  1. Bitcoin is more immutable than pork bellies. Pork bellies can rot if not consumed quickly. Bitcoin will be around forever and can't be destroyed and nor can 21 million ever be produced. This sets it apart even from gold. This is why people invest in it although part of the reason they choose bitcoin is that it was first. Bitcoin isn't going away but it's value can. Why can an oil painting be worth so much? Because people believe it will appreciate in value in the future. This is exactly the same motivation which drives bitcoin. The huge mistake people think about bitcoin is that if they can't see it or touch it then it can evaporate. That simply isn't the case.
  2. The 10 Worst U.S. Presidents 2. Donald Trump Born: June 14, 1946 Presidential Term: Jan. 20, 2017 - Jan 20, 2021 The only living president among the 10 worst presidents in history, Trump is also the only president to be impeached twice. https://www.usnews.com/news/special-reports/the-worst-presidents/slideshows/the-10-worst-presidents?slide=10
  3. On link to anywhere credible that these indictments are prompted by the white house. That's all I ask. Can you? The white house has denied any interference in the justice dept.
  4. So, no link to your exceedingly unlikely claim? Biden has not done anything that can remotely be construed as "let them all in policy".
  5. OP was clearly not using video cards.
  6. This is why you are on my ignore list. Nothing much to say but trolling.
  7. What did Trump do to stop the flow? Are they bringing covid? Are the Chinese sneaking across the border without visas in significant numbers? Link please, I don't buy it.
  8. He didn't. Tens of thousands of Chinese with green cards entered the US after he "stopped" air travel from China.
  9. In my defence I wasn't listening too carefully. I was more engaged in reading what the CDC had to say.
  10. Has that happened to you? I think hackers try to access bank accounts with hits by the millions every day. What has happened to me is the bank disabling my card when trying to deposit to my online broker after several successful deposits in the weeks prior and not giving me online access to it to request it be unblocked until I called them which involved an international call and a wait of over half an hour to get a person to answer. Infuriating.
  11. Trump's reaction to the pandemic killed his re-election, not the pandemic itself. A decent president with half a brain would have listened to the experts and acted accordingly. Trump claimed the epidemic would be over by Easter and that injecting bleach would get rid of it. Not to mention numerous other egregious lies and pseudoscience.
  12. Jack Smith could charge Donald Trump with espionage after latest revelations A little over a week ago, The Washington Post reported that among the things former President Donald Trump was doing with the documents he took from the White House was showing them off to people visiting him at Mar-a-Lago. Trump was already in hot water for having the documents and spending a year refusing to give them back. What this adds to the piece of the story, reporter Michael Schmidt explained, is another piece of Trump's "intent." https://www.rawstory.com/donald-trump-documents-espionage/
  13. Dominion believes their company and reputation have been irreparably damaged by the lies and accusations made against them. The judge overseeing the $1.6 billion defamation lawsuit by Dominion Voting Systems on Wednesday sanctioned Fox News, handing the ballot-machine company a fresh chance to gather evidence after Fox withheld records until the eve of trial, a person present during Wednesday's court hearing said. Delaware Superior Court Judge Eric Davis said he would also very likely tap an outside investigator to probe Fox's late disclosure of the evidence and take whatever steps necessary to remedy the situation, which he described as troubling, the person said. https://www.reuters.com/legal/us-judge-imposes-sanction-fox-news-withholding-evidence-defamation-case-nyt-2023-04-12/
  14. Run an S3 file server with min.io with large capacity spinning HDD drives with high redundancy. Like this https://www.westerndigital.com/th-th/products/internal-drives/data-center-drives/ultrastar-dc-hc550-hdd#0F38527
  15. I had the computer repair shop opposite Big C Extra on Pattaya Klang clean my ASUS PN51 for 600 baht. They had to remove the MB to do it. I bitched about the price so the guy took me to his workbench and showed me the degree of difficulty. I've never had it overheat or black screen even when compiling apps and the fan runs faster. .
  16. If the raids did his indictment certainly didn't. Maybe you believe that because Trump ciaimed it? “Dropping like a rock”: New poll shows Trump falling into “fringe candidate” territory after arrest Support for former President Donald Trump fell rapidly after he was charged with 34 felony counts of business falsification in Manhattan last week, according to a new ABC News/Ipsos poll. Despite Trump's repeated claims that the indictment could actually help him by boosting his support in the election, the poll found that a majority of Americans — 53% — believe he did something illegal. The poll also showed that 11% say he acted wrongly but not intentionally, while 20% believe Trump was not culpable at all. https://www.salon.com/2023/04/11/dropping-like-a-rock-new-poll-shows-falling-into-fringe-candidate-territory-after-arrest/
  17. Correct me if I'm wrong but any time I plug my phone into something other than a charger, my phone asks me if I want to allow that machine to connect.
  18. His popularity hasn't increased. It's decreased. Links have been provided to polls which show that. Even Senate republicans don't want him to run.
  19. Trump has dime store lawyers who are prepared to risk being sanctioned for the money I presume. They react to whatever trump wants them to do. They have to be such. Some of Trump's lawyers have already been sanctioned and some have faced a grand jury.
  20. I would agree that people shouldn't necessarily change their mind if he's indicted but it's up to each individual. If he's convicted, that's another matter. I would have serious problems understanding why someone would want to vote for someone who's been convicted of a felony.
  21. LOLZ! Former President Donald Trump is suing his ex-attorney Michael Cohen for $500 million, claiming "multiple breaches of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, conversion, and breaches of contract by virtue of Defendant’s past service as Plaintiff’s employee and attorney." https://www.rawstory.com/trump-sues-michael-cohen-500-million/
  22. Biden isn't running against a pumpkin. There's one (1) nomination for the presidential election at present.
