Thankfully are jobs will be getting easier as speech recognition continues to improve. Some people start from scratch, some people find existing hard subs and translate them to soft subs, some people just translate subs, etc... some people

The first issue is that this is called a "Copyright" reform. The language is loaded from the start and discussion can never get off on the right foot. https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/misinterpreting-copyright.e

Couldn't get started on what? The point of cryptocurrencies wasn't to make people rich. Anyone can buy in at market value and start using coins for their stored value. That is the point. Your anger in the fact that crypto didn&#x2

And the top 1% of the American population controls around 40% of the wealth. In accordance with the power law, the top 20% of the population owned 86% of the country's wealth. Still doesn't seem like a pipe dream.

No, there is a real distinction here. Someone who is a fan of cryptocurrency itself is a fan of the ideas behind it and what it can bring to the table. People who are only satisfied in the outcome if they become rich are clearly not inter

Care to link those two unrelated concepts together a bit better? Money isn't effectively and fairly distributed and it's obviously not a pipe dream.

Anyone who answers no isn't a fan of cryptocurrency; you're asking the wrong people. Those people are just fans of getting rich on the latest fad. Those of us who have been here since the beginning just want cryptocurrency to succ

If you're alarmed about Manifest v3, we welcome you into the Firefox fold. Of course we've had our own issues with WebExtensions but since it's not politically motivated these issues will hopefully be resolved.

I do understand the orbital mechanics of getting to Mars. It's the same as the orbital mechanics of getting to anywhere. I assume you're talking about the Hohmann transfer [0], which is the most efficient path a ship could take. W

Is that 15.5mph limit only for motor output on flat ground? I routinely hit 40-50mph downhill while commuting on my non-motorized road bike.
