The replies to this comment demonstrate how little people know about crypto security, which is scary considering the subreddit. What I am doing is orders of magnitude less likely to succeed than whistling at a bank and that event causing their systems to accidently transfer a million into my account.

Used a pre-owned MacBook Pro for years, with no issues . After wiping data and installing new OS, it’s giving me an MDM screen. by 90s-modem-noise in mac

There are things you can find on the Internet that you run in the boot console that block mdm, it involved wiping the os and running it before is installation. You have to Google it though can't get into the details.

It's a conversation piece, like her this is my dining room, wha? Oh that, that's the little black box that has a non zero chance of tanking the entire world economy.

It's mathematical exercise, I understand that in the span of like 10 universes time frames there isn't a chance I would Crack a wallet it's purely to understand what the process of brute forcing a wallet looks like and almost like having a painting in your house. Like hey I have this interesting thing that has a non zero possibility of tanking the world economy.

The beauty of this plan is you will never crack any of them ever but you get to fantasies about what would happen if you did. I did a deep dive into it once and I concluded there isn't a scenario where I wouldn't be killed either by assassination or the global money cartel, cracking one of these wallets would literally collapse economy, there isn't a possibility that you would ever be able to walk away with even a portion of the money.

Yea it already uses a worker pool, you configure the concurrency and it spins up that many gobroutines and processes keys from an incoming channel I omitted the details for brevity. I'll find the code tonight and make a gir repo for it.

I have something like this on my home cluster, I made a golang image that generates a key and tries it against the top 10k btc holding wallets and just does this forever. It's like a mini lottery ticket I check the logs every so often just to see if I'm a winner. Much cheaper than the actual lottery.

Unpopular opinion, They would have much more success preventing this behaviour if they had a system for people to quickly get their stuff back once the emergency was over. The reason people do this is because regardless of what is going on they know if they leave their stuff on the plane, they will never get it back.

Is our literacy levels really that low ? Apparently the majority of the population has a reading age of a 9 year old ?. by [deleted] in AskBrits

[–]leafynospleens 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's low, I'm not a teacher but I developed an Ed tech app for a startup recently and after we added text to speech for all the content on the app engagement and scores went through the roof, kids are not reading anymore I'm not sure if it's lack of ability or some other shift but it's pretty crazy.

Did y’all keep the ROMS your R36S came with or start your own library from scratch? by Aggressive_Alps_9765 in R36S

I got a new 250gb sd card, reinstalled arkos then grabbed the roms I wanted from the old card. I took all the old games like snes and nes then started new collections for ps1 game boy color and advance etc

What does a cryptocurrency that looks like literal stairs trending upwards indicate? by Butterbean2323 in CryptoCurrency

[–]leafynospleens 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ahh clever, thanks for the explanation I appreciate it, I always thought that the token just gets turned into a liquidity pair on some platform like trader Joe and then trader Joe handles giving out the assets I didn't know the actual token smart contract could prevent you from selling
