Haha I could actually hear how that’d sound

(I know a couple finncrypt speakers)

it took me multiple passes to parse this without afrikaansbrain (or dutchbrain, for the posters from there)

hmm, is this the first case of this type of thing happening to any of the coiner griftbosses? I don’t recall seeing any earlier, but I didn’t track it too closely

lol, at first I thought this was going to be english humour about some coiner comment about how hard it is to schedule a trial in their busy ceo life, but the opener is very different to expectation

no idea, never read

the plane’s made of perspex and the wires are salt-soaked strings wrapped in liquorice strips for isolation but it’s fine, our designer signed off on it

no true scottschain

I was vacillating so, so hard on replying to this one

do continue

wow that’s a great idea, we should make one of those!

I’m not advocating for mining crypto. I understood the commenter above me to be (rudely) saying I wasn’t qualified to comment on whether this Airbnb scammer could have made the profit they claimed. (“You’re not tall enough for this ride”)

no, for running your mouth with statements that directly defeat each other

But that same commenter didn’t seem to be aware that with a mining pool you don’t have to single handedly win a block in order to make a profit.

the great thing about projection is one can imagine anything you want in someone else’s head!

It’s still wasteful and unsustainable.

oh hey, a correct take! finally

looks at thread title, looks at this comment

🤨

on brief checking: ah, (large parts of) the US uses a different ground reference (because of fucking course they do)

christ what a clown country

I’ve mined before and this isn’t how it works

Clearly that was a while ago so I’m a little out of the loop

you are not tall enough for this ride

“dogshit (with a side extremely-maybe lucky once)”?

you can only fit so much computation on some amount of power, and that’s also highly influenced by type/execution of the computation involved

the “extremely-maybe”: I’m extremely not going to bother even attempting to calculate the present statistical likelihood of being block reward winner (I can, and will, do better things with my time), but ito total computation possible from rando airbnb-miner vs structural-miner configuration it’s just super fucking unlikely

I don’t know enough to know where to start.

easy: skip even trying. you, too, have better things to do with your time

for those playing the drinking game, that’s a shot combined with a scrabble triple score combined with a jinx

are you dim? you literally replied “hey can you spend some time to give me things for free” to someone who literally explicitly made it clear that they don’t have the time

it sounds like you already have some idea of what you want to know about, maybe you should act on that curiousity! by, idunno, going to find the information? it’s not like this stuff hasn’t been well-covered spanning the space of a decade, or as though there aren’t literally companies that do this as their whole thing. nah, gonna have to be greenfields research, hard shit.

it renders as the co logo on fruitcompany hardware

although now I wanna go check the codepoint to see why it rendered as that on your side
