At several weeks into Trump’s second term, losing the 2020 elections was likely the best thing that could have happened. Had he won the 2020 election he would have been a lame duck from the start.

Dad advise: when you need to blow of steam with (or because of) your kids, the solution is a nerf war. Nothing like running around the house doing head shots only. Just make sure everyone has eye protection.
I feel like the comments on anything bitcoin related on arstechnica is just a pile on from /r/buttcoin.
A lot of the hate seems to be about perceived energy use. Seems like we have to do a much better job of explaining why bitcoin mining can help the grid.

If your goal is to make any bitcoin off of it, I would just put the money into sats instead.
Wasn’t he also accused and convicted of hiring hitmen?
Honestly I’m surprised I haven’t found a block yet. I had it running overnight.
