That is cool! But no, Music for Hackers was a great combo of ambient/underground music overlaid with old movie audio samples and other stuff. Played from maybe 2000-2008 or something? Can't remember when it died.…

Love it! Been a fan for many years. Would still love to find the archive of music/sounds from musicforhackers.com from years ago. That was an epic channel.
Cool story bro! If you don't agree that's fine. Don't buy. If other people buy and have a different opinion it doesn't hurt you at all.
I did read it. Not super impressed, but glad he has the freedom to say what he wants. Yes, crypto is being manipulated and distorted by the wealthy and powerful. It's sad to see. But it's still beneficial to the average…
I think your argument is a very nice strawman. No one is endorsing an "anarcho capitalistic system" here. What we're saying is that having an alternative to fiat is some people's only hope when the government can close…
I'm referring to the comparison between Tether and USDC. Recently Tether has been flat and USDC is growing. Tether is obviously still #1 and not something I would hold as it does appear shady.…
There's so much money coming into crypto and multiple studies have looked at money coming into Tether and the effect on Bitcoin price and it's negligible. Plus, money has been coming out of Tether and into other…
Yeah, and Mr. Palmer evidently has his own political axe to grind. Good for him. Glad he can say what he wants.
Here's my rough explanation: Provisions were added into the bill that would require "know your customer" type requirements and taxation of crypto exchanges but were written so poorly that the requirements could be…
Anyone can buy crypto. Not understanding how it's only for wealthy elites. And Mr. Palmer is out of crypto. Good for him. And the solution to reign in fiat-based crony capitalism is what? I 100% agree with the premise…
Yeah, Tether isn't great. Why use that as your example? There are plenty of other stablecoins and the article was about Bitcoin.
Nigeria has a cell phone adoption rate of around 50% currently. People can trade crypto, do banking, money transfers, etc. on a cell phone. The idea that a desktop computer is required is a very old-school mindset.…
Those in power fear anything out of their control. See what's happening with the infrastructure bill and crypto as the latest example. On the other hand, us little people should support anything that gives the average…
I believe #1 is accurate. I don't believe #2 is accurate. Companies provide what people demand. If our demands change, then they will change. It's the only way.
This is the way.
Thank you for clarifying. Appreciated.
What's your answer to making a difference?
Not sure what your point was. Facts seem valuable when making individual decisions that affect the planet, especially when we wring our hands and wonder when someone else will do something to solve our environmental…
I think you're asking the wrong question. Both have heavy environmental impacts. To me the big difference is that seafood affects a natural ecosystem and species vs. farmed land animals.
Looks like farmed fish is 50%. However, they feed farmed fish wild fish apparently. Takes 5 lbs. of wild fish to grow 1 lb. of farmed fish. Hmmm... doesn't sound sustainable.…
In other news, 288,000,000,000 pounds of seafood was consumed last year. If we give a rough estimate of 5 lbs. per animal (probably a lot less than that) that's around 60 billion animals killed last year so we can eat…
"but why it would work for covid doesn't make sense" This is the way many treatments work. For example, hydroxychloroquine was a treatment for malaria, but doctors found that some patients with autoimmune disease had…
I would pay a subscription fee if someone could locate and repurpose the old playlist/soundclips from musicforhackers.com - awesome streaming music site back in the '00's.
