   I guess it's not intensely gamified, but I have a couple friends at like 80-90% on Merlin. It's their excuse to travel and live abroad

   The space counts and has to be removed. Rathe is not a word, nor is e, so youve got to find another way.

   I think I read long ago that it takes almost 7% liquid market cap to trigger a major movement. Current market cap $800b, so if true then no, 2b wouldn't be enough. I might be pulling 7% out of thin air though, it's been a long tim

   Isn't that basically what happened with mtgox? Karpeles ended up on the hook for a dollar amount far less than the (then current) value of the crypto lost.

   Maybe look into Roblox. I don't actually know much/anything about Roblox, but I'm sure I've read about mods/games/whatever being built in it. Possibly Minecraft too.

   When was the name announced/leaked? They would have tried to acquire relevant domains beforehand, like the guy who owned meta.com (.co? .net?) and didn't even know it was Facebook wanting to buy it off him. iirc he got a pretty go

   That's interesting, will have to check that out. People have mentioned online sms, which sounds pretty much like what I need. But yeah re:Google Fi, $240/y to recieve maybe 3 sms is pretty bad imo. And unlimited is only within US.

   I'm in a similar boat. Not so much service, but I move around internationally and change sims a lot. I dont even have a sim most of the time, I'm on wifi 99% of the time. Don't want to pay outrageous fees for Google FI or the

    Also in Reamde and later Fall. I forget exactly, but i think in Reamde they flood the internet with shit, and then some years later in Fall everyone has curated echo chambers of content, such that people signed up to different streams are b

    You'd still be hitting tens of millions of apis to get their stock lists. In varying formats.

    Wouldnt this require collecting (and maintaining) an enormous database of local retailers and their stock? Including duplicates. That seems... non-trivial.

    Yup! Ultima is another great game from when they were still 'figuring out' open world games, before they became stale.

    I have a MUD open right now in another window. I still play it because despite the lack of graphics, the freedoms of player interaction are interesting and far beyond whats available in modern open world games. Attack a same side player? Su

    Same. I keep the previous episode of a show until i get the next, to remind me what shows im watching and where im up to, but typically dont hang onto anything. These days the cost of downloading something again is less than the cost of han

    Sorcerer's Stone is particularly annoying i agree. Not like philosophers' stone is an existing mythos highly relevant to the story or anything. Another that bugged me was Northern Lights -> The Golden Compass. Apparently NL was

    Just a nitpick on your homepage: link is blue on blue, had to highlight to read.

    Does that mean that there is a link between age and participants who "misunderstood the instructions, or intentionally subverted the experiment"?

    I think they're saying over or under 60 is completely arbitrary when judging only from 'random' answers. It could be over or under a month, or 1000 years, the result would still be 50/50 because the ability to create a s

    I also repeated a lot, and left out options, etc. It rated me as more random than 84% and under 60 shrug

    SEAsia too. And not just for typical social; many businesses dont have websites, just a FB page. A lot of online shopping via messenger and paid in cash on delivery, because so many people dont have credit cards.
