  1. A lawyer and a podcaster. Nuff said. As the song said, "Only in America."
  2. i don't unfortunately hold any Bitcoin, but there is a wallet called Wasabi that I believe makes it difficult, if not impossible to track a user's transaction history. Here is a link to more info: https://docs.wasabiwallet.io/using-wasabi/ELI5.html
  3. I always back up and then wipe my phone or computer if I need to take them to Apple for repair.
  4. Must be a big library to fit a 747. 😀
  5. Quite difficult when he is in the news every day, using excessive superlatives to boast how wonderful, spectacular, big beautiful, genius he and his policies are.
  6. Way back around 2009-2010 when I first read about Bitcoin in the media, I remember thinking to myself, "Sounds interesting. Maybe worth having a £300 punt and just sitting on it." The only thing was, I couldn't figure out how to buy. The banks were not up on it, and there weren't all the wallets available like today. In the end, I gave up and life and work got in the way. Bitcoin's story is now history, but I was wondering. How did early adopters manage to buy their Bitcoin? If there are any here on AN, was it easy for you?
  7. Next they will be looking for a donor of a second one as a spare because the existing ones are too old. Saudi perhaps?
  8. Fit AI cameras on the BTS and they will be able to scan millions of faces quickly. By the way. isn't it illegal here to carry passengers in the back of pick up trucks? Transporting a handcuffed prisoner, with no way of protecting himself if thrown about, must be a new one from the Health & Safety Executive...if there is one.
  9. It's really too early to tell. Give it a full year for his policies to take effect. Border wall great. Cutting illegal immigration, great. But locking up many innocents (and don't tell me there aren't any), in Bukale's CECOT prison for what is likely a life sentence without due process is just plain wrong. He, as someone who is always harping on about how he was fitted up, should know better. I am not talking about the real Tren de Aragua gangsters, but others who were just grabbed for having any sort of tattoos. Alienating US allies? Too early to tell. We will have to see how this one plays out in the future. Bearing in mind any deals made DJT are not worth the paper they are written on. Taxes? He has done great for his rich cronies. Not so good for the rest. Health? Needs to do better. China? He really didn't think that one through...Rare earths anyone? The Dollar. This is not just Trump, but I think the US weaponising the USD was one of the biggest mistakes they could have made. It has led to the rise of BRICs, and I think many other nations, especially African ones will be lining up to join. And that is where all the minerals are.
  10. If it is aliens, and they see the state we have made of the planet, they will likely pass on by and keep going.
  11. The wall is one of Trump's better ideas. I wish the UK could put a wall up the middle of the English channel.
  12. He is certainly right about unchecked immigration. The social support is draining the coffers, and destroying public services.
  13. Removing so much humidity along with the air conditioning will help you feel cooler, but if you make the air too dry, that can also cause adverse effects, such as dry throat, coughs and others.
  14. It's not good enough just charging him with possession of the materials. He should also be charged with every assault and molestation. That should add up to a fair few years inside. How many young lives has the sick f**k ruined?
  15. They always seem to quote international norms when it suits them. When it doesn't, you get: "This is Thailand. You don't understand."
