The first link leads malicious ads/malware. On iphone says viruses detected pretending to be apple/google

Doesn't seem worth it. Live as a fugitive, with your face publicly known, so you always have to watch your back from criminals who'd jump at the chance to extort you once they found out who you are.

That seems hard to implement. Presumably the move was all based on regular transactions. You can't just say, "If we're losing money, stop it", you have to concretely specify the conditions.

He can believe the tokens are rightfully his, and still believe that authorities don't see it his way. Like if you're in Salem and know you're not a witch, you'd want to take off too and chill in no-extradition treaty countries, so you don't get boiled alive by people with different outlooks.

I like the analogy of an unsecured window. It doesn't seem to apply to a hypothetical (idk specifics of this company) purely private company in some crypto-friendly country that doesn't have any ties to the rule of law.

Iconic time clock used in the time-travel anime 'Steins;Gate'.

Wikipedia says it is "considered one of the best anime series of all time by critics and fans alike.". [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steins;Gate_(TV_series)]

Astonishingly to me at the time, the app never had a History function (as in Photoshop, list of history you could click through). I had been waiting 3+ years for it to materialize, in order to purchase it. Have since moved on to vector editors and don't see a need to go back.

*Actually now that I think about it, I don't seem to miss the lack of History in vector editors (and just use undo).

For the site on desktop Firefox, it seems you are very proud of the slider-frame, but we probably don't need to know the UI component identity :)

A 6mb mp3 downloads automatically when visited, on desktop at least, which seems pretty wasteful.

I'm willing to bet they make $100K+ every round they send these out. Everyone has to consider at least what to do with the email (ignore? accept if it's useful again? maybe just to stop getting bugged)

Seems not to work as division yields -1 (-1/1/1) and adding them yields +1 (-1+1+1).

We want clean, healthy and attractive teeth and mouths to stare at. Rather than the e.g. inter-dental mouth that triggers disgust even if realistic. Use the attractive models in the video if they have healthy teeth ideally.

{0, -1, 1}. Divide (in order): 0/-1 -> 0/1 -> 0. Add: 0 - 1 + 1 = 0

How long did it take you to make this? Looks cool, watched someone fight a chicken before the server update.

Wouldn't the pigeons avoid the tower after noticing that humans came by periodically to catch them? It seems weird that they'd voluntarily live in such a dangerous home.

Not only did I misunderstand the article, the author tops it off by calling me a dummy at the end..

Is X not X11? I read the article thinking it was that.

No, they worded it like that to avoid saying something like 'due to the weak-a** currency'.
