hydrogen is MEANS not a goal.

hydrogen as energy carrier, not as transportable commodity.

hydrogen energy storage is literally dirt cheap. no compression required.

soviets killed(in one way or another) 61 million of their own citizens between 1917 and 1987. current russian putin government officials said it was "only" 22 million. 2WW EXCLUDED https://www.hawaii.edu/powerkills/USSR.TAB1.1.GIF permalink: https://web.archive.org/web/20070208110446/http://freedomspeace.blogspot.com/2005/04/how-many-did-stalin-really-murder.html Tuesday, April 26, 2005 How Many Did Stalin Really Murder?

Israeli "network traffic monitoring hw used by law enforcement" was deployed in one European country and after few years of deployment public officials embarrassingly confessed that, device was not capable of monitoring IPv6 at all XD just sayin. people expect things working but even west devices are embarrassingly nonsensically flawed. Huawei / zte etc stealing sourcecode and blatantly copying it is even worse situation because they do not even understand how it should work. XD

90% of IDS, spyware, ADVERTS does not support ipv6... That is why most of (public) internet is not on IPV6

And what is most embarrassing is that truly fully IPV6 capable internet requires less of and lower powered "routers". "routers" will cost single thousands instead of hundred of thousands adn be more capable, speeedier. DDoS mitigations are easier in ipv6 too. And if every customer can have 2^64 IP (or even 2^56) addresses then you do not need "ports" anymore, every service on your server can have their own IP, or even every service customer can have their own ip address how much will that simplify CODE (source of bugs, of latency, of unnecessary payments) and lower energy requirements of login infrastructure ? and debugging ? also just right from bat you can trivially see on upstream router who is initiating DOS... PKI+IPv6 is gift from GODs! If your certificate is not issued for specific ip then "openssl" can drop connection in that instance. Is not that little bit more secure ? faster? less clunky. and with more oversoght for network "manager" ?

I love any packet which has length field right after destination field. makes processing little bit faster.

(linux + KDE) i save 24% by using black (#000000) everything, backgrounds, full theme, contrast control setting in firefox etc. on notebook with OLED screen. also if possible not using Chromes / safaris youtube video player but downloading of a video makes huge energy savings. (and using MPV in linux or properly configured PotPlayer in windows. VLC or default MS video apps are bad at energy saving.)

And we are talking about 15+ hours of actual office work in webbrowser + little bit of python math. so add 24% on top of that... that is literally weekend worth of work on one charge. current generation of laptop CPUS is insane.

just XOR two photos from your iphone and pick middle part of that... you can even sha512 that.

Maybe Subkey generation ?

Maaan, i stopped paying attention to bitcoin after Bitcoin Cash fork fiasco. Everything flew back into my consciousness. eth DAOHACK fail. Website, listing all possible BTC private keys. (de)Dusting. Printing signed transactions offline into QR codes on thermal paper... Good old days.

I am not sure BTC is still worth the hassle, most of hashrate is inside of USA (70+% =>51%...). most of BTC holdings is in USA... btc saga will end soon and badly in my opinion. BTC Cash made me pessimistic.

In Europe they have SEPA Instant Credit Transfer which allows people inter bank transfers in under 15 seconds. All KYC, all legal, all gov approved, gov regulated, all without fees to btc exchange / VISA. BTC does not even makes sense anymore. Technological innovations flew right past the BTC.

i am not even sure BTC infrastructure is quantum safe, blockchain "is", but i doubt rest of infrastructure is...

I hate lies, i hate manipulations.

Sothebys will be paid in multiples of what that video cost to make. How did you come up with opposite ? Most auction houses take 10- 30 % of price. So youre saying that this computer will cost less than 30k at final price ?

Also, Apple Computer was founded in 1976. But there were already "home" / personal computers sold from other companies for half of decade already. Or you can say that Apple employees did not built Apple-1 computer with already available intel 8008 CPU. Apple employees at that time were not innovators, they were marketers and solder monkeys.

Yes wikipedia is edited by public, and it is confusing on purpose. Apple has billions of dollars, so marketing department got paid to increase confusion on wikipedia articles for all apple products.

By charting computer history on timeline, you can see Apple-1 computer was nothing exceptional. It was just another random kit.

Apples push to sell to gullible teachers was toxic marketing strategy, which worked. So peoples exposed to this brand of computers in schools had emotional attachment to this brand. Yes apple targeted children. Not in China, in USA.

USA is in war with china right now. Companies and governments have different priorities in war.

exactly! using your phone which knows when you are going to toilet, and shares that with advertisers, for "super secret communications" ? makes no sense.

(YES APPLE DOES THAT TOO)

Chill. It is just NSA backdoor. (joke)

BTW most common "self made crypto" misconfiguration is not discarding 0 byte data .... so just scanning for that you can get at least 10 000 sites in just US.
