Crypto today is like e-commerce in 2000. Or the internet in 1995. It has enormous potential to change the world. I bet if the internet was invented today we would hear the same energy arguments.

I remember clamshell mode working in 2006. Didn’t use it much though, was afraid it would fry my Macbook Pro. You could boil an egg on the first Intel Macbook Pros.

The vaccination centers can double as infusion centers. The therapy kicks in immediately, you’re back to normal the next day. It’s really a wonderdrug and weird we haven’t heard more about it.
