One mans junk, is another mans treasure...I guess
A reference to Kim Kardashian's ass?

What makes you think an email is spam?
Again, you're a selfish cunt. At least let the rest of us be selfish cunts by being able to filter out your crap.
The cybercriminals target your wallet, while the nation-state targets you.
And in Soviet Russia????
Because people can filter me out anyway by not reading articles with my byline. If someone is too lazy to move their eyeball one inch down the page, aren't we being enablers by accomodating them?
FFS, you are a cunt.
Kudos. In the entire article, this might be the only comment worth reading.
(OTOH, has Hasleton really been let go?)
Was the prosecutor wearing 37 pieces of flair?
I was doing some research for a project and happened back here. Hello slashdot.
Find me on Twitter, or put dot com after my user name.
Bill Gates studied the engineering behind it? I am so reassured...
Human waste contains heaps of harmful bacteria. If I am going to drink water recycled in this manner, I'd prefer to have the engineering studied by an independant water quality professional, say, an environmental engineer? And for the output water to be studied by health professionals and microbiologists. Some long term testing on how well the product holds up as the filters degrade would be nice too. That first glass may be clean and delicious, what about the the tenth, hundredth, or thousandth glass?
The recommendation of the former CEO of a software corporation (no matter how successful) doesn't really give me that high a level of confidence in the product.
Would you rather they tested it on some poor mouse?
How about Bennet Haselton?
Wrong.

Or apropos of everything. I guess it depends on your point of view.
Now ask your grandparents the same questions.
Now ask yourself the same questions about a large amount of cash.
Insured by the FDIC (and FSLIC). And regulated. And we've known about this for a minimum of 80 years. Why is it so difficult for Bitcoin, supporters, and companies to learn lessons from the past and NOT repeat them?
It's the same as giving modern radical Muslims a pass because of atrocities commited by the Roman Catholics 500 years ago. Why are the lessons never learned? Why start from zero?
We are even talking about "If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of giants," more like standing on the toes of little people.
I'd prefer a hefe, myself.
I didn't read enough of it to know whether it was 'purported' or not, and erred on the side of caution.
But with the Dershowitz angle, I'm gonna have to read into it.
