what we would then do is work with them to get that login through tor nodes we monitor and go from there

my mothers name is janet, and she was abusive, trying to use the language is a constant reminder of the beatings and abuse I took... :( I wonder if they would take issues to rename the language such that I can use this beautiful work

does this run android? or some other ui? Is that UI and underlying system tailored for mobile like android is? I feel like android probably has a ton of work put in to take constraints of phone into consideration

I been around Matthias a long time and don't really see it. Perhaps Matthew can identify some examples that prove he's not the fragile flower he says he isn't?

New comment by moocowtruck in "Be Careful Investing in Dogecoin"

moocowtruck — Fri, 07 May 2021 12:30:55 +0000

All i have to say is..javascript was created as a meme language, and here we are. Doge has treated me well with millions of $, I'll continue to HODL. Just because it's not up to standards today doesn't mean once it becomes a stable coin it can't be improved. At this point it would be silly to not have money in the DOGE, the risk of losing a few dollars vs making a good amount of money. That sounds like an investment to me!
