It's not DIA issue here. If it's legally available for purchase it seems no different than buying a phone book. Whether such database should exist and be legal to sell to anybody is another question.

Environmental regulations are a good counterpoint and analogy. That shifts my perspective a bit, thanks. I admit food/safety/env regulations occupied a different pocket in my head and maybe it's less far away from this topic

What could be the reason to use DMA on a hobby micro-controller board? Honest question, I'm just curious. I can imagine some high reliability production systems that may prefer micro vs CPU, but why would you bother doing any more adva

Let me elaborate. Even ignoring potential loopholes and just creating new dynamics - they don't want it, the cost is high to adjust to that regulation. Creating some tools may be necessary, just getting familiar with it and creating a

I think it may be that you couldn't really change your status with money. It's not like today when you did something great and your wealth changes by orders of magnitude. So your status came from being a master. Somebody in very h

The whole INDUSTRY that you are talking about is what happened in LA in 70s. I don't understand why would you take it as picture of how things should be done. It has not been like that before and it's getting back to "normal&

Exactly, present randomness to people and they will find some patterns. Even if 1 in 100 is interesting, those are the one that end up on social media doing the marketing. Kind of evil that way. But I think some people want what others don&

Yeah but I mean it would be nice if you could have some kaleidoscopic effect. Or something like a Rorschach test. Just broken glass won't go viral.

That is a great idea. It has some appeal. Prepare it from some thin sheet of glass but on something which will hold it together, maybe add some fluids separated in a ways that are easy to destroy with acceleration. You receive something tha

I agree with the conclusion but how did you do your calculation? If you take a picture of a 16 colors screen you will find many more colors in that picture (main reason being that pixels won't align perfectly).

Plus light pollution and air pollution. Maybe some other changes in the atmosphere. And very careful looking. You don't need lenses, just looking through a hole in a leaf could be helpful.

Please pay taxes. Change the system instead of giving it reasons to put you into jail. I don't think very highly of people who brag about not paying taxes which they are due.

OK, yes, that's a fair point. But it's not clear to me that pumping being taken away would be a bigger change than people trying to get out of USDT and buying BTC. Also we've been there (mtgox's willy etc). I don't

Many value increases are irrational, whatever that means, I understand how it can be used to pump the price. I just don't understand how it takes bitcoin with it when collapsing.

I don't get it. tether sucks. If you hold tether it may turn into air. But your bitcoin is still bitcoin. Also, when tether is going down wouldn't you want to sell it thus creating pressure in btc/tether market and value of o

I don't, but it was a narrow case. Part of my home-made home automation runs on wifi so I was focusing on low latency and no packets lost when using wifi in my specific building. Top of the shelf routers all had some occasional hiccups
