And more importantly, take investor’s money. Most tech company are constantly losing money and depend a continuous flow of investor money.

Reddit lost 90 million dollars last year, that’s why they did the IPO, so they could sell the problem to some sucker. Snapchat lost 1.3 billion last year, and would run quickly go bankrupt if people stopped investing.

As usual, the best way to get rich quick is by selling a get-rich-quick scheme.

Oh no, public is public. Don’t post stuff on the internet you don’t want to be saved and possibly indexed forever.

Brb training a bot on 4chan posts.

Might a a good idea to buy it, I’m sure it will sell for 10$ with some haggling.

Ok, as a compromise between a generic word and a specific name, I vote we call them Xcrement. (Verb: Xcrete) (Would nicely describe the average quality too)

I highly recommend you try Linux gaming, it’s still not perfect, but has massively improved in the last few years.

I would draw the line at hyping NFTs on social media, actively turning poor desperate people into even poorer suckers.

IANAL, but I think that they would only have to prove that people were lying with the intent to commit fraud, not that they were not stupid for falling for it.

I have found literal thousands of posts made to Reddit and Twitter claims that these are good investments and some outright lying about NFTs and shitcoin s, and I don’t have millions of dollars at stake.

I think most people that lose money in NFT and shitcoin scams are not the ultra rich, but normal people looking to grow their savings to avoid having to work multiple jobs just to break even. I know people that have lost years of savings and some even got evicted because of this crap. Most ultra rich know these are scams, after all, they have to get rich somehow.

If you bought one the best thing to do (financially) is to immediately sell it off to another sucker, perpetuating the cycle of scams. (Make sure to hype it on Reddit or Twitter so you can sell it for even more)

These are literally the worst investment possible, because all the value comes from speculation (people buying them to get rich quick). As soon as those buyers get spooked the cones crashing down to zero. With something like a share in a company, that entitled the holder to partial ownership of the company. Even if the company goes bankrupt, you would still get a share in the former assets of the company. You can of course lose money if you buy at a price that is much higher then the actual value due to speculation, but this is limited by the intrinsic value of the company’s assets.

Just like any other drive, assume they could fail at any moment, and have backups.

Redreader still works for some reason.

A lot of people have old phones whose batteries are to degraded to be useful for much, those could be used as servers with much less problems then any other phone (no spotty connectivity, no changing mobile network ips, no cutting into the battery life of your phone)

Options are good, now no single country can ruin things.

The simple solution here is to try to contact someone before assuming they have been kidnapped. Of course the goal of scammers is to make you panic, and stop thinking rationally. A deepfake could definitely help with that.

At these frequencies, even paper could effect transmission speeds.

For low datarates sure, but at high speeds the dispersion caused by light taking multiple paths will be unacceptable. The reason single node fiber is so thin is to make sure light can only travel along one path. If you want multi gigabit speeds, you will need a direct line of sight.

This is slightly less practical than just connecting your devices with fiber, at least you can run a cable around corners, and your connection won’t drop is a piece of paper block the line of sight to the access point.

TLDR: Farmer agrees to sell some flax in the future at a fixed price, by responding “👍” to “please confirm flax contract”. Later, as the market price of flax went up, the farmer demands more money. They buyer then goes to court to force the farmer to sell the flax at the agreed price, judge rules that the “👍” does count as agreement.

So is saying yes.

I am totally in favor of doing this for normal cars too considering how many people are killed every year.

Frankly if we got the same kind of revenge on human drivers there wouldn’t be a single working car left.
