Dash / Darkcoin existed before Monero. Still shitcoins, but get the facts right.

Sony produced a device that let you put a memory stick into the floppy drive. It had 3 coin cells to let it work as an emulator for the floppy disk for reads and writes. Seriously.

Yes. Only a few things proliferate in inches, but products that are defined in inches always do. Subway sandwiches are a mixture, in the netherlands they are 30cm (an extra 30mm), in other metric countries they remain as a footlong.

I doubt it, they pivoted a few times from being a Bitcoin API, to a "cloud blockchain" thing whatever that could be. Nobody can ever describe why you'd even want this as a thing.

Sounds like a perfect watering hole attack to make a "cryptocurrency phone". Think of it like selling a mail-order gold bar cozy. 100% of your customers have a physical item that's vulnerable to crowbar enhanced recovery.

Source? Everything we've seen in terms of technical publication about the design of their software and hardware says the opposite. They're intentionally baking privacy into their services where others have done the exact opposite.

A lot of this comes down to people's TVs adding 100ms of latency, rather than device itself. For me with hardline coax up to the server the latency was 30ms for frame rendering which is totally usable, 130ms on the TV without 'gam

Capture a token, use it yourself, and show the user an error so they generate a new token.

I think you’d struggle to find people who wear ear protection but aren’t exposed to, for example, other hazardous conditions on a mining or building site that are hard to control for.

This is a nocebo effect. The two things you just described aren’t even in the same ballpark of RF frequency. The brain doesn’t have any way of measuring pain; let alone temperature. Brain surgery can be done with the patient awake in desira

Note that “hot ear” can’t possibly be an effect of RF, more that you’ve just held something up to your ear. Simple evaluation based on the size of the battery in a phone tells you that there can be no significant heating effect on anything,

Given the number of flights that happen every day, the number is really quite low. Driving has a much higher fatality and injury rate than flying.

Note the different scales. They were really floundering and never got up to anything like their intended altitude. They also continued the crazy-low altitude for over 5 minutes before final impact.

Power meters generally don't well measuring low loads, 2W sounds like an error.

They don't. Mine draw under 10W, which is well within range of a Linksys thing.

You've got to be kidding. There's no way of validating anything about modern hardware, it's packed with independent systems running various firmware, software that's decades old, parts nobody can even identify unless you

I'm not sure I believe this one as much, just based on the part you quoted. I can see a chip manipulating the BMC/IPMI flash to make it do things it shouldn't. I don't see how an ethernet port could be modified to be int

This article talks about something elsewhere entirely than the original one, and unrelated to the BMC.
