  1. Honestly, not using pronouns would be incredibly woke.
  2. Yeah guys, it isn't like a Russian agent would try and fracture NATO, weaken US global force deployment, attempt to pit America against itself and its allies, institute economic policies that would destabilize the most powerful economy on earth, repeat Russian propaganda about a war that Russia started, or give Russia everything it wants in a "peace" negotiation to end that war. What's that? That is exactly what a Russian agent would do? Never mind then.
  3. Don't worry guys, @The Original Greaser Bob says this can't possibly happen and is no big deal.
  4. I would rather the world burn than state I ever supported or even agreed with Donald fucking Trump. You sir, can kiss my ass.
  5. Turns out, the real thing might also star Steven Seagal as Russia's special counsel to the President.
  6. Fuck all of this.
  7. I don't believe combustion of hydrocarbons specifically is needed, but I understand your point. Combustion is a part of the normal carbon cycle of the planet. Your second point makes some intuitive sense, but I don't think is a meaningful driver of global warming. The heat itself from burning hydrocarbons is a statistical rounding error compared to the overall change driven by increased greenhouse gases. More critically, I'm pretty sure heat from combustion on its own would be radiated into space rather than drive meaningful climate change. The extent to which it remains captured by the planet would, I believe, mostly depend on increasing greenhouse levels preventing its release to space.
  8. Why are you posting an article from 2018?
  9. I think @Captainant may be over estimating the energy use. I'm not sure I believe that the rig would be going near all out at 500w 24/7. But also you have to keep in mind that the required energy use per bitcoin has gone up over time because of the design of the system. There is also an increase in efficiency with the more GPU cores you have available.
  10. I don't think you're doing that math correctly. It looks like you're just using the energy charge. You have to include the power supply adjustment, regulatory charge, and community benefit charge. Even at the lowest energy charge tier of $.04106 per kWh, after accounting for everything else you're total cost per kwh is $.107 per kWh. That would total $1,416 for 13,140 kWh. But that would also be an impossible rate because there is no way that person isn't exceeding 300 kWh per month. I think the minimum realistic cost is probably the tier 3 energy charge of $.07525 per kWh. All in that is $.14197 per kWh and would total $1,865.48 for 13,140 kWh.
  11. This also works for dogs. Basically, do all the dog things.
  12. Unfortunately, I think any purge is going to have to be a violent one.
  13. We are doing a great job proving that.
  14. Yes. A big part of the reason for the US security blanket is not only did in bring most of the world under our sphere of influence, but it discouraged nuclear proliferation because anyone allied with us wouldn't need them (and we told them not to develop them).
  15. No. They'll be killing us when we commit troops to help Russia. It is only a matter of time at this point. We are the bad guys.
