Agreed, except that moving coins costs money while signing something with the private key doesn't.

There is an easier way, just sign something with Satoshi's private key and no one will have a doubt that you are Satoshi. No need for all this ridiculous drama.

I can tell you don't use AI. It's frightening how good it is. Edited "good"😂

I had a Samsung dishwasher that I dumped after just 4 years because it kept breaking every 6 to 12 months. I also have a fridge that is 8 years old that cost me an arm and a leg from Samsung and I need to keep fixing it every couple of years and have given up on fixing the ice maker. Also just dispossessed of a washing machine last month from, you guessed, Samsung because the mother board fried and they don't sell it anymore, it was 6 years old. I still have a curved LED 85" TV that some how broke in the corner, for fucks sake, it's made of aluminum! Not only that, the smart TV menus are infected with ads everywhere. Why the hell did that happen? It was a very expensive TV when I bought it. I have a few Hisense TVs and they last years and are ridiculously cheap. Samsung has a beautiful design but all their products are just plain crap with planned obsolescence. Never again will I buy a Samsung home appliance.

No, but I have seen absolutely impressive Huawei and Xiaomi Android phones.

Yes, Just like those awful iphones they also make.

I don't trust them since the rootkit they installed, without my consent, on my computer when playing a music CD decades ago!

American Cars look like relics from the last century when compared to Chinese design and capabilities, that is why the American car companies do not want Chinese brands in their market because there is no way they can compete with them.

Chinese brands just arrived in Mexico and it has been a massacre for american and European brands, a lot of car dealers have been closing lately and you can see in the streets that most new cars are Chinese. The Chinese dealers have impeccable service and the architecture is impressive. Prices are 1/3 of the European cars and 1/2 of the American Cars. The only ones that might be able to compete are japanese and Korean car companies.

While this is possible for a couple of years, it is definitely not sustainable in the middle term. If that was true, then Ericsson and Blackberry would still have the biggest market cap in smartphones and GM, Ford and Chrysler would be the biggest car companies in the world.

I just can't understand defending monopolies. The question here is not what is right for apple or epic, it's what is the best outcome for the human customer.

They didn't do a bad job. The problem is that they were a bunch of fucking pussies!

Life begins at conception or it doesn't. There is no IVF without murder if life begins at conception.
