    What if some people did go to the party in alternate timelines?
    Or what if the act of going to the party created alternate dimensions?

    Bitcoin is not the only game in town. Transaction fees in Dogecoin, for example, are about half a cent at most.

    Square still relies on credit cards.

    As for checks, you expect someone with a kickstarter/etc to ask every backer to send him a check?

    Anyone know of any benefit related to cryptocurrencies?

    I can get a project funded without having PayPal/Visa/Mastcard/etc hold my funds "because reason".

    But climate change is about average temperatures, presence or lack of gases in the atmosphere, etc. And it's all in the same closed system.

    Fuck you, not everyone can afford the solid form of coke. Some of us have to buy our coke in liquid form and even then some of us prefer pepsi.

  14. Correlation? on Extreme Winter Weather In the US Linked To a Warming Arctic (theverge.com) · · Score: 1, Interesting

    The study, however, only shows there might be a correlation -- not a direct causal link -- between the warming Arctic and severe winters in the U.S. And it doesn't show how exactly the two are connected, so it doesn't really add much to what scientists already knew, according to several experts.

    Wow, really? It's all happening on the same fucking planet. There, I explained it.

  15. Got a reply from you!

  16. Well, here's hoping that Apple's new low-cost entry-level MacBook uses one of their own A12 or whatever. Lower price and better security, maybe?

  22. Re:Theft or Mid Air Collisions might be interestin on Coming Soon to a Front Porch Near You: Package Delivery Via Drone (wsj.com) · · Score: 1

    Avoiding collisions is relatively easy if all delivery drones follow specific height ranges for west-to-east travels, east-to-west, south-to-north and north-to-south.

    But we all know Amazon, UPS, DHL, USPS and others will NOT be cooperating like that, so yeah, expect mid-air collisions.

    I'm curious why don't people have stuff delivered to them at work? I mean some things might be a little risky, but I get car parts delivered to my work all the time.

    It might work for you, but I work in a sex shop and it would be really awkward to receive a delivery of spark plugs while I'm trying to sell dildos to bored housewives.
