Does it make more sense if you view the Democratic Party as controlled opposition?


The Hulk can clap as a ranged attack, and as propulsion within an atmosphere.


Tor is overkill for streaming and it burdens the network.


You’re vastly overestimating the benefit of youth in computing these days. It was more of a Gen X / Millennial phenomenon because computers were widespread but difficult to use. Like car guys in the preceding generations.
Going forward, there will be as many young people good at computers as there are young people good at cars. Not many, but enough to keep computer science moving forward.


They’ll care if they get stabbed!


Who the hell doesn’t know how to build a guillotine? It’s a knife hanging from a rope with guides on the sides. If you wanted to make a nice artsy one, you could just have one guided side.

This unironically for every business. Force them to pay us for peace.


A properly done hanging isn’t torture.


I like it for making a quick crappy version of something, so then they’ll tell me the double secret requirements, and then I write the real version.


Nano uses “proof of stake” instead of proof of work to decide the order of transactions, and who receives block rewards.
The main problem with PoS is that it’s essentially the same as Federal Reserve bonds: all the new money goes towards people with extra money to freeze. This is part of why inequality has spiraled out of control since the Nixon Shock. Proof of work literally burns most of the profits because of difficulty adjustment.
A more specific problem with Nano (formerly RaiBlocks) is that the entire supply was centrally issued, with a pinky promise from this private organization that they only issued coins by CAPTCHA. If they were lying, then they could have issued 51% of the supply to themselves for permanent control. The only way we’d be able to detect it is if the price kept going down for years.


Looking at the shape it’s taken so far, do you really think you’ll be included in that singularity? Or will you be just another ape roasting to death as your brain rots? If it’s energy-intensive, then what matters is who controls the factors of production. They see you as a cost, not a useful friend who simped for Pascal’s Basilisk.
We could have a positive singularity, or we could have a malevolent singleton. And it depends on your rationality right now.
In my personal experience, the ones joking about hanging themselves tend to be more sensitive.


“Yeah right, you said that a week ago.”

The programming hasn’t changed; the Overton window has.


Then put it at the end, don’t get my hopes up for just a moment only to crush them once again!
Just because he’d still be innocent doesn’t make it smart idea!
