Merry New Year !

A very very painful one, to say the least.

The French are a pretty fucked up people, yo.

Happy New Year!
don't forget to document a suitable exchange rate today.

I, for one, hope it won't crash back quite that fast...

Happy new year fam - 200k party next new years eve 

Happy New Year!

Happy new year ! It's midnight here.



My plans were scuppered (not because of COVID, but the passing of a family member) so I'm alone drinking a nice bottle of Champagne.

Here's to 6 digits for BTC/USD in 2021 !

Even the imagination recoils.

Call it a male chastity belt?

Happy new year.

I would look to Russian Flu instead of Spanish Flu, we know the 1918 pandemic was actually a flu, there's a lot of speculation that the 1889 pandemic was not actually a flu but OC43, one of the other 4 coronavirus colds.

However, it did last about 3 winters. Most recent common ancestor genetic analysis on OC43 suggests that it came from a Bovine coronvirus and it dates to approximately 1890.....

They never did get a sample of that one from the early 1890's - back then everything was the flu or 'La Grippe' as they called it in those days.

Happy New Year!

Closing in so, HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Thank you for the year that was, and cheers to the year to come.

Guesses when the corn will permanently pass the DJIA? Sometime January seems to be a lock...

Is she the CEO of something? Maybe an investment fund? Just asking. If so, I can guess how she got there.

If the Spanish Flu outbreak of 1918 has taught us anything, we're in for at least another full year of shit before things start getting better.

TBH, some things are best left to the imagination. I'll just leave it at that, for the sake of everyone keeping the contents of their stomach intact, and not spewing all over their keyboards.

The EMP from a microwave has been debunked. There is a youtube video with a insane guy with an even insaner dialect that tried it.

Here's a more extensive model comment based on a twitter thread by Jake Chervinsky https://twitter.com/jchervinsky/status/1340135041746300932

*First, The proposed rule does nothing to accomplish its stated goals. Even if illicit activity was a major problem (it isn't), this won't stop the flow of funds to bad actors or help law enforcement do its job.  The proposed rule doesn't stop VASP customers from transacting with bad guys. It just forces them to pay an extra fee to withdraw to their own wallet first.
*The proposed rule doesn't give investigators any new information. VASPs already KYC their customers & keep records of transactions.  Today, law enforcement has to subpoena VASPs to get information about customers. VASPs can, should, & often do challenge these.  This rule would force VASPs to hand over that information automatically, every time.
*Considering the FinCEN Files leak & recent hacks, government hasn't shown that it's using our information effectively or storing it safely.  Now isn't the time to expand government's warrantless mass surveillance & data collection operations.
*How exactly can a VASP obtain the name & physical address of the owner of a non-custodial wallet? How does someone prove that they "own" a private key? What about non-custodial smart contracts -- who owns them?
The rule doesn't say.
*Without a clear path to compliance, it'll be left to the discretion of regulators & prosecutors to decide if a VASP's efforts are "good enough."
When institutions don't know how to comply, so they "de-risk" by prohibiting the uncertain activity completely.
*The rule would impose huge burdens on VASPs, their customers, & society at large, perhaps infringing constitutional rights, without conveying any benefit to government in general or law enforcement in particular.

So far, the vaccines don't work like that. They don't prevent infection and spreading, they prevent covid outbreak or, at least, lessen covid symptom severity.
Classic, antibody-based vaccines would not be as effective, because the virus would mutate and the specific antibodies won't recognize the "new" virus.
It's the same with the flu. We would have established herd immunity against the flu a long time ago, otherwise.
Covid is the new flu, just up to three times as deadly plus complicated aftermath, in part of the cases. It's not known yet, who or why will suffer from severe symptoms and who and why will go through cov2 infection without symptoms, and if it will be different the next time the same individual will get infected by a mutated variant.
Too many puzzles to solve.
Science & research saying: Please stand by...


I have a feeling that i don't want to know, after we found it out...

What on earth is that thing?

Meanwhile, the Twitter scene keeps on having fun with this one: https://twitter.com/Xentagz/status/1344606082178674690?s=19

Bitcoin is scarce but stupidity is infinite
