I remember hearing a story like twenty years ago about a person that figured out that serial number were disclosing payouts.

I fucking hate that the crypto currency ghouls have captured the word “crypto”. When I first read this I was wondering why in the fuck would Linus not like cryptography. My brain is old and crypto will always mean cryptography.
It’s wild how these people just can’t fathom that they are the problem.
““Civility has kind of disappeared,” she said. “Even in our party, and that’s sad.””
Lady, you realize your party did a fucking coup? Fuck off.
They should make this the default.
I hope they are ok. I haven’t heard about them in a lot time.
