Back in the hacking days for apple ii you would reprogram the eprom on the Apple II Firmware Card and could pretty much stop the CPU and at any address and hack away. With no internet people hosted BBS sites with slow ass modems to share al

Rexx was pretty cool at the time, used it both MVS and OS/2. Wrote a ton of automation with it, ISPF interfaces that pretty much ran a dozen mainframes with barely any operator input. Way back in the day you had computer operators who

F22 shooting this down is definitely a sign of strength. If this were a James bond movie, a predator drone would have just hooked that balloon and brought it back intact. What prevents China or anyone else to just launch dozens or hundreds

The more people that see you, better chance your miner is involved with proof of coverage to get a mining reward. It's still just a radio wave so "line of site" improves everything. Visit https://explorer.helium.co
