There are several Cryptocurrencies that use proof-of-storage/space/capacity instead of bitcoins proof-of-work. There are also other low energy methods like proof-of-stake. Those may have the potential to be alternatives.
Open source has the potential for more eyes.
It can be fixed after official support ends.
It can be audited by anyone.
Tampering with the code of open source may be more likely to be noticed.
Tampering with closed source code can be more difficult.
Commercial closed source developers may be more likely to be held accountable for vulnerabilities and thus can be more motivated to provide a secure solution.
Commercial closed source may be more likely to be reviewed by a security expert because of there is not a security expert on the team, one can be hired, whereas for non commercial closed source, this may not be as likely an option.
Closed source has security by obscurity, which can make some vulnerabilities somewhat harder to find by malicious actors.
Oh look, you clicked the first search result and none of the others. You also quoted part of the result that suggests that it doesn't have much to do with taxes at all.
"Normally if there is a conflict between rights of the minority, vs the rights of the majority to oppress the minority. The minority group will win."
This depends on your definition of "win" usually in such conflicts, large percentages and sometimes the majority of the minority group die.
This isn't news. Flight attendants suffer increased risk of cancer. Probably because of this radiation. Astronauts have restrictions on total flight hours because of cosmic radiation.
I know it isn't a simple solution. Sure the legal framework that embassies operate under might not be ideal, so make a new framework. Not a simple thing to do, but with growing international interest in controlling data and corporations resistant partly due to economic reasons something like this could potentially be a good compromise.
The kilogram is also linked, 1 Liter of liquid water at some spesfic temp (I forget) is kilogram. Due to difficulties measuring water this is not the actual definition, but it is what the definition is intended to be based on.
This is convenient because it let's you measure the volume of water and some other liquid cooking ingredients with a scale to a scale and a 1 to 1 conversion.
Contacts and agreements for projects with a budget as high as a film like this should involve enough negotiating, commitment, honesty and planning to avoid such a large problem. My suspicion is one of the following happened:
The negotiations were nowhere near comprehensive.
Someone was dishonest with themselves or the other party during the negotiations.
Someone went back on their commitments during the negotiations.
Those directors must be in quite the comfortable position of they can afford to drop such a lucrative contract.

The lightning network is a thing and has the potential to not only reduce energy consumption but also increase capacity.

That should have said: if cherry picking was not so common I wouldn't need to use "weasel words".
If you don't want me to use weasel words then you should stop cherry picking.
The key word there is "may".

That's been a function of gasoline taxes forever....
I just did some research on your claim, because it sounded absurd. Turns out it is both absurd and false.
Technically, "on sale" means "for sale", i.e. "available for purchase".
Yes, but no one here (except you) has mentioned the phrase "on sale" we are talking about "marked discounted".
Frankly I think it should be made illegal - after all it's false advertising.
It is illegal in some jurisdictions. Should be that way in all of them.
Who were those who invented the ".99" marketing gimmick? I don't recall...
Probably the same people who invented perpetual sales, where something is always marked discounted despite being its regular price.
You might want to do some reading about how to respond to people with hallucinations. You appear to be grossly misinformed.
No, not like "all the time". What makes you think otherwise?

Aren't there areas of California that have, at times needed to have water imported by truck?
"Facebook's first serious foray into selling consumer hardware" um what about the Rift?
This is what I get for posting while I am barely awake.
Please let's not start using new or obscure unitz of measurement that provid no significant improvement over currently popular units.
True, but it is clear that the article is talking any apple products.
Apple released a touch screen product years before the iPhone. The Newton.

My lack of understanding makes me react in strange and silly ways.
