And now I wish for somebody to include this into their fictional universe. If any proffesional writer reads this, pay attention!

Removing a bunch of corn syrup from our diet can’t hurt us.

The absolute strangest 6 and a half hours spent in front of the screen.

The lawyer of the Techno Viking asserts that his client had never been a public figure and that he did not want to become one.

His half naked client dancing in the middle of a busy street has a strange way of practicing his privacy.

Enjoy it, while it lasts. Chytridiomycosis is coming for them.

TIL, my house is filled with “advanced hacking equipment”.

always ask:

1. How many people would have to be in on it?

People have coped with various difficult conditions in multiple ways throughout the history, mainly because they did not have any better choice. Even suggesting their suffering is natural and shouldn’t be treated is pretty cruel.

I’d argue it’s pretty hard to care about the society when your main goal is to avoid the shadow people demanding you lick the cactus. More drugs - more people with enough time to care.

Bitmain has actually discovered and used a vulnerability in SHA256 hash function to their own benefit before. It took months, but people eventually found out.

While the situation is concerning, it’s not like there are no eyes on what bitmain is doing. These days you can reflash the software on their machines, or eve use your own custom control boards if you wish. The guys from Braiins are doing some amazing work in this regard.

I’ve had the honor to try both - shitting in a latrine, and living without the internet. If this ever becomes a choice, you can keep your fancy toilet, sir!

I think I’ve boycotted sony for one thing or the other for the large part of my adult life. Only backed down in 2021 and bought some shares. Time to return back to normal I guess.

In such case, the Nobel commitee shoud probably set higher standards.
