ahoya··on A Jim Simons market mystery, solved?
He bought those companies, he didn’t found Them. Anybody can buy a car company or a rocket company if they are rich enough. The only thing he invented was PayPal, and that was not original. And it wasn’t even his idea alone.

Comes with ME disabled by default. Really unique offering.
ahoya··on StarFighter 16 inch: 4K Coreboot/Ryzen Linux laptop
It’s one of the only laptops that ship with core boot, Fully up-to-date with upstream commits to work flawlessly with their hardware. Their support has been extremely helpful, and the build quality is amazing. Fully custom hardware, which is extremely rare for Linux computers. I am just a happy customer, no other affiliation.

Practically as upgradable and maintainable/repairable as the framework. They sell all of the components separately, and this runs a fully up-to-date coreboot and even esoteric linux systems get tested on it. It is a significantly better Linux computer.

I have their latest starbook, just arrived a couple months ago and it is stellar. Covid delayed it almost a whole year, but in that time they upgraded frob adwertised 11th gen intel to 12th gen for free, quadrupling cores. It runs extremeley well with latest coreboot and everything. I considered canceling my pre-order because of the long delay, but Support was extremely quick and receptive and it turns out the trust they earned was warranted. I did a lot of research and really nothing comes close to these guys. This new one is expensive relatively, but the Starbook I have was a surprisingly good deal. No connection to them except a happy customer who can gladly recommend them.

Fully upgradable SSD and raM as well, I have 64 gigs and the touchpad is really really good.

This does not fit the definition of a Ponzi scheme.

Promising fixed, large percentage gains is not the definition of a Ponzi scheme. Also Ether in does not do this to begin with.

Is there a pricing for students or people who just want to make their videos look cool for their families and friends? Unfortunately I really like the effect but can’t afford this is a hobbyist.
ahoya··on The digital pound: A new form of money for households and businesses?
The only positive I see from this is that Britain will quickly miss use this new power, engineering social credit scores and negative interest rates and the rest of the world will see how incompatible it is with freedom and become inoculated against the idea.

In the US it is commonly held belief that the government powers must be restricted because all governments slide into corruption more quickly without.

ahoya··on Surgeon General says 13 is ‘too early’ to join social media
The people you’re describing are called morons. I don’t want my kids to work for morons.
ahoya··on Surgeon General says 13 is ‘too early’ to join social media
That’s the point. you want them to miss out. Missing out means they don’t have to be depressed and have their attention spans attacked. This online social life is unhealthy and bad for them and they will grow up retarded socially if you don’t protect them from it.

It’s not bad on modern eink. For example you can even watch YouTube on this device comfortable
ahoya··on First signs of spring have arrived in parts of south 3 weeks sooner than average
This mindset always catches me off guard no matter how many times I come across it. I can’t think of hardly anything more boring to care about than airplanes and meat and concrete, three things that probably could not change the quality of my life in any quantity in any way but superficially, three things that millions of people currently go without happily. Like what kind of lifestyle do you lead that these 3 things weigh so heavily? I happily minimize my use of all three of those things for even a small chance of making future lives better. I’m always shocked when I read how narrow some peoples spectrum of desires are.
