems; the PQC shared/consensus proof validation would not pass. Not saying this is the final answer, but that work is ongoing.

Ok. I'm not going to go into this more than once, since it's absolutely ridiculous and has been crazy talk for years. Since the (absolutely weak) supposition of "lack of response is suspicious" in recent published "fan fictions" 1) Yes, I've run the SecondLife furry community Luskwood for 21 years, and still do. Luskwood is PG-rated, and does not permit adult content. Being one of the only NON adult furry areas on SL is what we're known for. Yep, a lot of that goes on in many furry communities. Luskwood does not exist to service that demographic. 2) Yes, "ScentualLust" aka (apparently - 'pimpuigi', I didn't know him under that name at all) frequented MANY furry communities, including Luskwood, and for years was a "hanger on" trying to get close to the administration of both of the communities I run (Luskwood and Trotsdale.) 3) I considered Scentual/"Pimpuigi" to be *personally, a stalker of mine*, as he was continually pushing unwanted sexual overtures at me. Most of my interactions were at a screaming volume and telling him I wanted nothing to do with his fetishes and fantasies. But *he was infatuated with my character online*. 4) I have NO idea what he did or did not do with people of various ages. I was not "interactive" with his sexual trysts - his (ex?) wife seemed upset, often, with his obsession with my character and did purport that he did some 'bad stuff' with underage people. I have NO IDEA if this actually happened, and certainly wasn't even marginally participatory in it. 5) In regards to his ex and her claim that I engaged in misconduct with her: I simply did not. I met her briefly once after being invited to meet their pets, who they were travelling with. During this meeting, they made efforts to engage me in a level of interaction I was very uncomfortable with, as these were two people I was not very close with. After this, and then having to witness an argument between the two of them for about 20 minutes, I took the first opportunity I had to excuse myself and leave. The entire meeting was deeply uncomfortable and I frankly had no desire to stay. 6) Hundreds of people who know me, know that Scentual/ "pimpuigi" was someone I had a hard time tolerating, was often repulsed by, and kept at arms length. Whatever he did in his personal life, I was not looped in on, and did not want to be looped in on. 7) John Inubook and friends are using this "association makes for suspicious questions" appearance out of convenience. But it is outright, slander and defamatory. And that CAN be proven. The more people try to "investigate" these occurrences the more they'll find out I was not involved in any of them, and these people are taking a risk by putting down on 'paper' accusations that are completely and utterly false. All based on gossip, and people with strong ulterior motives. 8) Yes, I'm trans. For many years, I've been afraid to come out - because of Elon's feelings on it, and much of the cryptosphere. Some of the reasons here are on display on social media. (Supposing LGBTQ people 'go after kids' is almost a trope, and a well worn go-to. And it's BS.) 9) My ONLY focus in working with the Dogecoin Foundation is furthering technical developments on LibDogecoin and RadioDoge. (and soon dashb0rd and Core Greenfields Experimental.) I do not have any stake in or interest in validation methods, or business deals. (Nor have I received ANY payments from corporate partners. If their stock goes up, I get ... nothing.) I consider it a vector that I can use to further community ecosystem projects and that's all. 10) The "dogecoin" main has not been 'only me' for quite a long time. For a while, it was. It has not "changed hands", but we use Buffer, and a LOT of other groups do too. I have always been open about wanting community people to give me leads to post on the dogecoin main. It seems to not happen. But all anyone has to do is ask, and if its pertinent to dogecoin and not meant to 'stir drama', I'd be happy to forward it. Please. Send community leads and posts. 11) I absolutely believe that Dogecoin needs to stay consensus-based, open-source, not controlled by central entities. The way I look at is, if the Foundation does something people like, they'll go with it. If they don't, they won't. That's why I feel any attempts on PoS are iffy and not much to worry about. Consensus has to change that. A group cannot force that. (And shouldn't.) I am personally ambivalent about a validation (PoS vs PoW) change, but I do believe that PoW has become overly centralized over the years, and ALL cryptos may need a solution down the line. But not soon, and not urgently. And as I've said, PoS is not "definitely" the answer. 12) I also believe that the ecosystem needs to be backed and built, and that some people working full time trying to expand the ecosystem is beneficial and not 'centralizing'. It just allows them to dedicate more life and time to it, which needs to happen if dogecoin acceptance is going to spread. I'm always open to talk about dogecoin's direction, and want to be open on the matter; but as far as the allegations discussed above, I will NOT be entertaining replies, and I will NOT be speaking further on the matter. These suppositions and allegations lodged at me are absolutely and categorically false. I'm tired of remaining quiet and being chased out of these spaces due to made up fantasies that 'sound lecherous and juicy'. They're wholly incorrect, and that's all I have to say on the matter. But I do understand it's much more fun and much more exciting to believe the soap opera, even if it's fiction. And make no mistake, it is fiction.

Really good to see some UI/UX polish being put on this and configuration organization. Thanks @inevitable360 for working on this. It should all be available in the repo soon. Eventually the goal is for #RadioDoge to be easy to set up and use ad-hoc like this.

To everyone messaging me "i can promot ur projeckt" ... Here's my project. In the western hemisphere, autumn is rapidly approaching. In the summer, we see young entrepreneurs putting up lemonade stands, for passers-by to cool off, while these kids engage in their first business venture. I propose as the weather gets colder, young aspiring business-larvae should consider a franchise: the beef gravy stand. Nothing warms your innards when trudging to pick up your seasonal affect medication than stopping on a street corner and taking in a hot, steaming cup of gravy. Bemittened youngins proudly dispensing into Styrofoam(TM) cups from a huge hot electric urn, run by a portable generator to the side. Earn some holiday money AND build cherished memories. There's a business opportunity here. Promoters, send your reels.

gotta admit that 'who's up at the crack of Don' post by the @litecoin intern sent me, and has inspired me going forward. However much everything after that will seem like a cheap imitation. Certain things should be enshrined, and I need to give credit where credit is due.

get rich quick tip: add butter, and possibly cheese. sorry, finance bros, the answer was right in front of me all along.

please consider my qualifications as your next Corporate Strategic Goth Officer.

Some people have enough money to make problems just go away. These people, I get it when they 'get into the fray'. But most of us don't have the stamina, the 'cut of their jib', or the war chest to impose our will on the world. I have absolutely no interest in tossing my 2c in to the current argument du jour. When it comes to Dogecoin, consensus is going to rule. Validation methods frankly do not interest me one bit. I'm not a whale, so PoS won't benefit me. I'm not a miner, so PoW won't benefit me. The free exchange and use though, I can get behind. Because that -is- the core 'make the world better' rationale for crypto, if one remains. All this focus on profit/payout methods for validators and I guess the whole 'detached from controlling powers that be' (Governments and the like - not iNteRneT PeRsoNaLitieS..) part takes a back seat. No matter how much screaming and gnashing of teeth happens though, consensus will win in the end. What ends up working best and benefitting the most (or most passionate?) people will win in the end. Do I know what "side" that'll be? Hell no. Not at all. But I do feel people should vote by doing, not vote by screaming and stabbing. Now, when it comes to politics? No opinion? No, Not so much, but these days it feels like no, you can't change anything unless you become a powerful person yourself. And damn, that sounds absolutely exhausting. Someday someone will study the rise of the 'cortisol junkies'; who thrive on conflict, stress, anger, and harm. I guess some of us haven't evolved to be able to handle that, and maybe we're behind. Maybe so. I don't think any of this is going to be decided or solved on social media though. But have fun trying, I guess. I suppose the battle is a whole lot of fun for a lot folks.

💜🖤🤍🖤💜 you know who you are. More to come, and still lots of good in the world.

So, running a #dogecoin node most days is just set and forget. But if you are running one, it's important to keep up with updates. 1.14.9 was released two weeks ago. We had lots of uptake, but the update was also ignored by a considerable amount of node operators who figured they knew better. Community movement is a critical component in distributed and decentralized networks. Developers can do the thing, but then the community has to accept or reject it. (This is why previous FUD about algorithm changes being 'forced' are completely ludicrous.) The numbers being talked about, while sensational, aren't wholly accurate. But this should send a message that if you're running a node full time, you need to keep it updated. Hopefully the result of this is folks actually updating. In the future I'll try to help by being louder about releases; but my megaphone and platform is tiny.. Updating the network should not rely on social media popularity. So stay informed by subscribing to GitHub notifications; but don't wait for your fave influencer to tell you if it's important. That's voluntary centralization. Yeah I know I know; Ideals are almost never attained. But if you run a node, pay attention to releases. That's all.

Just so everyone is aware. This is an AI bot that writes "stuff" you ask it to, and it isn't something anyone should use as a source. In this case the bot describes RadioDoge .... incorrectly. while using a few relevant words. RadioDoge is a terrestrial network - for now.
