This is from 2011. Slow news day?

I saw SOFIA disassembled for maintenance when I flew out of Armstrong FRC. Le sigh. She was a beauty, even with all of her engines removed.

Is that Mr. and Mrs. Sauron?

Welcome to G/O Media, inc., where joy is forbidden and genuine enthusiasm is punishable by death by stoning.

For a better comparison, the automatic Z is 200 lbs heavier than the full-fat Supra with the inline 6. Which probably means a manual Supra, if BMW ever releases one, will also be significantly lighter than the manual Z.

Less snark, more thoughtfulness. Humor is one thing, ugly and cynical humor is another. This place has had far more of the latter in recent years.

I guess it could be real. I’ve just seen more fake Type Rs (i.e. Civic Sport hatches with Type R wings) than real Type Rs, so when I see a mismatched bumper like that, I make an assumption that it’s a body kit.

I called out Jalopnik’s biased reporting (back when they were still claiming to be impartial) and was shoved into the greys years ago.

It’s not even a Type R.

I had Dragonfall on iOS, and I’m PISSED that they stopped supporting it on iOS.

No, because the blockchain wasn’t altered in this incident. The blockchain performed exactly as it was designed to do: it record a transaction that was signed by an authorized user’s private key.

By that logic, the global economy was undermined when governments around the world had to pass massive bailouts during the COVID19 pandemic.

Pedantry is not welcome

No, I’m arguing facts, he’s arguing falsehoods.

Like I said, the blockchain wasn’t altered or changed. You can keep harping on that it was, but that doesn’t change the undeniable fact that it wasn’t. In order to bail anyone out, Sky Mavis still had to spend money to buy ETH on the open market. Which means they still lost hundreds of millions of dollars. And that…

Nope, it’s not debatable at all. The blockchain hasn’t been altered. No transactions were “reversed”. The thieves, unfortunately, still have all the ETH and USDC that they stole. It’s just that Sky Mavis had to use their own money to buy ETH and USDC on the open market in order to reimburse their users.

Doesn’t change the fact that no one “altered the blockchain.”

So someone got pissed that their blockchain investment isn’t profitable and the managers altered the blockchain directly just to keep them happy

Never understood why they brought the Insight back.
