  4. Corrections on A Cashless, High-Value, Anonymous Currency: How? · · Score: 5, Insightful

    "Bitcoin offers anonymity, but isn't backed by any government and has seen high-profile hacks and collapses in value."

    "...isn't backed by any government..."
    Sounds good to me. Certainly true anyway.

    "...has seen high-profile hacks..."
    Bitcoin hasn't been hacked, some Bitcoin websites have been hacked.

    "...collapses in value."
    There was certainly that big bubble, but other than that it's been fairly stable. Certainly for the last many months.

  18. Re:and the camera they took it with? on Protecting Your Tablet From a Fall From Space · · Score: 0

    My point was that, like the metal rod, the camera surviving unprotected doesn't mean the iPad would have survived unprotected. That said, they probably could have spared some cash to show that an unprotected iPad would not have survived.

  19. Re:and the camera they took it with? on Protecting Your Tablet From a Fall From Space · · Score: -1, Redundant

    So did the unprotected metal rod. The camera they used is not an iPad. Therefore your point is invalid. ;)

  20. Helping? on Virginia May Help People Pay For Space Burials · · Score: 1

    A tax deduction does not mean the government is helping you pay for something. It means they're going to take less money from you if you buy a certain product or service.

  21. If they survive to meet us on What Silicon-Based Life Might Be Like · · Score: 1

    If the Gadmeer and Sekkari are any indication, non-carbon-based life seems to have really bad luck. At least they were smart enough to send out seed ships. http://stargate-sg1-solutions.com/wiki/Gadmeer http://stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Gadmeer http://stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Sekkari
