gjs278··on Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Is Absolutely Right About Racist Algorithms
when I went to school a poor black kid stole a portion of my lunch every single day in 2nd grade (stupid policy that you had to leave your lunch on an unattended desk, he knew which bag was mine and took the granola bar.) my parents moved me to a catholic school which had basically no black kids. the bullying was still there but nobody ever stole from me or really anyone else. no fights basically ever.

we move, I go back to a more diverse school. fights, my graphing calculator stolen... what’s the possible benefit of having poor people in your school? until social programs make it so my lunch doesn’t need to be stolen to feed a kid, I fail to see how the non poor students are better off.

gjs278··on On whether changes in bedroom CO2 levels affect sleep quality
well it would have helped if they explained it or knew why. they just “felt” those things. if I knew it’s because co2 was building up and it can make you dizzy, i’d open the window
gjs278··on Guess the most expensive domain name
these are pointless to guess. anyone can put up a domain name for large amounts of money and never get a buyer. it should be based on actual sold prices.
gjs278··on Supporters of Mexico’s Soda Tax Targeted with NSO Exploit Links (2017)
the wikipedia article clearly states that there was no proof he did it and it even says in the opening paragraph that it’s a lie by the US govt

anyone who changes their lifestyle as the result of a faulty, voluntary DNA test deserves whatever consequences that happen
gjs278··on REMME – A blockchain-based protocol for issuing X.509 client certificates
ark is a coin. dpos is an alternative to proof of work. you get paid by holding the coin. merged mining is from 2012, it’s when two coins use the same algorithm so you can mine both at the same time, securing both chains
gjs278··on U.S. Now Says All Online Gambling Illegal, Not Just Sports Bets
untrue. many of these sites have been active for nearly a decade and operate with crypto currencies just fine.
gjs278··on REMME – A blockchain-based protocol for issuing X.509 client certificates
>painfully slow

you can send coins securely with Ark in less than 8 seconds

>use obscene amount of energy

not in Ark, or any other DPOS

>be vulnerable of 50%+ attacks

what is merged mining, DPOS, renewable energy? the world may never know.

gjs278··on AMD Radeon VII: High-End 7nm Vega Video Card
it pushed computing/cooling/energy performance forward and it's not bad for the environment.

>Iceland, which is another hot spot for Bitcoin miners, makes use of 100 percent renewable geothermal and hydropower energy sources. The clean energy researcher explains that in this case, the energy demand for miners is almost irrelevant to the health of the environment.

gjs278··on Windows file access performance compared to Linux
raid1 a compresssd ramdisk to your OS drive and everything basically is instant
gjs278··on DragonFly BSD 5.4
ramnode lets you do custom isos and since it is KVM they are pretty good for this. I run it on the smallest instance too with 1gb of ram and 2gb of swap.
gjs278··on DragonFly BSD 5.4
I run my website https://garyshood.com on it
gjs278··on US Border Officers Don’t Always Delete Collected Traveler Data
uh huh. I don't believe you. it would be trivial to name the company right now. and the police are not stupid, it would be exceedingly easy to investigate this.
gjs278··on The EU Copyright Directive: What Redditors in Europe Need to Know
the EU says I owe them 10 trillion dollars. I have no assets in the EU. what next?
gjs278··on The EU Copyright Directive: What Redditors in Europe Need to Know
lol come and take it. I don’t live in europe and you’ll never be able to enforce any of your fines.

then you’ll never get to go on the scooters

only 90% of people can figure out how to drive. you’ll be ok
gjs278··on OpenBSD on a Laptop
doubtful. the command key does not need to exist. every other operating system gets along fine without it. apple is not even consistent either. as soon as you open up their terminal, you’re stuck in this bizarre land where you have to ctrl+c and cmd+c for different tasks. linux splits paste into either a mouse click or shift+insert to avoid all this.
gjs278··on OpenBSD on a Laptop
the problem is with your previous operating system, not ours. I wish I could flip the mac laptop to not use that command key.
gjs278··on Boise and Reno capitalize on the California real estate exodus
what do you think?
gjs278··on Notorious North Korean Hacker Group Has Stolen a Fortune in Cryptocurrency
they have computers. they can read google and other generic exploit websites just like you. what more do they need? cryptocurrency exchanges are probably not the most secure, they just scan, social engineer, and wait for exploits to be publicly announced for certain coins.
gjs278··on I Pay for News; Why Do I Still See Intrusive Ads? (2017)
if you don't click the ads, they barely make anything
gjs278··on I Pay for News; Why Do I Still See Intrusive Ads? (2017)
basically nothing. if you never click the ad you are making them a fraction of a cent each view. I doubt one person would even make the site a dollar after a lifetime of reading.
gjs278··on The Complicated Financial Lives of Freelancers
