It’s more probable that in reality there are a of people working without the state knowing about it. Much tourism related work is traditionally paid “under the table” in cash, by the day or by the week.

People also don’t need cheese or cake, and they have it anyway.
Right, next the native americans will take the US back because historically it’s theirs? Russia started a war, stop looking for excuses to cope.
I’m sorry, who started a land war in February 2022?
the idea that people were crushed with tanks is disputed in academia
There are photos of people clearly crushed by tanks?
How is attending a far-right convention and fucking up diplomacy with Spain state business?
If he went to a furry convention would that also be state business?
He was huge in the 80’s and 90’s amd did some big scale acts like disappearing a whole bridge and stuff like that.
The idea is not to get the power back to earth, but to have power on the moon. Without power, you’ll never have humans living there.
Yeah but a car is mostly made of engines and bolts and wheels and stuff like that, you know.
But why then are we even getting ads “not aimed at us”? Doesn’t a platform like youtube, which has access to basically all data on the google account, know us better than ourselves? Why all the tracking, only for us to be eternally bothered by stuff we’ll never buy? I’ve lost count of how many “atlas VPN” ads I’ve been bombarded with, and still no intention whatsoever of ever getting it.
The article you referred to appears to delve into the actions and subsequent consequences faced by Jimmy Zhong, a 28-year-old computer expert from Athens, Georgia. The narrative begins when Zhong reports a theft of a substantial amount of cryptocurrency from his residence, leading to an investigation unveiling one of the most significant cryptocurrency crimes in history ➊.
In 2012, an individual pilfered 50,000 bitcoins from Silk Road, an illicit dark web marketplace. The valuation of these stolen bitcoins soared over time to surpass $3 billion, marking one of the colossal mysteries within the cryptocurrency realm for many years. Nearly a decade post this heist, a grave mistake by the perpetrator enabled the IRS-Criminal Investigation division to resolve the case ➋.
Jimmy Zhong, known for his partying tendencies and also for his exceptional computer skills, was the person behind this massive theft. His downfall was linked to his report about the crypto theft, which was a cover-up, and his robust digital home surveillance system which perhaps played a part in his identification ➌.
Following his conviction in 2022, a raid on his Georgia residence led to the confiscation of approximately 50,676 bitcoins, then valued at over $3.36 billion. Zhong cooperated with the authorities and forfeited the stolen assets ➍.
This tale highlights a significant event within the cryptocurrency community and demonstrates the long-term investigative efforts that can span several years before reaching a resolution.
A Kobo e-reader. I now read much more than before because of the convenience, and I also became a book pirate. It has paid itself multiple times on the money I’ve saved in physical books.
Yeah, but is it abandoned? I’ve been having some issues lately, and there have been no updates for a while, now.
Any app that moves the camera (or thw whole world) without user input will make people sick, it’s just a law of good VR. Any app that doesn’t render at a stable 72fps+ will make people sick. Any app that simulates things that make people sick in real life, will also make people sick in VR.
On the other hand, any app that keeps a stable 90fps, that uses teleport with a very short fade instead of thumbstick movement, and that never messes with the camera position, will not make people sick.
Most people who have tried VR and have felt sick, were basically victims of awful, non-optimized VR experiences, and awful VR hardware like Google Cardboard and variants.
The “Tuscany Villa” is an ancient demo that I tried in the Oculus DK1 in like 2014 or so, and it made me sick for hours. It uses very fast continuous movement instead of teleport, and it has a set of stairs that will make you instantly throw up if you try to climb them.
It’s is perfectly possible to create VR experiences that will not make anyone nauseous, Moss being a good example.
I read this as “40-70% of VR developers don’t know what they are doing”. What needs to be done to avoid motion sickness has been known for a long while now.
There’s a very effective solution - predefined parking spaces, and after getting a scooter you can only park them in one of those predefined spaces. It works that way in a lot of european cities, and it works well. The problem is the ability to leave them anywhere, it was chaos before they implemented the predefined parking spaces where I live.
Mandated parking zones are very effective because you can’t really end the trip if you’re not on a parking zone, meaning that you keep getting charged until you park it in a parking zone.
Here you could leave the scooters anywhere for about a year, and it was nice because I could take one right to my doorstep - but my neighbours took them inside their house, and there were scooters everywhere taking up sidewalks. Around a year ago, it changed and now there are predefined parking spaces, around 50m or 100m from each other. I haven’t seen “abandoned” scooters outside of parking spaces for a few months now, and a lot of people still use then anyway.
Where I live, people in rental trucks go around at night gathering low battery scooters and unloading fully charged ones. Apparently you can make good money doing that work and recharging them.
I actually used vapes (the “real” ones) to stop smoking. It took years, but having the capability of controlling how much nicotine I had in my vape liquid was key. Eventually I brought it down to zero, and was able to stop.
This said, in europe the market is being flooded with disposable, colourful vapes - and those are an abomination. Just thinking of trashing all those lithium batteries makes me angry.
