I get this argument if it was for e.g. gold. A physical asset, thousands of years of people appreciating it, nothing else like it. But why might it be rational to put some of your net worth to bitcoin? What speaks for bitcoin existing in a

>30% is one of the lowest fees in the market. What? This is simply not true. If anything, 30% is the standard for app distribution. Steam, GOG, MS Store, Playstation, Xbox, Nintendo, Apple App Store & Google Play are all at 30%. If i

Would the need for oil and military go away were we to switch to using bitcoin for everything? Why are those coupled to the dollar's energy usage?

This indeed sucks, but it would be pretty easy to fix. Just allow your nickname to be deleted for old posts automatically. I don't think individual posts' privacy is what people are usually worried about, but the possibility of ge

Why should an account delete remove private messages from others? If you delete your account at your cellphone cartier, should it remove text messages you've sent from everybody's phones?

Ah true, for US users it would be a lot higher. Seems to be around $10 billion per quarter of revenue for US and Canada[1], which means around 15 per user (for around 250 million users[2]. You weren't that far off! That's definite

How do you come to that number? $30 per month from WhatsApp alone? This source seems to think it's closer to $30 per year per user for the whole of facebook: https://www.statista.com/statistics/234056/facebook

Exactly. It's hard to see how masks themselves could have a negative effect. If they have a positive effect caused by people being more conscious of the current situation and keeping a greater distance, or not going out at all because

Yeah, it's not great. But you can get to "new tab" by longpressing the tab counter thingy. Yep, I noticed it by accident.

"To be used in Bing Maps" is a bit of a stretch. They're models shared by users you can import one by one into your install of MSFS.

The most amazing thing about this feature is that no matter how much I try, I never seem to be able to re-shake the window in the proper way (which would bring all windows back up again). But nice that it's at least possible to disable

It's probably more that there isn't enough of an install base to make it worthwhile, sadly. Of course as a Rift owner myself, I think it'd be a damn shame if VR never arrived for MSFS2020.

Why should it start at specifically zero though? Growth can be, and often is, negative. Shouldn't it start at -50 to be sure? The point of the chart is exactly to show ("exaggerate") the difference in values!
