That's exactly why DNS verification is a overkill.

Yeah, RON hasn't moved against EUR - but the price of bread, butter, eggs, ham, cheese etc in RON (as well as EUR) has moved up. That's not pegged to prices anywhere.

The new trend in Europe is to talk about consumer price inflation (increase) when they say "inflation". What they mean is that usual stuff (food, building materials, etc) costs mor…

Not really, my savings converted to EUR gained thanks to the currency movement and then the interest - which is bigger than anywhere in the Eurozone. I am mostly interested in that…

What actually matters to an Eurozone resident is the currency movement against EUR, not the local consumer price inflation - you don't need to be a local consumer at all. These ind…

I don't get this talk about fairness? How could be choosing based on sex fair in any way, ever? I thought that's exactly the unfair thing we wanted to avoid in the modern world. Is…

Just a little bit to the south.

Czech Koruna. Every bank there offers it now. But the currency is losing against EUR right now (after it gained a lot in the past year).

My European savings account has 6% interest. Not EUR though.

Well I think I meant something in between. You don't need to be from old money to get a property in Monaco and much less in other places in EU - I got several, and I started litera…

You don't need citizenship at all. Not even permanent or temporary residency. You will become a tax resident of a state even if you have just a tourist visa. You don't need to own …

Here's how you do it if you're rich: Every European country (even Finland) has harmonized rules about "tax residency". The rules are simple: If you actually and honestly live there…

Humans, animals, plants, microbes, etc are that technology. Life is self-replicating nanotechnology machines. If synthetic biology works - and we know it does, we have already crea…

Why trolls? Maybe they just want to learn about us. I don't see the reason to assume they have godlike sensors with unlimited range - they need to come closer to see detail. Them b…

A person vouching for another person. If they vouch for a bot and it's uncovered, they and all the others they vouched for lose access forever. This creates a powerful social dynam…

To see as much detail as possible without confirming they are here. Sensors aren't unlimited, aliens would be constrained by the same physics as we are.

You don't need to be much more advanced than we are. You only need time - perhaps the alien civilization is millions of years older than ours. That would allow them to use peer-lev…

To be able to observe their reaction to unknown without confirming I am there. And maybe I don't have unlimited sensors - so I want to see as much detail as possible.

Given how big telecoms usually behave, I really don't think so. Remember the fight for usable mobile internet... Ever tried WAP and developing on it? They set the whole thing up to…

If I was an alien spaceship I'd try to stay just outside the current identification range on purpose.

It was similar from the user point of view, but it was absolutely different from creator/admin point of view. It was supposed to be a service provided by big cable/telecom companie…

Damn dude 5 pages of your comment history is just bashing Musk (most of which is inaccurate at best), lol. Get another hobby.

At least open Wikipedia before talking > In 1990, he entered Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario.[37][38] Two years later, he transferred to the University of Pennsylvania (UPe…
