Right now, one bitcoin equals 413.16 USD. One satoshi is 0.00000001 bitcoin, so each satoshi is worth 0.0000041316 USD. That means you need 14522 satoshi to have 0.06 USD.
If each satoshi were worth 0.06 USD, that means one bitcoin would be worth six million USD and I'd be a multi-millionaire.
Besides, all they had to do was to add something like BitPay to their list of accepted methods of payment. On their end, it's no different than PayPal.
It's not that hover states and CSS are hard, it's that starting from a final visual product of the website in Photoshop needs a lot of work to end up with sprites for the CSS sliding doors technique. The photoshop file won't have tall and wide graphics for the menus and all the states will be spread amongst multiple layers with multiple effects per layer. That's what you need to understand, cut and paste to build a different file for the required sprites.
Unless of course the graphic designer gives you a pre-made, flat photoshop file for the sprites in all the required states, in which case it's an easy job indeed.
Young Doc: No wonder this circuit failed. It says "Made in Japan". Marty McFly: What do you mean, Doc? All the best stuff is made in Japan. Young Doc: Unbelievable.
Look at a photoshop file of a website design. The graphic designer will have something that looks like the end product but you need to slice the hover states individually and finding which combination(s) of layers are needed for each state is already a challenge.
Then you need to take into account that we don't slice up graphics as navigation anymore, this isn't 1996. You need to re-build the states as sprites for the first item, the middle items and the last items, while at the same time build up the whole thing as variable-width sprites. And then you need to test all that code into a dozen browsers and fix all the problems.
Either you really don't understand the complexity involved (you're a back-end developer) or you work with extremely competent graphic designers who understand YOUR job and just spoon-feed you ready-to-slice graphics, separate from the website photoshop file.
Have you ever seen the layers of a website design? 90% of the job is finding out how to decode the graphic designer's mess to be able to output different off/on/hovering states while at the same time making sprites, etc. It's far from a one-step job.

It's funny how people keep saying transactions are being delayed, I use some faucets that can send withdrawals under five seconds.
You mean RepRap coins? They're only valid if you used ColorFabb GoldFill 3D printing filament.

What counts as "among the first companies" though? Does 5th place still count?
Intel's new Optane SSDs are so fast, you achieve orgasm even before your porn videos files are opened.
That's not true. The Mac Pro does not have an optical drive.
I think it's even more simple. It's not a public utility because your taxes don't pay for it.
Is anyone else a little scared that OCP is now something real and that it's computer-related on top of that?
Kind of like all our food in Canada is available in maple syrup flavour.
I'm guessing they're assuming that the processing power of tomorrow will make short work of the data they're storing today.

It's because I read that as "196k quarters", not "196k$ in quarters".
My mistake.
