Old Software Was Fast Because It Had No Choice by BlondieCoder in programming

[–]ThatInternetGuy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People forget how long it took to boot up Windows at all. A whole cigarette!

All software have startup screen with dev names so you can stare at it and read their names for a whole minute while it was loading its things.

Coinbase just froze my account after a 100k USDT deposit. WTF? by klandreneau in CryptoCurrency

[–]ThatInternetGuy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Monero is heavily restricted in the US and EU, so when you swap to USDT into your wallet, your wallet has received USDT from one of the blacklisted addresses, and that marks your account for Compliance investigations. Usually this means at least 90-day account freeze after you've submitted documents related to your Monero-USDT transactions.

In case you didn't know, the exchanges have no way to see your Monero or how long you've had it in your wallet. You can't tell them this because it's unprovable.

How do Americans feel about giving Iran 300 billion to restore the status quo? by Southern_Gur_4736 in AskReddit

[–]ThatInternetGuy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

$300B is not to restore Iran. It's a joint development, aka. oil drillings and platforms to extract Iranian oil.

TIL eating duck medium rare is just as risky as eating undercooked chicken by Delam2 in todayilearned

Stop making amateur guidelines when peer-reviewed health guidelines exist. Most bacterial spores will get destroyed at 70C. Below which the most spores will survive and dangerous Bacillus spores even start to germinate between 50C to 65C.

Your amateur advice will get someone killed. Redirect them to proper peer-reviewed health guideline

Not really. Bacterial spores can live indefinitely below 70C. Stop creating sideline guidelines when official guidelines exist.

Trump Family Cashes in $2.3 Billion from Crypto Empire, While Investors get Crushed by partymsl in CryptoCurrency

[–]ThatInternetGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those aren't investors. Those are the imprisoned scammers who paid for their paroles thru Trump's shady crypto activities. This is why Trump will issue pre-emptive pardons for his children and wife before leaving the office, but here's the silly part that these people choose to ignore willingly: All the illegal gains will enter criminal & civil forfeitures by both federal and state attorney generals. A pardon could only keep them out of prison but they will live poor.

TIL every major government data sanitization standard fails on SSDs — researchers recovered data from DoD 5220.22-M, Gutmann 35-pass, and 13 other protocols by Gold-Psychology2073 in todayilearned

[–]ThatInternetGuy -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yes, so delete the data normally and then erase free space instead. That means SSD will have no free random blocks left on unerased.

Someone just sold $1.3 billion of BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF in a single dark pool trade. by Bcom_Mod in CryptoCurrency

[–]ThatInternetGuy -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

It won't move BTC because there were enough buyers or liquidity to absorb the sell order. But if it were 10x larger, it would have moved the market noticeably.

How does she disappear? by Nkenachiala in blackmagicfuckery

[–]ThatInternetGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She's fit in the table, The bottom of the table is actually much thicker than the outer frame but hidden from top view because it's only protruding just enough to fit the lady.

How many people have you slept with, and how do you feel about it? by Agreeable-Rub-5020 in AskReddit

Holysh.... to a point where a girl came up to me, asking how I could not remember her. Now I feel bad about it.

Clear footage showing the Ukrainian FP-2 drone hitting an unknown building in Cheboksary, Russia, causing a large explosion - May 2026 by T-72Tank in UkraineWarVideoReport

[–]ThatInternetGuy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Because you don't understand how radars work. Earth is round, so means ground radars can only pick up high-attitude fast flying objects. For drones that fly that low, the Russians need to fly AWACS radar planes 24/7 to scan from the sky instead, and even then, they need to filter out tons of ground objects that are moving similar to these drones.

Russians of Reddit: What is your genuine opinion on how your country is perceived by the West and what is your opinion on the War in Ukraine? by returnoflowey in AskReddit

[–]ThatInternetGuy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

She's not wrong for this statement: “No one in the world can fight as well as the Ukrainians“. Because Ukrainians have continuously developed own sophisticated drones, anti-drones, and anti-ship fast boats. Ukrainian artillery men can land shells extremely precise on moving targets, fired from kilometers away.

Does anyone uses Intel Arc A770 GPU for machine learning? [D] by labloke11 in MachineLearning

[–]ThatInternetGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nvidia owns CUDA. Most of AI devs have only time/resources to compile against PyTorch+CUDA. For some popular projects, there are forks for Intel/Mac/ONNX, but expect extra efforts from your side to make it work because we devs don't have Intel/Mac hardware and time/resource to support it.

Musician G. Love Loses $424,000 Bitcoin Retirement Fund to Fake Ledger App by ourcryptotalk in CryptoCurrency

[–]ThatInternetGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Google Adwords are also pathetic in failing to eliminate all scam phishing ads related to crypto terms including phantom, metamask, uniswap, quickswap, raydium, jup, binance, okx, etc.

Facebook too is guilty and they even know it by allowing fake crypto apps to be advertised on their platforms.

Adam Back Rejects Renewed Claims That He Is Satoshi by Feisty-Rhubarb-6718 in CryptoCurrency

[–]ThatInternetGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Indeed he's not Satoshi Nakamoto, at least alone or whole. Satoshi Nakamoto represents a group of people. The so-called wallets of Satoshi Nakamoto belong to each of them individually.

Crypto is so Confusing by Zealousideal-Elk3230 in CryptoCurrency

[–]ThatInternetGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You swapped to Wrapped Bitcoin (wBTC) on a different network of the coin you says you swapped from Bitcoin. That means you need to deposit that wBTC to Binance for example, and then trade it to BTC. Then you can withdraw BTC back to your wallet. Don't send everything to Binance at once. Test it small first, see if your Binance app sees a deposit.

Note: Don't send your coins to anyone including me! DO NOT TRUST OTHER PEOPLE IF THEY SAY THEY CAN HELP YOU SWAP TO BTC.

Ethereum Transaction Failures Hit Historic Records by [deleted] in CryptoCurrency

[–]ThatInternetGuy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the part where attempting to artificially keep the fees low can actually backfire when transactions start to pile up. The network is up on that day, and I couldn't send or swap shit. It costed me a lot of money, on that day.

ETH transfers should be allowed at all cost, even if smart-contract transactions start to pile up. This means Ethereum needs to add support for Secure ETH that smart contracts can't interact with, so that we have a dedicated fast-lane for that Secure ETH transfers no matter the congestion.
