It is time to ban Bitcoin and other crypto mining In Iceland. It is a big scandal that Iceland is wasting scarce power resources on Bitcoin mining.

I had a dream last night about ChaCha20.

> "Don't forget your quarter round."

> "Not 20 quarter rounds, 80 you nitwit!"
> ...
> "Yes, increment the counter."
> ...
> "Stop using the all-zero key."
> ...
> "An all-zero nonce isn't any better."

I've been putting it together in JavaScript, just because, so it is on my mind.

Well, I guess some people were hoping for more, but I would say justice was served. SBF is a scumbag who has hurt crypto more than anyone else in history ...

He has already been preparing his appeal, though I doubt very much he will have any success with it.

He has also been ordered to pay the $11 billion monetary judgment requested by the prosecution. This is on top of assets already seized by the government.

Stop using Brave Browser

The Brave web browser has carved out a niche over the past few years as an alternative to Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and other mainstream web browsers. Some of that has come from its marketing as a privacy-preserving web browser, and it has also been repeatedly evangelized by cryptocurrency enthusiasts.

this motherfucker, cuz #AI is the new #crypto scam:

remember when during the #pandemic #shutdowns this motherfucker was lying about #cryptominers and telling everybody to pay up 2/3/5K for their graphics cards or GTFO?
https://www.cnn.com/2022/05/06/tech/nvidia-sec-settlement-crypto-mining/index.html

and then China and other Asian countries cracked down on miners & the prices dropped like a lead balloon?
https://gizmodo.com/chinas-crypto-crackdown-could-help-usher-in-a-return-to-1847140576

then magically miners pivoted into AI data hoovering centers?

pumptranslations, to linguistics

If you want to translate something into a language you don’t know for free and achieve the best quality, I would recommend using DeepL for machine translation and then asking ChatGPT to “review” or “refine” the text. This method can produce readable, good-looking texts. However, they usually contain multiple inconsistencies and mistakes, and you can’t be sure they convey the intended meaning and respect all the details.

In a document labeled “these are all random probably bad ideas that aren’t vetted,” convicted fraudster Sam Bankman-Fried considered going on Tucker Carlson’s show to “come out as a republican” and “come out against the woke agenda.”

It's really f***ing happening! I'm mining with my own ASIC! 👍 😂 , albeit hosted in a data center due to much more favorable electricity price ... Right up until yesterday, I was just a GPU miner. Starting today I'm also a Bitcoin miner ... 😎
