This is the real reason they want to make it legal for kids to work again.

As someone with first hand experience growing up in the country, you could not be more wrong.

I know you guys probably already know this, but just to make it clear- just because the building was built in the 60s doesn’t mean they couldn’t have gotten a microwave and added a sign later :p

These deaths ARE happening for a reason, and that reason is the Republican party and the billionaires funding it.

Dude, he was 35 when the Dreamcast came out in North America. Hardly a “fellow kids” situation.

I have literally never been to Switzerland in my life my man, I can hardly leave a poor review lol

Us Americans don’t like it either, we would rather the company just fucking pay their employees instead hoarding money needlessly

since the server validates everything anyway

Oh you sweet summer child.

The server doesn’t validate shit, because that takes up CPU cycles on THEIR hardware, which costs them money. A huge part of kernel level anticheat is forcing YOU to pay the cost for anticheat, so they can squeeze a few more pennies out of it. And if your computer gets owned because they installed insecure, buggy malware on your system…? Well, they’ll just deny. After all, it’s kernel-level, how are YOU going to prove anything?

I’m point out establishment liberals that ARE listening to progressives, or are progressives themselves.

Because you’re cherry picking people to be “establishment liberals.”

Bernie sanders exists. AOC exists. Etc etc etc

And then the trolley cross track drifts and murders six people while the third party voter feels smug and self-righteous about ‘doing the right thing’.

The time to prevent the construction of the trolley, to prevent people from being kidnapped from their homes and tied to trolley tracks, is every time other than the election, so your election options are the ‘Not Murdering People With Trolleys’ group.

During the election, you minimize harm.

And for everything else, you push for improvements.

The time to suddenly pull a principled stance about Trolleys out of your ass is not ten seconds before your inaction kills people.

You need to care before the trolley is barrelling down the tracks.

He made $12000 off each fired employee.

What? FF14 is currently running laps around wow’s sub numbers, wow hasn’t been the most active MMO available since before bfa and the bootlicking cratered it.

In programming, this is called ‘Rubber Duck Debugging.’

The televangelists, in this case, were the rubber duck.

But you wouldn’t be able to authenticate the bank transfers- or messages- as real. It’s the exactly same situation the so-called cryptocurrencies run in to, and why all three have added signatures onto it. That doesn’t make any of the three cryptography- just something that exists better with the support of cryptography.

A cryptocurrency can exist without the signature- it’s less useful, but ‘just trust me bro’ is basically THE underpinning for first currencies since the beginning, and the source of a lot of the problems with them.

It’s not borrowing, it’s attempting to entirely hijack and replace the prefix. This is already causing a massive loss in trust of the entire field of cryptography.

As I said in another reply, just because it uses sha256 as it’s proof of work doesn’t make it crypto, as it was essentially picked out of a hat.

And for the signing of transactions, are we going to start calling bank checks crypto? RCS being renamed crypto? Just because something tangentially has some sort of cryptographic signature tied into it does not make that object cryptography or related to cryptography- it just means that it has a signature enveloping that object.

That’s like saying that you’re a English lord because you watched a TV show involving the middle ages one time. Just because a concept contains, as one option amongst many, a thing, doesn’t make that concept the thing.

The proof of work could be anything- sha256 was just something that happened to be picked. That doesn’t make it cryptography any more than you could call RCS cryptochat.

It’s called cryptocurrency because Bitcoin used sha256 as it’s proof of work algorithm for funsies, but has no actual tie to cryptography. Proof of work is not cryptography.

Cryptocurrencies have absolutely nothing to do with cryptography, they just appropriated the name.

Yeah, you enjoy your day and your strawman arguement you ‘won’ against as well.
