Will second that. I definitely view autoplaying gifs and videos (no sound) as a really nice feature. I'm glad for it.

When I think about lower level security, I think about things like jamming and signal intercepting, and I think about things like being able to tell that you've connected to the right tower. Secuirty at the client and server layer does

I'm all for creating cities where there are no cars, it's a big long term interest of mine to live in such a city. But I don't like the phrasing 'crusades against cars', because it makes it seem like cars are the ba

Can corroborate. I managed to take my vision from -2.75 to -2.25 over the course of about 9 months of what I would consider to be considerable effort. Notably, after about 9 months I stopped putting in as much effort though I continued usin

That doesn't mean it has poor fundamentals, the internet also had paltry usage in the bbs days, and cryptocurrencies technologically are even earlier than that. A lot of people think 10 years is long enough but the road from arpanet to

Yes, this was done with the consent of the miners, and not by pushing out a hardfork onto the network. The miners could have easily refused to perform the downgrade. The majority of nodes on the network stuck to following the longest chain

That's a pretty empty argument, what makes it obvious that cryptocurrencies are not as valuable as many people believe?

3. the btc devs did not decide to abandon the longest chain, the miners voluntarily chose to stop mining the chain they were working on and begin building on a different chain. And, it's significantly less likely that this would happen

Other fabs couldn't either. Intel 10nm depended highly on EUV, the only working 7nm (TSMC) doesn't use EUV at all yet. The first EUV fab will be much better than any existing one today, and it still seems like Intel will claim tha
