The number 6 is quite nice. It has a lot of factors and is also the smallest perfect number. Unsurprisingly, it shows up everywhere in a number of religions. People might easily have started with the number 6 and designed the star to go along with it. While it was harder to travel thousands of years ago, people did and it only takes one to bring back a design like this.

We can trace every script in Europe, Africa and Asia back to just three, one from Mesopotamia (3400 BC), another from Egypt (3250 BC) and the third from China (1200 BC). If writing was able to make it's way to almost every single culture on three continents, a 6 pointed star certainly can.

It's just scammers trying to cash out. They know Elon has a large (and gullible) following, many of which see him as as trustworthy and a super good business man, making them easy targets.

It ends up as the usual, a scam investment promising huge returns, but of course they just run away with your money.

It's fundamentally the same scam they use to hack accounts, posing as a rich sponsor and tricking the youtuber into downloading malware that steals their account.

Well, who's living in the house? Certainly not the wheat.

You people realize that most crypto is even less private? Every transaction ever can be viewed by everyone, forever, by design.

Sure, a crypto wallet might not have your name on it when created, but good luck buying or selling any without giving away your identity.

It's mostly that apple products are a pain to use with non apple ones. They even have a proprietary image format so something as simple as bulk copying your photos over can be a pain (each has to be manually exported through the GUI).

Doesn't everything do this? If someone gets access to your hard drive, your fucked anyways. AI chat logs are about the least problematic thing on there.

Na let's keep timezones, there useful for humans who generally want time to mean something, but lets ditch daylight savings time, all it does is make scheduling a massive pain twice a year, and messes up everyone's sleep cycle. Without it, timezones would just be a fixed offset from another, minimizing trouble.

Wrong:

f(x) = potato^3 = 3d potato

f'(x) = 3 potato^2 = 2d potato chips x3

f''(x) = 6 potato = 1d potato fries x6

You're doing it wrong, you also need to tape your phone to them. It takes a bit more lower body strength but works much better.

Yeah, I'm much more worried about someone in my country spying on me then China, like what are they gonna do from the other side of the world?
