See, this is precisely the issue with Japan. "Oh look, author has not upheld himself to the highest level of restraint and mastery, he must be a quack" This is how you breed deep, lasting resentment. We don't want to become l

What I don't follow is why Ethereum is a good target to implement this type of program on. If you have the know-how to implement a bulletproof/trustable multi-token transaction clearing platform, why would you want to tie yourself

Thank you for taking the time to answer. Respectfully, I see no point in the mechanism you outline above. You're moving the icky cash-for-tokens risk source from the established coin markets to your private coin with no added benefit I

If I want to transform (BTC|LTC|eth) tokens to cash, how does introducing an intermediate token help?

Well if you can stream your desktop that's half the work done already. Vlc transcodes just about anything you can throw at it so there's the other half.

That's why you should tell your friends about youtube-dl & vlc and other tools like that. It hardly gets any simpler than that, and it's as good an introduction to terminals/programming for non-techy friends as anything e

You don't do business covered by serious NDAs on non EMSEC/COMSEC equipment. You do not talk about sensitive information in a wired room. In your personal life just leave your microphoned laptops/phones in a box in the room n

Yeah sure, let's move all local industry and commerce out of England, it can't be that hard if the multinational banks with their armies of lawyers and accountants can do it, right?

Oh come on, once the content is displayable it's piratable and they damn well know that. This is more a matter of restrictive terms and conditions they can enact due to their monopoly-like position.

I'd wager that's not how the bulk of whatever was used there was imported, but I may have seen too many James Bond movies.

The device rebooted like 10 minutes later so I'm breaking the tinfoil hat out. Anyone got good advice on how to handle possible infection on an android phone?

Wildly off topic: this site redirected my mobile chrome to some advertisement with a screen blocking scammy alert and closed all other tabs. What the hell?

> Is there any indication they would do that? There won't be. Unless we actually make things happen to assure against "suddenly DRM", at some point the technology will be there that you cannot trivially bypass.

Exactly, not all tough problems have to be solved. In this case we probably should optimise for choice rather than an elegant system!

The social media are pushing the social thing, which is fair enough from a business standpoint. What isn't fine is that users are (intentionnaly, could be argued) led to believe that the media part is equivalent to traditional "RS
