I keep all cookies off (* scope uMatrix), and all 3rd-party everything-else off as well. It's better. If you keep all 1st-party JS off, most sites are utterly blank. At least when you allow the domain to do what it's trying to, you get a good value measure of whether the content is worth seeing, before you need to decide to check from where they want their 3rd-party scripts.
Usually, though, I find there's nothing under the js-clusterfuck. Noise > Signal.
Wow, "Animal experiments suggest that, in humans, ingestion of 10 g may be fatal or cause serious damage to health.[12] It causes severe burning pain in sub-microgram quantities when ingested orally."
Mrs. Renfro's Ghost Pepper Salsa (actually mostly habenero w/ a touch of ghost chile): a spoonful gives a great heat to a whole pot of what-have-you. But on the main topic, I completely agree that nobody wants to taste things anymore.
No, that's incorrect, and GP is trying to let you know how it actually works. From GP's wikipedia article,
Lord Adair Turner, formerly the UK's chief financial regulator, said "Banks do not, as too many textbooks still suggest, take deposits of existing money from savers and lend it out to borrowers: they create credit and money ex nihilo – extending a loan to the borrower and simultaneously crediting the borrower’s money account".
You are ignoring the fact that they denied Carnivore's existence for years, just like they denied that the NSA existed, just like they denied the Snowden allegations, just like... do I really need to go on?
In AC's favor, it seems like they're actually just using the dollar-transaction fee and determining how much electricity it costs to make that much BTC. Not exactly the same measurement as they're purporting. Mea culpa.
Now we're adding more conditions which I clearly didn't anticipate from the GPP.
I'm sure I can find a way to meet your conditions though for less than 250 kWh...:)
But, yes, I understand that most of the conditions under which BTC excels are the primary use case. I have no problem with BTC as a hobby, but many people treat it as their current Multi-Level Marketing Project/Scheme.

Are you in Pittsburgh today?
Also, don't you find the 15GB limiting?
Deployed at altitude via cruise missile in packs of 500...
compete
Surely that's not the point of life? I can see having a half-acre one of these things of my own out back to produce a modest crop for myself?
...they'll demonetize your video
That's not remotely the same thing.
"at least twice as good as the average human driver"
Define "good" and "average", Mr. Musk...
By not visiting Facebook.
Or any of billions of sites with a FB widget? Please try to understand the issue.

What's the remedy here? The ballot box? Pretty discouraging.

Do you think hundreds of millions of starving plebes will just roll over and die peacefully?
That's what the Killbots are for...
"mass is frozen energy and both are the same thing, similar to water and ice."
Despite the complaints of AC, I really appreciate this metaphor.
This is an underrated comment.

Lack of evidence beyond paranoid speculation?
Remember when they said the same thing about Carnivore?
I'm shocked that this is the first time I've seen anyone besides me suggest this is an on-purpose back door.
Scripts are only one of the many, many types of files that your browser must parse with perfection.
Ehhhhhh. To take advantage of this vulnerability, an attacker first must be able to run malicious code on the targeted system.
:-/ )
Again, if I'm not clicking ads and opening strange files, I'm really only worried about privilege escalation (Like Intel Management Engine
For the average home user, are you saying this is a full-alarm fire?
I get why server farms are stocking up on Depends, but if I'm at home on a script-blocking browser, isn't my attack vector pretty small?
I thought they were getting sued for that kind of thing!
Fire them.
From a cannon.
Into the sun!

I actually linked my cited source, which is the source of the "house-days" measurement.
No, that's more like giving someone the permission to access to a bank account with money in it
To use the BTC, they still have to perform a transaction.
Now we're adding more conditions which I clearly didn't anticipate from the GPP.
