IMO it's not the 8 hours that's required, it's deep sleep, that's what really rests you. I got 7.5hrs the other night, with 1hr of Deep Sleep and I actually felt like I was on the verge of death, whereas other nights on…

Whilst I would usually agree with you, your comments about being a conspiracy theorist are IMO entirely wrong, look at the history of the account, the lifespan of it, and the threads it posts on. I agree that ad hominem…
Mate, please, stop with the Blockstream FUD. Blockstream make up only 20% of commits on Bitcoin. Find another strawman. There is not a 1MB limit, the limit was lifted with the implementation of segwit, as it changed the…
And what incentive do collective groups have to do that? I struggle to understand why people would act against their own self-interests to undermine their own rights and pay. Did you know that global wage growth is…

CFMEU (Aus) used to hand out bumper stickers that said: "Is that the truth or did you read it in the Herald Sun?"
Because it doesn't work like that, you can't deny the benefits, the way they work (in Aus, it will be similar elsewhere) is with EBA (Enterprise Bargaining Agreements). Basically, the union will go into talks with…
However this hardly makes it ok to continue this sort of behaviour, the top boys manage to wrangle huge bonuses, yet when a group of workers asks for 5% per year, they're a bunch of monsters.
The majority of countries are already enacting laws/frameworks/technology that would help eventually outlaw this sort of behaviour, perhaps not explicitly, but many times implicitly. For example in Australia the govt is…

How is it right that I get downvoted for asking for someone to back their bullshit opinions up with facts? Enjoy your hyperbole.
Please explain your statement in detail with sources and facts please, I'm sure I know what you're trying to insinuate so I'm going to ask you to back your claims up with some truth.

You would hope that in 140~ years we have the power problem sorted out, if not, Bitcoin mining is probably the least of our worries.
It will be forked because they have history of forking when people "lose" funds.

Limiting those who stand a chance of pulling off the type of big wins they advertise heavily on television is rigging the market. It's manipulation, pure and simple. What they're selling is a bullshit dream that if you…
