Yeap this is what I meant, using 'put into' like "putting money into stocks". Good point about bitcoins that have never been exchanged.

Does anyone know the actual value of the money put into bitcoin so far vs this market cap of recent sale price x count? I'm keen to know actually how many people could withdraw at similar sale prices to now before it evaporated. Becaus

To clarify you disagree with “an unpunished and unrepentant paedophile at the age of 30 should not be elected to office” and you actually just said that they are _improved morally your eyes by the experience_. Just blows my mind. I can’t b

It’s pretty had to get 8 people to get interviewed by the cops on something this serious without screwing it up badly. Look at the fake accuser plant and the WP, they sussed it out very quickly.

I think you need to read the charges more closely. Sexual assault of a 14 year old is not something you can judge a persons character on solely? What in your mind would be a “deal breaker” by itself?

I just saw some really nuts justifications to prevent poor people going to university I can’t believe someone rationalised in their head. How could this not be popular? Where will would be without the next generation of literature, teachers

Forget the constitution, ex/soldiers should know better than to dismiss the Geneva convention offhandedly like this, it isn’t a good look for a military without a stellar reputation as is.

It’s a marketing play. Appear innovative and differentiate commoditised accounting services. Sell advisory services to governments and big business on crypto. Good idea really.

It can vary a lot, town planning goes from meticulously fine tuned for successful community, to max number of houses and fewer services for property developer profit.

I think this is another situation where you can look at the models in the UK, Europe, other similar countries to find solutions. If I grew up in the US and could have managed it, you can study in Germany as a foreigner for free. Other count

This is very America-centric. Basketball isn’t even that popular in other western countries, is popular in China, but meaningless on the Indian subcontinent, Africa and South America compared to football. Even the China thing is a stretch.

Visiting the US, it always surprises me just how polarised the people’s opinions are as you travel around compared with other western countries. I imagine in California (the most similar part to other western countries) and this thread this

"Lots" is strong, given that the only western European countries higher were Finland and Sweden I could see, which is known to be caused by the long and dark winters.

Clearly the OP meant in the context of anticompetitive action the tech industry, not including foreign (at war) countries that have concentration camps. This kind of snark really takes away from the discussion.

We'll just have to disagree. Last weekend I was at a farm in Glenburn with NBN, but since on the farm they get 4g which is easier they just use that instead, especially just for email and occasional agri-mapping software. Meanwhile sof
