  2. Re:Cryptocurrencies are open source on Ask Slashdot: Can FOSS Help In the Fight Against Climate Change? · · Score: 1

    No, cryptocurrencies are open source and some of them are using tons of energy to create more coins to keep the cryptocurrencies networks running, other use no more energy than banks or credit card networks.

    Once you have cryptocurrencies, only then can you exchange them for "funbux" to pay your landlord, your electric bill, your groceries, etc.

    So... after doing #DeleteFacebook we start a Facebook page about deleting Twitter accounts?

  19. Re:I'm no shill you pathetic moran on AT&T Suffers Another Blow In Court Over Throttling of 'Unlimited' Data (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    It still goes back to the difference between unlimited data and advertised speeds.

    Also, AFAIK data isn't free for ISPs either - although I did read their cost is like 1/100 or 1/1000 of what they charge us.

  20. I'm no shill you pathetic moran on AT&T Suffers Another Blow In Court Over Throttling of 'Unlimited' Data (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    It is IMPOSSIBLE to let everyone download unlimited data at 10Mbps all the time - IT IS PHYSICALLY IMPOSSIBLE.

    Also, the plan is probably called "10Mbps, unlimited data" or some shit. In my example the comma is there for a reason.

    You can hate the marketing departments all you want, but it won't change hardware limitations of the networks, whatever ISP you're using.

  21. Re:Unlimited amounts of wtf on AT&T Suffers Another Blow In Court Over Throttling of 'Unlimited' Data (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 0

    Even with throttling, it's still unlimited data.

    It's not called unlimited data at the maximum speed 24/7 as if you were the only person on the planet plan.

  22. The legislation, called the Allow States and Victims to Fight Online Sex Trafficking Act (FOSTA)

    Why isn't it called ASVFOSTA?

    And what's with "SESTA", where does that come from? Aren't acronyms supposed to be made of the first letter of each word of the thing?

    If they're going to make their own rules about acronyms, then I'm going to make my own and call this bill "FIESTA" or "SIESTA".

  23. Maybe because they feel the need to invent new words to own them and make sure older people don't understand them.

    Maybe we should call them rebranders instead of millenials.

  24. +5 million informative because you're aware that reality is different than what the SJW crowd wants
