you seem to think about cryptocurrencies like gold as well; an investment.
because that is what it actually is used for.
My question was about the future of them as a normal currency
That is dead and burred.
The one thing a currency needs is a relatively stable value, otherwise it is useless as a medium of exchange…ie: money.
While crypto is as stable as that bear that ate a couple of kg of cocaine.
I think of it as a ponzi scheme because that us what it has become.
They will continue to be a ponzi scam that hopeful idiots will keep losing money on.
Tiger in India.
She did nothing violent. I was watching from a tour 4wd from about 40m away. She was taking a drink on the other side of a creek for about 30s. Then lifted her head, looked at us and turned and loped up the steep hill behind her.
The effortless power of her acceleration of a body that big.
I know, I have seen them.
I was sysadmin for a Bankruptcy and Insolvency Firm for more than a decade and walked into 100s of businesses on the point of failure. Many of them could not be saved simply because their systems were so bad it was better for a buyer to buy their equipment and start with a clean sheet.
The ice cream business was going under because the partner who had been the access self starter had an argument with the others and had walked out 18months ago.
The access system ran the entire business (accounting and wages were on other programs but the db feed them data) and he was the only one who had any idea.
Shit started to go wrong and they had no idea what to do.
I believe you. I can even guess the story.
In the late 80s/early 90s a staff member (self taught in office/access) quickly threw together something at the request of a manager as a stop gap wile a new proper system was specked out.
The person learned as they went and the system grew in functionality and complexity until the term spaghetti code was a massive understatement. It became their job.
The new proper system never arrived and they have been making do for the past 30-40 years.
I ran into the same thing a decade or so ago and it was a nightmare, but it was just an ice cream franchise, not prison related
The prisoner transport system ran on MS access lol
This is just…Well, if you wrote a prison escape movie that involved accessing an Access DB to reroute a transport you would be laughed at.
Mate, you are a none track record.

True but the problem is that they see 1,000,000s of people using the free version and think they are leaving money on the table by not charging and assume ~50% will happily pay for it when the conversion rate from free to paid is usually closer to 1% than it is to 50%.
Giving something away for free then expecting to make people pay for it is always a winning strategy…
firefox and ublock, which works for me. From what I have read this is happening to chrome users.

True, but when tied to an IP address known to be used by a suspected person, it can be used as evidence.
Evidence of what?
That someone was making shit up on reddit? That is all that it proves.
It proves nothing else.
It does not prove that what was written is true.
It does not prove who wrote the comment.
Legally, not really. A username is also not a person.
This is a fishing expedition by the producers, nothing more.
From the article:
Another reason Reddit refuses to comply with the film producers’ request is that “none of the posts depicted in Exhibit A to the subpoena appear to relate to movies that we understand are the subject of" the copyright infringement claims.
The users made no reference to pirating IP owned by the producers.
There ARE things where you can’t “bias” your way out of it, things that are objectively correct and incorrect.
There are still people who believe the world is flat.
The things you believe are objectively correct and incorrect are not the same for everyone.
That is the problem,
Reality is not the same for everyone and many people believe they have the right to enforce their version of reality on others.
yep. The bigger the sub, the worse it was.
You would get some niche subs were there was some decent discussion but once one passed about 100K subscribers there would be a noticeable downward spiral.

Not surprising really, humans haven’t changed in that time.
Most people don’t want the correct answer, they just want their preconceived biases to be confirmed.
It still works
