IIRC, bitcoin ATMs do not set up wallets for you. You still need to create a wallet, key, etc. and that is not easy to do for beginners without an exchange like Kraken. Most DNMs u…

I didn't say Monero is KYC. I also didn't say you transfer directly into Kraken. Instead, you would use at least 1 or 2 other wallets before transferring into Kraken, because that …

Hard paywall, doesn't work with archive or outline. Text available on Google cache: http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:VhqweeF...

It doesn't matter if Monero is used with KYC - transactions are obfuscated. That means the transactions can't be traced to your KYC wallet on Kraken, meaning you're spending 10% on…

>then you set things up incorrectly IMO That's precisely the problem with crypto though - most problems get blamed on the user, and not highlighted as the deficit it is for the cry…

Aren't Monero transactions completely obscured anyways? It doesn't make a difference if you using a Bitcoin ATM or transfer to your Kraken account (except a 10% fee for the former)…

>That’s funny, I wondered why Amazon order emailed sucked so hard lately. Thought it was just them being dumb. It's the opposite. Amazon wants you to click back into the store to b…

I can almost guarantee Amazon dropped the item details from their emails in order to get you to click back into the store.

That's fair but for people without HSA they should still file a claim against maximum out of pocket.

I thought the lists were a red herring for the problems with privatized healthcare - i.e. look at how complicated pricing is, not how it is being complicated by for-profit middleme…

>the adapters are large enough that there are only 4 but also small enough that making a 2x USB A adapter would be quite challenging. This was my thought as well, but they're plann…

FWIW Amnesty International has been calling out Apple's kowtowing to China and invasion of privacy for the last three years, but it's been falling on mostly deaf ears: https://www.…

This assumes that all projects should be built with the larger scope in mind. Sometimes you just need a shovel, not a Bagger 288.

Which takes quite a bit of time and hasn't been proven possible yet. Very different from an on-demand poison pill.

ZCash is controlled by a privately-owned company in the U.S., who gave themselves founder's rewards. It's also designed in a way to allow "poison pills" - i.e. those in control can…

Right? The whole "I don't understand how people can possibly think that identity obfuscation at scale is a good thing for a financial system" can be answered by, "Will you share yo…

Nothing ever _has_ to happen; that implies intent in markets. Efficiencies and user experience are better for more users on social media than email, despite it's obvious flaws. Did…

This may be a naive question, but isn't that a problem with the content reporting system itself? That it requires blanket exceptions? Popular users are going to have more false-pos…

I don't like this example because it assumes that the Whatsapp founders would have had the same billion $ impact at FB, or that FB would not have just acquired whichever app that w…

People here are saying that Carmack isn't really saying much (quantity-wise he's not) or giving their own personal anecdotes, but he's touching on information theory for imperfect …

Liability will be delegated away from the hospital and onto the service provider, same way they are with diagnostics on clinical lab equipment. Hospitals love to continue to get pa…

Anything that promotes meaningful content discovery. Everyone is projecting their need for anonymity in response to this question, but ultimately it comes down to frequency of dopa…

And not Reddit video? At least you can avoid chat.
