Is that… ICQ? Why?

They banned flavored pods. That’s why disposables took off. Those are banned now too, but enforcement is basically non-existent at the federal level.

Systemd-init, the core part of systemd, offersa wide range of features surpassing other init systems. More features lead to more bugs and security vulnerabilities.

This is a bad take. Many of systemd’s features improve security significantly. And having all that code in one cohesive place can’t possibly be inherently less secure than the cornucopia of init scripts we used to use.

They do. Even back in their pre-UEFI days, it was possible to flash BIOS from a properly-formatted USB drive by holding down a magic key combination at power on. But it was not exactly publicized as a supported method.

Bitcoin is deflationary. There is a hard limit on the total number of bitcoins that will ever exist. Every so often, the reward for mining a block is halved. Eventually there will be effectively zero reward for mining at all.

That might have been true a decade ago. But GPUs and FPGAs have long been obsolete for mining Bitcoin.

Mining is happening on custom silicon in large-scale operations. They specifically observed several of those large-scale operations in multiple nations and extrapolated out. I don’t see how that methodology is flawed.

Plenty of humans make those judgements about their own creations. And plenty of them get a shock when they release their creations to the masses and don’t get the praise that they expected.

I asked DALLE-2 for a “wide shot of a delivery driver in a Louisiana bayou with bagged food” and it gave me this:

That’s certainly a fascinating way to interpret “bagged food.”
