Half of the evidence is the location of the SD card, and concealing your presence in that location would be extremely difficult.

Can't forget insurance fraud. I foresee a future where insurance companies will impose additional fees to cars that are "assisted" rather than fully autonomous. What is assisted? A car fitted with the self-driving computer, b

Fucking Chinese are going all-in. What a pain in the ass. Hopefully they actually use their BTC to force retailers to accept BTC, instead of just letting it sit there gathering dust like their endless swaths of vacant apartment buildings.

Absolute rubbish -- the only thing centrally controlled will be the generation of new BTC. That eventuality is expected and after all coins are mined then the reward will be transaction fees. Up until then, you are correct -- the rate of

It really saddens me that so much resources are devoted to destroying the world's security. It stands to reason that all of their research efforts will inevitably be leaked out to the general populace, and at that point we will be in

Maybe the municipalities should start asking Google why they were rejected. I'm extremely skeptical that cities are opening up to competitive fiber offerings -- a lot of it is political wrangling that most aren't even willing to d

You can wash BTC of any identifying information by sending them through a conduit -- someone that is willing to operate an address used to obfuscate the eventual destination of transactions.

VAT applies to BTC<->GBP, so that really dampens adoption in the UK.

It makes perfect sense -- but only if you look at it objectively. The speculators will trade on the hourly waxing and waning exchange rates, but the savers will look at 52-week moving averages. If you judge BTC simply by the latter, and h

It depends heavily on where you are, which bank you're with, with whom you're a citizen of, and a myriad of other factors. Canadians may have an easier time than Americans, but Britons will be SOL.

In China it's really risky to tell your true opinion to friends because you don't know who is working for the Government. In East Germany (during the Cold War) it was similarly risky to tell your true opinion for the same reason.

There is a very wide range of low-carb sources of food that are well-rounded and excellent -- avocados, tomatoes, almonds/almond milk, spinach, cheeses, high-fat yoghurt, tofu, blueberries, raspberries. And obviously many meats. This i

Hmm interesting. I eat a few dozen eggs per month, mostly because they're the cheapest source of protein. I may have to consider chicken or something else.

Low-carb diets advocate replacing carbs with fat in addition to protein, and there are many non-meat sources of fat and protein. And the premise of the diet is supported by sound scientific research rather than simply hearsay (as your com

The US Mint and the Federal Reserve aren't the only institutions -- there are many other similar institutions duplicated across every sovereign power. Also factor in all the national/international banks, too.
