It is hashed by the previous cracker, added to the other transactions, and you have to crack it. Once you do, you hash a new one for the next block of transactions. It could be decrypting messages tho. > folding proteins Games do good things. Foldit: wikipedia.org/wiki/Foldit But the credit should go to Dr. Erik Demaine at MIT and his father, Martin Demaine, for their work on the math behind the folding and inspiring the game concept. > Burning carbon Makes the earth greener.

I think any computational process works, like gaming and watching movies, iirc. > We are baking the earth quickly enough, > aren't we? We aren't. The earth was many degrees warmer in the middle ages. There is an increase in oscillation with a decrease in temperature. We are headed into another ice age. Also, China, India, and Africa cause the most pollution. Especially the actual shit into the ocean. Something like the 10 most polluting rivers that flow into the ocean are in those countries. express.co.uk/news/world/891361/Plastic-waste-pollution-90-per-cent-rivers-India-China-Africa And pic related. > feeling foolish now Don't. You used it like a currency, which is it's intention, specifically "cash-like". You should be proud. Buy in at the dip. Put half in flux and sit on the rest. Get at least a coin or two, ten is better, so you don't have to do the sharé̩blue gig forever. Joyful Yuletide to you and your family, John.

> Marina Brown catskillmarina at gmā́il.comm > Thu Dec 21 13:03:57 PST 2017 > pride to "White" nationalists The US government classifies Hispanics as "White", so I am not sure what kind of fucked up argument you are making. "White" also includes most of the Jewish community. I am beginning to realize that you don't know shit about politics, history, or even reality. > US political parties Are private, for-profit corporations. Yet you occupy wallstreet antifa anarcho-commies support one. The one that is historically racist. > and more cops. "Democrat"-lead cities and counties, such as Chicago IL and Alameda CA, have the greatest police presence. Because they are racists who see "color" like you. Please inform yourself instead of spreading lies on this list. > anti-privacy figures on the Trump admin side. > Disgusting. Correct. The Autist Formerly Known as Julian Assange is ante privacy. So are many of the people on this list. And ante freedom. Save for "juan", "zztop", and maybe "grarpamp".

BREAKING NEWS: HISTORY BEING ERASED !
by Still 22 Dec '17

22 Dec '17

The city of Memphis sold two public parks containing Confederate monuments to a private entity Wednesday in a massive operation to take the statues down overnight. The Memphis City Council unanimously approved the sale to an unknown entity without disclosing the details of what they were voting on and within minutes Memphis police officers had deployed to the statues of Confederate Gen. Nathan Bedford Forrest in Health Sciences Park and President Jefferson Davis in Fourth Bluff Park. Mayor Jim Strickland, who signed the ordinance to sell the parks within an hour after the vote, released this statement on his social media accounts shortly after 6 p.m.: "Health Sciences Park and Memphis Park have been sold. Operations on those sites tonight are being conducted by a private entity and are compliant with state law. We will have further updates later tonight." Cranes were spotted at the Forrest statue around 6 p.m. http://www.commercialappeal.com/story/news/government/city/2017/12/20/memph… Also, Earlier this month, the city filed a petition asking for judicial review of the Tennessee Historical Commission's denial of a request to remove the Forrest statue. abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/memphis-parks-confederate-statues-sold-removal-… The city was trying to get the Historical Commission's denial of the waiver to remove the statue nullified, with the argument being that the Heritage Protection Act doesn't cover the Forrest memorial because it's not a "War Memorial". However, the remains of Forrest and his family are buried UNDER THE STATUE, making it a GRAVE. Because the statue itself is the headstone, thus part of the grave being desecrated, the demolition crew, the city officials, the police, and everyone who was involved in the act can be charged with criminal conspiracy for desecrating the grave. 39-17-311. Desecration of Venerated Object: (a) A person commits an offense who intentionally desecrates: (1) A place of worship or burial; or (2) A state or national flag. (b) A violation of this section is a Class A misdemeanor. law.justia.com/codes/tennessee/2010/title-39/chapter-17/part-3/39-17-311/ The city sold the parks to a private trust, so their argument is that it was private property so they can do what they want with it. However, the monuments themselves are protected by the Tennessee Heritage Protection Act, which is why the city applied for a waiver and was denied, so by going this alternate route it would appear the city overstepped its bounds. They're taking down the Jefferson Davis statue next. Pic related.
