Edit: I replaced an edited youtube compilation of this talk with a link to the original NSA press release. It links to the original digital copies of the talk in two parts.

Here is the original link: NSA Releases Internal 1982 Lecture by Computing Pioneer Rear Admiral Grace Hopper

I guess so. I just don’t see where they’re going with it.

Well my understanding is that visa, MasterCard ECT. Are far more efficient in terms of energy and transaction time when compared to Bitcoin and Ether. Visa uses about a quarter of the power per 100,000 transactions.

So I would assume that would mean fewer data center computers to cool and therefore less water used per transaction

Fair enough. Although if you are interested all of their messaging bridges are available on their GitHub if you would like to self host them with your own matrix server. That way you don't have to worry about them decrypting and reencrypting your messages.

I recommend getting beeper it's similar to sunbird although it is paid but they do open source all of their back end infrastructure. Beeper is essentially just a matrix client for a bunch of different chat service bridges.

Honestly when I first read that I just assumed that ChimeraOS decided to go in an new direction. Also it's not like ChimeraOS is some small super niche distro it seems relatively popular.
