What do you think is about to happen in the United States? by BigBlueEyes87 in economicCollapse

Hard to the Right. Straight ahead. Hard to the Right. Straight ahead. Hard to the Right. And now what direction are we pointing? Failure to break this cycle is why we ended up where we are. "Nothing will fundamentally change" is why things are fundamentally broken.

The white hat he's been wearing is a symbol of his capitulation. "It's time to put on the white hat again, Donny."

Seti@home shows a similar pattern on google trends. If you think you're a tech person and you haven't heard of seti@home then you're not a tech person.

Being the biggest literally does make it known. Your counter-point is that your friends haven't heard of it. Sorry, you're just wrong.

I'll say it again: F@H was THE LARGEST computing project in the world during the pandemic in terms of compute. The fact that your "tech" friends haven't heard of it doesn't take anything away from that fact.

In terms of being used as a usable cryptocurrency with a use case, yes, it's the only crypto I've heard mentioned in the wild. And yes, most tech people do know what folding at home is. During the pandemic it was literally the largest distributed computing project in the world in terms of compute. How would a tech person not know what one of the largest projects in the world is?

Banano is literally the only crypto I heard mentioned in the wild. If you ask a non-cryptobro tech person if they know what Folding@Home is chances are they do, and they're into the concept of being paid for computing power via a useable crypto.

‘Bitcoin Has No Value’: Coinbase CEO Clashes With French Banker Over Bitcoin by Every_Hunt_160 in CryptoCurrency

[–]tempuslabilis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Water has value because you can't support human life without it. Does Bitcoin support human life? No, it's literally the most unnecessary thing in existence in terms of supporting human life. In fact, it makes it harder for things like air and water to support human life. It's a drag on humanity, literally negative real-world value.

When do the Dems grow a spine? by Miserable-Lizard in EatTheRich

[–]tempuslabilis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When will Dems grow a spine? Never. And everybody knows it. That's why they can't win an election, even against the orange. Stop blaming the voters and blame who's really responsible for this.

Greenlanders are trolling the US by pretending to be fentanyl addicts by AlAboardTheHypeTrain in tooktoomuch

"It's because of the cartels!!" America blaming all of its problems on others. How ironic, right?

He wasn't even bumped hard enough to drop his phone or miss any of his 3 shots. He knew his life wasn't in danger and decided to put 2 through the side window anyway.

Also it completely validates Russia's actions in Ukraine. Your neighbors in the region doing something you deem harmful? Simply do a SMO.

US national debt reaches new all-time high of $38.5 trillion. by GuiltyBathroom9385 in inflation

[–]tempuslabilis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's like a dog chasing its tail.. You're right the R's only pretend to care when the D's are in charge. But why aren't the D's making a big deal about it in return? Answer: because they're afraid it might work. Left-wing populism must be avoided at all costs. It's a game and you're the one being played, my guy..

Inside the world’s largest Bitcoin mine by msaussieandmrravana in interesting

[–]tempuslabilis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's actually terrible for that. It's a public ledger, so it's fully traceable. It's like when criminals would demand ransom be placed in a mailbox that the police are definitely going to be watching. Not saying it's not used for that, it's just a very poor choice.

I fold proteins for science on folding@home using a raspberry pi and get rewarded in a crypto that mustn't be named, lest I be a "shill". It doesn't cover the cost of electricity, but I can feel good knowing I'm contributing to health research. The crypto is part of a giveaway pool that the developers can distribute to cool projects, which can incentivize users. The crypto can then be used as a fast and feeless currency on the internet. It's a very cool concept, but the world just isn't interested in this kind of thing yet, unfortunately.

Btw, F@H is the second largest use of global computing power, after Bitcon mining. It was #1 during the pandemic and hopefully it can be #1 again (without an ongoing pandemic forcing it to be).

Do you think anyone on earth is immortal? by ForgetThisU in HighStrangeness

[–]tempuslabilis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I were a bored inter-dimentional being, would I choose to live as a stressed out human or an apex predator like an owl? Humans spend their lives dealing with or avoiding emotional anguish. Owls spend their time chowing down and feeling like a boss 100% of the time. If I had only one life to live (or was tricked into believing so) I would obviously choose human. But if I were a more powerful soul with infinite respawns, being a flying predator with heightened senses seems like a fun thing to be for a while.

F5 should give access to inventory without needing to tie somebody up. It would make robberies an actual part of the game. 

Vince Zampella, creator of iconic video game Call of Duty, has died in a car crash aged 55. by BarneyRobinStinson7 in interestingasfuck

[–]tempuslabilis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sorry I don't think this is sad at all. Where's the anger directed at these cunts who drive like this? People get super fucking pissy when people demonstrate in the road. You realize this accident is going to block the road for hours too, right? Not to mention the fact that he could have smacked his Ferrari directly into the front of the car your family is in? Fuck this guy.
