IIRC, bitcoin ATMs do not set up wallets for you.

You still need to create a wallet, key, etc. and that is not easy to do for beginners without an exchange like Kraken. Most DNMs use temporary addresses so it's not a good idea to try to transfer directly from a bitcon ATM to a DNM.

I didn't say Monero is KYC.

I also didn't say you transfer directly into Kraken. Instead, you would use at least 1 or 2 other wallets before transferring into Kraken, because that bypasses their scanning.

Kraken is still cheaper while doing that than paying a 10% fee for an ATM.

It doesn't matter if Monero is used with KYC - transactions are obfuscated.

That means the transactions can't be traced to your KYC wallet on Kraken, meaning you're spending 10% on an ATM for no reason.

>then you set things up incorrectly IMO

That's precisely the problem with crypto though - most problems get blamed on the user, and not highlighted as the deficit it is for the crypto.

Aren't Monero transactions completely obscured anyways?

It doesn't make a difference if you using a Bitcoin ATM or transfer to your Kraken account (except a 10% fee for the former).

>That’s funny, I wondered why Amazon order emailed sucked so hard lately. Thought it was just them being dumb.

It's the opposite.

Amazon wants you to click back into the store to buy things. One way to do that is forcing you to view orders in the store instead of your email inbox. They care more about that than Google seeing your purchase history.

I can almost guarantee Amazon dropped the item details from their emails in order to get you to click back into the store.

That's fair but for people without HSA they should still file a claim against maximum out of pocket.

I thought the lists were a red herring for the problems with privatized healthcare - i.e. look at how complicated pricing is, not how it is being complicated by for-profit middlemen.

>the adapters are large enough that there are only 4 but also small enough that making a 2x USB A adapter would be quite challenging.

This was my thought as well, but they're planning on doing more interfaces than what they're listing now, so it may be they went for universibility with the size.

Also USB-A is going to slowly die off anyways, so I doubt it's good to build the dongle standard to two USB-As.

This assumes that all projects should be built with the larger scope in mind.

Sometimes you just need a shovel, not a Bagger 288.

Which takes quite a bit of time and hasn't been proven possible yet. Very different from an on-demand poison pill.
