No it couldn't, darknet markets and others will always be generating enough economic activity to keep the prices nonzero.

There is no minimum age to get a debit card in the UK, 13 just happens to be a common limit imposed by the banks themselves.

Cryptocurrencies generally don't pay profits. Ethereum sort of does if you're staking, but that's out of reach for "normal people". You always have exactly the same amount of cryptocurrency, with no serious claim ma

Cryptocurrency is as much a ponzi as it's a car. Cryptocurrency in general is not an investment promising profits, but a tool for payments (or a smart contract platform, whatever). A Ponzi scheme is a fraud which takes money from inves

If you know what a "car" and a "bicycle" are, it's obvious that a bicycle is not a car. It would be silly for anyone to waste their time by explaining you the difference between the two. Same applies here. > Sayi

Did you reply to the wrong comment? > Obvious enough to anyone who actually understands how bitcoin, or eth work, it does not fit the definition of a ponzi scheme. This is indeed obvious to anyone who knows what both of those things are.

You could probably use techniques like this to rig an early warning system on enemy territory, but there are of course better options.

The AMG-version, while a fun car, will be even less comfortable than the non-AMG. The A-class was unfortunately built to be an economy car, slightly improving the interior materials doesn't solve that. You can't option it with fan

Oh I don't care about paying to drive in London, I'd be celebrating if they raised the congestion charge tenfold. I'm just pointing out that the current vehicle market forces anyone seeking a comfortable, low-NVH car to get s

I've driven one, it really isn't that different from a regular SMART. I also got to try the bizarre Aston Martin Cygnet, just a Toyota with fairly little lipstick on it.

Shouldn't be a massive challenge without a rear seat wasting space. But no, I was talking about the quality of the interior and not leg or head room.

The interior size isn't the problem, it's the interior quality. A Toyota corolla has way more than enough interior space if you remove the rear seats.

A big problem is that there are no good small cars available. I want a small car with an interior comparable with that of the S-class, does not exist. Closest thing is the 911, which is still quite wide and not all that comfortable. If I wa

That's certainly true of current ICE mercedes models, except for the big warning.

by rosnd 4y ago
Is this not essentially just warranty for the increased failure rate that comes with the car being tuned? I guess we'll see if Mercedes is going to suddenly prevent third party tuners from doing this, but I guess not.

So just work with a decent domain registrar. Or if you have extra money, just pay the fee to become a registrar yourself.

This is such a weird story. Is google really using computer vision to detect CSAM? How could that possibly work? This seems like a tremendous technical challenge. Usually photoDNA has been deployed for this, but that almost certainly wouldn

It's the nature of the transaction. You are paying for a specific official act, that would be outright corruption. Generally the money does not get you anything but an opportunity to pitch stuff to the politician, it's just an exp

That's something that Western construction companies have been chasing for ages, absolutely huge benefits at any site. I worked on a very similar project in Northern Europe. Catching slow employees is the least productive use for this.

Why revolt when your quality of life keeps increasing? Some fucked up obsession with "fairness"?

Of course, these are just details that make the differences in mortality rates completely unsurprising.
