in the time it takes my work windows laptop to get from a login screen to a usable desktop, with the cpu idle, I rebooted and signed in to my linux desktop, and performed a restart. Several times.

nah man, gotta be more specific. When those stuff work on every application.

A screen reader protocol for blind people that requires the app to be recompiled and opt-in to being accessible to accessibility tools, is not a replacement for one that worked for every application. Old apps will become impossible to use for some people with accessibility issues. Though wayland fanboys would tell you to shut up and be happy that a protocol exists, while failing to acknowledge that the protocol is literally fucking useless by design.

the problem that bitcoin "solves" is mathematically unsolvable. The only reason it kind of works is because participants are human, and therefore are able to assign arbitrary value to the currency, and therefore can act greedily to try to maximize (and protect) their coins. Participants are only incentivized to participate in mining because the thing they're rewarded with is a "currency" (something they value, as humans).

For anything but a currency, what is the incentive of miners using their resources to handle your transactions?

there's the small issue of proof of stake being subjective...

and multiplying by i twice means you rotate 90 degrees twice. So 180 degrees. Multiplying by i twice means multiplying by i^2 = -1.

So multiplying by -1 is a rotation by 180 degrees

in maltese (the one at the bottom center) it's just "sorm".

"Toqba tas-sorm" means "asshole"
