Sam got super rich in valuation because he owns a large part of FTX. Like CZ from Binance. Sure, he also made a lot trading, but that's not how he became a billionaire. Also, US has a long arm, this is why foreign exchanges forbid US c

Firefox is my main browser for many years now, but there are two categories of sites that I only open in Chrome: Video heavy sites, especially YouTube. It loads extremely slowly compared to Chrome. And has much more video stuttering. Probab

Windows/Apple have special APIs which allow video decrypting to be done on the GPU. And the GPU will not allow you to access the decrypted video surface. This is why you can't screenshot Netflix on Windows/Apple - the region

You can default on your sovereign debt. Argentina does it every 10 years or so, and the next day after default banks line up to credit it again. Greece practically (but not technically) defaulted in the 2012 European debt crisis. China owns

One universal recommendation would be to make sure that whatever you buy, they have 1 inch silk tweeters. Makes a lot of difference.

You are correct, acoustics are more important than speakers. That being said, there is huge difference between speakers too. I listened once to a wall of different studio monitors in a music shop, and the differences between them were very

At some point bugs will evolve to eat electricity directly. After all, that's what the electron transport chain does in respiration. So just cut the food middleman.

Russia performed very poorly in the Covid pandemic, it had one of the highest death rates in the world. It would be a pretty dumb plan for them to start a new pandemic.

It's not the polystyrene which cracks, but the plastic shell holding it in place. The separation will happen after the compression force is removed, because the compression will keep the split parts close together. Meaning that the hel

You are correct. But when people say "finance is science" what they usually mean is "here is the complicated math that proves you can't lose money on this, we've modeled everything". As the joke goes, 6 sigma e

It doesn't matter what the internet was promoted for. Do you believe it's decentralization has value or not? Despite the fact that the vast majority of people use it just for Facebook and Instagram.
