>Americans invented the telephone business and until recently dominated production and research. But in the last 20 years, every single American producer of key telecommunication equipment sectors is gone. So qualcomm doesn't exist?

I attempted to go vegetarian and noticed significant hair loss, very quickly back on the meat wagon. Googling around it seems that anecdotally, this is a very real phenomenon. Vegetarian and vegan diets, for me, seem entirely too strict. I&

The medium is the message, study the medium and it's effects on how information is distributed. The genie is out of the bottle. Unless you want a 1984 style propaganda you have to accept that media is different from 10 years ago and it

Facebook didn't doctor the video, out of all the content they could be blasted on this is pretty trivial. This is part of a larger trend in MSM to pry eyeballs away from social media and back to traditional one way media.

Following the methods of the paper I already see a huge flaw. They calculated energy per coin using hashpower from 2016-2018, ignoring all mining and coins from 2009-2016. Basically cherry picking their data and ignoring all the coins that

You asking for links just proves how dangerous this media is. People are driven to fill their own sadistic curiosity with more information and media, I myself am guilty of this btw. The manifesto is what you would expect from a sociopath dr

Electricity secures bitcoin's inherent security. It's a feature, not a bug. Seeing as most everyone's information used to access credit is available on dark sites, I'm willing to go long on cryptocurrencies.

This ban is just a bunch of restaurants threatening city hall into some short sided vision of theirs. Ban cafeterias and you'll just get more delivery services. Funny how this ban won't affect the city hall cafeteria.
