Greece.txt is nowhere near the epic level of multi-story ownage that is Brazil.txt

G.txt is just a shithead getting dunked on for his awful beliefs, although the scene of a lily-white American advocating for free market racism to a bunch of anarcho-Greeks is funny. b.txt is like a microcosm of everything that bitcoin stands for: extreme misinformation and bad intentions leading to an ultimately nightmarish outcome that leaves ripples throughout every level of society.

both are fake if you work in terms of tawdry "consensus reality"

(as I noted in that link, local Greek anarchists tried tracking down anyone involved in greece.txt and couldn't find anyone who knew anything about it)

but both deeply and fundamentally tell the truth about these people

(also, I really want to see the sort of chud who whines about "SJWs" to try it on with Greek anarchists)

I love this promotion on bybit (a bitmex-like futures exchange).



As you can probably guess, you don't have anywhere close to a 1/6 chance for the $500 or $1k.

It's rolling 7 times and getting the $1000 prize all 7 times. For this you just have to register with your phone and email, and deposit the equivalent of $8000 with them. I'm sure it's all perfectly legit

I'm told the major casinos of Las Vegas are hard at work changing their slogans to "WIN UP TO INFINITE MONEY" as we speak

About half 14TH S9's originally (well, all originally a year ago when I started) recently a bunch of S17 Pro 50TH. My ethereum rigs are primarily all nine card 1070ti rigs, with a few nine card 1080ti rig's, some 1080's, and maybe 10% 1070's. Somewhat old pic of my warehouse

I actually use more power than just my crypto, because of my 2 cultivation licenses. The crypto is about 79,000kWh/month, which is definitely more than the cultivation facilities. I feel bad about it sometimes :(

So if you're paying more than 12 cents per kWh then you are losing your rear end, and if you're paying less, then you are making a small pittance of fake money (on the order of literally a couple hundred USD a month) that you are burning real money to get.

There is no way to turn butts into real money, only other, faker, currencies.

Note I'm counting the 12c per kWh as of the right now current price of butts, which have increased over 180% since the year began, so you've been literally lighting your money on fire before this point.

That's nearly a household amount per year...in one month

Is it honestly worth it for 9000 4000 1500 6000 per month?
