I quit playing a long time ago, mostly because they kept lowering the max speed until it was too slow for me to get any credit on my bike. Hell, you can't even jog at a decent pace and get credit anymore. I understand they are trying to keep people from driving and playing, but its gotten...

Really wish I had just left my BFL miner going for another year. It may have been mining at a loss for a while, but even if I managed another coin or 2 it would have been worth it.

Oh I'm sure. To be fair, the last bitcoins I had did pay for all the Christmas presents for the kids that year (2013)

I first got into bitcoins shortly after the first peak around $32 watched it drop down to around $2 when I shut off my miners the first time. Sold off my 250 bitcoins for about $1000 when it got back up to around $4. Continued to mine for quite a while, wound up getting out when the ASIC's...

If I had treated my bitcoins as an investment and left it alone I would be sitting on over $1 million right now. I had too much paranoia with market fluctuations that I was always watching the price, buying/selling. Never had the stomach for it. That and I bought a lot of things with them...

I wouldn't trust someone to fire either at me, even if there were a 1/4" steel plate behind the book "just in case". Person could miss, could break a rib or in the case of the .50 BMG, it would likely go through the steel plate too.

Wouldn't mind if they put that factory near me. I love robotic manufacturing, programming and operating robots is great fun to me.

My wife has a LG v20 and I will likely get one soon too. Either that or another phone with a type C connector. I am also building a new desktop PC for my son soon which will have it too.

I was hoping it was full sized too, for $40 I would definitely buy one to put an actual PC in it. Would be a great base for a mod project.

That episode of Black Mirror actually made me worry... Now my worries are coming true!

Sign me up for the white one

I hope they can take them down permanently

Honestly I think you are more of the problem than you realize. If you NEED a phone to remember things, the phone is officially replacing your memory. People don't think they need to remember facts or math anymore because of technology and only getting worse as time goes on.

A genius idea to show how little Apple products change over time. The pictures will be current for many years to come.

Just a thought, I just did the math and by their justification I can only use my Internet at 100% utilization for 2.4 hours a day max. That is with my sorry ass 30meg connection. So others with faster connections can use much less. I figured max throughput at the theoretical maximum to be...
