you mean like the klf buring a million pound was good for the gbp?

so bitcoin doesnt go to the moon?

i was expecting to find the nokia 9000 on this list. does this mean it was actually pc compatible?

have you considered buying some btc and send it to your family member? then they can convert it back to whatever that danish excuse for a currency is

am i the only one who expected a review of device drivers provided by tesla?

a society where people are blind to the cruelty of one half while denouncing the cruelty of the other half. that seems to be one of the ingreedience for violence. each side will justify their violence by pointing at the other side. i have seen it before - its not a very original story

it didnt go into detail about the purpose of the = / == padding. and it also didnt show in the example how to handle data that can not be devided into groups of 6 bits without bits left over. i think i have an understanding of how to do it but it would be nice to be certain. could someone address the following 2 questions in a short and exhaustive way:

- when do you use =, when do you use == and do you always add = / == or are there cases where you dont add = / == ?

- how to precisely handle leftover bits. for example the string "5byte". and is there anything to consider when decoding?

pascal was the 2nd language i learned after basic and it was the best time of my learning life. the fact that you could add inline assembler code and the early attempts of object oriented programming were amazing. it was turbo pascal 6.0 btw.

this made me think of a fun activity. ask chatgpt to come up with a new word and then google that word. sometimes the word exists in the context of a scify show or a plant. sometimes gpt just added a "se" or "us" to existing words. sometimes it changes a Z to a C but it never actually came up with a new word

whats the range of compensation?

one argument that was repeated over and over by pro fission folks was that an accident like chernobyl could not happen in a "good" country like france, german or japan. seening how one of the most technologicaly advanced countries suffered a contaminating incident that is comparable on scale with chernobyl was a shock to most germans and blew the mentioned agument away. if you were old enough to remember not being allowed to go outside as a child, to see your playgrounds demolished and the sand exchanged, you may be thinking differently about it. for decades it wasnt safe to collect mushrooms in the woods, something germans are or better were quite fond of. i am honestly not sure if its even safe today. nuclear may be safe for the most part but when it goes wrong it goes wrong in such a dramatic way that it is traumatizing.

about 5 decades to late, but non the less impressive

i am using kde neon and have a similar impression
