I've spent time in the US and Europe, but live in Australia.

These comments about messing up their strategy are kind of weird. BMW has had electric cars (i3, i8) for longer than most automakers - low volume I know. They are up to their 6th gen of all electric drive train though, and just announced the first of the Neau Klasse architecture machines, the all new iX3.

800V architecture, 800+km range, 372km can be added with a 10min charge, sub five second 0-100km/hr (60mph) in a traditional (but kinda ugly) SUV.

I see lots of pure electric BMWs here... I've got a big 3l diesel X3 and the older gen iX3... I know which one I prefer driving, even for road trips (shame it can't tow the camper yet, but that new one probably would!).

Since it usually takes as much time to review code properly as it does to write it, what are we gaining here. I certainly wouldn't trust any AI currently available to write code without checking it carefully.

Tell you what. Install Wallet of Satoshi on your phonw, publish your lightning address here and I'll send you a few sats worth of Bitcoin.

I don't know you and I live in a different country and nobody can stop me...

I can also buy groceries at the local supermarket in the same cheap and fast way.

I should have seen that 2010 article (probably did) and looked into this interesting new technology. But, like most of you, I shrugged my shoulders and thought people putting money into it were crazy.

After several boom and (almost) bust cycles I finally realized there was something important going on, did my research and bought some.

Long story short: My retirement is going to be several times more comfortable than I expected and most of the Slashdotters that are left behind are salty as hell that they missed the start of a revolution.

We should've figured it out earlier, guys, but it's not too late.

So you're an accomplished actor and you're mostly remembered for the time they used just your voice...

Some of it is. Much of it isn't.

"financial fraud involving bitcoin, ether and other cryptocurrencies"

We don't call fraud involving traditional money "money fraud scams", so why should we call this "Crypto Fraud Scams"?

If the fraud just uses crypto to transfer the money it's not "Crypto Fraud".

Westpac, one of the âoebig 4â banks in Australia only allows a password of 6 characters, alphanumeric - no special characters. And when I say only 6⦠I mean no more, *and* no lessâ¦

What BMW did you go with? Iâ(TM)ve been really happy with mine, other than the glacial 80-100% charge speed which wouldnâ(TM)t be so bad if it had another 100km or so range (iX3).

Slashdot wasn't so negative in the early days. Problem is that only the salty nocoiners are left now.

(some of us stick around to rub it in)

If you think that the contents of an unclaimed wallet go to the exchange. They don't.

They're lost forever without hope of recovery. We call this a donation to the community because the more Bitcoin is lost, the more scarce it will become.

Google has made themselves vulnerable to this kind of action by being woke. It's their own fault. Left wing activists are never satisfied.

When our son's school switched to tablet based learning 10 years ago we immediately moved him to another school.

Other parents thought we were crazy. I figured it was an insane experiment with an unknown outcome that would affect my children (I also had a pre-schooler) during a critical phase of their education.

Safe to say, I'm glad we decided to switch back to a more conservative school.

The current ones that map are so much better than the older roombas. Totally agree their suction is lower and âoespeedâ doesnâ(TM)t matter as much, but a map is really useful.

It allows you to tell it what rooms / areas to vacuum if you only want parts done. It updates based on wherever your dog is sleep or your kids drop their shoes are just works around that. It is super satisfying if you have OCD to literally see the perfect track marks in the carpet that shows itâ(TM)s done every inch. You can also set it (at least ecovacs) to go over each area twice in a single âoerunâ.

Picks up where it finishes if it ever needs to recharge etc. etc.

It's amazing that I have to ask this on Slashdot, but...

Have you ever heard of stable coins?
