I assume that most of the few of these that actually get made, will end up being parked on rich people's lawns as some sort of weird post-modern art meme sculpture or whatever.

ethereum moved to proof of stake sometime back. BTC and I think a few other (very) minor cryptos still use proof of work which is where the significant power usage goes. Not something I track but I believe the vast majority of non-BTC cyptos are proof of stake or something not proof of work anyway and BTC is the only one that uses proof of work and is used at all. That might not exactly be technically correct but it is in the practical realm.

If he had to worry about simple things in life like food, shelter and paying the rent perhaps he'd be a bit more grounded in what's important in life and not lose sleep over a potential problem and stop a life equivalent of shitposting on humanity. Perhaps being a billionaire should be seen as a type of mental health issue.

let's tax income above say $1M per year at 100% for his own good.

Took me a moment to realize what exodus this was referring to which I guess answers the question. I deleted my fairly old account during the AMA at the beginning and I do not miss it. From time to time I have been back for those specific things that have developed communities that do not really exist on kbin but I'll never post there again and I probably visit the R site maybe twice a month.

While kbin doesn't have everything that I hope that it would, so far I find it good and I visit daily.

So these days my only social media, if you call kbin that, are kbin and Mastodon. X, FB, insta, whatever corporate BS are all 0% usage for me now. Very occasionally I view tildes but I don't even have an account there.

Let's see.
If (voiceRecording = TRUE && BMI > 30) {
Type2Flag = "yes"
IPOValuation = IPOValuation * 1000
}

I am not sure the people who were in that hospital care that much. Both Israel and Hamas share blame in this situation no matter who's rocket it was.

My Intel Arc 750 works quite well at 1080 and is perfectly sufficient for me. If people need hyper refresh rates and resolution and all all the bells well then have fun paying for it. But if you need functional, competent gaming, at US$200 Arc is nice.

His site sounds reasonable at least.

Not that I really know anything about this but isn't this a state's rights issue? Don't states determine their own ballets? Anyway, this will be interesting to watch. I'd like to think we can't be sure of the results.

No matter how it goes, I think this will be damaging to the GOP which is fine by me. They married the criminal and I am sure there are those who wish to cut him loose and those who can't give him up.

Um, sure Vlad, that makes sense.

Wait what, a tank in a warzone got blown up? Who could have predicted something like this could have happened? Totally unexpected and I am sure no one thought this was possible before sending it in. It's almost like there is a cost to war.
