DIE ALREADY!!

I hate to tell your this but his mother lived to 106…

Not a surprise, the good old days for each person is pretty much always when they had the most autonomy and the least responsibility.

That has been true of every decide for at least a century.

Can I assume you were a teenager/early 20s in the 90s?

The big thing people over look when considering the we are broadcasting thousands od watts into space, they might hear use is SNR

Signal to noise ratio. (the more random stuff on a frequency the harder it is to read the signal)

Yes, humans are pumping out a huge amount of radio (etc) signals into space. it is not coherent or directed.

Thousands of antennae all over the world pumping different signals but from far away, they are all noise interfering with each other.

IIRC: Even if there was a radio telescope only a few light years away, all they would see pointing directly at earth would be static.

Exactly. In the UK version he was not an angry, shouty cunt. That was added for the US show.

It’s as if people think The Rock was actually the heel he played in WWE or Anthony Hopkins is actually a cannibal who kills and eats people.

Give them advice about how to do it to someone else.

The vast majority of people (i include myself in this) will fuck it up in some way and end up harming themselves. If you seek to destroy someone’s life and you don’t actually end it, you leave behind someone who has nothing left to lose and is highly motivated to find who is responsible.

If you destroy someone’s life they may end yours.

This isn’t a science post, it’s a political agenda post.

It must be awful to live in a place where scientific study into human well being is political.

It sounds like some undeveloped country where you can’t drink the tap water.

It can never be a currency as the values fluctuate so wildly it is useless as one.

you seem to think about cryptocurrencies like gold as well; an investment.

because that is what it actually is used for.

My question was about the future of them as a normal currency

That is dead and burred.

The one thing a currency needs is a relatively stable value, otherwise it is useless as a medium of exchange…ie: money.

While crypto is as stable as that bear that ate a couple of kg of cocaine.

I think of it as a ponzi scheme because that us what it has become.

They will continue to be a ponzi scam that hopeful idiots will keep losing money on.

What are you posting that you are worried about?

Honestly. You are just not that interesting. Neither am I.

You have hundreds of comments here and I can read them all.

But I didn’t bother. You are not that interesting. (nor are the vast majority of humanity, so I am not singling you out here.)

If you don’t want people reading your posts and comments. Do not post or comment.

Did you read the comment you replied to or did you just spit out this pre-packaed reply that addresses nothing the original comment raised?

Simply put.

We wouldn’t notice anything.

Our perception of the world would be based only on the compute cycles and not on any external time-frame.

The machine could run at a Million Billion hertz or at one clock-cycle per century and your perception of time inside the machine would be the same.

Same with low ram, we would have no indication if we were constantly being paged out to a hard drive and written back to ram as required.

Greg Egan gave a great explanation of this in the opening chapter of his Novel Permutation City

Got a followup?

No?

Didn’t think so.

Were you expecting a reply while you typed the comment?

Headline:

One of Japan’s largest tech companies just launched its own cloud storage service

It is as realistic as that other nature documentary, Sharknado.

Nah, that will come 3 months later when to keep providing a world class service they will have to discontinue the free accounts.

But don’t worry, they will give existing customers great upgrade deals.

unlimited file transfers, unlike competitors.

Looking into my crystal ball…

I give this 2-3 months before file transfers are limited due to multi-terrabyte daily transfers from accounts hosting pirated media.

But why are incels also generally hated upon?

Your previous sentence answered your question.

Their belief is all women are trash or men are superior.

There is nothing wrong with being an adult and not being sexually active.

Making your sexual situation become your whole personality and using the obvious regret they feel about it as a springboard to justify hate against others is not.
