Gentrification of London, home of global dirty money
Just realised how many years since this album (https://diasp.eu/posts/5118058), but listening recently reminded of a verse:
...living here in a fishbowl, gentrified now, no longer a shithole...
Picture says it all

The #state of the #Bitcoin and the #cryptocurrency ...
Maybe you know my two blog articles on the subject:
1) Everything you need to know about BitCoins but hardly anyone knows.
2) How to store Data securely without Blockchain.
Important aspects like security, Ponzi scheme, scams, energy consumption, environment etc. are not covered at all.
Those who follow me know that I am not a big fan of #Bitcoins. Nevertheless, I will try to deal with the topic in a balanced and not anti-technology way. Can you please write me in the comments your opinion on the subject of cryptocurrency and please also the positive features.
I thank you in advance and try to respond to everything.

Is this now a great technical achievement or just a senseless waste of resources?
Anyway, it's the #reason why there are no cheap GPUs for #gamers to buy at the moment. Some think about how they can save a few more watts of #electricity and others waste the energy on hot air.
