As was already linked above, yes.

Amazing series if anyone hasn't seen it.

It's like you didn't even read the series.

Legit answer: It's the best selling on-going comic of all time, and for good reason. The author has an incredible knack for writing, comedy and world building. At first it all seems quite basic and irreverent, but as the story progresses it not only becomes more involved and compelling, but you start to understand that more and more of what happened before is actually deeply significant to the overall story. I think it's up somewhere around 1000 named characters in the series now, and the majority of them are actually very well written no matter how short their appearance is, with many continuing to have a place in the grand narrative.

Yea, seems like a fun and quirky feature, but unfortunately I don't think there's anything big tech companies can do at this point to turn things around with public opinion given how utterly egregious their other sins have been (and continue to be).

It's pretty easy to find. Has the exact same name. There are several versions right on Youtube.

It's obviously not a comprehensive guide on how to cheat the system. I'm making the point that computers will never be secure under the current paradigm when there are massive and powerful actors with vastly greater resources than the average person. I strongly suspect that an org like the DoD (which had exclusive access to integrated circuit technology for three years before anyone else) could probably capture/spoof virtually the entire network if they wanted too.

Again, how many ordinary people will continue to run a node for a network where they have nothing for an extended period? Even if they do, will the value of the coins remain even after such an event proves the weakness of the system?

Ignoring the fact they definitely have the resources to sustain it, how many people will continue to run a node after losing everything to such an attack? How will anyone reclaim real world value if they exchange the coins for something else?

I found some of my favourite bands by downloading mislabelled songs on limewire.

They actually made a half decent movie based on the short story too if you're interested.

NSA isn’t hurting for money

If you can figure out how to teach those sorts of people to say "no, I think I've actually got enough already" then please let me know, because I've been wracking my brain trying to solve that one for a while now.
