Yes, but he's also made numerous videos about how he makes less than a pittance of income from YouTube. Yes, the doom-scrolling applies here, but he's from New York originally and you can tell the amicus is how a place he grew up

Yep, what OP is getting at is that in time, as a side-effect of out-migration the cool things that draw people to NYC will start to slowly disappear entirely. The small bakeries, the things that bring charm to neighborhoods all over the ci

Yep, I was in NYC for about a month prior to covid and throughout 2020. Small business is absolutely decimated and last summer was truly one hell of a cluster-fuck. I witnessed first hand, the police doing nothing as huge stores were loot

Yeah, I'm working remote for the current startup I work for (which used to have offices in NYC). Basically my deal was, I'm leaving until there's an office because my lease is up and I'm not signing a new one if there&#

I've met Louis in person, he's truly a standup guy with a heart of gold. That said, he needs to pony up and get a lawyer. Making petty arguments on YouTube isn't going to help you with bureaucracy it's only going to ma

TranquilMarmot given your circumstances, have you considered moving to a remote location where you are highly unlikely to ever encounter humans again? If you're looking for a solution, that's one potential option. However, emotion

Yes, that's the point of the vaccine. Even if you get <insert variant here> you have a far lower likelihood of being hospitalized. Check mate science, move on. Living in fear of the unknown is a fools errand. This is how you pl

Harmful to your circumstances. I don't live with someone who is immunocompromised and I did my part by receiving the vaccine and wearing a mask in areas of high density. As a result, I'm going back to as normal a life as possibl

We need one more winter to burn through the rest of the population. There's no way around it unfortunately, in my view. I got the vaccine, forcing people to get the vaccine isn't going to do much either. I was in NYC for the ent

I'm completely okay with this. Binance still hasn't explained why basically none of their leveraged tokenized assets nearly all failed to perform as intended[0]. Whole heartedly - fuck Binance. 0 - https://www.coindesk

This is why I refuse to fuck around with "smart" banks / credit cards of any kind. It's just not worth this kind of hassle, where the best case scenario is waiting around 3-4yrs for the government to print your money bac

It's still so cool to know that in high security buildings it's common to run fiber optic comms cable inside of pipes carrying natural gas. Seems like that would largely take care of the potential for seismic eavesdropping or wir

I do not. It's pretty easy to see the slant most of his essays have, although I do like reading them since he's incredibly articulate and writes in an intelligent yet plain style. His essays and opinions generally seek to aggrand

This is cool, but clearly laws never really disincentivized bad actors in Mexico. Now I'm just wondering if I can have Fentanyl with my legal Mexican weed?

Fun fact, all CNC machines sold in the United States with more than 5 axes of travel have to be registered with the ATF and have a permanently attached GPS tracking unit. This is even true if you have zero intention of using your CNC to ma

Yep, as much as I love them Hak5 somehow still maintains a "fan base" for this kind of petty "hacking". Still, hat's off to Darren and Shannon!

They're likely making vague references to "CBDC's" or Central Bank Digital Currencies[0]. Networks like Chia that focus on less power consumption will likely be used to facilitate these networks, there's already be

It's interesting how more and more cases of women being kidnapped and forced to sell explicit content via OnlyFans[0] have started to surface recently. I personally don't have any objection to sex work, however it's not hard
