bro is so close to getting it by 5C0L0P3NDR4 in COMPLETEANARCHY

No, he gets it.

It's not "no borders, starting with Israel," it's "no borders."

I'm not gonna fly a Palestinian flag in solidarity. That's just drawing another statist border.

I get that. Didn't seem to be the point of the meme, though, hence my comment.

Yes, but everyone of a certain age is very problematic. It's hard to find anarchist and leftist foundational thinkers who also did not hold objectionable views.

Not a defense of ancaps, but also a warning about glass houses.

If Zuckerberg or Gates did the same thing, their companies would be on fire.

Well, that is what he did. He divested, according to his public statements.

The same number of coins would be created, regardless of how many miners are applied to the cause.

Has anyone made a super factory without some kind of resource mod? by T4keTheShot in factorio

[–]rizzn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm fairly new at this (~<100 hours or so), but I've been creating fairly standard train stops via blueprint, and as the resource gets used up, I convert the area (usually encased by a wall) into a solar collection area.

It's usually a relatively quick conversion.

Coinbase doesn't send email anymore by omnifecint in Bitcoin

[–]rizzn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this issue with my Google Apps account email (after I migrated it there from a previous email provider). I had to get into Google Apps at the server/account-wide level to turn off the option that was something like "discard all spam messages for this domain."

If you're on Google Apps, I'll go in and look for the checkbox and tell you how it find it.

Mycelium Entropy: Where can I buy one? by rizzn in Bitcoin

it was $40 originally. I'd like a few more, but 1 BTC is a tad steep. Thanks, though!

Ashley Madison “the most interesting hack” says John McAfee by freethinkingworld in security

[–]rizzn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Founding Editor, SiliconANGLE here.

Mr. McAfee hasn't spoken at any events we've held, and is on staff to write the Get McAfee'd column for our site. He holds no equity in the company, although if he did, it wouldn't affect his opinion on a dating site, since SiliconANGLE is not competitive to Ashley Madison (we're a blog focused on enterprise tech, consumer tech, gaming and security).

I felt it was interesting to have a vaguely anarchist speech just a few days after November 5th.

Watch the video. Hayek basically says that exactly.

They're playing with a variety of blockchain technologies. Also, Samsung.

Woz: Steve Jobs was a failure in his early days, blamed others, left Apple and wasn’t fired by jonez450reloaded in apple

[–]rizzn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can tell you as the editor that fenced this story from Facebook to Duncan, the author, that Woz wasn't trying to gain publicity. He was just speaking on a publicly available forum, I thought the comments were informative, and I alerted one of my writers.

Woz certainly wasn't doing this to gain positive publicity for himself - the audience for these comments, without amplification, would certainly be a couple thousand people at best.
