Microstrategy is an analytics company that buys bitcoin to pump bitcoin - they own something like 1% of the total supply.

Tether is a cryptocurrency that lets you do tax fraud by being pegged 1:1 to the US dollar, but can be exchanged in-kind for bitcoin so you don’t actually trigger a taxable event. It’s run by iFinex, a company that also runs the Bitfinex exchange. I’m not really sure that they actually have 120 billion in cash

I have no clue who actually runs these companies tho

AMD. Had horrible problems with Nvidia drivers on a rolling release distro, haven’t run AMD with one but it’s been smooth sailing ever since I switched. Running a 5600xt, plays Death Stranding at 1080 pretty competently.

The timing of the click captcha loading is randomized and it probably is looking for human-ish cursor movement? (Like you’re probably moving your hand in imperceptibly small ways that are difficult to replicate). Clicking before it loads and doing it repeatedly probably triggers detection.

IIRC in Norway they have “Taco Friday”

I wouldn’t suppose that people are required to inform steam that they’re dead. Therefore, I’d assume the easiest way to bequeath games/DLCs, etc, is to get a wishlist from your loved ones, and then gift all of those games prior to death on a credit card that you might not be able to pay, due to being dead. Steam gets the money, the CC company gets shafted. Alternately, share your credit card details with a loved one and that list, and have them order within hours of your death (this depends on whether or not you were plausibly alive when those CC transactions took place)

I’d label one “Urinals” and another “Toilets”

Here’s an explanation

IIRC the Amish and Mennonites are Anabaptists.

The 194X series that also came in the same cabinet as Metal Slug. That shit rocked

“Fish” for Catholics is a surprisingly broad category that includes amphibians, reptiles, puffins and even

EDIT: Also gravies and broths don’t count

Having a bunch of canals makes every trip longer. It was kinda annoying when I visited because a one mile trip was like 1.5 with all the crossings. Otherwise awesome city.

Isn’t this the mineral that people are proposing that we process into sand and dump into the ocean to sequester carbon?

Marx: “Societies develop their economies in stages and industrialization is necessary to achieve socialism.”

China: Develops the economy through industrialization, which means a controlled capitalist economy run by socialists

Western Leftists: “ No not like that socialism is supposed to happen through some spontaneous magic!”

You should. The Houthis are correct to block shipping as part of the moral obligation all people have to oppose genocide.

While isreal’s genocide is obviously a bad thing and the palestinians have every right to fight back

Fuck off.

Well, I feel the radiation concerns are sorta… Overblown compared to how much radioactive material a coal or natgas plant would pump out. Very excited to see how that experimental MSR out in the Gobi Desert does.

$3.10 in 1980 would be the equivalent of 11.40 or so in 2023 and a .50 Big Mac would be about 1.50.

is the employer telling you it’ll be monitored? What’s the setup, is this a “Go to the office and piss in a cup for us” or is it a “go to an actual lab”. In either case synthetic piss should work (if it looks legit and passes the test strip they just toss the sample, no follow-ups) but absolutely under no circumstances should you work for a company where another employee watches you pee, that’s a massive red flag.

Isn’t there a campaign against food waste going on in China right now
