What if we took the art market, where prices can be whatever, so it's really easy to launder money. Then we let people easily set up multiple accounts for wash trading. And we supported currencies held in stupidly large amounts by people who can't legally use them for anything useful.

Why does the lock, faucet and shades run on batteries to begin with? They aren't portable devices, just spend a few minutes running a damn cable and you never have to care about power ever again.
The coolest thing about this IR laser is the very cyberpunk things a hacker might do with it.
Yeah, I realize now that I'd have to do that anyway, as PTM pads are not available in those thicknesses (if the material even works well at those thicknesses).
What I should do is get some thermal putty to replace the pads, so I don't have to bother with getting and cutting the right size of pads.
I also found a PTM pad from Cooler Master on the market called Cryonamics. But it seems like a very new product. I can find no one even as much as mentioning it online. It's half the price of the Thermal Grizzly so I'm tempted to try it.
Honestly must have been a manufacturing error. Which is no excuse, QC should have caught it.
You'd think that high prices would mean the ability to have higher quality manufacturing without affecting the margin much. But I think much of that money is going to TSMC, Nvidia and AMD, with third-party manufacturers getting squeezed as well. But idk.
Really interested in trying PTM on my graphics card, but it's still too expensive. You need several sheets to cool all the components and Thermal Grizzly is the only brand I can get a hold of.
It's cool (hehe) that it's even available at regular computer retailers though.
Any url that ends in .io is pronounced as if it was Italian.
I recently played Curse of Strahd and that dude had food that had been sitting out since before he was a vampire and entire rooms full of cobwebs.
I just assumed that if a motherboard had an RGB header you could control it from the BIOS, because that's how it worked ten years ago. But no, these days you need their software, which crashes on install under windows and doesn't support anything else.
If you are lucky OpenRGB might work.
One common misconception about meditation is that meditation is and end goal, not a practice. That to meditate is to sit down and have your brain be quiet, and if you can't do that, your session was a failure.
But that's like saying weight lifting is about deadlifting your body weight, and any session you don't manage do that was a failure. That is something you might be able to do after years of training. But you start with the smaller weights, learning form and technique, setting reasonable goals, and find a practice that you can make a habit out of. Because a five minute walk every day beats a day at the gym/retreat once a year.
You are stuck with yourself for the rest of your life. So just like when you have a coworker or classmate that you don't like but must work with, you just have to get a working relationship going where you can get stuff done and not fight.
Try to not get annoyed at yourself, reward good behavior, be kind even when you don't deserve it, be the bigger person etc.
Being "fungible" means that something is functionally equivalent with something else.
For example even though every dollar bill is unique (they have unique serial numbers), they are all fungible. If you deposit $100 in the bank, then withdraw $100 later, you are not getting the same bills, maybe not even the same denominations, but you don't care because it doesn't matter.
In the digital world copies are cheap and perfect. There is literally no way to tell a copy of an image from "the original". So in the digital world all copies of something are fungible, and originals don't meaningfully exist.
NFTs try to introduce artificial scarcity to the digital space by creating a distinction between "the original" of something and the copies, by introducing a sort of chain of custody tracking system.
