Cool, now answer the actual question. Are you 99% sure that most cash volume is not money laundering?

I also think living somewhere he could have seen Dorian Nakamoto's name is a very, very strong pointer towards Finney. It may seem like a dumb opsec mistake to pick a name from your town, but lets remember, at that point we're tal

Yes! Plus Faketoshi most likely waited until the person/people he knew (or strongly suspected) were Satoshi were dead to launch his scams. Less chance of a forum post saying "I'm not Craig Wright".

Like how the Assault Weapons Ban in 94 in the US is leading to the complete and total restriction of guns in the US.

I hear criminals keep using cash to launder money, but the central banks keep printing cash! Outrageous! Unbelievable behaviour! To jail with the lot, straight away!

Wave was two things. - A public and open protocol that could have replaced email with structured messages if it got popular, and - A series of self-love technical exercises like the scrollbars and the live-typing which nobody cared for and

Yes, Reader was Google's Twitter, in the way that maybe it doesn't make money but it can be used to put the right info in front of the right people. Throwing away that capability is demented. We were lucky, really.

Why seize money only once?

It may be hard to figure out if somebody is nitpicking on irrelevant stuff as "pointing out fallacies" because they are sure about their conclusion and just want to barge their way through to it. When you're dealing with some

I guess I'm old and set in my ways, but I just don't want any of this. I never missed nesting. Don't Shadow DOM and components kind of make this not very important? I've mainly seen nesting used in huge multi-kloc scss f

You are right in many situations, but some other situations change and you may be stuck in what sounds like learned helplessness.

I skimmed the paper and couldn't find where they say they looked for those users and posts that you mention. Maybe I missed it, can you point me to where does it say they make an honest effort to find those people? I wouldn't say

I wonder if the CIA fabrications of today only seem believable now and will seem unbelievable in 70 years.

> Maybe many more then you would think. First of all of there are others with regrets they are most likely also found there. Second to warn others. Thirdly to vent. And how would you find those posts after they were banned and deleted?

Well, ok, but that means there's still _less_ friction with those particles because they don't interact electrically, right? So I still would expect the same result of the 4 blobs in different positions in space. What's wrong

Exactly, so why would you place devices made by your adversaries all over the place, where they can disrupt your comms?

If I put my cynical hat on (who am I kidding, I'm always wearing it), I would ask how useful would it be to prevent Common Knowledge from forming for an autocratic government to stay in power. Think about the emperor's new clothes

That's also how I understood it. No photons, no electrical interaction, no friction.

Well, that's swell. Can you point to the specific video? I see a few about dark matter and want to have a look. Now that I thought I finally got the point....

This is the picture and article that made Dark Matter "click" for me, as a total layman: https://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/chandra/news/08-111.html With lensing we can "see" that dark mat

It's a very bad strategy, but the silver lining is that it's self-correcting.

English is, of course, my second language, maybe that's why you didn't quite grasp what I was saying. The burden is not in knowing another language, the burden is in making the "less useful" language your main one. You

I went digging into what was wrong with my network. I'm deep into updating my pihole now, for better or for worse. Wish me luck!
