Have I committed fraud when I steal your World of Warcraft gold? Yes. Should I pay tax on that gold when I sell it for cash? Yes. Will the police help you when you call them to report it? I highly, HIGHLY doubt it. It's easy to put you

Bitcoin and all of the other alt-coins are numbers on a screen. Few people pay taxes on them, and few places treat them as a real asset or fungible currency. Why then, do the authorities in the US and China aggressively pursue those people

Alex Jones is a very interesting performance artist. You really don't know what you are going to get with him. Politics aside, his method acting is extremely interesting. He has tried to monetize his audience by selling items they migh

Re: your first point, how can you say I have not looked at evidence or psychology? The aggregate statistics for road deaths and injuries include drunk drivers, high speed two way roads in Wyoming, winter collisions, etc. I don't drive

I completely and totally agree. Most people have no desire to look at a wiring schematic, troll around a junkyard, plasma cut, sand body panels, etc. I do these things on a weekly or monthly basis when I am working on a new project car for

It wouldn't make sense to never go outside, that is correct. It would make sense, however, to avoid high crime areas, large and violent gatherings of people like riots, etc. And if you were truly, truly, truly paranoid, you could wear

I was rear ended by a very tall and heavy truck while driving my VW golf. My car was low to the ground, but had a high trunk. I got some minor whiplash and that was it. If I was in a miata, which is low to the ground AND has a low trunk, th

This is EXACTLY correct!! Driving statistics are aggregates. Some statistics may not apply, for example if you don't drive drunk, or on very dangerous roads, or very fast, or in wintery conditions. Have you read about "gun death&q

And who could blame them? Most of us are not very good athletes and don't have as many neighborhood friends around to play sports with anymore. If we want to live vicariously through someone on the screen, we share a lot more in common

I knew I should have specified diphenhydramine! It could have averted this precise discussion. But then I was worried that nobody would recognize its chemical name.

On United 232, 111 people died. An additional 47 were seriously injured. The remaining 120+ people had "minor injuries", which, because the plane erupted into flames, I assume had to do with smoke inhalation. This can't serio

Lmao, you make a public video saying that you know you are about to commit something "really illegal". You then illegally dump waste after being specifically told not to do that. Here's an idea: why not take some of that yout

I despise flying with a passion. I am usually pretty level headed in life, but between the TSA, sardine seating, and assured death if something goes wrong, it is hard to be comfortable. Passing out before take off and waking up after landin

I would suggest Angel List to at the very least narrow your search, and then manually inspect the companies that come close to what you are looking for :) You will find that they are few and far between ahah

"Remember 1999? Yeah, those companies were 'bad companies'. And the banks that brought them to IPO are 'bad people'. They knowingly peddled their stock to the public market. Grandma lost her 401k because of them. Bu

I am afraid that people like you and I are the minority! It seems that corporations have decided to pursue DRM, and people are either knowingly or unknowingly accepting it. The cars are still selling- and I don't see many people at the

I agree once more with everything you have said! Sadly I am still worried about the "details of implementation", because they will need to occur within our lifetime, and are influenced by very very rich people who hold all the key

Thank you for your interesting and raw thoughts :) I too agree that the internet should be as free as water. Interestingly, there are movements that attempt to do that, but I think that government and corporation forces are quite good at dr

This is so, so true. What a surprise that this comment at the bottom of this thread. FB's, Twitter's, and YT's new policy is "if it goes beyond E for Everyone, demonetize and or censor." And these are supposed to be

Please see my other comment to the person you replied to. We are not dumbasses. Your experience is not reflective of everyone's experience. Next time there's a fire at my house, I would rather put it out myself than have you and y

But all those ads and videos and photos and frameworks that peg my CPU and bandwidth are totally fine. Thanks NJ for keeping me safe!

First they came for my right to vote, and we spoke out, but we were powerless. Then they came for my internet, and I spoke out, but nobody could hear.

"Be American, get arrested." It is truer and truer every day. I deliberately avoid a pathway or roadway if I can see a police officer there. These guys are overpaid, hyped-up, and ignorant of whatever law you cite when they wrongf

Awesome comment. I am not a Bitcoin supporter. I own no Bitcoin. I used to trade daily in 2013, but now I'm all cash. IMHO, people react angrily when they feel threatened. They attempt to belittle what they don't like. When someon

That sounds like a hellacious place to attend school. That's like judging an engineer based on a blended average of their output, for 3 months, compared to Nikola Tesla. If you can't compete with him, sorry, it's gonna have t

Well ironically, if everyone decided to sit back and let the market pick winners... ...then none of the projects would be funded, and you'll never have any of these games to choose from. Now, $16,000 is a lot, and it sounds like an add

Ahh, so this is how democracy dies, then. Vibrant and bright individuals create platforms that millions of other brilliant individuals use. An extremely small percentage of other individuals use these platforms to facilitate terrible crimes
