The parent post was "The only ones making money are the ones selling the tools."
Which is contradicted by the 3 people I know who have made tens of thousands of dollars off bitcoin and one friend who's made over $200,000. Like a thousand other financial instruments, the people making money are the ones that got in front of the herd.
Considering that Mega has bombed so badly that Kim was recently forced to resign as Director, I don't think the demand for his services is large enough to warrant a new currency.
I've been hearing for a long time about how the Big Evil Government is going to make all kinds of shit illegal- handguns, bitcoins, encryption. But they keep not doing anything like that.
Have you considered the possibility that you're a paranoid nutball?
All the current disputes with China (Diaoyu/Senkaku Islands, Parcel Islands, Spratley Islands, Scarborough shoals, Socotra Rock, etc) are a result of Chinese, not American, aggressiveness
Your basic grasp of the facts has no place in this anti-America circlejerk.
I've read that Japan already has nuclear bomb cores and nuclear bomb casings, but since they have never put the cores inside the bombs they are technically not a nuclear power. But if need be, they could have working bombs in just a few days.
China is going to have the biggest economic collapse since the Great Depression. They are building things that nobody wants or needs in order to keep their GDP growth on target. Vice's visit to one of the many "ghost cities" is shocking.
"The Federal Election Campaign Act (FECA) prohibits any foreign national from contributing, donating or spending funds in connection with any federal, state, or local election in the United States, either directly or indirectly. It is also unlawful to help foreign nationals violate that ban or to solicit, receive or accept contributions or donations from them. Persons who knowingly and willfully engage in these activities may be subject to fines and/or imprisonment. "
You're wrong. Campaign donations have to be documented as coming from a US citizen. Citizens United was about independent PAC organizations, not campaigns.
So it really is just a couple of dumb people putting pressure on the school and not indicative of the school's or Ministry of Education's thoughts at all.
But when 14 idiots in Podunk, Alabama do something stupid, it is conclusive evidence of how dumb Americans are.
The laws of physics are a lot more friendly to flying machines than contained and controlled fusion.
Fusion researches have told us that they were 10 years away from a huge breakthrough for 40 years. Is it possible that my home will be powered by a fusion reactor in my lifetime? Sure. But I would not bet a dollar on it.
"Several ex-Be employees went to work for Danger after the company told to Palm. Some of them moved on to Android, which was co-founded by Danger co-founder Andy Rubin and acquired by Google. Others stayed on at Palm, but ended up joining Google after PalmSource (which was spun out of Palm) was acquired by Access."
Why would Microsoft allow this? The PC manufactures must have forgotten about Microsoft shutting down the selling of machines that dual boot Windows and BeOS from the factory.
It's funny how history repeats itself. Several of the core BeOS developers went work at Danger after Be was sold to Palm. Danger was then bought by Google. Since those developers had OS experience, they were put to work on a new project called "Android".
Slashdot Mirror
The manufacturer will have an EULA which absolves them from guilt
And EULA or waiver doesn't remove legal liability for negligence.
It is a collaborative effort of many people and many nations
Yes, it's a collaborative international effort and three quarters of the budget has come from the US.
What does that have to do with anything?

No. The people who mined or bought bitcoin more than a year ago have made a shitload of money.
All of the 4k TVs show native 4k video. Last year Sharp's 8k TV was jaw dropping.

No. Apparently the giant rover that NASA recently landed on Mars doesn't count because it doesn't fit the "America is lazy and stupid" narrative.
Didn't we all learn that from Dogecoin?
Still wrong.

Isn't the point to try and improve the situation?
So you only want billionaires to be able to run for office?
Plus the limit per candidate per election cycle is $5,200. So any donation over about 6 bitcoins would be rejected immediately.
What does that have to do with bitcoin based campaign donations?
You're wrong. Campaign donations have to be documented as coming from a US citizen. Citizens United was about independent PAC organizations, not campaigns.
Campaign donations are subject to federal reporting regulations regardless of what currency they use.
I took Physics 101, which is all that is required to know that. Did they teach physics back when you were in school or just alchemy?

Danger was sold to MS. I read this wrong-
"Several ex-Be employees went to work for Danger after the company told to Palm. Some of them moved on to Android, which was co-founded by Danger co-founder Andy Rubin and acquired by Google. Others stayed on at Palm, but ended up joining Google after PalmSource (which was spun out of Palm) was acquired by Access."

The point stands that some of the people who created BeOS also created Android.
A report from a Republican controlled House Committee? That's a great impartial source.
Why would Microsoft allow this? The PC manufactures must have forgotten about Microsoft shutting down the selling of machines that dual boot Windows and BeOS from the factory.

They were approved. The only two groups that didn't get approved were Liberal groups.
