The intro to the article...

"It's also estimated to be worth around $700 quintillion—enough to give each of the 7.6 billion people on Earth about $92 billion each. You read that correctly—$92 billion each. "

Sure. That's what would happen if we mined the whole thing. It wouldn't just drop the gold etc. prices to near zero. Everybody would have at least $92 Billion.

Gold shorts inc?

I'm under the impression that learning new things with age should make things better, not worse. After all, you're keeping your brain active. On the contrary, by learning nothing new you're basically waiting for it to degrade.
Same reason becoming physically inactive in retirement doesn't seem like a great idea.


Edit: Thanks for the new hat!

What are you willing to eat in case you're incorrect?

I think Amazon has a sale on ropes my friend.

Store Of Poop of Transacting Poop To Booty?

Don't think I've ever heard those acronyms.

MSM branding anyone as rich and/or out of touch is just hilarious.

Would those things be more secure than using your normal (or dedicated) internet connection?

Who is to say that bubbles don't follow an exponential trend on some scale (beyond the usual market cap shenanigans)? More humans, more money (thanks CBs) faster communications, faster and larger bubbles.

Inb4 Bitcoin goes to >>10m per coin in the most frenzied bull run in human history. Then it crashes back to some sensible levels. And then it'll come out as the global reserve currency.


Now that would be a fun ride. And not entirely implausible either, albeit only with an ε probability of playing out.

Those fingers aren't real are they?

Sounds like you deserve less back pains if you choose to follow through. Sure would be nice if you got to skip the walk/ride though.

Completely irrelevant to what you've posted.

You've essentially demonized half the United States and implied that none of their concerns matter.

Which is also quite hypocritical given how you insisted that others should be heard and helped (which I by the way, unlike apparently you, agree with).

Here we have a demonstration of the exact same kind of generalization that lead to Trump being elected president.


You're not very far from being the left-wing equivalent of the two referred to in the tweet with that kind of attitude by the way. Not using foul language and acting nice doesn't change the content or intent of your words, and agitating others directly or indirectly isn't any more commendable than the actions of those two twats are.

Our last argument clearly showed this as well. I initially assumed you were dispassionately arguing points, but you exceedingly reveal yourself as overly emotional and irrational.

Perhaps you may want to consider sticking to drawing charts instead of throwing even more gasoline on the dumpster fire that is politics.

You still engage in selective reading and cherry picking. Not sure taking you off the ignore list was the right move. Posts in response to you seem like a complete waste of time.


My post.

Fair enough, I never allowed miners to interrupt my sleep. I'd rather lose some money than my sanity.

I do remember frying one of my cards some 5-6+ years ago, which put me off from trying again for quite a while. Completely forgot how much of a PITA mining used to be compared to nowadays.

Battery farmed meat tastes like nothing. It's almost exclusively water.

If you care about taste you care about animal welfare by transitivity, as free ranging and a proper diet directly translate into tastier meat.

There's a reason why a steak of Iberico pork tastes as if it was fried in nut oil, namely because they've been eating nothing but nuts throughout their whole life. Similarly, animals that ate the garbage that they are fed in battery farms without ever getting to move around taste like garbage.

And once it comes to lab meat there won't be any limit to taste experiences that could be crafted that were never before possible, e.g. mix and matching different types of meats and adjusting their flavour profile as if the animals were fed certain diets will become a thing in due time.


There is no argument for battery farms other than cost and profit.
The cost argument doesn't hold as lab meat is ultimately going to be cheaper by so many orders of magnitude that not funding it can't be called anything but retarded. And the profit argument, well. Should people and animals suffer so some twat can make a few more dollars?
It's pretty clear that battery farms are a net negative today, more people could be fed without them, they make animals suffer throughout their entire lifetime, they fuck the environment, the produce is shit tier, they make humans sick and/or immune to antibiotics, etc.

Are 2080 Ti worth it cost/performance wise (relative to other cards)?

And what do you mean by managing a miner? Did you run into repeated problems in the past?

I set my farm up and then never really touched it again until running costs exceeded mining revenue. Took out a GPU here or there to fix some of my own and family/friend computers, but that was about it other than very rare instances of updating drivers to improve hashrate.

If my miners weren't disassembled and in another geographical location I'd be setting them up for GRIN, just because why not. Don't think I would specifically invest in miners for this though, not with Bitcorn at/near bottom and with GRIN still far from its inflation induced bottom.

"I promise to pay the bearer on demand"

Never going to happen.

The problem isn't eating meat either, the problem lies in the draconian conditions in which most animals that are raised for human consumption live.

This is partially countered with true free range, which costs more (as it should, supermarket meat is too cheap). And the problem is fully countered with lab grown meat, which is just around the corner.

If you care about animals buy meat, eggs and dairy from suppliers that let their animals live naturally without restrictions. That funnels money away from battery farming cunts and supports animal welfare by providing genuine farmers with more funds.


This is what vegetarians and vegans should really be doing (unless they genuinely hate the taste of meat), as it would clearly signal the markets to invest into animal welfare over cutting costs by any means available. The end destination of this path is real meat with no bloodshed.
Meanwhile the end destination of veganism is the near complete to complete extinction of life stock that can not possibly live in nature as there would be no incentive to raise it.
